Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7632
Chapter 7547: Three Parties Gather
“A special place?”
Gui Liuli’s words immediately piqued the curiosity of Ji Xuanjian and the others.
“Did any of you see anything special while you were searching for treasure?” Ji Xuanjian asked Wan Yao and the others.
The group exchanged glances, then shook their heads blankly, indicating they knew nothing.
Xiang Qin pondered for a moment and said, “We’ve only been here a short time, and we’ve mostly been searching for treasures on the outer perimeter. I think this place might not even be in the outer area, and we currently know nothing about the depths of the ruins.”
“Then it depends on what our Brother Tianming decides—whether he eliminates this team or chooses something unknown,” Ji Xuanjian said, seemingly intrigued.
Within the Upside-Down Tower, opportunities are accompanied by dangers, so no one could be sure what the so-called special place actually contained.
While curious, the group also secretly speculated about the risks involved.
But in fact, Li Tianming knew what they were talking about. The
‘special place’ Gui Liuli spoke of was actually located in the center of the ruins. When Yin Chen discovered the team, he naturally discovered the special place along with its members.
Perhaps this news was worthless to Li Tianming.
But he didn’t seem to intend to refuse the deal.
Li Tianming looked at Gui Liuli, his expression indifferent, and slowly said, “I can spare your Qianfeng Rings, but my teammates are too weak for you. I can’t let you all be at your peak and travel with us.”
“That’s no problem at all.” Gui Liuli nodded and readily agreed.
She understood Li Tianming’s meaning. Although the Nine-Colored Blood Sect members couldn’t defeat Li Tianming, if the two teams stayed together, the Nine-Colored Blood Ghost God at his peak could pose a threat to Wan Yao and the others. If they could take the opportunity to eliminate some of them, it would completely affect Li Tianming’s final score in the Ten Thousand Sects Emperor Battle.
After receiving the reply, Li Tianming nodded and said, “Tell me, what kind of special place is it?”
At this point, Gui Sui and the others knew that Gui Liuli’s decision was unshakeable, so they said no more.
Gui Liuli’s gaze sharpened slightly as she said, “When we split up to explore this ruin, we accidentally found a secret palace deep within it. The palace was magnificent and incredibly luxurious, and most importantly… it was a complete palace!” “
In an ancient interstellar ruin city filled with broken walls and rubble, there’s actually a complete building? The treasures inside are probably extremely well-preserved, far greater than what we ‘scavenged’ in the outer areas.” Ji Xuanjian’s eyes lit up, somewhat surprised.
Such temptation was enormous for any team participating in the Myriad Sects Emperor War, so Wan Yao and the others were immediately excited.
If they could find a way to enter, they could obtain a large number of treasures and increase their scores in the Myriad Sects Emperor War.
“Lead the way, let’s set off now,” Li Tianming said directly.
He displayed the attitude most people expected, accepting the trade of exchanging their participation qualifications for a favor, and not destroying their Qianfeng Rings.
At this moment, Gui Liuli looked towards Ji Xuanjian, then at Li Tianming, and tentatively asked, “Since we’ve reached a deal, my brother’s Cosmic God Origin…”
“No problem, restore his body, but only maintain basic mobility.” Li Tianming waved his hand.
“Take it!” Ji Xuanjian curled his lip and casually tossed the Cosmic God Origin in his hand towards her.
A moment later…
Gui Xiao had also restored his body. He stayed close to Gui Liuli, keeping a respectful distance from Li Tianming, the monster who had made even the Nine-Colored Blood Ghost Gods suffer in terms of physical strength.
Even the Burning Blood couldn’t give him much resistance against Li Tianming; he had already been traumatized.
Gui Liuli and the others weren’t much better off than Gui Xiao. They were all heavily injured and unable to use the Origin Spirit Spring, their bodies remaining semi-transparent as they led the way.
In reality, Li Tianming didn’t really need them to lead the way, since Yin Chen might even know more than them.
But he still agreed!
The reason was that at the same time Gui Liuli admitted defeat, Li Tianming received new information from Yin Chen: another team was also close to finding the special place!
If Li Tianming were to head directly into the depths of the ruins at this crucial moment, his purpose would be too obvious.
Therefore, since the other party had brought up the matter of the special place, Li Tianming decided to play along, using it as a shield for Yin Chen to conceal his existence.
All of this was completely unknown to everyone present.
Gui Xiao walked almost at the front, following beside Gui Liuli. He was utterly puzzled by her decision and whispered, “Sister, why did you tell him this? Judging from his expression, he seems ready to let us go after taking our treasure. There’s no need for him to share this information.”
Gui Liuli glanced at him, seemingly without even speaking, but her voice echoed in the minds of all the Nine-Colored Blood Ghost Gods present:
“Actually, I saw another team in the distance at that special place. The people in that team are stronger than us. If Li Tianming’s people were to clash with that team, we might have a chance to benefit from their conflict…”
Upon hearing this, even Gui Xiao, whose back was to Wan Yao and the others, couldn’t help but widen his eyes slightly. The other three, Gui Sui, Gui Mo, and Gui Qing, who had initially been unconvinced, also changed their expressions.
All these changes were very subtle, completely unnoticed by Ji Xuanjian and the others.
Li Tianming needed them as shields, and they, too, harbored their own ulterior motives; each had their own agenda.
…
Inside the Myriad Sects Battle Hall.
Seeing Li Tianming’s victory, Li Dixiao and the others were utterly shocked!
They witnessed Li Tianming subdue Gui Liuli and the others, even forcing them to yield and provide additional information – it was like a dream!
After all, this was the Nine-Colored Blood Sect, a powerful sect in the entire outer region. Even Gui Xiao, a ninth-tier Divine Seed Realm cultivator, could utterly defeat Xiang Qin, a fourth-tier Divine Seed Realm cultivator, let alone the even more powerful Nine-Colored Blood Ghost Gods like Gui Liuli!
And all of this, Li Tianming had single-handedly turned the tide with his fists and feet!
It wasn’t so much a victory for the model youths, but rather a victory for Li Tianming himself!
Even Li Zhaotang was somewhat incredulous. She looked at Li Dixiao, stunned, and said, “Has he always been this powerful? I really didn’t realize it before!”
“Perhaps…is that so?” Li Dixiao was uncertain, his gaze towards Li Tianming growing increasingly astonished. “It seems his progress over the past two thousand years has been truly remarkable.”
