After a few more days, when Wu Kejun's body had more or less recovered, the group finally embarked on their journey back to the Yuan Region.
When they left the sect, there were a total of over two hundred disciples. But now, less than a hundred returned. Half of the disciples had shed their blood on an unfamiliar land.
It could be seen that the expressions of these disciples were somewhat desolate, as if they were feeling sorry for their fellow disciples who had died. Seeing the gloomy atmosphere, Wu Kejun couldn't help but speak to everyone in a clear voice, "Everyone, everyone will die eventually. It may be as light as a feather, or as heavy as Mount Tai. Those disciples who were buried in a foreign land sacrificed their lives for their ideals. You survivors must inherit their will and cultivate well. Become people with enough strength to protect our sect and the land beneath your feet. "
The disciples remained silent. Upon seeing this, Lin Xiu used a profound principle to transmit his voice into the ears of every disciple.
"The Great Dao is merciless. On the path of cultivation, it is very normal for some people to fall. Perhaps we will feel sad and disappointed for our old friends, but no matter what, we must pull ourselves together after the matter is over. We must set foot on the path of advancement with a high fighting spirit. Only in this way can we be worthy of their sacrifice, worthy of the blood you once shed."
The eyes of the disciples finally glowed with vigor. When Wu Kejun saw them, almost everyone clenched their fists and gently hammered their chests, as if they were making a promise to their dead friends.
After experiencing a series of battles, the Eastern Xuan Region could be said to be in a state of desolation. No one knew how many people were homeless and had lost their loved ones.
The group flew across the sky and looked down at the scenery below. They saw people hugging each other and crying bitterly. The eyes of the refugees on the side of the road were lifeless, as if they could only watch as their life force flowed away.
"Although the calamity brought by the Netherworld Palace has temporarily come to an end, no one knows when they will make a comeback. We must grasp this opportunity and work hard to raise our cultivation. Only then can we let the people we care about live happily." Looking at the scene below, a trace of sorrow flashed in Wu Kejun's eyes.
As Universe Realm experts, they couldn't conjure a large amount of food out of thin air to satisfy the needs of the residents. They could only contact the nearby sects and request for them to carry out some disaster relief activities.
Just like that, they traveled for half a month before returning to the Gui Yuan Sect.
Elder Huo Burning Tian, who stayed behind in the sect, was naturally overjoyed when he saw Wu Kejun leading the disciples back. Furthermore, the experts of the other branches had also returned to the sect over the past few days.
The current Gui Yuan Sect could be said to be extraordinarily lively. Although the expedition this time had caused many disciples to perish, the disciples that were still alive had experienced the tempering of the flames of war. Their comprehension of Martial Techniques and Cultivation Methods had increased by another level. Moreover, their bodies also had an additional aura of determination and killing intent.
They believed that as long as the Gui Yuan Sect was given a certain amount of time, they might be comparable to the top forces.
The entire sect was celebrating. Wu Kejun sat on the host's seat and raised her cup to everyone. Now that Lin Xiu was the number two in the sect, he naturally received everyone's attention.
"Everyone, be down-to-earth. The mountains will make way for you, and perseverance will make the sea move. Now that the Netherworld Palace has temporarily restrained its claws, we should celebrate for this. However, the first cup of wine still has to be given to those hot-blooded men that died in the battlefield. Without them, we wouldn't be here today."
Wu Kejun slowly poured the wine in her hand onto the ground, and the other experts also followed suit.
Following that, the leaders of the various factions and Wu Kejun discussed how the sects should develop quickly in the near future. Now was not the time to rest and build up their strength. The situation on the continent was still grim, but no one knew when the next war would come. Everyone felt as if a stone had been added to their hearts, making it hard for them to breathe.
"Sect Master, didn't Lin Zhu already break through the forbidden area? I suggest that all the disciples under us go in to train, and then send some powerful elders to follow them secretly. As long as there are no casualties, I believe that it will be very helpful for their growth. " The leader of the Water Vein nodded at Wu Kejun, and at the same time, he looked at the others to seek their opinions.
"That place is really too dangerous, and according to what Lin Xiu said back then, there are a lot of monsters there. I'm afraid that ordinary disciples will find it difficult to adapt to the environment there." The leader of the Fire Vein frowned.
Wu Kejun flipped the wine cup in her hand, then looked at Lin Xiu, who was sitting to her right, "Okay, quickly tell us your opinion. After all, you are the person with the most right to speak about that forbidden area."
The others also turned to look at Lin Xiu.
After thinking about what to say, Lin Xiu stood up from his seat, then paced back and forth in the main hall.
"If you want to survive in such a harsh environment, it's unavoidable to go through some tempering. There's no food in that forbidden area, and it's dark everywhere. If you want to survive, you can only rely on your own strength to fight. What's more, there's not even a water source in that place. So, I suggest that people with water sources don't enter that place."
Wu Kejun and the other experts nodded their heads. Lin Xiu was right. Because there was no water attribute spirit power, the disciples of the Water Vein would definitely be greatly restricted if they entered. Not only would they not be able to play the slightest role in training, but they might also lose their lives there.
"If that's the case, I'll give the order tomorrow for the disciples to prepare themselves and bring enough water with them before they can enter the forbidden area." Wu Kejun smiled. The elders in the main hall nodded their heads in agreement.
