Terran Guardian - Chapter 4054

Chapter 4029: Cooperation

Shen Changqing took out a jade box, carefully picked the Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass, and then placed it inside, sealing it securely.

According to the nine-leaf theory,

the storage of the Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass requires considerable skill.

Metal damages its spirit!

Wood damages its roots!

Storing it in a jade box maximizes the preservation of the Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass’s efficacy.

“The opportunities in the Chaotic Land are considerable!”

Shen Changqing thought with satisfaction.

He himself couldn’t use the Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass, but that didn’t mean others couldn’t.

Shen Changqing hadn’t forgotten that the Seven Profound Dao Sect currently had a reincarnated Dao Venerable. With this Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass, there was hope that Ji Yang’s strength would greatly increase.

When the Great Tribulation arrived, the Seven Profound Dao Sect might even produce a top-tier expert.

As for waiting for the Netherworld Grass to grow to seven leaves before harvesting it, Shen Changqing had no such intention.

Time waits for no one!

Such a rare treasure would take countless years to mature.

He also didn’t know how long the Chaotic Land could last.

Therefore…

He simply needed to collect all the rare and precious materials; maximizing profits was insignificant.

Shen Changqing knew very well that he would likely never have another chance to enter this chaotic land. He was confident

he could break through to the Half-Saint realm by the next Great Tribulation.

To enter the Chaotic Land, he first needed to enter the Crimson Jade Dao Palace.

However, cultivators above the Immortal Emperor realm were suppressed by the Dao Venerable’s rules, making it difficult for them to even take a single step.

By the time the Crimson Jade Dao Palace opened again, he would have already broken through to the Half-Saint realm. Shen Changqing was confident in

this . After taking the Six-Leaf Netherworld Grass, Shen Changqing glanced at the Ascension Ranking and his brows furrowed slightly. “Luo Xinghe?” Luo Xinghe, who had previously been in the top five, had now jumped to first place. His acquired Creation Profound Secrets had surpassed 7,200 strands, far exceeding Shen Changqing’s original 6,700 strands, firmly securing his first position. As for Shen Changqing himself, he had fallen to second place. Then… Shen Changqing glanced at the other ranks on the Ascension Ranking again, noticing that the names on the list were changing almost constantly. Some cultivators’ names turned gray, some rose in the rankings, and some fell out of existence. He left the deep valley. Half a day later, Shen Changqing stopped. A familiar figure appeared before him. “Amitabha, Sword Master Shen, we meet again!” “Fellow Daoist Baochan!” Shen Changqing nodded slightly. Baochan smiled faintly: “Outside the Land of Chaos, this humble monk once wished to join forces with Sword Master Shen, but at that time, Sword Master Shen did not give an answer . I wonder if Sword Master Shen has any thoughts now?” Hearing this , Shen Changqing did not answer directly, but instead asked, “I heard that Fellow Daoist Baochan has entered the Land of Chaos for the second time?” “That’s right!” Baochan nodded. “In the last battle in the Chaotic Lands, our side suffered heavy losses. An extraordinary genius emerged from the outer realms, whose strength and methods were heaven-defying, almost sweeping across the entire Chaotic Lands. Of the many geniuses who were among the top ten on the Immortal Emperor’s Stele at the time, no less than half perished at his hands. Even the number one on the Immortal Emperor’s Stele at the time fell to him!” At this point, Bao Chan’s expression became much more solemn. Clearly, the battle in the Chaotic Lands back then was something he could never forget. Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing raised an eyebrow: “Who was that person?” “The Holy Son of the Boundless Divine Palace, Yuheng Immortal. If nothing unexpected happens, that person should already be at the Half-Saint Realm, and did not enter the Chaotic Lands this time. Otherwise, looking at the entire Chaotic Lands, perhaps only Sword Master Shen could contend with him!” Bao Chan’s expression was serious. He had witnessed Shen Changqing’s strength, and in his opinion, the other party should be able to contend with Yuheng Immortal. Of course, this refers to Yuheng Immortal nine ancient immortal eras ago. As for now, it’s hard to say. Even if Yuheng Immortal hadn’t truly broken through to the Half-Saint realm, his strength would undoubtedly be even more unfathomable. If the other party did break through to the Half-Saint realm, then there would be no hope whatsoever. After all— the gap in realm between geniuses is difficult to bridge. While geniuses of the same realm can contend without defeat, if one breaks through first, it’s a dimensional attack. “Yuheng Immortal!” Shen Changqing memorized this name; he had naturally heard of the Boundless Divine Palace. Among the many forces in the outer realms, the Boundless Divine Palace was at the top level. Geniuses from such forces were naturally extraordinary. However, Shen Changqing didn’t pay much attention to Bao Chan’s words. Whether there was a gap between them would only be clear after they fought. Of course, Shen Changqing wouldn’t arrogantly believe that his strength was enough to sweep everything in the Immortal Emperor realm, with no rivals in either of the two Chaos realms. One Chaos was boundless. Both Chaos were even more vast and limitless. It wasn’t impossible for some top genius to emerge from such Chaos, possessing formidable strength. Thinking of this, Shen Changqing looked at Bao Chan and asked, “What are your plans?” “The name ‘Disorderly Land’ is actually recorded in the Glazed Sacred Land. This Disorderly Land is a space created by the intertwining of two chaotic forces. Ultimately, the Disorderly Land is a battlefield for the two chaotic forces to contend for supremacy. Our presence here, along with the cultivators from other realms, represents our respective chaotic forces in this battle,” Bao Chan said solemnly. “Whichever chaotic cultivator can kill more cultivators from the other side will gain the upper hand in the Disorderly Land, and may even be able to establish its own rules.”

When one side of chaos completely overwhelms the other, it can completely transform the Land of Chaos into a passage, and then launch an invasion.

Since ancient times, the side that is passively defending has never had a good outcome.

If the outer chaos gains the advantage and uses it as a foundation to transform the land into a passage, it will be extremely disadvantageous for us!

Bao Chan’s expression was solemn. Although his memories had been confused after leaving the Land of Chaos, and he could hardly remember that the Immortal City of Longevity was related to the Land of Chaos,

the Glazed Holy Land, as an ancient holy land, had accumulated a foundation that was astonishing. The Glazed Holy Land

also had many records about the Land of Chaos.

As a Buddhist disciple of the Glazed Holy Land, how could Bao Chan not know about the Land of Chaos?

It was precisely because

he knew that he understood the importance of the Land of Chaos.

Seeing that Shen Changqing was still silent, Bao Chan continued, “This is not an exaggeration by this humble monk, but the truth.

In the last battle, the outer realm had a great advantage. If it is allowed to develop, not to mention, there will be half-saints from the outer realm entering the Land of Chaos later.”

Shen Changqing understood what Bao Chan was saying.

Ultimately, this

matter, to put it bluntly, concerned the very survival of the two great Chaos realms.

If the Chaotic Lands became a passage, allowing the outer realms to advance unimpeded, it would be extremely bad news.

Top

-tier experts could destroy the heavens and earth with ease; if such beings were to invade the Chaos, even if the outer realms didn’t gain much of an advantage, their rampage would still be a significant loss to their own Chaos.

“Originally… we might not have had the advantage this time, but with the addition of Sword Master Shen, our strength has greatly increased.

If we can annihilate all the outer realm cultivators here, it will be enough to reverse our previous disadvantage!”

Bao Chan’s eyes burned with determination; he knew Shen Changqing’s strength all too well.

Few of the outer realm’s current openly recognized geniuses could rival him.

Seeing his expression, Shen Changqing finally nodded.

“Since you have invited me, fellow Daoist, I have no reason to refuse!”

Seeing Shen Changqing agree, Bao Chan’s smile broadened considerably. “

This humble monk has already ascertained the whereabouts of many cultivators from the outer realms. With the strength of Sword Master Shen and myself, while we might not be able to sweep through the outer realms, suppressing and killing some of their powerful figures will certainly not be difficult.

Later, we will join forces with other cultivators to launch a siege against the outer realms.

If we can wipe them out in one fell swoop, that would be ideal!”

“Agreed!”

Shen Changqing nodded, agreeing with her.

At this moment,

Bao Chan asked again, “Was Nangong Tu, who is on the Outer Realms Ascension Ranking, killed by Sword Master Shen?”

“Indeed, this person is said to be from the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court.”

“The Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court is quite powerful. In the last battle in the Chaotic Lands, a peerless demon from the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court made a move. Although its strength wasn’t as astonishing as Jade Balance Immortal, it was comparable.

Nangong Tu, as the representative of the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court’s prodigies this time, is definitely not weak. If it were any other cultivator, killing this fiend would certainly not be easy!”

Bao Chan wasn’t too shocked by Shen Changqing’s killing of Nangong Tu. Firstly

, the timing of Nangong Tu’s demise and Shen Changqing’s ranking advancement was too coincidental.

Secondly, Nangong Tu’s strength was considerable; very few cultivators could truly kill such a top genius of the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court.

Although Bao Chan hadn’t fought Nangong Tu himself, he had fought against the previous generation of Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court geniuses and was familiar with their strength.

From searching other outer realm cultivators, he knew that Nangong Tu was the representative powerhouse of the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Court.

Shen Changqing’s ability to kill such a genius demonstrated his formidable strength.

Next,

Bao Chan shared information with Shen Changqing, revealing the locations of the outer realm cultivators he knew, and then joined forces with Shen Changqing to encircle and annihilate them.

Bao Chan could easily kill ordinary outer realm cultivators on his own.

However, any outer realm cultivators he felt uncertain about… These cultivators were at least among the top twenty on the current Ascension Ranking.

Such prodigies either possessed powerful life-saving trump cards, capable of preserving their lives in critical moments, or they had gathered a large number of cultivators, making them difficult for Bao Chan to target alone.

But now things were different.

With Shen Changqing as an ally, Bao Chan was ready to reshuffle her forces.

Targets that were previously difficult to deal with were now included in the encirclement. Shen Changqing, of course, wouldn’t refuse.

He was currently searching for cultivators from other regions on the Ascension Ranking, hoping to plunder more of the mysteries of creation. However, the Chaotic Land was vast and boundless, making it extremely difficult to find such prodigies. Cooperating with Bao Chan would significantly accelerate his collection of mysteries of creation; why not take advantage of such a collaboration? Several days later , somewhere in the Chaotic Land, a force of cultivators was completely annihilated. The ones who carried out the attack were naturally Shen Changqing and Bao Chan.
