"Are you sure it's really the Heaven Measuring Ruler?" The Emperor of the Country of Wood subconsciously stood up from his throne and asked with a pale face.
"Based on what I've seen before, there's at least an eighty percent chance that it's the Heaven Measuring Ruler!" Prince Xuan said respectfully.
When everyone present heard this, their expressions turned ugly. They felt as if they were about to face a formidable enemy. Although they still weren't sure who the wielder of the Heaven Measuring Ruler was, the fact that this person had appeared in the Country of Wood was enough to strike fear into everyone's hearts.
"Can our imperial family's formation block an attack of that level? Or rather, do we have a way to defend against such a powerful invasion?" The Emperor of the Country of Wood asked the question he was most concerned about.
Although the crisis wasn't close at hand, the Country of Wood had to prepare for a rainy day. This feeling of not being in control of their own fate was very difficult for everyone present to accept. They had always been the ones controlling the fate of others, but when their own fate was in the hands of others, the despair and helplessness would be a great psychological burden.
Prince Xuan hesitated for a moment before finally speaking. "We've never seen an immortal artifact before. Just from this storm alone, it's hard to be sure, so I don't know if we can resist it. However, with so many powerful cultivators in our Country of Wood, even if we can't resist the might of the Heaven Measuring Ruler, we should be able to protect ourselves!" Prince Xuan said with a solemn expression.
"I understand!" The Emperor of the Country of Wood nodded and said somewhat absent-mindedly, "Strengthen the defenses during this period of time. If you encounter any suspicious people, don't act immediately. Wait until you've investigated thoroughly, understand?"
"We understand!" Everyone said respectfully.
"There's one more thing. We might have some history with the cultivator holding the Heaven Measuring Ruler. It's like this …" Prince Xuan weighed his options and decided to reveal the matter of the Ninth Prince. After all, this was a matter of national survival. He couldn't hide it. Otherwise, it would be too late by the time the two black-clothed men came knocking.
Soon, Prince Xuan recounted everything that happened at the entrance of the Hidden Fog Corridor.
"That Mu Zhan!"
Bang!
The Emperor of the Country of Wood's face flushed red. He smashed the table in front of him with his palm, causing everyone in the hall to kneel on the ground in fear.
"I've spoiled him too much! It'll be fine if nothing happens this time, but if those two people really come looking for us, I'm afraid I'll have to put justice before family! "
Although Mu Zhan was his favorite son, in front of the country, in front of the imperial power, he could only be sacrificed. This was reality!
The Wood Nation's number one sect, the Wood Nation's Sect, was in a similar situation. They had also seen Yui Kimi in action and the appearance of the Heaven Measuring Ruler. At this moment, they were also preparing to face a formidable enemy. However, they were relatively better off. At least their relationship with Yui Kimi wasn't that tense. The only problem was the jade tube that Lan Xin gave to Yui Kimi. However, they could only hope that the jade tube was fine and there was nothing else they could do.
Soon, dozens of days had passed. The entire Country of Wood was calm and tranquil. Nothing major happened. The Hidden Fog Corridor also showed an unprecedented tranquility. The fog once again filled the area. Many high-level cultivators gathered at the periphery of the corridor, wanting to investigate the spiritual energy storm. However, very few people dared to enter the Hidden Fog Corridor at this time. Therefore, what happened more than ten days ago was still a mystery to most people.
In the deepest part of the Hidden Fog Corridor, where the corridor labyrinth was located.
Yui Kimi and Bu Lian Shi were standing in front of the ancient transmission array. Their brows were tightly knitted as they stared at the flowing light of the array. They had been here for more than ten days, but they were still confused about this array.
"Aha, this array's complexity is really the first I've seen in my life!" On the other side, Bai Jue softly said.
In the entire Akatsuki, only Black Tortoise had a deeper understanding of array. In the past, because he wanted to inquire about all kinds of information, he walked in all kinds of secret places and often encountered difficult arrays. Therefore, in these years, besides collecting information, Black Tortoise also practiced array. Among them, he also dabbled in spatial transmission array and so on, but it was only dabbling. There were many things related to spatial law that he couldn't comprehend before reaching Void Refinement stage.
"Is there a way to control this array?" Yui Kimi frowned and said.
There was an ancient transmission array, but to control it and bring back Hayashikawa from the Floating Spirit region wasn't easy.
Because Little Green Snake was only absorbed into the teleportation array later on, it couldn't control the array. All it could do was borrow a portion of the array's power. Therefore, Mu Yuyi and the others had to figure out how to control the teleportation array themselves.
"It's difficult to control it. I need a little more time. At the same time, I need the green snake's cooperation. The World Suppressing Plate should be able to play a certain role." Bai Jue softly said. His expression didn't change much.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you for the time being. If you need the World Suppressing Plate, just contact me!" Yui Kimi had been here for more than ten days. Every day she faced these arrays, and now she had a kind of dazzling feeling. Just looking at those complicated patterns made her feel a headache.
"Are you ready to leave?" Bu Lian Shi asked with some surprise.
"I'm going out to get some fresh air. In any case, I have the Flying Thunder God Technique. If anything happens, I'll be able to rush back!" Yui Kimi said.
"Good! Be careful! "Bu Lian Shi nodded and said.
In the next moment, the Flying Thunder God Technique was activated. Light and shadow flashed, and Yui Kimi appeared in a lush forest. He stood at the top of a mountain and looked out into the distance. Suddenly, he felt a lot more relaxed.
"Bastard Sparrow is really sneaky. When he saw us studying the array, he ran away. He didn't even have the spirit to endure hardships. Most importantly, he didn't even call me when he left. Really!" Yui Kimi said, speechless.
Floating in the air for a while, Yui Kimi began to think about what to do next. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't think of anything special. So he decided to look for something to do.
"It seems that this place isn't far from the capital of the Country of Wood. I can go take a look. After all, I have the Xuan Prince's token. If I don't make good use of it, wouldn't it be a waste of his good intentions?"
After a while, Yui Kimi's lips curled into a smile. He flew straight to the capital of the Country of Wood.
"The capital of a country. There should be a lot of good stuff there. Looks like my Heaven Measuring Ruler can come in handy again!"
"That's right. Bastard Sparrow should be very interested in such a fun thing. I can get a fighter!" With a thought, Yui Kimi immediately contacted Bastard Sparrow, who was flirting with birds somewhere. Sure enough, Bastard Sparrow agreed to Yui Kimi's request and went straight to the capital of the Country of Wood from another direction.
