Qin Han Chu had indeed considered acquiring a low-tier divine artifact as a disguise previously.
However, Qin Han Chu had changed his mind.
It was better to use these divine crystals to purchase cultivation resources.
As for low-tier divine artifacts, there was no need to worry. They could be snatched from other Divine Kings when the opportunity arose.
For instance, the Divine King Elder from today possessed a low-tier divine sword.
If he hadn't submitted, that low-tier divine sword would already be in Qin Han Chu's possession.
Half a month later, at the headquarters of the Ba Hai Gang on Kui Xian Island.
"Help Master, something has happened." A Divine King Elder hurried into the Ba Hai Gang Master's room.
The Ba Hai Gang Master frowned, "What is it?"
"Elder Leng and dozens of True Gods have lost contact. They are likely dead."
"According to previous intelligence, they had already obtained ten Divine Spirit Grasses."
"Elder Leng is a Divine King. The fact that he couldn't send a message before disappearing indicates that the opponent is extremely powerful."
The Ba Hai Gang Master shot up, "What? Elder Leng was also killed?"
"Lost contact, the situation is dire."
The Ba Hai Gang Master was furious. The loss of a Divine King and dozens of True Gods was a significant blow to the Ba Hai Gang.
"Are there any suspects?" the Ba Hai Gang Master raged.
"No targets yet. The opponent's actions were decisive and swift. Our people didn't get any news."
The Ba Hai Gang Master clenched his fist, "Notify everyone. Report any enemy encountered."
"We've been robbed of a lot of Divine Spirit Grass. If this continues, we might not be able to complete the mission for the Shen Xu Sect."
The Ba Hai Gang Master pondered, "We must snatch from other forces. The mission standards of the Shen Xu Sect must be met."
Following the Ba Hai Gang Master's orders, members of the Ba Hai Gang began to gather and intercept.
Qin Han Chu and the other two had obtained a total of fifteen Divine Spirit Grasses. While not a huge amount, it wasn't insignificant either.
They had decided to cease their mission and return to Kui Xian Island.
One day, Qin Han Chu stopped.
"There's an ambush ahead."
Qin Han Chu hadn't sensed anything unusual, but the Sky Splitting Divine Axe had already alerted him.
"It's almost time. They must be here to intercept the Divine Spirit Grass," Baili Cai Xia said.
A Xiang looked at Qin Han Chu, "What do you think?"
"Let's take a detour. We shouldn't create more trouble for now," Qin Han Chu said.
A Xiang nodded, "Alright, we'll listen to the head of the family."
Qin Han Chu chuckled and then led the two in another direction.
"Why did these three leave? Did they discover us?"
"It's very likely."
"They are just three True Gods. How could they sense us?"
The Ba Hai Gang members were all hidden within a divine formation.
Although the divine formation was not of high tier, it was enough to prevent any martial artists below the Divine King realm from detecting them.
Qin Han Chu and the other two were heading towards them, but why did they suddenly stop and leave?
The most plausible reason was that the three had detected them.
"Perhaps they have an artifact to detect divine formations. If only we could obtain it."
Hearing this, the leader of this group's eyes lit up, "Form groups of five and pursue them, surround them."
Under the leader's command, fifteen True Gods immediately chased after Qin Han Chu and the other two.
As soon as they left the divine formation, they were sensed by Qin Han Chu and the other two.
A Xiang said, "They're catching up."
"They're here to court death!" Baili Cai Xia snorted.
Qin Han Chu said, "Find a place to set up a formation. Since they want to die, we'll grant their wish."
A Xiang: "They are taking a detour to intercept. They probably won't give us time to find a location."
"Then we'll set up the formation underwater."
The speed of the three increased, and their pursuers also chased at full speed.
"Go underwater!"
Qin Han Chu swung his sword, directly cleaving a gash in the sea surface beneath them.
As the three plunged into the gash, the surrounding seawater surged back.
"Hmph, do they think they can escape by going underwater?"
The leader snorted and led his men into the water.
At this moment, Qin Han Chu had already set up the Heaven Sealing Divine Formation and the Ten Thousand Sword Slaying Divine Formation in the deep sea.
Besides Ji Huai Rou and the others, Elder Leng of the Ba Hai Gang was also ready.
Even though the opponent was a member of the Ba Hai Gang, Elder Leng would not show any mercy.
His life was in Qin Han Chu's hands. If he betrayed Qin Han Chu, death would await him.
Ji Huai Rou and the others were concealed by the formation, so the Ba Hai Gang members did not detect their presence.
Seeing Qin Han Chu and the other two stop underwater, they gradually surrounded them.
"Which faction do you belong to?" the leader inquired.
Qin Han Chu: "Why should I answer you?"
"If you tell us your affiliation, perhaps you can leave safely."
"If you don't, we will consider you rogue cultivators without any backing."
"Don't blame us for being impolite then."
The leader said coldly.
Baili Cai Xia mockingly said, "We are from the Ba Hai Gang."
"How dare you lie to us? You're seeking death!"
If it weren't for regulations from above, the leader would have already given the order to attack.
Upon hearing Baili Cai Xia's provocation, the leader immediately lost his patience.
The moment they attacked, Ji Huai Rou and the others also activated their formations.
It was only then that these people realized something was amiss.
As the Heaven Sealing Divine Formation enveloped them, Elder Leng, wielding a low-tier divine artifact, charged towards the Ba Hai Gang members.
"Elder Leng, how can you..."
"He betrayed the Ba Hai Gang!"
"Damn it, quickly send a message for reinforcements."
"Contact with the outside world has been severed."
"It's over!"
Elder Leng's appearance startled the Ba Hai Gang members into panic.
With Elder Leng's attack, the Ten Thousand Sword Slaying Divine Formation appeared.
With one Divine King and a Divine Emperor tier divine formation, these fifteen people had no chance to resist.
In less than ten minutes, all fifteen of them were killed.
During this time, several True Gods attempted to surrender, but Qin Han Chu was indifferent to the combat power of True Gods and paid them no heed.
After inventorying the spoils of war, the trio gained another two Divine Spirit Grasses.
In addition to the Divine Spirit Grass, Qin Han Chu also acquired over ten thousand divine crystals and some low-tier resources from the divine realm.
Although the leader did not ascertain Qin Han Chu's background, he did relay the basic information of the trio to his superiors.
This included their appearance and images.
With the deaths of these fifteen individuals, the Ba Hai Gang immediately identified the trio using their images.
"Help Master, we have lost fifteen True Gods again."
"But this time, we have the information of the culprits."
A Divine King Elder rushed to find the Ba Hai Gang Master, presenting the portraits of Qin Han Chu and the other two.
"Three people?" the Ba Hai Gang Master asked, surprised.
"These three should just be decoys. They are responsible for luring our people into the encirclement."
The Ba Hai Gang Master nodded, "That makes sense. Immediately send people to investigate the identities of these three. I want their details."
The Qin Han Chu family was unaware that their information had been exposed. As soon as they returned to Kui Xian Island, they were spotted by scouts from the Ba Hai Gang.
