Jin Gang and the leader of the Blood Fox left without hesitation. They didn't even care about their original purpose of coming to Wasteland.
Their departure resonated with some other cultivators. They also said goodbye to each other and left. They gave up on subduing the Kalpa Thunder Spirit Tree.
They already knew what was going on. Not to mention the Alien Race's sneak attack, this Wasteland was the closest to the Gu Yuan Tribe. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the Gu Yuan Tribe had a Heaven-level battleship. Even Zun cultivators would die there.
They didn't dare steal food from the tiger's mouth. Even if they found the Kalpa Thunder Spirit Tree again, they wouldn't dare attack the battleship. If they stayed, they would be helping the Gu Yuan Tribe. They wouldn't get anything, and they would offend the new great force.
Of course, there were also some cultivators who did not indicate whether they were leaving or not. They were somewhat ambiguous. These were all wanderers who were conquering the Great Desolate alone. They sought riches and honor amidst danger, seeking survival amidst death. To them, this was nothing.
"Leader Xiao, Tiantai greets you. We will repay you in the future!"
Tiantai Xuan's eyes flickered gently, looking otherworldly. She did not reveal her sharpness because of the bloody battles. Instead, she bowed to Xiao Chen, looking at him with curiosity in her eyes.
She was thanking Xiao Chen for saving her life. If not for the Void Warship of the Ancient Yuan Tribe, she might have really died today. The scarier thing was that she would have been captured by the Wind Spirit Clan's Feng Tianming. That would have been a fate worse than death, and she would have suffered all sorts of humiliation.
Feng Tianming had died, which was a great thing for the Tiantai Battle Department. The top rank battle department was suppressing the Alien Race's spaceship. The Alien Race's spaceship was as strong as the top rank battle department's. A Zun cultivator of the fifth sky of the Heavenly Building Stage had died. It was a great loss for the Wind Spirit Clan.
"Goodbye, the Tiantai Battle Department will give up on the Kalpa Thunder Spirit Tree!"
Tiantai Xuan jumped up into the sky like a celestial being. The seven-colored Cyan Luan screeched and landed on the Cyan Luan's back. Very quickly, they pierced through the clouds.
"Clan Leader Xiao, farewell!"
Some warriors came forward one after another and bowed to Xiao Chen. They understood that after today, the Gu Yuan Tribe's name would truly spread throughout the Great Wilderness and become one of the few great military tribes in the Desolate Border Region.
When they looked at Xiao Chen, their eyes were filled with awe. He was a cultivator whose Spiritual Will had reached the Venerable Realm. His future achievements would be limitless. Moreover, his bone age was less than thirty, which was even more terrifying than Tiantai Xuan's talent.
Half an hour later.
Xiao Chen was already in the void battleship. At this moment, the battleship was still lingering near the original valley. The remaining cultivators had already left.
At this moment, there was a three-zhang cauldron in front of Xiao Chen. Raging flames rose from the bottom of the cauldron. Mid-grade Primordial Stones were used as the fuel for the fire, which was constantly burning the medicinal herbs in the cauldron.
This time, he had been seriously injured. His whole body's Battle Bones were broken. He didn't have any healing pills with him, so he couldn't refine pills. He could only use a medicinal bath to treat his injuries.
The cauldron was emitting a rich medicinal fragrance. Every medicinal herb in it was at least a thousand years old. The white Primordial Stone Fire was burning, but there was no steam coming out of the cauldron. There was only a medicinal soup that was getting thicker and thicker.
When the medicinal bath in the cauldron turned into a thick milky white color, Xiao Chen stepped into it without hesitation. He concentrated and started to treat his injuries.
He felt the dull pain coming from all parts of his body. He had suffered a blow from a Venerable. Then, he had killed a Wind Spirit cultivator. After his Battle Bones were broken, he had transformed into the Golden Battle Body and unleashed his strongest attack. At this moment, his body had already dried up. His flesh had lost its luster, and his originally golden Battle Bones were dim and dull.
The void battleship had appeared out of nowhere and killed the Ghost Venerable. This had shocked all the cultivators present. Now that the Baize Marquis' Division's Venerable had left, the remaining cultivators had mostly given up on looking for the Thunder Calamity Spiritual Wood and left. Therefore, Xiao Chen didn't order them to return to the division. Instead, he ordered the void battleship to look for the Thunder Calamity Spiritual Wood.
The milky white medicinal soup was crystal clear and emitted a rich medicinal fragrance. Xiao Chen submerged his whole body into the cauldron. The vast and endless medicinal power immediately surged into his body as if it had found a breakthrough point.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the impact of the violent medicinal power, Xiao Chen moved the Blood Qi in his body and spread the medicinal power to every corner of his body.
His Battle Bones were broken, his flesh was damaged, and even his lungs were injured. Xiao Chen understood that he had overestimated himself this time.
Originally, he thought that by relying on his ability to fight above his cultivation level, and having cultivated the Golden Battle Body to the fifth level, coupled with the Spiritual Will of the Sixth Level of the Heavenly Building Realm, he thought that even if he couldn't defeat a Venerable, he would be able to escape unscathed. However, facing the blow from the Ghost Venerable, he had already been completely suppressed.
This was the pressure from above the martial arts realm. Even if he had infinite combat power, it was difficult for him to use it. At this level, the gap between each realm would become bigger and bigger.
The medicinal power was constantly being devoured. The pure medicinal power circulated to every part of his body through the twelve Heaven Veins. It turned into fine needles that were as thin as a cow's hair. They pierced into the depths of his flesh and bones, constantly repairing his torn blood and bones.
Xiao Chen's shaken internal organs slowly stabilized. His slightly dried up blood and flesh absorbed the huge amount of medicinal power and gradually released a radiance. The ghost flame released by the Scarlet Flame Ghost Lord was a Yin cold flame. It was incomparably sinister and pervasive. Some of it had already seeped into the depths of his blood and bones.
This Yin cold power made him feel a little mysterious. It seemed to be mixed with a trace of an unknown concept. It seemed to be the fusion of the cold intent and the will of death, but there were other attributes mixed in.
Xiao Chen tried to capture a trace of the cold intent. This cold intent contained a thick aura of death. The aura of death and the cold intent intertwined and perfectly fused together, bursting out with a power that was several times stronger.
His Battle Bones were tempered again. His flesh and blood were emitting vitality. The original Yin cold aura of death was completely eliminated. The cracks on his Battle Bones were repaired. The Battle Bones that were broken by the power were restored to their original state, glowing with a golden brilliance.
For five days in a row, Xiao Chen didn't move at all. The raging flames under the cauldron gradually extinguished. The originally milky white medicinal soup also became clearly visible.
Suddenly, above his body, a bright red blood aura rushed out. This blood aura was mixed with a layer of golden brilliance, emitting an invisible majesty.
This time, all the Golden Battle Bones in his body had been shattered. It could be said that it was equivalent to being reforged. His Battle Bones were even stronger than before. At this moment, it was still the Golden Battle Body of the fifth realm, but Xiao Chen could feel that his physical body had become even stronger.
Peng!
The entire medicinal cauldron suddenly exploded. An astonishing blood aura emerged from the battleship. The blood aura shot up from the top of Xiao Chen's head and turned into a blood dragon. It was as thick as a water bucket as it soared into the sky.
Then, the blood dragon dissipated, and Xiao Chen's figure appeared. At this moment, the Yin cold aura that Scarlet Flame Ghost Venerable had left in his body had been completely eliminated. The Golden Battle Bones had been reforged, and his dried flesh and blood had become plump. His exposed body even emitted a faint golden brilliance.
"Greetings, Patriarch!"
On the deck of the Void Battleship, Xiao Chen pushed open the door and walked out. Shi Ya, Xuesha, and the others were already bowing and waiting for him. When the blood dragon smoke appeared, they already knew that Xiao Chen's closed-door healing had ended.
"After a few days of closed-door training, did you discover anything?"
"Reporting to Patriarch, most of the warriors have already left. Only a few wanderers are still in the depths of the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range. However, they have not come into contact with our Gu Yuan Tribe. When they see us from afar, they will quickly leave."
After listening to Xuesha's words, Xiao Chen understood that these wanderers who had not left were still eyeing the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood. However, they would probably be disappointed this time. His Gu Yuan Tribe was determined to get the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood, and they were not afraid of others coveting it.
Baize Marquis's troops had already given up on the fight for the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood. Xiao Chen did not care about these wanderers at all. As long as they stayed within the territory of the Gu Yuan Tribe and did not cause any trouble, he would let them go.
Void Battleship!
The third Void Battleship had appeared in the Desolate Border Territory. It had even killed a veteran Venerable Ghost Venerable in one battle and destroyed the conspiracy of the alien race!
During the few days that Xiao Chen had been recovering, the Gu Yuan Tribe had once again shaken the Desolate Border Territory.
Not only that, but this time, even Xiao Chen had been found. His bone age was less than 30 years old, but he actually had peerless battle power below the Venerable Realm. His Spiritual Will had even advanced to the Venerable Realm in advance. As long as his Battle Qi and physical body were perfected and his essence, qi, and spirit were perfectly integrated, he would be able to pass the Heavenly Fire Tribulation and become a Venerable Realm.
"Patriarch, I have completely investigated the land within a radius of 100,000 miles in the past few days, but I did not find any trace of the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood. I am afraid that the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood has moved deeper into the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range. However, if it goes deeper, it will be the territory of the Four-star fierce beasts. Therefore, I have been waiting for the patriarch to come out of closed-door training before making a decision."
Rumble!
The battleship soared through the sky, and its huge momentum caused the entire forest to become silent. The battleship that was hundreds of meters long dispersed the thick clouds, like a black bolt of lightning streaking across the void. The air was torn apart, and shocking airwaves were set off.
The dense clouds were torn apart, and a golden sun hung in the sky. Thousands of rays of sunlight sprinkled down, penetrating the torn clouds and shining on the ground. Under Xiao Chen's orders, the void battleship had already entered deeper into the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range. There were already a few Four-star fierce beasts there.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was also thinking of retreating. If there was no trace of the Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Wood within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, he could only order the battleship to return to the combat division.
After all, this was the world of the Four-star fierce beasts. Even the void battleship did not dare to be careless. If the old monsters appeared, even the void battleship would be destroyed.
Three days later.
An earth-shattering thunder rumbled, and a bolt of silver lightning streaked across the sky. From the void battleship, one could see that a hundred miles ahead was covered in thunderclouds, and the silver lightning was like a dragon. Every thunderclap shook the void. Even at their level, they were still shocked. This was the power of heaven.
In the center of the sky full of thunderbolts, there was an ancient purple-gold tree that kept swaying. The rolling thunder did not turn it into scorched earth, but was instead absorbed by it. The branches and leaves of the tree shone with an increasingly purple light, and the spiritual leaves were like real ancient beasts, roaring in the thunder and lightning.
