The more he read, the more shocked he became. He hadn't noticed it earlier, but now that he looked at the list from a few years ago, there were a lot of names behind East Tsui. There were more than a hundred of them, almost ten times more than the other countries.
"Isn't this too exaggerated?!" Anyone could tell that there was something wrong with this name list. Even if East Tsui was some kind of fengshui treasure land, it was impossible for over a hundred Earth Immortals to ascend in a year right? Moreover, ascension depended on the cultivator himself. It had nothing to do with the location of the Upper Realm. Could it be that the array could really snatch the Immortals who had ascended to East Tsui?
Lonemoon could not help but take a closer look at the list in his hands. He paid special attention to the situation of the other countries and found that there was no significant decrease in the number of countries. Then what was going on?
"Yu Hong, how much do you know about East Tsui?" He turned to look at the person beside him.
Yu Hong thought for a while before saying, "This disciple also knows very little about the situation of the various countries in the Bo Sea. I've only heard that this East Tsui is situated at the extreme east, and within the borders, there are only some scattered small islands. A few years ago, there were very few immortals living here. But after Yu Cang ascended to the throne, these small islands united and built many immortal cities. They are getting better and better, and now their strength is not inferior to the other countries. "
"In recent years?" Lonemoon frowned. "You're saying that East Tsui only started developing recently." It seemed like it really had something to do with that array.
"Yes!" Yu Hong nodded. "When the disciples in the sect do business, uh … no, when they complete the sect's missions, they would often head to the various immortal cities in East Tsui. The level of prosperity there is not inferior to the other countries. "
Lonemoon frowned. The more he listened, the more he felt that something was amiss. After some thought, he turned to Yi Qing and said, "It seems like we really have to go and see for ourselves. Chef, you should recognize that array formation. Follow me to the immortal city to confirm it. "
"But … I still have to cultivate." Yi Qing frowned, a little dissatisfied.
"You call that cultivation? What you're doing is a demolition, okay? Let's get down to business first! " As he spoke, he turned to look at Yu Hong. "Yu Hong, we'll be leaving for a while. We don't know when we'll be back. I'll leave the sect to you."
"Yes."
"Let's go." Lonemoon opened up a spatial tunnel and was about to step into it.
Shen Ying immediately waved her hand. "Father Niu, all the best."
Lonemoon stopped in his tracks. He turned around and roared, "You freaking go too!"
"Huh?" Shen Ying's claws dropped. "So troublesome."
"Shut up!"
With that said, he turned and carried a certain lazy bum into the passageway, pushing Chef, whose mind was filled with thoughts of demolition, in as well.
In the blink of an eye, the few of them appeared on a small island. From afar, they could see an immortal city floating in mid-air.
"Chef, can you sense that array?" Lonemoon asked.
"There are many array formations in this immortal city, especially the defensive array formations outside the city. It's hard to tell which one is the Mystic Spirit Array from the outside." Chef shook his head, his eyes flashing. "Why don't we split it open and see?" It was a good chance to practice his sword.
"Scram!" The corner of Lonemoon's mouth twitched. You wastrel.
"Yu Cang didn't tell the truth, I think he's hiding something on purpose. While he's still on his way back, let's go in and check out the situation first. " Invincible Heavenly Palace needed ten days to reach East Tsui even if they flew on their swords. They directly tore through the void and naturally rushed ahead of Yu Cang. After thinking about it, he conjured another seal and suppressed his cultivation to Golden Immortal.
He then turned to the two behind him and instructed, "Chef, suppress your cultivation and hide your true appearance. Don't let anyone recognize you." After all, he was the Bo Sea Celestial Emperor. There would be images of the Celestial Emperor everywhere in Bo Sea. "And Shen Ying, you too … Forget it!" Anyway, no one could see it.
Shen Ying: "…" Son of a b * tch!
The few of them prepared for a while before flying on their swords towards the immortal city above.
Yu Hong was right. This immortal city of East Tsui was indeed very lively. They only entered a small city on the north side of East Tsui, but the city was filled with cultivators. It was no worse than those big immortal cities in the past.
Lonemoon casually scanned around and found that most of the people in the city were low-level cultivators. Most of them were Earth Immortals. Mystic Immortals and Stygian Immortals were few. One couldn't even find one or two in a few streets, much less Exalted Immortals.
Once Yi Qing entered the city, he sensed the location of that Mystic Spirit Array. He held onto Shen Ying tightly and brought Father Niu in that direction. The strange thing was that this Mystic Spirit Array wasn't hidden. Instead, it was set up openly on an empty piece of land in the east of the city. There wasn't anyone guarding it. The immortals in the city seemed to know what it was. They didn't care at all.
Lonemoon was stunned. Yu Cang was snatching people so brazenly. Wasn't he afraid that the other countries would have an opinion? But after thinking about it carefully, he understood. If this array could only change the location where people from the lower realm ascended to, the other countries might really not care much. After all, those who just ascended were all Earth Immortals. No matter how much potential they had, it would only be a matter of a few thousand years later.
Then what exactly was Yu Cang trying to do by setting up such an array in every immortal city? Was it really just to make it convenient for him to search for his relatives?
"Chef, how is it?" Lonemoon looked towards Chef who was studying the array in detail.
Yi Qing then retracted the God Power he used to examine the array. He frowned and said, "There's nothing wrong with the array. There's nothing wrong with the realm gate either. There's also remnant Spirit Qi here. If I'm not wrong, this array was activated once in the past three months."
"What?" Lonemoon was shocked. "Didn't you say that no one from East Tsui had ascended for five years?"
"I'm not sure either." Yi Qing shook his head. "But recently, someone did ascend through this array."
Lonemoon was silent for a while. He thought about it and said, "Let's go to the other immortal cities to take a look."
Hence, they went to more than ten immortal cities. In the end, they found that the array in every immortal city was the same. There were no signs of damage. What's more, there were remnants of Spirit Qi around two of the arrays. That meant that someone had ascended.
Why would Yu Cang tell such a lie that could be easily seen through? He even purposely hid the fact that someone had ascended. Even Yu Hong didn't find out. Could it be just to make them believe that there was a problem with the realm gate?
"Can we eat now?" Shen Ying, who had been dragged around for half a day, couldn't help but ask. "There's still four hours until dinner time. Father Niu, why don't we go to the city where the City Lord lost his grandson for dinner?" There must be a lot of good food there.
"Eat you …" Lonemoon wanted to retort out of habit, but he faltered. Wait, lost his grandson? He exchanged a look with Yi Qing beside him. They spoke in unison.
"Chang Qing City!"
Previously, Yu Cang had indeed specially mentioned that the nephew of the City Lord of Chang Qing, the number one immortal city in East Tsui, had failed to ascend. He had even specially invited Chef to investigate. Could it be that the problem was only with the array in Chang Qing City?
The two exchanged a look and immediately headed towards Chang Qing City. What was different from other immortal cities was that the Mystic Spirit Array in Chang Qing City was not as obvious as in other immortal cities. Instead, it was set up in the City Lord's Manor.
The few of them directly concealed themselves and snuck in. They spent a lot of effort before they found that array.
Just as they were about to go closer to take a closer look, Yi Qing suddenly paused. He looked at the array in front of them with some surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lonemoon also paused.
"This array …" His expression darkened. "There's actually death Qi attached to it."
He waved his hand, and a few wisps of immortal Qi gathered over. Indeed, a few wisps of faint black Qi floated above the array, but they disappeared in an instant.
"Holy shit!" Lonemoon was also stunned. Death Qi attached to the array, didn't that make it a killing array?
Yi Qing directly went forward and placed one hand on the array. He transferred a bit of God Power over, but in less than a moment, it was bounced back. It even carried a very domineering aura, but the moment it came into contact with his palm, it dissipated.
"The realm gate here has indeed been closed." He then stood up, frowned and corrected himself. "No, I should say … it's locked."
Lonemoon: "…"
What?
