Facing the surging waterspouts and the occasional glimpses of bubbly gaseous and crystalline essences of Eternal Night, Chen Ping was filled with emotion. He knew these were extremely precious resources, but for him, the safety of the AlphaGo members was far more important.
After weighing the pros and cons, Chen Ping made a decision. He believed that the first priority should be ensuring the safety of the AlphaGo team. If they were safe and sound, he would provide them with a God-King level protective jade talisman to enhance their defensive capabilities, and then return to collect these precious Essences of Eternal Night.
So Chen Ping changed direction and sped towards the location of the AlphaGo team.
Chen Ping flew at an incredible speed towards the AlphaGo team's location. Although he didn't have the Serpent Clan's special communication methods, he held a Treant Clan's sensory branch in his hand. This branch possessed magical powers, allowing him to sense the life force of his own kind, and coincidentally, there was a Treant Clan warrior in the AlphaGo team.
Guided by the sensory branch, Chen Ping was able to accurately track the location of the Treant warrior, thus finding the entire AlphaGo squad. In the chaotic and dangerous environment of the Eternal Night Scourge, such a tool was undoubtedly an extremely valuable means of navigation and positioning.
Looking at the branch in his hand that emitted a faint green light and guided him, Chen Ping wasn't afraid of missing it.
Along the way, collect every bit of Eternal Night Essence you encounter, whether it's a waterspout or any other form of Eternal Night Essence.
As the light on the branches grew brighter, it meant they were getting very close to the AlphaGo team.
Guided by the sensing branches, Chen Ping quickly discovered a vast, indistinct island in the darkness. Due to the Eternal Night Cataclysm, visibility was extremely limited, but he could clearly sense that the island was very large.
However, the scene before him shocked him: the island was being relentlessly eroded and shrunk by the raging Eternal Night Cataclysm. Powerful storms, raging waterspouts, and endless dark energy were mercilessly devouring every inch of the island's land. Judging from the current situation, this catastrophe had been ongoing for several days, and the island, seemingly lacking sufficient resilience, was gradually being worn away, with most of it likely already vanished in this terrifying natural disaster.
Chen Ping sighed inwardly. This scene undoubtedly reminded him once again that the power of the Eternal Night Calamity far exceeded his imagination. He had to find the AlphaGo team as soon as possible and ensure their safety.
He also had a tree branch in his hand, which allowed him to accurately locate the AlphaGo team.
As Chen Ping followed the direction indicated by the tree branches, he would occasionally check the situation below. The island was ruined. Looking at the scattered traces of buildings on the island, it was a pity that it was so prosperous before the Eternal Night Calamity arrived.
Chen Ping's gaze was drawn to a magnificent castle, which, despite being relentlessly ravaged by the eternal night, still stood stubbornly in the darkness. A faint, shimmering protective shield enveloped the castle, desperately trying to withstand the impact of tornadoes and other calamities. Each collision caused the shield to vibrate violently, as if it might collapse at any moment.
The sensory branch in Chen Ping's hand clearly guided him, telling him that the AlphaGo team was located there. Without hesitation, he lowered his flight altitude, preparing to approach the castle and enter its interior to confirm the AlphaGo team's exact location and take measures to ensure their safety as soon as possible.
Reaching the shield, Chen Ping reached out and touched it. As expected, he was also blocked outside the shield, which was not unexpected.
Hmm, Chen Ping stroked his chin. The protective barrier was on the verge of breaking. According to his estimation, it could probably last for about ten more minutes before being destroyed by the merciless waters of the Eternal Night Calamity. He just didn't know if the castle was tough enough.
The tornado probably didn't have the added power of seawater, so its power was only at the level of a high-level god, not at the level of a main god. Otherwise, the shield would have shattered long ago.
While observing the protective shield, Chen Ping keenly noticed a detail: this faint protective shield did not penetrate deep underground and fully integrate with the island's foundation. When the tornado violently struck the shield just now, although it failed to break it, it did carry away some surface soil and rubble, briefly revealing an opening that could be entered, although this gap existed for less than a second.
Having found a way to get inside, Chen Ping immediately descended, then after assessing the situation, decisively destroyed the foundation. Taking advantage of the gap in the protective barrier's recovery, he flashed inside and successfully entered the barrier.
Chen Ping smiled smugly, having easily taken care of it.
Following the guidance of the tree branches, Chen Ping headed directly towards the location of the AlphaGo team.
Upon entering the castle, Chen Ping immediately saw a large crowd gathered in the main hall. They appeared shaken but also relieved to have found refuge there. He secretly guessed that these people were refugees taken in by the castle during the Eternal Night Calamity.
Chen Ping was quite impressed with the castle owner for allowing so many people to enter the castle seeking refuge. However, whether it was out of genuine concern or ulterior motives, it was already quite generous to let people in for refuge.
Guided by the branches, Chen Ping quickly found the AlphaGo team members on the third floor. Seeing them safe and sound, a weight was lifted from his heart. Clearly, without the castle's protective shield against the Eternal Night Cataclysm, the AlphaGo team might have perished in this disaster.
There were clearly fewer people here than downstairs, so Chen Ping's arrival immediately attracted a lot of attention. Obviously, not just anyone could come up to the third floor.
A man who appeared to be a guard walked directly towards Chen Ping and said, "Why did you come up here like this? Don't you know you can't come up to the third floor without an invitation?"
Chen Ping smiled and said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. I'm just here to find my people. They're inside."
Chen Ping's voice wasn't loud, but because of the Eternal Night Calamity, everyone here was worried and few people were in the mood to speak. So, although his voice wasn't loud, everyone clearly heard it.
Upon hearing that they had come looking for their clansmen, everyone turned to look.
Upon hearing this, the guard returned and looked around. Seeing that everyone was looking over, he moved aside. They had come to find a clansman, so he decided to move aside and see if anyone recognized them.
Everyone has seen it, including the AlphaGo team. Moreover, they learned from their newly awakened snake-people companions that the island lord has come looking for them, so it might be the island lord himself.
