Facing the sect's summons, no one dared to be negligent.
Within half an hour, the new disciples of this generation had gathered.
Just then, the Azure Moon Goddess reappeared.
With a wave of her hand, numerous clusters of light flew towards the people in the field.
Qin Hanchu reached out and caught one, and a storage divine artifact appeared in his hand.
"The other resources can be yours, but the Desolate Domain Divine Crystals must be placed in this specialized storage artifact."
"After you return, the sect will grant you certain rewards based on the number of Desolate Domain Divine Crystals you possess."
"If anyone obtains a thousand Desolate Domain Divine Crystals, the sect will additionally reward them with a top-tier divine artifact."
The Azure Moon Goddess spoke from the void.
"A thousand Desolate Domain Divine Crystals for an extra top-tier divine artifact?"
"What's the difference between these Desolate Domain Divine Crystals and ordinary divine crystals?"
"We'll find out when we get them."
"The fact that a thousand crystals earn an additional reward shows how rare these Desolate Domain Divine Crystals are."
"I heard that divine venerables from other ancestral forces will also be competing for them. Just surviving the return is good enough."
The Azure Moon Goddess ignored the murmurs of the crowd and sternly declared, "The Desolate Domain Divine Crystals are of utmost importance to the sect. Anyone found hoarding them will be punished most severely."
Rumble...
As soon as the Azure Moon Goddess finished speaking, a massive teleportation array suddenly appeared in the sky.
"The storage artifact not only stores Desolate Domain Divine Crystals but also serves as your token for return."
"Remember not to place them in any other storage artifact, or you will be trapped in the Desolate Domain."
"The Desolate Domain only has a few hundred years of safety. Once that time passes, even a Divine Emperor will perish within."
"The teleportation is about to begin. Good luck to you all."
The Azure Moon Goddess suddenly vanished, and a terrifying suction force enveloped Qin Hanchu and the others.
Qin Hanchu held Ah Xiang's hand to avoid being separated by the teleportation array.
Whoosh...
Qin Hanchu and the others transformed into streaks of light, drawn into the teleportation array, and then disappeared one after another.
The Desolate Domain is a perilous place within the Divine Realm, not a separate world.
Being able to teleport such a long distance must mean an ancestor-level expert is powering the formation.
In the colorful teleportation channel, everyone dared not move recklessly.
Any action taken here would undoubtedly disrupt the teleportation channel.
Under the tearing force of spacetime, a Divine Venerable realm cultivator would be instantly torn apart.
Even with the teleportation array, it took Qin Hanchu and the others several hours to arrive.
Rumble...
Qin Hanchu and the others felt as if they were stones flung from a catapult; they were violently hurled out.
Fortunately, Qin Hanchu and Ah Xiang held hands tightly, otherwise, they would have been thrown to different locations.
"Let's go!"
As soon as they stabilized themselves, Qin Hanchu pulled Ah Xiang and flew towards the distance.
Due to the Five Elements Divine Banner, many people in the Ancient Dao Academy wanted to kill him.
If they didn't hurry and leave this place, they might be cornered.
Once they broke free from the encirclement, Qin Hanchu would no longer fear these people.
Anyone who dared to snatch would be killed!
Zhan Kuanghu, Gu Tianyi, and others wanted to pursue Qin Hanchu and Ah Xiang.
However, the two were too far ahead, and they couldn't catch up.
Moreover, Qin Hanchu's Five Elements Divine Banner possessed teleportation abilities, allowing them to instantly cover great distances.
"The Desolate Domain is so perilous; the two of them running around is simply courting death," Zhan Kuanghu snorted coldly.
"Hurry up and rendezvous with the others. Let's try to find more Desolate Domain Divine Crystals."
There were strong factional disputes within the Ancient Dao Academy. For rogue cultivators to get by, they had to join one of these factions.
Even Tianmu Divine Venerable had already chosen Hua Qiuyu's faction.
Although Hua Qiuyu's strength was inferior to Gu Tianyi and others, the forces behind her were the strongest lineage within the Ancient Dao Academy.
Those like Qin Hanchu and Ah Xiang, who did not seek to join any factions, were considered outliers.
These factions converged, with each faction having over twenty people.
Gathering so many people together indeed provided greater safety.
Individuals like Qin Hanchu and Ah Xiang were undoubtedly like stray little lambs.
Moving away from the main group, Qin Hanchu directly summoned the Divine Sea Gang Leader and the others.
In this way, they also became a sizable group of over twenty people.
"Let's change our appearances. We won't use our previous identities."
In the upcoming battles, Qin Hanchu would try his best not to use the Five Elements Divine Banner.
With the Azure Moon Goddess not present, he could fight with the Divine Blood Battle Spear.
Even if this matter reached the Azure Moon Goddess's ears, she wouldn't suspect Qin Hanchu.
"Be careful. Everything here can be dangerous."
"Even stones might possess lethal power."
There were no native divine beasts in the Desolate Domain, but some of the flora and fauna here possessed terrifying power.
Under Qin Hanchu's leadership, the group flew towards the distance together.
"Divine Emperor level divine medicine, and three of them together!"
After flying for a short while, Ah Xiang pointed into the distance and exclaimed in surprise.
"Fire Jade Divine Leaf Grass, the main ingredient for refining the Ascension Creation Pill!"
These three divine medicines had already matured, so they only emitted a faint glow.
"I'll go collect them!" The Overlord Sea Gang Leader stepped forward.
Qin Hanchu did not stop him and said, "Be careful. We'll cover you."
The Overlord Sea Gang Leader nodded and flew towards the three divine medicines.
Qin Hanchu took out the Divine Blood Battle Spear. If there was danger, he would immediately intervene.
As soon as the Overlord Sea Gang Leader landed, the surrounding trees suddenly erupted with blood-red light.
Immediately after, dozens of vines transformed into sharp lances and thrust towards the Overlord Sea Gang Leader.
The Overlord Sea Gang Leader had been vigilant of his surroundings. Sensing the danger, he immediately retreated.
Qin Hanchu and the others attacked in succession, their divine skills slashing at the vines.
Amidst the rumbling sounds, these vines were successively shattered.
The Overlord Sea Gang Leader returned to Qin Hanchu's side, still shaken.
The power of those vines was formidable. If Qin Hanchu and the others hadn't attacked together, it would have been difficult for the Overlord Sea Gang Leader to escape so easily.
"Each vine possesses the peak power of a Divine Venerable realm."
"Let's cut down these trees!"
Saying this, Qin Hanchu brandished the Divine Blood Battle Spear and slashed at one of the giant trees.
Ah Xiang and the others also attacked, unleashing terrifying power towards the giant trees that had attacked the Overlord Sea Gang Leader.
Whoosh...
Just then, thousands of vines surged towards Qin Hanchu and the others.
These demon trees began to counterattack!
Although the demon trees were powerful, Qin Hanchu and the others' attacks were even stronger.
After repeated confrontations, these demon trees were gradually suppressed.
Just as Qin Hanchu and the others were about to kill them, these demon trees unexpectedly transformed into green light and burrowed into the ground.
"They escaped?"
"These fellows are quite troublesome. Send a few more people to collect the Fire Jade Divine Leaf Grass!"
Qin Hanchu did not want his people to suffer any losses, so he arranged for six people to collect the divine medicine together.
Whoosh...
Just then, the three divine medicines suddenly flew towards the distance.
