They stayed in the same grand hall.
However, within the hall, there was no one.
Only a triangular pyramid.
“Phew!”
Upon entering this place, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“A temporal rift!”
“Hu Qing, what do you think about this?”
Jian Wushuang threw the matter to Hu Qing. He spoke the least, but he certainly had his own ideas.
They were not discussing how to seize Zhalong Mountain but were instead discussing the origin of the temporal rift.
Upon hearing this, Hu Qing expressed his opinion.
“This temporal rift should be somewhat similar to the abyss in the Northern Spacetime, only the temporal rift here is more powerful!”
Divine Wood King asked, “What do you mean by that?”
Everyone looked at Hu Qing.
“Brother Wushuang, are you certain the Beast God Weapon is in Zhalong Mountain?”
“Certain, and it’s most likely in the hands of the lord of Zhalong Mountain!” Jian Wushuang nodded. Although he dared not sense it directly, the prophet map given by Danbao marked Zhalong Mountain.
If it were in Zhalong Mountain City, he would have discovered it long ago.
If it were on Zhalong Mountain, a treasure drifting from the Northern Spacetime would most likely be obtained by the lord of Zhalong Mountain.
Upon hearing the definitive answer, Hu Qing provided his conclusion.
It was simple.
The Beast God Weapon likely drifted through the temporal rift and was obtained by the lord of Zhalong Mountain.
100,000 epochs, a very brief period.
Every 100,000 epochs, the lord of Zhalong Mountain would plunder treasures.
Opportunities rarely remained for future generations.
This time, it was a test for Young Master Hong Long.
Moreover, the lord of Zhalong Mountain was so certain there was a semi-divine weapon because he had visited the temporal rift. After finding no special treasures, he gave this opportunity to his son. Or perhaps there were special treasures, and he simply took them himself.
Speaking of which, this treasure land made Hu Qing very tempted.
Visiting once every 100,000 epochs was like harvesting crops.
It could also be set to be harvested once every million epochs.
Or even ten million epochs.
Everything was decided by the lord of Zhalong Mountain.
Occupying such a treasure land, there was indeed no need to struggle.
It was like sitting in an infinitely growing treasure vault.
If it were him, he wouldn’t venture out either. Who knows, perhaps one day, a divine artifact might drift over from a spacetime rift.
Such a high-level treasure land, yet it was occupied by a demigod.
It shouldn’t be.
There was definitely a secret.
If it was truly occupied by a demigod, it would probably be kept under wraps.
“Stop thinking about it. When I become a Universe Master, I’ll bestow this treasure land upon you all!” Wu Li laughed heartily, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes to rest.
Jian Wushuang smiled faintly and also closed his eyes.
The next morning.
As the first ray of sunlight fell, everyone was already packed and ready.
The pyramid was also put away.
Just as they stepped out of the hall, they saw that Young Master Hong Long was already waiting.
This time, the team originally consisted of nine people.
Young Master Hong Long, Guest Elder Shangyang, Elder Zhuge, and six guards.
Now, with Jian Wushuang and his four companions, there were already 14 people.
Each possessed divine power of 40 million.
If they reached the Northern Spacetime, they could sweep through it.
In the Realm God Continent, however, they seemed worthless.
They had gathered so many strong individuals so easily.
“Let’s go!”
With Young Master Hong Long’s command, everyone boarded a flying bird, soared into the sky, and left the Qingshui Hall.
As they departed, a crow perched on a wooden building across the street let out a call and then flew away.
As the treasured flying bird Bluebird just flew out of Zhalong City, a message was transmitted to the outside world.
A team of black-clad figures, hidden in the mountains not far from the spacetime rift, received the message.
“Lion King, the crow has sent word; they’ve already set off!”
In the mountains, the leader, a man in golden armor, tore off his black cloak and grinned, “Prepare to follow them!”
“Aren’t we waiting for the crow?” A voice from the shadows sounded somewhat apprehensive.
The Golden Armored Lion King pulled the figure out of the darkness, revealing an extremely strange face with stitches at the corners of his mouth and bizarre patterns painted on his face.
“Xi Jiu, if you’re scared, stay here. I’ll leave a share of the treasure for you!” The Lion King’s cold gaze bore into the other, and after receiving no response for a long time, he sneered, “Then follow me closely, you freak!”
After casually tossing Xi Jiu aside, the Lion King continued to observe the edge of the spacetime rift with a special power.
The darkness in the mountains lit up, revealing a teleportation array.
Once activated, it could enter the spacetime rift.
The chaotic spacetime within would conceal their entry.
But Xi Jiu, the freak, was still very afraid.
He knew how many strong individuals had fallen within the spacetime rift.
There was even a demigod with divine power of 70 million.
That’s why no one dared to covet Zhalong Mountain.
The lord of Zhalong Mountain was more like a freak, having killed countless who had tried to spy on this place.
Yet, they still dared to come.
Fortune favors the bold.
Moreover, this time, they were only after the treasures within the spacetime rift.
However, the leading Lion King did not think so.
He wanted the entire spacetime canyon.
“Zongzheng, I’ll enter soon. If what you gave me doesn’t work, I’ll make sure you pay!” The Lion King sent a threatening message to the outside world.
By a lake near Zhalong Mountain, a noble man in luxurious clothes disdainfully responded to the Lion King’s message.
“Stop spouting nonsense. This time, I’m staking my life on it!”
This group was the same star field bandits who had previously come to Zhalong City to procure items containing Starry Sky power.
They were indeed after the spacetime rift, just as Jian Wushuang had guessed.
Now they were here to seize it.
And they had a plan to deal with the lord of Zhalong Mountain.
Meanwhile, on Jian Wushuang’s side.
Zhalong City was very close to the spacetime rift.
It took only half a day to reach it.
The Bluebird’s speed was similar to the secret realm speed of the pyramid.
If it were the pyramid using cosmic-level speed, it would take the time of one incense stick to reach.
For Jian Wushuang, at full speed, it would only take a few breaths.
For the lord of Zhalong Mountain, it would be an instant!
That’s why Zhalong Mountain was chosen as the sect’s base.
Only when it was nearby could they feel at ease.
As for why they didn’t make this place the sect’s base.
That would be too exaggerated.
The surroundings were desolate.
Not suitable, nor appropriate.
Too conspicuous would not be good either.
Being able to reach it instantly was enough.
No need to station there.
The spacetime rift wouldn’t disappear; if anyone dared to come, they would be killed.
There was no getting past this checkpoint.
“We’ve arrived!” Young Master Hong Long was the first to disembark from the bird, pointing to the large formation ahead, “This is a large formation crafted by a Universe Master my father hired. Once activated, even a Universe Master would need three breaths to break it. In those three breaths, my father could reach the formation and defend it, holding out for a month.”
