"Here they come, here they come!"
"Fellow Daoists, the diary has been exposed again!"
On the communication array spread across the Nine Provinces, the light curtain flickered and characters appeared one by one.
The diary continues to be updated.
Immortal Great Emperor's Diary, Page 66:
"I've laid my cards on the table, I came for the secret technique of the Mud Pill Ancestral Palace!"
"That female demon, Han Xingmian, is really good at scheming..."
"She said there are two conditions for obtaining the Mud Pill technique, and one of them is to help her expose the person behind the Punishment Hall!"
"During this period, the Extreme Ice Immortal Palace will fully cooperate with me, and I can mobilize most of the palace's power."
"This condition is difficult!"
"I interrogated the Punishment Hall's master for several months, exhausted myself, but didn't get any useful information."
"And there is a deeper reason, whoever arranged for someone to infiltrate the Extreme Ice Immortal Palace and plan so far ahead must have extraordinary backing. It's possible that I'll stir up a lot of trouble."
"And there's another important reason!"
"I'm worried that even the Punishment Hall's master can't contact the first-level, doesn't know who's above, and can only communicate through a single line. If we investigate, it'll be as difficult as reaching the heavens."
"I looked at her and could feel her hatred towards the mastermind behind the scenes, as well as her determination. I secretly thought it would be difficult to deal with. She has firmly set her sights on me."
"I thought for a moment and had to ask her what the second condition is..."
"Who knew!"
"The female demon smiled faintly, her enchanting eyes glanced at me, her smile becoming even more radiant. She said she hadn't thought of it yet, but she would tell me once the first condition is completed!"
"I trembled, my scalp tingling. This gaze feels somewhat familiar, hmm, just like the girls in the Drunken Spring Pavilion..."
"Ah, speaking of the Drunken Spring Pavilion, it reminds me of the days when you were in the Xuanqing Sect, those days of combining work and leisure, truly gone forever."
"Uh, back to the point."
"After a little thought, I sneered in my heart: Could it be that this woman is from the Heaven Sword? Do you think you're Zhao Min and I'm Zhang Wuji?"
"Complete one condition before mentioning another..."
"What if, after I complete the first condition, she uses that condition to create two more conditions? I absolutely cannot agree to such uncertain matters."
"Finally!"
After some bargaining, the second condition was invalidated. She could only mention the second condition if I failed to complete the first one.
"But there's a prerequisite, she can't take advantage of me, she must protect my physical and mental safety. If she can't control herself, she must provide enough nourishment and compensate with various spiritual medicines..."
Before I could finish speaking, I was kicked out. I saw her blushing, probably because I hit the nail on the head and made her embarrassed!
After all, she is a female demon, the master of a palace, in charge of so many people, and lacks experience in this area. It's normal for her to have thin skin.
Next...
In the following six months, the Extreme Ice Immortal Palace stirred up a great storm, a severe operation to catch spies, it can be said to be a bloody affair, and indeed, many people were exposed.
It involved many core departments of the Immortal Palace.
Unfortunately, these people were all cultivated by the Punishment Hall's master, and they knew nothing about the person behind the scenes, they didn't even know who was above them.
They couldn't provide any useful information.
These people were turned into ice sculptures by the female demon and displayed throughout the Immortal Palace, to deter others.
It turns out that being an undercover agent doesn't end well...
Fortunately, I'm not an undercover agent now.
The spies in the Extreme Ice Immortal Palace have been dealt with, but where do I find the mastermind behind the scenes? After thinking it over, I can only make a breakthrough with the Punishment Hall's master!
But her mouth is really stubborn!
Even Han Xingmian, using all the cruel tortures of the Extreme Ice Immortal Palace, couldn't get anything out of her. She confessed to some things, but those things were not enough to find the mastermind behind the scenes, and couldn't even narrow down the scope of investigation.
The clues were at a standstill, truly giving me a headache!
I pondered...
If, if Conan were to encounter this situation, what would he do? Where should he start, unraveling the threads bit by bit, and then find the true culprit behind the scenes?
Well, I can't think of anything!
That witch Han Xingmian, she keeps urging me, asking if I've found any clues. Didn't I promise confidently to solve the case in three months and find the real culprit in five months? Why is it different now?
Ahem, during this time, I've had more contact with her, and our feelings... no, our friendship has grown a bit. I did exaggerate and boast in front of her.
I just made a mistake that any cultivator would make.
Who doesn't boast?
Actually, I have thought of other ways, such as investigating the origins of the Lord of Punishment, the places he has been, and the people he has interacted with.
But the Lord of Punishment was brought back by an Elder from the Immortal Palace and has been practicing in the Immortal Palace for thousands of years without making any mistakes. That Elder has also passed away, and the leads have become even more elusive.
There are no problems in other aspects.
All of this shows that it's not that I'm incapable, but that the opponent is too cunning and powerful.
Besides, I joined the Immortal Palace halfway, just to repair the grand formation, not to be an undercover agent. It's already quite outstanding that I can do this, so there's no need to blame myself!
There's really no other way...
So I fooled the witch for now and temporarily imprisoned the Lord of Punishment, waiting for the rabbit to come to the door.
Since we can't find them, let them come to us.
The other party has put in so much effort to set up the situation, pushing the spy to the position of the Lord of Punishment. They were on the verge of success, but now something unexpected has happened. They definitely won't give up easily.
Once the other party realizes that the Lord of Punishment has been imprisoned, they might reveal their true colors. If they try to rescue the Lord of Punishment, it would be even better.
We can catch a few more!
Haha, Han Xingmian was indeed convinced by my idea and hasn't been urging me anymore.
But, waiting like this, several more months have passed.
No progress at all!
I'm getting impatient. When will this end? I can't stay in this demon's lair forever, right?
And, I've noticed...
Lately, the witch always likes to summon me for no reason, either in her personal palace or in the Frozen Paradise...
There's also a Fairy Spirit Spring deep in the Immortal Palace, soaking in it can increase cultivation base by five hundred years and has great benefits for improving physical condition.
She asked me to accompany her to check the water quality and effects of the Fairy Spirit Spring after the palace celebration.
I feel that something is not right. Why does this scheme feel so familiar?
Should I go or not?
I hesitated. I have a feeling that this trip won't be so simple.
But!
After all, I am a righteous person. In these two years, I have enjoyed various resources and benefits of the Immortal Palace.
Facing the small request of the palace master, I really can't bear to refuse!
So, after careful consideration, I made a decision that goes against my ancestors...
The diary ends here.
No need to say it.
Once again, it has caused a sensation among cultivators in Jiuzhou and major immortal mansions, leaving them wide-eyed.
Almost everyone is looking at the last few sentences of the diary.
They all have envy on their faces, and some even have slightly lewd smiles...
Tsk tsk tsk.
The witch often summons him, and it's in her personal palace and the Frozen Paradise?
The Frozen Paradise is a natural scenic spot within the Frozen Immortal Palace, rumored to have many breathtaking views.
And there's a Fairy Spirit Spring deep in the Frozen Immortal Palace? Heavenly Emperor of the Desolate Realm is truly fortunate!
Truly a person with luck that defies the heavens.
