Baby with Daoist Monarch System-Chapter 464 - 175: Space Gem

So, is this Secret Realm belonging to humanity or to the Exotic Star?

Upon hearing this, Ghost Mother Venerable agreed, "When the Emperor’s Secret Realm awakens, given the current situation of the Exotic Star, the losses will likely be disastrous!"

They all looked towards Holy Eye Venerable.

"Holy Eye Venerable, you’ve always prided yourself on your strategies; do you have a solution this time?"

Immediately, all the Venerables focused their gaze on Holy Eye Venerable.

Among their group of Venerables, Holy Eye Venerable has always acted as their strategist.

Holy Eye Venerable lowered its head in thought for a moment, then said, "The only solution is to prevent the Secret Realm from opening, there’s no other way!"

After finishing, even Holy Eye Venerable seemed somewhat helpless.

The human warriors within the Emperor’s Secret Realm — it, a shadow in the hearts of all the Venerables — guarded Blue Star with an invincible posture, even severely injuring the Holy Tree itself.

If it weren’t for Blue Star being excessively frail, allowing Holy Eye Venerable to find a weakness from a mere thread of possibility, they would likely have all become corpses under that Emperor’s command.

"No choice, since it’s come to this, let’s accept it. Besides, I’ve already ordered all Exotic Star monsters in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone to retreat back to the Exotic Star," Holy Eye Venerable added.

"Recently, we need to increase suppression efforts. Even if we can’t stop the Emperor’s Secret Realm from rebirth, we can at least delay its emergence. I don’t want to face that human emperor!" said the King of Snow Domain.

At this point, Talisman Vengeful God complained, "If it weren’t for Undying Venerable’s arrogance, acting on his own to invade Blue Star, leading to a Venerable’s fall and suppression forces becoming inadequate, the Emperor’s Secret Realm wouldn’t emerge so quickly!"

It’s safe to say that the demise of Undying Venerable directly placed the Exotic Star’s situation in a very passive position. One small misstep might lead to the failure of the invasion plan meticulously laid out over a million years.

The other Venerables agreed, all criticizing the fallen Undying Venerable.

"Enough!" Holy Eye Venerable spoke up, "Next, focus on suppressing the Emperor’s Secret Realm. If it really comes to the final step, we’ll have to summon the Holy Tree again!"

...

In the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone.

Xu Ran and his team have remained invisible, traversing through the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone.

Along the way, apart from the initial scene of beasts stampeding, they haven’t seen any living Exotic Star monsters.

"Little Ran, there truly aren’t any Exotic Star monsters in the entire Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone!" said Zhu Yuheng.

Not seeing a single Exotic Star monster along the way, what was initially a guess has now become certain.

Tiger Girl pouted, clearly dissatisfied, "I haven’t killed enough yet! How did they all vanish?"

The ever-battle-hungry Tiger Girl had her bloodlust fully awakened after the last two sieges, and her desire for combat soared.

Now, if you tell her that there aren’t any Exotic Star monsters in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone, she’s bound to feel a bit disappointed.

The others shared the same sentiment.

Guan Xin, "Finally, we can go all out in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone, only to face this!"

Ningshuang, "Now that there aren’t any Exotic Star monsters left in the entire Catastrophe-level Contaminated Area, how are we supposed to train?"

Tang Chichi, "What exactly happened to make all the Exotic Star monsters in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone retreat?"

This matter continued to echo in their minds.

But at the moment, they had no information.

Seeing his team members in low spirits, Xu Ran spoke up.

"What’s our goal in training outside?"

"To become stronger!" Tiger Girl promptly answered.

"That’s right!" Xu Ran continued, "In this Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone, there are hundreds of cities, each filled with countless treasures!"

"The Exotic Star monsters residing in the cities were forced to retreat in such an urgent situation, they surely didn’t have time to retrieve everything from the cities!"

At this point, if his team members still didn’t understand, it would truly be unreasonable.

"Big brother, are you saying that the entire Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone is now an unexplored treasure vault?" Tiger Girl rubbed her hands together, excitedly asking.

Xu Ran nodded, "Exactly!"

Now, not only Tiger Girl was excited, the entire team was thrilled.

What Xu Ran’s words imply.

It means, not only do all the treasures in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone belong to humanity now, but even this area will become human territory.

Given enough time for Xu Ran and for his [Rune Root Bone] students to etch Purification Arrays here, all the contamination will be converted into Spiritual Qi.

This marks a milestone moment for humanity in their resistance against Exotic Star monsters!

Thinking of this, smiles naturally spread across their faces.

"Big brother, could the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone really become a human safe zone?" Tiger Girl asked.

Xu Ran nodded, "Given enough time and enough materials to etch the [Great Compassion Array], converting the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone into a safe zone is just a matter of time!"

"Moreover, due to the contamination in the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone, even Yue Realm warriors find it hard to adapt. Thus, the converted Spiritual Qi will be even more concentrated than the current Spiritual Qi on Blue Star!"

"Once the Spiritual Qi reaches sufficient concentration, even the Flower of the Earth Veins can be transplanted here. The Purifying Giant Wood and Rule Blood Wood brought back from Mechanical Secret Realm can also be planted!"

"If successful, the Flower of the Earth Veins, Purifying Giant Wood, and Rule Blood Wood will cyclically interact and become a Holy Land for cultivators!"

Xu Ran grew more excited with each word.

Such an event promises blessings across generations, how can he not be thrilled?

The team members also grew more excited the more they listened, even starting to plan out the Catastrophe-level Contamination Zone!
