Moreover, use the major teleportation talisman and proceed at full speed; you must reach Qingshi Jun in Canglan Yu within two hours.
No one can seize my master's opportunity.
Not even an ancient great sect can do it.
Immediately, several people behind him hurriedly returned to the sect.
Also, some took out several talismans inscribed with profound array patterns from their universe rings.
The several elders behind him trembled greatly, for… a major teleportation talisman is worth a fortune, comparable to an earth-grade spiritual treasure.
Used to escape death in critical life-or-death moments.
As a result, the sect leader used it to rush on the journey.
Yes, sir!
Three or four people took out the major teleportation talisman, infused it with spiritual energy, and the mysterious array patterns floated beside the giant sword.
Hum!
The void was directly torn open, revealing a black passage; the giant sword shot violently into it, racing toward the distance.
In just an hour, the sword sect members traveling by sword had already reached the border between the Xihai Main Domain and Canglan Yu.
Just then, several terrifying auras surged forth.
The old sect leader, Spirit Martial True Person, furrowed his brows slightly; his withered arm stretched out, directly cutting off the transmission as he scanned the surrounding void.
A hoarse, aged voice sounded.
"The old hag of the Silver Moon Divine Sect, the shady goods of the Xuanming Holy Land…"
"I didn't expect you all to still be alive, hehe."
His tone carried a faint mockery, full of disdain.
These beings, older than himself, had even spread news of their death in meditation; now, hearing of an opportunity, they all crawled out of their coffins.
Moreover, beings of their rank, to prolong their lives, must squander countless precious resources; if cultivated for descendants, perhaps another Dao-fusion expert could be raised.
Just clinging to life, in the eyes of Spirit Martial True Person, is utterly contemptible.
"When the news of their death in meditation spread, it's a pity no enemies came; otherwise we could have trapped and killed a few, hehe." A withered figure shrouded in black mist stepped out of the void, each step staggering, as if about to collapse at any moment.
He looked extremely weak.
On the other side appeared an old woman in plain clothes, her expression calm, without response.
