Chapter 3269: Solo
More importantly, if Serpent Wyrm Island gathered an army to attack, Chaos Palace would not be able to defend against it given its foundation and strength.
He had many trump cards. At most, he would fight with all his might.
At the very least, he could escape from this place and no one could stop him.
However, everyone from Chaos Palace would probably be wiped out!
Of course, that was the worst possibility he had expected.
“I heard that Serpent Wyrm Island sent invitations to hundreds of second-rate factions in the vicinity this time round. The birthday banquet will definitely be extremely lively and many heroes will be gathered.”
Meng s.h.i.+ was a little excited. “The reason why the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord is willing to send us an invitation card is clearly because he acknowledges Chaos Palace and thinks highly of our Palace Lord.”
Chen Qianhe nodded as well. “If we head to Serpent Wyrm Island to celebrate his birthday, we can’t head there empty-handed. We have to prepare some gifts.”
“After all, it’s such a grand birthday banquet. Serpent Wyrm Island will definitely make a big deal of it. We have to offer presentable gifts lest we embarra.s.s ourselves.”
Xu Rui shook his head. “Previously, Chaos Palace was fleeing in exile everywhere. We have only settled down in Myriad Beast Ridge for a few years. How can we have any decent gifts?”
“We’ll bring that Jade Water Coral.”
Su Zimo said.
In the storage bag of Great Heavenly Supremacy Dhole, there was a Jade Water Coral that was billions of years old and was surrounded by a trace of Water Dao runes.
It could help cultivators who cultivated the Water Great Dao gain better enlightenment.
Xu Rui and the others’ eyes revealed a hint of heartache.
The three of them did not cultivate the Water Great Dao and could not use it in the future.
However, such remnant Dao runes were rare treasures for Dao Comprehension realm experts!
Chen Qianhe smiled. “With this treasure, the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord will definitely be able to sense our Palace Lord’s sincerity. Perhaps he might even exchange it for some other good stuff.”
“Palace Lord.”
Meng s.h.i.+ asked eagerly, “How many people are you bringing with you this time round? Count me in! I’ve never been to Serpent Wyrm Island before nor have I ever seen so many Heavenly Supremacies gathered.”
“I’ll go alone this time.”
Su Zimo shook his head gently. His expression was calm and his tone was indifferent, but it exuded an unquestionable power!
If he was alone, he could deal with a complicated situation.
If he brought Xu Rui and the others along, it would give him worries instead.
Meng s.h.i.+ immediately wilted.
Chen Qianhe smiled and said, “Junior Brother Meng, guarding Chaos Palace is the most important thing. Cultivate to the Dao Comprehension realm as soon as possible. If such a thing happens again, the Palace Lord will definitely bring you along.”
As though he could tell something, Xu Rui probed, “Palace Lord, are you worried about something?”
Su Zimo remained silent.
‘Could there be another motive for the Serpent Wyrm Island Lord’s birthday banquet?’
Xu Rui thought of a possibility and was alarmed. “There’s probably more to this birthday banquet than it seems on the surface. Palace Lord, why don’t you reject the invitation?”
“It’s not appropriate to reject it either.”
Su Zimo expressed his worries.
Xu Rui said, “If Serpent Wyrm Island really has the intention of harming us, you’ll be left with no choice if you make this trip, equivalent to a sheep entering a lion’s den.”
Chen Qianhe reacted as well. “The leaders of Giant Spirit Valley, Mystic Bird Forest and Frost Snowfield who had conflicts with our Chaos Palace will be present as well. These are all Great Heavenly Supremacies. It’s hard to guarantee that they won’t take the opportunity to cause trouble.”
“That’s secondary.”
Xu Rui had a grim expression. “The Serpent Wyrm Island Lord is an Utmost Heavenly Supremacy and has been famous for many years. If he really has the intention to kill, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
“It’s fine.”
Su Zimo said indifferently, “If I want to leave, no one on Serpent Wyrm Island can stop me.”
If anyone else said that, they would definitely feel that it was extremely ridiculous.
How could a Supremacy at the Third Transformation of the Dao Manifestation realm say something so arrogant?!
However, Su Zimo exuded a convincing power.
Xu Rui and the other two had seen Su Zimo’s methods with their own eyes.
Even Great Heavenly Supremacies were killed by him with ease!
Could the Palace Lord already possess the combat strength to take on Utmost Heavenly Supremacies?
To Su Zimo, the worst case scenario was to expose his Green Lotus bloodline.
“After I leave, pa.s.s down the order to round up all the cultivators around the 12 Source Mines of Myriad Beast Ridge. Have them gather on this mountain peak.”
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, “There are restriction formations set up by me around this mountain peak. If anything else happens, it will serve as a pa.s.sable defense.”
“Palace Lord, are you worried that someone will take this opportunity to harm Chaos Palace?”
Xu Rui reacted immediately.
“It’s only a possibility.”
Su Zimo said, “Of course, I might be overthinking things.”
“Are we abandoning all 12 Source Mines?”
Meng s.h.i.+ felt a little reluctant.
“If everything goes well, I should return before long.”
Su Zimo said, “There shouldn’t be anyone occupying the 12 Source Mines during this period of time.”
“Even if they’re occupied by others, we’ll be able to take them back when I return.”
Xu Rui nodded.
He could also sense the undercurrent behind the birthday banquet and there was a high chance that this matter concerned the survival of Chaos Palace!
“Palace Lord, why don’t you skip the birthday banquet as well and we’ll just flee now?”
Meng s.h.i.+ was worried that something would happen if Su Zimo attended the banquet alone.
“It’s fine.”
Su Zimo smiled gently.
Chen Qianhe pretended to smile casually as well. “The Palace Lord is just taking precautions. Perhaps this is just a simple birthday banquet and there’s no danger.”
“I hope so.”
Meng s.h.i.+ muttered.
The three of them retreated and began to gather the many cultivators scattered around Myriad Beast Ridge towards the mountain peak of Su Zimo’s cave abode.
Su Zimo’s time and energy were limited.
The territory of Myriad Beast Ridge was too large and he did not have that much time to cover the entire Myriad Beast Ridge with restriction formations.
For the past ten years, he had only conjured some restriction formations around the mountain peak.
At the same time, Su Zimo summoned the 12 Six Ding Six Jia G.o.ds back and guarded the 12 formation eyes of the mountain peak.
Su Zimo spent another day reinforcing the restriction formations around the mountain peak.
After everything was arranged, Su Zimo set off alone for Serpent Wyrm Island.
…
Serpent Wyrm Island was located in an extremely wide sea.
It was formed from a series of islands. From afar, it looked like a gigantic Serpent Wyrm that occupied the surface of the sea with a majestic aura!
The moment Su Zimo arrived at this sea area, he saw a group of guards from Serpent Wyrm Island. Their leader was also a Supremacy at the Third Transformation of the Dao Manifestation realm.
After reporting the name of Chaos Palace, the guard commander sized Su Zimo up with a hint of disdain in the depths of his eyes.
Even though the two of them were of the same cultivation realm and Su Zimo was a Palace Lord, this guard commander was confident enough to look down on Su Zimo!
That was because he was a guard of Serpent Wyrm Island!
Their backgrounds determined their statuses.
“Follow me.”
The guard commander did not make things difficult for Su Zimo and merely said coldly, “You’re late. All the leaders are already here.”
Su Zimo had an indifferent expression and ignored the person.
Under the lead of the guard commander, Su Zimo arrived at the island that represented where the Dragon Head was. Finally, he saw the gigantic and majestic Serpent Wyrm Hall!
