After discussion, Mu Li, Jing Ze, and Ji Feng decided to stay.
Time is precious, and it's not very ethical. What if Murong Hao wakes up halfway through and hasn't finished looting?
Let's all work together, finish this in a few years, and then leave as soon as possible!
A short while later, the sweeping monk returned and said, "I left the Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit by his side."
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun exclaimed in surprise, "You old monk, how could you be so generous?"
"What is there to be reluctant about? I shouldn't have tampered with a junior in the first place. Now, by handing over the Golden Lotus to him to help him cleanse his marrow and strengthen his foundation, I can at least make up for my guilt a little," the Sweeper Monk replied calmly.
Cao Zhengchun curled his lip and said with some dissatisfaction, "That's a twelfth-grade Golden Lotus of Merit! It takes a thousand years to condense a single drop of merit liquid. That brat Chu Di begged you many times before, but you refused to use it. Now you've given it to that brat Murong so easily. You can only say that he has great fortune!"
It should be noted that the most precious aspect of this twelve-petaled golden lotus of merit is not its offensive or defensive power, but rather the merit elixir it contains.
This elixir is practically a panacea, possessing unimaginable miraculous effects.
Just one drop can instantly make a person transcend the mundane and achieve the body of an immortal.
Moreover, it can also refine magical treasures, reshape golden bodies, heal injuries, and enhance magical power. Even for those powerful individuals who have reached the Saint realm, it is an extremely rare and precious treasure!
Moreover, the Golden Lotus of Merit already contains a jar of spiritual liquid. If Murong Hao uses it all, he might surpass his senior brother Chu Di and become the number one disciple of the third generation.
“That’s good too. Even if Xiong Ba finds out about this later, he won’t be able to say anything more,” Cao Zhengchun said.
After making arrangements, the four set off again.
Five hundred years passed quickly. During these five hundred years, Cao Zhengchun and the Sweeper Monk conquered eight Heavenly Realms!
It's not that they weren't fast enough, but rather that there are only so many Heavenly Dao Worlds. Often, after traveling for many years to reach a Heavenly Dao World, they would find that it had already been conquered.
Some were the work of Xiong Ba, and some were the work of Hu Li, so later they set their sights on the vast world.
Unfortunately, although there are many worlds, most of them have been conquered by other elders of the Cloud Palace. With nowhere else to search, the two decided to return to the Boundless World for one last harvest.
However, they were dumbfounded when they returned to the Boundless World.
The entire Boundless World was filled with a desolate atmosphere, and everyone's face was etched with bewilderment, as if they had just experienced a period of hardship.
At the entrance to the world, someone used magic to leave a message in the void: "The Sweeping Monk and Cao Zhengchun are not human, attacking juniors and bringing shame to Yunxiao Palace!"
Needless to say, this was the work of Xiong Ba. He must have already plundered the entire Boundless World, which is why it looks so desolate.
Moreover, the entire land of the Boundless World looks as if it has been gnawed on, with not a single spot intact. Now, Xiong Ba has turned the Boundless World upside down.
Upon seeing this scene, Cao Zhengchun trembled uncontrollably, clearly trembling with anger.
"Xiong Ba! He attacked his fellow disciples, disregarding the rules. I want him dead!"
As the most advanced Heavenly Dao World, the Boundless World contains twice the resources of an ordinary Heavenly Dao World!
Moreover, Cao Zhengchun is the ruler of the Boundless World, which has long been his property. Xiong Ba's actions are tantamount to attacking his own fellow disciples.
The sweeping monk put his palms together and said, "Amitabha, it's just cause and effect. Didn't you, who cultivates the law of cause and effect, consider this step?"
Cao Zhengchun gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let me run into him in the Chaos, or I'll make him pay!"
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the two divided their spoils and went their separate ways.
Three hundred years later, the elders had returned to the vicinity of the Azure Profound World.
Over the years, they have plundered most of the worlds in the Kunwu Sea. Apart from a few Great Thousand Worlds that were spared, both the Great Thousand Worlds and the Heavenly Dao World have suffered at their hands.
At this moment, Xiong Ba was chatting and laughing with Feng Qingyang and others, and the atmosphere was harmonious and pleasant.
However, at that moment, a strange change occurred!
The group's expressions changed drastically, as if they sensed some impending danger. Without hesitation, they used their respective movement techniques to instantly disappear into the distance.
Immediately afterwards, there was a deafening "boom"!
Where Xiong Ba had been standing, a terrifying force suddenly erupted, forming a massive shockwave.
This power contains endless causal forces, seemingly capable of penetrating the boundaries of time and space, sending chills down one's spine.
In an instant, the entire void was filled with this powerful aura of cause and effect, and the surrounding air became heavy and oppressive.
Mysterious and unpredictable rays of light flickered and intertwined in the void, creating a bizarre yet magnificent scene.
This void also seemed to be distorted and deformed by the impact of this force, showing signs of breaking and collapsing.
Looking into the distance, Xiong Ba couldn't help but feel a surge of relief. He knew that if he had left even a little later, he would probably have been seriously injured, if not seriously hurt!
He also knew very well where that terrifying causal force came from!
He couldn't help but shout, "Cao Zhengchun, when did you learn to use sneak attacks? That's really unsportsmanlike!"
Cao Zhengchun revealed himself and charged straight at Xiong Ba without saying a word.
He was enveloped in the power of cause and effect, and the energy he unleashed could penetrate space directly, making it impossible to defend against.
Xiong Ba, on the other hand, was surrounded by spatial laws, standing there as if he were independent of this space.
However, Cao Zhengchun's punches were enhanced by the power of cause and effect, allowing them to ignore space and land directly on him, so he couldn't help but retaliate.
"Cao Zhengchun, how dare you stand in front of me?"
"Bullshit, Xiong Ba! Today I'll show you who you should mess with and who you shouldn't!"
The two exchanged blows in close combat, throwing punches and kicks at each other, going all out from the start, which made the elders watching the show nodding in approval.
"Cao Zhengchun, say what you have to say, and let everyone be the judge!"
"Hmph! The Boundless World is my world. You took advantage of my absence to plunder it, left behind a magical imprint, and insulted me. Your intentions are despicable!"
Everyone was secretly astonished; Xiong Ba had done something they dared not do!
It wasn't that they were afraid of Cao Zhengchun, but rather that as fellow elders of Yunxiao Palace, they disdained to do such a thing.
Upon hearing Cao Zhengchun's words, everyone looked at Xiong Ba with a meaningful gaze.
Xiong Ba, however, was not intimidated at all. He retorted, "How dare you say that? You used bewitching methods on my disciple Murong Hao and took the opportunity to plunder the world I conquered. You have no manners whatsoever as elders should have!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was even more astonished, and they all looked at Cao Zhengchun with disdain.
