Chapter 380: Chapter 380: The Hlai People’s Strange Behavior, Entering the Seal
“No, it’s not impossible.” just then, Skye spoke up.

He reminded Aureon, the Human Emperor, that Rex’s Witch Clan wasn’t only strong in body, but also had many secret techniques, including some related to the soul.

“You’re right, Skye.” Aureon nodded. “If someone had techniques similar to the Witch Clan’s soul secrets, they could greatly reduce the danger of Soul Transference.”

Johnnie took a deep breath. If what he guessed was true, then Aiden and Cameron must have had powerful soul techniques.

He remembered some things from before. When he tried to enter the Dark Forest and attacked the Six-Armed Demon, Aiden and Cameron had strongly opposed him.

At that time, he already felt they were trying to get something from him.

Now it looked like what they wanted was his body.

“Hmph, those two cowards. Even if they succeeded, they’d probably just hide somewhere after getting a new body!” Johnnie’s eyes flashed with cold anger.

They were strong, but they didn’t even fight. Now they wanted his body. Johnnie couldn’t stand it at all.

He wanted to find Aiden and Cameron right away and kill those two cowards.

“Johnnie, don’t act too quickly. Soul techniques are many, powerful, and strange. One mistake, and you could be in big trouble.” Aureon warned.

He said that Johnnie’s soul power was now almost as strong as the Dragon Soul, but acting recklessly was still dangerous.

Johnnie didn’t get angry. Aiden and Cameron didn’t know they were about to be exposed yet. He could use this chance to improve his strength and learn more information.

Then, Johnnie left the Map of Heaven and Earth, summoned his Void Sword, and flew with the Controlled Sword toward the place where Skye’s head was sealed.

It was the same familiar mist. As soon as Johnnie appeared in the fog, he sensed someone approaching.

The person’s aura felt a little familiar. Johnnie quickly realized who it was—Ansel, a descendant of Rex.

Sure enough, Ansel’s voice, carrying the power of a Lesser God, slowly said.”My lord.”

Johnnie took a close look at Ansel in the mist and noticed that the man was deliberately blocking his way forward.

Earlier, the Terra Lady had warned him that the Hlai people were up to something in secret.

Johnnie didn’t rush. He just asked calmly.”Has the seal on Skye’s head changed at all?”

Ansel shook his head. “No, my lord. Don’t worry. If anything changes, I’ll find a way to let you know right away.”

“I’ve made some progress. I’ll go to the sealing area first.” Johnnie said.

Ansel clearly froze. His body stayed still.

Johnnie frowned and was about to say something when Ansel suddenly took a step back, bent low, and said respectfully.

“My lord, the wind around the sealing area has become much stronger lately. You could wait a little. In a couple of days, it’ll be better.”

Johnnie didn’t care. He just waved his hand and moved forward.

He remembered that last time, the wind around the sealing area had been strong enough to hurt him. He had even used the Immortal Art Vajra Indestructibility.

But in the past few days, Johnnie’s strength had improved a lot. Even if the wind was stronger, he wasn’t afraid.

But Ansel’s sudden action made Johnnie suspicious. He had a feeling that Ansel was hiding something.

Soon, the mist was blown away by the howling winds.

Johnnie didn’t hesitate. He stepped straight into the wind.

Just as he was about to activate the Immortal Art Vajra Indestructibility, he noticed that the fierce winds now only left pale marks on his skin.

Behind him, Ansel’s eyes widened. His wrinkled skin twitched.

At that moment, Johnnie turned around and looked at him briefly.

Ansel’s face immediately lit up with a friendly smile as he said.”My lord, your strength has grown again. Maybe this time, you really can free Skye’s head from the seal.”

Johnnie thought for a moment and asked.”I remember you said the seal only appeared after Skye’s power kept disappearing.”

“Then why do I feel like this seal is actually protecting Skye’s head?”

Ansel’s expression froze for a second, but he quickly recovered.

“I’m not sure. We Hlai people have been guarding this place for generations. If there was any danger, we would definitely protect Skye’s head with everything we have.”

Johnnie didn’t ask any more questions. He felt like he was close to the truth.

As the two of them moved forward through the strong winds, they soon reached a small mountain above.

Many Hlai people appeared there, looking at Johnnie with some surprise.

Johnnie took a close look and noticed that there were several people here with the power of a Lesser God. Even two of them were at the level of a Core God.

But the last time he was here, these Hlai people hadn’t been this strong.

Johnnie frowned. He felt something strange in the air here, something that made him uncomfortable.

“Why are you all still standing there? Hurry up and move away! Johnnie has made new progress—he might be able to break the seal soon!” Ansel shouted loudly.

The Hlai people quickly scattered, but they didn’t go far. It seemed like they were slowly surrounding Johnnie.

Johnnie pretended not to notice anything. In his mind, he was already communicating with Red-Haired Ghost King Pax.

“Can the Soul-Nurturing Banner open a small entrance in the seal, let me in, and then close it again?” Johnnie asked.

Pax answered quickly.”Of course it can. The Soul-Nurturing Banner used to belong to the Terra Lady. As long as you want it, you can just make the seal disappear here.”

“That’s not necessary.” Johnnie said after getting the answer he wanted.

He still felt like the Hlai people were up to something bad. If he removed the seal right away, these people might try to attack him.

Johnnie’s current strength made it easy for him to deal with these Hlai people.

But he was worried about whether Skye’s head would be affected. After all, Johnnie felt that Terra Lady probably sealed Skye’s head in the first place because of these Hlai people.

If the Soul-Nurturing Banner couldn’t do what he just asked, he would have to think about leaving for a moment and then sneaking back in later.

Under the expectant eyes of the Hlai people around him, Johnnie took a deep breath and reached out. The Soul-Nurturing Banner appeared in his hand.

“Step back a bit. If I can’t break the seal, it might fight back.” he said.

The Hlai people didn’t move at first. They looked to Ansel for instructions.

Ansel nodded, and then they quickly stepped back.

They had moved about five hundred meters when Ansel asked.”My lord, is this far enough?”

“No, keep going!” Johnnie answered.

Ansel led the Hlai people even further back. Just as he was about to ask again, the Soul-Nurturing Banner in Johnnie’s hand suddenly flew up into the air.

At the same time, the seal that they had failed to open with any method before now had a gap large enough for a person to walk through.

“What? It’s really open! Great! Hahaha!” Ansel’s eyes widened in shock, and he instinctively became excited.

But as he looked at Johnnie, his eyes suddenly turned cold and filled with killing intent.

“Lord, you really did it!” Ansel shouted and quickly flew toward Johnnie.

Johnnie looked back at him, and without hesitation, he stepped into the seal.

The gap in the seal quickly closed. Ansel’s excited face froze completely.

“Lord, wait for us!”

“The seal is back to normal?!”

“Chief, what should we do?”

The other Hlai people were all stunned. They had never expected this to happen.

Ansel clenched his fists and spoke in a cold voice: “It seems this human has figured something out. Once he sees Skye’s head, everything we’ve been hiding will be uncovered.”

“Tell all the tribe members to gather here!”

“This kid, Johnnie, will have to come out eventually. When he does, we strike and kill him right away!”

…

In the sealed area, Johnnie turned back and watched the gap quickly return to normal. A small smile curved his lips.

After finding Skye’s head, he would finally know what the Hlai people were really planning.

And Skye would be able to regain his full body, leave The Map of Heaven and Earth, and deal with the Hlai people outside—something that would be much easier.

Johnnie started looking around. The place was surprisingly ordinary, just like any other mountain range.

He jumped onto his Void Sword and flew around the mountain with controlled movements, but he couldn’t find Skye’s head anywhere.

“Strange. There’s absolutely no strong energy here. There are living things, but the strongest is only at stage 9. Where is Skye’s head?” Johnnie floated in the air, frowning.

He quickly brought out The Map of Heaven and Earth and tried to communicate with Skye.

“What! You’re already inside the seal?” Skye suddenly sounded very excited.

Johnnie looked at him and said slowly.”But I still can’t find your head.”

“How is that possible?” Skye got worried. He told Johnnie to take out Skye’s big shield outside, so he could sense more clearly.

Johnnie did as told. But after a while, Skye still couldn’t find his own head.
