Chapter 2058: The Plan!
Chapter 2058: The Plan!
The bald elder said in a deep voice:
"I’ve already investigated this matter some time ago."
"Such a valuable treasure surely wouldn’t be in the hands of ordinary people."
"Ultimately, it might appear among those Plane Breakers."
"So, taking advantage of the alien race invasion, I’ve sent out everyone who might be carrying that treasure."
"When those top powers from the Primordial Realm descend upon the Heavenly Origin World to search for this item, they will definitely use that Heavenly Divine Power again to calculate the whereabouts of the Plane Treasure."
"As long as it’s not within the territories of the Human and Demon Clans, both can survive this calamity!"
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of excitement flashed in the eyes of the robed man.
However, on the surface, he still appeared to be in a sudden realization.
"I see."
"Brother Yue, your plan is indeed brilliant."
"In this way, not only can we mitigate the crisis facing the Human and Demon Clans, but we can also divert disaster. Perhaps, this is a great opportunity for our clans to rise."
"But..." Just as he was speaking, the robed man suddenly hesitated.
"Brother Yue, how can you be sure that the one carrying the Plane Treasure has been sent out and hasn’t been overlooked, possibly still in Fengyuan City?"
The bald elder smiled slightly.
"There’s absolutely no such possibility!"
The robed man took a deep breath and said:
"Brother Yue, I’m not doubting you. It’s just that this matter is of significant consequence. A slight misstep could bring about a catastrophe for our Human and Demon Clans."
"Thus, I must be cautious."
"May I ask if you have identified the person carrying the Plane Treasure?"
The bald elder laughed and said:
"I knew I couldn’t hide it from you!"
"Indeed, I do have a few suspects."
Excitement flashed in the eyes of the robed man.
"Who might they be?"
The bald elder laughed and said:
"I have recorded the information of these people in this Jade Talisman."
As he spoke, the bald elder took out a Jade Talisman and handed it to the robed man.
The robed man eagerly began to examine it.
However.
As soon as his Divine Sense touched the Jade Talisman, suddenly, a mysterious cyan light shot out from it.
The robed man’s face changed dramatically, and a pendant Magic Artifact on his neck instantly activated, forming a powerful shield.
However, that mysterious cyan light effortlessly pierced the strong shield.
It directly shot into the robed man’s forehead.
In an instant, the robed man’s body shook, and the next moment, a phantom emerged from his body, rushing toward the bald elder.
But at this moment, the bald elder suddenly grinned and threw a punch.
A terrifying force erupted from the bald elder’s body.
Boom!
Accompanied by a muffled sound, the phantom was directly blown away by the powerful punch.
At this time, a terrified voice sounded.
"You... you’re not Yue Changfeng, who are you?"
The bald elder’s appearance changed dramatically in an instant, transforming from a bald old man into a tall, imposing middle-aged man.
"It’s you?"
"Haoyuan Heavenly Venerate!!!"
The phantom screamed and tried to flee!
However, the next moment, Haoyuan Heavenly Venerate raised his hand, and a massive Bronze Tripod flew out.
The Bronze Tripod emitted a mysterious cyan light, enveloping the phantom.
Having no real resistance, the phantom was suppressed and devoured by the Bronze Tripod.
After everything was done, a bald elder entered from outside.
He smiled broadly.
"Thank you, Brother Hao Yuan, for your help."
"Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to hold back this Heavenly Water Realm expert of the Withered Wood Water Clan alone!"
This Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate is one of the Five Great Venerables of the Human and Demon Clans!
Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate laughed and said:
"Brother Yue, no need to be polite."
"We both belong to the pillars of the Human Race and should support each other!"
After speaking, he looked at the robed man in front of him.
With the phantom subdued, the robed man’s body quietly sat there, motionless.
Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate approached the robed man’s body, touched it, and then shook his head.
The bald elder’s expression became complex, and his eyes revealed sadness.
"I never expected Elder Lei to be utterly annihilated in the end!"
"It’s all my fault; I discovered it too late."
"Otherwise, Elder Lei wouldn’t have met such a fate!"
Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate patted the bald elder’s shoulder, saying:
"Brother Yue, there’s no need to blame yourself too much."
"This phantom was a Heavenly Water Realm expert from the Withered Water Wood Clan, equivalent to an Integration Realm expert of our Human Race!"
"Moreover, the Withered Water Wood Clan is naturally adept at disguising and controlling, making it hard to guard against."
The bald elder sighed and said:
"Brother Hao Yuan, the battle hasn’t officially begun, and yet we’ve already lost an Integration Realm Elder in Fengyuan City. The price is indeed steep for us."
"Brother Hao Yuan, how confident are you that the Plane Treasure is in Fengyuan City?"
Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate said in a deep voice:
"I am at least thirty percent confident!"
"Thirty percent?"
The bald elder seemed somewhat surprised.
Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate sighed and said:
"The matter of the Plane Treasure is too significant. I spent a great deal of effort to consult an expert to deduce this thirty percent confidence."
"We don’t have the time to wait any longer."
"So, we must take a gamble."
"I hope that the bearer of the Plane Treasure has already left Fengyuan City!"
"Brother Yue, don’t be too concerned; we must consider the bigger picture."
The bald elder sighed.
"Alright, Brother Hao Yuan, I hope this move can protect Fengyuan City and safeguard the Human and Demon Clans!"
...
In the Bone Forest.
A fierce battle was taking place.
A large group of peculiar vines was attacking.
These vines extended down from the towering trees around them, appearing decayed and ready to snap at any moment.
However, in reality, they possessed great flexibility and aggression, able to see through the Feather Spiritual Artifact’s disguise.
This led to Zhou Yu and his companions being attacked without warning.
Of course, at the first moment of attack, Zhou Yu and his group immediately reacted and started counterattacking.
However, what they didn’t expect.
In just a moment, the number of vines doubled, completely encircling them.
Of course, although these vines were formidable, Zhou Yu’s group of five, being elites of the Human and Demon Clans, managed to handle the situation with ease.
At this time, Xiao Baifeng, while manipulating flames to deal with the vines in front of him, said:
"These vines are indeed strange. I didn’t expect them to see through my artifact."
Beside him, Li Su laughed and said:
"It’s not surprising. After all, we are already deep in the Bone Forest, which is the territory of the Withered Wood Water Clan. Their Innate Divine Ability is disguise, so they naturally excel at seeing through disguises."
"However, this also serves as a reminder for us that going forward, we can’t just rely on disguised artifacts but must rely on our own skills."
"If anyone accidentally leaks their aura and alerts the enemy, they should face the consequences on their own."
Saying this, Li Su glanced at Zhou Yu and Ye Ling not far away.
