Chapter 191 Crimson Planet!
Chapter 191 Crimson Planet!
It's good that they left; things will be quiet now that they're gone.
However, you must live on; I'm still waiting for you to repay me.
Xiao Hong quickly walked over to Murong Yu, who was looking up at the sky and talking to herself, and whispered, "President..."
What president? Didn't I tell you that you can just call me Miss when no one's around?
Yes, Miss.
what's up?
Oh, Miss, a letter has arrived from the master!
Oh, a letter from my Father? What did he say?
The master said that this matter concerning humans is a decree from a powerful immortal, and that you are not allowed to participate in it. Please consider this for the sake of the family!
The master's last sentence was spoken in a pleading tone.
Alright, alright, I'm just doing my business, I haven't done anything wrong, it's not like I'm colluding with that group.
Ninth Brother, another cosmic cloud has appeared a million miles to the left ahead.
Go, take it down, keep it for later use.
Alright! After obtaining Zhu Chongjiu's consent, Xiao Hei changed direction slightly and arrived at the place where he had discovered Zhou Yun in a few turns.
A cosmic cloud, about ten thousand miles in diameter, floated quietly in the void of the universe.
After Xiao Hei stood still, Zhu Chongjiu flew to Zhou Yun's side, raised his hand with the storage ring on it, and chanted a spell.
The cosmic cloud was seen drifting towards Zhu Chongjiu's storage ring at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If an unsuspecting person saw this, they might think someone was holding a high-powered vacuum cleaner and sucking up the clouds floating in the air.
After doing all this, Zhu Chongjiu returned to Xiao Hei's back. Xiao Hei adjusted its direction and set off again.
Ninth Brother, this is the fourth cosmic cloud we've found along the way. I feel that if I devour and refine it all, my strength will reach a new level.
Little Black, don't worry, you'll be an adult in another hundred years.
Once you reach adulthood, your strength will naturally increase.
"Wouldn't it be better if you used these four cosmic clouds to cultivate then?" Zhu Chongjiu said, patting Xiao Hei on the back.
Okay, I'll do as Ninth Brother says. I'll use these four cosmic clouds to cultivate after I come of age.
I just feel guilty. I'm the lowest-ranking member of our team, and I can only help everyone with my speed. So I want to improve my skills as soon as possible so that I can fight alongside Brother Jiu and not hold everyone back.
Xiao Jin, who was playing cards on Xiao Hei's broad back, heard Zhu Chongjiu's conversation with Xiao Hei and said:
"Brother Hei, how could you say that? We still need you now!"
"But Ninth Brother, it's strange, isn't it? I heard that Rat Guardian say that although cosmic clouds aren't exactly rare, we've found four of them in just over four months in this vast universe. Could it be that we're incredibly lucky?"
Zhu Chongjiu ignored Xiao Jin, but after hearing Xiao Hei's words, he looked at Xiao Hei, who had been traveling at high speed for more than four months and was weak with a fairy crystal in his mouth, and suddenly told him to stop.
Everyone looked at Zhu Chongjiu's order with confusion.
Alright, Xiao Hei, you should take a break.
We'll use the flying boat to travel from now on.
Since we've already come this far, we should be able to reach the Crimson Flame Planet in about two more months.
Xiao Hei's current strength is still somewhat insufficient for this kind of long-distance, high-speed travel.
Over the next two months, Xiao Hei also took a break to prepare for the crisis that awaited him upon arriving on Crimson Flame Planet.
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xiao Jin asked him in confusion, "Brother Jiu, aren't you afraid that the enemy will discover our movements?"
As Zhu Chongjiu took out the space shuttle from his storage ring, he said to everyone, "Even if Murong Yu wanted to help us keep it a secret, she's probably reached her limit by now."
If I'm not mistaken, the enemy is already on their way.
Therefore, whether or not the route is hidden is probably of little use.
This is the best-case scenario. If things go wrong, Murong Yu might betray us the moment the enemy arrives in Qingfeng World.
"Now, using a flying boat will be even faster."
After saying that, everyone had already entered the flying boat.
Even Xiao Hei, who originally wanted to persist, shrank his body and entered the flying boat after being stopped by Zhu Chongjiu's gaze.
Zhu Chongjiu took out a thousand high-grade immortal crystals from his storage ring and put them into the energy slot.
With hand seals and incantations, the space shuttle, along with everyone else, vanished from the spot.
When they reappeared, they were already five million miles away.
Zhu Chongjiu did not hesitate to use the immortal crystals, jumping wildly one after another until a month and a half later, a very bright spot of light appeared in front of everyone.
This bright spot is much brighter and much larger than all the surrounding planets.
That's not all. In the previously frigid void of space, everyone felt the presence of temperature for the first time.
This shows just how hot this planet called Crimson Flame is.
However, as the saying goes, "looking at a mountain makes one's horse run itself to death."
After a long and arduous journey, leaping non-stop for an entire day, Zhu Chongjiu finally managed to reach the edge of the area radiated by the Crimson Flame Planet.
As the distance gradually closed, the magnificent panorama of the Crimson Flame Planet became increasingly clear.
At this moment, everyone had lost all interest in playing and frolicking. They all quietly lay on the bow of the boat, staring intently at the breathtaking scene before them.
The crimson planet resembled a giant, blazing fireball, radiating endless light and intense heat.
Little Fire stared wide-eyed at the Crimson Flame Planet, his heart filled with amazement and curiosity. He turned to Zhu Chongjiu and asked, "Brother Jiu, according to my senses, it will probably take us almost two more days before we can actually set foot on the surface of the Crimson Flame Planet."
But even from this distance, the planet already appears enormous.
"If we actually reach its surface, just how big would this planet be?"
However, Zhu Chongjiu did not immediately respond to Xiao Huo's question.
Just then, Xiao Jin interjected, "Xiao Huo, this planet will belong to you in the future! Since that's the case, could you do what Xiao Lei did and explore where the treasures on this planet are hidden?"
Hearing Xiao Jin's words, Xiao Huo rolled his eyes and snapped, "Xiao Jin, shut up! Compared to this Crimson Flame Planet, that lightning planet is like comparing a sesame seed to a watermelon. How could I possibly have the ability to find the treasure inside so easily!"
Even if it were me, or even Ninth Brother's divine sense and inner strength, it would be impossible to cover the entire planet.
Upon hearing Xiao Huo's words, Zhu Chongjiu replied, "Xiao Huo is right."
Moreover, it's not just a major issue; the energy on this planet is so violent that it also poses a significant obstacle to spiritual energy.
They simply cannot unleash their full potential.
Based on my current calculations, achieving even one-thousandth of the usual level would be considered good.
At this point, Zhu Chongjiu's expression suddenly turned serious, and he turned to look behind him.
Everyone noticed Zhu Chongjiu's actions and turned to look back in unison.
Ninth Brother, what's wrong?
Just when everyone hadn't found anything, Xiao Rou asked Zhu Chongjiu!
Zhu Chongjiu frowned and said in a low voice, "They're here!"
