476: Branch, ten relics

After staying a few days in the Supreme Immortal Court, Su Changqing planned to leave.

Yang Ziling was a bit reluctant; she tightly clutched Su Changqing's hand, unwilling to part.

"Changqing, be careful on your way back this time. If you have time, come visit me often."

Upon hearing this, Su Changqing gently caressed her hair, smiled, and kissed her.

"Don't worry, I will."

"Mm~"

Although Yang Ziling was extremely reluctant, she knew that Su Changqing still had important matters to attend to and couldn't stay with her indefinitely.

Moreover, Yang Ziling also needed to cultivate.

She vowed never to hold Su Changqing back.

After a moment of tender farewell, Su Changqing departed on his Immortal Boat.

Gazing at Su Changqing's receding figure, Yang Ziling was filled with reluctance, her eyes seemingly about to gaze through him.

Mystic Azure, who was beside her, cheekily approached and said:

"Senior Sister, Senior Brother Su has been gone for a long time; his figure is no longer visible. You're almost turning into a husband-watching stone."

Yang Ziling: "!!!"

"Mystic Azure!"

"If you want to die, I can fulfill your wish."

A furious roar instantly scared Mystic Azure out of his wits.

It almost scared him into impotence.

"Cough, cough..."

"I was wrong, Senior... Senior Sister, I was wrong!"

Mystic Azure fled rapidly.

...

On the Immortal Boat, Su Changqing sat cross-legged, meditating and cultivating.

After learning some information about the ancient gods this time, Su Changqing placed even more importance on cultivation.

He was currently at the Immortal Monarch Realm; although his combat power was considerable, he was still insufficient when facing the ancient gods.

If the ancient gods were to descend one day, he and those around him would likely fall into danger.

Su Changqing was very displeased with this sense of insecurity.

"That Forbidden Land is probably not simple. If it really is an ancient god sculpture, I'm afraid I'll have to thoroughly explore it after returning."

Su Changqing murmured in his heart.

Beside him, Yu Mofan obediently followed Su Changqing.

During this time, she had adapted quickly to her role as a maid beside Su Changqing.

The battle she witnessed between Su Changqing and the Gu family that day was even more shocking.

Therefore, on the Immortal Boat, seeing Su Changqing still seizing the time to cultivate, a deeper look of shock involuntarily flashed across her face.

"As expected of the Immortal Realm's number one Prodigy. Not only is his talent high, but he's also so diligent."

Although Yu Mofan was also at the Middle Stage of Immortal Lord, seemingly only one step away from Su Changqing, in reality, their true combat power difference was not insignificant.

She glanced at Su Changqing, who was cultivating, and also sat cross-legged beside him, meditating and cultivating.

The Immortal Boat flew smoothly for a full day and night.

Suddenly!

Su Changqing abruptly opened his eyes.

Yu Mofan was also startled.

"What's wrong?"

She quickly walked to Su Changqing's side and asked nervously.

Su Changqing narrowed his eyes, spreading his Divine Sense to search extensively.

After a moment, he spoke:

"There's a familiar Qi around."

Familiar Qi?

Yu Mofan was puzzled.

Su Changqing continued:

"It's the Qi of those Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends."

Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends!!

These words instantly made Yu Mofan tense up, her pupils contracting as she prepared for battle.

Those Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends had annihilated the Yu Family; for her, it was an absolutely irreconcilable hatred.

"Let's go down and see."

"Okay."

Su Changqing put away his Immortal Boat and descended with Yu Mofan.

...

Outside a dilapidated ancient temple, dozens of black-clad figures stood.

These dozens of individuals were all Immortal Venerable cultivators, dressed in black robes, no different from the group of Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends from before.

"Have you gotten the item?"

An aged voice came, and the leading Black-Clothed Immortal Reverend said coldly.

"Reporting to Helmsman, we have it!"

With that, the Black-Clothed Immortal Reverend opened his hand, and ten pristine white round pearls, each the size of a pigeon's egg, rested in his palm.

"Good, good!"

The leading Immortal Venerable's face immediately lit up with excitement, his words filled with agitation.

"Ten Immortal Venerable Perfection relics. If I devour them all, to what extent will my strength increase? It's truly exciting."

The leading Black-Clothed Immortal Reverend was extremely surprised.

One must know that although these ten Immortal Venerable Perfection relics had endured countless years and lost a significant amount of internal energy,

all ten were Immortal Venerable Perfection relics, and by absorbing them all, his strength would definitely surge.

Taking the relics, the Black-Clothed Immortal Reverend before him spoke:

"By the way, did you encounter any accidents when seizing the relics?"

"A few days ago, those fools from the Blackwood Sub-helm were completely wiped out when they annihilated the Yu Family to seize the dao jade, leaving no survivors. The higher-ups are very angry."

He sneered.

His relationship with the Blackwood Sub-helm was mediocre, even somewhat hostile. Therefore, upon hearing that the Blackwood Sub-helm was destroyed, he not only felt no anger but even a faint sense of joy in his heart.

They deserved to die!

"Rest assured, Helmsman, we encountered no problems in seizing the relics this time."

"That's good."

The the black-clothed leader nodded, quite satisfied.

Just then, a voice resounded, out of place.

"Immortal Venerable Perfection relics, good stuff. I want them too, what should I do..."

"Who's there!?"

As the voice fell, the the black-clothed leader's expression instantly tensed, his pupils constricting as he looked around defensively.

However, the next moment, a seven-colored tree suddenly appeared in the sky, like a rootless tree, manifesting out of thin air.

Before the the black-clothed leader could react, the ten relics in his hand suddenly floated up, as if something was attracting them, flying straight towards the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree.

"No!!"

The the black-clothed leader immediately panicked and quickly tried to stop them.

But the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree could brush away anything; it was not something he could resist.

This was a genuine Grandmist Immortal Artifact!

"Not bad, not bad, good stuff."

Su Changqing and Yu Mofan suddenly appeared.

He held the ten relics in his hand, very satisfied.

The energy contained within them was not low; it could even directly help him cultivate to the Middle or Late Stage of Immortal Venerable.

For him, it was exactly what he needed.

Of course, he didn't just need these things; he also needed... those Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends.

Su Changqing gazed calmly at the group of Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends before him, the killing intent in his eyes extremely obvious.

"Who are you, and why do you seize my treasure!"

The the black-clothed leader coldly snorted.

Su Changqing narrowed his eyes and said with a smile:

"The one you just mentioned who annihilated the Blackwood Sub-helm, that would be me."

The one who annihilated the Blackwood Sub-helm?

Upon hearing Su Changqing's words, the the black-clothed leader before him was instantly dumbfounded.

He never expected that Su Changqing, whom he had just mentioned a moment ago, would appear before him the next moment.

A tense atmosphere spread through everyone's hearts.

"Tell me, what organization are you, what is your internal structure, and where are your various sub-helms? Tell me truthfully, and I can spare your dog lives, how about it?"

Facing Su Changqing's threats and inducements, the Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends showed no sign of wavering.

The the black-clothed leader sneered:

"Want to know?"

"Heh heh, impossible!"
