This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 682 - 591: Eavesdropping!?

As Liang Yi and the others left the grand hall, the countless arrays set up by the Immortal Dynasty of Xuanzhou slowly dissipated. The commander of the Heixuan army ordered a Great Cultivator of the Immortal Dynasty to check the surroundings once again for any anomalies, getting ready to withdraw the troops.

Previously hidden in the Void, the Great Cultivators of the Immortal Dynasty emerged one after another, conducting a carpet-style search around the area, not letting the interior of the grand hall escape their inspection. Among them, an elder nearing fifty focused his search within the grand hall where Liang Yi and his party had been.

Jiang Sui, a Daoist Practitioner in the early stages of the Eighth Realm cultivated by the military of the Immortal Dynasty, rushed to the site with his fellow Daoists upon receiving the military command, vigilant against any petty thieves.

As to what had happened in the grand hall, these individuals knew nothing. Their duty was merely to ensure no one spied on this place. However, Jiang Sui felt that the orders from above seemed redundant.

One must know that those in this palace of clouds were the top figures of the Mystical Mechanism Continent, each of them an unreachable existence that even if Jiang Sui craned his neck, he could not see their soles. With such stellar presences guarding this place, was their protection truly needed?

Yet, a military command is a military command after all, and Jiang Sui certainly did not dare to neglect it. Knowing full well there would be no outcome, he still gave his utmost attention to the task.

The grand hall was vast, but for a Cultivator of the Eighth Realm, an inspection would not even take a single breath's time, if not for the need for meticulous searching. Jiang Sui's inspection could have been even quicker! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Just as Jiang Sui did not find any anomaly and was prepared to leave without any achievements, he suddenly stopped as though he had just remembered something.

Since embarking on the path of cultivation, Jiang Sui's opportunities, strength, and fortune had all been mediocre, everything about him was exceedingly ordinary. His cultivation had always been growing steadily, neither rapidly nor so slowly as to cause concern nearing life's end.

But Jiang Sui himself was unconcerned, for to those on the path of cultivation, to have "no blessings, no calamities" was in itself a kind of fortune.

However, since he was capable of advancing to the Eighth Realm, Jiang Sui naturally had something special about him, and that was a piece of an incomplete Cultivation Technique he had fortuitously learned at the beginning of his cultivation: the Heart Word Auspicious Scripture!

Though this technique was merely partial, even now at his current Realm, Jiang Sui still couldn't fully comprehend its mysteries, nor could he imagine how strong this Cultivation Technique would be if it were complete and intact.

This Cultivation Technique had no offensive power and barely contributed to the enhancement of strength, but the fundamental reason why Jiang Sui kept practicing it was due to a special Daoist Skill it imparted: the ability to give him a peculiar intuition at any time!

When he was hunting down evil cultivators but couldn't find their trace, he could use this Daoist Skill to roughly locate their position.

When his breakthrough at a Realm encountered obstacles, he could also use this Daoist Skill to find his breakthrough's opportunity.

This Daoist Skill was not omnipotent, and through many years of study, he found that the cost of using this skill was quite high. Intuition is, after all, just another manifestation of fortune, and this Daoist Skill concentrated a Cultivator's fortune of a period into this one moment, creating "strong fortune"!

But this strong fortune was fleeting, and soon after, he would become extraordinarily unlucky for a while, to the point of tripping over even on flat ground.

If it were a cute girl who tripped, it might still be fine, but for an old man nearing fifty to trip on flat ground, that sight was truly not very graceful.

Moreover, Jiang Sui found that the factors affecting this intuition were extremely complex, and often, the intuition formed by this Daoist Skill was useless, only leading to false excitement.

Considering this, unless he encountered something very important and unsolvable, Jiang Sui would generally not use this Daoist Skill.

But perhaps due to the intuition of a Cultivator, or just holding onto a stroke of luck, Jiang Sui hesitated for a moment before impulsively activating this Daoist Skill.

"What am I thinking? So many powerful experts didn't find anything unusual, how could I··· Hmm?"

Jiang Sui, following his inexplicable intuition, scanned the entire grand hall once more. He was already prepared to embrace a string of unfortunate events to come, yet he actually discovered a trace of abnormality under one of the stone pillars in the grand hall.

The pillars in the grand hall were not just for aesthetic purposes.

Directly beneath the grand hall, within the entire cloud formation, was a Mystical Array, part of a peerless Great Formation that maintained the operation of the entire Secret Realm.

Each pillar in the grand hall stood exactly on the nodes of this segment of the Array!

This Array was naturally to be investigated by other Cultivators proficient in Arrays and was not within the scope of Jiang Sui's inspection, but since his intuition instructed him to glance at it, he did take a casual look.

Who would have thought, this single glance actually revealed an issue!

A cluster of pitch-black shadows had attached itself to the Array's node, merging with the surrounding Array patterns. If one did not separately and carefully observe this detail, no one would be able to spot this slight peculiarity!

Sensing something unusual, Jiang Sui quickly sent out a Spirit Light message to the Heixuan army's stone or commander, reporting this abnormality. Meanwhile, Jiang Sui himself kept a close watch on the anomaly in the Array patterns, preventing any sudden changes.

What puzzled Jiang Sui endlessly was that among those who had stayed here, whether it was the Sect Master of the Complete Heaven Sect or that figure from the Senluo Wanxiang Sect, all of whom were the world's top Array masters, how had they failed to notice this issue?
