Smack!

Xiao Mu's figure shattered under the blow of the gray-white hammer.

A decoy!

Chao Xiong was taken aback, then immediately realized what had happened, and was furious.

Xiao Mu had used the Changeable Divine Technique in advance to switch between his true and false selves. So when Chao Xiong used the Destiny Array to reverse time and forced Xiao Mu to return, Xiao Mu took the opportunity to switch and escape.

In his anger, Chao Xiong immediately scanned the surroundings, searching for Xiao Mu's tracks.

In the southwest direction, several miles away, Xiao Mu replaced the decoy with his true self and took out the Creation Axe, swinging it towards himself.

Crack!

White light flashed, and his figure vanished instantly.

"Damn it!"

When Chao Xiong rode the clouds and pursued, Xiao Mu had already left, causing Chao Xiong's hurried strike with the gray-white hammer to hit nothing but air.

※※※

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

After leaving, Xiao Mu immediately used the Emperor Authority, manifesting a golden glow that enveloped himself, hiding his trail. Meanwhile, he employed the Escape Art to swiftly move toward Blood Valley.

※※※

"Xiao Mu's power is too strong, too astonishing. He took on Feng Ping's group from the Heavenly Court all by himself!"

Huang Luo looked at the illusion forming in the green light, with wide eyes.

Previously, he never thought that the so-called Huang Yuan, Yan Qingxu, and Zhao Yaogu were all forms of Xiao Mu.

And Xiao Mu's strength was just too formidable; he handled Feng Ping's entire group from the Heavenly Court by himself.

Chen Ming wiped the green light with a sullen face, causing the illusion to disappear along with it.

The overwhelming strength Xiao Mu displayed posed a significant threat to him. As long as Xiao Mu existed, the first merit would never be his.

Contemplating with a gloomy expression for a moment, he suddenly said to Huang Luo, "Huang Luo, use the All Star Chart to investigate carefully where Xiao Mu has fled to."

"Yes!"

※※※

Smack!

A Destiny Talisman suddenly shattered in Chao Xiong's hand, and the Power of Destiny spread in all directions, soon conveying information to all Heavenly Court Mutated Beings in the Wu Yun Pass Domain, especially He Qun, Gold Spirit God, and Feng Ping.

He needed to gather forces to meticulously search for Xiao Mu's whereabouts.

Xiao Mu posed too great a threat, and even Chao Xiong felt the danger now. He had to be eradicated quickly, or it would become a major threat sooner or later.

※※※

"Respected Envoy Chao has summoned us, Gold Spirit God. Let's quickly regroup!"

In the southwest direction, He Qun and the Gold Spirit God, upon receiving Chao Xiong's summons, immediately rode clouds and mist to rush there.

"Respected Envoy Chao has summoned us, all right, everyone, no more escape. Xiao Mu has been driven away by Respected Envoy Chao; let's return."

In the east direction, Feng Ping, who had been driven away by Xiao Mu, also stopped his Blood Escape Technique and turned back.

※※※

Xiao Mu's escape speed was extremely fast, pushing the Five Elements Escaping Technique to its limit. Using the Creation Axe occasionally, in combination with the teleportation powers of the Creation Power and the Five Elements Escaping Technique, he finally returned to Blood Valley.

Upon returning to Blood Valley, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The blood ability of Blood Valley could conceal his aura, and once he entered Blood Valley, Chao Xiong shouldn't be able to find him anymore.

Following this, he thought of the gains from this trip and couldn't help but smile.

This time, the amount of Mutated Beings from the Heavenly Court he killed was secondary. The key was that he obtained a large number of treasures from the Treasury of Qin Guang and other Heavenly Court Mutated Beings.

These treasures included important ancient materials that would allow him to continue repairing the Blood Cloud Flag.

"I wonder how much ancient material I collected this time, whether it's enough for the Blood Cloud Flag's third Variant."

Xiao Mu couldn't be bothered to tally up his gains, his thoughts racing as he continued moving into the depths of Blood Valley.

However, not long after, he suddenly halted his Escape Light, pausing his steps.

The blood ability of Blood Valley could indeed conceal an aura, but that didn't mean Chao Xiong would never find this place.

This Blood Valley was not some secret place; many Mutated Beings from the Heavenly Court, and even the human world, knew of it.

If Chao Xiong couldn't find his tracks elsewhere, would he explore Blood Valley?

If Chao Xiong did enter Blood Valley to explore, and he was unprepared, wouldn't it be...?

A shiver ran down Xiao Mu's spine, unable to imagine such a result.

Chao Xiong was a powerful being within the Fate System, a strength infinitely close to the True Gods.

With such a level of powerhouse, if he, like before, used the Power of Destiny to mask himself, and Xiao Mu was unprepared, he might indeed be killed.

With this in mind, Xiao Mu immediately became cautious.

Chao Xiong could arrive at any moment, and even if he didn't, Xiao Mu needed to prepare for the worst.

Let's set up a Great Array at the valley's mouth, mask it with Creation Power once it's in place. This way, if Chao Xiong enters Blood Valley, the Great Array will be triggered.

If I can detect it in time and respond promptly, I won't be caught off guard by Chao Xiong.

Not delaying further, Xiao Mu began setting up immediately, taking out four Golden Array Talismans and tossing them in four directions at the valley's mouth.

The four talismans sank into the ground, instantly sealing the mouth of Blood Valley, ensuring that anyone passing through the valley's mouth would trigger the Great Array, alerting Xiao Mu.

With the Great Array set up, Xiao Mu took out the Creation Axe and struck towards the array.

Crack!

The brilliance of Creation flashed, directly entering the array, causing it to vanish from detection.

Putting away the Creation Axe, Xiao Mu headed further into Blood Valley at ease.

Not long after, at the end of Blood Valley, near the cliff's edge, and close to the space rift.

Xiao Mu sat down cross-legged, taking out storage boxes one by one to inspect their contents.
