"Oh no, someone's coming." As soon as he got the Silver-Winged Centipede puppet, Lu Xiaotian sensed a few auras approaching from different directions. Although it was inconvenient for him to make a move now, even a Body Integration Realm cultivator would not be able to escape Lu Xiaotian's senses.
The Silver-Winged Centipede puppet turned into a stream of light and was put back into Lu Xiaotian's Sumeru Ring along with the Star Chrysalis Sun Conch.
The auras were getting closer and closer. Lu Xiaotian could not get away now. Fortunately, the Realm-Breaking Insect was small and easy to hide. Lu Xiaotian did not panic. He burrowed into a relatively dense patch of low-grade spirit grass and went underground in the blink of an eye. When the auras were within a certain distance, the Realm-Breaking Insect stopped moving. It lay on the ground like a dead object.
"What's going on?" Hao Zhijie and Hai Qing rushed over. They were both surprised.
"How would I know if you ask me?" Hai Qing shrugged.
There were also two other cultivators in spirit armor who looked confused. Their faces were blurry, and their bodies were surging with sword intent.
"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe the Star Chrysalis Crystal Conch won't appear so soon." Hao Zhijie thought for a while. He did not know much about the Star Chrysalis Crystal Conch. It was not easy to get the order to find this place, but he did not expect to make such a mistake. It was not easy to wander around this place full of restrictions. If it were not for the treasures given by the powerful cultivator, even cultivators like them would not be able to move around. This place was a forbidden area of the Star Palace. It was not an undeserved reputation.
The Realm-Breaking Insect hid in the ground. Its aura was completely restrained. It was like a dead object. It absorbed all of its divine sense into its body and did not leak any of its aura.
In fact, Lu Xiaotian's cautiousness had saved his life once again. Two extremely powerful divine senses scanned the surroundings separately and retreated after finding nothing. After another half a month, the spiritual pools between the mountains had long disappeared, and the ground had changed. The Realm-Breaking Insect, which was like a dead object in the ground, started to move again.
"That's strange. There were signs of the Star Chrysalis Crystal Conch forming there. The two of you missed it. " Dark clouds covered the sky, covering the sky and the earth. Hao Zhijie and Hai Qing could not see the true appearance of the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl. Only nine green and red eyeballs the size of bowls could be seen floating in the air.
"Are you sure that Chihiro Yeh's men didn't get the Celestial Chrysalis Conch?"
"Chihiro Yeh's men were slightly slower than the two of us. They also failed to detect the presence of the Celestial Chrysalis Conch," Hao Zhijie said.
"Yes." The Nine-Eyed Demon Owl glanced at Hao Zhijie and Hai Qing. The two of them did not seem to be lying. Chihiro Yeh's true body indeed made him extremely wary. However, the main body was currently in a critical period of refining the shell of the Marten Nether Lotus. As long as it was not forced too hard, it was likely that there would not be any big movements in the next few decades.
With Chihiro Yeh's Abyss Swallowing Sword and his thousands of years of operation here, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl's control of the restrictions here was incomparable to that of the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl. It would not be easy for the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl to deal with the Abyss Swallowing Sword, which had already taken form. However, in terms of spiritual sense alone, the Abyss Swallowing Sword was still inferior to the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl. As such, even with the help of their understanding of the restrictions here, Chihiro Yeh's men were still slightly slower than the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl's men in searching for the Celestial Chrysalis Crystal Conch.
However, the Celestial Chrysalis Crystal Conch was extremely fragile. Once it was discovered, the Body Integration cultivators from both sides would fight. The Celestial Chrysalis Crystal Conch would often be caught in the crossfire and eventually collapse.
The Celestial Chrysalis Crystal Conch could not be preserved for long. Depending on the quality of the object, it could only be preserved for a few years at most, while the shortest could be preserved for only a few months or even a few days. Even if Chihiro Yeh had one, it would not be too many. However, Chihiro Yeh could still use it to control the situation. After the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl entered this place, apart from the areas covered by its spiritual sense, it was like a blind man.
In a situation where the difference in strength between the two sides was not great. At this time, the subordinates' fangs and claws were the factors that directly determined the outcome of the battle. It was obvious that even though Chihiro Yeh's main body was busy, he still had the upper hand with many arrangements.
"Chihiro Yeh, this old bastard, is really scheming." At this time, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl had no way of using its abilities. Chihiro Yeh's Abyss Swallowing Sword did not dare to be too far away from his main body in this Star Domain. Otherwise, he would take advantage of it. As for the Devouring Swords cultivated by the lotus avatars, they did not have such a taboo.
However, the spies that Chihiro Yeh had set up were all places that the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl could not reach. Otherwise, he could abandon Chihiro Yeh and personally destroy Chihiro Yeh's arrangements. However, Chihiro Yeh did not give him the chance. He could only rely on his subordinates to do some things. As soon as he made a move, the Abyss Swallowing Sword would rush over in this starlight area. If he did not move, the Abyss Swallowing Sword would not move either. As for Chihiro Yeh's main body, he could naturally continue to refine the shell of the main lotus without any distractions.
As for those subordinates, Chihiro Yeh had made arrangements in advance. Coupled with the Star Chrysalis Crystal Snails that he had collected beforehand, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl would be at a disadvantage in terms of dispatching them. Although he knew Chihiro Yeh's entire plan, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl was helpless and had no way of breaking it. They could only watch helplessly as the situation gradually deteriorated to their disadvantage.
"If this old bastard refines the main lotus shell of the Star Chrysalis Crystal Snails and is completely free, even I will have to retreat." Thinking of this, the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl felt a wave of frustration. He sent Hai Qing and Hai Zhijie to continue searching for the Star Chrysalis Crystal Snails.
"The Star Chrysalis Crystal Snail disappeared into thin air?" Compared to the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl's depression, Chihiro Yeh, who was transformed by the Abyss Swallowing Sword, was also frowning. In Chihiro Yeh's eyes, the entire Star Field was just a slightly larger chessboard. Apart from the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl, who could be called a chess player, the other Fire Cloud Monsters, whose strength had been greatly reduced, could only be regarded as chess pieces at best.
Everything was going according to plan. But now, a small variable had appeared. Originally, even if he could not obtain it, the Star Chrysalis Crystal Snail that should have been destroyed in the battle between the two sides had disappeared at this time. As a result, everything that was under his control seemed to have deviated a little from its original trajectory.
For someone like Chihiro Yeh, who was in charge of the overall situation, even the slightest bit of deviation from his expectations was enough to arouse his doubts. Previously, even if Lu Xiaotian, the Fire Cloud Monsters, and Joe Yu had accidentally escaped from the White Lotus Altar, to Chihiro Yeh, Lu Xiaotian and the others had just escaped from a smaller cage into a bigger cage. There was no essential difference.
After he refined the Star Chrysalis Crystal Snails, he would have solved the problem of the sword embryo. It would not be too late to turn back and deal with the Nine-Eyed Demon Owl, the Fire Cloud Monsters, and Lu Xiaotian one by one. The Fire Cloud Monsters were not important. It would be good to obtain the life-saving technique, but it did not matter if he did not obtain it. However, Chihiro Yeh would not easily let go of Lu Xiaotian's Primordial Spirit cultivation technique.
