Chapter 315: Wait for me, I'll be back soon

The Tian Duan chasm wasn't forgotten by the passage of time; rather, Chen Xun and his companions simply forgot to take it with them. In their left hand was the unforgettable Destruction Stone, and in their right, they collected spirit stones day after day, year after year.

"Brothers, let's dig a bit more and then leave. We won't be greedy. Da Li is likely mobilizing cultivators from all directions, so let's give them some time to prepare."

"Moo moo~~"

"No problem, Xun. We can't possibly dig it all up."

Three deep voices echoed from the depths of the Tian Duan chasm, as a giant ship drifted silently in the air like a ghost ship.

The Chaoyuan Red Treasure Tree had been cultivated for twenty thousand years, yet it still seemed insignificant before Little Crane, not having reached its limit.

However, the fruits were growing larger and more vibrant, filled with life, appearing as if they were real blood, quite miraculous.

Black Bull continued to observe from time to time, taking out a small booklet to record the changes.

Longevity points were still being added to defense, as the three-eyed creature had left a shadow in their hearts.

...

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year again. A system prompt sounded in Chen Xun's mind, but their eyes had long turned into the shape of Destruction Stones, oblivious to the passage of time.

With a single thought, he added longevity points to defense.

Thousands of storage rings were nearly full, and the branches of the Crane Spirit Five Elements Tree were laden, swaying with the sound of wind chimes in the Destruction Wind.

The Chaoyuan Red Treasure Tree had grown quite tall, reaching thirty thousand years, but this was its limit, and thousands of fruits were falling madly.

Yet, as the fruits fell, the Chaoyuan Red Treasure Tree began to wither and decay, still devoid of death energy, far inferior to the malignant tumors of the world of immortals.

"Moo moo~" Black Bull stood quietly under the tree, observing as its years rapidly declined, like an old man reaching the end of his life, having lived a brilliant life.

Even the World Soul couldn't revive it, and it had to start from scratch. The small booklet was filled with words, unsure of how to classify these spiritual herbs or their effects.

Their world of immortals was truly too backward, with rare ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.

These earthly treasures had long been plucked clean, with no abundant spiritual qi or perfect environment for them to grow continuously.

Little Chi slowly opened its eyes, inexplicably swallowing saliva as it gazed at the dark red fruits, unable to overcome this innate instinct even as a Nascent Soul spiritual beast.

"Moo moo~~"

"Brother Bull."

"Moo!"

Black Bull took out over a hundred Chaoyuan Red Treasure Fruits and handed them to Little Chi's claws, "Moo moo~"

Little Chi carefully received them with trembling claws, eyes comically exaggerated under the bandit mask, "Brother Bull... I..."

Bang!

Before it could finish speaking, Black Bull pressed it down with a hoof, as family didn't need to be pretentious, not even glancing at the elder brother.

Little Chi's eyes were filled with emotion, but its claws trembled slightly, nodding heavily without saying more.

It looked at elder brother Chen Xun, who was still writing and drawing in the small booklet, seemingly indifferent, as if it was a matter of course.

"Xun! Brother Bull!"

Little Chi suddenly roared, standing up with eyes turning red, "I..."

"Damn it, Little Chi, why are you yelling? You scared me so much I couldn't write straight, damn it, Bull, beat it up!"

"Moo moo!"

"Ah~~ Ah!!"

Little Chi was chased and beaten by Chen Xun and Black Bull, wailing miserably as it ran around the giant ship's deck, clutching its head.

But the branches of the Crane Spirit Five Elements Tree suddenly extended, gently wrapping around it, reducing the number of hooves and fists on its body.

It cried out in pain, no longer daring to be pretentious, clinging to the Crane Spirit Five Elements Tree and calling out for Crane Brother!

The next day.

Chen Xun, Black Bull, and Little Chi sat on the deck, talking in low voices.

"Bull, go set up the large teleportation arrays. Our storage rings and bags are completely filled with Destruction Stones, there's no need to dig more."

"Moo moo~"

"Little Chi, focus on cultivating, break through the late Nascent Soul stage to the Transformation stage. You can absorb the cold energy converted by Destruction Stones on the Boundary Battlefield, your cultivation should progress quickly."

Chen Xun's eyes were serious, his tone firm, "This world of immortals can't possibly offer you such good cultivation resources, make the most of it."

"Yes, Xun." Little Chi nodded seriously, crouching on the ground, "I will cultivate diligently."

It let out a low snort, Brother Bull's Five Elements Decomposition Technique was too powerful, combined with its flame talent, it was a perfect match.

"Moo?" Black Bull nudged Chen Xun, eyes filled with curiosity.

"Bull, set up at least three large teleportation arrays. If the path doesn't open successfully, the world of immortals at home has a route to Da Li, at least it's a hope."

Chen Xun didn't respond to Black Bull, continuing his arrangements, "After we return home this time, we need to prepare to enter the battlefield, possibly our last journey in this boundary."

He exhaled lightly, continuing, "But before that, I need to go to Da Li to buy some things, I'll leave this place to you, I don't understand formations."

"Moo moo?!"

"Xun, let's go together!"

Black Bull and Little Chi were startled, something seemed off with their elder brother.

Chen Xun waved his hand, suddenly chuckling, "Just buying some local specialties to bring back to the sect, what are you thinking, I'll be back soon."

Hearing this, Black Bull and Little Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief, realizing he was just going shopping.

Chen Xun's expression was calm, his demeanor transcendent, as he slowly stood up, "Prepare to leave, we can't stay in the Tian Duan chasm for long."

They followed suit, standing beside Chen Xun.

Buzz—

The giant ship emitted a grand sound, beginning to ascend, piercing through the boundless darkness.

Upon exiting the dim Tian Duan chasm, it was already a moonlit night, the pale moonlight gently casting over the land, shrouding the Tian Duan Plains in a layer of hazy moonlight.

Black Bull handed Chen Xun several sub-array flags for the teleportation arrays, which they had set up along the way, saving many spirit stones for the teleportation arrays.

"Bull, Little Chi, Little Crane, I'll be back soon."

Chen Xun's face carried a gentle smile, waving towards the distance in the air, "Wait for me."

"Moo moo~~"

"Xun, we'll wait for you here."

Black Bull and Little Chi also called out towards the distance, at that moment, under the moonlight, that transcendent silhouette wrote a fleeting moment of mystery, carrying a touch of solitude.

They continued to gaze into the distance, not starting work for a long time, until that figure completely disappeared.

...

In Da Li, at the Jiang family ancestral land, the place was brightly lit, filled with a tense atmosphere.

The war between the Jiang family and the Yu family was forcibly halted, even a late-stage Transformation powerhouse came to mediate, with undercurrents surging across the twenty states, a storm brewing.

The two ancestors of the Yu family left with a cold remark: this matter will not end with this generation.

Many of the Jiang family's prodigies frowned secretly, especially the second disciple of Chan Yin Temple, Jiang Zhaocheng.

He returned to the Jiang family with Little Fatty after discussing the Dao with his master, and several junior disciples had long gone their separate ways, driven out of Chan Yin Temple by their master.

He seemed to vaguely understand why his parents wanted him to leave the Jiang family and join the Buddhist sect in Da Li, to keep him away from the Jiang family's troubles.

Jiang Zhaocheng was terrified at the thought, fearing the Jiang family had always been preparing some grand plan, with far-reaching implications.

In this battle, the black-clothed people who suddenly appeared on the battlefield were not from the two ancient immortal cultivation families, but seemed to come from the Unwarranted Sea.

His gaze was deep, looking towards the forbidden area in the back mountain, wary of the two ancestors' deep schemes, feeling a natural resistance in his heart.
