From this, one could see the benefits of having a leader in such a situation. Luo Shenzi shouted, and many people immediately came to his aid.
One after another, rare treasures of various shapes were summoned. As their spiritual power surged, colorful lights began to bloom, enveloping the two fleeing star beasts.
The power of Heavenly Treasures was generally much higher than other treasures of the same quality. This was because Heavenly Treasures were treasures that could only be used once. No matter who obtained one, they would treat it as their trump card and would not use it easily.
However, no matter how valuable a rare treasure was, it was still no more valuable than a red talisman. Since Luo Shenzi had even used a red talisman, how could the cultivators with rare treasures be stingy with their own?
This round of attacks was quite effective. The two Yue Yao Star Beasts were both heavily injured, and their movements had slowed down. Their auras had also decreased, and one of the Yue Yao Star Beasts had even lost its tail, causing it to bleed.
At this moment, the red light in Luo Shenzi's hand suddenly bloomed, transforming into a shocking attack that slashed toward one of the fleeing Moon Jade Star Beasts.
The might of this attack was almost at the level of a mid-stage Moon Jade Star Beast!
The star beast that he had targeted was already heavily injured from the encirclement, so it had no time to dodge this attack. Suddenly, a moonlight appeared on the star beast's body, enveloping it like flowing water. This was clearly a self-defense technique.
However, this method was not very effective against the Red Talisman's attack. The moonlight was broken, and a huge wound appeared on the astral beast's back. Through the wound, one could clearly see the squirming innards. This attack had almost cut the astral beast in half.
However, it was still not dead. As if it knew that it was doomed, it actually turned around and charged back.
"Kill!" Luo Shenzi shouted. Many cultivators attacked together, quickly killing the star beast on the spot.
However, the crowd watched helplessly as the second star beast fled in a sorry state. That star beast was also heavily injured, but it still managed to escape. Even if someone tried to stop it, they could not stop it.
Many cultivators had died in this battle, yet only one of the two Lunar Star Beasts had been killed. And this was under the premise that Luo Shenzi had paid the price of a red talisman. Such a result was definitely not a passing grade. However, since it had come to this, everyone could only accept it.
At the end of the day, even if these thousand people had come in response to the summons, they were still a sheet of loose sand. If they really came from the same sect and worked together, they would still be able to slay the two Yue Yaos of the Thousand Star Mansion.
After the battle, some people immediately flew in the direction of Heavenly Dog.
Even though one of the Moon Jade Star Beasts had escaped, they were severely injured, so it was hard to say how much of their strength they could still unleash. Thus, there was nothing to be afraid of. Now that the biggest obstacle had been cleared, the cultivators naturally couldn't wait to head to the Heavenly Dog Planet in search of opportunities.
A large number of cultivators left, and Luo Shenzi sat cross-legged to recover. Activating the red talisman had consumed a lot of his spiritual power. There were a few figures standing beside him, and they should be Luo Shenzi's peers.
One of them looked at the departing cultivators and harrumphed coldly. "A motley crew!"
It was clear that they didn't want to hide anything from the other cultivators. Based on their performance just now, it was certain that many people had been holding back. If more people had summoned their rare treasures, then the second star beast might not have had the chance to escape.
Luo Shenzi had even used his red talisman, yet these people were still unwilling to part with a rare treasure. This was naturally infuriating.
However, another person chuckled softly and said, "It's hard to fathom a person's heart. There's no need to force it. Besides … this is a good thing for us."
The person who spoke earlier frowned. "How is it a good thing that Yue Yao is still alive?"
That person said, "Even though that Yue Yao isn't dead, she's severely injured. Even if we accidentally run into her, she won't be much of a threat. However, if the others run into her …"
They were all very powerful, and they even had someone like Luo Shenzi with them. If they really ran into the severely injured Yue Yao, they would indeed be able to put up a fight. However, the others didn't have their trump cards.
The cultivator who spoke earlier suddenly came to a realization. "So that's how it is!" His gloomy mood was instantly swept away.
Even though the cultivators from the four galaxies had been working together earlier, once they entered Heavenly Dog Planet, unless they were from the same realm, they would all be enemies.
If they could eliminate more opponents, then their chances of obtaining the star beast would also be higher.
While Luo Shenzi was still recovering, Lu Ye had already arrived at Heavenly Dog Planet on his star beast with Li Shang and Du Lang in tow.
They charged into the thick clouds and looked down from above. The environment on Heavenly Dog Planet was extremely harsh. Aside from star beasts, no other living beings could survive on such a desolate planet for long periods of time.
Lu Ye had been curious as to why a star beast would treat a desolate planet as its lair. However, when he arrived, he discovered that this desolate planet was somewhat special.
There were huge craters everywhere on Heavenly Dog Planet's surface. The depth of each crater was unknown, and the insides were pitch black. There were countless such craters on the entire surface of Heavenly Dog Planet.
Du Lang stood beside Lu Ye and explained, "The interior of Heavenly Dog Planet is like a beehive. The terrain is extremely intricate and complex. That Moon Jade star beast must have fled back. No one knows where it is hiding. Brother Lu, you have to be careful."
Lu Ye nodded and carefully observed this desolate planet from above. He vaguely felt that this desolate planet's shape resembled a huge Heavenly Dog. It wasn't just a simple resemblance …
This was because he had seen similar realms before.
When Lu Ye first arrived at the Blood Refinement Realm, he felt that the Blood Refinement Realm was like the body of a female giant with her head and limbs cut off. In the end, it was confirmed that it was indeed the body of a female giant. However, she had died many years ago, and no one knew who killed her. After her death, her body turned into a realm.
If Heavenly Dog Planet's situation was the same as the Blood Refinement Realm, then didn't that mean that this was also a realm formed by the corpse of an extremely powerful star beast?
The Blood Refinement Realm gave birth to the Blood Clan, while Heavenly Dog Planet gave birth to the Heavenly Dog star beast. The two had many similarities.
If that was the case, it was understandable that the Heavenly Dog star beast used this place as its nest. This was the place that gave birth to them.
There were no traces of other cultivators. Those who came here had already entered the underground through the holes on the surface.
Lu Ye was very curious about what kind of opportunity could be considered a unique opportunity for a weapon cultivator. Originally, he didn't want to get involved. However, due to various coincidences, since he was already here, there was no harm in joining in the fun.
As for the Lunar Jade star beast that had escaped, Lu Ye naturally wasn't afraid of it.
Lu Ye steered the Star Boat to a random hole. He put away the Star Boat and took the lead to enter. Du Lang and Li Shang, who were carrying the little girl, followed closely behind.
After descending for nearly ten thousand feet, they finally reached the bottom of the hole. The bottom wasn't completely sealed. There were passages in all directions. Just as Du Lang had said, the interior of Heavenly Dog Planet was like a complicated beehive.
Lu Ye didn't know which direction to go, so he randomly chose a direction and led the way forward. As he walked, he looked around.
There were forks in the path from time to time. Lu Ye went straight ahead without any pattern.
Soon, he discovered a problem. Inside Heavenly Dog Planet, his Divine Sense was greatly suppressed and could only extend about ten feet from his body.
This made him feel a little strange, because he did not sense any strange power from this place. It was understandable that the Mist Dragon suppressed his Divine Sense. After all, it was a Starry Sky Wonder, but what was so strange about the interior of the Heavenly Dog Star?
Gradually, Lu Ye's expression became bewildered, because he found that this passageway didn't seem to be a simple passageway …
Combining this with his previous conjecture about Heavenly Dog Planet, Lu Ye was shocked. Could these passages be blood vessels?
The passages were large and small, and there were many forks. The more forked the passages were, the smaller they were, very much like blood vessels.
Occasionally, he could hear some sounds of fighting, but because the passages were complicated, Lu Ye couldn't tell where these sounds were coming from.
After walking for a while, they suddenly entered a relatively spacious space. However, inside that space, pairs of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up and stared straight at Lu Ye and the others.
Immediately after, the roars of beasts could be heard as Heavenly Dog Star Beasts pounced. Lu Ye sensed that these Star Beasts weren't very strong. The strongest was only at the Constellation Realm, and some were only equivalent to Divine Sea and True Lake Realm Star Beasts. Naturally, he didn't take them seriously.
The Mountain Pan Saber's saber flashed a few times and killed these Star Beasts.
As they continued forward, they encountered some Heavenly Dog Star Beasts from time to time. However, they weren't very strong and could be easily dealt with.
However, Lu Ye discovered something interesting. These Heavenly Dog Star Beasts seemed to have some special abilities here. They could perfectly hide themselves and were difficult to detect before they launched a sneak attack.
There were several times when Lu Ye only noticed when the Star Beasts launched their attacks.
This was obviously not an ability of the Heavenly Dog Star Beasts. There was a high chance that the special environment of this place gave them this ability. After all, this was the place where they were born. It wasn't surprising that they could display some special abilities here.
Occasionally, there would be sounds of fighting coming from all directions. It was obvious that those cultivators were fighting. However, after walking for so long, Lu Ye didn't encounter any cultivators.
Luo Shenzi had gathered more than 1,000 cultivators. Even though there were casualties in the previous battle, there were still 800 to 900 people who entered the Heavenly Dog Star. So many people, but they didn't encounter each other. It was obvious that the internal environment of this place was complicated.
Lu Ye searched for two consecutive days. Besides encountering some Constellation Heavenly Dogs, he didn't find anything else.
If this continued, Lu Ye estimated that he might not find anything even if he searched here for a few months.
After thinking carefully, if the opportunity was really on the Heavenly Dog Star, it should be in a more special place. For example, where the heart was? Or where the brain was?
When he thought of this, Lu Ye felt that he had a direction.
It wasn't difficult to reach the location of the heart. He just had to follow the largest passage all the way. Lu Ye remembered that he entered the Heavenly Dog Star from the direction of the spine. Therefore, it shouldn't be far from the location of the heart.
