After discussing some matters again, the meeting ended, and Te Leisi and the other two took their leave.
"Jing Yi, I will go with Elder You to Yunpiao Sect's base. Inform the five elders to have Senior Wei Yilong stationed at Dan Island, while the other four elders should go to America, Liga Continent, and Aoli Country. Have another elder check out the ice plain continent, which we've always overlooked."
While speaking, Jiang Chen glanced at Long Tianze and A'erfa: "Also, during the patrols, don't forget the ocean. Elder Long, Senior A'erfa, same goes for you, conduct a thorough check!"
"Understood!"
Ye Jingyi and the others nodded.
Long Tianze asked with some confusion, "Young Master, are there really treasures like those found in the suburban caverns?"
"Of course, not the same item. There's only one like that in the world. As for other things…"
Jiang Chen hesitated, glanced around, and concentrated his thoughts.
Buzz buzz buzz!
A mysterious aura emerged, the aura of the Spatial Path filled the conference room.
Everyone was slightly stunned, their expressions suddenly becoming solemn.
"Everyone remembers I mentioned the formation of Chixiao Sect, right? That formation requires certain items. Lord Ancestral Dragon feared that malicious individuals would discover and sabotage the formation, so he placed items to activate it into several secret realms."
Jiang Chen spoke softly: "Activating the formation requires ten items in total, one being my Martial Soul's power, and the other eight should be hidden in eight secret realms. Missing any one item means the formation can't be activated, leaving us with no final safeguard. Thus, we must obtain those eight items!"
"So, there are still eight secret realms on Yuan Star? That's quite a lot!" Yè Yùwǎn said, frowning.
"Not necessarily! There might be more, but at least eight!"
Jiang Chen shook his head slightly, then said firmly, "In any case, no matter how many there are, we must not let them fall into the hands of the people from the Void Nether Realm."
"Understood!"
"Yes, absolutely not into their hands!"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
…
Yunpiao Sect's base.
Since the arrival of the intruders through the previous channel, Flame Dragon had implemented strict defenses, far exceeding the minimum configuration Jiang Chen had suggested, doubling it directly. Flame Dragon had thirteen channels, each guarded by two Saint Realm Peak experts and ten late-stage Saint Realm experts.
Long Tianze did not include the experts on Yichen Island in the report during the meeting, as Jiang Chen concealed their numbers.
The purpose of this was to have a surprise force in case the enemy's eight Divine Infant Realm experts were to probe their expert data.
The personnel in charge of guarding Yunpiao Sect's base was Ming Que and the Supreme Emperor.
After a month of cultivation, both had become one Saint Realm Peak expert and one Semi Divine Infant expert. Such an army would not be easily defeated by a Divine Infant Realm early-stage expert as before!
Swish swish!
Two figures descended from the sky, landing directly at the entrance of the channel.
"Mr. Jiang, Elder You!"
The Supreme Emperor and Ming Que at the entrance had already detected the deliberately emitted aura by the two in the sky and greeted them with smiles.
"Senior Supreme Emperor, Senior Ming Que, next you'll need to form a battle array for defense. Elder You and I will venture inside. If strong enemies are drawn out, we'll need your assistance in combat!"
Jiang Chen spoke gravely.
"Understood!"
The Supreme Emperor and Ming Que tightened their expressions, nodding emphatically.
"No need to be overly tense. I've already sent word. Shortly, Clan Leader You Bitong will bring thirty late-stage Saint Realm experts from the Shadow Clan to help you from cover."
Jiang Chen said softly.
"That many experts?!"
Ming Que exclaimed delightfully.
"Of course, they're our trump card, and also a mobile force!"
Jiang Chen chuckled lightly and nodded.
Ming Que was slightly startled, showing a hint of a smile.
In the defense arrangement after the meeting, Ming Que noticed something was amiss, as nearly all late-stage and peak Saint Realm experts were stationed at the entrance and Dan Island, leaving the response to unexpected situations inadvisable. Learning there's a mobile unit eased his mind considerably.
"We're going in first!"
With a light command, Jiang Chen led You Xuan into the channel.
Ming Que and the Supreme Emperor watched the entrance with solemn faces, a trace of worry in their eyes.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Upon entering the channel, Jiang Chen unleashed his Soul Force, carefully sensing the power of the Great Dao within the channel.
"The power of the Great Dao within this channel is exceptionally stable, seeming equivalent to the spatial stability of Yuan Star."
Jiang Chen spoke softly.
"Looks like the channel is about to stabilize completely. The battle is truly approaching!"
You Xuan nodded slightly, concern showing.
"Let's proceed further, and see what those Void Nether Realm folks are up to!"
Jiang Chen signaled, swiftly moving forward.
Swish swish!
The two of them hurriedly moved forward, stopping suddenly after advancing ninety miles.
"Soul exploration is impossible beyond ten miles?!"
You Xuan asked in surprise, "Over there... seems isolated by Spatial Path!"
"Yes, that's the spatial overlap region I mentioned before, totaling over a hundred miles. Without this region, our connection with the Void Nether Realm wouldn't exist!"
Jiang Chen nodded solemnly.
"Can't it be destroyed?"
You Xuan looked at Jiang Chen expectantly.
"I'll give it a try. Couldn't destroy it last time; let's see if enlightenment of the Spatial Path helps now!"
Jiang Chen spoke with gravity, gradually advancing, always on guard for potential assaults.
The two cautiously approached the initial location of the spatial overlap.
Roar!
A dragon's roar sounded, Jiang Chen halted, summoning the True Dragon Martial Spirit.
Buzz buzz buzz!
A breath of ancient Spatial Path aura emanated, Jiang Chen attempted to destroy the spatial overlap using the True Dragon Martial Spirit's Spatial Path aura combined with his own understanding.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The space trembled, slowly beginning to fold.
Fold, fold, three folds…
The space folded to nine layers, unable to fold further. The space, after folding, did not collapse but twisted to the utmost.
"It's impossible, can't be destroyed!"
Jiang Chen shook his head in disappointment, retracting the True Dragon Martial Spirit.
Upon hearing, You Xuan's gaze showed a hint of disappointment, quickly turning into a resolute expression: "Since battle is inevitable, then fight!"
Jiang Chen nodded heavily, his demeanor turning serious, continuing to advance.
