Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

"Spying comes at a price."

A cold voice rang in Shadow Cat's ears.

next second.

The sword flashed by.

puff!

A soft sound.

The Shadow Cat's ferocious head shot skyward.

Black blood, like a fountain, sprayed across the earth.

The headless corpse twitched a few times before collapsing to the ground, turning into a pool of black water that merged into the soil.

Instant kill!

A Shadowcat, whose strength was comparable to a peak two-star core and was known for its unpredictable magic and deadly sneak attacks, was swiftly and decisively killed.

From its appearance to its death, the entire process takes only a few breaths.

Kyle and his people have become completely numb.

They stared wide-eyed at Luo Qingchen standing there, feeling their worldview being refreshed time and time again.

Just how powerful is this divine messenger?

Is he really human?
Could it be some ancient deity disguised as a human to experience life?

"Alright, the threat is gone."

Luo Qingchen released the Chaos Sword from his hand as if he had only done a trivial matter.

He walked over to Su Xiaowan and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

"What can happen to me?"

Su Xiaoxiao proudly raised her chin.

"I spotted this guy a while ago. I deliberately created an opening to lure it in. My Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation is no joke!"

Luo Qingchen smiled and shook her head.

This little girl is always so clever and mischievous.

However, it's fortunate that she was there.

Her formations always play an unexpected and crucial role in battle.

With the Crystal Armor Beast and Shadow Cat dealt with, the data collection went very smoothly.

Luo Qingchen used the power of chaos to easily peel the hard star iron off the mountain wall.

Lin Wan'er also found the area where the calming flowers were in full bloom and carefully picked them.

The harvest was quite substantial.

Just as they were about to leave, Luo Qingchen's gaze was drawn to the spot where the Shadow Cat's corpse had disappeared.

The soil there had an abnormal dark red color.

Moreover, an extremely faint but incredibly pure energy fluctuation emanated from underground.

"what?"

Luo Qingchen's heart stirred.

He walked over, squatted down, and used his hands to brush away the surface soil.

Soon, a fist-sized, dreamlike purple-gold ore covered with star-like patterns appeared before his eyes.

The moment this piece of ore appeared.

The bronze star map on Luo Qingchen's chest began to heat up intensely once again.

That feeling of longing was several times stronger than when I encountered the map fragments before!
"What is this?"

Lin Wan'er and Su Xiaowan also came over, looking at the beautiful stone with curiosity.

Kyle also came over. He stared at the ore for a long time, then said uncertainly, "This...this seems to be...the legendary 'Void Star Essence'?"

"Void Star Essence?"

Luo Qingchen looked at him.

"Correct!"

Kyle's tone became agitated.

"I've only ever seen records of it in the tribe's oldest books! Legend has it that it's the core of a star, a treasure that could only have formed after drifting in the void for billions of years, absorbing endless stellar essence!"

"The ancient texts say that a small piece of Void Star Essence, the size of a fingernail, is enough to allow a two-star core expert to break through to the three-star level directly! And there are no side effects!"

"More importantly, it is the top-tier material for repairing and upgrading all stellar attribute magical artifacts! There is no other like it!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingchen's heart pounded.

The finest materials!
No wonder the Star Chart Bronze Disk reacted so strongly!
This is practically a supplement tailor-made for it!
"Then why is Shadow Cat guarding this place?"

Su Xiaowan raised a question.

"I suspect that this piece of Void Star Marrow is the key to this Shadow Cat's evolution."

Luo Qingchen analyzed.

"It must have discovered this place by accident, and then absorbed the energy emitted by the star marrow over the years to become so powerful. It guards this place and prevents the crystal-armored beast from getting close, also in order to monopolize this treasure."

"Unfortunately, it met us and ended up doing all the work for us."

Lin Wan'er said with a smile.

Luo Qingchen carefully put away the piece of Void Star Marrow.

This thing is extremely precious.

He could sense that once it was integrated into the Star Chart Bronze Disc, this treasure would undergo a tremendous transformation.

“My Lord, this treasure was discovered by you, and it rightfully belongs to you.”

Kyle said with a sincere expression.

He is now completely convinced by Luo Qingchen.

Treasures are wonderful, but one must be alive to enjoy them.

Following this divine messenger, he felt an overwhelming sense of security.

Luo Qingchen nodded without standing on ceremony.

This piece of Void Star Essence is of great significance to him, and he would never give it up to anyone else.

The group, laden with their spoils, embarked on their journey back to the tribe.

However, just as they were about to leave the Crystal Meteor Mountains.

Luo Qingchen suddenly stopped.

His brow furrowed slightly.

"What's wrong, Brother Luo?"

Su Xiaowan keenly noticed his unusual behavior.

"A visitor is coming."

Luo Qingchen's eyes turned cold.

His divine sense detected several powerful auras rapidly approaching them from a distance.

Moreover, he was very familiar with that aura.

It’s a demon cultivator!
It is the same source as the black-clad demonic cultivators we encountered in the Star Origin Secret Realm, filled with filth and evil "shadow" power!
"alert!"

Kyle realized what was happening and immediately gave a loud order.

All the Canaanite warriors instantly surrounded Luo Qingchen and his companions, forming a defensive stance.

Their faces were filled with solemnity and determination.

The Canaanite race has no choice but to fight to the death against the servants of "Shadow"!

soon.

Five black figures appeared in their line of sight.

The five men were all dressed in matching black robes, with hideous skull masks on their faces, and exuded a nauseatingly evil aura.

The leader possessed an especially powerful aura.

That oppressive aura had clearly reached the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm!

The other four were also at the early stage of the Golden Core realm.

This lineup is enough to sweep through the entire Canaanite tribes!
"Jie Jie Jie..."

The leader, a mid-stage Golden Core demonic cultivator, let out a piercing, eerie laugh.

His gaze, like that of a venomous snake, swept over Kyle and the others before finally settling on Luo Qingchen, who was surrounded in the middle.

"It's really easy to get it."

He said in a hoarse voice.

"You killed our men, stole our things, and you still dare to loiter here. Kid, you've got some nerve."

Luo Qingchen's heart sank suddenly.

They came for me!

It was the signal sent by the demonic cultivator leader he killed in the Crystal Meteor Forest before he died that attracted them here!

"You are 'Shadow's' lackeys?"

Luo Qingchen asked coldly.

"shadow?"

The demonic cultivator leader was stunned for a moment, then burst into wild laughter.

"Hahaha! Lackeys? What ignorant natives! We are the most loyal servants of the Shadow Lord! We have come to bring new life to this corrupt world!"

His eyes became fanatical and crazed. "Originally, our goal was just the 'sacrifice' in this tribe that was about to be completed. We never expected to encounter such an unexpected delight as you."

His gaze was fixed greedily on Luo Qingchen.

"The chaotic power within you, and the aura of that Heavenly Treasure, are too tempting. If I offer you to my master, he will surely bestow upon me unparalleled glory and power!"

Sacrifice?

A thought flashed through Luo Qingchen's mind in an instant.

The offerings they mentioned, could they be...?

He glanced instinctively at Kyle beside him.

Kyle's face also turned extremely ugly.

He clearly had something in mind too.

"Hand over the items and that woman."

The demonic cultivator leader stretched out a withered hand and pointed at Su Xiaowan.

"I can make your deaths quicker."

Luo Qingchen's eyes turned completely cold.

He got it.

This group of demonic cultivators has two real targets.

One is oneself.

The other one is Su Xiaowan!
No, to be precise, it was the rare and precious material that Su Xiaowan obtained in the Star Origin Secret Realm, the Seven-Colored Glazed Grass!

That kind of thing has a fatal attraction for demonic cultivators!

They were constantly tracking themselves!

But I was delayed here because I had to help the Canaanite tribes!
Even the appearance of this piece of Void Star Essence may not be a coincidence!
Did they deliberately lure me here?
Countless thoughts flashed through Luo Qingchen's mind.

He felt as if he were caught in a huge conspiracy.

"If you want to touch them, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

Kyle roared, his body blazing with blue light, and he was the first to charge forward.

The Canaanite warriors behind him also charged without hesitation.

"Unbelievable!"

The demonic cultivator leader snorted disdainfully.

He simply waved his hand casually.

Streaks of black demonic energy transformed into sharp blades, instantly piercing the bodies of the Canaanite warriors.

Blood stained the earth red.

Kyle was also struck by a burst of demonic energy, sending him flying backward, spitting out blood, and his spear broke in two.

The gap in strength is too great!
"Now, it's your turn."

The demonic cultivator leader grinned maliciously as he walked step by step toward Luo Qingchen.

The terrifying pressure, like a mountain, pressed down on Lin Wan'er and Su Xiaowan, making it almost impossible for them to breathe.

Luo Qingchen shielded them behind her, her chaotic power surging wildly to resist the oppressive force.

His brain was racing, searching for a solution.

There's absolutely no chance of winning if we fight head-on.

The opponent has one mid-stage Golden Core cultivator and four early-stage Golden Core cultivators.

On their side, he was the only one in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

Lin Wan'er and Su Xiaowan are both only at the Foundation Establishment stage.

His only advantage is his chaotic power, which has a restraining effect on demonic energy.

But there were too many of them!
How to do?
At this critical moment.

A flash of inspiration struck Luo Qingchen.

He thought of that piece of Void Star Essence he had just acquired!

He made an incredibly crazy decision.

He wanted to refine the Void Star Essence on the spot and upgrade the Star Chart Bronze Plate!
Then, using the power unleashed by the upgraded bronze disc, they fought against this group of demonic cultivators!
This is a big gamble!
If you win the bet, the world is your oyster!

If you lose the bet, you're doomed!

"Wan'er, Xiao Wan, help me hold them off!"

Luo Qingchen spoke in a deep voice to the two women behind him.

"No matter what, we must hold on for ten breaths!"

After saying that, he didn't hesitate any longer and sat down cross-legged.

Then, he took out the Void Star Marrow and the Star Chart Bronze Disc together.

"court death!"

The demonic cultivator leader was taken aback by Luo Qingchen's actions, then flew into a rage.

A sudden breakthrough?

What did he think of himself?

This is humiliating!
"kill him!"

He roared and, along with his four henchmen, transformed into five black shadows and pounced forward.

"Don't think about it!"

Lin Wan'er and Su Xiaowan exchanged a glance, both seeing the resolute look in each other's eyes.

Without hesitation, they stood in front of Luo Qingchen.

They knew this was their only chance of survival!
"Ten Thousand Woods Imprisonment!"

Lin Wan'er let out a delicate shout and pushed the spiritual power within her body to its limit.

Countless thick vines, like wildly growing giant pythons, emerged from the ground and intertwined to form a huge wooden wall that blocked their way.

Sharp wooden spikes have grown on the wooden wall, gleaming with a chilling light.

"Even a grain of rice can shine?"

The leader of the demonic cultivators let out a disdainful sneer.

He didn't stop at all, he simply threw a punch.

Black demonic energy condensed into a giant skull on his fist.

boom!
There was a loud bang.

The seemingly indestructible wooden wall made of vines was instantly blasted into pieces.

Sawdust was flying.

Lin Wan'er was struck as if by a heavy blow, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning deathly pale instantly.

Her body swayed precariously.

"Sister Wan'er!"

Su Xiaowan exclaimed in surprise and quickly helped her up.

"I'm fine..."

Lin Wan'er gritted her teeth and stubbornly stood up straight.

There was not a trace of hesitation in her eyes.

"Xiao Wan, use that!"

"it is good!"

Su Xiaowan nodded heavily.

Her small face was also full of determination.

She took out a large handful of array flags and array plates from her storage bag.

These are all her treasured possessions that she has saved up over time.

"Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire, Four Symbols Annihilation! Activate the formation!"

Su Xiaowan threw out all the array flags and array plates in her hand.

The array flags and array plates transformed into streaks of light in the air, landing all around according to some mysterious pattern.

hum!
A massive, complex killing formation was instantly formed.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, accompanied by flashes of lightning and thunder.

The earth cracked open, and magma surged forth.

The wind howled, and sharp blades rained down.

The entire space was filled with destructive power.

"Oh? It's interesting."

The demonic cultivator leader finally stopped.

He examined the formation with great interest.

"It's actually a complex killing formation. It seems you have some talent in formations, little girl."

"It's a pity that your cultivation level is too weak."

He shook his head, seemingly somewhat regretful.

"In the face of absolute power, any skill is futile."

After speaking, he and the four demonic cultivators behind him simultaneously unleashed a torrent of demonic energy. (End of Chapter)
