"Mr. Ren, do you know who the two groups are?" Ye Ji asked.
"It's not convenient for me to reveal who you are, but I can tell you one thing. The strongest among the two groups is the eighth-level Daoist!" Ren Dong responded.
"So strong?" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"If the estimate is correct, even if there are no powerful people in the enlightenment realm in Black Rock Valley, there are at least half-enlightened ones!" Ren Dong added.
While speaking, he scanned the crowd and continued.
"If I guess correctly, among the young master and his party, except for that bird that I can't see through, the others with the strongest cultivation level are only second-level Taoists."
"With your formation, if you go to Black Rock Valley, I'm afraid"
"Thank you, Mr. Ren, for your concern!" Ling Hao smiled lightly.
"I think the young master is not a bad person. If you can listen to my advice, it's best not to leave," Ren Dong continued.
"Thank you, Mr. Ren!" Ling Hao interrupted him, "I have a reason to go!"
"In that case, I won't advise you anymore, please take care of yourself!" Ren Dong responded.
"Mr. Ren, you must have been in the Chamber of Commerce for a long time, right?" Ling Hao continued.
"It's almost forty years!" Ren Dong nodded.
"I heard that the eldest young master and young lady of the Chiyuan Chamber of Commerce are both unparalleled geniuses who are rare in a thousand years?" Ling Hao said.
"The eldest young master and eldest lady are indeed talented!" Ren Dong nodded again.
"Comparatively speaking, who is Mr. Ren more optimistic about?" Qinglong asked.
"The eldest young master and eldest lady are both good and bad, but I am not qualified enough to dare to make any comments!" Ren Dong said with a smile.
"Mr. Ren, I heard that your eldest young master and eldest lady are fighting fiercely internally over the succession of the Chamber of Commerce. Is this true?" the judge asked directly.
"This kind of thing is a matter for the senior officials of the Chamber of Commerce, and I don't know about it." Ren Dong smiled again.
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of the question, everyone stopped continuing the topic.
…
Chiyuan City, that place of caution
In the heavily guarded palace hall.
Last time, the woman in green shirt was sitting on a mahogany chair and sipping tea.
After a while, the woman in black walked in. It was the well-dressed woman who went to meet Ling Hao and others a few days ago.
"How's it going?" The woman in blue looked at the woman in black and asked.
"They've already gone!" The woman in black responded with an expression that was hesitant to speak.
"What do you want to say?" the woman in green shirt asked.
"I'm afraid it's going to be very unlucky for them to leave. I'm worried that the treasure in his body will fall into the hands of Black Rock Valley," the woman in black responded.
"In your opinion, is he weak?" The woman in blue shirt smiled lightly.
"Although there is that bird beside him, according to my subordinates' understanding, it may only have the combat power of the ninth-grade Taoist realm, and over there in the Black Rock Valley," the woman in black responded.
"Have you forgotten the treasure in his body?" the woman in green shirt asked.
"That treasure shouldn't be something he can use if he wants to!" the woman in black said.
"Otherwise, the battle at Yuhong Academy some time ago would not have been so tragic!"
"That's because his life was not in danger at the time!" The woman in green shirt took a sip of tea.
"What do you mean?" The woman in black was slightly stunned.
"I believe that the reason why the treasure chose him is no accident! And since it chose him, it will definitely not watch him fall!"
"When his life is threatened, the treasure will take action automatically without him taking the initiative!"
"As for the strength of Black Rock Valley, although it is indeed good, it is probably still a little weak in front of the ten sacred objects!"
"But..." The woman in black was stunned for a moment before speaking.
"Stop it!" the woman in green shirt responded.
"Take two people with you and take a look. When the time comes, you can
Helping him out is better than adding icing on the cake!"
"I understand!" The black woman nodded.
"Have you found out who is entrusted by Black Rock Valley? Is it related to that person?" The woman in green shirt continued to ask.
"We haven't investigated this yet!" The woman in black shook her head.
"Yeah!" The woman in green shirt nodded slightly and waved her hand, "Go ahead!" .??.
"Copy that!" The woman in black bowed slightly and turned to leave.
After the woman in black left, the woman in green stared forward and muttered.
"It's time to roll over this pool of warm water in Chiyuan City!"
…
A few hours later, the starship that Ling Hao and others were riding on stopped in an open space, surrounded by rugged rocks and howling mountain winds.
"Mr. Ren, is this Black Rock Star?" Xuan Pang looked at Ren Dong and asked.
"Exactly!" Ren Dong nodded in response.
While speaking, he led everyone off the starship.
"Why is the spiritual energy here so thin?" Qinglong couldn't help but say after everyone came to the open space.
Not only he noticed it, but everyone including Ling Hao also felt it.
Whether compared with Chiyuan City, Yuhong City, or Sky City, the spiritual energy here is extremely thin, so thin that it is almost negligible.
Where everyone was, there was nothing around except strange-shaped black rocks. There were very few plants, let alone animals.
This is the consequence of the exhaustion of spiritual energy. Without the nurturing of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it would be difficult for all living things to survive.
"In the entire Chiyuan Star Territory, there are many stars with exhausted spiritual energy like the Black Rock Star!" Ren Dong replied.
"Since the spiritual energy here is so thin, how can Black Rock Valley survive?" Zhuihun asked.
"There is a large spirit gathering array in Black Rock Valley. Even if the planet lacks spiritual energy, under the action of the spirit gathering array, it is still possible to conceive.
Educate a world." Ren Dong responded.
"That's it!" Everyone nodded.
"Mr. Ren, where exactly is Black Rock Valley?" Lu Yue looked at Ren Dong and asked.
"Go straight ahead in this direction, about four to five hundred kilometers, and you will see a grand canyon." Ren Dong raised his finger and pointed ahead.
"There is a completely different scene inside the canyon, with green trees, chirping birds and fragrant flowers. That is the Black Rock Valley."
"Understood!" Lu Yue nodded slightly.
"Sir, the Chamber of Commerce has ordered that the interstellar ships can only stop here, please understand!" Ren Dong looked at Ling Hao and said.
"Ren Laoyan said too harshly!" Ling Hao smiled and cupped his hands.
"Thank you, Mr. Ren, wait here for us for a day. After one day, if we haven't come back, Mr. Ren can go back!"
"Sir, take care of yourself!" Mr. Ren handed over his hand at the same time.
"Thank you!" Ling Hao nodded and led everyone to fly in the air.
After taking Ling Hao and his party away, a ship staff member looked at Ren Dong and said, "Mr. Ren, let's go back? They can't come back alive anyway!"
"Everyone is on standby. No one is allowed to leave without my order!"
Mr. Ren glanced at the other party and then looked at all the staff and spoke in a deep voice.
About twenty minutes later, Ling Hao and his group landed in an open space, not far from them was the canyon.
Even though everyone was mentally prepared, they were still shocked by the sight in front of them.
Strictly speaking, this place cannot be regarded as a canyon, but more like a huge oasis.
Towering trees tower into the sky, and the chirping of birds and animals can be heard from time to time. There are lakes and lawns as far as the eye can see, forming a sharp contrast with the desolate environment outside.
Everyone observed at the same time that there were ripples in the void outside the oasis, and it was obvious that there was a barrier.
"Brother, how do you fix it?" Qinglong looked at Ling Hao and asked.
