Chapter 221 Zhu Rong Tian Guang's New Plan
As time slowly passed, five years had gone by since the fifty newly joined Immortal Lords arrived at the Dead Black Sea.
Nearly thirty-six years have passed since Zhu Chongjiu and his companions arrived at the Dead Black Sea.
Nearly sixty years have passed since Zhu Chongjiu and his companions emerged from the Qingfeng World.
It has been almost seven hundred years since Zhu Chongjiu led everyone out of the Cangshen Realm.
On a certain part of the Dead Black Sea, the three immortal lords, Zi Lei, Zhu Rong, and Bao Feng, gathered together.
Zhu Rong, the Supreme Immortal Lord, spoke up: "The army has now basically completed its search of the entire Dead Black Sea."
However, no trace of this group of humans was found.
After saying this, Zhu Rong Tian Guang sighed and shook his head.
Upon hearing Zhu Rong Tian Guang's statement, Zi Lei Xian Jun replied with an unfriendly expression, "Aren't there still more than a dozen dangerous places that haven't been searched yet?"
They're definitely hiding there now.
Seeing Zi Lei's attitude, Zhu Rong Tian Guang angrily said to him, "Do you think I don't know that there are dangerous places that haven't been searched?"
Besides, how are you so sure that human would be hiding there?
Especially now, with our massive army pressing in, most of the monsters in the Dead Black Sea have been driven into those dangerous areas.
If we were to search within the dangerous area at this time, it would inevitably provoke the sea monsters to fight to the death.
After years of continuous searching of the Dead Black Sea, we have also sensed the highest-level monsters in the sea, which are not just Heavenly King level monsters.
I myself have already discovered no fewer than three demon kings at the Heavenly Monarch level.
If we provoke them and they band together for mutual support, we may suffer huge losses.
Since our immortal lord has died in battle, you and I can be spared some punishment.
If other immortal lords were killed here, you and I would still have Storm, but what would happen to the three of us as leaders? Have you thought about what our fate would be afterward?
Do you really think the higher-ups won't make an example of the three of us to apologize to others?
After hearing Zhu Rong's words, both Purple Thunder Immortal Lord and Storm Immortal Lord, especially Purple Thunder Immortal Lord, unusually did not respond or argue back.
Finally, Storm asked Zhu Rong Tian Guang helplessly, "Among them, your mind is the best."
Now it's up to you to think of a solution that satisfies both sides!
After hearing Baofeng's words, Zhurong Tianguang glanced at Zilei and then began to explain his plan.
"Now that most of the Black Sea has been searched and a large army is stationed there."
This shows that the group of humans must be in the areas we have already searched.
Now let's mark all the places that haven't been searched yet.
Then, the army near the marked area will move in a circle towards it, surrounding it.
Once everything is ready, gather all one hundred-plus Celestial Kings together and form them into a team.
Then we'll have this team, composed entirely of Celestial Kings, explore the dangerous places that haven't been searched yet.
The army was only responsible for perimeter security and preventing this group of humans from suddenly escaping from somewhere within the dangerous area.
This serves to intercept and delay the enemy.
As Zhu Rong Tian Guang was speaking, Zi Lei Xian Jun suddenly interrupted, "Then what are we going to do?"
"we?
Of course, we followed behind the Celestial King's army.
If danger is detected, rescue if possible; otherwise...!
Losing a Celestial King is much better than losing a Celestial Lord!
If a Celestial Lord-level demon beast is discovered, and it is found that the Celestial Lords can defeat it, they will swarm in and annihilate it.
If they find them difficult to deal with, or simply cannot be defeated, then we can only consider whether to send representatives to negotiate and offer them some benefits, or to inform the ancestor. We'll see.
Although this method is a bit slower, it can protect our immortal lord's life to the greatest extent.
We've already spent over thirty years here; a few more years won't make a difference.
At this point, Zhu Rong Tian Guang looked up at the void of the universe. At this moment, it was unclear whether he regretted getting involved in this mess or felt helpless in exchanging the life of a Celestial King for the life of a Celestial Lord.
After all, demonic beasts are not like human immortals, although they can develop intelligence after cultivating to a certain level.
However, even if a demon beast with poor bloodline manages to cultivate to an extremely high level by chance, its spiritual nature is still dominated by animalistic desires, and it cannot assess the situation.
Five days later, the army from across the sea began to march toward the locations they had been assigned.
Because they were walking on the seabed, where the sea level varied in depth, even though the lower-level immortal soldiers were given some water-repelling equipment, their speed was still relatively slow.
Five months later, the army finally managed to encircle the remaining dozen or so locations that had not yet been searched.
This situation was, of course, known to Zhu Chongjiu as well.
One day, after being in a coma for five years, Zhu Chongjiu woke up.
For the remaining thirty years or so, the group did nothing but eat, drink, and have fun, and cultivate themselves, gradually accumulating their understanding of their own laws.
At the same time, it also allowed the sea monsters sent out by the giant octopus to report the movements of the search army at any time.
Of course, the moment Zhu Chongjiu woke up, Xiaorou told him the whole story of encountering the giant octopus.
Now that Zhu Chongjiu has learned about the army's movements, he also understands the intentions of these people.
Initially, Zhu Chongjiu decided that before the army completely surrounded his hiding place, he would lead everyone to break out.
However, they were stopped by the giant octopus that arrived.
The giant octopus said, "Even if you break through and leave the Dead Black Sea..."
At your speed, by the time the immortal lord reacts, the army will catch up with you in no time.
At that time, what will you use to deal with that boundless army?
There are also over a hundred Celestial Kings and nearly seventy Celestial Lords?
Hearing the giant octopus's advice, Zhu Chongjiu was well aware of the danger involved.
However, Zhu Chongjiu didn't want his group to implicate the entire sea monster.
But the giant octopus very forcefully told Zhu Chongjiu that they also had their own trump cards.
Even if a great war breaks out, it's hard to say who will live and who will die, and the immortal army may not necessarily gain any advantage.
Three more years have passed, and due to the previous search of dangerous areas, only about fifty of the more than one hundred Celestial Kings remain.
More than half of it was lost.
Even though four immortal lords have perished.
At this moment, more than fifty Immortal Kings, plus sixty-four Immortal Lords, including two Great True Dharma Masters from the outer realm of the Dead Black Sea, all appeared together.
The entire army was mobilized for the search of the seabed, so there was no need for the Great True Master and the other Immortal Lord to remain outside the Dead Black Sea.
Floating in the sea, the Storm Immortal looked down at the bottom of the sea, which was like an endless abyss, and said, "Now, there is only this one place in the entire seabed that has not been searched yet."
"Ok.
This place is also the most dangerous place in the entire Endless Sea.
No fewer than five Heavenly Monarch-level experts were lost here.
To this day, no one knows exactly how deep this place is, or what lies on the seabed.
Upon hearing Storm Immortal Lord's words, Supreme Lord Zhurong frowned and replied.
Upon hearing their conversation, Zi Lei's face hardened as he said, "No matter what's inside, we have to go down and investigate now."
Otherwise, wouldn't all our efforts over the years have been in vain?
After saying that, Zi Lei looked at the group of Immortal Kings around him and said, "It's still the same plan. The Immortal Kings who cultivate the water element law will lead the way."
"Immediately explore this abyss."
Upon hearing the words of the Purple Thunder Immortal Lord, all the Immortal Kings looked troubled, none of them wanting to take the first step.
After all, this is a place where even immortal lords can be buried.
If those insignificant immortal kings were to go in and encounter real danger, wouldn't they be doomed?
Seeing this, Immortal Lord Zi Lei was both angry and somewhat helpless, and said, "This time I will follow the vanguard to explore."
If there is any danger, I will do my best to protect everyone's personal safety.
If we back down now, not only will we be punished when we go back, but all our previous efforts will have been in vain.
Think about the resources you will receive.
I, Zi Lei, hereby guarantee that if anyone leaves this area, everyone's resource rewards will be increased by one-third.
If your talents are still decent, after pulling off this heist, the resources you obtain will be enough to elevate you to the level of a Heavenly Lord.
Upon hearing Immortal Lord Zi Lei mention the reward, the expressions of the Immortal Kings, which were initially reluctant, slowly transformed into fierce ones.
Meanwhile, the Celestial King encouraged himself, saying, "Opportunity is proportional to risk."
There is no free lunch in the world.
It's done!
"I can't fight it. I'll go back and ask my old friend to help me be reborn."
Upon hearing this, a Celestial King beside the man glanced at him disdainfully and said, "Rebirth through transference?"
Fellow immortal, stop fooling around.
"You must understand, if we had truly been killed by that human, even the previous Immortal Lords couldn't have been resurrected, let alone us."
While the two were talking, a Celestial King had already begun to walk towards the bottom of the endless abyss.
