464 Two People and a Dog in a Team

“The three of them are working together, sealing off any possibility of forcing one's way in from any direction. They don't leave any gaps and don't give us any chance to exploit any loopholes.”

Chen Yiming observed the situation through the array formation.

“The Star Capturing Pavilion is famous among the immortal factions. With the help of the three old immortals and the space-travel portal, they can command many immortal factions to fight in space. It is not good to provoke them.”

Seeing that Chen Yiming was hesitating, the black dog was no longer in a hurry to escape. It wanted to see how this ignorant fellow would dare to snatch its target straight from the tiger's mouth.

The Star Capturing Pavilion was very strong. The black dog did not believe that anyone could really take away the huge rock that represented the space-travel portal from right under their nose. If it was really that simple, others would have already taken it away.

Chen Yiming had wanted to use the space anchor to move through space. Coupled with one of the divine powers he had learned from the treasure vault of the ruler of Heaven Suppressing City, he could take away the huge rock from the center of the formation guarded by the three immortals.

However, seeing that the black dog was still not escaping, he had a flash of inspiration and wanted to get some valuable information from it.

“Fighting in space?”

“Didn't the immortal factions come to help the source ore shops fight against the Infinite Island Group?” Chen Yiming pretended to be surprised and asked casually.

“You look quite strong. You even dare to covet the treasure of the Star Capturing Pavilion. Are you actually so naive?”

The black dog looked at Chen Yiming in disdain and sneered. “The factions from the source ore shops in the abandoned world allowed the three old immortals of the Star Capturing Pavilion to successfully guide the first batch of forces to occupy North Mountain City.”

“When the immortal factions grow stronger in the abandoned world, how can they still be satisfied with only a little source ores? They should be happy enough if the immortal factions don't turn into evil dragons and cause them to suffer a backlash later.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming suddenly understood the plan of the source ore shops.

Not only did the factions behind the source ore shops hide from the outside world to deal with the situation, but they also deliberately lured in the immortal factions from the other galaxies as another form of preparation.

Once the immortal factions really got involved, the profit from the source ores in the abandoned world would be redistributed.

This process would definitely cause a bloodbath. Conflicts could not be avoided.

This way, the pressure on the source ore shops would be reduced indirectly. In the end, it was still unknown who would suffer the greatest losses.

“When the incident at the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop broke out, it seemed like the factions behind the source ore shops retreated immediately. However, they were actually trying to stabilize the situation and did not act rashly!”

Chen Yiming couldn't help but sigh in his heart. To be able to monopolize the source ore masters and the source ores, the factions behind the source ore shops definitely weren't fools and knew what they were doing.

Perhaps it was not that they were unable to put up a resistance, but that there was a better way. For example, they had brought in outsiders from the immortal factions to deal with the commotion caused by the Infinite Island Group.

Imagine what it would be like if the source ore shops successfully hid away from the outside world and waited for the other factions to suffer heavy losses before revealing their powerful foundations.

“If the humans from the blue planet come to the abandoned world, they will also get involved like the immortal factions. Even if I can use the space anchor on the spiritual figure to teleport over to protect them at any time, we won't be able to rest easy.”

On second thought, Chen Yiming felt a headache coming on.

If he was alone, he could naturally come and go as he pleased. However, if he really waited for the day that the human spaceship fleet from the blue planet could build their own cities in the abandoned world, the situation would be different.

At that time, there would be restrictions placed on him, and he would need to consider various factors.

However, if the humans from the blue planet wanted to continue to grow by leaps and bounds, they would not have a chance if they stayed on a planet that was isolated from worldly affairs. On the other hand, participating in the dispute over the source ores would definitely result in a large number of casualties.

Not long after.

The black dog turned around and left.

Chen Yiming gave the black dog some time to escape.

Suddenly, he recalled that most of the large cities in the south mountain range were indirectly controlled by the factions in the Infinite Island Group.

He recalled that the young men and women from the immortal factions in the teahouse had been hurriedly called away by the butlers. Although they did not say what had happened, it must have been something that put pressure on the immortal factions.

“North Mountain City is equivalent to a lone city within the territory of the Infinite Island Group. The current liveliness is only going to be seen for a short period of time. It's impossible for war not to happen at all,”

Chen Yiming said softly as he seriously analyzed the situation.

“As long as this space teleportation portal is controlled by the three old immortals of the Star Capturing Pavilion, the immortal factions can send an endless stream of people to teleport over from afar.”

“On the other hand, the south mountain range is only one small area in the abandoned world. It's very likely that it's at a disadvantage when facing the overall strength of the immortal faction. Furthermore, even outsiders can tell that the factions in the Infinite Island Group are very scattered. The internal cooperation is not very good.”

They had used the excuse of the fake source ores from the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop to cause trouble, and the city ruler of Heaven Suppressing City had forcefully caused the remaining source ore shops to retreat like stray dogs.

After a year, the atmosphere in the various large cities had been very oppressive. From time to time, they would say that they wanted to really start a war, but in the end, there was no true chaos.

“The source ore shops have roped in the immortal factions from other galaxies and then hid from the outside world to watch the tigers fight. If the Infinite Island Group still wants to take the initiative to control the situation like before, they will definitely have to stop the immortal factions from continuing to arrive here.”

At this thought, Chen Yiming felt that he didn't need to be in a hurry to make a move.

The liveliness of North Mountain City would not last long, and the Infinite Island Group would definitely make a move. But if he made a move now, he might become the target of public criticism.

After all, the conflict between the Infinite Island Group and the immortal factions would occur over the huge rock in front of them. No matter who took it, it would attract everyone's attention.

However, if the Infinite Island Group launched a surprise attack and North Mountain City really fell into chaos, he could pretend to be someone from the Infinite Island Group. After obtaining the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal, he could hide it for as long as possible.

At the very least, he had to buy enough time for the humans from the blue planet to successfully teleport to the abandoned world.

Next, Chen Yiming sat cross-legged and waited quietly.

Time passed. The black dog was indeed a special creature who could sneak into the immortal teams. The route it chose through the gaps between the array formation was also very special.

It was separated from the three old immortals of the Star Capturing Pavilion by the array barrier. He could see the three of them from the inside, but they could not see him directly.

The outside side of the array barrier had been specially modified with illusions, and looked just like a wall. Unless one took the initiative to break it, it seemed to completely separate what was inside from what was outside.

Another reason was that the three old immortals had set up heavy defenses around the huge rock. Furthermore, the three of them were personally guarding it.

Of course, they would not easily suspect that there were any problems. They would not constantly try to sense if there were any issues with the array formation. Instead, they would focus half of their attention on their own cultivation and the other half on the huge rock not far away.

Three days passed.

On the surface, North Mountain City was still as lively as ever. More and more people kept coming because of the reputation of the immortal factions, hoping that they could interact with the immortal factions from the other galaxies.

In secret, the people from the immortal factions had already hidden themselves away. They had received news from the source ore shops that the factions from the Infinite Island Group were going to get rid of the immortal factions in their territory.

On this day, Chen Yiming, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked into the sky.

At this moment, the sky outside the North Mountain City was covered by black clouds. The black clouds were rolling over, causing the entire city to panic.

Looking closely, it turned out that the black cloud was carrying an army formed by many species. There were huge snakes with strange horns on their heads, humans with a third eye between their eyebrows, and divine eagles burning with flames…

With the naked eye, one would estimate that there were nearly 100,000 of them. It had to be known that other than some miscellaneous soldiers on the ground, the weakest people who could participate in a war of this level were at least at the star condensation realm.

It was clear that the factions in the Infinite Island Group could no longer tolerate the presence of the immortal factions. They had to eliminate or chase away the immortal factions on this day.

“Buzz!”

An invisible ripple spread out.

North Mountain City was activated, and a square of golden light screen rose from the ground. The golden light shot into the sky and chased away the black clouds above it.

This was a kind of mountain-protecting formation of the immortal factions. It was formed by several independent modules. With sufficient energy, it could withstand the attacks of the gods at the star condensation realm and continuously repair itself.

“You three old immortals from the Star Capturing Pavilion, get out here. You cowards.”

When the black clouds surrounded North Mountain City from all directions, a huge man covered in red scales and carrying a huge axe on his shoulder strode out. He stood in the air and looked down from above.

“Fire Scales Elder!”

At this moment, countless people in the North Mountain City looked up. When they saw the huge man holding a huge axe, their expressions changed drastically, and their eyes bulged, as if they had received a huge fright.

The Fire Scale Elder had the bloodline of the fire dragon, and his fierce reputation was well-known throughout the abandoned world. It was said that he would go crazy every 10 years.

Once he went crazy, he would not care about anyone else. At the same time, as a god at the star evolution realm, his strength was among the top of those in the abandoned world. Therefore, every time he went crazy, it would cause a disaster for the area he was in.

The three old immortals from the Star Capturing Pavilion opened their eyes and spoke calmly.

“What a pity. The fire dragon bloodline flowing through his body is not pure. His descendants can't get rid of the madness either.”

“Even his mixed blood is also very valuable for research. If we capture him, we might be able to mass-produce an army of sacrificial warriors who are not afraid of pain or death.”

“So what if the low-level soldiers are not afraid of death? We might as well draw out his bloodline and refine the impurities to create the blood essence divine pill. It can be a life-saving item at the critical moment.”

They spoke one after another, not taking the Fire Scales Elder seriously at all.

Even if the heavenly immortals were facing off against those at the equivalent level of the star evolution realm, it would be three against one. Furthermore, they also had absolute confidence in themselves and their experience in fighting from their space battles.

“Retreat or die.”

A sword beam tore through the sky and landed. The black clouds nearby were completely obliterated, and the black clouds far away were on the verge of collapse. Then, a green-clothed figure appeared.

His long hair fluttered in the wind, and the sword domain was reflected in his eyes. Wherever his gaze passed, the void was torn apart.

With a shout, the bodies of more than 10 gods at the star condensation realm exploded after turning back into basic particles. This was an irreversible injury, and the inner world in their bodies was completely destroyed.

“With Sword Immortal Cang Qing taking action, it looks like we don't have to worry about anything anymore,”

one of the three old immortals said with a smile.

Sword Immortal Cang Qing was a heavenly immortal. He had dominated many galaxies and left his people behind to look for those who had potential to become immortals. At the same time, he had killed countless factions without them daring to make a single sound.

On the other hand, allowing an immortal from another galaxy to leave behind his people would only emphasize his strength among those of the same level. Otherwise, his nest would have been wiped out long ago.

“What big words.”

The Fire Scales Elder's disdainful voice echoed throughout the area like thunder.

In the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, the star evolution realm was only below the city rulers and was stronger than billions of other creatures. It was impossible to determine who was stronger or weaker just by one's words.

Furthermore, from the information circulating in the outside world, how could anyone know the Fire Scales Elder better than himself? If he was really forced into a corner, everyone and everything would be torn to pieces by him.

Soon, Sword Immortal Cang Qing and the Fire Scales Elder started fighting.

The battle between the two of them instantly turned the sky above North Mountain City into a land of death. The sky changed color, and the void shattered. Boundless light completely drowned out both sides.

In North Mountain City, one could only see the collision of immortal techniques and divine powers when they looked up. It was the clash of natural laws. There was the descent of the sword domain that destroyed everything, the divine fire that turned into a divine furnace that burned through the void, and the figure of the fire dragon that devoured the world…

“100,000 gods traveled on a black cloud to suppress the city?”

“A one-on-one fight between a god and an immortal to determine who is stronger and who is weaker? A fight to the death?”

“The three old immortals from the Star Capturing Pavilion did not take the Fire Scales Elder seriously at all.”

Chen Yiming sat quietly in a gap between the array formation and witnessed the entire battle. The difference in strength between gods was even greater than the difference between gods and mortals.

In front of Sword Immortal Cang Qing, the dozen or so gods at the star condensation realm were like ants that could be killed at will. There was no room for any defense.

It was not that the path of cultivation of immortals was stronger than the path of cultivation of gods. If it was a human immortal, they would still be useless in front of a god at the star evolution realm.

It was just like how when Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai fled from Flying Cloud Planet, Gao Shuai had done everything he could to avoid the powerful elders at the star evolution realm.

No matter how conceited a prodigy was or how confident a genius was, they could not fight someone two levels higher than them.

“However, this is only the beginning.”

Chen Yiming didn't completely relax. The three old immortals from the Star Capturing Pavilion might also be pretending not to care, but were actually on high alert and ready to deal with any accidents.

At the level of deciding the control over a piece of land in the abandoned world, just like the factions from the Infinite Island Group, once they made a move, they would definitely take action one after another. It was impossible for them to cause only a small commotion.

As Chen Yiming's strength and horizons increased, a one-on-one fight between a heavenly immortal and a god at the star evolution realm was no longer a big deal. He even had the ability to participate in it.

Time passed very slowly, and every second was extremely torturous.

A world-destroying aura enveloped the sky above North Mountain City. The formation protecting the entire city was shaking slightly, making one feel on tenterhooks, afraid that the formation would break and destroy the city.

At this moment, to Chen Yiming's surprise, the black dog came over with Gao Shuai.

This dog was indeed a little special. At this juncture, it could actually sneak in quietly under the noses of the three old immortals.

Faced with Chen Yiming's confusion, Gao Shuai briefly explained the process of them getting to know each other.

It turned out that this black dog from another galaxy was like Chen Yiming. It was one of the friends Gao Shuai had been looking for to participate in the fight for the true dragon's corpse.

“Woof, woof!”

The black dog wagged its tail, trying to curry favor with Chen Yiming.

It already knew that among the three of them, Chen Yiming was the strongest.

Previously, when it was bragging about the immortal factions and looking down on Chen Yiming for thinking of stealing the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal away, its tone had been a little rude. It had to make up for it quickly.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming didn't lower himself to the black dog's level.

Since Gao Shuai had taken a fancy to the black dog's special ability, coupled with the fact that it had sneaked itself in twice in a row under the noses of the three immortals, it had already proven itself.

In short, everyone relied on their special abilities to work together for the sake of the true dragon's corpse. There was nothing to be pretentious about.

“The Infinite Island Group will activate the coordinates set for the other side of the space teleportation portal and break through the defense system of the three old immortals of the Star Capturing Pavilion from the inside.”

Soon, Gao Shuai revealed a shocking piece of news.

“Is it a spy hiding among the immortal factions?” Chen Yiming asked doubtfully.

Gao Shuai nodded and said, “The source ore shops and the Infinite Island Group have been fighting for nearly a year. The factions behind the source ore shops want to use the immortal factions from the other galaxies to muddy the waters, but the Infinite Island Group is not so easy to deal with.”

“There's a high chance that the divine god from the Infinite Island Group at the star evolution realm planned this pincer attack. Perhaps they are also targeting the huge rock forming the space teleportation portal.”

Chen Yiming narrowed his eyes.

He had long understood that the value of different types of space teleportation portals was often worlds apart.

For example, before the development of the technological civilization in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, a teleportation portal commonly known as the ancient path to outer space could allow one to cross a long distance in space.

However, there were many restrictions on this kind of teleportation portal. First, it had to be set up along the wormholes in the universe and in the direction of the space tunnel.

In other words, they could use the power of the wormhole to artificially create a much smaller space-travel passage in the same direction to avoid any uncontrollable accidents in the natural wormhole.

The huge rock that the three old immortals were guarding had a completely different value. Whoever controlled this special rock would be able to easily let their faction cover the distance between the stars.

The Star Capturing Pavilion was one of the top factions among the immortal factions in the galaxy due to this huge stone that could teleport them through space.

They could also rely on this to order the other immortal factions to gather a powerful force and start a war with other factions of the same level.

At this moment, Gao Shuai reminded him in a low voice, “The three old immortals of the Star Capturing Pavilion will use the power of the huge rock to participate in the fight for the true dragon's corpse in the future.”

“Among the factions in space, there are still many who are coveting this huge rock. You have to think carefully. To an individual who has mastered spatial abilities, it will not be of much use to you.”

Chen Yiming naturally knew what Gao Shuai was referring to.

If he successfully stole the huge rock in front of him, a large number of enemies from the other galaxies would come after him. At that time, even if the human spaceship fleet from the blue planet successfully arrived in the abandoned world, they would not be able to live peacefully.

However, Gao Shuai did not know that with his special connection with the spiritual figure, he could teleport back at any time to deal with the enemies who wanted to attack his base.

In the long term, this huge stone forming the space teleportation portal was undoubtedly very useful to the humans from the blue planet. First of all, it could establish a connection with the blue planet.

When the black dog heard their conversation, it suddenly felt a little regretful. It felt that it had been tricked by Gao Shuai and joined them in the spur of the moment.

Its ability was mainly targeted at the array formation, but who were these two people in front of it? They were both much more powerful than it was.

Once there was a mistake in their plans, the one with the least ability to escape would be in the greatest danger.
