The Master of Beasts-Chapter 559 - 137:

After the Smoke Array was set up, the Ci Ying Clan, which was once focused on assassination, completely transformed into Spiritual Beast nannies.

As assassins, they must know some healing skills. Although not proficient, they at least know a bit. Coupled with their exquisite dagger techniques, Chen Jiuge waved his hand and appointed them all to take care of the Spiritual Beasts.

The healing skills can treat the injuries and production issues of the Spiritual Beasts, the dagger techniques can be used for butchering, and with their ghostly concealment and probing abilities, they are perfect Spiritual Beast nannies!

The silvery Flying Sound Fish turned into a pot of delicious fish soup, and the fiery-tempered Crack Earth Bull became a barbecue.

"We’re in a hurry, so just eat a little." Chen Jiuge said with a smile.

Sipping the juice made with Immortal Fruit as raw materials, Xiao Hong was speechless and said, "This is casual? True Immortal level Spiritual Beasts, True Immortal level Immortal Brew, and even that incense must be True Immortal level as well!"

Though the Golden Desert is rich in resources, the abundant parts are not for enjoyment!

It is precious for its uniquely functional Spiritual Beasts, extraordinarily effective Spiritual Medicine, numerous Heaven and Earth Holy Weapons, the proliferating Alien Races, various new Secret Techniques, and the precious Heaven and Earth Spirit Ore within!

"Gulp"

"It’s been a long time since I drank authentic Immortal Brew!" Xiao Hong said with some emotion.

"If Master Xiao likes it, take some back with you later." Chen Jiuge said generously.

"Then I won’t be polite."

"Now it’s time to talk business!"

Reluctantly swallowing the beef in her mouth, Xiao Hong said with some dissatisfaction, "Really lacking in romance, I’m not even full yet."

"This stuff isn’t worth much, Master Xiao, if you want, just take more when you leave." Chen Jiuge said with a smile.

"Well, yes, let’s get started then."

Chen Jiuge straightened his face, pulled with his fingers, and a light screen appeared in the air with the two big characters "Xiao Family."

"Master Xiao, you’ve sacrificed 30,000 cultivators sent by the Xiao Family. When and what will the Xiao Family do?"

Xiao Hong bit her finger slightly and shook her head gently, "I have a Secret Technique that can disguise the Life Aura of these Xiao Family cultivators, but only for three months, meaning the Xiao Family won’t notice for three months."

"As for what they’ll do once they find out, it might entail Golden Immortal Elders coming in person, and it might not be just one!"

Chen Jiuge frowned, "Golden Immortal?"

This newly integrated pioneering area in the True Realm isn’t supposed to allow many Golden Immortals in, requiring ten thousand years of assimilation to be identical to other areas of the True Realm.

"Yes, though it’s limited, Golden Immortals can still come in, as long as there’s a price to pay. After all, the City Lord of No. 21 City is notoriously greedy." Xiao Hong hinted.

Embarrassed, Chen Jiuge smiled awkwardly, knowing that the City Lord of No. 21 City was Jin Dabao, a Golden Immortal Elder of the Five Elements Sect’s Jin Hall, a peculiar figure even among Jin Hall.

Normally, Jin Hall Elders are fierce and powerful, but Jin Dabao is cowardly and greedy, willing to do anything as long as there’s enough money!

"Let’s set aside the Xiao Family’s issue for now. Xiao Hong, have someone destroy the Transmission Array in Beauty Valley. Given the Xiao Family’s location, it would take at least ten years to get here, unless their elders are willing to come alone."

"Indeed, these old folks are more afraid of death, especially given the Xiao Family’s current situation. It’s unlikely they’d rush here alone." Xiao Hong nodded in agreement.

"The urgent matter, for now, is still the Secret Storage. You should know something about it, right, Master Xiao?" Chen Jiuge focused and asked.

Xiao Hong nodded slightly, then shook her head, "Actually, this Secret Storage is different from others."

"Different?"

"Yes, unlike the usual Golden Labyrinth Sacrificial Maps in the Golden Desert that come with only one piece, this one has many!" Xiao Hong said seriously.

"Do you know who has them?" Chen Jiuge said, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.

"I don’t know, but you can tell by the number of sacrifices. When I first informed you, it required at least a hundred thousand True Immortals, but actually, at the beginning, you should have felt it, a hundred thousand True Immortals weren’t enough."

"The number needs to be at least doubled, or even more!" Xiao Hong slowly extended two fingers.

"That’s certainly the case." Chen Jiuge recalled, nodding silently.

Xiao Hong sighed, "So when we started large-scale sacrifices, others with Golden Labyrinth Sacrificial Maps also started. I have some speculations!"

"Go on."

"Heavenly Immortal Practitioner Master White Tiger, a year ago, slaughtered hundreds of thousands in ordinary gathering places and killed over a thousand True Immortals."

"Chaos erupted in Star Valley, with tens of thousands of cultivators dead or injured, and reportedly even Heavenly Immortals fell."

After sharing these two pieces of information, Xiao Hong sighed, "These are what I can be a hundred percent sure of. There are countless similar occurrences, but I’m not confident in confirming them."

"Heavenly Immortals, huh?" Chen Jiuge’s eyes focused. Although there were many Heavenly Immortal Spiritual Beasts under him, his own strength was still too weak. To compete for the Secret Storage with these people, there wasn’t much chance.

While Chen Jiuge was pondering, the Golden Maze Maps in their arms suddenly flew out.

"What’s going on?"

Surprised, Chen Jiuge watched the two maps slowly merge. After they fused, Mo Yu, terrified, discovered that Chen Jiuge and Xiao Hong were gone!

"How is this possible? I’ve already broken through to Heavenly Immortal, and I didn’t even sense anything when the masters disappeared?" Mo Yu said, feeling somewhat at a loss.
