Walker Of The Worlds-Novel

Old Man Lao could see several bits of information in the documents that seemed unusual to him.

'Emperor Feng said that the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation is the most dangerous one out of them all. Thus if the Demon were to know that he was about to go through one, he was probably preparing.

And considering the properties of the Violet Mystic Life tree, perhaps the demon relied on the tree's vitality to endure this. After all the Tree was already comparable to a Peak Immortal existence.' Old Man Lao thought after reading it all.

This seemed to be the only possible explanation to him all.

He did think that it might be someone else that might have undergone the Transcendent Immortal Tribulation. But it would be far too much of a coincidence for there to be multiple peak grade immortals in the Desolate Blood Battlefield.

Perhaps if the Violet Mystic Life Tree had never appeared, he might have thought it was possible. But with the tree being there too, it was now highly unlikely.

'They even chose to have it in the Desolate Blood Battlefield knowing that it might catch the attention of the emperors and other peak immortals right away if they did this in the Rust Sky world.' Old Man Lao concluded.

Having learned this, he knew that there wasn't much they would be able to find here now.

"Looks like we need to expand the scope of search." Old Man Lao said to others that were waiting for him to be done.

"We already have some areas checked, Grandmaster. There's nothing within the five hundred kilometer radius at least." The investigator spoke.

"That's not enough. We don't just need to look in the Desolate Blood Battlefield, but also in the Rust Sky World." Old Man Lao said much to their surprise.

"Outside too?" General Niu Juo furrowed his brows. "Why?" he asked.

"All this… the disappearance of the Violet Mystic Life Tree and the Transcendent Immortal Tribulation were not coincidences. All of this was well planned and possibly have been read for a long time." Old Man Lao answered.

"This…" The investigator was rather surprised hearing this. "How can one predict all this?" he asked.

"Peak immortals will know when they are going to have their Transcendent Immortal Tribulation. It is likely that the demon had raised the Violet Mystic Tree for a few thousand years for this very use." Old Man Lao replied.

"The demon used the tree for the tribulation?" General Niu Juo didn't expect this.

"Yes… The Violet Mystic Life Tree is known for its vitality and ability to extend Lifespans. But at the same time, it can also endure a lot. My best guess is that the demon used the Tree to offset the damage from the Transcendent Immortal Tribulation… if it were a normal one it would have been fine, but the one that occurred here was anything but simple." Old Man Lao explained before telling them more about the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation.

Learning that there was a tribulation like this, they were stunned.

"No wonder… I felt afraid." General Niu Juo said, remembering the event.

"Even I would feel afraid. So it's normal." Old Man Lao replied. "No immortal would be safe from the Grand Tempest Transcendent Immortal Tribulation. It is the most dangerous one out of them all."

"I see… Looks like we got to see an event that we may never see again in our lives." Genial Niu Juo muttered.

"Exactly." Old Man Lao agreed. "Even I who has seen many worlds, had never heard of this until very recently." He revealed.

"Then what should we do next, Grandmaster?" The investigator asked. "How much farther do to think we should expand our scope of search? The entire Desolate Blood Battlefield?" he asked.

"I don't think the Demon would stay here." Old Man Lao replied. "It would not make sense for it to do so. It will probably leave the Desolate Blood Battlefield once it has recuperated enough." He added.

"Then should we block the exit?" The investigator asked.

"That won't do much other than trouble the others." Old Man Lao shook his head. "Do you really think the Demon would not have other ways of leaving this place? Especially one that is a Transcendent Immortal now?" he questioned.

"That… does make sense." The investigator nodded his head.

"For now, inform the Royal court about this. Even if the Demon does take another route to leave the Desolate Blood Battlefield, he will still arrive within the Holy Topaz Continent. Thus we might have a chance to catch him then." Old Man Lao stated. "And if he tried to leave the continent, the Emperor would know when he passes over the border." He added.

Hearing this, the investigator's eyes shone.

"Yes, I'll inform them right away." The man said before taking his leave.

General Niu Juo was still thinking about it all and wondered how long it would take them to find anything.

"What should I do till then, Grandmaster?" The general asked.

His skills didn't really help here much, thus he would basically be sitting without doing anything.

"We still need to look through the Desolate Blood Battlefield. There might still be other clues left behind here. Or maybe we might even get some witnesses." Old Man Lao replied.

"Hmm, should I go around directly then?" The man asked calmly.

"Yes, that might just be better for you." Old Man Lao said before handing the man a Jade Slip. "Keep this with you. It'll allow me to track you as well as contact you."

Seeing the jade slip, Niu Juo was surprised as he knew just how valuable it was.

'A cross-world communication Jade slip?' Niu Juo recognized.

It was a special type of Jade Slip that could not only communicate between minor planes and the main worlds but also between multiple different planets!New chapters are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

This was something that couldn't be bought even if one had the cash for it.

"Isn't this too much, Grandmaster?" General Niu Juo asked.
