Chapter 544: The Ancient Fairy and the Eonic Ragarwood Tree of the Southern Region
Standing on top of the clouds, Jian Wang and Jiu Shen watched the battle using their spiritual perception.
Jian Wang stared at the indifferent Jiu Shen and asked him. "Are you really not going to help them?"
The Heavenly Sword Tower might be strong with the help of Ai Chen\'s Heavenly Melody Pavilion and Ri Kushou\'s Armored Wyvern Army, but the Celestial Paragon Tower led by Valir and Telu was not an easy opponent.
Jiu Shen was still calmly observing the fight down below as he replied. "No. I trust that they can overcome the Celestial Paragon Tower. Besides, I have an important place to visit..."
Jian Wang\'s eyes narrowed upon hearing his words. "You mean... You want to fight him alone?!"
He was shocked when he realized Jiu Shen\'s intention. Even Jian Wang didn\'t dare underestimate the current Lao Gou. After all, he possesses the Celestial-rank item of Hestia\'s race, the God Sealing Tower!
Jian Wang was unsure if he could escape the sealing power of that item.
Jiu Shen\'s eyes suddenly turned cold as he muttered with overwhelming killing intent. "I have to kill him!"
Jian Wang almost grabbed his sword when he sensed Jiu Shen\'s desire to kill. It was merely a subconscious reaction, but he was stunned that Jiu Shen could make him feel this threatened.
\'It looks like he wasn\'t lying when he told me that he is stronger than me...\' Jian Wang thought to himself.
Jian Wang relaxed his tension and asked. "Are you confident that you can defeat him?"
Jiu Shen chuckled coldly as he turned his gaze towards him. "You\'ll find out soon."
Jian Wang was at loss for words. Before he could say anything more, Jiu Shen\'s figure suddenly vanished.
Sigh!
"I wish you luck, my friend..." Jian Wang whispered softly.

Lao Gou sat on his throne as he watched the battle between the Celestial Paragon Tower\'s army and the Heavenly Sword Tower through a Visual Array Formation. He kept his sights on a cold-faced blonde woman.
Her sword techniques were familiar to him. Her mannerism, the way she moves, the intense frostiness in her gaze.
Everything was familiar to him.
Lao sat up straight as a thought struck him. "Theia..." He muttered a name.
His eyes revealed a hint of affection, but it soon turned into rage and malice. "That fucking slut has been reborn as well! Good! Good! Good!"
Lao Gou laughed hideously as he watched Theia in the virtual projection. Hate covered his eyes as he recalled the memories of the past. He took out his communication crystal and said. "Capture the blonde-haired woman leading the Heavenly Sword Tower alive! Make sure that her body isn\'t harmed or I\'ll kill all of you!"
"Y-Yes, Celestial Emperor!" A terrified voice sounded through the crystal.
Lao Gou crushed the communication crystal and smiled eerily. "First, I will incapacitate Jiu Shen and defile that slut in front of him! I wonder what kind of lovely reaction he would show me by then! Hahaha!"
His perverse laughter echoed inside the huge room.

Jiu Shen controlled the power of space with great familiarity. The distance between the Central Region and the Desert Region was vast, but it wouldn\'t take him long to reach that place with his current power.
The space around him cracked as he increased his speed.
Jiu Shen repressed his killing intent. He might be consumed by a strong Heart\'s Devil if he allowed his killing intent to cloud his judgment. The stronger a person was, the stronger their Heart\'s Devil would be.
"Lao Gou\'s spear arts has already reached the strongest levels. His fighting prowess might be weaker compared to Jian Wang\'s, but with the help of the God Sealing Tower, even Jian Wang would have to retreat." Jiu Shen calmly analyzed Lao Gou\'s power using his last memory of him.
"Among the four Celestials that I\'ve encountered, Wuka is at the early stage. Asmodeus is at the mid stage, but his refined control of Array Formations would make him equal to a late stage Celestial. As for Lao Gou and Jian Wang, they are at the late stage Celestial God Realm just like me."
While Jiu Shen was thinking about Lao Gou\'s power, his field of view changed. He saw a vast mountain range filled with lush greeneries and tall massive trees. He had reached the outskirts of the Southern Region.
This place was the territory of many Elven Races and Forest Druids. This area was quite dangerous even for top experts, but it didn\'t pose a threat to Jiu Shen.
Jiu Shen suddenly frowned as he stared ahead of him. "A member of the Ancient Fairies..." He muttered as he stared at the figure sitting atop a branch of a huge tree that pierced the clouds.
This tree was the only mature Eonic Ragarwood Tree in existence! (Its branch was the main component used in making the door of Jiu Shen\'s Spirit World)
Jiu Shen slowed down his flight speed and stopped before the Eonic Ragarwood Tree. He glanced at the blurry silhouette hidden behind the leaves of the gigantic tree.
A burst of alluring laughter suddenly drifted to Jiu Shen\'s ears. It was followed by an enchanting voice that could even ensnare the hearts of gods. "The Eonic Ragarwood Tree is apprehensive of your power. It only showed this kind of reaction when Celestial Emperor Lao Gou forced us to give him a seed of the Eonic Ragarwood Tree and a huge amount of Undying God Spring."
She was silent for a moment before she continued. "You must be a Celestial just like him. You have a murderous sword aura around you, but Jian Wang\'s sword aura isn\'t similar to yours. Asmodeus also doesn\'t use a sword. That means you are a fourth Celestial..."
For some reason, Jiu Shen could sense that the blurry figure was smiling.
"I don\'t have time to waste on you. Stay out of my way." Jiu Shen muttered calmly, but he was also shocked when he discovered the other party\'s power. He had underestimated the hidden powers of the Primordial God Realm. There actually exists an expert who was at the level of the Celestial Emperors hidden in this region!
The blurry figure didn\'t seem to be afraid of him. She moved closer to Jiu Shen and slowly revealed her true form.
She was a woman in her mid-twenties with long snow-white hair. She had three pairs of transparent golden wings. Thin blue clothing covered her body, but it could barely hide her bewitching figure.
She smiled and her long white eyelashes fluttered as she kept her gaze towards Jiu Shen.
