#547 - Water Mirror Pavilion God
The massive warship sailed across this half of the star, spreading a strange and chilling aura. Wherever it passed, numerous spiritual birds and auspicious beasts were frightened and fled.
Under Su Chen's command, the warship quickly arrived in front of a vast lake.
This lake was clear and pristine, surrounded by pure white mist. The surrounding mountains were beautiful, and spiritual energy permeated the air, creating a delightful scene.
At the edge of the lake, there were dozens of martial artists standing tall.
"What is that?"
When they saw the dilapidated and demonic warship, they were all shocked and immediately became vigilant.
Under their surprised gazes, Su Chen and his group walked out of the ship.
"Could it be... they are demonic cultivators?"
The others frowned, but after sensing the cultivation levels of Su Chen's group, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Greetings, fellow cultivators, may I ask from which sect you hail?"
Just then, a low and hoarse voice rang out, instantly attracting the attention of Su Chen's group.
It was a middle-aged man wearing purple robes, with a tall and sturdy physique and imposing aura.
However, his face was quite pale, and there was a black scar on his neck that extended all the way to his abdomen, surrounded by an aura of death, indicating a serious injury.
"Be careful, he is a Celestial God!"
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan had a solemn expression and immediately transmitted a warning to everyone.
Upon hearing this, everyone's brows twitched, and they heightened their vigilance.
Although the other party seemed to be in poor condition, he was still a Celestial God!
"We come from the Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate. May I ask where you fellow cultivators are from?"
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan remained outwardly calm, with a warm smile on his face.
"Spirit Clan?"
After hearing the name of the Spirit Clan, the dozens of people on the other side showed a slight look of surprise, obviously having heard of the Spirit Clan.
The Spirit Clan was once one of the most glorious and prosperous races in the God Realm, having produced more than one God King!
Although the Spirit Clan had declined and no longer had God King-level experts, they were still a powerful force and had a widespread reputation.
As for the Flying Feather Gate, its strength and foundation could not compare to the Spirit Clan, and its reputation was relatively small. The other party had not heard of it.
"So you are fellow cultivators from the Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate. My name is Ba Shan, and I come from the Water Mirror Pavilion of the Southern Dipper Dao Province."
The purple-robed Celestial God slowly spoke, revealing his origins.
"Southern Dipper Dao Province?"
Even the members of the Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate frowned slightly, having not heard of this Dao Province, and even less understanding of the Water Mirror Pavilion.
The God Realm was too vast, and a single Dao Province was boundless, with countless races.
Without a doubt, the Southern Dipper Dao Province was too far away from the Dao Province where the Spirit Clan was located, and even a powerful race like the Spirit Clan lacked understanding of it.
"Fellow cultivators, there is a great opportunity in this lake, but there is also great danger. Why don't we join forces to jointly resist the dangers in the lake? After obtaining the opportunity, we can divide it equally, what do you think?"
Soon, Ba Shan spoke, taking the initiative to reveal the situation here and issuing an invitation to join forces.
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan's heart stirred, and he asked, "I wonder what kind of danger there is in this lake that has injured you so badly, Fellow Cultivator Ba Shan?"
Ba Shan shook his head: "The injuries on my body were sustained on the way to this place, and were not caused by the dangers here."
"I can reveal a little to you, there is a Celestial God Realm level existence in the lake!"
"I am severely injured and unable to fight alone. If I have your help, I am 90% confident that I can win."
"If you fellow cultivators act alone, I will be blunt, your chances of success are less than 10%!"
Ba Shan's words caused the members of the Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate to have different expressions, and they began to quietly transmit their voices to exchange opinions.
"I think we can join forces. Having a Celestial God to help is better than fighting alone."
An elder of the Flying Feather Gate was the first to express his opinion.
"I don't think it's appropriate."
Another elder of the Flying Feather Gate immediately objected, saying: "Even if a Celestial God Realm expert is injured, they can still unleash terrifying power. If he regards us as bait, let us attract the firepower of the Celestial God Realm existence in the lake, or attack us at a critical moment, it will be difficult for us to prevent and resist!"
"Moreover, the opportunity here is coveted by Celestial God Realm experts, so how could he easily let us share it?"
"There must be a trick!"
The crowd discussed and transmitted voices to each other, engaging in discussion.
The number of people holding agreeing and opposing opinions was about half and half, making it difficult to unify.
"Young Master Su, what do you think? Should we join forces with them?"
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan looked at Su Chen.
As soon as these words came out, the other powerhouses of the Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate also looked over.
After all, it was Su Chen who decided to come here. In their opinion, Su Chen must have more understanding of this place, and perhaps he could make a more correct decision.
Su Chen smiled slightly and said, "It's very simple, pretend to join forces with them, let them attract the attention of the Celestial God Realm beast at the bottom of the lake, and at a critical moment, let Xin Yan pilot the warship and fire the cannons, killing them all. In this way, wouldn't the opportunity at the bottom of the lake be ours?"
Su Chen's words made everyone's eyes light up.
"Not bad, not bad, insidious enough... cough, I mean, Young Master Su is brilliant!"
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan silently gave a thumbs up.
"But the other party doesn't seem to have any hostility. If we do this, if we fail to kill him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to withstand the anger of a Celestial God..."
Some people also showed worried expressions, not wanting to actively provoke Ba Shan.
After all, the other party was a Celestial God, and since he was able to come to this place smoothly, he must also have extremely terrifying trump cards and methods, which should not be underestimated!
"No, the other party was hostile from the beginning. He never intended to share the opportunity here with us."
Su Chen's tone was firm as he made a decision: "Just do as I say, it won't be wrong."
"This... alright!"
The Spirit Clan and the Flying Feather Gate looked at each other, and in the end, most of them chose to agree with Su Chen's decision.
Seeing Su Chen and his group quietly transmitting voices and discussing, Ba Shan still had a faint smile on his face, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes, which he hid very well.
"Fellow Cultivator Ba Shan, we agree to join forces."
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan spoke.
"Very good!"
Ba Shan nodded and said: "Follow me, fellow cultivators. You must listen to my command later, otherwise, even the slightest mistake may lead to a crisis of death. This is not a joke."
After speaking, Ba Shan looked at Su Chen and his group, signaling everyone to walk in front.
The Thirteenth Elder of the Spirit Clan shook his head slightly and said neither humble nor arrogant: "We are too unfamiliar with this place, please lead the way, Fellow Cultivator Ba Shan."
The smile on Ba Shan's face faded a bit, but he didn't insist. Instead, he strode forward.
As for Su Chen and his group, under Su Chen's voice instructions, except for Qing Ling, Nan Yin, Qiao Yun, and Gu Ruoxi, the other True God Realm juniors retreated to the warship with Xin Yan.
The remaining people followed Ba Shan forward.
