"Magic items from the beams of light from the sky!!?"

The one who spoke to Zheng-Fu was an elder in his herb garden. The elder could tell that these two devices were indeed magic items sent from the sky. Because in this world no one could create it. And it probably could not be excavated from any ancient ruins either.

"Are you sure they're magic items from the beam of the sky?" Zheng-Fu asked again. And he thought there was a possibility as the elder said.

"Even though I'm not ten parts sure. But I'm nine-tenths sure!" the elder confirmed.

"I think the same as him. Those magic devices emitted Ancient Energy waves, just like the magic item that I have. So, I think they're magic items from the sky as well!" The ancient creature also supported the elder's answer. Because the auras he sensed from the two magic devices were similar to the magic item he had. Even though his magic item was damaged and half-effective, he was still confident that they had to be.

Umm!

"I think every sect probably has magic items from the sky in their hands. I just don't know how many pieces they have. If a war breaks out, we should be able to see them! But now I want to know where the Devil Sects and Demon Sects camped!" Zheng-Fu understood this. And now his focus was on the campsites of the Devil Sects and Demon Sects.

Shortly after the Sacred Heavenly Saber Divine Sect and Sacred Heavenly Star Divine Sect arrived and searched for a landing place for their vehicles, the Sacred Infernal Divine Subdue Sky Sect's vehicle appeared in the sky, which was an airship as well. However, their airship was different from other normal airships because the surrounding hull was filled with fiery flame energy while the hull was unaffected by the heat.

After the Sacred Infernal Divine Subdue Sky Sect had landed, they started to build their camp. And at this moment, all eight Sacred Sects had arrived and were all encamped near each other, only a few li apart. So that if the Devil Sects and Demon Sects do anything against them, every Sacred Sect could help each other in time.

"By the way, when will the entrance to Dragon Deity Secret Land open?"

"I heard Master Elder say it'll open in the next three days or sooner!"

"Three days? Umm! Then, in the three days before the gate opens, shall we go play at the Holy Heavenly Blossom Sect's camp?"

"If you want your member to be slashed, you can try it! I'm for one not going with you!"

"Huh! Why did you say such cruel words? I just wanted to go say hi and get to know them. I didn't think about doing anything to them, not even a little bit!"

"I don't want to comment on this matter anymore. If you want to try, that's up to you!"

Heavenly Command Sect's disciples gathered together to discuss various situations all the time. Some had a serious demeanor. Some seem relaxed and stress-free. As for Zheng-Fu, who did not sit together with anyone, he was constantly observing everyone to gather information from them. And, of course, Zheng-Fu thought of exploring the surrounding area. Even though the elder ordered all disciples not to go anywhere.

"It's so boring and frustrating that I can't go out. Or shall I disobey Master Elder and secretly leave the camp? If I use my body camouflage skill, even the Deity Soul stage cultivator would find it hard to sense me!" Zheng-Fu said wearily, wondering if he should venture outside to investigate. He was confident that his camouflage skill was exceptional, not easily detectable by anyone, unless that person had psychic power or a magical detection tool.

Half an hour passed...

After Zheng-Fu sat there for another half hour, nothing happened, everything was still calm. Even the high-rank elders who had gone to the meeting had not returned. Zheng-Fu thought that it was time for him to go out and explore because if he stayed here any longer, he would definitely be bored to death.

Whoosh!!!

Once Zheng-Fu made up his mind, he immediately used his body camouflage skill to sneak away from Heavenly Command Sect's camp. Zheng-Fu headed in the opposite direction of the eight camps of the Sacred Sects. He guessed that direction would be the location of those Devil Sects and Demon Sects.

Whoosh!!!

Huh?

'Is there another human camp here too? Which sect are they from?' When Zheng-Fu entered the forest not too far away, he encountered a small camp with about fifty cultivators. Ten of them were the Deity Soul stage cultivators. The rest were all below that level.

'It seems that besides the eight Sacred Sects, there are other Human Sects and Monster Sects too. And if I had to guess, there should be many more sects coming here!' Zheng-Fu thought, then he continued to explore.

Half an hour passed...

After exploring the area for another twenty lis, Zheng-Fu found a camp full of negative energy and a deadly aura. It was the camp of one of the Devil Sects. And from what he had noticed, this Devil Sect was probably just a small Sect. Because their strength was even less than the Human Sect he had encountered before.

'This Devil Sect is not strong in energy. But they definitely have to be strong in other fields, otherwise, they don't dare to come to this place. At least they must have enough confidence!' Zheng-Fu believed that this Devil Sect had to have some kind of ability, so he did not risk getting any closer. Anyway, he intended to explore the area only.

Woosh!!!

"Who's that!?"

"Who are you talking to? Is there anyone there?"

"I don't know! Suddenly, I felt something move past over there. But when I looked carefully, I saw nothing. I suspect I'm a little too cautious!"

As Zheng-Fu moved away, he tried releasing a small amount of energy and hurriedly retrieved it. It caused this devil who was guarding the Devil Sect's camp to sense his presence within a second, and that sense disappeared just as quickly.

Another half hour passed...

After leaving the Devil Sect's camp, Zheng-Fu continued on his way. Along the way, he encountered four more camps of the Devil Sects and six more camps of the Demon Sects. However, these Devil Sects and Demon Sects were all medium and small sects only. They were not from the large sects yet.

"There are more Devil sects and Demon Sects than I expected! Moreover, every sect I encountered was overseen by several high-level cultivators. It seems that when the Dragon Deity Secret Land gate opens, there will be quite a bit of chaos. Many lives would surely be lost inside the secret land!" Zheng-Fu thought and shook his head helplessly. He felt that the treasure search this time would be sort of a small war.

"I should go and explore a little more. At least I'll know how many Devil Sects and Demon Sects came this time!"

Whoosh!!!

Another half hour passed...

After Zheng-Fu headed out another thirty lis, he encountered a large Devil Sect camp in that direction and another Demon Sect camp beside it. Both camps were as big, and Zheng-Fu guessed that these two sects must be big.

"The disciples joining this quest are all strong at the advanced Heavenly Star stage. Even the chief supervisor who came this time has a higher level than Elder Li-Xiao-Bai," Zheng-Fu said after he examined the strength of these Devil Sect and Demon Sect members.

"But I can't stay here for long. They seem to have begun to suspect my existence!" At that moment, Zheng-Fu sensed a gaze staring at him. The owner of that gaze was a large figure demon wearing full armor and was a sixth-level Deity Soul stage cultivator. Therefore, Zheng-Fu decided to leave that place before he was caught.

At the Demon Sect camp where Zheng-Fu was watching…

"What happened to you? I saw you looking over there for a long time. Or is there someone peeking at us over there?" another demon asked. After he saw a large demon looking at Zheng-Fu.

"Nothing. I just feel like there's a dirty rat there. But when I turned to look, it's gone!" the large demon immediately replied. However, his eyes were still on the spot where Zheng-Fu had previously stood, but now Zheng-Fu had already left.

Ah!

"There are often dirty rats in this area. Don't pay any attention to them. Let's continue talking about our plans. I think we should get rid of all the disciples of the Sacred Sects. I've ordered my disciples to prepare themselves. Even the other Devil Sects and Demon Sects agreed to this plan!" the skinny demon spoke with an indifferent smile towards the filthy rat they mentioned.

"Umm! I've ordered all my top-rank disciples to be prepared as well. And I guess they think the same as us. So, hunting treasure this time is no different from a mini-war between us and them!" the large demon said. He had already planned about this and had given many magic items to his disciples.

Umm!!!

Back to Zheng-Fu again...

After Zheng-Fu had escaped and found that no one was following him, he felt relieved and gradually slowed down his speed. At first, he thought those demons would follow him.

"Luckily, they didn't follow. It would be so dangerous if that big demon thought of coming after me and could sense me. I'm definitely not immune to death. Because right now, I can't fight the Deity Soul stage cultivators. The energy levels are still too far apart. All right! I've explored enough today. I better hurry back to camp before someone finds out that I sneaked out!"

Zheng-Fu decides to return to Heavenly Command Sect's camp. Because if he disappeared for a long time and someone caught him, there would surely be a problem. Perhaps he would even be punished by being barred from participating in the treasure search.

An hour passed...

Finally, Zheng-Fu arrived back at Heavenly Command Sect's camp and found that no one knew that he had disappeared before. Zheng-Fu acted as usual and found a seat to rest. He then began his energy cultivation, waiting for dinner time to arrive.

Thud!!!

Wooooooosh!!!
