After Long Yu returned to the Heavenly Mandate Manor, he sent Xi Yangwu, the seven members of the Death Legion, Xi He, Xi Lao, and Shu Chan to the North Snow Imperial Palace.
Then, he rushed to the Shenluo Empire alone.
So far, the person that Long Yu trusted the most was Shu Chan. After all, Shu Chan knew many of his secrets. Even the Asura Ancient Palace was owned by him. Therefore, when Shu Chan went to the Holy City of the Five Emperors, Long Yu wanted her to enter the Five Emperors' Illusory Realm.
In the North Snow Empire's Red Emperor's Illusory Realm battle, the Red Emperor must have noticed Shu Chan. Maybe without Long Yu saying anything, he would give her a place to enter the Five Emperors' Illusory Realm.
For this, Long Yu could only deal with it after he came out of the ancient relic.
Now, he must focus all his attention on the ancient relic!
…
While Long Yu was rushing to the Shenluo Empire, the Emperors of the Cloud Empire and the Shenluo Empire began to deduce Long Yu's whereabouts.
For Emperor Yundun, the deaths of his two sons were related to Long Yu. Of course, he would not let Long Yu go!
As for the people of the Shenluo Empire, there were spies in the North Snow Empire. Since there were spies, they must have received the news of Long Yu's return.
Therefore, Situ Liuli, the daughter of the City Lord of the City of Desolate God, asked her father to deduce Long Yu's whereabouts.
Long Yu took three Desolate Grade Elixirs from the General's Mansion, which made Situ Liuli suffer a great loss. She would probably never forget the humiliation that Long Yu brought to her that day!
This was the first time she had suffered a setback since she came to this world. Naturally, Long Yu had left a deep impression on her.
Emperor realm experts were almost never wrong in their deductions of low-level martial practitioners. Soon, Long Yu's movements were clearly displayed in front of the emperor realm experts.
Some of the stronger Martial Emperors even managed to deduce Long Yu's destination — somewhere in the Shenluo Empire!
As a result, a large group of experts embarked on a journey to kill Long Yu. However, not a single person dared to step into the territory of the North Snow Empire to cause trouble. After all, everyone knew that Yu Hanxin was the ruler of the North Snow Empire, and she was the sixth direct disciple of the Red Emperor!
Of course, to be honest, they were afraid of Yu Hanxin because they couldn't beat Yu Hanxin.
As for Long Yu, he was only in the intermediate stage of the king realm. As long as they sent someone to kill him, would the Red Emperor slaughter them all in a fit of anger?
When the Red Emperor asked, they could directly say that they didn't know Long Yu's identity. What else could the Red Emperor do?
Moreover, there were many precedents of the direct disciples of the Five Emperors being killed when they were training outside. The Five Emperors had never been angered by such a matter.
The direct disciples of the Five Emperors were killed while they were out adventuring. This in itself was a kind of humiliation. If the Five Emperors were to care about this kind of thing, how could their direct disciples truly grow?
Long Yu spent three days and arrived at the border between the North Snow Empire and the Shenluo Empire. Then, he disguised himself as a crow and flew leisurely in the sky.
During this period, Long Yu sensed that many people were waiting at the border of the Shenluo Empire. They were obviously waiting to kill him. Unfortunately, no one knew that he had transformed into a crow!
When Long Yu flew thousands of miles at his fastest speed, half a day had passed. Finally, a large group of people chased after this crow.
There was no other reason. The Emperor Realm powerhouse had finally divined that Long Yu was in the vicinity, but he couldn't figure out where exactly Long Yu was!
In the end, there were still people who suspected this crow.
However, just as that person was about to kill the crow, Long Yu's body transformed and rapidly rose high into the sky, turning into a speck of dust!
Not only that, he also formed six ancient shadows and made these ancient shadows all disguise as crows. They flew in all directions and attracted the attention of a large group of people.
The speck of dust that Long Yu had transformed into was blown forward by the strong winds in the sky. Although its speed was slow, it was still able to quickly leave this area.
He once again slipped away from the eyes of the pursuers.
By the time the emperors deduced his location again, he had already flown thousands of miles away!
Just like that, Long Yu relied on the Book of Shadows to disguise himself and move forward. He would sometimes turn into a bird, sometimes into a fish, and he would swim along the river.
Day after day, three days passed. He was already not far from his destination, the ancient ruins. The emperors had deduced his location six times, but none of them were able to catch him.
However, after these six deductions, everyone understood the trick to Long Yu's evasion — disguise himself as something else to confuse the public!
Although they didn't know how Long Yu did it, they firmly believed that if this continued, they would be able to capture Long Yu in less than two days!
There were even two Martial Emperors who had personally arrived at Long Yu's destination that they had deduced and were prepared to wait for him.
Another day passed, and Long Yu arrived in the sky above an extremely barren swamp!
The entrance to the ancient ruins mentioned by the Envoy of Death was located here, underneath a ten-thousand-year-old quagmire.
Upon arriving here, Long Yu sensed that he wasn't far from the ancient ruins. He immediately transformed into a small snake and burrowed into the ground beneath the quagmire.
This kind of small snake was a race of demonic beasts that had lived in this swamp for generations. They were extremely powerful to be able to traverse the swamp as if it was flat ground. Long Yu's speed was even faster than when he was flying in the sky.
When Long Yu transformed into a small snake and burrowed into the swamp, many pursuers finally arrived.
"Where's that kid?"
"I wonder what he's disguised himself as this time. Everyone, be careful, no matter what tries to fly away, shoot it down! Don't let even a fly escape!"
"It seems like that kid's destination is this swamp. Should we go down and search? There might be some treasures in this swamp! "
"You, you, and you, follow me down. Let's see if we can find anything."
Even the two emperors arrived at this place. They looked at the large swamp with furrowed brows.
One of the experts was a Late-stage Emperor. He wasn't from the Shenluo Empire, but his divination ability was the strongest among them. All the experts from the Shenluo Empire were extremely respectful towards this old man.
This old man was an imperial elder from the Taiwu Empire, one of the six sects and ten countries near the Holy City of the Five Emperors!
The Taiwu Empire was undoubtedly a colossus compared to the Shenluo Empire. Any imperial elder who came would be welcomed by the entire Shenluo Empire.
One had to know that there were no Late-stage Emperors in the entire Shenluo Empire. At most, there were only Mid-stage Emperors!
This was why they were afraid of Yu Hanxin. Even the strongest expert in the Shenluo Empire couldn't defeat Yu Hanxin, who was only a Late-stage Emperor.
But because of this, Long Yu thought of the Tianqin Empire.
A long time ago, the Tianqin Emperor had fought with Yu Hanxin. Although he was seriously injured by Yu Hanxin, it was still not easy for him to survive under Yu Hanxin's attack.
This was also why Long Yu hadn't gone to the Tianqin Empire yet.
Otherwise, he would have gone to the Tianqin Empire to avenge the King of Shura and the King of Shadows. He would also have taken down the Tianqin Empire along the way. That way, he would have enough cultivation resources. The people of the Heavenly Mandate Manor and Shura Manor wouldn't have to worry about not having a place to train.
The Tianqin Empire wasn't much smaller than the North Snow Empire.
As long as Long Yu had the confidence to defeat the Tianqin Emperor, he would immediately kill him and occupy the Tianqin Empire. But now wasn't the time.
Soon, the Late-stage Emperor Realm elder from the Taiwu Empire finished his divination and said, "I've divined for three days and three nights, and I've finally found his final destination. Everyone, please follow me."
And so, the group followed the Taiwu Empire Elder to the center of the swamp. There was an enormous swamp pond in the center of the swamp. It looked no different from the rest of the swamp.
However, the Taiwu Empire Elder pointed at the pond, "This swamp pond is not an ordinary place. If I'm not wrong, it should be an ancient ruin. Without a doubt, this is Long Yu's destination!"
"Ancient ruin, I didn't think that the kid would bring us to such a good place!"
The people of the Shenluo Empire were pleasantly surprised.
Who didn't want to enter an ancient ruin?
Everyone knows that every single ancient ruin in Shen Wu world holds a great fortune, if you can obtain it, your cultivation strength will go through a drastic change!
"Don't be too happy yet."
The Grand Wu Empire Elder's face immediately darkened, "I've divined again and found that only cultivators below the Martial Emperor Stage can enter this ancient ruin. Once one reaches the Martial Emperor Stage and has mastered the power of divination, they will be blocked by the ancient ruin and cannot enter!"
"So that's the case?"
A Mid-stage Emperor from the Shenluo Empire, the City Lord of the City of Desolate God, Situ Kong, was Situ Liuli's father. Because Long Yu had bullied Situ Liuli, he was the most diligent in capturing Long Yu.
Other than him, the Great General of the Desolate God City's General's Mansion had also participated in the operation to capture Long Yu. Unfortunately, at this point in time, these Emperor Realm experts were at their wits' end.
So what if he was a Emperor?
If they couldn't enter the ancient ruin, they couldn't capture Long Yu!
"It doesn't matter, we have many late-stage emperor realm cultivators here. We can send any of them to capture that brat and explore the ancient ruins."
The General of the City of Desolate God's General's eyes flashed with anticipation as he quickly arranged for his subordinates to enter the ancient ruins.
There were many late emperor realm lieutenant generals and mid emperor realm army captains among his subordinates. These people were all trustworthy, and they would definitely inform him if they discovered anything in the ancient ruins.
Perhaps he would be the one to gain the most from this operation!
The General was filled with anticipation.
"Mid-stage emperor realm cultivators, be careful. According to the news from the North Snow Empire, that Long Yu can kill a mid-stage emperor realm cultivator."
The Taiwu Empire Elder said with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, we are soldiers of the empire, not as weak as those small families of the North Snow Empire. Plus, we have many late-stage emperor realm cultivators inside, enough to capture that brat."
The General didn't care at all. With an order, the emperor realm cultivators under him charged into the swamp below.
A burst of spatial divine characters flashed and the emperor realm cultivators all disappeared. They must have entered the ancient ruins.
