The old man with the walking stick comforted Charlie, then turned to the four Temple Messengers and said, "Tell me the details of what happened."
"Esteemed hall elders, the situation is like this. We were hurrying back to the divine hall with the items and passed by Jensen's tribe along the way, so we stopped for a while. Jensen's tribe just happened to face a threat at that time. The three experts of the tribe were heavily injured, so Jensen took us to another tribe in an attempt to redeem ourselves. In the other tribe, the four of us were defeated by an extremely powerful person even when we worked together. He even took away all our Space Rings."
"That's right. Esteemed hall elders, not only did they take away our Space Rings, they even wanted to kill us. They don't take our Serpent God Hall seriously at all. They don't care about us at all." The two emissaries who liked to get on Jensen's good side spoke one after another. Their voices were filled with anger, as if the dignity of the Serpent God Hall was more important than anything else.
The old man with the walking stick looked at the silent Big Black and asked calmly, "Big Black, is what they said true?"
Blackie nodded and said, "Reporting to the honorable Divine Hall Elder, what they said is true."
"Then what are we waiting for? Send people to capture that person immediately. We must take back that item," Charlie immediately ordered.
The old man nodded slightly, "The existence of that item can't be leaked. Once the people of the Poseidon Hall and the Heaven's Spirit Hall learn about it, it'll be troublesome. As a result, we can't send too many people this time to avoid drawing attention. We can't send too many people, and we can't be too powerful either. Da Hei, what's the strength of the person who took away your Space Rings?"
Da Hei thought about it and said, "Esteemed hall elders, from my fight with him, his strength should be at the peak of the 14th Star. However, his battle prowess is extremely great, comparable to some 15th Star experts."
"If that's the case, we'll send two 15th Star elders to go with the four of you. It'll be easier to identify the two people," said the old man.
"Yes, esteemed Temple Elder," the four emissaries replied in unison.
"Remember, this is your only chance to redeem yourself. If you can get that item back, then everything will be fine. If you can't get that item back, then you'll have to suffer the Palace Master's wrath," Charlie said with a gloomy expression.
Charlie's harsh words made the four emissaries tremble. A strong sense of fear and unease rose up from their hearts, invading their minds and causing them to tremble uncontrollably.
At this moment, the four of them were filled with so much regret that their intestines turned green. If they had known this would happen, they wouldn't have acted like that in the first place.
…
Very soon, the four of them left the Serpent God Hall with the two 15th Star elders. They directly flew in the direction of the Dahl tribe.
While Jianchen and the other three were rushing towards the Dahl tribe, Jianchen and Nubis were not resting either. They were flying further away.
Jianchen held a map in his hand. As he hurried along, he checked their current location against the landscape to make sure that they would not get lost.
The two of them traveled several hundred thousand kilometers before finally stopping above a desolate forest. Jianchen looked around and murmured, "We're about seven hundred thousand kilometers away from the Dahl tribe.
"Now that we're seven to eight hundred thousand kilometers away from the Dahl tribe, we should be safe."
"Let's choose this place for now. We'll return to the Tian Yuan Continent once we have enough strength," said Jian Chen. Afterward, he descended with Jianchen and dug out a new cave to serve as a temporary dwelling.
At the same time, Jensen and the other four emissaries of the Sacred Hall arrived at the Dal tribe with two ordinary-looking old men. The few of them hovered high above the Dal tribe and shouted, "Where is the chief of the Dal tribe? Come out quickly."
Hearing the shout, the chief of the Dal tribe immediately walked out of the hall. When he saw that it was Jensen and the other three emissaries, his expression immediately changed slightly. Then he noticed the two extremely ordinary-looking old men floating behind the four of them. His heart sank again. He already had a bad premonition.
"I am the patriarch. May I ask what business you have with me?" The patriarch clasped his hands and spoke extremely politely.
"Where are the two of them? Where are they? Call them out." Jensen glared at the patriarch and called out. With the support of two 15th Star experts, they became much more confident.
"Esteemed emissaries of the divine hall, the two powerful warriors have already left. They are not in our tribe," the patriarch said modestly.
"What? They've left?"
The faces of Jansen and the other three emissaries immediately became unsightly.
"Where did they go? Where are they going?" This time, the person who spoke was an old man standing at the back.
The patriarch extended a hand and pointed in the direction Jianchen and Nuannuan had left. He said, "The two warriors left in that direction. I don't know where they're going either." Many people in the tribe had seen the direction Jianchen and Nuannuan had left. At this moment, the patriarch could only tell the truth. He did not dare to fool the people of the divine hall.
"Chase them!" The four emissaries and the two old men did not hesitate at all. They immediately pursued in the direction the patriarch had pointed.
At this moment, Jianchen and Nuannuan had already entered seclusion in the mountains several hundred thousand kilometers away. They did their best to increase their strength.
A hundred kilometers away from Jianchen, a white-robed young man with a rather sinister face carefully leapt through the forest. He erased his presence along the way as he quickly approached the cave Jianchen and Nuannuan cultivated in.
"I must obtain the divine water of the world. No matter where you run to, you won't be able to escape from me, Xie Wang." The young man's eyes were filled with determination. He was the expert who wanted to steal the divine water from Jianchen, Xie Wang.
Xie Wang had used some unknown method to locate Jianchen. He quickly approached the cave where Jianchen cultivated in seclusion. He completely concealed his presence and approached the cave silently. Using a special secret technique, he passed through the barrier outside the cave without alerting the owner. He successfully entered the cave and finally arrived at the cave where Jianchen cultivated in seclusion.
At this moment, Jianchen sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed. He seemed to have entered a deep state of cultivation. It was as if he had not noticed that someone had invaded his cultivation dwelling.
Xie Wang's heart had stopped beating. His body had also turned cold, perfectly blending with the surrounding temperature. It was as if he had become one with the world.
Standing in front of the cave, Xie Wang calmly stared at Jianchen who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. He thought to himself, "You're the weakest here, so it'll be easier to deal with you. Once I injure you, I'll use you to threaten the other person to hand over the divine water of the world." With this thought in mind, Xie Wang quietly approached Jianchen. Then, with lightning speed, he directly grabbed at Jianchen's heart.
Xie Wang's hand easily pierced through Jianchen's heart. However, his heart sank. He thought to himself, "An afterimage!"
Xie Wang's reaction was also very fast. He suddenly turned around and saw Jianchen standing there calmly. He was looking at him with a mocking gaze.
"Xie Wang, are you feeling uncomfortable from the beating last time? Are you asking for another beating?" A lazy voice came from outside the cave. Nubis, who lived in another cave, walked over with his arms crossed. He stood side by side with Jianchen.
Xie Wang's face turned ugly. He said in shock, "Impossible. I entered this place silently with my innate ability. How did you discover me?"
"You've been following us for a long time. I noticed you a long time ago. However, I have to say that your innate ability is really powerful. You can actually pass through the barrier we set up. If it was someone else, I'm afraid your sneak attack would have succeeded. Unfortunately, the person you met is me." Jianchen chuckled.
"I, Xie Wang, am unlucky!" Xie Wang gritted his teeth. Then, he directly charged into the sky. He smashed through the rocks and rushed out of the cave. He wanted to escape.
"You want to leave? Not so easy." Nubis sneered. He also copied Xie Wang and smashed through the rocks above his head. He rushed out of the cave and blocked Xie Wang's path.
Xie Wang stared coldly at Nubis and said in a deep voice, "Although I can't beat you, if I want to leave, you can't stop me."
"Is that so?" Nubis stared at Xie Wang with a mocking expression. He said, "You think you're the only one with innate ability and I, the great Nubis, don't have it?"
Xie Wang's face suddenly changed. He couldn't find anything to say. Jianchen also flew up from below. He said, "Xie Wang, you spent so much effort to follow us for hundreds of thousands of miles. Are you going to leave just like that? Don't you want your divine water of heaven and earth?"
Xie Wang snorted coldly and said nothing. However, he was thinking of a way to escape.
"I hope you're all alone. You want the divine water of heaven and earth to break through to the 15th Star of the Poseidon. How about this? Follow us from now on, and I'll be responsible for your breakthrough," Jianchen gently smiled.
A gleam of light flashed through Xie Wang's eyes when he heard that. He stared closely at Jianchen and said, "You want the divine water of heaven and earth as payment?"
"That's right," Jianchen said.
"You're willing to give me your divine water of heaven and earth?"
"No, I won't give you the divine water of the world on me. However, I can promise you that I'll obtain more divine water in fifty years at most. You'll definitely get a share of it," Jian Chen swore.
"The divine water of heaven and earth is produced once every thousand years. It's impossible to produce it again in fifty years. At the same time, the divine realm that produces the divine water is filled with danger. If you go in, you'll probably die," Xie Wang said with a deep voice.
"You don't need to worry about that. All you need to know is that I can give you the divine water of heaven and earth in fifty years at most," Jianchen said.
"Why should I believe you?"
"You can only choose to believe me because this might be your only chance at obtaining the divine water of heaven and earth."
Xie Wang fell silent. The light in his eyes flickered as if he was in an intense struggle. He did not have much time left. If he did not break through soon, he would only have around a hundred years left.
