The drastic change three years ago had brought disaster to the Zhenlong Continent, but it had also created a batch of Fairy Realm fighters due to the increase in spirit energy.
For example, Bai Chong. Su Yu had never heard of any Fairy Realm fighters in the Zhenlong Continent. Now that a governor had such abilities, it was obvious that Bai Chong was not the only Fairy Realm fighter.
Su Yu had no choice but to be cautious. It was best to keep a low profile on this trip to the Empire of Darkness.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yu took out a set of Returning Principal Palace clothing. It was white and simple. If one did not recognize the symbol of the Returning Principal Palace on the chest, it would be very ordinary and would not attract attention.
After doing this, Su Yu's body flickered with lightning as he left using Thunder Escape.
Half a day later, in the middle continent.
At the top of a majestic mountain peak, lightning flashed, and a figure covered in surging lightning bolts stepped out.
"Empire of Darkness, we meet again …" Su Yu looked at the horizon, at the giant mountain peak that pierced through the clouds and connected heaven and earth. He was filled with emotion.
In the past, he had been captured by the Divine Eagle. Now, he was also the leader of an ancient force.
That giant mountain was the continent's number one peak, located in the center of the Zhenlong Continent. It had been occupied by the Empire of Darkness since ancient times, and it was their headquarters.
This peak was the symbol of the Empire of Darkness.
But now, this peak was surrounded by a large number of soldiers.
Scanning the surroundings with his Soul Eyes, Su Yu saw that there was an army of eight hundred soldiers around the peak!
Every one of them was at least a Half Fairy. There were ten Grade One Fairy inspectors, and there were countless Three Crystals Half Fairies. It could be said that more than half of the otherworldly forces on the continent were gathered here.
Seeing this, Su Yu could not help but shudder.
It was rumored that the Empire of Darkness was surrounded by the otherworldly army. Not only was the news true, it was even more serious.
There were eight hundred Fairies, almost half of the invaders' forces.
If the forces that had attacked the Heavenly Law Alliance and the Outpost had been half as strong, the two factions would have long been annihilated.
Under the heavy encirclement, anyone from the Empire of Darkness would be targeted. Hence, the giant mountain peak looked dead silent, with no signs of human activity.
But the strange thing was that the chief inspector, Bai Chong, was outside the Empire of Darkness and was being chased by an enemy inspector. It was unbelievable.
How did Bai Chong escape?
With his strength, it was impossible for him to break through the blockade of 800 experts and escape.
What puzzled Su Yu even more was that Elder Jiu had once said that the Empire of Darkness possessed the power to expel all otherworldly experts. So, why would they rather be surrounded than take any action?
What were they plotting?
Filled with doubts, Su Yu fixed his gaze on the giant peak.
This peak was surrounded by a magnificent city. It was more majestic than any other city on the continent, and its surface area was extremely vast.
But now, it was occupied by otherworldly experts and became an enemy zone.
If nothing unexpected happened, the people in the city had all moved to the mountain peak.
Through his Transparent Eyes, he could see that the interior of the mountain was extremely spacious. It was a grand, hollow mountain.
Just as he had expected, the hollow mountain peak was filled with people of all races. There were all kinds of shops, and it was no different from a city.
Even though it was a chaotic world, people's daily activities didn't stop. Instead, they continued to trade. Because of the impending war, people were panicking. In order to find things they needed to increase their strength, trade became more and more prosperous.
Su Yu nodded slightly. He wondered whether the two elixirs that could save Phoenix Master Qiu's life were among the items that had been traded.
Next, he had to figure out how to enter the mountain peak.
After pondering it for a moment, Su Yu made up his mind.
There were many otherworldly experts, and if they gathered together, they would be quite terrifying. Even Su Yu couldn't fight against eight hundred of them by himself.
However, numbers could sometimes be a weakness.
Su Yu could rely on his magical treasures to pass through the encirclement alone.
His only doubt was the Empire of Darkness's giant peak.
Since this peak could stand tall for three years despite being surrounded by the otherworldly army, and the otherworldly army still couldn't break through it, it was obvious that this peak had some means of isolating outsiders.
If Su Yu charged to the foot of the mountain and was refused entry, it would become the most dangerous thing to do.
Su Yu stroked his chin as he fell into deep thought.
Eh? All of a sudden, Su Yu raised his brows.
He could faintly detect a ripple of an aura. It was as if a living creature had suddenly appeared and disappeared.
The ripple was very weak, and it was similar to the appearance of an ordinary wild beast.
If this was an ordinary place, Su Yu might have ignored it. However, in such a dangerous place, he couldn't afford to be careless.
His eyes were dim, but they shone with a strange radiance. Soul Energy slowly seeped out of his eyes, passing through all the obstacles behind him.
After passing through several messy mountain rocks, Su Yu finally found the source of the ripple. It was three carefully hidden figures.
Two men and a woman.
Among the two men, one was a middle-aged man, while the other was a young man.
The middle-aged man looked ordinary and inconspicuous. He was the type of person who wouldn't be noticed even if he was thrown into a crowd.
The same was true for the young man. His appearance was very ordinary and inconspicuous.
As for the woman, she looked pretty good. She was in her early twenties and had a petite figure. Her face was very delicate, like a porcelain doll's.
She had long hair that was half a moon's length, and her bangs covered her forehead, revealing a pair of big, lively eyes.
On top of her head, there was a bright pink wildflower, which added to her liveliness.
However, there was a tinge of arrogance in her expression.
"Father, why aren't we leaving? Don't we have the Invisibility Charm? Can't we return to the empire directly? "the arrogant girl complained.
The young man beside her chuckled and said, "Linger, the Clan Master is observing the enemy. Although we have the Invisibility Charm, we can't be careless."
"I didn't ask you. Don't talk too much." Linger rolled her eyes and glanced at him.
The young man laughed awkwardly. He didn't look angry at all. Instead, he looked at Linger with even more affection.
"Linger, don't be rude to Ying Cheng." The middle-aged man, who was the Clan Master, scolded her in a low voice. "Ying Cheng is right. Don't be careless."
Linger pouted and said, "Father, you don't love me …"
"However …" The middle-aged man's tone suddenly changed, and his tone became serious. "However, I am not observing the enemy. I am observing someone else!"
His deep gaze instantly sharpened.
"Who is the Clan Master talking about?" Ying Cheng was shocked. He knew that the Clan Master was a peak Three Crystals Half Fairy Realm expert, and he could easily escape from the enemy's encirclement. However, the Clan Master was being so cautious.
"Ah? Who is it? Where is it? "Linger opened her mouth wide and looked around with her big eyes.
The middle-aged Clan Master said in a deep voice, "Didn't you notice that there is a person on that mountain? Moreover, he has been here for a while, but I only noticed him now."
Mountain? Ying Cheng and Linger were both surprised, and Linger asked curiously, "Father, why didn't we feel any fluctuations of his aura? My Aura Observing Technique isn't any weaker than yours. "
As she spoke, Linger stuck her head out from behind the rock and looked at the mountain. She was shocked and said, "Ah, there is really a person …"
Her mouth was covered by the middle-aged Clan Master, who lowered his voice and said, "Shh!"
Linger was shocked and asked, "Father, who is that person? Why didn't my Aura Observing Technique sense anything even though he was there? The Aura Observing Technique is an Immortal Level Cultivation Technique, and it can detect any changes in aura within a one-mile radius. "
"A person's body naturally emits an aura, so it can be easily detected. So, why didn't I sense any changes in his aura when he came here?" Linger asked in surprise.
Ying Cheng was also alarmed and asked, "Clan Master, what is going on?"
The middle-aged Clan Master said in a deep voice, "Isn't it simple? There are only two possibilities!
First, his strength is far above ours. Although the Aura Observing Technique can detect any changes in aura within a one-mile radius, if that person's strength is higher than ours, our senses will be affected under the spiritual pressure, and we won't be able to detect his presence. "
"Second, he is proficient in some kind of secret technique that allows him to hide his aura. Even the Aura Observing Technique can't detect him. This kind of cultivation technique is most likely an Immortal Level Cultivation Technique."
As he said this, Ying Cheng and Linger heaved a sigh of relief.
"Father, I saw him from afar. He is about the same age as us, so how could his strength be stronger than yours? There is no need to ask. This kid must be proficient in some kind of secret technique that allows him to hide his aura. It might not be a cultivation technique, but it is possible that he swallowed some elixirs. "
However, the middle-aged Clan Master warned her again, "Linger, how many times have I told you not to judge a book by its cover? Age doesn't decide everything! There are many young experts in the otherworldly world! There are many otherworldly people who are stronger than you! "
After Linger was scolded, she pouted her lips and became unhappy.
When Ying Cheng saw this, he shifted his gaze and pretended to be deep in thought. "Clan Master, I think what Linger said makes sense. This person is just like us, standing sneakily outside the encirclement. He is most likely not someone from the otherworldly world, but someone from our continent! Moreover, we have never heard of a powerful expert from our continent's younger generation that is more powerful than you. Even our new generation's Seven Lords of Darkness didn't reach such a level, right? "
What he said made sense. There were many talented experts in the Zhenlong Continent, but none of them had reached the Three Crystals Half Fairy Realm.
However, the middle-aged Clan Master shook his head and said, "That might not be the case. The three of us have already been out on a mission for three months. Did you forget about the legend of the Heavenly Law Alliance's Master so quickly? The Heavenly Law Alliance's Master is an existence who can easily kill a Level Three Fairy Realm expert. Do you not know about his identity as Yin Yu? "
Yin Yu … His name was like a sudden clap of thunder, which immediately caused them to feel deep veneration.
"He … He can't be counted." Ying Cheng was embarrassed, and he couldn't hide the respect in his eyes. "If the rumors are true, then he is already a legendary figure who stands at the peak of the Zhenlong Continent. He is comparable to our King of Darkness. How can we, who are in the same generation as him, compare ourselves to him?"
Ying Cheng was a Level Two Fairy Realm youth, so he could be considered one of the top geniuses in the Zhenlong Continent.
