Chapter 7770: Setting a Trap

A vast amount of divine ore was piled up together, like a black ocean surrounding the Myriad Realms Ruins.

Unlike the Heavenly Treasure Province, these divine ore deposits were almost monolithic.

This distribution of divine ore would result in a more stable structure, making it less prone to collapse.

This was good news for Xiao Jiu, who could now eat to her heart’s content.

At this moment, Li Tianming was leading Wei Shengmo Ran, stealthily making their way towards the Myriad Realms Divine Ore Deposits.

The entire process was silent and undetectable.

On the way, Wei Shengmo Ran said with slight worry, “The group around Inspector Han already suspected us of stealing divine ore deposits. Now we’re continuing to plot against divine ore deposits in the Myriad Realms Eternal Empire. If the Myriad Realms Heavenly Emperor discovers that the divine ore deposits are missing, won’t it be even harder to clear our names?”

“That’s alright. We can create alibis. This will not only not increase suspicion, but will also dilute the previous suspicion. It’s a good thing,” Li Tianming said with a slight smile.

“What are you planning to do?” An Ning suddenly asked.

“It’s simple. Just rely on Ling’er’s Sky-Stabilizing Butterfly. As long as we return to Fengxu and show ourselves at the same time as the incident at the Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Mine, we can prove that the real ‘Divine Treasure Stone Thief’ is someone else. This will also make people suspect that we are not the ones with the ability to steal the Divine Treasure Mine,” Li Tianming said confidently.

“Brilliant! Little Li is always full of clever ideas!” Bai Ling exclaimed in admiration.

“Although you’re praising me, can’t you say something nicer?” Li Tianming said irritably.

Having figured out the plan, the next step was to implement it!

After passing through a large area patrolled by powerful Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Army soldiers, Li Tianming, guided by Yin Chen, led Xiao Jiu to a hollow in the Divine Treasure Mine.

This place was rarely visited, but the hollow was incredibly huge, more than enough for its now-grown body to stretch out.

It was precisely because of the large scale of the Divine Treasure Mine that it could support such a large hollow without collapsing, which was definitely great news for Xiao Jiu.

“This must be a trace left after the Eternal Empire of Myriad Realms mined it. Since it has little value left, there’s basically no one patrolling here anymore, making it a suitable place for us to temporarily settle down,” Aurora said slowly.

Li Tianming looked at Wei Sheng Mo Ran and instructed, “Little Fish, you stay here for now and be ready to use the Boundary Planet at any time. I’m going out to take care of some things. I’ll come back as soon as I’m done, or if anything happens.”

“Okay, be careful yourself, don’t be careless,” Wei Sheng Mo Ran nodded.

After doing all this, Li Tianming left the void and chose to take the initiative!

To complete his series of plans, he not only had to steal the Divine Treasure Stones, but also make a big enough commotion!

Little Nine looked at the Divine Treasure Stones and was already drooling, but it stubbornly held back.

Firstly, it had just said it wouldn’t eat them and was too embarrassed to ask.

Secondly, it knew that Li Tianming was planning everything!

Although Little Nine was greedy, it also knew the importance of eating safely and with peace of mind.

After spending so much time together, it had also understood the benefits of following Li Tianming’s arrangements.

Under the vast cosmic constellations, Li Tianming quietly drifted near the Divine Treasure Mine, slightly away from the location of Wei Sheng Mo Ran.

“Yin Chen, find a suitable target. This time, we not only need to feed Xiao Jiu, but also Xiao Yu, and give the Myriad Realms Heavenly Emperor a little shock!” Li Tianming chuckled.

“Wait a moment,” Yin Chen replied.

Time slowly passed, and Li Tianming waited patiently, not in a hurry at all.

Soon, Yin Chen had roughly gathered some information about the Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Army, which was then supplemented by Aurora.

After a while, Aurora relayed to Li Tianming: “Tianming, Yin Chen has learned about the structure of the Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Army. Their strength, from lowest to highest, is roughly divided into ordinary Divine Treasure Army soldiers, Divine Treasure Army generals, Divine Treasure Army deputy commanders, and the strongest, the Divine Treasure Army Heavenly Marshal.”

“Now, with us attacking with all our might, dealing with a powerhouse with a body four thousand light-years in diameter shouldn’t be too difficult. Which rank of Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Army soldier are we capable of defeating?” Li Tianming asked, his gaze slightly narrowed.

“Among the Divine Treasure Generals, if they aren’t the strongest, we can handle them. There are Divine Treasure Generals patrolling nearby, perfect for us to strike, though there are a few of them,” Aurora said hesitantly.

“What’s there to be afraid of? In my Dark Universe, none of them can get out, none of them can escape. As long as we can beat their leader, the number of their minions doesn’t matter,” Xiao Jiu said disdainfully.

“Since Xiao Jiu is so confident, let’s just do it!” Li Tianming smiled slightly, his eyes burning.

“Follow me, this way!” Yin Chen began to lead the way.

Due to the presence of the Divine Treasure Mine, the area was somewhat dark and eerie.

Following Yin Chen’s guidance, Li Tianming followed a dimly lit path and quickly arrived at a somewhat secluded area within the Myriad Realms Divine Treasure Mine.

“The terrain here is a bit complicated, so a large-scale Divine Treasure Army can’t come here. Therefore, Divine Treasure Generals are specially arranged to patrol with a small number of Divine Treasure Army soldiers at fixed times and locations…” Aurora explained.

For Li Tianming, this was a golden opportunity!

Passing through the path, Li Tianming’s vision suddenly opened up. Below the Guanzizai Realm lay a dark valley, as if splashed with ink.

In the middle of the valley, a group of people were resting, some sitting, some lying down, seemingly quite content.

“General Jin Yi, isn’t it a bit inappropriate for us to stay here for so long?” A slightly immature-looking recruit asked from the group.

“What’s there to be afraid of? We’re on patrol, not deserting our posts. We’re just taking a break because we’re tired from patrolling. It won’t delay our reporting.” A deep voice rang out.

Under the vast cosmic starry sky, Li Tianming looked at the speaker.

He wore a long golden robe, with sharp, slanted eyebrows that swept into his temples, and a clean-cut face. Although he appeared middle-aged, he still possessed an extraordinary handsome appearance.

This golden-robed man lay casually to one side, seemingly lazy, but he was actually observing his surroundings out of the corner of his eye.

“This should be one of the Divine Treasure Generals, named ‘Jin Yi,’ also known as General Jin Yi. His strength is around four thousand light-years. The group of Divine Treasure soldiers around him are around one or two thousand light-years strong, totaling ten people. They don’t pose a threat to us,” Aurora said slowly.

“It’s okay, you guys go deal with the big one, I’ll take down the smaller ones one shot each!” An Ning said excitedly.

“My current cultivation level isn’t that high. I basically rely on Ling’er and Xiao Jiu to fight opponents like these. Can you handle them?” Li Tianming hesitated.

“It’s fine! Just have Xiao Jiu and Ling’er boost my power. I can easily handle opponents with cultivation levels of one or two thousand light-years,” An Ning said casually.
