The piercing whistling sound swept across the sky, and the Wind God Roc's formidable aura made the ordinary Spiritual Beasts below freeze up, causing the timid ones to lose control of their bowels.
"Greetings, Guest Elder."
Retracting the Wind God Roc, Chen Jiuge imdiately saluted the man before him, who resembled an old farr yet was the Five Mountains Venerable.
"No need for formalities. You are a friend of Tian Yue, so I am sowhat like your elder as well. Let's talk about the current situation." The Five Mountains Venerable said kindly.
"Yes."
"The battle has already ended. Thunder God Temple lost more than three hundred Wind and Thunder Guards and a Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal Wind and Thunder Guard General, while nine Curse Body Warriors of the Xue Family were lost. However, the leading Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal withdrew."
"Additionally, among the disciples that invaded earlier, about fifty remain. Approximately thirty were taken away by Ye Cheng."
Chen Jiuge reported the outcos one by one, and the Five Mountains Venerable's eyes lit up: "Very impressive. What are your losses?"
With a bitter smile, Chen Jiuge said heavily: "It's hard to say the exact number, but the losses are significant. Next ti, if more than a hundred Heavenly Immortals invade from Thunder God Temple, I fear we won't be able to hold them off."
"Such significant losses?" The Five Mountains Venerable was well aware of Chen Jiuge's Beast Taming Ability. With the resources sent from No.1 City, close to two hundred ordinary Heavenly Immortal practitioners could be cultivated. When converted to Spiritual Beasts and with Chen Jiuge's ability, this number was far from just that many.
"I will report this matter, and another batch of resources will be sent to you in due ti," the Five Mountains Venerable promised.
"Master, Junior Chen, shouldn't we first find Senior Brother Gu and Dark Centipede Elder?" Tian Yue interjected.
"No need, I have already found them. They should be in a Secret Realm, but there's sothing odd about this Secret Realm, containing an aura that makes my heart tremble. It seems like a True Dragon?"
At the end of his words, the Five Mountains Venerable hesitated. True Dragons care little for such small matters in the expansion zones. They hold an exceptionally high status in the Demon Domain and even have nurous industries in many other areas, unrivaled in wealth.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three changed. Sothing that could make a Golden Immortal's heart quiver couldn't be an equal-level Cultivator. It could only be an even stronger Great Power, possibly a Daluo and a True Dragon Daluo with exceedingly strong combat strength?
"Leave Gu Zhengyu to . Regarding the cooperation between the Xue Family and Thunder God Temple, I will report it, and your rewards will be issued."
"When I return, I will assign additional personnel to assist you in guarding the Death Dark Zone."
"Yes."
The three of them acknowledged.
.......
In the Secret Realm
Gu Zhengyu could no longer maintain his cold deanor. He licked his dry lips and cautiously looked at the swaying Yellow Dragon, "Senior, I still have urgent matters to attend to. Could you let us leave first?"
"Hmm?" Yellow Dragon's eyes narrowed slightly, and the pressure belonging to a Daluo imdiately brought the two to their knees.
Feeling it was not appropriate, Yellow Dragon withdrew his aura and said indifferently, "You've ntioned before, this seat has also heard of the Five Elents Sect. A re Thunder God Temple, even with the Beast God Sect's secret assistance, poses no threat."
"Senior....."
Gu Zhengyu wanted to refute, but Yellow Dragon, growing sowhat impatient, waved his sleeve: "The Five Elents Sect is an ancient sect, and its origin is the sa as the current Reincarnation Sacred Land in the True Realm. Do you think a re Beast God Sect or any Thunder God Temple can compare to the Reincarnation Sacred Land?"
"Reincarnation Sacred Land?" Dark Centipede Elder said dazedly.
"Would this seat deceive you? Also, the Thunder God Temple's intrusion you were worried about has been resolved by your fellow disciples."
Seeing Gu Zhengyu's delighted expression, Yellow Dragon said with ill intent, "Kid, your fellow disciples are hiding a lot. Don't you feel disappointed?"
"According to you, you are a Core Disciple. Regardless of status or cultivation level, you surpass him. Don't you want to know his secrets?"
"Secrets?" Gu Zhengyu's eyes were montarily lost, then he shook his head and smiled, "He's my junior, and also my friend. That's enough. Which Cultivator doesn't have secrets?"
Gu Zhengyu's response made Yellow Dragon and Dark Centipede Elder freeze for a mont.
"To cultivate to the Heavenly Immortal level with such a mindset, I've really underestimated you." Yellow Dragon sighed, then weakly waved his hand, "It's impossible to leave. It's not that I won't let you go, but that this place cannot open a passage for exit."
"How can that be, Senior, how can your cultivation not allow you to leave?" Dark Centipede Elder looked incredulous. If they couldn't leave, what would happen to him?
The path ahead had roughly been cut off, and he had hoped to render great service to the Five Elents Sect, secure a resource zone, and expand.
"No, perhaps it's really impossible to leave." Gu Zhengyu was more familiar with the rules of the Golden Desert than Dark Centipede Elder because he had read all the data the Five Elents Sect had collected.
"Senior, are you a Daluo?" Gu Zhengyu asked cautiously.
"Yes." Yellow Dragon did not deny it and instead nodded affirmatively.
"Then it really is impossible to leave." Gu Zhengyu smiled bitterly.
The Golden Desert can only accommodate Golden Immortals. Previously, Golden Immortals could still act, but now they must constantly control their power to avoid the descent of Heavenly Punishnt. A Daluo simply cannot appear in the Golden Desert, for the Dao does not permit it.
"Calm down, calm down. You are much better off than . I have spent endless years alone, but you have , and we can chat. When I'm in a good mood, I can even guide your cultivation. Doesn't that sound like a good deal?"
