Fame Spreads Far and Wide

Heaven Origin Mountain Range, Heaven Origin Garden.

Yin Jie, Yin Shi, Yin Hao, and Yin Qing were sitting around Zhang Qing tea table, talking about something.

"Shen Long and Chu Buyu, two Nascent Soul Cultivator, easily broke through the Green Flood Dragon Tribe's Clan Protection Array?"

Yin Hao frowned and said.

"They probably have Array-Breaking Talisman, or magical Spirit Treasure, Strange Beast insects that can weaken Formation! They possess soul-binding treasures; many of their clansmen have had their souls destroyed, and that's the most troublesome part."

Yin Qing's expression was grave.

With most of the Heaven Origin Race's experts on the front lines dealing with Human Race cultivators, the strongholds of the three major tribes were successively destroyed. This meant that large tribes without Spirit Transformation cultivators or fifth-order formations were not safe at all.

As a result, the Heaven Origin Race had no choice but to abandon a large number of strongholds and concentrate its experts in important strongholds with Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators or fifth-order formations, which greatly affected the morale and resource allocation of the Heaven Origin Race.

"The Black Tiger Tribe and the Green Crane Tribe! Were they the ones who did it too?"

Yin Shi asked.

"I don't know. There wasn't a single survivor. There wasn't even time to send a message. If they had a spiritual Spirit Treasure capable of Soul Attack, a typical Fourth-Rank Array wouldn't be able to stop it."

Yin Qing frowned and said.

They had no idea how many enemies they had, or that the three large tribes were the work of Shen Long and Chu Buyu, or rather, two groups of Human Race cultivators.

"I'll go to the front lines myself! It seems we'll become increasingly passive if we don't quickly withdraw the Human Race cultivators."

Yin Jie said with a gloomy face.

"If it weren't for the accident that happened to Fellow Daoist Bi, the Human Race cultivators wouldn't have been able to deal with us with their full strength."

Yin Qing sighed.

If Bi Yuan hadn't run into trouble, he could have led a group of Heaven Origin Race experts to the Green Plum Realm to cause trouble, thus relieving the pressure on the front lines.

"We still cannot be careless. We should abandon unnecessary strongholds, gather our clansmen at key strongholds, Spirit Transformation cultivators lead the teams to apprehend the true culprit."

Yin Jie gave the order.

Yin Shi and the other two had no objections, and the order was quickly relayed.

······

The North Cold Ice Plain are covered in snow, and a cold wind blows in gusts.

A group of Heaven Origin Race cultivators were patrolling. Deep underground, Shen Long, Shen Hai, and Chu Buyu stood on the back of the Iron Tail Scorpion, while the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada Iron Tail Scorpion lay on its back.

A thick, Yellow Light Screen enveloped them, and wherever they passed, the soil parted to make way for them.

Their attack on the Green Flood Dragon Tribe was met with the arrival of a Spirit Transformation cultivator. Fortunately, Shen Long's Divine Sense was powerful enough to detect the Spirit Transformation cultivator early on.

They used a flying Spirit Treasure item to teleport away at top speed.

Even if they are delayed for a few breaths, the Spirit Transformation cultivators can still arrive.

In a battle between masters, victory or defeat can be decided in an instant.

Half an hour later, the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada emitted a piercing chirp, and the Iron Tail Scorpion stopped.

The Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada opened its mouth and spewed out a golden ray of light, instantly creating White Light Screen.

Shen Hai flicked his sleeve, and the Water Qilin Bead shot out, casting a spell into it.

The Water Qilin Bead emitted a blue halo, which touched the White Light Screen White Light Screen, causing ripples to spread across the curtain.

Soon, a gap appeared in the White Light Screen, and the gap continued to widen.

The Iron Tail Scorpion passed through the gap, Water Qilin Bead flew into Shen Hai's sleeve, whereupon the gap healed.

More than an hour later, Shen Long and his two companions appeared in a huge Ice Cave, where the temperature was frighteningly low.

"It's safe here. I used to hide here to cultivate."

Shen Long said, opening his mouth and spitting out a stream of Cyan Flame that landed on the ice wall.

The ice layer vanished instantly, the entire Ice Cave cave melted, and white mist filled the air, revealing a simple Stone Chamber.

Before long, the fog dissipated.

Shen Hai took out Formation Flag Formation Disk plates to set up the array, Chu Buyu opened two simple Stone Chamber for them to cultivate in.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, are you planning to break through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm here?"

Chu Buyu asked.

Shen Long nodded and said, "If we rush to the front lines now to fight against the Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Heaven Origin Race, we might be targeted by the enemy at any time. It's better to stay here and focus on cultivation to improve our strength. As for breaking through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm, that's too early for me."

"That's fine. I don't want to go back to the front lines either. This time we attacked three major tribes, wiped out ten Nascent Soul Cultivator, and obtained a large amount of resources. We don't need to worry about resources, so there's no need to go to the front lines again."

Chu Buyu expressed his strong agreement.

The strongholds of the Black Tiger Tribe, the Green Crane Tribe, and the Green Flood Dragon Tribe were successively destroyed by them, and they obtained a large amount of resources.

Shen Long took most of the alchemy materials, Chu Buyu took most of the weapon-refining materials, and they also obtained the Five-Light Morning Origin Fruit, so they could cultivate in peace.

"It's also thanks to the intense fighting and the fact that most of the top warriors from the three major tribes are on the front lines, otherwise we wouldn't have succeeded so easily. Let's wait for the situation to change! Hopefully, we can win."

Shen Long's face showed anticipation.

If the Human Race wins, they will rejoin the ranks; if the Human Race loses, they can only hide here and cultivate.

Chu Buyu nodded and said, "That's the only way."

After setting up the Formation, Shen Hai cast a spell on a yellow Formation Disk, and an earthen-yellow light screen appeared on the stone wall.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu each entered a Stone Chamber to cultivate in seclusion, while Shen Hai stayed in the cave to cultivate and Dharma Protector them.

Iron Tail Scorpion lay in the corner, Dharma Protector Shen Long.

······

Qingyang City, in the southern part of the Heaven Origin Realm.

In the Qingyang Hall, Lin Xiang and Qin Yue sat on the main seats, while Mo Wuya and ten other Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators sat on either side, their faces beaming with joy.

They recently launched a war, with Lin Xiang and Qin Yue personally taking action, killing one Spirit Transformation Spirit Transformation and severely injuring another, greatly boosting morale.

"It would be even better if we could kill one or two more Spirit Transformation cultivators."

True Monarch Taihao said with a smile.

"That's strange! Why does the Heaven Origin Race only have ten Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators?"

Lin Xiang frowned and said.

His concern was that Spirit Transformation cultivator from the Heaven Origin Race might lead a group to cause trouble in the Green Plum Realm or the Gan Yang Realm, which would be problematic.

"Perhaps they went to the Gan Yang Realm and Green Plum Realm to cause trouble, forcing us to return to their aid."

Mo Wuya analyzed.

This is normal; even the higher-ups of the Heaven Origin Race do the same.

"No, if they really wanted to do that, they would have done it already. Why are they only making a move now? Could it be that they've mobilized experts to the Green Plum Realm to destroy the Spatial Node leading to the Heaven Origin Realm? To cut off our path of arrival?"

"I ask the Green Lotus Sword Venerable in confusion."

"With three Spirit Transformation cultivators stationed at that Spatial Node and a large array set up, even if Spirit Transformation cultivator leads an attack, it won't be so easy to take it down. It's more likely that the Spirit Transformation cultivators from the Heaven Origin Race are causing trouble in the Green Plum Realm and the Gan Yang Realm."

Qin Yue shared her opinion.

Xu Qingyun took out a Dharma Disk that shimmered with blue light, cast a spell on it, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face.

"No need to guess, it's related to Shen Long and Chu Buyu."

Xu Qingyun said.

"Shen Long? Chu Buyu?"

Lin Xiang was completely bewildered.

"They are Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Gan Yang Realm. They invaded the Green Flood Dragon Tribe and annihilated a large number of Heaven Origin Race cultivators. The Black Tiger Tribe and Green Crane Tribe may also have been wiped out by them. The Heaven Origin Race has mobilized several Spirit Transformation cultivators from the front lines to capture them."

Xu Qingyun said slowly.
