Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

Chapter 305 Misty Forest

then.

Ling Yun, Qin Feng, Chu Yao, and the envoy from Dongling Kingdom each activated the power of their national treasures.

The four forces gradually merged together, forming a powerful light.

"It's now!"

Ling Yun shouted, and everyone unleashed their combined power towards the Black Hole Saint King.

The light, like a sharp sword, pierced through the dark power and struck the Black Hole Saint.

The Black Hole Saint King let out a scream as cracks began to appear on his body, and the dark power gradually dissipated.

But he was still unwilling to accept defeat and fought back with all his might.

At this moment, the soldiers of the four countries also launched their attacks, and their courage and strength inspired everyone present.

With everyone's combined efforts, the Black Hole Saint King finally couldn't hold on any longer, and his body collapsed into nothingness.

With the destruction of the Black Hole Saint King, the dark aura of the Dark Abyss gradually dissipated.

Ling Yun stared at Qin Feng and Lin Ximeng, asking incredulously, "We really destroyed the Black Hole Saint King just like that?"

"Of course not!" Qin Feng affirmed, then added, "What we destroyed was merely the clone left behind by the Black Hole Saint Monarch in the Dark Abyss. To completely eliminate the Black Hole Saint Monarch, we must enter the Black Hole Universe and destroy his true form."

Lin Ximeng reminded Lingyun, "Sister Lingyun, I gained a great deal from this deep dive into the Dark Abyss."

"What did you find?" Ling Yun asked curiously.

"I know a way to completely eliminate the Black Hole Saint King," Lin Ximeng said frankly.

"Oh? What's the method? Tell us quickly!" Ling Yun and Qin Feng looked on expectantly.

Lin Ximeng replied, "That means gathering the cosmic treasures from various universes and combining the power of the entire interstellar universe. We will definitely be able to completely destroy the Black Hole Saint King!"

Ling Yun frowned upon hearing this.

"But the Cosmic Treasure within Neptune has already been taken by the Black Hole Saint King. Moreover, Qin Feng and I have traveled the universe for so long, and we've only found one Cosmic Treasure on Neptune. Collecting all the Cosmic Treasures is simply a pipe dream. Besides, we have no idea how many Cosmic Treasures exist in the entire interstellar universe!"

Lin Ximeng smiled slightly and reminded Ling Yun, "Sister Ling Yun, it's actually very simple. In every universe, there exists a Universe Heart, and each Universe Heart is bound to a divine artifact or magical treasure that protects that universe."

"We can obtain a new Cosmic Treasure by fusing together the divine artifacts bound to the Heart of the Universe in each universe."

Then, Lin Ximeng gave an example.

"For example, the Primordial Treasure in the Dark Abyss. We only need to find a master craftsman to fuse the four national treasures together to obtain a new Primordial Treasure."

"With this Cosmic Essence Treasure, we will surely be able to break the seal that the Black Hole Saint King set up outside the Dark Abyss. Then, by following the same method, we can obtain more Cosmic Essence Treasures."

Lingyun thought it was very reliable.

"That's it!"

Then she asked another question.

"But where can we find a master weapon refiner?"

Immediately afterwards, Ling Yun and the other two turned their attention to Princess Chu Yao of the Western Ling Kingdom.

Chu Yao quickly waved her hands: "Don't look at me! This princess doesn't know how to forge weapons!"

At this moment, the envoy from the Eastern Spirit Kingdom stepped forward and said, "There is a very dangerous place within the territory of our Eastern Spirit Kingdom, called the Misty Forest. In the heart of the Misty Forest lives a master craftsman named Gongshu No. 7. If you are not afraid of the danger, you may venture into the Misty Forest."

Ling Yun made his decision without the slightest hesitation.

“Alright, let’s head to the Misty Forest now. However, we must keep these four national treasures with us at all times to avoid wasting time. So we’ll need your help to explain things to the Southern Spirit Kingdom.”

The envoy from Dongling Kingdom said, "I will handle this matter."

Chu Yao requested, "I want to go to the Misty Forest with you."

Ling Yun initially wanted to refuse her.

But when he thought about her status as a princess and the possibility that she might be of some help along the way, he agreed.

"Okay. You can come with us."

After Ling Yun agreed, he immediately put forward another condition: "Could you first send an army to scout out the way for us in the Misty Forest?"

"Of course!" Chu Yao agreed without hesitation. "Don't worry, I'll send a message to General Chu right away and have him lead the army to help us clear the outer obstacles!"

Unexpectedly, Chu Yao's proposal was met with strong opposition from the envoy of the Eastern Spirit Kingdom.

"No!" said the envoy from Dongling Kingdom. "Not a single soldier from Xiling Kingdom is allowed to set foot on Dongling Kingdom's territory, otherwise it would be tantamount to declaring war on Dongling Kingdom. Your Highness, Princess of Xiling Kingdom, do you intend to provoke a war between our two countries?"

Chu Yao hurriedly waved her hand.

"Embassy of Dongling Kingdom, you know that this princess did not mean what you say. It's just that the situation is critical, and this is the best solution. Can't your Dongling Kingdom be a little more accommodating?"

The envoy from Dongling Kingdom refused again.

"Issues involving national sovereignty and territory are never negotiable."

"Alright!" Ling Yun said impatiently. "Stop arguing, you two. Since the Eastern Spirit Kingdom doesn't allow it, then forget it. I reckon that with our combined strength, venturing into a small Misty Forest shouldn't be a problem. Without further ado, let's set off immediately."

Say it.

Ling Yun then led his group into the Misty Forest.

On the road.

The envoy from Dongling Kingdom said to Ling Yun, "Although Dongling Kingdom soldiers cannot enter the Misty Forest, our Dongling Kingdom soldiers can. I have received a message from my Dongling Kingdom Emperor that His Majesty has sent people to the Misty Forest to clear the initial obstacles for us."

Ling Yun's lips curled up slightly. "Then thank you very much, Your Majesty the Emperor of Dongling Kingdom."

Half a month later.

Lingyun and his group finally arrived at the outer edge of the Misty Forest.

Looking out, one could see a thick, inky fog swirling and spreading through the forest, like a heavy curtain that completely covered the interior of the forest.

A sinister aura emanated from the mist, as if warning everyone of the danger lurking within.

Stepping into the forest, the ground beneath your feet is soft and damp, with a thick layer of fallen leaves piled up. With each step, you can feel the soles of your shoes sinking into them, making a "plop plop" sound.

The surrounding trees were tall and twisted, their thick trunks covered with dark green moss, their branches intertwined and blocking out the sun, making the interior of the forest exceptionally dark.

Occasionally, a few rays of sunlight would struggle to filter through the gaps in the branches and leaves, forming golden beams of light, which only served to accentuate the eeriness of the surroundings.

"Everyone be careful, this misty forest is indeed eerie," Ling Yun said in a low voice, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily.

Everyone gripped their weapons tightly and moved forward cautiously.
