"You're going to fight for the Saints' Fruit?" Honglian stared at Jianchen as she spoke with a pleasant voice.
"Yes, I have to fight for the Saints' Fruit. Senior Ruijin, senior Honglian, I don't know if I'll survive this trip. I'll leave the White Tiger behind before I go to the Death Nest. I'll have to trouble seniors to look after the White Tiger in the future," Jian Chen said seriously. He had always believed that Ruijin and the other two were only by his side to protect the young Winged Tiger.
"Since you want to go to the Death Nest, the three of us will go with you. We all have armor and weapons that contain origin energy, so even the Holy Emperor can't do anything to us. With us by your side, your chances of obtaining the Saints' Fruit will be much greater," said Ruijin.
"These vengeful spirits should be items of supreme yin while my flames are items of supreme yang. They just happen to counter these vengeful spirits. As long as the powerful existence that Poseidon spoke of doesn't appear, I don't think the vengeful spirits will be able to threaten us," Honglian expressed her opinion as well.
"Thank you for your assistance, seniors." Jianchen was immediately overjoyed when he saw how Ruijin and the other two were willing to risk their lives in the Death Nest with him. With the assistance of three experts who could rival the Holy Emperor, the journey ahead would be much easier without a doubt.
Jianchen left the artifact space. After he left, Honglian gently sighed, "Jianchen's life is even more precious than ours. We'd rather be injured than let him die."
Ruijin also gently sighed when he heard that. Melancholy filled his face as he said, "We have no relatives, no friends, and no one we know in the outside world. Even our homeland has become a cemetery for the walking dead. Our clansmen are nowhere to be found, but Jianchen is our only hope of finding our clansmen. As a result, we can't let anything happen to him before he becomes powerful, or we'll never be able to return to our clansmen."
"Ruijin, do you really believe that Jianchen can lead us to our missing clansmen? Our clansmen and the ancient divine beast Winged Tiger have suddenly vanished. They might no longer be in this world. Does Jianchen really have the ability to do that?" Honglian stared at Ruijin closely.
"Even if you don't believe in Jianchen, you should believe in the Winged Tiger. Since the Winged Tiger said that Jianchen can lead us back to our clansmen, he must have his reasons. Moreover, there's nothing else we can do aside from that. This is our only hope of finding our clansmen," said Ruijin.
"Before we go to the Death Nest, I need to make a trip to the sea realm. Tie Ta, it's best if you stay in Mercenary City during this time. Your body is just too eye-catching. I'm afraid that some old people who know about the legends of the ancient times will recognize you," Jianchen said to Tie Ta. He was truly worried for Tie Ta.
Tie Ta shook his head, "Jianchen, many more powerful mysteries of war have appeared in my head. I feel like they're even more powerful than Saint Tier Battle Skills, and I've also obtained some powerful mysteries of war and experience from uncle Ruijin himself. I'm no longer afraid of the protector clans, but I want to go to the Death Nest with you and travel the world with you." Tie Ta said seriously. His eyes were filled with desire. He had desired to travel the world with Jianchen for a very long time. In the past, he was not powerful enough, so he would only be a burden to Jianchen. Now that he was powerful enough, he obviously would not give up on this opportunity.
Jianchen thought about it. He knew that Tie Ta's current battle prowess was probably no weaker than his, and considering that Tie Ta had grown far too quickly and lacked experience and knowledge, he just agreed. He said, "Alright, once I return from the sea realm, I'll take you to the Death Nest with me."
Tie Ta was overjoyed. He smiled foolishly and said, "Then I'll go home first. Jianchen, remember to call me when you go to the Death Nest."
"This place is too far away from the Tian Yuan Continent. I'll ask senior Black Fish to construct a Space Gate for you to return," said Jianchen.
"There's no need. I can return by myself." Tie Ta waved his hand and declined Black Fish's help. He then called out, "Mysteries of War, Space-shattering Avatar!" A dazzling golden light surged from Tie Ta's body.
Afterward, he turned into a golden streak of light and shot forward with lightning-like speed. Several hundred meters later, the space up ahead cracked, and a black hole appeared. Tie Ta charged into the black hole, enveloped by a dense layer of golden light, and disappeared.
"What! He's actually using his body to smash through space?" Black Fish was shocked as he cried out uncontrollably. Even Jianchen became dumbfounded, unable to return to his senses even after quite a while.
Tie Ta walked a different path of cultivation. He did not need to comprehend the mysteries of the world. Although he was unable to tear through space, he had another method that was similar to Space Gates.
"Space Gates can only be constructed in stable space, and they can't be attacked after they're constructed, or they'll collapse. However, Tie Ta's ability doesn't seem to have any restrictions. Even when experts are fighting, he can still leave freely when space collapses. T- this is much more powerful than Space Gates," Black Fish sighed in amazement.
"The abilities of the warring gods are actually so terrifying. Tie Ta is only at the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, yet he doesn't fear the protector clans. In the ancient times, the war god Ruijin had already surpassed the Holy Emperor, yet even someone as powerful as him was slain by the Winged Tiger. The Winged Tiger really is unbelievably powerful," Jianchen sighed inside.
Afterward, Jianchen headed to the sea realm. Although the barrier of the sea realm prevented foreign Holy Emperor experts from entering, it was cast down by Poseidon after all. Through his relationship with Poseidon, Jianchen was obviously not restricted at all. He passed through the barrier without any obstructions.
Jianchen's main objective for his trip to the sea realm this time was the divine water of the world. He had learned from the sword spirits that the water could heal the aftereffects of Honglian's Rising From Flames.
Back in the Cross Mountains, the Holy Emperor and the path lord of carnal desires had worked together to attack him. Honglian had been killed several times by the Holy Emperor and revived through Rising From Flames. The aftereffects had caused her strength to fall to the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor. Honglian's flames of supreme yang were the bane of vengeful spirits, so it was extremely likely that she would be the main force of the three of them. As a result, Jianchen wanted to obtain the divine water of the world to recover Honglian's strength and increase their chances of victory.
After all, they were not facing the Holy Emperor this time. Instead, they were facing a group of vengeful spirits of ancient Holy Emperor. Even though they were not as powerful as they were before they were revived, there were so many of them that even Jianchen felt pressured.
A figure descended from the sky in a desolate mountain range in the sea realm. He stood on the highest peak and looked around.
With a flip of his hand, Jianchen pulled out a map of the sea realm from his Space Ring. He found his current location based on the terrain. He was currently in the Poseidon Hall, only a few hundred thousand kilometers away from the territory of the Turtle clan.
Swish!
Jian Chen turned into a blur and left. He used the Illusory Flash to travel towards the Turtle clan's territory like he was chasing after the stars and the moon.
"Greetings to the ruler!"
Jianchen returned to the Turtle clan. As soon as he passed through the main entrance, the guards at the entrance all knelt down on one knee and called out in unison. Their voices were filled with respect from the bottom of their hearts.
Although Jianchen had been gone for several years, his prestige in the Turtle clan was still extremely great. Basically everyone knew him.
The return of the ruler of the Turtle clan who had left for several years immediately caused quite a stir in the clan. Immediately, all the elders gathered in the discussion hall, regardless of whether they were busy or not. Even a few elders who were in seclusion emerged.
Soon after Jianchen returned to the Turtle clan, a white-haired old man bowed in the supreme divine hall within the territory of the Poseidon Hall. He said, "Esteemed guest elder, the ruler of the Turtle clan has returned."
Inside the hall, a woman in green was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed. She was floating in the air two meters above the ground. The woman was extremely beautiful. Her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, covering half of her face.
Suddenly, the woman's tightly shut eyes snapped open. Immediately, two rays of light shot out from her eyes, disappearing in a flash. Her eyes were extremely bright, like twinkling stars. They vaguely possessed a strange attraction that could shake people's souls.
"I understand. You are dismissed," Qing Yixuan said. Her voice was cold and emotionless.
"Yes, esteemed guest elder," an old voice rang out from outside before the old man silently retreated.
Before long, an azure-clothed figure left the supreme divine hall. He moved extremely quickly, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.
Jianchen wore a set of blue robes in the Turtle clan as he casually sat on the throne. Below him, the elders of the Turtle clan sat to the two sides in an orderly fashion. They reported the recent developments of the Turtle clan to Jianchen one by one.
"Ruler, with the assistance of the three elders, Lan Jing, Xin Pian, and Mochas, it has been extremely smooth for our clan to reclaim the crystal coin mines we stole in the past. We've reclaimed most of them already, and the remaining mines are all large mines of excellent quality. They produce an extremely large amount of supreme quality crystal coins, and they're all occupied by a few large clans."
"Those large clans are extremely powerful. Not only do they have several 15th Star experts, but they even have 16th Star experts. The ancestor of one of the clans is even close to the peak of the 16th Star. He's an elder of the Poseidon Hall, and there are even rumors that he'll become a hall elder before long."
"We've tried to negotiate with them many times during this period of time, asking them to return the mines that belong to us, but we've been rejected every single time. There have even been a few small-scale conflicts. Even the three elders, Lan Jing, Xin Pian, and Mochas, have been injured."
Lan Jing, Xin Pian, and Mochas were the three disciplinary elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall who had hunted down Jianchen in the past. However, they had been subdued by Jianchen and were now working for him.
"Which clan does the expert who's about to become a hall elder belong to?" Jianchen asked. He paid close attention to the expert. Only Holy Emperor at Great Perfection could become a hall elder, so the expert was about to reach Great Perfection.
