Chapter 253: Ghostly Immortal God
"Where have you gone?"

Before he could use his spiritual sense to search, the white light transformed by the Bone Heart-Locking Hook had disappeared without a trace!

"As expected, I knew those people were not all dead yet!"

At this moment, the World Tree suddenly said with some playfulness.

"Who are you talking about?"

"Humph, who else could it be? Of course it must be those ghosts who dare not see people. I didn't expect these evil spirits to survive. I had guessed it when I saw this white bone heart-locking hook before, and now it is true."

Zhang Qian's mind moved, and he guessed, "Are you saying that this bone heart-locking hook was taken away by someone from the ghost world? How is that possible!"

"Don't disbelieve me. There is a ghost god inside this treasure, which is considered the spirit of this treasure. Over the years, the Sky Devouring Demon King has been holding this treasure and must have unknowingly collected countless ghosts for those people. It's ridiculous that this demon king didn't know from the beginning to the end that the bone lock heart hook he got was calculated by others."

Zhang Qian was secretly awed and couldn't help asking, "Why don't these ghosts show up in person? Why do they have to resort to such a shameless scheme? To secretly collect the ghosts?"

World Tree smiled coldly: "What else could it be? Of course..."

At this point, the World Tree suddenly stopped talking and said hurriedly, "Shut up!"

Zhang Qian's face changed, and he hurriedly escaped into the Immortal Palace of the Two Realms, and tried his best to practice the magic of standing without shadow to restrain his breath.

The next moment, Zhang Qian felt an extremely cold aura sweeping across. Even the Immortal Palace of the Two Realms could not block this aura. It made people tremble with fear and shook. It swept across the area of ​​hundreds of thousands of miles around Zhang Qian. It was simply incredible!

"What is this? What a terrifying aura!"

After a long time, the extremely cold aura slowly dissipated, as if it had never appeared.

After confirming again and again that the breath had disappeared, Zhang Qian came out of the Immortal Palace.

"That was that just now?"

"Hmph, it's a ghost immortal god. You just killed the demon king and caused the White Bone Locking Heart Hook to automatically return. This has alarmed the ghost master who refined this treasure. If I hadn't used my tricks, you would have been discovered just now."

Zhang Qian was silent for a long time before he said, "I didn't expect that there was such a connection behind the Sky Devouring Demon King! It's a pity to waste such a treasure."

"You don't have to feel sorry. Once a ghost treasure like the White Bone Locking Heart Hook is refined, it will be affected by the ghost spirit inside. Sooner or later, it will become evil and vicious, and like to play with the souls of living beings."

Zhang Qian shook his head, thinking of the scene where the Sky-Devouring Demon King had trapped the souls of thousands of cultivators in the Yama Divine Ball and burned them with demonic fire. It was obvious that the Sky-Devouring Demon King was influenced by the ghost god in the Bone Heart-Locking Hook, which was why he did such a cruel and vicious thing.

"So what is this treasure?"

Zhang Qian looked at the slowly rotating vortex. This vortex was extremely strange. Even though the Sky Devouring Demon King was dead, this vortex still seemed to have an owner and could block Zhang Qian's consciousness from entering. "You don't have to think about this treasure. This treasure was refined by the Poor Mermaid Clan. It is a blood treasure. Without the blood of the Poor Mermaid Clan, it is impossible to completely refine it. Even if you refine it by force, each activation will consume a huge amount of mana and true essence. It will be exhausted after a few times."

"What? Did you know this a long time ago? Did you know that it was impossible for me to obtain the treasure from the Sky Devouring Demon King?"

Zhang Qian was somewhat angry. This time, all the benefits of killing the Sky-Devouring Demon King were obtained by the World Tree. One of the two treasures that Zhang Qian coveted was taken away by a terrifying ghost god, and the other was a blood treasure that could not be refined without the blood of the poor mermaid clan.

The blood treasure is an extremely rare treasure. Only people with the same blood can refine it. Others cannot, just like the Sky-Devouring Demon King. As a demon king in the state of great perfection of his soul, he has spent a very long time and still has not completely refined this strange vortex of water. As a result, every time he activates this treasure, he consumes a huge amount of mana and true energy. Even the Sky-Devouring Demon King himself can only activate it a few times.

"You don't have to be angry. This treasure should be very important to the Poor Mermaid Clan. You will get a big favor from them if you have the chance to return it to them in the future."

After hearing what the World Tree said, Zhang Qian's mind turned and he thought of Shui Tianyi. Shui Tianyi is a mixed race of merman and human. She has the blood of merman. Logically, she should be able to completely refine this treasure. Unfortunately, Zhang Qian doesn't want Shui Tianyi to get it so easily.

After collecting the vortex of water in the Immortal Palace, Zhang Qian had an idea. While the Dao of the World Tree had not yet dissipated, he hurriedly asked, "You absorbed the Sky Devouring Demon King. Did you get the inheritance that the Sky-supporting Demon King mentioned?"

Zhang Qian was still very interested in the inheritance that the Sky-Devouring Demon King had shouted out before.

Unexpectedly, the World Tree directly refused: "The inheritance is problematic. It should be a back-up plan set up by an ancient celestial demon. It is useless to you."

"This……"

Zhang Qian paused slightly, but did not care. However, first, the aura of a ghost immortal god appeared, and now even the inheritance obtained by the Sky-Devouring Demon King was the back-up plan of an ancient celestial demon. This made Zhang Qian feel that all the secret realms and relics left over from the ancient times were weird everywhere!

"These immortals who have lived for who knows how many years are all old foxes. I wonder if the underwater cave of Hunxuan Patriarch that I obtained from the Two Worlds Escape Immortal Mansion was also Hunxuan Patriarch's plan?"

Seeing Zhang Qian was silent, the World Tree finally said, "Although the inheritance is useless to you, there are still many good things on the Demon King's lair, the Immortal Devouring Island. You can go and have a look. There are also many big demons on the Immortal Devouring Island. With the Demon God's Skull, you shouldn't be in much danger."

After saying this, the World Tree passed a message to Zhang Qian, which was the whereabouts of the Immortal-Devouring Island.

"Devouring Fairy Island?"

Zhang Qian narrowed his eyes. The Immortal-Devouring Island was a big force in the Great Starry Sea and could be considered an eternal sect in the Great Starry Sea. Although the owner of the Immortal-Devouring Island, the Sky-Devouring Demon King, was dead, the Immortal-Devouring Island should not be underestimated. There were other giant monsters at the Yuanshen level, and there were more than 100,000 golden elixir monsters!
The World Tree that devoured all the power of the Sky-Devouring Demon King must be very familiar with the Immortal-Devouring Island. It is obvious that the World Tree has set its eyes on the hundreds of thousands of Golden Core demons on the Immortal-Devouring Island and is now urging Zhang Qian to go to the Immortal-Devouring Island.

Although he knew the purpose of the World Tree, Zhang Qian did not resist. As a major force in the Great Starry Sea, the Immortal-Devouring Island must have dug out a lot of innate spirit stones from the innate spirit stone mines. Coupled with the collection of the Sky-Devouring Demon King, there must be many treasures. These things made Zhang Qian extremely excited.

After thinking about it, Zhan Qian decided to go to the Immortal Island to see if he could get some benefits.

The Immortal-Devouring Island is considered to be a relatively large island among the countless islands in the Great Starry Sea. It is a thousand miles in radius and extremely vast. By the time Zhang Qian carefully arrived at the edge of the Immortal-Devouring Island, it was already three hours later. He had no idea that tremendous changes had taken place in the outside world.
