Everyone sped up and entered the silver radiance.

"What? Could it be that we are the first ones here?" Little Treasure exclaimed.

This thirty-ninth Heavenly Mechanism Tower was much taller than the previous ones, standing majestically and radiating a tide of soft silver glow that was immensely comforting. But beneath this Heavenly Mechanism Tower, shockingly, not a single cultivator could be seen—only the six of them. This discovery instantly excited everyone.

Previously, the areas around the Heavenly Mechanism Towers had always been crowded with cultivators, making it difficult to even find a place to sit. They had never encountered a situation like this... one without a single other cultivator present. The closer they were to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, the stronger the silver light, and the better its detoxifying effect.

"This is amazing!" Being a lively girl, Little Treasure cheered and immediately flew towards the Heavenly Mechanism Tower. Mu Qing quickly followed. Since Luo Li and the others weren't poisoned, they weren't in a hurry and walked forward slowly.

All six of them arrived beneath the Heavenly Mechanism Tower. They took out many Spirit Stones, arranged them in front of themselves, and began to absorb them quickly.

Throughout their journey in this Nether Immortal Ancient Land, with Suibai's help, they had acquired more Divine Element Longevity Fruits than any other force. Even the so-called Supreme Major Sects, despite deploying numerous teams, hadn't collected as many as this six-member group.

The group rested beneath the Heavenly Mechanism Tower for two to three Time Units. After absorbing numerous Spirit Stones, they all felt re-energized and full of fighting spirit.

"This is really boring! Not a single cultivator. Did we manage to get ahead of everyone else?" Big Black Cat opened his eyes and yawned, looking thoroughly bored.

"Senior Sister, we can't just sit idly by. Let's go find some Divine Element Longevity Fruits," Jun Moxiao suddenly suggested.

Luo Li nodded. "Junior Brother, you're right. Suibai has gone mad and might not appear again. We can't always rely on him; it's time for us to find a Divine Longevity Tree ourselves."

"Okay, Sect Master!" Big Black Cat was the first to get up, declaring his excitement. Having broken through another cultivation layer, he was naturally stronger than before and filled with even more confidence. Furthermore, Mu Qing, the strongest in their team, had broken through to Destiny Realm Level Nine, significantly boosting their group's overall strength.

Everyone stood up, left the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, and vanished into the black mist in an instant.

Not long after they left, they encountered an attack from thousands of Shadow Crows. However, there weren't many Destiny Realm Shadow Crows among them. After a brief clash, the flock scattered due to heavy casualties.

Finding a Divine Longevity Tree in the Nether Immortal Ancient Land was purely a matter of luck; there was no discernible pattern to their appearance. The group kept pushing forward in one direction. Along the way, they encountered a few small waves of attacks from strange creatures, but they managed to fend them off.

After searching in the fog for three to four Time Units, they finally found a small green tree in a valley: the Divine Longevity Tree. There were two Divine Element Longevity Fruits on its branches. Both fruits were over a thousand years old; judging by their appearance, they were approximately 1,500 years old.

The group remained airborne, observing the valley from a distance, not making any rash moves. Next to the small green tree, tens of thousands of red-haired monsters had gathered. Two-thirds of these red-haired monsters were in the Nirvana Realm and one-third were in the Destiny Realm. They surrounded the Divine Longevity Tree in dense layers, making it completely inaccessible.

"Sect Master, I'm fast. How about I try a sneak attack?" Big Black Cat volunteered, his eyes darting.

"Alright," Luo Li agreed after a moment's thought, believing it to be the only viable option at present. Their numbers were too few, and there were too many red-haired monsters. Although there weren't many red-haired monsters at a high level of the Destiny Realm comparable to Mu Qing, there were still thousands ranging from the First to Third Layers of the Destiny Realm. This was already a terrifying number. Once these red-haired monsters went berserk, they wouldn't stand a chance.

"Sect Master, I'm off!" Big Black Cat shouted enthusiastically, vanishing in a streak of black light. Having advanced a minor realm, his speed using the Emperor Artifact Walking Boots was even faster than before.

A streak of black light shot from the distance. Like a bolt of lightning, it plunged from mid-air, heading straight for the small green tree in the valley.

At this, all the red-haired monsters in the valley suddenly flew into an uproar. The Destiny Realm red-haired monsters were the fastest to react, taking to the air one by one to completely surround the Divine Longevity Tree.

Damn it, these red-haired monsters react fast! the annoyed Big Black Cat swore silently, raising his Black Shield and charging forward. His only plan now was to see if he could force an opening, quickly snatch the Divine Element Longevity Fruits, and then make a swift escape.

BOOM!

The Black Shield sent seven or eight red-haired monsters flying, but the Big Black Cat was also thrown back by the impact.

Seeing this approach was futile, Big Black Cat, who always knew when to retreat from a losing fight, spun around and fled. While fleeing, he simultaneously released his Divine Sense to monitor the situation behind him. As expected, a small group of the red-haired monsters roared in fury and gave chase.

Joy surged in Big Black Cat's heart. These red-haired monsters are guarding the Divine Longevity Tree; they definitely won't all come out in pursuit! Now that only a small group has emerged, it's just enough for the six of us to handle!

As Big Black Cat flew rapidly, he sent a telepathic message to Luo Li, telling the Sect Master to prepare.

"Prepare to fight!" Luo Li's expression turned grave as she drew the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword. The Supreme Golden Dragon Sword no longer emitted its usual golden glow, and the Dragon Soul within was very quiet. Luo Li had grown accustomed to this; she knew the Ancient Forefather didn't want her to overly rely on the Divine Sword's power.

"Little Black Cat is clever; this 'luring the snake out of its hole' maneuver is quite slick!" Jun Moxiao remarked with a laugh, watching a streak of black light speeding leisurely towards them, pursued by over a hundred red-haired monsters. He drew his Chaos Element Unlimited Sword. With a slight shake of his shoulders, a Divine Dragon Phantom materialized behind him—the opening stance of the Dragon God Sword Technique.

"Kill!"

Seeing Big Black Cat leading over a hundred red-haired monsters toward them, everyone's spirits lifted. They charged forward, launching into a fierce battle. Nirvana Realm fought Nirvana Realm, Destiny Realm fought Destiny Realm. Mu Qing took charge of eliminating the Destiny Realm red-haired monsters, Big Black Cat provided support, Little Treasure created distractions, while Luo Li and the other two focused on killing the Nirvana Realm red-haired monsters.

The six coordinated with exceptional skill. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they had annihilated all one hundred-odd red-haired monsters.

"This method is great! I'll go lure some more!" Big Black Cat laughed heartily before transforming into a streak of black light and shooting off.

These red-haired monsters were bizarre creatures with low intelligence. Duped once again by Big Black Cat, another group of over a hundred flew over. Working together, the team swiftly dispatched these red-haired monsters as well.

Big Black Cat repeated the tactic, continuously luring red-haired monsters from the valley. After luring them out seven or eight times, they had annihilated nearly a thousand red-haired monsters.

Everyone rested for a while. Big Black Cat then employed the same tactic, luring out more red-haired monsters. In this manner, within a single day, they had slain nearly three thousand red-haired monsters. Although everyone was somewhat fatigued, seeing the number of red-haired monsters steadily decrease filled them with excitement.

After employing this method for three consecutive days, they finally wiped out the majority of the red-haired monsters. Now, only a little over two hundred remained in the valley.

"Sect Master, shall we go finish off the rest in one go?" Big Black Cat suggested excitedly.

"Alright!" Luo Li nodded. Victory was in sight, and her beautiful eyes sparkled with joy.

Everyone quickly flew towards the valley.

WHOOSH!

Suddenly, a streak of golden light shot from another direction in the valley, landing above the Divine Longevity Tree in the center of the valley.

"Golden Winged Roc?" Recognizing the familiar massive bird within the golden light, Big Black Cat's expression changed. Activating his Emperor Artifact Walking Boots, he transformed into a streak of black light and shot upwards. He absolutely could not let the Golden Winged Roc succeed with another sneak attack!
