Before long, a tremor emerged within the Green Light, creating an opening in the southwest direction, and a straight green light flew toward that direction.

Gu Mei put away the handbell and looked at Xiao Mu, "Southwest, one hundred and seventy kilometers away, there is a Mutated Being of the Heavenly Court carrying the treasures of the Prefect."

"Very good!"

Xiao Mu spoke, and immediately, his body transformed into a Five-Color Light Spectrum, fleeing directly toward the southwest.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Gu Mei gritted her teeth, seeing Xiao Mu escaping, hurriedly resorted to the Escape Art to chase after him.

※※※

"It's a pity, Bai Jing's treasure attracts too many competitors; I'm too far away. Besides some materials, I only obtained a damaged ancient treasure, and since it's damaged, I can't use it."

A man in green, about one hundred and seventy kilometers southwest of Xiao Mu, murmured to himself while escaping, his expression full of regret, "I wonder what my brother got. At that time, he was much closer to Bai Jing's treasury than I was."

"Perhaps, he made a major gain; maybe he even acquired a complete Divine Treasure. Haha! I should contact him; maybe I can get a Divine Treasure from him. This could vastly increase my power."

As he spoke, he took out a dark black talisman and gently pressed it.

Boom!

With a loud noise, a Golden Light descended from the sky, instantly transforming into a golden hammer, which slammed onto the green-robed man's head with a bang.

Blood Light splattered, and the violent energy surged, evaporating the Blood Light in an instant.

The green-robed man died without even a scream, his corpse falling to the ground.

One person revealed themselves, and with a light wave toward the green-robed man's corpse, a Storage Box flew out from the body and fell into this person's hand.

"How strong! Xiao Mu, your strength is far beyond my expectations. Although this green-robed man wasn't a master, he was still at the Peak of the Divine Spirit Realm, yet he was killed with a single strike when he met you."

Within the Five-color Escape Light, Gu Mei revealed herself, speaking to Xiao Mu with a sense of surprise and admiration.

"It was merely because this man's power was too low. I can kill those at the True God Realm, let alone the mere Divine Spirit Realm."

Xiao Mu dismissed it lightly, "Never mind him. Let's see what treasure this person gained from the Prefect's Treasury."

Changing the subject, Xiao Mu took the Storage Box, opened it casually, and then smiled, "Looks like I made a good haul!"

Inside the Storage Box lay three fist-sized blocks of golden-colored material and a heavily damaged flower basket-shaped ancient treasure.

And those golden-colored block materials were undoubtedly Falling Phoenix Gold, from ancient times, used to forge Divine Weapons and Divine Treasures. It's also one of the key materials Xiao Mu needed to repair the Blood Cloud Flag.

The flower basket-shaped ancient treasure was very severely damaged, with at least half of it missing.

Xiao Mu picked up this flower basket-shaped ancient treasure and, upon closely examining it, discovered that the main material used to craft the basket's main body was actually Thousand Mountains Bronze, which delighted him.

This flower basket-shaped ancient treasure is difficult to repair. Perhaps it can be dismantled and its main material used to repair the Blood Cloud Flag.

"Gu Mei, now, I need to repair a treasure. If you want to follow, just don't disturb me."

He said, employing the Escape Art, and fled directly eastward.

Gu Mei, without hesitation, deployed the Escape Art to follow.

Bang!

A middle-aged man, somewhat resembling the previous green-robed man, flushed with rage, suddenly extended his right hand and slapped the ground furiously.

Amidst the thunderous rumbling, black light flared up as True Force struck the ground, blasting a massive pit dozens of feet in diameter on the ground.

"Damn it, Xiao Mu actually killed my brother to seize the treasure, truly detestable!"

The middle-aged man cursed as he removed a dark golden seal from beside his ear.

"What? Liang Kuang, your brother was killed by Xiao Mu?"

Several Heavenly Court Mutated Beings gathered around, with some showing gloomy faces and others revealing expressions of delight.

The middle-aged man, Liang Kuang, nodded with bitterness, "Damn it, Xiao Mu killed my brother. We should kill humans to even the score. For each brother he kills, we kill ten of his kind. Xiang Quan, use your method to search if there are any human Mutated Beings nearby. Gan Ming, notify Respected Envoy Wu Ying that Xiao Mu has appeared three hundred seventy kilometers to the southeast."

※※※

Xiao Mu, having fled for a while, suddenly stopped in his tracks, softly calling out, "Great Decree, come forth, pave the way!"

The supreme notion of the Heavenly Emperor struck the ground, making the earth seemingly intangible, and Xiao Mu's body directly sunk into the underground.

Seeing this, Gu Mei, who was closely following, turned a bit displeased.

No way, is Xiao Mu actually guarding against me? Does he really think I would spy on him repairing a treasure?

Humph!

Gu Mei snorted angrily, not following further. Instead, she sat on an exposed root of a large tree nearby, waiting for Xiao Mu to come out.

Evidently, Xiao Mu wasn't guarding against Gu Mei, but the process of repairing the Blood Cloud Flag involved too many complexities, making it inconvenient for others to watch.

Using the Great Decree, after advancing roughly seven to eight miles underground, Xiao Mu stopped, took out the Blood Cloud Flag, and began the repair.

Revisiting the repair techniques from the secret manual, Xiao Mu took out the three blocks of Falling Phoenix Gold and the flower basket ancient treasure, placing them to his left.

Then he took out the Blood Cloud Flag and placed it to his right.

At this moment, Xiao Mu picked up the damaged flower basket ancient treasure, forming hand seals against it casually.

The surface of the flower basket ancient treasure burst with dark yellow brilliance.

This brilliance was power, the energy stored within the flower basket ancient treasure, and Xiao Mu's technique was merely to release this energy.

Once the energy was released, the flower basket ancient treasure could be dismantled.

By that time, since all the energy was released, dismantling the flower basket ancient treasure would become much easier.

The dark yellow brilliance emitted from the flower basket ancient treasure lasted roughly half an hour.

After half an hour, when the energy was fully released, Xiao Mu again formed hand seals against the flower basket ancient treasure.

With a clattering sound, the flower basket ancient treasure directly fell apart, various materials dropping to the ground.

Choosing among the fallen materials, Xiao Mu quickly picked out the Thousand Mountains Bronze material, gathering a total of seven pieces.

Of course, these seven pieces of Thousand Mountains Bronze were quite small, incomparable in size to the three fist-sized blocks of Falling Phoenix Gold.

Placing the seven chunks of Thousand Mountains Bronze together with the three blocks of Falling Phoenix Gold, Xiao Mu picked up the Blood Cloud Flag.

Chop!

With a shout, a True Force sprayed directly from Xiao Mu's mouth, absorbed by the Blood Cloud Flag.

The Blood Cloud Flag, absorbing the True Force, immediately rose and hovered in mid-air.

"Rise!"

Xiao Mu gestured toward the Thousand Mountains Bronze and Falling Phoenix Gold materials, which then began to float, revolving around the Blood Cloud Flag.

Rumble! Rumble!

Simultaneously forming hand seals, Xiao Mu suddenly struck the Blood Cloud Flag with the seals.

Immediately, the Blood Cloud Flag shone brightly, emitting rays of Blood Light.

Amidst the Blood Light, a suction force suddenly came from within the Blood Cloud Flag.

This suction force split into ten, extending ten blood-colored rays of light from the Blood Cloud Flag, reaching toward the ten materials.

Ultimately, with ten soft puffs, the ten blood-colored light rays from within the Blood Cloud Flag attached themselves to the ten materials.

All ten materials, whether they were Thousand Mountains Bronze or Falling Phoenix Gold, began to emit brilliance upon being touched by the blood-colored light rays.

However, this brilliance was directly absorbed into the Blood Cloud Flag along the blood-colored light rays.

As the brilliance was absorbed, the ten materials gradually dimmed.

Meanwhile, the Blood Cloud Flag, replenished from the materials, emitted an even more intense and vivid Blood Light.
