After putting away the Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit, Xiao Chen took away the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape's Beast Core. Then, he collected all the valuable parts of the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape.
"It's time to leave."
Although Xiao Chen had spent some time and encountered some mishaps, he had successfully completed the mission.
Now, there were only two missions left. One was to eliminate the Demonic Cloud Mountain Eighteen Great Bandits, and the other was to enter the underground world to help the Dragon's Gate snatch back its lost resource points.
Of the two missions, there was no need to think too much. It would be better to complete the first one first.
The underground world was also known as the Abyssal Underworld. The four dynasties and eight great empires all interacted with it.
The waters were very deep. Holy Venerates were nothing in there. Sometimes, startling battles would erupt. Even Divine Vein powerhouses would appear.
However, since the mission given by the sect was a Rank 1 mission, it should not exceed the limits of a Holy Venerate.
There were still some guarantees. If it exceeded that, it would definitely be a peerless Rank 1 mission.
However, the underground world mission was specially marked as a peak Rank 1 mission. It was extremely dangerous and recommended three people to complete it.
One hour after Xiao Chen left, two old men suddenly appeared where he was.
The two old men's cultivations were extremely horrifying. Although they were not Sovereign Personages yet, they were still very strong.
Although they were not Sovereign Personages, their auras already reached the limits of late-stage Holy Venerate. Their gazes were sharp, and their Dragon Might was strong.
Whoosh! "
The two old men arrived beside Qin Aotian. When they took a look, they were stupefied.
Qin Aotian's handsome face now looked like shit. If not for the two old men following Qin Aotian for a long time, they would not have recognized him.
"Who did this?! This is too ruthless!"
"Stop talking. Quickly reassemble Young Master's bones. Otherwise, if he sees his current state, he will probably feel like dying."
"However … however, this difficulty is simply too high. Even if we reassemble it, it will be difficult for it to return to its original state. I … I really don't know where to start. "
The two old men sighed. However, after checking, they found that although Qin Aotian was severely injured, they were not fatal.
Qin Aotian could recover quickly with some good Medicinal Pills.
Of the inherited Dao Tools on him, only the Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit was missing. He still had all five rings.
However, the missing Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit was the most valuable of all the inherited Dao Tools.
"What should I do? How am I going to explain this to the young master? That Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit has been passed down in the Qin Family for several generations. Now that it's gone, we're in big trouble. "
"It's fine. Eldest Young Master has always been impartial. This time, it was Young Master who insisted on not letting us go in. I believe that Eldest Young Master will not blame us."
"I hope so."
Xiao Chen didn't know about this, but even if he knew, he wouldn't regret what he had done.
The Eighteen Bandits of the Demon Cloud Mountain.
The Demonic Cloud Mountain was not a mountain, but it was indeed a mountain. This sounded contradictory, but it was true.
The Demonic Cloud Mountain was a legacy dao artifact. Moreover, it was a rather impressive legacy dao artifact.
As long as Xiao Chen had sufficient resources, he would be able to refine it into a Soul Tool in the future.
There were many capable people among the Eighteen Great Bandits. Some were good at formations, some were good at alchemy, some were good at divination, and some were good at smithing. There were experts in every field.
Because of this, they were able to divine good or bad fortune and turn misfortune into fortune every time.
The Eighteen Great Bandits could divine whether a Sovereign Personage expert would come to kill them. If there was, they would immediately flee.
The Demonic Cloud Mountain entered the Starry Heavens, hidden in the boundless universe. It was boundlessly vast, making it impossible to find.
The Dragon's Gate had been keeping an eye on this group of Great Bandits for many years. However, it could not do anything to them.
If the Dragon's Gate sent a strong person, the Demonic Cloud Mountain Great Bandits would flee in advance.
If the Dragon's Gate sent a weak person, the Demonic Cloud Mountain Great Bandits would end up being killed.
If the Dragon's Gate sent a Divine Vein expert to prevent the Demonic Cloud Mountain Great Bandits from making a divination, it would be overkill. Divine Vein powerhouses disdained making a move on these Holy Venerates. This gave the Dragon's Gate's upper echelon a headache.
The mission to eliminate the Demonic Cloud Mountain Great Bandits had been pending for many years, but it had never been completed.
The reward was very high, a total of thirteen thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills, nearly equal to a core disciple's annual stipend.
Xiao Chen used the Dragon's Gate's strong intelligence network throughout the empire to find out news of the Demonic Cloud Mountain Great Bandits. Then, he quickly rushed over.
Divine Dragon Empire, Smoky Cloud County:
There was a very conspicuous mountain peak hidden in the Smoky Cloud Mountain Range, the largest mountain range in the Smoky Cloud County.
However, this Smoky Cloud Mountain Range spanned from north to south. It was simply too vast. No one would notice the strangeness of a mountain peak.
The mountain peak towered into the clouds. However, the clouds around it were pitch-black and surging with Demonic Qi.
This mountain peak, which was not much different from an ordinary mountain peak, was the infamous Demonic Cloud Mountain.
A white-clad youth sat on a mountain summit in the distance. He had a treasured saber at his waist, and he had a delicate face. Clouds and mist surrounded him, giving him the air of someone from ancient times.
When the clouds and mist on the peak of the mountain dispersed, he noticed to his surprise that the white clothed young man was sitting on a blood red bird.
This large scarlet bird had a sharp gaze, its eyes glowing with a golden light. Its scarlet feathers were bright and glistening. Its body stood tall, and the golden line in its tail feathers looked exceptionally eye-catching.
Naturally, the white-clad bladesman was Xiao Chen. That large scarlet bird was the awakened Demon Blood Vulture.
The Demon Blood Vulture consumed the Scarlet Blood Beast Pill and turned into a scarlet cocoon for several months.
This breakthrough was indeed extraordinary. Not only did the Demon Blood Vulture advance to Holy Venerate, but its mutated bloodline also improved. The Demon Blood Vulture's Demonic Might became even stronger. It awakened some of the incomplete memories hidden in its bloodline and grasped many new skills.
Its strength was no longer the same as before. Three to five regular Holy Venerates would not be sufficient before it.
"Demonic Cloud Mountain!"
A brilliant light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as he looked at the distant mountain peak.
The Dragon's Gate's information on the Demonic Cloud Mountain had always been rather accurate. However, knowing was one thing. Whether they could destroy it or not was another matter.
If Xiao Chen were a Sovereign Personage now, then the Demonic Cloud Mountain before Xiao Chen would definitely vanish in advance, not letting Xiao Chen discover it.
There were divination experts among the Eighteen Great Bandits. They could divine some crucial clues in advance, allowing them to roam freely for so many years.
This showed that the divination experts were rather skilled.
"Master, when are we going to kill our way over? I'm dying of thirst."
The Demon Blood Vulture's voice rang out in Xiao Chen's mind, sounding impatient.
There's no rush. Let me prepare for a while.
Xiao Chen stabbed his saber into the ground and took out the God Shadow Bow. Then, he slowly stroked it. This Soul Tool was undoubtedly his greatest reliance.
Honestly speaking, it would be difficult for Xiao Chen to deal with these eighteen infamous Great Bandits with his own strength.
If he was not careful, he might end up dying.
If Xiao Chen focused on fleeing, he would not be afraid of the Eighteen Great Bandits catching up. However, the mission required him to kill these Eighteen Great Bandits.
Inside the Demonic Cloud Mountain:
This was a mysterious black space. That pitch-black space was empty; nothing could be seen. It seemed infinitely large and infinitely small at the same time, mysterious and unfathomable.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a clump of light appeared in the pitch-black space. Boundless stars appeared in the ceiling, looking boundless and vast.
"Ninth Brother, are you done divining yet? Are there really no Sovereign Personages targeting us this time?"
A vague voice came from that clump of light in the pitch-black space.
"I have divined three times. There is indeed no one. However, it is too hard to divine who is coming. However, I am certain that it is not a Sovereign Personage. "
Another clump of light appeared in the mysterious space, replying to the person who spoke earlier.
"Hehe! It's good that there are no Sovereign Personages. Without a Sovereign Personage around, our Demonic Cloud Mountain is sufficient to sweep through the place. No matter how many Holy Venerates come, it will be useless. Hahaha! "
"I hope that it is a heaven-class core disciple of one of the outer palaces who comes. Just thinking about it makes me drool. The heaven-class core disciples of the various outer palaces are all very fat."
"Heaven-class core disciples probably have life-saving means. They are not that easy to kill. This old man hopes that there will be more Holy Venerates. That way, they will think that they can break through the Demonic Cloud Mountain with numbers. Hehe! "
"First Brother, what should we target this time?"
"The Smoke Cloud County's Mo Clan is an average-sized clan. I just received news that their clan's Sovereign Personage has passed away. The Sovereign Personage of their clan already passed away. There is no need to fear them.
"I can't wait any longer. The last time we made a move was one year ago, right? That was really satisfying!"
"Eighth Brother, you bastard. You want to destroy a clan every time, not even letting off the children. Hahaha! However, don't fight with me this time. Leave the matter of destroying the clan to me! "
"Hahaha! No problem! As long as we, the Demonic Cloud Eighteen Great Bandits, work together, we will be able to sweep through the place. There is nothing we cannot do! "
In the pitch-black space, more and more lights appeared, and the sounds of discussion became more and more heated.
Just at this moment, Lord Jiu's eyebrows twitched slightly. His heart skipped a beat for some reason. For those who practiced divination, the appearance of this inexplicable sign was an extremely terrifying matter.
Lord Jiu's expression changed drastically as he frantically divined. The clump of light that represented Lord Jiu became incredibly resplendent, blazing, and dazzling.
"Lord Jiu, what's wrong?!"
"What's going on?!"
Such a strange change made the other Great Bandits feel that something was wrong.
"Big Brother, quickly leave. Quickly activate the Demonic Cloud Mountain to leave. The person who comes has a Soul Tool. If we do not leave now, it will be too late! "
The light shattered, and Lord Jiu vomited a mouthful of blood. After he spoke of the results of his divination, he fainted.
"Ah!"
The others went into a huge commotion, feeling shocked.
Far away, a brilliant light flickered in Xiao Chen's eyes as he drew his bow. Xiao Chen had already infused all his Soul Energy into the bow. However, this was still not enough. He continued to pour in his Veritable Essence Energy.
A clump of Heart Flame appeared on Xiao Chen's fingertip and spread into the arrow, merging with it.
Xiao Chen's body wobbled slightly, on the verge of fainting at any moment. However, he still did his best to persevere. He maintained his strong willpower and continued to infuse his Veritable Essence Energy into the God Shadow Bow, continuously challenging his limits.
"Whoosh!"
When Xiao Chen felt that he had reached his limits, he let go, and the arrow shot out.
The arrow was so fast that Xiao Chen could not catch it. The Demonic Cloud Mountain, which had just soared into the air, exploded the instant Xiao Chen let go.
Miserable shrieks rang out as eighteen figures were blasted into the air.
The God Shadow Bow's arrow blasted the entire Demonic Cloud Mountain into countless shards that surged out and formed tens of thousands of storms.
When the storm spread out, it shattered the surrounding peaks.
Xiao Chen jumped off the Demon Blood Vulture's back somewhat weakly. However, a cold and emotionless murderous intent appeared on his pale face. He said coldly, "None of you are allowed to escape. Leave no one alive. If anyone escapes, I will hold you responsible."
"Yes, Master!"
The impatient Demon Blood Vulture screeched and turned into a scarlet arrow as it shot out.
