As Yi Yun was single-mindedly absorbing the energy from the Great Empress’s relic’s explosion, Shen Tu Nantian was approaching the gates of Hell.
In this world, few people were not afraid of death, and Shen Tu Nantian was apparently not one of them.
“Matriarch Lin!”
Beads of sweat began oozing out of Shen Tu Nantian’s forehead. They were forced out by Matriarch Lin’s killing intent.
“I can tell you all the secrets of the Great Empress mystic realm, including the experience gained from sacrificing so many Shen Tu family clan experts. But, I plead that you let the people from my Shen Tu family clan leave.”
Shen Tu Nantian intended to sign another soul contract with Matriarch Lin.
“Let you go?” Matriarch Lin sneered, “You schemed to harm Xintong with evil intentions, and now, you want old me to let you off? If old me did not guess wrongly, if Xintong had swallowed that Great Empress relic, the evil energy would greatly shorten her lifespan! By the time my Lin family knew the truth, your family would have gained all sorts of benefits, and it would have been too late!”
“And all these benefits would all be yours, Shen Tu Nantian, alone. How can I let you go!?”
“You are using the Great Empress mystic realm as a chip, so how would I know if the ‘Great Empress mystic realm’ was really left the behind by the ancient Great Empress? Maybe, it was just a mystic realm left behind by an ancient Desolate Heaven Master. There would be no way of finding a method to join Xintong’s terminated meridians up!”
Matriarch Lin expounded pressure. After all, she was a grandmaster in the Desolate Heaven technique. Although she had been tricked by the Great Empress relic, she could roughly guess the Great Empress relic’s trap.
An elixir like the Great Empress relic made of extremely pure Yang energy was definitely useful for Lin Xintong’s natural Yin Meridians. however, the dangerous potential was not easily detected.
However, as the Red-eyed Wolf was too weak, and with it swallowing the evil energy and not the beneficial portion of the relic, as such it was suppressed by the evil energy, leading it to rapidly age.
Shen Tu Nantian knew that Matriarch Lin would definitely not let him off today. He was distraught, for in this situation, the news about the Great Empress mystic realm was the only card he had that was keeping him alive.
“Matriarch Lin! This junior can swear on my life that the Great Empress mystic realm is truly extraordinary. It is definitely closely related to the Great Empress. This point can be written in the soul contract. It is just that my Shen Tu family clan does not have the ability to fully open and explore the Great Empress mystic realm! Amongst all of the Shen Tu family members present, only Thousand Hand Granny and I know everything about the Great Empress mystic realm!”
Shen Tu Nantian began to speak factually. What he said immediately shocked everyone present.
The Great Empress mystic realm had not been fully explored by the Shen Tu family clan!?
Even the Shen Tu family clan did not have the ability to fully open the Great Empress mystic realm, so what was inside the areas that were not fully opened?
There was no doubt that the more inaccessible the place was, the more extraordinary it was. The parts explored had produced the ancient Desolate Heaven Master heritage that made many people envious. There was also the extraordinary Great Empress ancient recipe that had been proven to be defective.
The places that had not been opened in the mystic realm definitely had amazing opportunities!
People were tempted. Other than the upper echelons of the Lin family, even the upper echelons of the family clans that had allied with the Shen Tu family clan were envious.
The Shen Tu family clan may not be able to enter those areas, but they might be able to do so?
Although it was unlikely, it was not entirely impossible!
That ancient Great Empress was not someone that someone like the Shen Tu Patriarch could compare with. There was even the possibility that she had long surpassed the usual definitions of the Great Emperor realm, and she had reached a higher realm that they did not understand nor have a name to.
Matriarch Lin narrowed her eyes. If there was an area in the mystic realm that had not been opened up, that would be an opportunity for the Lin family. Furthermore, what Matriarch Lin was most concerned with was finding a method to join up Lin Xintong’s terminated meridians within those areas.
The situation had progressed into a dilemma.
Matriarch Lin may be having a powerful stance now, but she too did not know how to handle it.
On one hand, she did not wish to let Shen Tu Nantian off; and on the other hand, she wanted to obtain the the Great Empress mystic realm.
“Since we have made enemies with the Shen Tu family clan, it will only lead to endless adverse consequences if Shen Tu Nantian was let off…”
