Lin Bei urged the Heavenly Emperor. The latter was annoyed and directly took action, opening a wider spatial passageway.
He pointed at the spatial passageway and said, "There are two forks in this spatial passageway. They point to the previous hiding places of the Lord of Fear and the Lord of Darkness. Their hiding places are formed by world fragments. You can refine them directly when you go."
"What about you? Aren't you coming along?"
"I'm not going. I've tried and I can't refine them. Aren't you in a hurry to cultivate? I'll take this time to bring back the few designated Charging Treasures you want."
The Heavenly Emperor waved his hand.
When Lin Bei heard this, his eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up. "Not bad, not bad. You're very professional."
"Hmph."
The Heavenly Emperor really did not want to talk to Lin Bei anymore. He took a step forward and disappeared.
On the other hand, Lin Bei separated two Shadow of Stars clones and let them step into the spatial passageway together. They rushed in two directions at the fork.
Although the Heavenly Emperor had already killed the Lord of Darkness and the Lord of Fear, who knew if their previous nest was still potentially dangerous?
Therefore, to be safe, Lin Bei did not plan to personally come. Instead, he directly arranged for his clones to go. This way, even if there was danger, his main body would not be injured.
In the dark, the Heavenly Emperor watched all of this silently and could not help but laugh. "Not bad, he's quite cautious. This way, we don't have to worry too much about his future. He has eight hundred hearts. I'm afraid there are not many who can scheme against him. Very good, I like him."
After praising Lin Bei in his heart, the Heavenly Emperor left in relief.
In fact, he had already seen Lin Bei as the future hope of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm. Even if he failed, as long as Lin Bei was around, he was confident that the Heavenly Mysterious Realm would definitely become stronger again.
What he could do was to clear the obstacles for Lin Bei as many as possible before he completely grew up.
As a senior, he still had the confidence.
"Looks like the main body has to move faster. As for the clone, after I bring back the Charging Treasures that this kid wants, I have to go to the Bleak Mountain. According to the latest research of the Harmonious Development Group, there… is a huge secret hidden there. If I can borrow the resources inside, the current situation of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm will probably be easier."
The Heavenly Emperor thought to himself.
…
Bleak Mountain, ruins space.
The Azure Beast Qilin turned over and spat out colorful bubbles.
"Eh, I seem to have sensed a wave of malice just now. Who is it…"
A trace of doubt flashed across the Azure Beast Qilin's eyes. Then, it blew out a breath. One of the floating colorful bubbles suddenly exploded. Water vapor condensed and finally turned into an image.
A figure appeared in the scene. It was the Heavenly Emperor.
"So he's a little kid. He actually has bad ideas about the ruins. Hmm… Let me think, how should I reward him?"
A sly look flashed across the Azure Beast Qilin's eyes. It was completely inconsistent with his identity as Emperor Cang.
"Got it! The blacksmith should be short of an assistant. Let's capture him and help!"
Suddenly, the Azure Beast Qilin grinned. Then, it raised its claws and gently grabbed at the image of water vapor condensing. Then, space distorted gently, and a deep spatial passageway appeared in front of it.
The Azure Beast Qilin stretched out its claws and grabbed the back of the Heavenly Emperor's neck from afar.
"Aiyo, damn."
The Heavenly Emperor, who was flying, only felt a chill on his back. Then, before he could react, he felt that half of the space around him seemed to have frozen. Half of his body seemed to have been frozen and he could no longer move.
In the next second, he felt a huge force attack him and he was dragged into a mysterious space. The world spun around him. Just as he was about to vomit, he suddenly felt a pain in his butt and fell to the mud with a plop.
In front of him was a huge head wrapped in clouds.
"Little kid, I'll arrange a job for you to help build the ruins. After this is done, you'll be rewarded."
The Azure Beast Qilin smiled and greeted him. Then, before the Heavenly Emperor could recover, he raised his hand and waved. Another spatial passageway appeared behind him, as if it wanted to suck the Heavenly Emperor in.
"Hey, wait, I'm…"
"Even if you're a Heavenly King, you have to do the job!"
Without waiting for the Heavenly Emperor to speak, the Azure Beast Qilin waved his palm and slapped the Heavenly Emperor into the passageway.
After that, he did not forget to shout into the passageway, "Hey, inside, I'll send you a helper. Just instruct him if you have any requests. I won't join in the fun! Hmm… I'll sleep first."
"Emperor Cang! You…"
With a loud bang, the spatial passageway on the mountain wall was sealed, and the sound coming from inside could no longer be heard.
The Azure Beast Qilin stretched lazily and continued to lie by the pond. It raised its head and narrowed its eyes, blowing bubbles.
The Heavenly Emperor was dumbfounded.
Now, he felt as if he was in a fragment world. When he looked around, he saw countless black holes and spatial cracks. Some places were filled with flames, some were filled with lightning like waterfalls, and some places were like Abyss. Just looking at them made him shudder.
"This… Where the hell is this?! Wasn't I rushing in the Void Battleground? Why was I thrown here?"
