Long Yu used the Ancient Dragon Bone Pagoda to destroy the otherworld passageway. Immediately, the ever-growing aura of the exotic beast dissipated like smoke.
Long Yu and Linghu Qianyan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's hurry to the East and North Courtyards of the Mandate Realm. Since a second exotic beast from the Mystery Land is being sent here, it's likely that the same thing is happening in the East and North Courtyards."
Linghu Qianyan glanced at Long Yu. "Do you think it's better to go to the East Courtyard or the North Courtyard first?"
"The North Courtyard."
Long Yu made a decision in an instant.
"Oh?"
Linghu Qianyan was a little surprised. "I thought you would choose to go to the East Courtyard first. After all, the North Courtyard Lord, Bei Tianyi, seems to be doing something unfriendly to you …"
"It's more than unfriendly. If I hadn't run fast enough, I'm afraid I would have lost my life in the North Courtyard of the Mandate Realm. "
Long Yu chuckled and said, "I want to go to the North Courtyard first. It's not for any other reason. It's just that the North Courtyard is closer. I can save some time there."
"That's true."
Linghu Qianyan also chuckled. "Now that the entire Northern College has been destroyed by that withered branch exotic beast, even if we slaughter that exotic beast in the Divine Secret Realm, Northern Tianyi will have to spend a lot of effort to rebuild it. It's going to be tough. Your anger should be gone by now."
"You're indeed a young hero. You know how to look at the big picture. Haha."
Wang Changfeng's voice came from the side, and he spared no effort in praising Long Yu.
Long Yu waved his hand. "Let's go. We can't afford to be late. This time, we have more than a dozen warriors in the Tribulation Realm. As long as it's not a tricky exotic beast from the Mystery Land, we should be able to kill it easily. I'm just afraid that the North Courtyard already has two exotic beasts from the Mystery Land."
"There's no time to lose. Let's go together."
Linghu Qianyan nodded and made a decision. "As for the exotic beasts from the Heavenly Being Secret Land, let the others deal with them. Our target is the exotic beast from the Mystery Land."
"Speaking of which, after dealing with so many beasts in the secret realms, why haven't I learned anything about the innate techniques? How infuriating!"
Wang Changfeng shook his head and said dejectedly.
"If it was that easy, why would we be stuck at this bottleneck for so long?"
Linghu Qianyan waved his hand and said, "Innate skills are the ways to control the divine runes. We haven't even fully understood the power of the divine runes, so how can we learn innate skills?"
After that, Linghu Qianyan flew straight toward the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, taking Long Yu with him.
Wang Changfeng followed without any hesitation. Right now, this ragged old man was in a very good mood, because his three traitorous disciples had all died in this turmoil, and their corpses could not be found.
Although two of them died in the hands of exotic beasts in the Divine-Secret Realm, and Wang Changfeng didn't get to kill them himself, it was enough to make him smile.
As for the crisis of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, the old man didn't care at all.
Anyway, he was now more and more appreciative of Long Yu, and he really wanted to take Long Yu as his disciple.
From Long Yu's performance at the critical moment, Wang Changfeng knew that this kid was not like his three traitorous disciples. Once he became Wang Changfeng's disciple, he would never mistreat the old man.
"When this thing is over, this kid will definitely have countless enemies. When I ask to take him as my disciple, this brat will probably agree, right?"
Wang Changfeng thought happily in his heart.
There were also the Northern Academy and Eastern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. There were only two beasts from the Secret Land of Divinity. With the help of Long Yu and the Dragon Bone Tower, they should be able to eliminate all the beasts soon.
…
More than a dozen warriors in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm from the six forces of the Heavenly Dipper Realm quickly followed Linghu Qianyan and came to the place where the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm used to be.
In addition to the people in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, only Long Yu was there. As for He Qinxue and Yu Wenliang, who had been protecting Long Yu, they had also stayed in the Western Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm to deal with the aftermath.
Although the golden Eight-clawed Flying Bat beast in the Divine-Secret Realm was killed, there were still many beasts in the Heavenly Realm left in the Western Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
He Qinxue and Yu Wenliang stayed in the Western Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm to deal with the remaining Eight-clawed Flying Bat beasts. They were also responsible for getting rid of all the bodies of the disciples of the Western Academy.
"Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm …"
Long Yu raised his head and looked toward the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. All he saw was a thick yellow fog. The originally flying five-colored light of the Heavenly Mandate Realm had been replaced by this yellow fog.
And in this thick fog, there was a strong aura of the withered branch exotic beasts.
It was conceivable that the nearby area had been completely occupied by the withered branch exotic beasts!
"Let's go."
Linghu Qianyan waved his hand at everyone. Then, he flew alone at the very front and charged into the thick yellow fog.
The crowd surrounded Long Yu and followed Linghu Qianyan into the yellow fog.
In the crowd, no one noticed that Deputy Palace Master Xiao of the Nine Heaven Star Palace had a vicious look in his eyes. This Deputy Palace Master Xiao was the grandfather of Elder Xiao Zezhi!
Xiao Zezhi's dantian had been destroyed by Wang Changfeng and the Hundred Refinements Five Elements Elixir had been taken away by him. The white-haired Deputy Palace Master Xiao naturally knew for whom Wang Changfeng had taken away the Hundred Refinements Five Elements Elixir.
For the sake of the entire Heavenly Mandate Continent, Xiao Zezhi temporarily joined forces with Long Yu and the others to kill the golden Eight-clawed Flying Bat beast.
But now, Deputy Palace Master Xiao felt that the crisis had passed. All the exotic beasts that had invaded the Heavenly Mandate Continent would be eliminated. So, the killing intent in his body was stirring again.
No one noticed the killing intent in the eyes of Deputy Palace Master Xiao.
However, how sensitive was Long Yu to killing intent?
"Do you want to take advantage of the chaos? How troublesome … "
Long Yu's expression did not change, but he was extremely vigilant in his heart. This old man could do anything to avenge his grandson Xiao Zezhi.
The most likely time to take action was when they were dealing with the exotic beasts from the Secret Realm. Long Yu began to think about countermeasures.
The withered exotic beasts began to appear around them. They moved freely in the yellow fog as if they were swimming in the water. They became extremely agile, which made Long Yu's heart sink.
If even the speed of the withered exotic beasts had become faster, the battle at the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm would not be as simple as he had imagined.
Moreover, judging from the time, there should have been two withered exotic beasts in the Secret Realm in the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. If that was the case, it would be extremely troublesome.
"If it weren't for the intrigue between the human martial arts cultivators, these exotic beasts would have been killed long ago. But now we are in trouble …"
Long Yu's eyes flashed.
He wanted to kill the Deputy Palace Lord of the Nine Heaven Star Palace first, just like how he dealt with the Flying Crow Du Xun and the Soul-chasing Evil Ghost Ning Yixing. But he was very clear that once he proposed this, he would definitely be opposed by the Palace Lord of the Nine Heaven Star Palace, Ling Zhiping.
In that case, conflicts would arise among the people, which would not be good for the current situation.
Long Yu had no choice but to secretly make preparations to protect himself.
More and more withered exotic beasts appeared around them, and quite a number of Heavenly Tribulation withered exotic beasts also appeared. Naturally, they were all killed by everyone. Even the thick, dusky yellow fog in the vicinity was dispersed quite a bit.
Without the yellow fog, the speed and agility of the withered exotic beasts were greatly reduced. Everyone roughly knew this characteristic of the withered exotic beasts.
It seemed that the key to victory at the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm was to disperse the thick fog.
Everyone intentionally or unintentionally used all kinds of power to try to disperse the thick fog. Soon, they learned what kind of power could disperse the thick fog more easily.
Everyone present was in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm and originally stood at the peak of the entire Heavenly Mandate Continent. Of course, they were not fools.
Without any communication, everyone had already found the fastest way to disperse the thick yellow fog.
This included Long Yu. He tried all kinds of power that he had comprehended and soon found that the Qi of the Underworld was almost overwhelming against the yellow fog. Wherever the Qi of the Underworld appeared, the yellow fog would retreat. This discovery made Long Yu feel much more assured.
As long as the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was released, it would definitely be able to completely disperse the yellow fog around them.
Everyone kept moving forward, and they were about a thousand feet away from the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
At this moment, Long Yu suddenly became alert.
"Everyone, enter the ancient tower!"
Long Yu activated the Dragon Scale of the Underworld as quickly as possible and then released the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. He was the first to rush in!
He felt an extremely fast aura of exotic beasts approaching from afar.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly rushed into the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower. They had just steadied themselves when the entire Ancient Dragon Bone Tower shook!
"They actually attacked!"
Everyone's expressions turned ugly. They had wanted to go to the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm to capture that exotic beast, but they did not expect the other party to take the initiative to attack.
They were still thousands of feet away from the Northern Academy of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, but the other party had already launched a surprise attack!
Fortunately, Long Yu reacted quickly. Otherwise, just this sneak attack alone would probably have killed one or two of them.
When the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was quickly released, all the attacks from outside landed on the body of the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower, causing it to shake violently. However, as the Qi of the Underworld within the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower spread, the thick yellow fog around them was immediately dispersed.
The withered exotic beast did not seem to like to move around outside the yellow fog. This was something that everyone had already noticed earlier.
"Let's go out now. Everyone, disperse the fog first. Of course, take care of yourselves at all times."
Long Yu said in a low voice.
"If we go out now and get ambushed by that exotic beast, won't we be dead for sure?"
White-haired Deputy Palace Lord Xiao of the Nine Heavenly Star Palace snorted coldly. "I will not do something that is purely suicidal."
"The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower can disperse the surrounding fog. If we go out now, even if that withered exotic beast ambushes us, it will not be able to approach the ancient tower without a sound."
Long Yu explained calmly.
"I believe in you, Brother Long."
