Chapter 29: Heaven Burial Scripture

Inside Mufeng City, in the City Lord's Mansion, where no one is paying attention at the moment.

City Lord Tan Yuan, who was supposed to host the Monster Hunting Conference and entertain the Third Prince Zhao Wentai, is now sitting cross-legged in a hidden basement in the City Lord's Mansion.

He is tall and strong, with short hair hanging down, a golden mask on half of his face, eyes closed, brows furrowed, and the spiritual power in his body is as vast as the ocean, constantly impacting his body.

Fortunately, the walls of this basement have been specially reinforced, otherwise the aftermath of this spiritual power can collapse this basement.

At this time, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of bloodshot.

Then, the spiritual energy in his body turned into a spiritual sword and shot towards the entrance of the basement.

Clang——

This spiritual sword, which is enough to cause severe damage to a sixth-grade warrior, was suddenly grasped by a big hand.

The big hand squeezed hard and crushed the spiritual sword alive.

Then, at the entrance of the basement, a figure wrapped in a black robe slowly walked into the basement.

"Hehehe~~"

"Tan Yuan, I haven't seen you for a month, is this how you greet me?!"

A hoarse voice came from under the black robe, with a playful tone.

Tan Yuan took a few deep breaths and calmed his surging blood.

He glanced at the black-robed figure indifferently and said in a grim voice.

"Guijiu, don't disturb me when I'm practicing. If you do it again, I will kill you!"

Hearing this, the black-robed figure laughed even happier.

"Hahaha, that's really scary."

"But listen to my advice, don't waste your energy, no matter how many times you try, it's impossible to break through~~"

"As a half-human, half-demon, you not only survived successfully, but also cultivated to the seventh-grade warrior, which is already a blessing from heaven."

"If you go any higher, it will be against heaven~~"

If this word gets out, it will definitely cause an uproar.

The mayor of a city, a powerful man with the strength of the seventh grade, is actually a human-demon hybrid!

Hearing the words of the black-robed figure, the light in Tan Yuan's eyes dimmed a little.

"Against heaven?"

"I have been going against heaven since I was born, not just this time~~"

Tan Yuan snorted coldly.

"What are you doing here in my city lord's mansion? If I'm not mistaken, the prince of Tianyue country has already arrived~"

"If he finds you, your identity as a demon beast will definitely be exposed. You really know how to pick the right time~~"

The black-robed figure laughed wantonly after hearing this.

"Hahaha, so what if you're discovered? I, Guijiu, have never been afraid!"

"Don't worry, Tan Yuan. We are grasshoppers on the same rope. I won't hurt you~"

Tan Yuan stood up and ordered him to leave.

"If you're just here to reminisce about the past, you can leave."

"I still have to continue practicing..."

Hearing this, the black-robed figure took a few steps forward, took off his wide hat, and revealed his true face.

He looked to be around 40 or 50 years old, with black hair, but a sickly pale complexion, sunken eyes, and a hooked nose, giving people a sinister and evil feeling.

"With your special identity, you won't stay in the human world for long. You will be exposed sooner or later. Even if you escaped from that prince, what about the next time?"

"Only if we monsters are willing to accept you, we are friends~~"

"I came here to tell you a good news~"

"A good news that can help you change your fate and break free from the shackles!!"

The man named Guijiu stared at Tan Yuan and said.

Tan Yuan's expression changed when he heard this, but he didn't speak.

Guijiu continued: "Do you still remember Bai Qinian from the Bai family?"

"Bai Mingxue's father? The Bai Qinian who was regarded as a sinner by the Bai family?" Tan Yuan thought about it and said hesitantly.

"According to rumors, the Bai family got a treasure ten years ago, which could greatly increase the strength of his entire family."

"However, at that time, Bai Qinian suddenly went crazy for some reason, snatched the treasure away, and disappeared without a trace."

"The Bai family was particularly angry because of this, and frantically searched for his whereabouts, but they couldn't find him. In the end, they could only vent their anger and resentment on his wife and daughter."

"His wife chose to commit suicide because she was overwhelmed, and his little daughter inexplicably fell seriously ill and was on the verge of death. She was unconscious, and only the girl named Bai Mingxue was left to support her..."

Tan Yuan told the story slowly, and his expression couldn't help but sigh.

He had a deep impression of Bai Mingxue. Not only was she gifted, but she was also strong and resolute, very similar to him back then.

Guijiu laughed and said, "Well said, you know a lot~~"

"Why would you, a demon beast, pay attention to the affairs of the Bai family?"

"Even if the Bai family gets some treasure, it shouldn't be in the eyes of a seventh-level demon beast like you..." Tan Yuan asked doubtfully.

"Originally, it was true, but by chance, I knew the name of that treasure." Guijiu still kept the secret and said in a persuasive way.

"Indeed, many people are curious about what treasure the Bai family got, but the Bai family members who know about this matter are all silent and tacitly silent. How did you know?" Tan Yuan's curiosity has been completely hooked by Guijiu.

"Don't worry about it, I have plenty of means."

"The important thing is that treasure, it is the legendary Burial Heaven Sutra!"

"Hehehe, you heard it right, it's the Burial Heaven Sutra you know~~"

Ghost Dove said sinisterly.

"Heaven Burial Scripture!"

"Heaven Burial Scripture, one of the four Scriptures of World Destruction!!"

"How... how is this possible!!"

"That is a treasure coveted by the Martial Emperor, how could it be obtained by the small Bai family!!"

When Tan Yuan heard what Ghost Dove said, his pupils suddenly dilated, and his original old-fashioned expression was completely replaced by disbelief.

"Absolutely true."

"How is it?"

"Tan Yuan, your chance to change your fate is this Heaven Burial Scripture."

"Cooperate with me, find this Heaven Burial Scripture, and you will definitely become a demon emperor in the future!!"

Ghost Dove said excitedly.

"Can it really help me break through?" Tan Yuan was obviously a little moved, and asked in a trembling voice.

"The owner of the Heaven Burial Scripture has long transcended the realm of the Martial Emperor. For him, it doesn't matter whether he is a human or a demon."

"He has created a technique in his life, so he will naturally not be bound by it. If you can comprehend it, won't the problem of blood be solved?"

Ghost Dove continued.

Tan Yuan fell silent. After a while, he asked the last question: "Why do you want to cooperate with me for such a good thing?"

"Hehehe, Tan Yuan, you are being polite~"

"We are half-brothers, who else can I cooperate with if not you?" Guijiu said sincerely.

"To be honest, although I know a lot of big monsters, there are only a few I can trust. After all, in front of a treasure like the Burial Heaven Scripture, no one will not be tempted. I dare not make allies casually."
