I Truly Am The Villian-Chapter 1085 - 1084 Gongyang Ce, Three Instances of Intermediate Material
Chapter 1085 -1084 Gongyang Ce, Three Instances of Intermediate Material
Xu Zimei’s speed was swift as he passed through countless caves and tunnels.
Even though the starlight was extinguished, he still remembered the position from just before.
With a few flashes, the dark shadows on the road couldn’t even touch his robe.
The further he went, the wider the tunnels ahead seemed to become.
And the hidden Witch Demons became more numerous.
Finally, when he arrived at the place where the starlight had twinkled before, he was surprised to find Bai Tihe waiting there for him.
“You’ve arrived,” Bai Tihe said with a smile.
“I knew you’d find the way.”
“Is something the matter?” Xu Zimei asked calmly.
“Are you selling your Demon Heart?” Bai Tihe asked again.
“Repeating the same thing is uninteresting,” Xu Zimei replied.
“If you want to enter the small world, I can take you,” said Bai Tihe.
“Otherwise, you’ll never leave here on your own.
This is the condition for the exchange.”
“A threat?” Xu Zimei looked up slightly.
“Not really, just stating a fact,” Bai Tihe shook his head.
Xu Zimei extended his hand, and vast Spiritual Energy surged in his right hand.
With a “boom,” the void shattered in front of him, a large section of tunnel collapsed, and he reached out for Bai Tihe.
He stepped forward, his presence suppressing, his Jing Qi surging.
Bai Tihe’s figure rapidly retreated.
“Since my friend is unwilling, then you must navigate this maze by yourself.”
Xu Zimei followed closely, laughing, “Actually, it’s not that troublesome; I can just follow you.”
Bai Tihe’s eyes narrowed slightly.
His steps flitted ghost-like through the maze.

Under his feet, it was as if clouds were rolling and spreading, rising and falling, with ripples forming over the clusters of clouds, floating unpredictably.
However, no matter how he hid, he could not shake off Xu Zimei’s pursuit.
The two chased each other through the maze for about fifteen minutes until Bai Tihe reluctantly stopped.
“My friend, you seem determined to follow me.”
“The road leads to the sky; I’ll walk it as I please,” Xu Zimei replied.
Bai Tihe frowned slightly and said, “It seems I can’t avoid it then.”
His aura began to surge intensively around him.
Like waves generating thousands of feet of turbulence, the onslaught was overwhelming.
“You are not my match,” Xu Zimei said.
“How do you know without fighting?” Bai Tihe snorted coldly.
He moved forward, his hand striking towards Xu Zimei.
Xu Zimei stepped back half a step with his right leg and clenched his right hand into a fist, colliding with the opponent’s palm.
Neither used their full strength; it was more like a probing exchange.
Mainly due to the terrain here.
With a “boom,” powerful Jing Qi dispersed between the two men.
All around, countless tunnels collapsed, nearly submerging both in the debris.
This also demonstrated the power of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Cross Array; although it seemed fragile, it was endlessly powerful, difficult to destroy with brute force.
Xu Zimei’s figure remained immovably, while Bai Tihe was sent flying backwards.
“Shall we continue fighting?” asked Xu Zimei.
“How about we cooperate?” Bai Tihe suggested.
“You intended to cooperate from the start, right?” Xu Zimei replied.
This Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Cross Array is quite special; it’s difficult to break with the power of just one person.
And when Xu Zimei had found Bai Tihe earlier, the latter could have left after extinguishing the starlight.
But he had waited there for Xu Zimei.
Whether it was the earlier chase or the current exchange, Bai Tihe had been aiming for one thing.
Xu Zimei does not qualify to collaborate with him.
……
“A friend does qualify,” Bai Tihe said with a smile.
“Why would you choose to collaborate with me?” Xu Zimei asked.
You should know that these major powers are all interconnected.
I have no acquaintance with him, and we have never met before.
“Because I don’t trust them,” Bai Tihe replied.
“This event is not simple, I can’t possibly go there with a group of people I don’t trust.”
“So, do you trust me?” Xu Zimei asked.
“I don’t trust you either, but at least we have no conflict of interest, and a collaboration between the two of us offers some kind of security.
If one of us gets into trouble, neither can leave this place,” Bai Tihe explained.
“I can accept your proposal, but you must tell me everything you know,” Xu Zimei said.
“Are you asking about the Witch Demon?” Bai Tihe replied.
“A friend possibly couldn’t have not heard of it.”
“What does the Witch Demon have to do with this Secret Realm?” Xu Zimei asked.
“We suspect this place is their main stronghold,” Bai Tihe replied.
“So, your arrival here is to eradicate the Witch Demons, your motives are so noble?” Xu Zimei said jokingly.
“Partly, but not entirely,” Bai Tihe said.
“The calamity brought by the Witch Demons once severely damaged the entire Mortal Domain, and many items were looted by Witch Demons.
The major powers that come here are all seeking relics once lost by their Sect Gates.”
“Then it seems I have no need to enter,” Xu Zimei said.
“Since you are here, wouldn’t it be a shame not to explore?”
Bai Tihe smiled and said, “We suspect Emperor Ming died inside.”
Xu Zimei chuckled and then asked, “Have you ever heard of the Xuanyuan family?”
“Why, are you also coveting the Xuanyuan Sword?” Bai Tihe asked.
“You just need to answer my question,” Xu Zimei said.
“If I knew, the Xuanyuan Sword would have been in my hands long ago,” Bai Tihe smiled and said.
“After the era of Emperor Xuanyuan ended, the Xuanyuan family declined.
They concealed their identities and survived meekly with the Xuanyuan Sword, having disappeared from the world long ago.”
Saying this, Bai Tihe chuckled again: “Although I don’t know, I do know someone who definitely knows.”
“Who?” Xu Zimei asked.
“First Mystery, Gongyang Ce,” Bai Tihe pronounced this name word by word.
“Who is that?”
“The number one diviner of Tuocang Domain, calculating heaven and earth, knowledgeable of the Holy Court above and the Netherworld below, there is nothing in this world he does not know.”
Bai Tihe said, “Even the opening and location of this small world of Emperor Ming was informed to us by him.”
“Where can I find him?” Xu Zimei asked.
“Beiluo City,” Bai Tihe revealed without any hesitation.
“However, his consultation fee is very expensive, he does not answer just any questions.
The payment for just this Emperor Ming’s small world took collective effort from several major powers.”
“I understand,” Xu Zimei nodded.
“Let’s discuss the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Cross Array, figuring out how to leave here is the immediate thing to do.”
“This Formation consists of three medium objects, ideally requiring three people to complete it fastest.
But since there’s only the two of us, I’ll explain briefly,” Bai Tihe explained.
“In the southeast, there is a stele,
in the northwest, there is an ancient tree.
Each of us should go to one place, and after retrieving these two items, meet in the northeast direction.
Then, we capture the third medium object.
Beast Bone.”
