Looking at the vast land formed by the formation above the Riding Wind Heavenly Vessel and the long river that surged into the distance, Feng Yunsheng asked softly via sound transmission, "Since that is so, isn't it already proven that the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation indeed exists in the Royal Reed Sea, just that we do not know who it was that established it?"
Yan Zhaoge answered without batting an eyelid, "It cannot be confirmed yet. This Senior Zheng Ming is currently executing this formation in search of the grand formation that has triggered the flow of the earth veins."
"From what we currently know, none of the powers of the Royal Reed Sea, the Grand Xuan Dynasty included, has a guardian grand formation that can trigger the flow of the earth veins."
Yan Zhaoge raised his head and glanced at the formation above the massive vessel, "Therefore, if there is a large-scale formation that can do this, it would be where the target is. There would be no need to worry about being confused and finding the wrong place."
"However, the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation is not the only grand formation that can trigger the flow of the earth veins. Therefore, we can only confirm it after we have truly found the place."
Feng Yunsheng and Ah Hu both nodded upon hearing his words.
Ah Hu gave a simple and honest laugh, "The Grand Xuan Dynasty won't just sit there and wait for death, right?"
Yan Zhaoge said, "Of course not. Still, it would definitely not be easy to deal with the pressure from the Southeastern Exalt. This way, it would be very hard for them to take care of the situation in the Royal Reed Sea."
"Having lost the suppression of the Grand Xuan Dynasty, it would be even easier for the Radiant Light Sect, the Dim Darkness Sect and the North Sea Sword Pavilion to intensify."
Ah Hu scratched his head, "Young Master, your target is still the Radiant Light Sect at the end of the day."
"This is only natural." Yan Zhaoge's gaze was rather deep and distant, "I have never forgotten that the Extreme Yin Crown is still in their hands."
Hearing his words, Feng Yunsheng said gently, "The Extreme Yin Bout has long since become history. The ownership of the Extreme Yin Crown now depends on a higher level of competition."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "I will have you personally take it back."
Feng Yunsheng exchanged glances with him, smiling, "It is fine."
Ah Hu said, "In terms of enmity, the Grand Xuan Dynasty's hatred towards you is probably not inferior to the Radiant Light Sect's."
Yan Zhaoge looked at the Riding Wind Heavenly Vessel beneath his feet, "Therefore, we naturally have to find something for them to do."
Ah Hu asked, "Young Master, do you think that the Grand Xuan Dynasty will go all the way, just …"
Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng both understood the hidden meaning behind his words. He was worried that those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty would directly come to silence them. In order to prevent news of this from spreading out of the Royal Reed Sea and truly reaching the Southeastern Exalt's ears, he had left Zheng Ming and the others behind as well.
While Zheng Ming's group possessed outstanding strength as well as a powerful weapon like the Riding Wind Heavenly Vessel, the Grand Xuan Dynasty similarly had Immortal Bridge Martial Saints as well as high-grade Sacred Artifacts.
If he cast aside all his worries, he was actually confident that he could succeed.
Yan Zhaoge was not nervous, "That won't be the case. A considerable portion of their attention is currently still tied up by the anti-Xuan forces of the Royal Reed Sea, unable to spare so many experts."
"The Grand Xuan Dynasty is comparatively stronger, possessing the initiative on the battlefield. Still, it is not as though they can come and go as they please. Otherwise, the Radiant Light Sect would already have been destroyed by now."
"If news of this were to leak out, they would have completely offended the Southeastern Exalt."
"Comparatively speaking, it is more likely that they would first dispel the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation, deceiving Zheng Ming, Chen Zhiliang and the others before slowly making their next move."
Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes into slits, "Having used up the Earth Ocean Lung Crystals, I wonder how long their Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation will be able to sustain without such a material? Could they have just stopped it altogether? "
Ah Hu pulled back the corners of his lips, "Young Master, it would have been great if you had kept a few more things back then."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Only the Earth Ocean Lung Crystals are useful to me. The others merely occupy empty space."
He stroked his lower chin, "Now, I really have no intentions of doing so. Hopefully, with only the Earth Ocean Lung Crystals missing, they will still be able to continue maintaining the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation."
"Still, there is not much hope of that. After all, it is not easy to find a substitute for the Earth Ocean Lung Crystals."
Feng Yunsheng asked, "If the Grand Xuan Dynasty has already stopped the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation and we have gained nothing this time, what should we do then?"
Gazing in the direction of the long river of light in the distance, Yan Zhaoge said slowly, "It is still hard to say now. We will have to go there and see how things turn out."
As Yan Zhaoge's group discussed this, Zheng Ming, Chen Zhiliang and Wen Luoxia were actually conversing in private as well.
"Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation … what exactly are King Xuanwen, Daoist Shi and the others trying to do?" Chen Zhiliang's gaze was rather heavy, "Or rather, what is that person trying to do?"
Wen Luoxia asked, "Master, that person … refers to?"
Chen Zhiliang glanced at Zheng Ming. Zheng Ming extended his hand, spreading his fingers and making a 'five' gesture before retracting four fingers, only raising a single index finger.
Wen Luoxia immediately understood as she involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air.
Chen Zhiliang said, "You do not need to know exactly who it is. You just need to know that the situation is far from ordinary. Do not get involved in it."
Wen Luoxia hurriedly said, "Thank you for your teachings, Master and senior apprentice-uncle. This disciple will remember it well."
Chen Zhiliang swivelled his head and asked Zheng Ming, "Does that person want to search for the whereabouts of the Earth Queen's Earthly Deity? While there are no signs that prove that the Earth Queen has perished, there are also no signs that she is still alive in this world … "
Zheng Ming's face was sunken, "The crux is, why does that person want to secretly search for clues? Who is he trying to hide it from?"
Chen Zhiliang's gaze retracted, "Senior apprentice-brother Zheng, why do I feel that we should not get involved in this matter? A great calamity may be brewing here. The more we know, the faster we will die!"
As personal disciples of the Southeastern Exalt, there were rather limited existences that they could fear.
However, it was precisely because they stood at a high vantage point that they were knowledgeable and knew things that ordinary people did not, that they understood even better the dangers that were concealed beneath the surface of some seemingly ordinary things.
The wider one's horizons were, the more one would be able to sense their own insignificance.
The Earth Queen's Earthly Deity was one of the Four Imperials of Daoism, one of the major figures who had stood at the peak of the heavens and the earth in pre-Great Calamity times. She was truly a figure of legend, possessing remarkable abilities and incomparably exalted.
Being related to this person was already no small matter.
Meanwhile, the situation before them was even more strange.
Zheng Ming said softly, "Most of the time, the more you know, the faster you die. But sometimes, if you know too little, you won't even know how you die."
"The southeastern Yang Heaven Territory is under Master's jurisdiction at the end of the day. If something were to happen, Master would not know, and would be very passive."
"Even if we don't interfere, we should at least understand the situation and let Master decide."
Chen Zhiliang nodded in agreement as Zheng Ming continued, "Before departing just now, I already sent someone out of the Royal Reed Sea to report back."
"That's for the best." Chen Zhiliang nodded, then turned to look at Wen Luoxia. "Where is Ye Xin now? Aren't you traveling together? "
Wen Luoxia answered, "After entering the Royal Reed Sea, we separated. This disciple also does not know where senior apprentice-sister Ye is currently."
Chen Zhiliang let out a sigh, another worry weighing on his mind.
Everyone had their own thoughts. The Riding Wind Heavenly Vessel flew on, traversing countless rivers and mountains.
Land gradually appeared in front of him. The illusory river disappeared, but there were still clues to guide him.
Gazing at the mainland, Yan Zhaoge knew that he was about to arrive at his destination. (To be continued.)
