"Master, I have not failed my mission!" the Bronze Crane Formation Spirit immediately claimed credit cheerfully, its voice crisp and pleasant, like a spring breeze brushing past the ears.
Liu Chen nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction. He carefully threw the Flying Frost Antelope into his immortal aperture, then gently stroked the feathers of the Bronze Crane Formation Spirit, signaling it to land on his shoulder. Next, he reached out and lifted the miniature bronze palace, feeling the powerful force contained within.
"No problem, leave everything to me! Screech..." The Bronze Crane Formation Spirit let out an excited cry, seemingly full of confidence for the upcoming task.
Liu Chen smiled faintly and waved his arm; countless crystal-clear clusters of ice flowers drifted down like snowflakes and were collected by him.
After he turned and left, the originally bustling cold pond became empty, with only the calm water surface and the surrounding cold stone walls remaining, as if nothing had ever happened.
Relying on the power of the Soul Sealing Demon Suppression Immortal Formation, Liu Chen successively succeeded in subduing the Ancient Desolate Beasts, the Commoner Jellyfish and the Divination Tortoise. While other resource points still had some ordinary desolate beasts, compared to these Ancient Desolate Beasts with special abilities, they were truly not valuable targets.
"Hard work, we should head back," Liu Chen said softly, looking tenderly at the Bronze Crane Formation Spirit on his shoulder. Then, with a thought, he withdrew the Soul Sealing Demon Suppression Immortal Formation into his immortal aperture, preparing to set out on the return journey.
Next, he summoned the Flying Blue Whale, a desolate beast that hadn't appeared for a long time, and set off atop it toward the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, Square Inch Mountain. Simultaneously, utilizing the Flying Blue Whale's innate talent, all sorts of valley materials and Gu Worms along the way were directly sucked into the Flying Blue Whale's body and then collected by Liu Chen into his immortal aperture.
"Immortal Path Killer Move: Shadowless Flying Kite!"
Liu Chen rode the Flying Blue Whale, galloping past like a bolt of blue lightning. In that fleeting moment, countless invisible paper kites suddenly emerged from his immortal aperture, appearing endless.
These invisible paper kites were extremely fast, like ghosts, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye. With Liu Chen as the center, they spread out rapidly in a fan shape, transmitting and converging everything they saw into his eyes.
Inside the Green Wave Blessed Land at this time, a fierce battle was in full swing. Various Gu Immortals were engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the Immortal Gu House, the Thatched Hut, either fiercely attacking Square Inch Mountain or Demonic Path Gu Immortals slaughtering each other to snatch various precious resources.
For a time, the sounds of shouting and explosions rose and fell, echoing throughout the entire blessed land.
Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan were not to be outdone either, charging directly into the center of the battlefield to engage in a fierce confrontation with the Little Man Valley Immortals. However, despite their extraordinary strength, breaking through the enemy's defensive line and invading Square Inch Mountain was by no means an easy task.
Because within Square Inch Mountain sat a powerful Rank 7 Little Man Valley Immortal. Relying on the uniquely endowed Heaven and Earth Secret Realm and defensive measures like the exceptionally sturdy Immortal Gu House, the Thatched Hut, he was actually able to withstand the siege of numerous Demonic Path Gu Immortals, consistently maintaining the upper hand.
At the same time, Fang Yuan was also not to be underestimated. Relying on his terrifying combat power, he ran rampant through the blessed land, wantonly plundering various rare treasures. His ruthless methods were truly appalling.
The investigative paper kites released flew through the sky like bolts of lightning, covering the entire Green Wave Blessed Land in an instant. These small and exquisite paper kites seemed endless; they nimbly wove through forests and grass, carefully searching every corner and not letting a single clue slip by.
Meanwhile, Liu Chen made no secret of his goal, speeding straight toward the depths of the Green Wave Blessed Land.
He knew very well that a mysterious and precious treasury was hidden there—the immortal material storehouse of the Dongfang Tribe! This treasury contained countless valley materials...
"There's actually a Flying Blue Whale? Does this Dongfang Tribe have some kind of connection with the Eastern Sea?" To the side, the Gu Immortal Niu Lang widened his eyes, shouting to his friend beside him in total disbelief.
One must know that a desolate beast like the Flying Blue Whale usually only inhabits the vast and boundless territories of the Eastern Sea. Yet now, such a gargantuan creature had abruptly appeared in the Dongfang Tribe's blessed land; how could it not arouse suspicion?
"That Flying Blue Whale is actually plundering the blessed land's resources!" The Gu Immortal Broken Wolf stared into the distance, a flash of surprise in his eyes as he thought to himself: "Looking at this, it must be the work of a Gu Immortal who has mastered Enslavement Path methods! Such a technique is truly brilliant to the extreme."
After a period of observation, Broken Wolf had already discerned the special ability this desolate beast possessed—as a Space Path desolate beast, it could directly use Space Path methods to obtain resources, which was undoubtedly much more convenient than the methods they were accustomed to using.
At this time, the other Gu Immortal, Niu Lang, was also staring intently at the majestic Flying Blue Whale high in the sky, his eyes revealing strong greed. He licked his lips and then turned to his companion, saying: "Brother, in my opinion, why don't we just kill this Flying Blue Whale? That way, not only can we obtain a considerable amount of precious immortal materials, but we can also eliminate this threat in one fell swoop. Why not do it?" After speaking, Niu Lang looked at Broken Wolf with anticipation, seemingly hoping the other would immediately nod in agreement to his proposal.
The Gu Immortal Broken Wolf quickly explained with a solemn expression: "You must realize, if we were just facing a single Flying Blue Whale, we might be able to handle it easily. But if we have to clash with the controlling Gu Immortal at the same time, then even if we narrowly achieve victory in the end, we would likely be too exhausted to fight on, let alone continue competing for this Green Wave Blessed Land. Doing this is simply not worth it!"
As he spoke, he vigilantly observed his surroundings. After all, they weren't the only two people in this place. If they accidentally got into a conflict and fight with someone else, even if they ultimately won the battle, it was very likely they would be taken advantage of by others who had been coveting the spoils for a long time!
Hearing these words from Broken Wolf, Niu Lang couldn't help but feel a pang of regret, unable to stop himself from sighing: "Sigh... what a true shame!" His eyes, which had originally flickered with greedy light, were now fixed deathly on the massive Flying Blue Whale before him, unwilling to look away for a long time.
However, at that very moment, the Flying Blue Whale that had been galloping toward the distance suddenly turned around without any warning and vanished without a trace at an incredible speed!
"Not good!" Witnessing this, a bone-chilling coldness suddenly surged in Niu Lang's heart. His expression changed drastically as he cried out in alarm, while simultaneously warning the person beside him: "Careful! Something seems wrong..."
Before his voice had even faded, by the time Broken Wolf regained his senses, he found that he and Niu Lang were somehow standing in a desolate and miserable strange land, filled with broken remnant swords everywhere on the ground.
What shocked them even more was that over a dozen cold-glinting immortal swords were actually suspended directly above their heads! Each of these immortal swords was transformed from an immortal gu, emitting a heart-palpitatingly powerful aura. Their terrifying majesty was truly inconceivable and hair-raising!
One must know that they had been Gu Immortals for over two hundred years, yet despite going through countless hardships, they had never managed to obtain even a single immortal gu. Now, suddenly seeing so many incomparably precious immortal gu within reach, how could they not be shocked to the core?
