Time drifted by. In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed.
During those six months, the guardian beasts had made several trips back to attack them. But with the aid of the grand formation and formation traps, Lei Zhan and the others had little trouble driving them off.
After a few such attempts, the guardian beasts seemed to give up completely. They stopped launching sneak attacks and only watched from a distance.
On this day, protected by Taotie and the Chaos Fierce Beast, the other cultivators from the Heaven, Earth, and Yellow alliances arrived. Sensing the aura radiating from the treasure, everyone was thrilled and could hardly wait to enter.
After waiting so long, Bai Lu and the others were growing impatient too. Seeing that everyone had arrived, they stopped delaying and had Si Kong Xuan and the others take out the soul crystals. The crowd lined up and entered the treasure.
Since they hadn't sensed any Law Power, everyone wasn't too disappointed that the treasure wasn't a secret realm. On the contrary, sensing the dense Immortal Yuan Power and aura of the Great Dao, they were all thrilled.
"Tsk, tsk. The aura of the Great Dao here is incredibly dense, more than twice as strong as at the place where we cultivated before. Even if we can't find a way to counter the Arrow Formation, this trip will be worth it." Sensing the aura around him, Tong Lu was full of praise.
"Everyone, as before, each alliance will take responsibility for one direction. Send out scouting teams to explore, and report anything unusual to the others," Tan Tai Chang Feng said. Seeing everyone nod, he added a reminder: "Remember to focus on finding a way to counter North Xuan's Arrow Formation and grand formation.
