(There was an accident, so the update was late. Please forgive me! Worship, no updates today.)
After struggling for a few days, Huang Qingtian and Wu Duo did not have any results. They could not find a way to subdue the praying mantises.
It possessed a destructive power that could go toe-to-toe with a Purple Lotus cultivator, and a tough carapace that even a Purple Lotus cultivator would find hard to break through. It would be a pity if he couldn't use such a good thing for himself. Qiu Li put in a lot of effort and carefully studied the mantis.
On this day, one of his subordinates requested an audience with him. Qiu Li emerged from the underground and presented his subordinate with a report on the recent situation in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea.
The situation in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea was the same as always. The only strange thing was that the Tempest Tavern had become more and more lively as of late, with more and more customers coming in.
"Send someone to monitor the situation at Tempest Tavern," Qiu Li instructed as he looked at the jade disk in his hand.
"Yes!" The subordinate answered and left.
After reading the contents of the jade disk, Qiu Li was just about to put it away when he suddenly froze. He slowly lowered his head to look at the jade disk in his hand, and his eyes gradually bloomed with hope.
She seemed to have thought of something as she quickly returned to the basement and began to carefully tidy up the things she had obtained from Miao Yi.
After obtaining Miao Yi's item, he had focused all his attention on the mantis, but he had forgotten one thing. Why didn't he check Miao Yi's item first? Perhaps there was a way to tame this strange mantis in there. He only remembered it when he saw the jade disk his subordinate presented to him.
Close to a million low-grade Orbs of Will, a pile of Five Level Crystals, a huge pile of crystal coins, and the Nine-Eared Demon Subduing Pestle also landed in Qiu Li's hands. After inspecting it, he couldn't help but click his tongue and shake his head, "This third grade transcendent artifact is pretty good. I didn't expect this Miao thief to have such a rich background."
However, this was not what he was concerned about at the moment. What he wanted to find was a way to control the strange praying mantises. Things like jade disks with written records were his priority. As he rummaged through these things, he found four white bone tokens. At first, he didn't think much of them, but when he used his magic power to sweep through these four white bone tokens, an ancient aura seeped out from them, causing his mind to unintentionally tremble slightly.
What is this? Puzzled, Qiu Li took out the four tokens and examined them. He immediately discovered that this White Bone Command Medallion was not ordinary. He did not know what kind of bone it was made of, but it was very hard and had a luster like jade. When it was struck, it actually produced the sound of golden jade.
In particular, the aura emanating from the bone badge gave Qiu Li an indistinct sense of pressure even though he was a demonic cultivator. Qiu Li was shocked. What kind of bone was this? It was definitely not from a human's body. It was impossible to find such a large piece of bone carved into this kind of token from a human body. It was obviously the bone of a beast. He could confirm that the owner of this white bone must have been an extremely powerful existence when he was alive. Otherwise, even the remains would not be able to make his heart palpitate.
Looking at the images on the four tokens, he saw that they were all engraved with different mountain and sea patterns. On the other side of each token, there were four characters, 'Eagle', 'Fu', 'Xiong', and 'Hong'.
Qiu Li's mouth twitched when he looked at these four sets of words separately, but when he looked at them together, he subconsciously thought of a certain four old monsters. He couldn't help but connect the dots. It was impossible for these four names to coincidentally be together.
Invoking his arts to examine the tokens, he discovered that there was a small formation set up inside. He activated the 'Eagle' token, and a white silhouette was projected out. A sinister-looking man with a hooked nose sat cross-legged with his eyes closed as he hovered in the air. Although he was quiet, he exuded an intimidating aura.
Qiu Li was no stranger to this person. He stared at the silhouette and slowly muttered to himself, "Invincible Eagle of the Southern Constellations Constellations Palace …"
He quickly activated the other three tokens in his hand. Western Constellations Palace's Fu Qing, Eastern Constellations Palace's Xiong Wei, and Northern Constellations Palace's Hong Tian …
"…" Qiu Li was speechless for a long while. "The Four Constellations Masters of the Sea of Constellations. How did that traitor Miao get the tokens of those four old monsters?"
If it was only one person's token, then it was still possible to obtain it by chance. But the tokens of the four Constellations Masters were all here. It was impossible for all four of them to obtain it by chance, right? Could that traitor Miao be one of the Four Constellations Masters?
He instantly recalled the words Miao Yi had said before he left … 'I will definitely retrieve my storage ring within a month. It's best not to touch the items inside the storage ring. If even a strand of hair is missing, I guarantee that he won't be able to pay for it!'
Qiu Li recalled how those four old monsters had fought against the Six Sages all those years ago, forcing them to join forces against them! Qiu Li felt a chill run down his spine as he sucked in a breath of cold air. Sensing that things might have gotten out of hand, Qiu Li quickly took the four tokens and left.
Deep within the desert, the two Fort Lords were invited out. Since there were no outsiders around, they didn't sit on the two seats at the top. Originally, there were five seats at the top of the high walls, which belonged to the Five Emperors of Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. However, after Devil Sage Yun Aotian killed three of them in a fit of rage, the Five Emperors became the Mighty Duo.
The two Fort Lords were also studying the strange mantis. They looked at each other and realized that they had been invited out again after only a few days. Huang Qingtian furrowed his brows and asked, "Qiu Li, why are you in such a hurry?"
Qiu Li cupped his fists with a bitter expression and said, "Second Master, Fourth Master, there is indeed something. I'm afraid we've gotten ourselves into trouble by touching that traitor Miao."
'And I thought it was something serious!' Huang Qingtian scoffed, "What kind of trouble could there be? Even if Mu Fanjun were to come, she would have to be reasonable. Mu Fanjun wouldn't go so far as to fall out with us over a traitor Miao. "
"If it were the Six Sages, then it would be easier." Qiu Li cupped his fists and presented the four tokens. "Second Master, Fourth Master, these are the things I found from Miao Yi's storage ring. Take a look."
The two of them held the four tokens in their hands and immediately realized that something was amiss, because they had seen this kind of token before. The surnames on the tokens left them speechless. After invoking their arts to activate the projections of the Four Constellations Masters in the token, the two Fort Lords looked at each other in silence.
"These are the tokens of the Four Constellations Masters. Seeing the tokens is equivalent to seeing the Four Constellations Masters in person. They can make all the Demons in the Sea of Constellations bow before them!" Wu Duo took a deep breath, then looked at Qiu Li and asked, "These four tokens were all from that traitor Miao's storage ring?"
"Yes!" Qiu Li nodded helplessly.
"How did that brat get the tokens of those four old monsters?" Huang Qingtian asked in a low voice.
There were some things that the two Fort Lords were well aware of. In this world, there weren't many people that could make them worry. The four Constellations Masters were definitely one of them. They could deal with the Six Sages, but they couldn't play tricks in front of those four old monsters. Even though their cultivation was about the same, cultivation did not represent strength.
Before the rise of the Six Sages, those four were the overlords of the world. They had countless experts under their command, and almost all the top-notch experts in the cultivation world were under their command. In front of these four, all Yao cultivators in the world could only behave themselves. Back then, even Yao Sage Ji Huan could only lower her head in front of them.
Later on, during the struggle for supremacy, the Six Sages joined forces to fight the four old monsters. Even though the experts under the four were almost all killed by the Six Sages, they still had the most Golden Lotus cultivators under them. Just the thirty-six Yao Kings that were still alive were all Golden Lotus cultivators. None of the Six Sages had that many Golden Lotus cultivators under them. From this, it could be seen how powerful the Four Constellations Masters were at their peak.
After the Four Constellations Masters were humiliated and submitted to Yao Sage Ji Huan, they lost the aura of supremacy. From then on, they holed up in a corner of the Sea of Constellations and rarely showed themselves. Even if there was nothing important, they wouldn't easily show themselves. Even if there was nothing important, they were almost forgotten by everyone.
However, the two Fort Lords were clear that a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Not to mention the Four Constellations Masters, any one of the Constellations Masters was still stronger than them. If the Five Emperors were still present, they could try fighting against the current Four Constellations Masters.
After a moment of silence in the underground palace, Wu Duo said, "Second Brother, don't get yourself into trouble. Those four old monsters are not to be trifled with."
"We still don't know what relationship that brat has with those four old monsters. He's a Celestial Nation cultivator after all …" Even though he said this, Huang Qingtian still nodded in the end and said, "Forget it! Qiu Li, don't touch that brat's things anymore. Once they're all packed up, Little Four and I will make a trip to the Sea of Constellations later and ask about the situation. If he really is one of those four old monsters' men, then apologize! Lower your stance a little. Those four old monsters have always kept a low profile. I'm sure they won't be too calculative. "
"Understood!" However, Qiu Li tried asking again, "What about those praying mantises?"
The two Fort Lords exchanged glances, then each took out a storage ring and tossed it to him. Then, they turned around and left silently.
Qiu Li took a look at the items in the storage rings. There were six strange praying mantises in each of the rings. There was no need to say what they meant. Apart from returning them to the other party, what else could they mean? He should forget about keeping the three he had. He'd wasted so many days of effort for nothing …
At this moment, over at the Sea of Constellations, ten figures were hurriedly rushing out of the Sea of Constellations' airspace.
The other eight were the Eastern Constellations Palace's Left and Right Envoys, Golden Light and Silver Light. One was dressed in golden robes, while the other was dressed in silver robes. Both were bald. The Western Constellations Palace's Left and Right Envoys, Li Feng and Qing Feng, were dressed in gray robes and blue robes respectively. The Southern Constellations Palace's Left and Right Envoys, Ling Tian and Po Kong, were dressed in purple robes and blue robes respectively. The Northern Constellations Palace's Left and Right Envoys, Ben Lei and Han Tian, were both barefooted and bare-chested. One had a red ribbon tied around his waist, while the other had a black ribbon tied around his waist.
The Northern Constellations Palace's Left and Right Envoys, Ben Lei and Han Tian Tian were all barefooted today. They were either sullen or sullen. Some of them had a ferocious glint in their eyes, while others had a murderous aura emanating from their bodies. All of them were headed in the same direction — Flowing Clouds Dune Sea!
Flying at high speed, Yan Beihong was barely able to keep up with them. His gaze would occasionally sweep across the eight of them. These eight were all at the Golden Lotus Second Grade, and he had already asked Miao Yi who they were. Miao Yi told him that they were the Left and Right Envoys of the Sea of Constellations' Four Constellations Masters.
Yan Beihong had a whole new level of respect for this Little Brother Miao. He wondered when Miao Yi had managed to form a relationship with the Four Constellations Masters of the Sea of Constellations. He was actually able to move the legendary Left and Right Envoys of the Sea of Constellations to stand up for him.
Little did he know that Miao Yi was worried about the Twin Heroes' Third Grade Golden Lotus strength. Initially, he had wanted to bring out the Four Constellations Masters of the Sea of Constellations, even if it was just one of them. But who knew that none of the four old monsters cared about the Twin Heroes at all, and only sent out their Left and Right Envoys.
The Southern Constellations Master Invincible Eagle only had one thing to say: 'Do you think those two pieces of trash are worthy?!'
When he finally met with the Eastern Constellations Master Xiong Wei, Miao Yi voiced out his concerns: 'Shouldn't one of you four go and hold the fort?!'
