Chapter 2822: Chapter 2822: Good Fortune Arrives

After Fang Bai parted ways with the gods of the Emperor’s Palace, the Vermilion Phoenix Star System, under the guardianship of these Gods, enjoyed tranquility and harmony on each star.

Especially the main star of the Vermilion Phoenix Star System, the Vermilion Phoenix Star, transformed into a land of purity and bliss by the combined efforts of the gods of the Emperor’s Palace, rarely seeing any conflicts.

Many gods of the Emperor’s Palace have been guided and instructed by Fang Bai personally, becoming adept in various divine method secret techniques.

Especially Fang Bai’s intimate confidants and direct disciples, who are knowledgeable in the Array Path.

It was precisely them who set up various gathering divine formations of different sizes on Vermilion Phoenix Star, absorbing divine power from the depths of the starry sky, making the Vermilion Phoenix Star permeated with thick divine power throughout the year.

For this reason, the Vermilion Phoenix Star has become a cultivation holy land of the entire star system, its reputation spreading far and wide, attracting numerous strong figures from the Divine Realm to settle and cultivate there.

The gods of the Emperor’s Palace, benefiting from the divine power absorbed by the gathering divine formations and the vast cultivation resources left by Fang Bai initially, have rapidly advanced in strength, becoming unrecognizable compared to when Fang Bai left.

The gods of the Emperor’s Palace with the most outstanding talents and qualifications certainly include Fang Bai’s intimate confidants and direct disciples.

Now they have all stepped into the True God Realm, and when joining forces to form formations, their strength is astounding, they have clearly become leaders among nearby comparable star systems.

However, the gods of the Emperor’s Palace remembered Fang Bai’s advice to act low-key and did not let their strength increase get to their heads.

Furthermore, according to Fang Bai’s instructions before he left, they recruited numerous capable and virtuous strong figures from the Divine Realm to join the Emperor’s Palace, expanding the overall strength of the Palace.

Fang Bai had once told them, "In the future, establish the Emperor’s Palace within the Divine Realm and strive to make it the top force in the realm."

Although Fang Bai is no longer physically with them, they are contributing their efforts to achieve the goal of establishing the Emperor’s Palace in the Divine Realm.

"Everyone, good news has arrived! I’ve heard that a large divine crystal vein has appeared on Qiyun Star, possibly containing over a hundred million orange divine crystals. We must not miss this!"

On this day, while the gods of the Emperor’s Palace were in Vulcan Star’s Starlord Hall discussing, Fat Taoist Wu De returned from outside and announced excitedly.

Wu De has never been able to sit still; according to him, he was born to a life of toil, destined to give all he has for the Emperor’s Palace until his dying breath.

Ever since Fang Bai departed and the gods of the Emperor’s Palace settled on Vermilion Phoenix Star, the other palace’s strong figures focused on cultivation, while only Wu De traveled far and wide, exploring the starry sky in the name of gathering more cultivation resources for the Palace.

In reality, although his actions indeed brought many cultivation resources back to the Emperor’s Palace, his personal gain was also a primary motivation.

With his dual attribute innate spiritual root, his sensitivity to cultivation resources is second only to Fang Bai, and over the years he has indeed found some good stuff, but the best he kept for himself while the rest he put into the Palace’s underground treasury.

Other strong figures of the Emperor’s Palace are well aware of Wu De’s nature and naturally have little to say about it since leaving a portion of what he finds for the Palace is already commendable, not worth reproaching.

"Old Taoist Wu, are you certain?"

Upon hearing about a divine crystal vein storing over a hundred million crystals, the gods of the Emperor’s Palace had their eyes lit up, and Lightning Mink jumped out and asked.

Wu De responded, "Of course! Right now, many strong figures from Vermilion Phoenix Star are heading to Qiyun Star!"

Lightning Mink rubbed its fists, saying, "How can such a good opportunity be missed by us Emperor’s Palace gods? Let’s go join the fun!"

Wu De shook his head, saying, "Qiyun Star is only the main star of the Hundred Star System; its Starlord is merely at the mid-level of True God Realm. Three to five of us together are enough to handle this! Going in large numbers would be overkill—a waste of resources!"

Pausing for a moment, he pointed to Lightning Mink, Ghost Hand, Lin Rou, Niu Ben, Xiong Yingxiong, and Lu Dong, saying, "We’ll go together!"

These few are Fang Bai’s direct disciples, and Ghost Hand and Lin Rou are a pair of Taoist partners.

Wu De chose to bring them because they knew each other well, having a good relationship and coordinating smoothly, allowing them to unleash greater power even when joining forces to form formations.

"In case things don’t go as planned, don’t force it; safety first!"

"If danger arises, remember to crush the messaging jade token. Once we receive the signal, we’ll come to support immediately on a starship!"

"Old Taoist Wu, however many Emperor’s Palace strong figures you bring, make sure to bring back the same number!"

"Don’t act recklessly in any situation!"

...

Baihua, Linglong, and other gods of the Emperor’s Palace reminded Wu De, Ghost Hand, and others who were preparing to set out.

Wu De waved his hand nonchalantly, saying, "Don’t worry! With Taoist Master here, nothing will happen!"

With these words, he swept his hand, leading Ghost Hand and several Emperor’s Palace strong figures away from Vermilion Phoenix Star, boarding a small starship heading for Qiyun Star.

Upon their arrival at Qiyun Star, this originally non-prominent star had already been flooded by over a million strong figures from various Divine Realm races.

All of these strong figures, like Wu De, had heard of the emergence of a large divine crystal vein on Qiyun Star and hurried to come.

"This seems a bit off compared to what you said!"

Ghost Hand frowned, watching one strong figure after another fly past, and whispered to Wu De.

Previously, Wu De mentioned the strongest on Qiyun Star being only at the mid-level of the True God Realm, but now Ghost Hand found there were quite a few strong figures at the high-level True God Realm.

With their strength, joining forces to form formations could deal with a high-level True God Realm strong figure, but they wouldn’t have much energy remaining for competing over the divine crystal vein.

"Had we known, we would’ve brought more strong figures!"

Niu Ben scratched his head and said clumsily.

Wu De rolled his eyes, saying, "You’re not scared, are you?"

Xiong Yingxiong murmured, "Scared of what? We’ll fight whatever comes! Anyone who dares to compete with us will face our all-out fight! The gods of the Emperor’s Palace fear no strong figures!"

Wu De gave a thumbs-up, saying, "Hero is Hero! Hearing this makes the Taoist Master’s blood boil! Right, as Emperor’s Palace strong figures, who do we fear? Whoever dares to compete for the divine crystals with us, no need for words—we just fight!"

"Fight!"

Niu Ben and Xiong Yingxiong said simultaneously.

In contrast, Ghost Hand was much calmer. Not falling for Wu De’s provocation, he glared at Wu De and said solemnly, "Fight for what? We need to think more before acting—if we rush in without caution, we might mess things up!"

He glared again at Niu Ben and Xiong Yingxiong, saying sharply, "You two forget what the master told you when he left? Need me to repeat it?"

Though Niu Ben and Xiong Yingxiong have innate spiritual roots and good qualifications, their minds are rather straightforward, lacking consideration in their actions, hence Fang Bai’s specific instruction that they should listen to Ghost Hand in all matters.
