Chapter 859 - 384: Rule of Imitation 3

"The methods of this Tribulation Taker are extremely strange. I suggest we gather immediately to prevent giving them any chance to exploit."

At this moment, Mao Qi’s voice interrupted.

Through the communication tool, Mao Qi’s voice lost its usual multifaceted effects of face-to-face encounters; it was a somewhat sharp male voice.

His voice also lost the calmness it initially had, after all, one in their group was seriously injured while another was near death, greatly reducing their ability to resist danger.

In response to his proposal, Zhu Jiu said, "Being able to break the rules, this ability is quite similar to the strange creatures we encountered before. Although my Law of Destruction eradicated them completely, I could still feel the strange power within them resisting my Law, even faintly showing signs of holding its own."

"This may not be the work of the Tribulation Taker, rather, it appears to be caused by an original creature of this instance."

Zhu Jiu, though outwardly appearing as a somewhat effeminate youth, had a very keen intuition and immediately discerned the truth, which surprised Chu Xiu a bit.

"So what?" Mao Qi’s irritable voice sounded, "You just explained the situation to everyone, naturally, the Tribulation Taker now also knows about our less-than-ideal condition! Do you think they would miss this opportunity?"

Mao Qi’s voice was rather displeased, seeming to blame Zhu Jiu for not thinking it through.

Zhu Jiu gave a dry laugh: "Brother Mu and Brother Remnant Demon are beside me, currently only Brother Chu and Miss Xuanzhao’s whereabouts are unknown..."

Chu Xiu chuckled: "Miss Xuanzhao is not receiving our messages, so Brother Zhu specifically mentioned me. My stance has not changed; given the change in circumstances, we should more urgently gather the Divine Artifacts."

"If Brother Mao is afraid, he can flee and hide; this Star Jumping Ship is so large, I certainly don’t have the ability to find Brother Mao."

Mao Qi clearly caught the subtle mockery in Chu Xiu’s words, snorted lightly, and said no more.

Zhu Jiu quickly attempted to smooth things over: "We already know the properties of the Divine Artifacts, their importance is self-evident."

"However, we do need to gather soon to avoid being picked off one by one. After all, no matter how powerful the Divine Artifact is, without the proper user, it’s just an ordinary Mythical Equipment."

"How about this, let’s quickly gather the Divine Artifacts currently in our areas, then immediately head to the vicinity of the central area to convene. If we fail to find a Divine Artifact in ten minutes, we head there directly. How does that sound?"

Zhu Jiu sent a location coordinate.

"Central area?" Mao Qi asked in confusion.

"Correct," Zhu Jiu nodded, "Internal conflict is meaningless in the absence of information; it is very necessary to explore the central area. Aside from that, Miss Xuanzhao’s strength is also something we urgently need."

Mao Qi agreed with a sound of acknowledgment, evidently deeply impressed by Xie Xuanzhao’s doppelgänger.

After pondering for a moment, he spoke, "Ten minutes is too long, at most five minutes."

Zhu Jiu asked, "What does Brother Chen think?"

Chu Xiu said, "I have no objections."

This arrangement perfectly aligns with his plans; if he could gain intelligence with the help of the Civilization Envoy, all the better.

Zhu Jiu said, "Then let’s decide on that."

Reaching an agreement, the three teams immediately sprang into action without delay.

Chu Xiu seized the jade statue before him, then rushed towards the location of the third Divine Artifact.

He repeated his earlier strategy, pushing his internal mana to the limit, and finally secured the third Divine Artifact within the five-minute timeframe.

It was a four-legged cauldron engraved with numerous fierce beasts.

Having completed this, Chu Xiu wasted no time and headed towards the agreed location.
