"Greetings, seniors."
Seeing the Sacred Lord leave, Fang Qiu hurriedly bowed to the elders of the Source of Qi and then focused his eyes on the old master and asked, "Old master, why are you here?"
After confirming that the Sacred Lord's aura had completely disappeared, the elders of the Source of Qi looked away from the direction where the Sacred Lord had left.
"We were worried that the Sacred Lord would take action."
The old man smiled and said, "Although we've only just arrived, we've been paying attention to the situation here since the day you set off. Once there's any movement, we'll rush over immediately. When the others who came to help returned to the Qi Source, we guessed that the Nirvana Holy Lord might appear, so we came together."
"I didn't expect that he would come!"
Fang Qiu understood.
He knew what the clone base meant to the Nirvana Organization, and he could naturally predict how important the Sacred Lord would be to the clone base.
This was also the reason why Fang Qiu didn't choose to leave directly after the battle but chose to stay.
He knew that the six Venerables, as the military counselors of the Nirvana Organization, would never easily give up such an important clone base.
Moreover, the six Venerables' escape was too sudden. In that case, he couldn't keep anything or take anything with him. After all, after losing the protection of the Sacred Lord and the scarlet formation, it was too easy for Fang Qiu to kill him, so he didn't care about anything else in order to escape.
Therefore.
Fang Qiu decided to stay. Whether he was absorbing the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the depths of the sea or underground, his Divine Consciousness was always covering the ruins of the clone base.
After cultivating for a day and a night, he finally caught the six Venerables.
But unexpectedly.
At the last moment when he was about to kill the six Venerables, the Sacred Lord actually came in person.
There was no need to think too much.
Fang Qiu knew that the Sacred Lord's arrival was definitely related to the six Venerables. It was very likely that the six Venerables had asked for help in advance, so the Sacred Lord came.
After all, according to the previous situation of snatching the Qi of Heaven and Earth, the Sacred Lord should be at the North Pole.
Even for him, it would take some time to get from the North Pole to the South Pole.
"Fortunately, he left."
Looking into the distance, Master Yao took a deep breath and said, "Even if he is injured, we are no match for him if we really fight to the death."
"Humph."
The Chop King coldly snorted and said, "Do you think he has no concerns?"
"What is he worried about?"
Asked Fang Qiu.
"You."
Sima Chan said.
"Me?"
Fang Qiu was stunned.
"Yes."
The old man nodded with a smile and explained, "He didn't live for a hundred years in vain. He knows that if we fight here, we old fellows will do everything we can to attack him. If he was at his peak, he wouldn't need to be afraid of us, but he's injured. It's impossible for him to defeat us in his current state, so he's afraid that we'll fight him to the death, afraid that we'll aggravate his injury."
"Although we are no match for him, and it is impossible for us to heavily injure him like we did a hundred years ago, we are still capable of worsening his injuries."
Sima Chan continued, "Based on the characteristics of the demonic arts he cultivates, he must go into hibernation to recuperate once he's injured. Even if we can't heavily injure him or force him into hibernation for another hundred years, the world is different now because of you."
"You've only been in martial arts for a few years, but you've already reached this stage. If you're given a few more years, what will you be like?"
"Nirvana Holy Lord knows that as long as you're given enough time to grow, you'll become his biggest threat. Therefore, he'd rather let you go than change his plan. To him, February 2nd is not only the day of the battle, but also the day to get rid of his biggest threat, which includes you!"
Hearing that.
Fang Qiu understood.
He didn't expect that the elders and Nirvana Sacred Lord would place so much importance on him.
All this while, Fang Qiu had been very clear-headed and tried to maintain his calmness at all times. Therefore, he always felt that he was an ant in the eyes of Nirvana Holy Lord.
Every time he encountered Nirvana Holy Lord, the situation was exactly the same.
He didn't expect that he would become the biggest threat to Nirvana Holy Lord.
Fang Qiu took a deep breath.
The more it was like this, the more calm he had to be, and the greater the pressure on his shoulders!
"Alright, let's go."
Master Yao waved his hand and said, "We shouldn't stay here for a long time. We must hurry back to the source of Qi as soon as possible."
The elders nodded and were ready to leave.
"Wait."
Just as the elders were about to turn around and leave, Fang Qiu suddenly said, "There's one more thing."
"Hmm?"
The elders were puzzled.
"This is the location of the Nirvana Organization's cloning base. There are a lot of energy jades buried underground. Judging from the terrain, Antarctica is not connected to any normal continent, so there shouldn't be so many energy jades."
Fang Qiu said, "It's impossible to transport them here by manpower alone. In that case, there will be a lot of movement and it'll be easily discovered. However, Nirvana Organization has been hiding this place very well, which proves that they shouldn't have transferred the energy jades. Therefore, I guess there must be an energy jade mine somewhere in Antarctica for Nirvana Organization to mine."
The elders all nodded when they heard that.
They also agreed with this.
"Now, the Qi of Heaven and Earth has disappeared. Outside the source of Qi, there's no way to replenish internal Qi anywhere in the world, so energy jades are particularly important."
Speaking of this, Fang Qiu rolled his eyes and continued to add, "The Antarctic Continent is an undeveloped continent. There is a layer of ice as thick as a thousand meters. There may be a lot of energy jades in the land under the ice. We can't give these energy jades to Nirvana Organization for nothing. If we don't take these energy jades away, Nirvana Organization will definitely come here again soon and dig all the energy jades away."
"That's right."
The old master nodded in agreement and said, "The importance of energy jades is self-evident. These energy jades will have a great impact on the final battlefield in the future."
"That makes sense."
Grandmaster Yao also nodded and said, "Many of my mechanisms and formations require energy jades. Although I still have a lot of reserves, for things like energy jades, the more the better."
Sima Chan and Chop King also nodded in agreement.
"Are we going to search the entire Antarctic Continent?"
Chop King asked.
"I'll do it."
Fang Qiu volunteered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately flew out while quickly activating his Divine Consciousness to explore the surrounding situation.
In fact, the area of the entire Antarctic Continent was not too large. With Fang Qiu's speed, he could indeed go around the entire Antarctic Continent in the shortest time.
Of course. Fang Qiu first ruled out the outer area.
It was obviously impossible for those places occupied by scientific research institutes from all over the world to have an energy jade mine. Otherwise, it would have been discovered long ago.
Therefore.
Fang Qiu directly rushed into the depths of the Antarctic Continent.
Wherever he passed, he directly controlled his Divine Consciousness to continuously penetrate into the ground under the ice layer.
Soon after.
Just as Fang Qiu controlled his Divine Consciousness to explore the depths of the ground, a very subtle Qi of Heaven and Earth suddenly appeared in Fang Qiu's perception.
"Eh?"
When sensing that subtle Qi of Heaven and Earth, Fang Qiu suddenly smiled.
There was no trace of Qi of Heaven and Earth in this world. Where did this trace of Qi of Heaven and Earth come from?
Without a doubt.
Energy jade mine!
Without hesitation, Fang Qiu immediately flew in the direction of that trace of Qi of Heaven and Earth.
After a while, several energy auras entered the range of his Divine Consciousness.
"Nirvana?"
The moment he detected these energy auras, Fang Qiu knew that the people who emitted the energy auras were from the Nirvana Organization.
"It seems that I guessed right."
Fang Qiu smiled.
At first, he was just assuming. He did not firmly believe that there was really an energy jade mine on the Antarctic Continent. Anyway, the battle here was over, so he just wanted to explore it by the way.
Who would have thought that he would really be able to find it?
Without hesitation.
Fang Qiu immediately rushed over.
When he came to the place where the trace of Qi of Heaven and Earth appeared, Fang Qiu really sensed the existence of the energy jade mine. And the place where those Nirvana Cultivators were located was at the edge of the coastline of the Antarctic Continent. There was a mine there. There were about ten Nirvana Cultivators in the cave, and there were five black-robed men guarding outside the cave.
Without hesitation, Fang Qiu directly took action.
These were the most ordinary and lowest black-robed men, who could not even go to the battlefield.
Therefore, killing them was effortless.
Almost in an instant, these black-robed men had completely left this world before they even figured out what had happened.
After killing these people, Fang Qiu immediately contacted the old master and the others.
Soon, everyone gathered.
"I didn't expect that there would really be an energy jade mine here."
Seeing the energy jade mine, Sima Chan was slightly stunned. Then he let out a long breath, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes.
"I'll immediately contact the Sword Garret and ask them to send people over to take over."
As he spoke, Master Yao immediately took out his mobile phone and quickly dialed Elder Qian's number.
Although there was no signal here in Antarctica, the elders were equipped with satellite phones prepared by the country, so they could be connected no matter where they were.
Soon.
Under the arrangement of Master Yao, the Sword Garret arranged people to take over the mine as soon as possible. At the same time, Elder Qian discussed with several countries in South Mi Continent and dispatched ships from various countries to Antarctica. At the same time, he also asked the largest port in South Mi Continent to be ready to open a new route. They were going to first transport the energy jade from Antarctica to South Mi Continent, and then directly transport it from South Mi Continent back to the source of Qi.
Under the joint discussion of Elder Qian and the people in charge of various countries, the whole new route was quickly decided.
On the other side.
Fang Qiu called Li Ji and asked him to go to the cultivation base and bring the Tianshan Rat Hare over.
That little guy was very sensitive to the Qi of Heaven and Earth.
