Sheng Fu

Chapter 1248 is all about being down-to-earth.
The ancient spirit cat, still shaken, said, "The Qingming Great River is very lively. There are three spatial anomalies, but the situation is complicated, and we can't explore them directly. Two national birds of the demon race are lingering, and there is a giant beast in the depths of the water whose strength is no weaker than Yinglong."

Even three-legged birds roamed and explored that area.

"We originally planned to venture deep into enemy territory with Chu Yu, but at close range, the three-legged bird could sense the fluctuations emanating from another Origin Chip, and we almost exposed ourselves. That's why we rushed here to meet up with you."

After saying this, the Ancient Spirit Cat lowered its head with a hint of shame.

Because it's a very embarrassing process.

But the Primordial Spirit Cat could also comfort itself. If it weren't for the need to protect this Origin Chip, it wouldn't actually be afraid of engaging in a life-or-death battle with the Three-Legged Bird.

Upon hearing this, the nameless old man pondered for a moment and said, "Mount Minghun was once hidden in the Qingming Great River, so it is only natural that it has been carefully explored by various forces."

“There are two demon national birds patrolling there. As soon as there is the slightest movement, the Lord of Eternal Night will know the exact news immediately.”

"And the behemoth deep underwater is no pushover either."

"The Qingming Great River has become a place of trouble. In my opinion, we should temporarily abandon the Qingming Great River and let them fight like dogs. We should change battlefields and explore the Lingyun Mountain Range first."

There is no need to get involved in unnecessary struggles.

Furthermore, even if necessary, one must carefully consider one's own capabilities.

The four members of the Taoist Xuanzong sect, along with an ancient spirit cat and the hidden Yinglong, were only moderately strong, not particularly powerful.

Furthermore, these are all highly sensitive issues; a single action could have far-reaching consequences.

Provoking the Lord of Eternal Night could very well also attract the Demon Lord.

Provoking the three-legged bird will inevitably lead to the luring of the God Emperor.

No matter who they encounter, they will be defeated.

Hengyun looked at Chuyu with great interest and asked softly, "Young friend, do you have any insightful opinions?"
That's right, it was a very serious inquiry. Although Chu Yu was still a teenager, he played a significant role. Moreover, Heng Yun keenly realized that whether things would go smoothly depended entirely on the occasional flashes of inspiration from Chu Yu.

Never underestimate the whimsical ideas of young people.

Chu Yu pondered for a moment and said, "For now, we should follow Senior Wuming's plan. It is correct for us to operate in the shadows and not get involved in the situation at Qingming Dadu. Even if there is no battle between gods and demons at Qingming Dadu, there will inevitably be some thrilling covert battles."

"Act covertly while observing cautiously."

"Strategically speaking, we have no sovereignty to speak of."

"But we also have a great advantage, which is that once our eldest brother gets on the right track, he may be able to master the supreme magic in a short period of time."

"Everything we are doing now is both to buy strategic space for our elder brother and to buy him time."

For the first time, the nameless old man showed curiosity and asked softly, "I know there are some things you can't say directly, but could you tell us indirectly how far Yuwen Jun has progressed?"

Hengyun, Langfeng, and Changle also looked at Chu Yu with serious expressions.

Chu Yu pursed her lips slightly, her eyes darting around, and said, "It's hard to say. The cause and effect of this matter are too great for me to calculate. I can only hope that my elder brother's Chaos Emperor Qi can become a pillar supporting the sky."

"And I can't predict what will happen next."

"This matter involves countless paths."

Having said that, the four Taoist masters did not press the matter further. They simply continued their work quietly, knowing that when the time came, the flowers would bloom naturally.

Chu Yu changed the subject, saying, "However, the next crossing of the void will require the supreme divine abilities of the four seniors. Although we can use the power of origin to cross the void without leaving a trace, if the three-legged bird is nearby, we will be detected immediately. "Right now, we only have one origin chip, and we must not use it unless absolutely necessary."

"This origin chip could bring benefits or it could bring harm."

Lang Feng smiled casually and said, "It's all a small matter. We'll be responsible for traversing the void, and you can do the specific perception. If necessary, we'll conduct in-depth deductions and calculations."

"By acting in this way, we will naturally be invincible."

"But before that, let's have a simple meal first."

They cooked on the spot, with dry food and water on the ground. The food rations of the Taoist Xuanzong lineage have always been simple.

Chu Yu's tense emotions finally relaxed, and she smiled knowingly, "Don't rush, let me sense the entire Lingyun Mountain Range first."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Yu quickly formed hand seals, and an invisible great power spread out, like a spring breeze, instantly covering the entire Lingyun Mountain Range.

Hengyun also subconsciously created a protective field to shield Chu Yu.

At the same time, these people keenly sensed that Chu Yu's true essence was sometimes present and sometimes absent, and his foundation in the Great Dao was sometimes like a castle in the air and sometimes like a pillar supporting the sky. In the subtle changes, it revealed an indescribable and mysterious power.

They had been cultivating in seclusion within the chaotic space and had an extremely deep understanding of the chaotic true essence, but they had never seen such a wondrous chaotic true essence before. Could it be because Chu Yu was born with a different physique and the chaotic true essence she cultivated was different from that of Gu Yong in the past, or Yuwen Jun in the present?

After a long while, Chu Yu took a deep breath and said, "There is nothing unusual here. After dinner, let's go for a walk on Zhengxiong Mountain. It is a place where wanderers from the martial arts world gather all year round. Perhaps there is a mysterious space that is not very conspicuous."

The nameless old man smiled sheepishly and said, "Okay!"

Some things required careful deduction and calculation from the four of them, but for Chu Yu, it was just a matter of a blink of an eye.

……

Holy Spirit Mountains.

The mountain range runs through the realms of gods and demons. At the border, there is a long suspension bridge, and below the bridge is a bottomless abyss.

Back then, Yuwen Jun and Jing Peiyao witnessed Xiao Huangyue wielding a dagger and chasing after a seriously injured adult man. Jing Peiyao was overjoyed at the sight, and Xiao Huangyue's fate took a dramatic turn.

Now, the God Emperor walked slowly across the suspension bridge, feeling the thick, eerie wind emanating from the abyss.

Although the situation was unfavorable to him, the God Emperor's mind remained calm and composed. He had made many ingenious plans, but in the end, all of them failed.

He didn't feel disappointed or ashamed. From the beginning, he understood one thing: in a struggle, it's not about who has the stronger on paper who will go all the way. There are many examples of the weak defeating the strong, and sometimes luck is also a crucial factor.

He didn't even consider what the Demon Lord was thinking or doing at that moment.

He could only calculate the overall situation. His calculations showed that the Demon Lord was wary, and those who acted in secret all possessed the ability to traverse the void without leaving a trace.

This is a battle fought in secret, and the Demon Lord is the brightest flame in this battle.

In comparison, the God Emperor's presence in this covert battle was faint, even negligible, which seemed somewhat undignified. However, the God Emperor knew that this was also his greatest strategic advantage at the moment.

With the great battle raging on, the God Emperor's record is truly nothing to brag about.

But he was simply defeated by luck and by an unexpected event, not by a lack of strategic planning.

His fighting spirit remains high, and his pursuit of the truth continues unabated.

Every step he took was firm and steady...
