The Shadow Guard's movement was very efficient, but it was a bit more troublesome to control it. Chu Yunsheng needed to plan its route in advance, then inform Lu Fen to gather more soul creatures and pretend to attack along the route. Then through Shang, he would ask the Shadow Guard to go over and help them.
Direct orders would not work, and it would be in a dilemma. When the little insect asked Dao Fen to go down, it was in a dilemma because of Chu Yunsheng's order.
But it didn't need to be responsible for hiding the entire line of fire insects.
There were too many fire insects in the outermost layer, and Chu Yunsheng alone was too inefficient.
Even so, when it and Chu Yunsheng acted separately, the fire insects under the three forbidden zones did not have much resistance. Facing a large number of fire insects, it would take a long time.
Chu Yunsheng was extremely busy, so the other spirits were idle. Except for helping Chu Yunsheng force the Shadow Guards to rescue the places that needed to be hidden, there was basically nothing else to do.
The news brought back by Si Fen, Ji Yi, and the fifth fleet from below made the battle in the sky basically stop. But not every spirit believed that the news they brought back was absolutely true.
There were three reasons. First, according to the news brought back by the only spirit that did not go down to the loudspeaker space, Chu Yunsheng and Si Fen were in the same group. Second, the relationship between Chu Yunsheng and the fire insects was unclear. Third, the strongest spirit did not come up after going down. Therefore, there was reason to suspect that Chu Yunsheng and Si Fen had suspicious intentions.
Fortunately, there was a spirit from the fifth fleet as a witness, so not all spirits believed Si Fen. But according to the latest situation that Si Fen gave Chu Yunsheng, only a small number of spirits wanted to go down to see.
This was too different from what they expected. There were too few spirits, and it was not enough to go down.
Looking at the spirits that gathered in the sky, there were only a dozen of them, and three of them were from the fifth fleet, Si Fen couldn't help but sigh, "Too few, far from enough."
Among the dozen or so spirits, there was a gray spirit that said sadly, "even if all of them are willing to go down, so what? There are only twenty of them. Thinking back to the time when Xing Jian led all the spirits to attack the forbidden area, how powerful was that!? How glorious was that!? Our spirits are boundless, as vast as the starry sky! The three thousand tunnels are full of spirits! Now, less than thirty have returned, and a third of them are new spirits. "
Hearing this, Yu Fen was also sad: "In the past, Xing Jian led a group of spirits to cross the boundless void and ambush the forbidden area. Just on the way there, it was said that half of them died. However, it was because these spirits successfully crossed the boundless void that we were able to break through the defensive line of the fire worms. However, instead of saying that we were strong at that time, it was better to say that the fire worms were even more terrifying! Look at the current Fire Worm, it can even break through our defenses. "
The Gray Spirit was silent for a moment, then it sighed, "The battle was too tragic. If it wasn't for the fact that it fought to the death, if it wasn't for the fact that it fought all the way to the depths of the forbidden land alone, forcing the fire beetle to fight back to defend, there would have been more dead spirits."
At this time, another mist-like spirit interrupted, "At that time, I was also there. This time, I came to see if Xing Jian had returned. Now, apart from those at the top, I heard that a large portion of the spirits that survived in our era have joined the two great God Nations. I originally had the same intention, but I was still a bit unwilling."
Yu Fen sighed in agreement, "Us old spirits are too far behind the two great God Nations. Whether it is our understanding of spirits or our use of spirits, we are far inferior to them."
The Gray Spirit said, "Not only now, even at that time, I felt that we were inferior to them. At that time, we were competing in all sorts of forbidden techniques. They looked powerful, but in reality, they were not as accurate as their current spells."
Yu Fen looked at the desolate number of people in the sky and felt deeply unwilling, "Now is not our era. It is a pity that when Xing Jian tried to rebuild the Heaven Domain, he didn't succeed. Otherwise, it wouldn't have withered like this. At that time, the powerful spirits that followed him across the boundless void were all extremely terrifying."
The Gray Spirit seemed to be reminiscing, "Speaking of rebuilding the Heaven Domain, I was placed in the 16th domain, what about you guys?"
The mist-like spirit said, "I was the 19th domain, we were a bit closer."
Yu Fen said, "I was further away, 31st domain."
Their topic seemed to have ignited the interest of all the old spirits. Even if they didn't come close, they all reported the "domain" that they were sent to.
"I was from the 11th domain."
"I was from the 23rd domain."
"I was from the 36th domain."
…
At the end, the last spirit seemed to be enraged, "I was tricked by Xing Jian into going to the 170th domain! I've been guarding the place for countless years, and I've never failed to keep my promise. It said that it would come back, but I almost died there, and I didn't even see a trace of that liar. If I hadn't been lucky enough to escape, I'd probably still be guarding that place in despair. It's funny that I don't even know what I'm guarding!
When I broke free, I was the only one who survived out of all the spirits in the 170th domain. This time, the first reason I came here is to find Xing Jian and ask why!? "
This spirit's rage instantly ignited the anger of all the other spirits — —
"Me too! Xing Jian said he would return and told me to guard it with my life. I only trusted him, but in the end … "
"I've never trusted anyone except him, but in the end, I guarded it for an entire era …"
"Didn't I do the same? I waited and waited, waited and waited, waited for countless years, waited for disappointment, waited for despair …"
"That liar, he tricked me for an entire era!"
"Liar!"
"Liar!"
…
After the rage subsided, they gradually calmed down as if they were thinking about their own thoughts. After a long time, a sorrowful voice slowly said, "Sometimes, I really hope that he really tricked me, and not …"
Another spirit immediately said, "No, he is so powerful, impossible, absolutely impossible."
The sorrowful spirit sighed, "I also hope that he is still alive. As long as he is still alive, so what if he tricked me for another era?"
At this time, Si Fen also sighed and said, "I have tried to find it, but there is no sign of it. I suspect that it went to a few of the most terrifying places and never came back. One of them may be a deeper place in the forbidden area."
…
Another period of silence.
At this time, Ji Yi, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, "Strange, did you all notice? According to your descriptions, just like me, most of you only managed to escape from the 'guarding point' recently. No matter what kind of coincidence it is, why did you only manage to escape after an entire era? Then, is it really 'luck'? "
As soon as its words fell, all the spirits were shocked!
