Chapter 1155: Chapter 728: Dark Blood, Attention, News_2 Chapter 1155: Chapter 728: Dark Blood, Attention, News_2 Such a change made the Ten Crown King involuntarily hesitate.
He hadn't expected that this dark blood, despite its eerie appearance, would be so fragile.
Broad Sword Man shared the same sentiment.
He had merely waved his sword casually just moments ago, without employing his Divine Skills, and yet he directly severed the tentacle formed from the dark blood.
The dark blood only seemed eerie but was actually of no practical use.
However, why did such an incident occur beneath the Ancient Guidance Palace, leaving everyone somewhat at a loss?
“If I had known, I wouldn't have struck so ruthlessly. I should have taken some back and asked the Adult. Perhaps the Adult would know what this is!” the Ten Crown King lamented regretfully.
He had severely overestimated the dark blood, resulting in no evidence being left behind.
“No worries, Heavenly Brothers, didn't you notice the Adult gave a few extra glances at this Ancient Guidance Palace before leaving? It's clear that the abnormality here was already seen, and everything is under control!” Tu Wa Zi waved his hand, appearing confident.
“Really?” the Ten Crown King asked uncertainly, puzzled as to why he hadn't noticed.
Moreover, did the Adult even make an appearance?
It seemed that only a hand had reached out to suppress the nine-headed monster.
However, following Tu Wa Zi's remarks, the Ten Crown King felt considerably more at ease.
As the Ancient Guidance Palace was extracted, everyone, despite their doubts, knew that they couldn't figure it out on their own and decided to head back home.
Tu Wa Zi took out the Ancient Ship that Old Man Lin had given him.
The originally tiny object, small as a mustard seed, expanded instantly with the wind, and in just a moment, it even dwarfed the massive Ancient Guidance Palace.
On the Ancient Ship.
The deck was wide.
Qin Hao followed Shi Hao to the back of the crowd and, once on board, stealthily tugged at Shi Hao's clothes.
“What's wrong?” Shi Hao turned around and asked with a slightly puzzled tone.
“Brother, why are there so many people here?” Qin Hao glanced briefly at Tu Wa Zi and the others at the front of the deck, pursed his lips, and spoke in a muffled voice.
He wasn't very familiar with the group, but he had seen a few of them and had heard of their notoriety. Each one was extraordinary, formidable, and terrifying, and most importantly, they all hailed from a Holy Land beyond imagination.
To be honest, Qin Hao had never dreamt that his own capture would lead to such an assembly of people.
If one didn't know better, they might think he had a significant relationship with them.
But he knew very well that there was no relationship at all; he hadn't even met some of them. Clearly, they had come on behalf of his older brother.
However, truth be told, no matter whether they were related to him or not, having so many unexpected allies was exhilarating.
Above all, it gave him a strong sense of safety.
“To tell the truth, I'm puzzled too,” Shi Hao said to Qin Hao with a wry smile, speaking candidly.
Who was he to ask? He was also at a loss as to why things had developed so unexpectedly and how, in the end, so many people had arrived. It was like a congregation at a temple in the Lower Realm, where even toddlers still babbling were brought along.
Shi Hao had initially thought that Senior Liu had some other profound and inscrutable plan.
But up to now, he still couldn't discern what that plan might be.
It felt like so many were dispatched just to make a brief appearance, as if just to show face.
But what was there to show face for?
Hearing Shi Hao's response, Qin Hao was visibly taken aback.
He knew his own brother well–always decisive, always independent, and once a decision was made, no one could change his mind.
This was the first time he saw him completely befuddled.
Shi Hao, unable to make heads or tails of it, lazily chose not to ponder further.
After all, he only needed to know that Senior Liu had no ill will towards him–that was enough.
At the rear of the Ancient Ship.
Qin Chang Sheng and Mu Chang Sheng sat facing each other.
“Qin Tao, did you recognize these youngsters before?”
After a long silence, Mu Changsheng spoke solemnly.
“Some I am acquainted with, some I am not.”
Qin Changsheng spoke slowly and honestly, his expression slightly strange, not understanding why Mu Changsheng would ask such a question.
The two of them indeed knew each other, but their relationship was not particularly close.
“It seems, Fellow Daoist, that you are quite familiar with that senior?” Mu Changsheng's gaze passed over Qin Changsheng and looked towards Shi Hao, who was whispering with Qin Hao.
Qin Changsheng nodded but did not clearly state the relationship between them.
There was no need for it; he and Mu Changsheng were not close. Why should he disclose his background to someone so clearly?
Mu Changsheng seemed to have anticipated this reaction and smiled slightly, his voice somewhat emotional, “During the calamity of Changsheng, three of us were selected, but only you, Fellow Daoist, saw through the secrets early on and, before getting too deeply eroded, used great willpower to forcibly remove that piece of bone.
Just now, I heard your clan's people addressing that young man. It seems he may have some blood relation to you. Speaking of which, Fellow Daoist, you really are a person with profound fortune.”
“What are these words for, Fellow Daoist Mu?” Qin Changsheng was not dazzled by Mu Changsheng's words of flattery.
On the contrary, Qin Changsheng's eyes were sharp, somewhat vigilant.
He was not familiar with Mu Changsheng, and there was absolutely no need for the other party to flatter him.
“Just some spontaneous feelings!” Mu Changsheng waved his hand, still smiling, yet he said no more and fell silent. This reaction left Qin Changsheng somewhat awkwardly unable to advance or retreat.
Outside the Ancient Land, the outside world was in a state of uproar.
Many people gathered together, staring into the depths of the Immortal Domain. In the desolate and dark depths of the Universe, there were also blazing gazes looking towards this place.
Because the commotion caused by Shi Hao, Tu Wa Zi, and others entering the depths of the Immortal Domain was simply too great.
Additionally, under the manipulation of Old man Lin, there was some deliberate promotion.
The flight altitude of the Life Ancient Ship was abnormally low, its enormous body crossing who knows how many Fairy Cities, like dark clouds hanging overhead, leaving people no choice but to take notice, whether they liked it or not.
Many were astonished in their hearts.
Especially some of the older generation Cultivators.
They knew too well the horror of that piece of the Ancient Land deep within the Immortal Domain.
That place was a symbol of ill omen. In the distant past, an Ancient Guidance Palace had crashed there, and the chaotic and desperate beings that escaped from it were incredibly powerful. Even with only the Primordial Spirit remaining, they still made people dread them, and even Immortal Kings would not dare to investigate lightly.
Before approaching that Ancient Land, there was a vast area piled with white bones. As far as the eye could see, there was an endless expanse of bones, piled up together like a vast white ocean.
Those bones were not from elsewhere; they were left by beings who, from ancient times to the present, attempted to probe the Ancient Guidance Palace.
In even older times, beings of Giant Level had been buried there, leading later generations to officially declare it a Forbidden Area.
That place contained great terror.
This was common knowledge.
Now, the Holy Land was actually marching into that region with great fanfare, and no one knew what they were up to…
But compared to the past when witnessing others journey to that Ancient Land, people now had some expectations.
Because it was the Holy Land.
And it was presided over by an inconceivable being.
In a bustling tavern, voices clamored.
At the central spot, a slender and beautifully-eyed female zither player was sitting in front of her instrument, gently strumming the strings, and the melodious sound echoed throughout the tavern.
On an ordinary day, countless diners would be cheering, but at the moment, everyone's attention was on the deep Immortal Domain, desperately wanting to know what was happening there.
However, due to their own lack of strength, no one dared to go and find out.
“Is the Holy Land finally planning to take action against that Ancient Land?”
Some people gathered together and whispered among themselves, their strength not too weak, yet they now gossiped like chattering women, unable to stop.
“It seems likely. Although that being from the Holy Land rarely shows up now, anyone with clear eyes can see that the path they are on is vast. After initially taking control of the Immortal Domain, they struck down Ao Sheng and three great Immortal Kings with thunderous methods, shaking the entire Immortal Domain, and later opened the Immortal Gate…”
“You are all too behind with the news. That Ancient Land has already experienced a collision,” boasted someone proudly, showing off the latest news.
This person was from the Spirit Clan, their body wrapped in radiance, appearing as though carved from real jade, with a third vertical eye on their forehead, signifying no trivial strength.
