The Devilish Immortal Chapter 172 The Truth

"Boy, there's no one here. Seize this chance and establish a covenant with our fifth brother!" White said in a low voice, making Lyu Liang feel refreshed instantly.

He nodded gratefully and began establishing the covenant with the Heaven Peeking Beast. Half an hour later, a feeling of clarity and refreshment swept over him. When he tried to infuse with the Heaven Peeking Beast, everything in front of him became clear, including the vague caves in the distance!

"Hey, boy, I told you this is a big gift! Now infuse with Black and you will see through the restriction formation at the cave entrances!" Lyu Liang nodded at White immediately.

The minute he infused with Black, he could see everything in the caves clearly! He glanced at the cave where Liu Jiahao, Feng Xiu, and the green-robed man were cultivating with their eyes closed. Then, he turned to another cave, where Yang Ying, Liu Jiawen, and Zheng Xuan were... eh?

Lyu Liang blushed and moved his eyes away hastily. Powerful as they were, they were girls who were used to cleanliness. The two of them were still young and had been born in affluent families.

They had been considerate enough to take a bathtub with them... Lyu Liang had seen Liu Jiawen changing into another dress with only a bellyband on her body. Meanwhile, Zheng Xuan had been saying something to Yang Ying, who had a curious, yearning look on her face.

"Sorry, sorry..." Lyu Liang swallowed his saliva and removed the Human-Beast Union with Black. Even so, he could feel the implications of the divine beast's eyes.

"Oh, why is Senior Tian here?" Lyu Liang changed the topic hurriedly.

White messaged in a drawling voice, "I sent Black to get him. I noticed that you can do nothing else during the year with your limited strength. Haven't you found anything wrong with this? Fatty is not here. Can you feel that?"

White's words startled Lyu Liang, who tried to call Fatty out. Unfortunately, he got no response and he had no idea when Black had gone out.

This was not all Lyu Liang's fault. Since he had the Virtual Land, the Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation, and the cave residence that had been improved by the blood-dragon woman, all the divine beasts, except for White, had new places to go.

If he was free, Black would go to Xuanli Feiwu. Golden and Ape would wander around the two secret realms and the cave residence, and Fatty would usually cultivate in the Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation and sometimes enter Lyu Liang's body to enjoy the nourishment of the hellfire.

Lyu Liang understood what had happened after thinking for a while. It was normal for Fatty to be blocked outside, as he belonged to the Demon Clan. The reason the blood dragons could come into the relic might have something to do with the environment there. After all, they were wild beasts, just like the creatures everywhere, which helped explain why they were not constrained by the 20-people limitation.

Still, Lyu Liang couldn't figure out why divine beasts could ignore the law limitation there. However, he had a good habit of letting nature take its course. The divine beasts of the five clans were such existences that it would make sense if they could break the limitation.

Lyu Liang had never expected that five of the 10 divine beasts would establish a covenant with him. Thanks to the power of the five, he regained his confidence in solving such a riddle.

Liu Jiahao walked out of the cave and seemingly headed toward his sister. As he rolled his eyes, Lyu Liang had an idea.

...

It was past midnight when Lyu Liang returned to his cave. Meanwhile, Zhu Yan just threw a glance at him silently. Lyu Liang sat right beside him to get some rest.

It was a silent night. The next morning, after breaking the limitation of the Cultivation Method, they began searching the next area as usual.

However, Lyu Liang's behavior confused everyone else.

The two squads had been searching for different directions, but Lyu Liang urged them to act together this time. It would certainly be safer.

Lyu Liang's words made sense, so they followed his proposition. Unfortunately, Lyu Liang's route startled the others greatly—he would go directly wherever there was danger.

For example, when three roads diverged in front of them and the right one had the most turbulence, Lyu Liang would go there directly ahead of the others, who had no choice but to follow him closely. It was toleratable the first and second time. However, when Lyu Liang did this a third time, Liu Jiawen cried out, "Idiot! Are you mad? Why are you leading us to the most dangerous places?"

Lyu Liang avoided a space crack that appeared in front of him, looked back and said with a light smile, "Because it's dangerous, the one we're seeking will think it's safe to hide here!"

As the others were stunned, Lyu Liang put on his Spirit Armor and stimulated his aura to the Peak of Almighty Immortal. He raised the Kunwu Sword and hacked several sword lights at the hills below. At the same time, he swung his left fist along with a giant ape-like figure pounding below.

A sound that resembled cracking rocks burst out before a blood figure soared up into the air and punched Lyu Liang directly!

Lyu Liang, who seemed to have prepared for this, put away the Kunwu Sword and waved his strong right fist at it while setting a Void handprint with his left hand.

"Blood figure!" Zhu Yan called out. The others understood who Lyu Liang was fighting against at once—it was one of the culprits who had caused the current situation!

"Ah! There's another guy! It's... Lu Tianwu!" Liu Jiawen recognized the dark-faced, black-robed man who was sitting cross-legged on the ground below the blood figure, seemingly healing himself. He was indeed Lu Tianwu, who had been wounded not long ago.

At the same time, Zhu Yan rushed down at him. The others also wanted to help, but an enormous space crack and several turbulences appeared, stopping them from moving forward.

Lyu Liang had fought fiercely with the blood figure. Just as Lyu Liang had anticipated, the blood figure's body techniques and strength had improved significantly without any oppression at night.

Lyu Liang had prepared well for that, so he even rivaled the blood figure among the turbulences and cracks.

Lyu Liang had selected this place on purpose, hoping to wipe out the blood figure and the lurking threat. If he had chosen someplace more tranquil, the blood figure might have escaped at an uncatchable speed.

He was waiting for an opportunity that would decide everything. He would be ending this tangle with the enemies hiding in the darkness here!

Because of the hostile environment, neither of the two used any magic treasure or Field Domains. Due to the spatial instability, a powerful magic treasure could be swallowed directly by a crack... The same applied to a move that might cause more terrible results, as it would require Spiritual Qi and easily attract the turbulences around.

Therefore, the two fought hand-to-hand in the most primitive way. Lyu Liang was much more confident about beating up his opponent. Although the blood figure was more robust than he had expected, he was convinced that he would win in the end.

One and a half hours later, Lyu Liang suddenly cried, "Zhao Yucheng!" The blood figure kept attacking him fiercely. Not far away, Liu Jiahao delivered a sudden, tough blow to the green-robed man standing numbly beside him.

All the people were stunned, including the blood figure, who fought against Lyu Liang like crazy and tried moving forward.

How could Lyu Liang allow him to do this? This was a chance he had been awaiting a long time! His opponent was flurried now! Suddenly, Lyu Liang raised his left hand, which had been setting handprints for one and a half hours, and punched directly at the blood figure.

The blood figure, who had been silent, cried in a harsh, fearful voice for the first time, "What is this? No! Master..." He never finished his speech, as a terrible explosive aura appeared suddenly while Lyu Liang's left hand approached him.

An earth-shattering sound burst out. Lyu Liang was thrown back through the air while the blood figure hit the ground. The blood-red fog dispersed, revealing the figure of the green-robed man...

However, judging by his aura, he was about to die.

"Two green-robed men?!" everyone exclaimed before turning to the person who had been beaten into the air by Liu Jiahao.

After performing several somersaults and splitting some turbulences, Lyu Liang besieged the black-robed man, who had just regained his footing, with Liu Jiahao.

The rest of the people also converged at once. The green-robed man's eyes were filled with ruthlessness as he panted heavily, putting one hand on his chest. His figure became fuzzy before it turned into Zhao Yucheng, who was staring around resentfully.

"How did you know? How could you know their hiding place? That's impossible!" Zhao Yucheg said with gritted teeth.

Lyu Liang found the blood figure and Lu Tianwu with Black's help, who had sensed something strange here with his sensitivity to various Bounded Domains when he had gone to find Tian.

Black had told him about that the night he had come back with Tian. When Lyu Liang had infused with Black and the Heaven Peeking Beast before that, he had discovered the green-robed man's secret. However, he had remained calm and behaved as if nothing had happened.

Suddenly, he saw Liu Jiahao come out and told him what he had found. They planned that, when Lyu Liang called out Zhao Yucheng's name, Liu Jiahao would attack him at once!

The result was what Lyu Liang had anticipated. When he called out the name, the green-robed man was stunned, which gave Liu Jiahao a chance to execute the plan. At the same time, the real green-robed man became anxious, thus helping him win the battle with a decisive blow.

No doubt, Lyu Liang wouldn't tell any of this to Zhao Yucheng. Thus, he just sneered at him.

Liu Jiahao's blow was so hefty that it gathered all the essence of the Primordial Qi. He had prepared that long before Lyu Liang had given him a hint. Therefore, he would not show any mercy to such a ruthless, treacherous man!

Zhao Yucheng seemed to have lost his fighting capability. Besides, he couldn't escape the besiegement of so many powerful figures.

Suddenly, Liu Jiahao and Liu Jiawen took action. They simultaneously called out five golden paper cranes, which encircled Zhao Yucheng and then formed a golden cover.

Only then did Lyu Liang sigh in relief and say with a soft laugh, "We have to take precautions in case you're a Man of Sacrifice. Oh yes, do you still want to disguise as another man in front of your life savior? Or is this robust man also not your real appearance?"
