Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Ba Shan Yu fell into deep thought.
After a long while, Bashan Yu finally came to his senses and looked at Ye Feng.
She couldn't tell whether Ye Feng was telling the truth or not, nor could she find out. So, although Ye Feng spoke eloquently, Ba Shanyu still had some doubts in her heart.
Ye Feng understood this as well, so he added, "Although the Vajra Body Technique is very powerful, it also has very obvious drawbacks."
"Practicing the Vajra Body Technique will make your defense extremely strong, but your attack power will be weakened."
"Moreover, cultivating the Vajra Body Technique will slow down the cultivation speed. If I were to cultivate other techniques, I would definitely be at the third or even fourth level of the True Essence Realm by now, but I am only at the first level of the True Essence Realm now."
After saying that, Ye Feng deliberately gave a wry smile, pretending to be helpless.
Ba Shanyu nodded slightly and said, "Nothing in the world is perfect. It's normal for the Vajra Body Technique to have such a weakness, given its strong defensive capabilities."
Upon hearing Ba Shanyu's words, Ye Feng realized that the woman's suspicions about him had lessened somewhat.
Night Wind then took the opportunity to inquire about the Dark Canyon and the Demon Soul Orb.
"Young Master, why are you, Fengtian Yulong, and Hei Yunji heading to the Deep Dark Canyon? Is the thing you're looking for the Demon Soul Pearl? What exactly is the Demon Soul Pearl?" Ye Feng asked.
Ba Shanyu sighed softly, her expression becoming somewhat complicated.
After a while, Ba Shanyu said, "Do you know why Senluo City is the largest and most prosperous city in the entire Nine Netherworld?"
"I don't know," Night Wind shook his head.
"That's because Senluo City possesses a treasure called the Demon Soul Pearl. The Demon Soul Pearl has extremely strong defensive capabilities and also has a powerful restorative effect."
"It is precisely because of the Demon Soul Beads and the city's protective array that Senluo City was able to develop rapidly in an environment free from disasters."
"But more than five hundred years ago, a person from the Soul Clan rose to power. After that person rose to power, he killed countless experts and became the undisputed number one in the Nine Netherworld. This person from the Soul Clan is none other than the current Nine Netherworld Demon Lord!"
"The Nine Nether Demon Lord coveted the Demon Soul Pearl, a precious treasure of Senluo City, and launched a sudden attack, destroying the city's protective array and stealing the Demon Soul Pearl. With the Demon Soul Pearl, the Nine Nether Demon Lord became even more powerful, and due to its restorative effects, he nearly achieved immortality."
"In order to reclaim the Demon Soul Pearl, the experts from the Bashan family, Fengtian family, and Heiyun family five hundred years ago all came out and joined forces with experts from other cities to besiege the Nine Nether Demon Lord."
"Under the siege of so many people, the Nine Nether Demon Lord was seriously injured and fled into the Deep Dark Canyon with the Demon Soul Pearl."
"With the Demon Soul Pearl in hand, the Nine Nether Demon Lord was practically unkillable. So, the experts from various families and cities had no choice but to join forces to create a sealing formation to seal the entire Dark Canyon. The Nine Nether Demon Lord was thus sealed within the Dark Canyon."
Hearing this historical secret, Ye Feng finally understood the truth of the matter.
It turns out that the real reason Ba Shanyu, Fengtian Yulong, and Hei Yunji went to the Dark Canyon was to find and retrieve the Demon Soul Pearl!
With the Demon Soul Pearl, Senluo City is truly the number one city in the Nine Netherworld!
However, because there is a demon-sealing formation in the Dark Canyon, even experts who have reached the Divine Travel Realm cannot enter. Therefore, only those below the Divine Travel Realm can enter the Dark Canyon to search for the Demon Soul Pearl.
Moreover, the number of slots for entering the Dark Canyon at one time is extremely limited, with only a handful of people allowed.
Ye Feng felt a sudden sense of enlightenment, as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt.
Ba Shanyu then said, "In order to retrieve the Demon Soul Pearl, our three major families have tried countless methods, but none of them have succeeded."
"The Demon-Sealing Array in the Deep Dark Canyon is too powerful. Experts above the Divine Realm will suffer backlash once they enter it, and martial artists below the Divine Realm will also be affected. Moreover, the higher the realm, the more obvious the effect."
"Moreover, the number of martial artists entering the Dark Canyon at the same time cannot be too large. Once the number exceeds six, it will immediately trigger the Demon-Sealing Array."
"That's why our three families only send True Yuan Realm warriors into the Dark Canyon, and each person can only bring one attendant."
"More than twenty years ago, those who entered the Dark Canyon discovered that the Nine Nether Demon Lord was in a strange state, seemingly asleep. This was a good opportunity to reclaim the Demon Soul Pearl, so the three major families, who had originally planned to give up, rallied and increased their efforts to send people into the Dark Canyon to search for the Demon Soul Pearl."
"Whichever family—the Bashan family, the Fengtian family, or the Heiyun family—can bring the Demon Soul Pearl out of the Deep Dark Canyon will become the number one family in Senluo City and receive the support of the entire city."
"Now you should understand how important it is that we're going into the Dark Canyon to find the Demon Soul Orb in two days."
After Ba Shanyu finished speaking, he stared intently at Ye Feng.
The night breeze exhaled, feeling as if the clouds had parted to reveal the clear sky.
More than 20 years ago, the Nine Nether Demon Lord fell into a deep sleep, which coincided with the time when his mother, Xi Yao, disappeared.
In other words, most of the Nine Nether Demon Lord's power entered the Tianyuan World, but was trapped by Xi Yao's Soul Rope, which is why the portion remaining in the Deep Dark Canyon fell into slumber.
According to this logic, since I defeated the Nine Nether Demon Lord, the Nine Nether Demon Lord has already fully returned to the Nine Nether World and is currently located in the Deep Dark Canyon.
It seems that this time, when I go to the Dark Canyon with Ba Shanyu, I will most likely encounter the Nine Nether Demon Lord again!
Moreover, the reason why the Nine Nether Demon Lord cannot be killed is now known: it is the Demon Soul Bead!
This intelligence is absolutely crucial.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Ye Feng's face.
Although I defeated you last time, I didn't kill you.
But this time, you're not so lucky!
Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, you will surely die by my hand!
Night Wind thought to himself, a hint of killing intent rising in his heart.
It was because of the Nine Nether Demon Lord that Xi Yao was trapped in the Tianyuan World for so long.
Now, the time has come to avenge my mother!
"Why are you daydreaming?" Ba Shanyu asked.
Ye Feng came to his senses and laughed, "I was just shocked. I didn't expect that you, Young Master, along with Feng Tianyulong and Hei Yunji, went to the Deep Dark Canyon to find the Demon Soul Pearl for Senluo City. I can't help but feel a little moved."
"Let's not flatter you. You did very well tonight, but your excellence makes me a little uneasy."
Ba Shanyu stopped beating around the bush and got straight to the point: "Night Wind, your appearance was too sudden, your origins are too mysterious, and yet you are very strong."
