"We were a step too late. They've actually entered the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. Should we continue to chase after them?" One of the elders watched Jianchen and Charlie leave and asked with a heavy voice.
The other old man pondered for a while before replying, "We can't enter the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall without permission. Let's report this to the hall elders and wait for them to discuss it with the people of the Heaven's Spirit Hall before taking action."
Afterwards, the two elders of the Serpent God Hall immediately reported the matter to the hall elders. When Charlie and Jensen's master, Bai Yan, learned that Jianchen and the others had entered the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall with the item, his face immediately became stern. He frowned heavily. "It's going to be troublesome.
I hope the people of the Heaven's Spirit Hall don't learn about the existence of that item, or we'll probably need the hall master to personally take it back. However, if that happens, a conflict will be unavoidable between our Serpent God Hall and the Heaven's Spirit Hall. At the same time, the Poseidon hall will definitely not allow that item to exist. If the hall master learns about it, she'll definitely mobilize all the forces in the territory to destroy it. They definitely won't allow it to exist, "Charlie said with a heavy voice. He was extremely stern.
"Right now, I just hope that the people who took it don't know about its secret. At the same time, the people of the Heaven's Spirit Hall don't know about it either. That way, we might still have a way to salvage the situation." The light of wisdom flickered through the eyes of Jensen's master, Bai Yan. He had many more ideas than Charlie.
"What other ideas do you have?" Charlie immediately looked at Bai Yan.
"Let's talk to the hall elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and send some people into the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall under the pretext of pursuing an enemy. We have to take back that item," said Bai Yan.
Charlie's eyes lit up. "Alright, I'll use the communication stone to contact the Heaven's Spirit Hall right now."
Charlie and Bai Yan immediately used a special tool of the divine hall to contact the hall elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. They told the hall elders what they had prepared long ago. After a series of friendly negotiations, they finally received permission to enter the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall.
At the same time, in the territory of the distant Heaven's Spirit Hall, three Hall Elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall were gathered in the center of the enormous Divine Hall.
"The Serpent God Hall has sent experts to the territory of our Heaven's Spirit Hall to hunt down an enemy. That's strange. Why do I feel like this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface?" said one of the three hall elders.
"I also feel that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. His Highness Poseidon is definitely hiding something from us. Otherwise, such a trivial matter would not require their respected elders to personally come out. They could have just sent the rest of the powerhouses to hunt him down."
"Hmm? Now that you've mentioned it, I also feel like this matter is a little strange. Their enemy has entered the territory of our Heaven's Spirit Hall, so the Poseidon hall is completely capable of dispatching the experts of their tribes to hunt them down. Why must they send people from their Divine Hall over?" The three Divine Hall elders began to speculate. They all sensed that something was wrong.
Right at this moment, a blurry figure appeared out of thin air on the empty throne above the hall. With the appearance of this figure, the entire hall was enveloped in a layer of terrifying pressure.
The three hall elders were surprised. They immediately became respectful. They stood up at the same time and bowed to the blurry figure. They said in unison, "Greetings, hall master."
"I can sense a sliver of the presence of the Abyssal Crystal. Go investigate immediately," said the hall master. The hall master of the Heaven's Spirit Hall said. Although his voice was calm, it was filled with an irresistible might.
"What? The Abyssal Crystal?" The three Hall Elders became stunned. Disbelief filled their faces.
The hall master of the Heaven's Spirit Hall had already disappeared. He did not say anything else, as if he had only appeared to give this order.
The three Hall Elders looked at each other. Only after a while did one of them finally say, "It's said that the Abyssal Crystal comes from the depths of the Sea of Despair. The coldness there is something that even emperors find difficult to endure. I never thought that there would be emperors who would risk their lives to obtain the Abyssal Crystal."
"The Abyssal Crystal is a special crystal. No one knows how it was formed. It has the ability to gather the essence of water elements. It's a legendary treasure in our sea realm, but no one has ever possessed it before. Legend has it that in ancient times, the great Poseidon went to the depths of the Sea of Despair to obtain a large piece of Abyssal Crystal to create the Divine Hall of Despair. However, Poseidon passed away due to the end of his lifespan, so he moved the Divine Hall of Despair to wander freely through the boundless divine realm. No one has ever been able to find its exact location. "
"There's a special connection between the Abyssal Crystals. It's said that as long as you find a piece of Abyssal Crystal and refine it using a special secret technique, you can find the exact location of the Divine Hall of Despair in the boundless divine realm."
"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's carry out the hall master's orders."
Suddenly, the expression of one of the Hall Elders changed. He said, "It just so happens that the matter of the Serpent God Hall hunting down a few of their enemies is rather strange. Do you think it has something to do with the Abyssal Crystal?"
"Could it be that the enemies the Serpent God Hall is hunting down are the people with the Abyssal Crystal?" The three Hall Elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall guessed. Very soon, they connected the news of the Abyssal Crystal to Jianchen and the others who were being hunted down.
"I think that's probably the case. Let's go arrange it quickly. Regardless of whether the Abyssal Crystal is with the people being hunted down by the Serpent God Hall, we need to investigate as soon as possible. If it really is as we guessed, we have to obtain the Abyssal Crystal before the Serpent God Hall does."
Within the territory of the Poseidon Hall, a blue-robed, mature woman who seemed to be in her twenties sat in the air of a secret room. She seemed extremely ordinary, but she was extremely beautiful. She was like a goddess that had descended from the heavens.
"Hall master, Qing Yixuan has arrived!" At this moment, an old voice rang out from outside the hall.
"Let her in." The woman sitting cross-legged in the air opened her mouth and spoke in a lively voice.
The door to the secret room slowly opened. Qing Yixuan, dressed in white, walked in. Her beautiful face was slightly pale, with a tinge of black. She had not fully recovered from the injuries she had received in the battle for the Octoterra Map Fragment a few days ago. Even the poison in her body had not been completely purged.
Qing Yixuan bowed politely to the woman before her and said, "Qing Yixuan greets the hall master."
"Qing Yixuan, go heal in the Pool of Samsara. Once you've recovered, immediately go to the Heaven's Spirit Hall with Lei Batian and the others," said the hall master of the Poseidon Hall.
A sliver of excitement immediately appeared on Qing Yixuan's face when she heard that she could heal in the Pool of Samsara. With the assistance of the Pool of Samsara, she would only need two days to recover from her injuries. Even the poison that had tormented her for so long could be purged.
Qing Yixuan suppressed her excitement and asked curiously, "May I ask why the hall master wants me to go to the Heaven's Spirit Hall?"
"Once you've recovered, you can learn the details of the mission from Lei Batian. You can leave," said the hall master of the Poseidon gently. His voice was emotionless.
"Yes, Qing Yixuan will take her leave now!" Qing Yixuan bowed politely before leaving.
…
Although Jianchen, Nubis, and Xie Wang had shaken off the pursuit of the two Holy Emperor of the Serpent God Hall, they did not dare to relax at all. They continued to fly towards the depths of the Heaven's Spirit Hall without slowing down at all, constantly changing their route along the way.
Jianchen was carried on Nubis's back right now. He was very injured, so he was using the advantage of the Chaotic Body to heal as quickly as he could.
After four hours of continuous travel, a medium-sized city finally appeared on the horizon in front of them.
"There's a city up ahead. There are many people in the city, so it'll be very good at hiding our tracks. Let's stop there for a while first and continue once you've recovered. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome if someone catches up to us again in your current state," suggested Nubis.
"We'll be too obvious of a target if we flee like this. We can hide in the city first. The experts of the Serpent God Hall are restricted by the territory, so they won't dare to set foot here," agreed Xie Wang.
Jianchen thought about it. He knew that his current state was indeed unsuitable for traveling. Since they were safe now, the matter at hand was to heal as soon as possible. He needed to maintain his peak condition at all times to deal with any sudden situations.
"Alright, let's enter the city first," said Jianchen.
Afterward, the three of them directly flew into the city and landed in an extremely well-hidden place. They found a rather remote inn to stay in for the time being.
Just as Jianchen's group settled down in the city, the two elders of the Serpent God Hall received a message from a hall elder at the border between the Serpent God Hall and the Heaven's Spirit Hall. They immediately rejoiced and no longer had any concerns. They directly crossed the border and entered the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall, continuing their search for Jianchen.
"There's still a faint smell of blood in the air. This must be their path of escape. Follow me." One of the elders of the Serpent God Hall who was pursuing Jianchen smelled the smell of blood in the air. He immediately pursued Jianchen's group as quickly as possible, and the path they took was exactly the same as the one Jianchen's group had taken.
After traveling over ten thousand kilometers, the two elders stopped again. The old man with an especially sharp sense of smell sniffed the air again and said, "The smell of blood is getting thicker and thicker. They just passed by here recently. We'll catch up to them very soon. Let's go." With that, the two of them continued onwards. They were getting closer and closer to the small city Jianchen's group resided in.
At this moment, a few tremendous presences appeared in the distance. A few figures quickly flew over from afar, and their target was actually the two elders of the Serpent God Hall.
The two elders of the Serpent God Hall ignored him and continued to chase after the smell of blood in the air. They only treated him as a passerby.
"Warriors, please wait," a voice suddenly called out. Suddenly, a loud shout came from the opposite side. The voice was like thunder, exploding the sky and spreading over dozens of kilometers.
The two elders of the Serpent God Hall came to a halt instinctively. They hovered in the air as they stared at the rapidly approaching figures. They were emotionless.
Very soon, the people stopped twenty meters away from the two elders. There were a total of four of them. They were an old man and three middle-aged men. The old man had already reached the level of Holy Emperor, but he was only at the First Heavenly Layer of Holy Emperor. The other three middle-aged men were all Saint Rulers.
The old man clasped his hands at the two elders and asked, "May I ask if you are elders of the Serpent God Hall?"
"Correct, we are elders of the Serpent God Hall. Why have you stopped us?" One of the elders asked in doubt.
