Chapter 421: Chapter 153: The Great Terror is Brewing! (Part 2)

Everyone nodded, no objections.

Then, at the fastest speed, they rushed back to the safe zone.

...

On the other side.

A Yue Realm Godslaying Squad was also patrolling the Alien Battlefield.

This squad had just stepped into the Yue Realm, becoming a Yue Realm Godslaying Squad only a month ago.

"Captain, don’t you think sending Yue Realm for patrol tasks is a bit of a waste of talent?"

A young team member complained.

The captain glared, "What are you talking about, what do you mean by a waste of talent."

"We’ve just entered the Yue Realm, only been a Yue Realm Godslaying Squad for a month, compared to other squads, we’re just beginners."

"It’s a patrol task for beginners, there’s nothing wasteful about it."

Then the captain looked ahead, "Besides, my Heaven-Gifted Divine Technique, [Perception], tells me it won’t be long before the Alien Battlefield undergoes a major change."

At this time, another team member stepped forward and said, "Exactly."

"And look at the Godslaying Squads we encountered along the way, all are Yue Realm, and even veteran Yue Realm Squads."

"They are all out for patrol tasks, which means something major is going to happen on the Alien Battlefield."

The captain also agreed, "That’s right, this is a direct order from the Celestial Summit Pavilion, now there’s not a single exotic creature in the Alien Battlefield, but we’re still sent to patrol, so this matter must be very important."

The person who spoke initially, after being bombarded by their fellow members, lowered their head in shame, "Alright, I understand now."

Then continued, "Captain, there’s not a single exotic creature in the Alien Battlefield, could it be that the other side is preparing a big move, planning to invade Blue Star all at once?"

The captain frowned, "Hard to say, since the Celestial Summit Pavilion issued such an order, maybe that’s what he thinks too."

As they spoke, an invisible fishy smell approached the Yue Realm squad.

Just about to get close to them, the captain, with the [Perception] Heaven-Gifted Divine Technique, suddenly sensed something.

"Quick, retreat!"

As soon as he spoke, several Treasure Talismans stuck to their bodies, and the squad retreated at the fastest speed.

"Captain, what happened?" The young member asked while retreating.

"I just sensed an extremely dangerous aura approaching us."

The team members’ expressions changed drastically on hearing this.

They hadn’t sensed anything at all, and if not for the captain’s [Perception] gift, they wouldn’t even know how they died. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The young member looked frightened.

The captain continued, "Quick, amplify our speed, those things seem to be catching up."

The young member heard, activated the Heaven-Gifted Divine Technique, and instantly, the squad members’ speed doubled.

Now, the captain looked at the young member, "See, even Yue Realm’s speed almost got caught up, and you thought you were wasted talent?"

The young member was speechless, their face turning red.

"This matter needs to be reported back to the Celestial Summit Pavilion, only Yue Realm can barely escape its speed, it’s terrifying."

...

Celestial Summit Pavilion.

Five elders sit in the conference room, facing the newly returned [Miracle] squad.

After listening to the descriptions, the five people frowned deeply.

[Heavenly Craftsmanship]: "No blood or corpses appeared, yet you can smell a bloody odor? Is this the latest method of the Exotic Star?"

[Water Classics] was also puzzled, "What good is just a bloody odor? Do they plan to stink us to death?"

[Divination Master] pondered, "It feels like this bloody odor should be toxic."

[Cabinet] agreed, "Very likely."

While they speculated, the latest intelligence arrived in [Banker]’s hands.

[Banker] saw this and said, "This smell, ordinary Yue Realm cultivators probably can’t detect it, only those with the [Perception] Heaven-Gifted Divine Technique can."

Then, [Banker] relayed the intelligence to everyone.

Then looked at [Miracle] squad, "You can smell this bloody odor because your physical cultivation is too high, and you’ve been baptized with spirit medicine, making your sense of smell surpass ordinary people."

"Moreover, according to intelligence, newly entered Yue Realm cultivators, with Xu Ran’s Treasure Talismans and speed amplification techniques, are barely able to escape the speed of the odor."

Upon hearing this, the other four at the Celestial Summit Pavilion exchanged glances.

[Heavenly Craftsmanship] said, "This means that, for now, only Yue Realm cultivators with speed amplification can enter the Alien Battlefield?"

[Banker] nodded, "Yes!"

After all, they still don’t know what this bloody odor is or whether it poses a threat to humans.

More importantly, whether it could penetrate the safe zone and enter Blue Star.

This crisis might be more severe than the last Evil God and Beast Tide.

This bloody odor is invisible.

[Banker] pondered for a moment, looking at the [Miracle] squad members, "Where is Xu Ran?"

Tiger Girl said, "He’s cultivating at the Celestial Vault Gap."

[Banker] thought, since the [Miracle] squad can smell the bloody odor, why not send them to the Alien Battlefield to use their noses to find out where this stench leads and whether it might penetrate the safe zone.

But this matter requires Xu Ran’s consent.

After all, it’s a very dangerous task, and as the leader of the [Miracle] squad, Xu Ran has the right to decide this matter.

...

Meanwhile.

Xu Ran was sitting cross-legged at the Celestial Vault Gap.

Here, Xu Ran had inscribed the [Great Compassion Array], capable of converting the endless pollution from the Celestial Vault into Spiritual Qi.

Having just emerged from the Secret Realm, aware that the three major spirit medicines in his dantian urgently needed Spiritual Qi, he came directly to the Celestial Vault Gap to cultivate.

Suddenly, as Xu Ran was meditating, he smelled a putrid bloody odor.

He abruptly opened his eyes and found that the Celestial Vault Gap, which had been inscribed with the [Great Compassion Array], was showing dark red blood.

Moreover, this dark red blood could not be purified by the [Great Compassion Array].

Xu Ran frowned, looking at the blood flowing before him.

Though the blood couldn’t be purified, with the array present, the blood stayed at the Celestial Vault Gap.

But before long, the array developed a needle-sized gap, through which a drop of blood leaked.

Quickly, the gap in the array sealed itself.

Xu Ran watched as the drop of blood fell to the ground, the once lush land turning into a large patch of scorched black soil.

"What... is this?"

Just a single drop of blood could turn Blue Star’s soil into this.

Xu Ran continued watching the scorched land, and after ten minutes, it showed no signs of recovery.

"Unrepairable?" Xu Ran murmured.

He lifted his head to look at the array again.

"Since the array can be slightly corroded by this strange blood, although it patched up quickly, over time, the array will eventually be overwhelmed."

"By then, the blood gathered at the Celestial Vault will pour down like a waterfall, and Blue Star, purified with great effort, will likely return to its former state."

After some thought, Xu Ran sensed a similar change occurring in the Alien Battlefield.

A scent possessing the same aura as the blood appeared in the Alien Battlefield.

Xu Ran rubbed his chin, "Is this the method the Exotic Star has been preparing for so long? Truly bizarre."

As Xu Ran contemplated, Tiger Girl and her group brought the five elders of the Celestial Summit Pavilion to the Celestial Vault Gap.

The moment they looked up, they saw the Celestial Vault Gap filled with blood, the array constantly battered by blood, seeming on the verge of collapse at any moment.

In awe, Tiger Girl forgot the purpose of her visit, simply staring at the Celestial Vault Gap, "Is this... the source of the bloody odor in the Alien Battlefield?"

Other members who had smelled the foul bloody aroma echoed, "This blood is disgusting!"

[Heavenly Craftsmanship] approached Xu Ran and asked, "What’s going on here?"
