It was total chaos within the Gleamstar Blessed Land, an environment very hard for one to get used to. Each disciple that had entered had to be on alert at all times to prevent injuries. Here, the flying rocks weren't the biggest danger. The biggest danger was actually the unstable spiritual energy that made it hard for anyone to make use of the natural energy in the air.

Because of that, each crisis they dealt with would exhaust their stored astral energy, yet they had no way of replenishing their energy. If this continued, they would be forced to replenish their energy with spirit crystals or herbs.

Initially, they assumed that there would be no life forms living in this place. With such a vile environment, what kind of life form could survive in here? Alas, there was indeed a certain life form thriving in this environment. That life form was known as the horned shell monster.

The horned shell monster was an extremely rare life form that looked like both a bug and a beast, making it hard for one to judge the actual constitution of this life form. A horned shell monster was spheroid, with clear edges around its body. Each edge was akin to the sharpest blade.

The horned shell monsters weren't big, and when they coiled, they resembled a rock. Their actual shape could only be seen when they weren't coiling. Because of that, many horned shell monsters had actually merged with the flying rocks. Only when the disciples smashed the rocks apart would the horned shell monsters reveal themselves and smash into the disciples.

The edges of the horned shell monsters were extremely sturdy and sharp. With a single collision, they could skewer a disciple.

"Ahhhh!"

Some disciples who had not expected there to be such monsters here were caught by a complete surprise. They were seriously injured, and some even had their heads directly smashed. Blood spilled everywhere, and the disciples panicked.

"Monster! Monster! Watch out, everyone!"

"What are these? They can actually survive here? Kill them, quick! Or we will suffer!"

...

Thus, the disciples were forced to work together yet again. However, when they struck the horned shell monsters, they couldn't even deal much damage. It was evident how sturdy these horned shell monsters were.

Xiang Shaoyun's group had also suffered the attack of the horned shell monsters. The first to suffer was Ma Qihao, who couldn't react in time, and he wailed in pain due to the injury dealt to him. Fortunately, Aikai had an impressive response time and could still maintain a certain level of speed superiority even in such a chaotic environment.

However, not even he could forcefully block the horned shell monsters. At this moment, a horned shell monster was flying straight toward Xiang Shaoyun. He was using the profundity of earth to control the trajectory of the flying rocks, but the horned shell monsters were life forms. Thus, he wasn't able to control them.

Xiang Shaoyun quickly reacted and formed a brownish fist that smashed right into the horned shell monster flying his way.

Bang!

The horned shell monster was sent flying, yet it had suffered no damage. Instead, it borrowed the impact to smash toward someone else instead. These monsters were completely unaffected by the chaotic environment. Rather, they drifted along with the flow of air and attacked whoever they encountered in their way.

They weren't attacking just to harm the humans. Rather, they were taking the chance to devour the blood of their prey and grow their vitality. To make matters worse, there were many horned shell monsters. Among every few rocks, one would be a horned shell monster.

Even though many disciples had entered, their numbers were pitifully small in comparison. A few people in Xiang Shaoyun's group had been injured. Fortunately, there were no deaths yet.

Xiang Shaoyun immediately commanded, "Everyone, enter the formation and release your presence to block these things."

Leading by example, he released his presence. The projections of a roaring tiger and a roaring dragon appeared. At the same time, his six-layered Goldplates took form and protected him.

The others did not dare to hold back and unleashed their respective presences as well. A massive defensive wall of presence was formed, protecting them from the chaos around them.

Xiang Shaoyun was playing his role as a leader. If he did not have the prestige he had and his subordinates were disobedient, it would be hard for them to display such teamwork. A good example was a group of disciples not far away. They had not been able to form a similar defensive line and were badly battered by the flying horned shell monsters.

At this moment, a large number of horned shell monsters suddenly appeared. Nobody could escape for now.

"Attack together!" Xiang Shaoyun commanded again.

His group of fifty attacked uniformly. Numerous attacks of all colors flew out, creating a dazzling curtain of light as they bombarded the incoming monsters. Who would have thought that the Overlord Legion would have such teamwork? It was all thanks to the hard work of Zhuge Zhantian, the chief butler of the Overlord Legion who had been drilling them since a month ago.

Not only was Zhuge Zhantian good at managing the household, he was also proficient at battle formations. He had only taught the Overlord Legion members some simple offensive and defensive battle formations, yet that was already enough to let them display proper collective combat prowess.

Even Xiang Shaoyun was filled with admiration toward Zhuge Zhantian. He had both brawn and brains and could be considered an excellent butler. As the group worked together, they sent numerous stones and horned shell monsters flying. The monsters stopped posing as a threat.

When the other groups saw the effect of teamwork, they quickly imitated them. Thus, they were also able to escape from danger, albeit with some difficulty. It would be hard for them to continue looking for gleamstar water. They even doubted if the gleamstar water could be found in such a chaotic place. 

Xiang Shaoyun released his senses, vigilant of the monster's sneak attacks as he searched for the gleamstar water. Based on the many ancient records he had read, the gleamstar water was a unique spring water formed from the parts of a destroyed star that had aged for a long time.

Releasing his senses proved to be effective as he soon discovered a place with relatively less chaotic gravity fields. Perhaps the gleamstar water could be found there. Without any hesitation, he ordered his people to change direction and head there instead.

A lot of people were in the blessed land. Thus, there might not be enough gleamstar water for everyone. The ones to first obtain the gleamstar water would definitely be at an advantage during distribution. Moreover, after obtaining some gleamstar water, one could leave first instead of staying here to suffer.

While they were heading over, another group was also heading in the same direction. The group was strong with valiant members. There were about 200 of them, making them one of the larger groups.

Xiang Shaoyun had no intention to provoke them, but it seemed the other party did not share the same intention.
