"Demon Lord, what exactly have you been searching for all this time?" the High Priest asked curiously, drawing a little closer and fluttering her beautiful eyes.

"I've lost one of my Purple Gold Pipes, so I need to find it," Wu De replied, waving his hand nonchalantly as he prowled around the small courtyard, constantly sniffing the air.

The Demon Lord is searching for a Purple Gold Pipe?

The High Priest and the nearby Yuan Demon Clan People exchanged a look, their faces reflecting their mutual surprise.

In the High Priest's memory, since when did the Demon Lord start smoking? She was extremely puzzled.

Therefore, the High Priest plucked up her courage and asked, "Demon Lord, do you smoke?"

Wu De turned, glared irritably at the High Priest, and grumbled, "What's wrong with smoking? A man with a smoke feels like an immortal in paradise. You lot are certainly nosy."

The High Priest was dumbfounded, unsure what to say.

"Demon Lord, I remember when you first arrived in this world, you didn't smoke back then," the High Priest stated awkwardly.

"Can't I learn later? Can you lot give me some peace?" Wu De retorted irritably.

Seeing the Demon Lord was growing angry, the High Priest quickly shut her sensual, rosy lips.

"HAHA!"

Suddenly, Wu De burst into loud laughter. He sniffed the air a few times and chuckled, "The Purple Gold Pipe really has been here."

"Demon Lord, this should be the residence of the Gatekeeper of the Ancient Road to Heaven. However, for some reason, the Gatekeeper has disappeared," the High Priest said carefully from his side.

She was, of course, aware that the Ancient Road to Heaven had a Gatekeeper.

"So that's why I couldn't find it! The Gatekeeper stole my Purple Gold Pipe and hid it somewhere!" Wu De exclaimed, slapping his forehead.

There was a smell of smoke in the air. It was evident that the person who lived in this house also enjoyed smoking. And his Purple Gold Pipe had left a faint trace of its Super Divine Dragon Breath here, proving it was undoubtedly connected with the Gatekeeper. It was highly probable that the Gatekeeper had taken his Purple Gold Pipe and fled. After all, his Purple Gold Pipe was of such a high grade that no one in this Divine Land could resist its temptation.

This road leads to that Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon, right? Wu De thought, gazing into the distance along the Ancient Road to Heaven. He prepared to venture into the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon himself to search for it.

Upon hearing the Demon Lord's intention, the High Priest immediately panicked.

"Demon Lord, you… you aren't thinking of entering the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon, are you?" the High Priest asked, her voice trembling.

"Well, I am considering it," Wu De murmured.

THUD!

The High Priest immediately knelt at Wu De's feet, and the other Yuan Demon Clan People also quickly knelt.

"Demon Lord, please don't go to the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon! The Curse there is too terrifying. Once you step inside and are afflicted by the Curse, even a Divine King's cultivation base will stagnate!" the High Priest's beautiful face flushed crimson as she exclaimed fervently.

Wu De maintained a stern expression and said nothing. He didn't particularly care about so-called cultivation. Besides, his original body was still adrift outside this world. However, seeing these small Yuan Demon Clan People kneeling at his feet, Wu De felt a momentary dilemma.

This world is so sturdy. If my cultivation stagnates, will I be trapped here forever, unable to leave? A spark of insight flashed through his mind, and Wu De had a sudden realization. Even if he went in and found his Purple Gold Pipe, what good would it do if he couldn't escape this world? Wouldn't that be a tremendous loss?

After much thought, Wu De felt that the High Priest's words made a lot of sense. He couldn't take such a risk just yet.

Seeing the Demon Lord still pondering, the High Priest grew somewhat anxious. She gritted her teeth and said, "Demon Lord, the Human Cultivators in that part of the world, the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon, have pitifully weak cultivation bases; they don't even have a True God among them. If you wish to find your Purple Gold Pipe, why not send one of our clan members in to investigate?"

"That's a good idea…" Wu De's eyes lit up, and he nodded eagerly.

Among the clan members he had brought this time, even the weakest was at the True God Realm.

The High Priest stood up, glanced back at the kneeling clan members, and pointed lightly at one. "You, step forward."

A young Yuan Mo Clan man at the God Monarch Realm third layer stood up, a hint of panic on his face.

The High Priest frowned in displeasure. "Serving the Demon Lord is your utmost glory," she said.

Hearing the High Priest's words, the young man had a sudden realization, and his panicked expression transformed into fervent zeal.

Wu De pointed lightly, and a beam of light infused into the young man's mind. "This is the information about my Purple Gold Pipe. Once you are inside, you must search for it diligently," Wu De solemnly instructed.

"Rest assured, Demon Lord! I will definitely find your Purple Gold Pipe!" the young man declared loudly, kneeling on the ground.

Wu De nodded in satisfaction. In a place without even a True God, sending a Yuan Demon Clan Person at the God Monarch Realm fifth layer was akin to delivering an invincible presence.

"I grant you a Divine Skill. With it, you can annihilate any being within the God Monarch Realm tenth layer in a single strike." Wu De, still feeling slightly uneasy, pointed again. Another beam of light entered the mark on the young man's brow.

With this Divine Skill, he could finally rest assured. The so-called Gatekeeper would be no match for this young man.

Once everything was arranged, Wu De waved his hand. "Go!" he ordered.

"Wait a moment, Demon Lord. I have a few words for him," the High Priest said, suddenly seeming to recall something, and stopped the young man.

The young man halted.

With a solemn expression, the High Priest slowly said, "It is said that the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon is also watched over by certain supreme powers within the Divine Land. Once you enter, you must not engage in wanton slaughter."

"I understand, High Priest," the young man nodded gravely, then vanished in a flash.

The High Priest let out a slow sigh of relief. Although the Human Cultivators within the Forbidden Zone of the Hidden Dragon were weak, she knew that the supreme powers in the Divine Land paid close attention to this restricted area. The Spirits of the Divine Land were not allowed to take advantage of their cultivation base and slaughter the cultivators inside.

"Alright, let's head back for now," Wu De said, watching the young man's figure disappear before turning and stepping onto the Celestial Boat. He, too, needed to return and cultivate diligently; after all, the higher his cultivation base, the greater his chances of escaping this world. And the Spiritual Energy of the Netherworld Demon Territory, imbued with demonic nature, was well-suited for the cultivation of his current Yuan Mo body.

WHOOSH!

The Celestial Boat ascended, transforming into a streak of light. It pierced through the barrier at the end of the Ancient Road to Heaven and then vanished over the horizon.

Ye Yun, currently tearing through space towards the Daluo Region, was still unaware that as he departed the Cangnan Continent, the owner of the Purple Gold Pipe had dispatched a Yuan Mo at the Divine Monarch Realm into the Cangnan Continent.

Fortunately, Ye Yun's luck was exceptionally good. When he had previously revealed so many God level and Super God Level pipes, only one powerful individual had sensed them. Otherwise, if powerhouses from all the various dimensional universes had sensed them, this part of the Divine Land's world would likely have been thrown into complete chaos.
