"In that case, let's go," Liu Chen said expressionlessly. Without hesitation, he turned and left, taking the Little Man Valley Immortal with him, exiting the independent space and leaving the Marketplace.
There was no need to search for the Green Claw Ghost Winged Lion, as Liu Chen had already placed it outside the Marketplace. This place was of great importance to Liu Chen now, serving as the core within his immortal aperture.
Outside the Marketplace, a powerful aura surged toward them. A massive, majestic Green Claw Ghost Winged Lion was crouched there, inspiring awe and fear.
Facing the terrifying pressure emitted by this Ancient Desolate Beast, even the habitually arrogant Little Man Valley Immortal couldn't help but be shocked.
At the same time, a trace of doubt rose in his heart: with Liu Chen's incredible combat strength, he could have easily seized the Green Wave Blessed Land, yet he merely followed those Demonic Path Gu Immortals in various lootings, which was truly puzzling.
"That Green Wave Blessed Land isn't worth me exposing such combat power!" Liu Chen's lips curled slightly, revealing a faint look of disdain, as if he had already seen through the Little Man Valley Immortal's thoughts.
While the Green Wave Blessed Land was indeed precious, the truly valuable resources within it had already been moved away by him earlier. The resources remaining there now, though still of some value, were a mere drop in the bucket compared to what he had plundered. After all, the current blessed land was just an empty shell, not worth fighting over.
More importantly, given his identity, if he truly tried to forcibly occupy the Green Wave Blessed Land, it would inevitably provoke the public wrath of the entire Northern Plains Righteous Path, making him a target for everyone's siege and condemnation. This would not only be more trouble than it was worth but could also bring endless trouble or even death upon himself, which was truly not a wise move.
Just then, the Little Man Valley Immortal, who had been looking around at the surroundings, suddenly cried out in surprise: "Marketplace? You actually possess the Marketplace! Since you have such a Supreme treasure, why did you abandon that Square Inch Mountain? If these two Heaven and Earth Secret Realms could be combined into one, it would be equivalent to giving a Gu Immortal an extra immortal aperture!" As he spoke, his gaze was locked onto the Immortal Path Great Formation built with the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm—Marketplace—as its core.
Although he did not yet understand the specific effects of this mysterious formation, he was well aware of the wonders of the Marketplace itself. Because of this, he asked in astonishment.
"The time is not yet right. Square Inch Mountain will fall into my hands sooner or later, but it still needs time," Liu Chen responded without hesitation, then took out the Mountain Union Immortal Gu (Pseudo) from his robes and continued: "With this, you should be able to sign that alliance agreement, right?"
Facing this Primeval Desolate Beast, the Little Man Valley Immortal pondered inwardly. He knew Liu Chen's strength was unfathomable, and comparing himself to the other was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally nodded helplessly in agreement, stating that as long as his clansmen's survival was ensured, it would be enough.
Seeing this, Liu Chen nodded with satisfaction and immediately took the Little Man Valley Immortal to a mountain peak that pierced the clouds within his Dream Dao immortal aperture.
Upon arriving at the destination, Liu Chen took out the Mountain Union Immortal Gu (Pseudo) and successfully had both parties sign this important alliance agreement.
With Liu Chen's current Information Path attainment, he had no need to worry about the Little Man Valley Immortal finding any loopholes to break this contract.
Just after everything was properly arranged, Liu Chen sent the Little Man Valley Immortal back to the original Marketplace.
After handling the matter of the Little Man Valley Immortal, Liu Chen thought to himself: "This trip to the Green Wave Blessed Land was truly a bountiful harvest!"
Especially the treasure box rewards he obtained from those Demonic Path Gu Immortals, the richness of which was beyond imagination. These treasure boxes contained various legacies, allowing Liu Chen's attainments in Wisdom Path, Rule Path, Ice Path, Water Path, Wind Path, and Lightning Path to improve rapidly.
However, among the many gains, the one that made Liu Chen most ecstatic was the Wisdom Path true inheritance from Dongfang Changfan.
Next was the Rule Path true inheritance obtained from the Little Man Valley Immortal—Zizai Scholar's Rule Path true inheritance. With just these two Rule Path true inheritances, his Rule Path attainment successfully broke through to the Grandmaster Realm. Among them were also two great killer moves: Minimize and Thousand Solutions.
And the most cherished of all was the immortal path killer move named'Square Inch Chaos' obtained from the Square Inch Mountain treasure box reward! Based on Square Inch Mountain, once someone is hit by it, the dao marks in their body that were originally coordinated and complementary would suddenly change: not only would they stop supporting each other, but they would also conflict and repel one another!
This unique effect left Liu Chen in awe; he couldn't help but marvel at how the world truly contains all sorts of wonders!
The Marketplace's killer move can promote the Fusion and mutual generation of dao marks, but Square Inch Mountain's killer move can make dao marks conflict and repel each other with greater intensity!
After obtaining this killer move, Liu Chen immediately realized it would likely become his fatal trump card against Fang Yuan's future Sovereign Immortal Fetus Body!
After this battle, Liu Chen also settled down.
Just arranging and processing those immortal materials took some effort, as did refining the immortal gu damaged in the legacies. These tasks alone took a lot of time. During this period, he also went through the motions of soul searching Dongfang Changfan's soul several times.
Until news came from Fang Yuan, expressing willingness to obtain that Wisdom Path true inheritance of Dongfang Changfan, though the price still needed to be negotiated between the two.
Ultimately, Fang Yuan paid a thirty percent share of Guts Gu, the restoration of the Transformation immortal gu remnant recipe, and the basic version of his Ten Thousand Selves killer move to complete the trade.
Once Fang Yuan handed the Transformation Immortal Gu recipe to him, Liu Chen also signed a new alliance agreement with Fang Yuan.
"Big brother! Our Jun Tian Sword Sect is truly down on its luck! This Immortal Crane Sect is becoming more and more arrogant and overbearing, treating us like a thorn in their side. It's one thing for them to bully us like this, but even the other Ten Great Ancient Sects are ignoring us and watching from the sidelines! In this situation, what are we supposed to do?" Miao Yue, the Second Supreme Elder of the Jun Tian Sword Sect, said with a face full of worry, sighing as he complained to his brother, Miao Jun, the Supreme Grand Elder of the Jun Tian Sword Sect, via voice transmission.
Upon hearing this, Miao Jun also felt very helpless and distressed: "Indeed, it's all because those people under Mr. Big didn't clean up their tracks! They actually let that He Fengyang escape. Now, the other side has concluded that we are colluding with the Defiant Organization. Otherwise, with the strength of our Jun Tian Sword Sect, how could we have fallen to such a miserable and wretched state!"
Since the failed ambush on He Fengyang, the Immortal Crane Sect had been suppressing the Jun Tian Sword Sect like crazy, putting immense pressure on the brothers Miao Yue and Miao Jun.
Back then, the reason they leaked the news about He Fengyang was simply to use the Defiant Organization's hand to strike at the arrogant Immortal Crane Sect. Who would have thought things would go against their wishes? Not only did they fail to achieve their goal, but they also brought trouble upon themselves, playing with fire and getting burned!"
