Seven days later, in a dense forest.
Many houses were hidden under the cover of the ancient trees.
There were surveillance cameras everywhere, and the ground was engraved with Star Arrays.
Starlight flowed, and the Star Arrays operated slowly.
Deep in the forest, a green barrier shone, protecting the houses.
Jiang Changkong and the other two stood in the sky and looked down at the houses below. "This is the Celestial Palace's base?"
"Yes, all the information you want is inside," Liangqiu Xuanyi said calmly. "But the defense here is extremely strong. Even the Star Path Sect might not be able to escape unscathed."
"Miss Xuanyi, you should have prepared for this, right?" Jiang Changkong said indifferently.
Liangqiu Xuanyi took out a green token. "This is the token of this base. Once it's activated, the methods here will be useless against you."
"This base? Are there many Celestial Palace's bases here? "Jiang Changkong asked.
Feng Qixing said, "They're everywhere. You might not be able to kill them all."
Liangqiu Xuanyi nodded. "I only have the token of this base. I don't have anything else."
"Then I'll go in. You guys wait outside." Jiang Changkong took the token and prepared to go down.
"Okay, we'll wait for you here." Liangqiu Xuanyi nodded.
Jiang Changkong wasn't in a hurry to leave. He looked at Feng Qixing and asked, "Are you going to contact the Wind Vein?"
Feng Qixing's face twitched. "Changkong, you must be joking. Why would I do that?"
"I'll keep an eye on him," Liangqiu Xuanyi said.
Jiang Changkong didn't say anything else. He took the token and flew down.
Inside the barrier, many figures were busy working.
In front of each wooden house, there were martial artists guarding. Their strength was not low, and they were basically all high-level martial artists.
Jiang Changkong didn't hide when he arrived, so he quickly attracted their attention.
The green barrier trembled. The surrounding trees glowed green and huge branches whipped at him.
He infused astral power into the token in his hand and it glowed green. The branches that were whipping at him stopped abruptly and quickly retracted.
The barrier below opened automatically, revealing a passage that was as wide as a person's width.
Seeing this, he confirmed that the token was really useful.
After the martial artists inside saw the token, they returned to their original positions and continued to stand guard.
A white-haired old man looked up at him, his face brimming with a smile, "Welcome, my lord."
"Yes."
Jiang Changkong's feet stepped on the ground and he responded with an indifferent tone.
"Sir, may I know which Palace of Immortal Palaces you are from? Which Lord are you? Why do you sound so unfamiliar?" The elder asked carefully.
"It's the Research Palace..."
Jiang Changkong's eyes flashed, and he pressed his palm on the old man's head. Soul Searching Secret Art!
As for the Immortal Palace, he only knew a few palaces. As for the specific identity, he was too lazy to make it up. He might as well take action directly.
"Enemy!"
With a shout, the martial artists guarding the area all pounced on Jiang Changkong with dazzling star power.
Rumble!
The earth trembled as the Star Array was activated. Dense Daoist Rhymes rose.
The token in Jiang Changkong's hand gave off a green light and also contained a trace of Dao Runes.
The formation's starlight automatically avoided Jiang Changkong, and it was of no use.
As the martial artists in the surroundings pounced on him, Jiang Changkong flicked his finger, and his soul power swept out.
The martial artists that were rushing over all froze, and their gazes turned dull.
Streams of soul power flew out from the bodies of these martial artists. Countless roots extended from the Soul Stabilizing Tree and devoured their souls.
Letting go of the elder, Jiang Changkong's gaze turned cold.
Just like the Star Demon in his territory, these people were all researching celestial bodies.
However, these people's research was more profound than the Star Demon's, and the scope of their research was wider.
They would also study some cosmic species and the remains of some experts.
These people had done many things like digging graves.
With a point of his finger, the old man's body exploded into a blood mist, and his soul was absorbed by the Soul Stabilizing Tree.
"Which evil creature dares to court death?!"
An angry roar rang out, and a group of people rushed out of the house. The few people in the lead were peak Star Realm cultivators who had comprehended a trace of the Great Dao.
Screech!
A Golden Crow let out a long cry. A Golden Crow burned with raging flames, burning the sky and boiling the sea.
Tenth-grade treasure!
Jiang Changkong's expression was calm. The few peak Star Realm cultivators here were all sun star power cultivators.
The three great celestial bodies were activated, and killing formations crisscrossed. Thousands of flowers bloomed.
The expressions of the few martial artists changed, and they fell into an illusion. The tenth-grade Golden Crow spewed sun fire, burning their martial artists.
Jiang Changkong's soul power swept out, enveloping these houses.
Some of the people who were still researching in the houses walked out one by one.
The Golden Crow's fire turned the martial artists into ashes.
The Soul Stabilizing Tree's roots spread out, frenziedly devouring souls.
15 minutes later, other than Jiang Changkong, there were no other living beings in the Ethereal Immortal Palace's stronghold.
The Soul Stabilizing Tree also grew a little taller.
"The two of you, come down."
Jiang Changkong looked at the sky, and his token flickered with light. The formation automatically stopped, and the barrier dissipated.
After searching the soul, he had already grasped the method to control this place.
The two of them flew down, and Liangqiu Xuanyi said calmly, "He didn't send out any news."
Feng Qixing was helpless. Liangqiu Xuanyi kept a close eye on him, and he didn't dare to use any methods.
Once he used any methods, unless he killed Liangqiu Xuanyi, Jiang Changkong would also search his soul if he didn't send out any news.
He didn't want his soul to be searched. The Wind Bloodline had some secrets that he didn't want others to know.
"There are the things I want here, and there are also instruments. Let's deal with the star crystals."
Jiang Changkong said indifferently. There were instruments to deal with star crystals here.
There were many resources in this Ethereal Immortal Palace's stronghold. Even if he didn't use them, he could bring them back.
"Your Soul Searching Art is really useful," Feng Qixing said enviously.
With this Soul Searching Art, what secrets were there that he couldn't know?
Jiang Changkong brought them into a house, and there were all sorts of instruments and corpses of all kinds of living beings.
"Damn it." Feng Qixing's expression changed drastically when he saw a corpse, and he rushed over.
"This is someone from your Wind Bloodline?" Jiang Changkong looked at the corpse. It was a youth.
"He is my little brother."
Feng Qixing carefully picked up the corpse with a sorrowful expression. "This damned Ethereal Immortal Palace should have been destroyed long ago."
"I haven't seen you move for so many years," Liangqiu Xuanyi said calmly.
"In the past, there was no enmity between us, so you could sit back and do nothing. Now, you only have regret."
"Alright, let's bury these corpses," Jiang Changkong said with a sigh.
"Burn them. Scatter the ashes."
Liangqiu Xuanyi was silent for a moment, and then said, "They are all cultivators. Don't let them be dug out for star crystals in the future."
"…" Jiang Changkong.
I'm very embarrassed by what you said.
Feng Qixing nodded, and brought the corpses out to burn them.
However, he didn't burn his little brother's corpse. Instead, he kept it. He wanted to bring it back to the Wind Bloodline.
Jiang Changkong dealt with the corpses, and he tapped on the instruments to find the information he needed.
Sun Astral Array, White Cloud Astral Array!
There was also their research on the Three Elemental Constitutions and the Ultimate Combat Body.
Liangqiu Xuanyi was dealing with the star crystals. Jiang Changkong had given him quite a lot.
"Help me deal with them too. I'm going into closed-door cultivation," Jiang Changkong said.
Liangqiu Xuanyi nodded. "Don't go into closed-door cultivation here. The Ethereal Immortal Palace's people might come at any time."
"I understand. Deal with the star crystals, take these instruments away, and find a place with no one around to enter closed-door cultivation."
If the Ethereal Immortal Palace discovered that he had come and destroyed this place, it was very likely that they would send a Star Path cultivator over.
Jiang Changkong wasn't ready to become enemies with a Star Path cultivator yet.
