Chapter 383: Comprehending God Summoning Art, The Asura Clan’s Allegiance

"I want to know who is summoning me!"

Han Jue thought to himself, a black vortex appearing behind him.

After this is over, I must upgrade the God Summoning Art to avoid needing to calculate it every time.

[Requires deducting 10,000 years of lifespan, proceed?]

Proceed!

10,000 years? That's practically looking down on me!

Three words appeared before Han Jue's eyes:

[Xing Hongxuan]

This woman…

Han Jue was speechless, but at the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it wasn't Long Hao.

After hesitating for a moment, he stepped into the black vortex.

The next second, Han Jue passed through the black vortex and arrived in a magnificent palace. Various paintings and jade ornaments were on display, and a refreshing fragrance filled the hall.

Han Jue saw Xing Hongxuan sitting at a table, which was laden with fine wine and delicacies.

Seeing this scene, Han Jue couldn't help but fall silent.

Xing Hongxuan smiled and said, "Husband, come over and sit!"

"Sit for what? I taught you a Divine Ability, and this is how you use it?"

"Come on."

Xing Hongxuan took the initiative to walk over and pulled Han Jue along.

Han Jue felt helpless; this was truly a trap.

After sitting down, the two exchanged cups, and the atmosphere gradually became less than ideal.

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Han Jue's robes were removed.

…

A month later.

A man's voice came from outside the palace: "Saintess, an Immortal Emperor is giving Sermons in the Holy City today. I have an invitation; would you like to go?"

Xing Hongxuan, sitting on Han Jue, replied, "I'm not going. I've been in Seclusion recently."

"This Immortal Emperor is no simple figure…"

"I said I'm not going, so I'm not going!"

"Alright, continue your Cultivate. If you leave Seclusion, you can find me at any time."

"Mm."

After the man outside the hall left, Han Jue couldn't help but ask, "Who is he?"

This palace had special Restrictions, so people outside couldn't feel anything inside.

Xing Hongxuan said disdainfully, "To use your words, husband, a toad wanting to eat swan meat."

"Ignore him, let's continue."

"Hm? Still not enough?"

"Not enough, never enough!"

…

Back in the Xiantian Cave Abode, Han Jue let out a long sigh.

If he hadn't reached the God Realm, after the God Summoning Art closed, he would have had to travel through the heavens to fly back to the Nine Nether Purgatory. Now, he could directly open the path back; he had left a Six Paths Imprint in the Xiantian Cave Abode, which allowed him to find the space-time node.

Han Jue shook his head and chuckled; this woman always treated him like Tang Seng.

After tossing about for a few months, it could be considered a form of relaxation.

Han Jue began to study the God Summoning Art.

Two years later.

Relying on his comprehension ability from the God Realm, Han Jue upgraded the God Summoning Art. From this day forward, he would be able to feel who was summoning him.

He had already warned Xing Hongxuan that she couldn't summon him casually when there was nothing important!

After her pestering, Han Jue allowed her to summon him at most once every hundred years.

After upgrading the God Realm, Han Jue decided to use Dark Nightmare again.

This time, he wanted to send a Dream Message to Blood Nether River.

When Blood Nether River left the Nine Nether Purgatory, he happened to be near Hidden Gate Island. Han Jue had copied his data and knew his appearance, which made it convenient for him to send a Dream Message.

After a while.

Dream Message successful!

Han Jue forcibly created a dream for Blood Nether River, dragging him directly into the dream.

This was a dim world covered in volcanoes. Han Jue transformed into the Dark Forbidden Master, eerie and terrifying.

After Blood Nether River opened his eyes, he was frightened the moment he saw Han Jue, but he immediately seemed to realize something and asked cautiously, "Your Excellency, could you be the Dark Forbidden Master?"

Blood Nether River could feel that he could jump out of the dream directly, but the fact that the other party could forcibly drag him into the dream meant the other party was stronger than him. The intensity of the dream only indicated that the other party was showing goodwill.

This image…

The first name that popped into Blood Nether River's mind was the Dark Forbidden Master.

Han Jue asked calmly, "Is it comfortable to go around using my name?"

Upon hearing this, Blood Nether River felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He knelt on one knee in panic, cupped his fists, and said, "Senior, I and the Darkness Cult truly respect you and are willing to serve you!"

Han Jue asked, "You have the Asura Clan, why do you want to serve me?"

Blood Nether River said shamefully, "To be honest, the Asura Clan is descended from the Asuras of the Blood Sea from the Primordial Era. We are a race disliked by the Heavenly Dao. I have been looking for a chance to Breakthrough, and I hope you will allow us to serve you!"

"From now on, the Asura Clan is at your disposal. Our demands are not high; we only hope that you can protect us."

Han Jue said, "Your Asura Clan has survived until now; do you not have a way to deal with the Tribulation?"

Blood Nether River smiled bitterly, "We do have one, but we are covered in Karma, inherent from birth. The Heavenly Dao's suppression of us is growing stronger. You are manipulating the Tribulation from the shadows, surely also because you fear the Heavenly Dao. We can be considered to be on the same path."

Han Jue remained silent and did not reply.

Blood Nether River's heart skipped a beat. Did he say something wrong?

Han Jue stared at Blood Nether River quietly. His eerie purple eyes made Blood Nether River feel uneasy, so he quickly lowered his head.

The world fell silent.

After a long while.

When Blood Nether River was about to reach his limit, Han Jue spoke faintly, "I heard you are cooperating with the Heavenly Court. Actually, I have no relationship with the Heavenly Court. The reason I don't curse the Heavenly Court is that the Heavenly Court is an important pawn of mine."

Blood Nether River looked up at Han Jue in surprise.

"To destroy a hegemon, one must first let them become arrogant and blind to everything."

Blood Nether River suddenly understood.

He asked cautiously, "Is your ultimate goal to destroy the Heavenly Court? Or to reshuffle the structure of the Heavenly Dao?"

Han Jue said, "I do it for myself."

For himself!

Blood Nether River immediately let his imagination run wild.

This answer was also the one Blood Nether River found easiest to believe.

If not for himself, what benefit would there be in manipulating the Tribulation?

Is the other party trying to Attain the Dao and become a Saint?

[Blood Nether River has developed favorability toward you. Current favorability is 4 stars.]

Han Jue said, "Continue helping the Heavenly Court. Now that Saints have intervened in the Tribulation, the true behemoths have not yet surfaced. You can rely on the Heavenly Court to protect yourself first and wait and see."

Saints intervened?

Blood Nether River's eyes widened, and he was instantly covered in cold sweat.

He thought of those ancient legends.

Any Tribulation involving Saints is world-destroying, and even the Immortal Realm struggles to protect itself.

[Blood Nether River's favorability toward you has increased. Current favorability is 4.5 stars.]

Blood Nether River said respectfully, "This subordinate obeys!"

His attitude shifted quickly.

Han Jue waved his hand, and the dream shattered directly.

Blood Nether River returned to reality, recalling everything that had just happened, feeling amazed.

Is this the Dark Forbidden Master?

Truly unfathomable!

…

Inside the Xiantian Cave Abode, Han Jue pondered whether there were others he could use.

Besides Blood Nether River, he didn't know who else worshipped the Dark Forbidden Master.

Forget it.

Let's leave it at that for now.

Han Jue roused his spirits and continued to Cultivate.

Recently, because of Xing Hongxuan, he had delayed a lot of Cultivate time and had to make up for it.

Han Jue's speed of absorbing Karma had been steadily increasing. Now, he was not far from the Fourth Profound God Origin; at the very least, he could already see signs of it.

Time flew by.

Thirty years later.

Liu Bei returned, faster than Han Jue had expected.

Liu Bei was beaming and smiled, "Master, I have found the place you were looking for! It's even better than the Nine Nether Purgatory!"
