"General Camila, are we really going to let that kid from the Wala Tribe go just like that?" After the group from the Black Gold Insect Tribe left, one of the Insect Venerables gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes, it was hard to encounter them here, and we had such a chance, it would have been perfect to teach them a lesson."
"We can refrain from taking action, but I carefully sensed the person beside Ci Tianqiong earlier, and his appearance and aura don't seem like someone from the Death Demon Tribe. Could it be that the Wala Insect Tribe has pledged allegiance to another tribe? Serving two masters is taboo. If we pass this information to the Death Demon Tribe, their Lord will definitely kill them."
Several of the Insect Venerables spoke coldly.
"Shut up," Camila of the Black Gold Insect Tribe said with a deep gaze. "Don't forget our purpose here. This time, our Black Gold Insect Tribe has gained a lot, so let's not create extra problems. We will deal with that kid from the Wala Tribe when the opportunity arises. For now, keep a low profile. After all, this is our first time at this black market, so let's not cause trouble."
Camila narrowed his eyes.
It was also the first time for their Black Gold Insect Tribe at this black market. They came here after annihilating a battalion of the Druid Tribe, gaining a large amount of merit and several treasures, including a significant treasure of the Druid Tribe.
If it were only merit, they could exchange it within the Demon Tribe Alliance. However, they didn't want to exchange these treasures with the Demon Tribe Alliance, nor did they want their superiors in the Death Demon Tribe to know about them.
Because they knew that once the news of these treasures leaked, they wouldn't get their share. That's why they came to this black market, hoping to sell the treasures at the black market's trade fair.
They approached earlier, deliberately provoking Ci Tianqiong, their old rival from the Wala Tribe. They dared not actually make a move at the black market.
"Lord, sorry to make you witness such a scene."
On the starship, the stone statue puppet ferryman rowed, and the starship swiftly cut through the waves, leaving the shore and sailing into the endless star river.
"No problem," Qin Chen waved his hand, his senses completely immersed in this Phantom Star River.
Without entering the Phantom Star River, one could never know its vastness. The endless dark power surged, chilling to the bone, creating the illusion of being in the depths of hell.
Qin Chen, mastering the rules of death, was extremely sensitive to the force of death. He clearly felt stars floating and sinking in this Phantom Star River. Beneath these stars, in the seawater, an overwhelming aura of death permeated, chilling to the core, almost freezing his soul.
It indeed seemed like a force transmitted from the Netherworld.
At this moment, Qin Chen finally understood why this ship was called a starship.
The starship swayed like a small boat, emitting starlight that was very conspicuous in the dark Phantom Star River. The power emitted by the starlight enveloped Qin Chen and the others, preventing the death aura of the Phantom Star River from invading them too much.
Otherwise, the chilling death aura alone would freeze the souls of Qin Chen and his group.
No wonder even a Heaven Venerable cannot cross this place.
Qin Chen had seen many mysterious places, but this Phantom Star River could definitely rank in the top three, comparable to the Void Tidal Sea, only stronger.
"Here are some fishing tools. You can start fishing," the gnome elder said after the starship had sailed a distance into the Phantom Star River, bringing out some fishing equipment from the cabin.
They were fishing gear, hats, gloves, and other items.
"Everyone, the water flow in the Phantom Star River is very dangerous, with strong void and corrosive aura. If you touch it, it will instantly burn your flesh. So, you must never come into contact with the water flow of the Phantom Star River. These hats and gloves are made of Golden Silk Star Divine Thread, resistant to the river's corrosion. The fishing rod is forged from Death Meteorite Gold, soft and tough, a valuable treasure crafted with great effort by the black market," the gnome elder explained, putting on the hat and gloves to prevent getting corroded by the river's seawater.
