Chapter 2061 - Movements Exposed
During this time, some other people had returned to the Divine Medicinal Garden one after another. However, all of them suffered horrible fates. They were killed off with the teamwork from the Godkings of the White Cloud sect.
Ever since the Godkings from the White Cloud sect had joined them, Jian Chen and Kai Ya could only display strength they should have possessed as early Godkings, diligently wasting away the formation’s energy. Naturally, the five Godkings from the White Cloud sect who believed that they were more powerful dealt with the cultivators who came into the garden.
“Elder Ying, I feel like there’s something up with Jian Chen and the others,” one of the five Godkings, the weakest female, secretly said to a middle-aged man after killing two waves of cultivators.
Elder Ying was the middle-aged man who had initially spoken to Jian Chen. He was the most powerful person out of all the elders from the White Cloud sect. Not a single late Godking elder of the White Cloud sect was his opponent alone, so he naturally became the backbone of the group.
“Elder Xi, what’s wrong?” Elder Ying asked.
They communicated secretly, so aside from the two of them, even the three other people from the White Cloud sect could not hear what they were saying.
“Don’t you feel that it’s too peaceful? They don’t fear us at all, and even when we killed the Godkings who entered here before, they did not react in the slightest,” elder Xi said as she studied Jian Chen’s group secretly.
“Haha, elder Xi, look at how focused they are at getting through the formation. Just that shows that they’re definitely not as composed as they seem. Their composure is just an act, a reaction from their nerves. Moreover, the four of them are all early Godkings after all, so how great of a mess do you think they can make?” Elder Ying replied without caring too much. He did not take Jian Chen’s group seriously at all.
“But-”
“There are no buts, elder Xi. Do you really lack so much confidence in us? We have four late Godkings and you, a mid Godking. Is that not enough to deal with the people before us,” elder Ying cut off elder Xi rather impatiently.
Elder Xi no longer said anything else. She looked at the four of them from time to time. She just felt that something was off, and she suspected that their composure was not an act. It was like her group really was not on their mind.
However, when she reached this conclusion, even she struggled to believe it. She had already used a secret technique of the White Cloud sect to study the four of them, and they were indeed early Godkings. How could four early Godkings pose any threat to them?
Jian Chen also asked about the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound, but to his disappointment, their sects were just too far apart. As such, their knowledge was extremely limited. Apart from learning that the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound was located in the central region of the Skyfire Plane, he learnt nothing new.
As the formations were destroyed one after another, they collected more and more God Tier heavenly resources. Whenever they collected an extra heavenly resource, the hearts of the five Godkings would beat faster. Their deep excitement and burning desire were buried in their hearts.
It was as if Jian Chen was not the person collecting the heavenly resources but they themselves.
“There are another three Godkings. One of them is a late Godking.” At this moment, elder Ying’s face sank slightly. He left Kai Ya, Jian Chen, and so on to break through the formations as they directly advanced to stop the people.
They purposefully chose to fight at the only entrance, as they were afraid that Jian Chen and the others would flee while they were busy.
“So you were collecting the heavenly resources in secret here, and you want to silence us by killing us. Hmph, don’t you dare,” the late Godking who fought against the elders of the White Cloud sect understood everything in the garden very soon and bellowed out. He did not stick around any longer, fleeing rapidly by paying a heavy price.
“God dammit, we let him escape,” the elders of the White Cloud sect cursed. Then they slaughtered the two other Godkings mercilessly before returning with pale faces.
“The news will be leaked very soon. Once other people learn that we have a large quantity of God Tier heavenly resources on us, they won’t let us go. A large group of people will hunt us down, so we have to leave immediately,” elder Ying growled as his expression seemed horrible.
Jian Chen’s group understood the severity of the matter. They immediately stopped attacking the formations. Jian Chen put away the Anatta Tower before leaving with the five elders of the White Cloud sect.
Chanlong removed the Heaven’s Blockade Formation as well. Without it, the formation immediately began to replenish the energy it lost after the Anna Tower struck it through the Neptunean Divine Palace.
Several hundred thousand kilometers away from the Divine Medicinal Garden, there was a dwelling. An extremely powerful formation that radiated with powerful pulses of energy completely surrounded it.
Many experts gathered outside the formation, with both Overgods and Godkings. There were even some Gods there.
“Hmph, I refuse to believe that she can take away the Chaotic Prime’s legacy with so many people guarding this place.”
“All she can blame is that her cultivation is too low. She’s only an Overgod, and she has obtained the legacy of a Chaotic Prime. Not only will it fail to benefit her, but she’ll even end up meeting her fate instead.”
A group of Godkings stood outside the formation. They did not move away at all. They discussed with soft voices as they smiled viciously. All of them stared at the interior of the dwelling.
There was a girl who only seemed to be fifteen or sixteen, standing up straight next to a large tree in the outer layer of the crowd. She also stared at the dwelling nervously.
“Sister Zi Yun, you have to come out fine. You can’t let anything happen to you. You can’t come out. Don’t come out,” the girl clutched her hands as she constantly prayed inside. She worried very much as her face paled slightly.
Her cultivation was extremely low. She was still at the Mortal realm, only having become an Earth Saint Master recently. Let alone the Godhood experts gathered here, even the battle shockwaves from some Origin realm experts would be enough to take the life of such a puny existence. It was extremely dangerous for her to be standing here.
Fortunately, there were no battles in the vicinity of the dwelling.
At this moment, a bloodied Godking shot over from the distance with lightning speed. He called out from very far away, “Someone has a treasure that specialises in getting through formations and harvested the heavenly resources in the Divine Medicinal Garden en masse. They’ve cleaned out a quarter of the entire place, and not a single Flower of Ways is left. Immediately stop them if you want heavenly resources. If you waste any more time, they’ll clean the whole place out.”
“What? They’ve cleaned out a quarter of the Divine Medicinal Garden?”
“Are you kidding me? There are over a thousand God Tier heavenly resources in the garden. Doesn’t that mean they’ve taken over two hundred heavenly resources?”
“Heavens, only a few of the heavenly resources in there are taken away each time the Neptunean Divine Palace is opened. Now a quarter of the entire place has been emptied!”
There was a huge chain reaction. All the Godkings around the dwelling gasped when they heard the news, as they were shocked. There were some people who did not believe it as well, bearing suspicion towards that. They believed that this Godking held other intentions, where he was probably connected to the Overgod who had gained the legacy. He wanted to draw them all away using a diversion.
