To Be Celestial's Emperor II
18/30
“Protector Zhen, have you forgotten the hall of Law? They have a vast intelligence network. Using the token I will definitely commemorate the law hall. I'm afraid they'll make trouble there”
“It's okay, I'm not afraid if the law hall makes trouble. The most important problem of Desert Bandit plains can be finished first”

Zhen Yuan asked the Demon Emperor to send Ms. Seven's token to Zheng Choi while she had prepared to leave together with the Little Lion to save Chu Xingtian.
“Are you sure you don't want to take Miss Seven, Wang Jian and Ling Huier?”
“Little Lion, are you now so weak that you need help from others?”
“Hmph! I just asked, that's all. Moreover we do not know what the chairman of the law hall prepared so as to capture Chu Xingtian and the other masters”
Both of them moved carefully as they headed towards the huge transportation formation that was at the center of the island. Zhen Yuan sent out their destination location and the next second the formation light lit up and transported the two.
Inside Chu Xingtian's mission scroll, he along with the 9 alchemy masters headed for a remote island that was under the rule of the Heaven Group. Being a remote island, no one who was there even the original pendudik there had long disappeared.
Only when the group of heaven sent out a core elder and made him the ruler of the island and built up the power there made him accepted by the main island and categorized as an island.
If it was just an ordinary plain or an abandoned island perhaps the Heaven Group would not have set its sights on it. The only reason why the third strongest island in the wasted archipelago was willing to spend some resources to build strength on the remote island because of the benefits they would receive in the future.
“It is only natural that the island of Heaven Group insists on having an island. This is because the soil and energy here is very suitable to be used as a place to cultivate herbs! Even the growth speed of the herbs would increase by 60% if planted well here” When they arrived there, Zhen Yuan could immediately feel the uniqueness of the island.
The Little Lion nodded small yet was not as spirited as Zhen Yuan. He urged Zhen Yuan to move quickly as the young man had promised to help him obtain the source of soul energy to absorb.
Zhen Yuan and the Little Lion moved heartily towards the place where the tunnel was located. As they had expected earlier, the tunnel was guarded by many True Sage to Wise cultivators of layer five. There were at least a dozen fifth layer cultivators surrounding the tunnel. Meanwhile as the two released their spiritual energy, a thin figure who was sitting meditating on a stone opened his eyes. He stopped his meditation when he felt a few small ripples around. It seemed that Zhen Yuan and the Little Lion were a little careless this time around.
It was only when the thin figure expanded its strength to examine closer to some ripples that the two came to a realization and immediately withdrew their spiritual energy. Zhen Yuan decided to leave there first and re-planned according to the circumstances.
Although it had only been a while checking, both of them had gained a lot. One of them is that the cave or tunnel is still relatively new and is not formed because of nature besides that there are many 5th class formations at the entrance of the tunnel.
“They must have made the cave to trap Chu Xingtian's group. And to save Chu Xingtian the only way is to enter that tunnel as well and prepare for whatever is waiting for us behind the formation.” Little Lion gave his opinion.
The two also thought about the skinny figure that had detected them, it was clear that there was a powerful formation master in front of the tunnel to guard.
“The strength of the Heaven Group is very strong, even one of their halls has many capable people” Zhen Yuan cannot help but admire the power of the law hall. It's just that he regretted that such power was only used for evil things.
Finally after a day of preparation, Zhen Yuan and the Little Lion appeared near the tunnel. The two deliberately set the detection formation set on fire and the group guarding there was immediately notified.
Zhen Yuan prepared as four third layer cultivators came and attacked the two. Facing those four cultivators, Zhen Yuan played twenty fire and water tendrils to hold them back, each of them being snared by five extremely strong tendrils.
The four cultivators took out their weapons and used the great techniques they had to escape from the lotus tendrils. Unfortunately the lotus tendrils had evolved to a higher level, even a fifth layer cultivator would need time to destroy the lotus tendrils.
As a result the four cultivators got entangled and began to be absorbed greedily by the lotus tendrils. The good thing was that the four left behind a soul imprint that the Little Lion could refine.
“Very good, it doesn't seem to take long for me to break through the realm of Wise as well” The little lion is very happy to see those four soul imprints increase his strength. Although it only increased a little but it has treated his frustration.
“Master the existing formation must have realized what happened, we must move faster!” Zhen Yuan and the Little Lion released a teleportation formation and then they moved elsewhere.
