Although he was in the Nethersky Divine World, Yi Yun had no intention of visiting Fairy Yourou. All he wanted was to confirm that she was fine.
"Did Fairy Yourou suffer any serious injuries during the expedition to the ancient battlefield?"
Yi Yun asked casually. When the middle-aged scholar heard Yi Yun's words, his heart palpitated slightly. He immediately realized that Yi Yun might know Fairy Yourou! Although Fairy Yourou was a lofty figure to people like them, it would not be odd for the powerful Yi Yun to know her!
"Senior, Fairy Yourou has returned safely. Furthermore, she is about to break through to the late-stages of the Supremacy realm. Now, Lady Bluefeather plans on refining Divine Laceration Pills for Fairy Yourou. It is a pill that mighty figures at the Divine Lord realm might not even have the chance to enjoy even after fusing a second Divine Lord Royal Seal. But now, she plans on giving it to Fairy Yourou for her breakthrough to the late-stages of the Supremacy realm. Us Frost Sand Valley disciples entered the Frost Ice Sandsea in search of the Black Heart Lotus. The Divine Palace is currently purchasing a batch of divine herbs for alchemy at a high price. One of them is the Black Heart Lotus … "
"So that's how it is."
Yi Yun nodded. He knew the herbs needed to refine the Divine Laceration Pill. He had the Black Heart Lotus. In fact, the Black Heart Lotus was not considered a very precious herb. Yi Yun guessed that it was not like Divine Lord Bluefeather did not have a Black Heart Lotus. She just wanted to purchase more and choose the best quality ones.
The Black Heart Lotus was nothing much, but Yi Yun had a few herbs that could be used in the Divine Laceration Pills. They were extremely precious and difficult to find. Yi Yun guessed that Bluefeather might not have them.
The reason why Yi Yun had them was because they came from Primordial Chaos Daolord's collection. Back when Yi Yun found them, he was pleasantly surprised.
Yi Yun did not mind providing the herbs to Bluefeather Divine Lord. Of course, he had to exchange them for items he wanted. After all, such herbs were practically priceless. It was already a great help for him to provide them to Bluefeather Divine Lord.
Yi Yun asked, "Where's the Divine Palace? I do have some items that can help Bluefeather refine the Divine Laceration Pills. "
Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, the middle-aged scholar was taken aback. Didn't Yi Yun know Fairy Yourou? Did he not even know where the Divine Palace where Fairy Yourou resided was? In the Nethersky Divine World, the Divine Palace was the absolute ruling faction. Everyone knew of it.
He said, "Lord Bluefeather is not in the Divine Palace at the moment. Senior, if you wish to visit her, you can head to the White Lunar Divine Empire. Rumor has it that the White Lunar Divine Empire's Fairy Lin is about to inherit the throne. Now, the various major factions in the Sinkhole are heading there to congratulate her. Lord Bluefeather has also brought Fairy Yourou with her. As for the refinement of the Divine Advancement Pill, it will only begin after she returns."
"What!?"
Upon hearing the middle-aged scholar's words, Yi Yun was alarmed. The so-called Fairy Lin was naturally Lin Xintong. Lin Xintong wanted to inherit the throne of the Great Empress!?
"The White Lunar Goddess Empress is passing the throne to Lin Xintong?"
"Yes … Yes. Actually, I heard that it wasn't the White Lunar Goddess Empress who passed on the throne. Instead, it seems to be …" The middle-aged scholar's voice became softer as if he was afraid of something.
"Seems like what? Feel free to speak your mind! "Yi Yun felt that something was amiss from the middle-aged scholar's expression.
"That's what I heard as well. I can't be certain. Rumor has it that the White Lunar Goddess Empress has perished. Without a leader, the White Lunar Divine Empire has no choice but to let Fairy Lin inherit the throne."
"Oh!?"
Yi Yun's heart palpitated when he heard that!
Perished!?
How was that possible!?
Upon noticing Yi Yun's ugly expression, the middle-aged scholar carefully explained, "I wouldn't dare speculate on such matters, but I heard that the White Lunar Divine Empire's immortal palace suddenly fell from the heavens and smashed into the ground. It looked like it had lost a great deal of its spirituality."
"Everyone knows that the immortal palace is actually the White Lunar Goddess Empress's intrinsic divine treasure, the White Jade Phoenix Palace. It's used to stabilize the White Lunar Divine Empire's providence. If not for something happening to the White Lunar Goddess Empress, it's unlikely that her intrinsic divine treasure would have fallen from the sky …"
Upon hearing the middle-aged scholar's words, Yi Yun drew a deep breath. An intrinsic divine treasure was connected to its owner's mind. From the looks of it, Bai Yueyin was truly in trouble!
When he encountered the White Lunar Goddess Empress, she was fighting the Ancestor God! Back then, Bai Yueyin was already heavily injured.
With the Ancestor God's omnipotent powers, it was not impossible for Bai Yueyin to suffer some sort of mishap!
Upon coming to this realization, Yi Yun's heart turned heavy. He had already been targeted by the Ancestor God. With Bai Yueyin holding him back, he could still catch a breather, but now, the situation was even worse.
At that moment, Yi Yun suddenly thought of something. He probed his psyche into the Purple Crystal and carefully probed his limbs and bones. About fifteen minutes later, Yi Yun broke out into a cold sweat. He clearly sensed that there was an energy that did not belong to him hidden in his dantian.
The strange and mysterious energy condensed into a gigantic mark that resembled a totem of an eye.
Could this be … a mark left behind by the Ancestor God!?
Yi Yun knew that the Ancestor God had left a mark on him, but Bai Yueyin had mentioned that she had taken care of it for him.
However, in the primeval universe, Yi Yun had been tracked by the Ancestor God while he was in the Chaos Gem mineral vein. This made Yi Yun find it odd. No matter how powerful the Ancestor God was, could his perception cover the entire universe?
Could it be that Bai Yueyin did not have the ability to wipe away the mark left behind by the Ancestor God? Instead, she had used a particular method to conceal it and sever the connection between the mark and the Ancestor God?
However, with Bai Yueyin's accident, the seal she left behind had lost its effect. The tracing mark was naturally sensed by the Ancestor God. This was also why the Ancestor God was able to traverse vast distances to find him in the primeval universe!
How could Yi Yun not be alarmed by a mark that could claim his life at any time?
But on careful thought, the Ancestor God had not pursued him despite having been in the spatial turbulence for decades. He had likely been severely injured in the primeval universe, so he still had time. Although it was extremely difficult to cultivate to the point of killing the Ancestor God, Yi Yun felt that it was not difficult for him to sever the connection between the mark and the Ancestor God like Bai Yueyin, especially with the Purple Crystal Origins.
Regardless, there was nothing wrong with raising his strength.
Now, Yi Yun planned on heading to the White Lunar Divine Empire. He obviously could not miss Lin Xintong's succession ceremony. He could also meet Divine Lord Bluefeather in passing and exchange for some items from her. It would also make his cultivation path smoother.
As Yi Yun was pondering over the matter, he suddenly heard a weak girl's voice. "Se … Senior …"
Yi Yun looked up and saw a girl dressed in a light yellow dress. She was hesitant to speak, but her face was flushed red like a peach.
And beside her, the middle-aged scholar was still maintaining a respectful posture. However, his forehead was covered in cold sweat. Clearly, he was extremely weak.
"Senior!"
When the girl saw Yi Yun look over, she bit her lips and said, "Senior, I implore you to save us. My martial uncle had burned a great deal of his blood essence to protect us. Now, his lifeblood is depleted and his strength has dropped. It will probably be difficult for him to return to his original realm in the future. And the Frost Ice Sandsea is filled with murderous black winds. In our present situation, it's impossible for us to return to the Frost Sand Valley."
As the girl spoke, tears shimmered in her eyes. She looked like a weeping beauty that evoked pity.
In fact, she had long wanted to speak up but she could not bring herself to do so. After all, Yi Yun had saved them once, which was already a great favor. It was too much to ask such an important figure to send her back to the Frost Sand Valley.
She even wanted to plead with Yi Yun to help her martial uncle recover. It might not be too difficult for Yi Yun, but to the Frost Sand Valley, it was a matter of life. However, this made her even more speechless.
After a brief internal struggle, the girl knelt to the ground and said, "Senior, can you save my martial uncle? My martial uncle is the person in our Frost Sand Valley who has the highest chance of breaking through to the Supremacy realm. In the past few centuries, our Frost Sand Valley has been deteriorating. We can't afford any losses. If Senior is willing to help, there's nothing I can do to repay you. I can only be your slave to repay you! "
Upon hearing the girl's words, the Frost Sand Valley disciples turned anxious. In fact, she was practically offering herself as a slave. Yi Yun felt extremely embarrassed when he heard that. These people still did not know that if Yi Yun had not broken out of the primeval universe, how could these people have ended up in such a state? If the girl had not spoken up, he would have saved them. However, due to the shock of hearing about Lin Xintong and Bai Yueyin, as well as realizing that he had the Ancestor God's mark in him, he did not have the time to save them.
"Ling 'er, what nonsense are you speaking? If I were to lose you on this trip, how am I to answer to the sect master!?" The middle-aged scholar hurriedly stopped the girl. He was truly afraid that Yi Yun would have designs on her. After all, Ling 'er was pretty and attractive to men. And against Yi Yun, they were powerless to put up any resistance. Ling 'er was the sect master's only personal disciple. He had brought Ling' er on this expedition so as to ensure Ling 'er's safety.
Yi Yun coughed dryly. He could have explained the misunderstanding, but he could not tell them about the primeval universe. The spatial storms here had probably been witnessed by many people. People with extensive knowledge would definitely notice that the storms were extraordinary.
He could only say, "It can be considered fate that we met. About that …"
Yi Yun took out a few bottles of pills and, after some thought, took out a jade box.
"These are for you. These pills will save you some cultivation time. It won't be a problem to treat your martial uncle's injuries. As for serving me, there's no need for you to do so. It's best you cultivate well. There's still a long road ahead of you. Don't give up your life so easily."
Upon hearing Yi Yun's final sentence, the girl's face blushed. She bit her lips tightly, unable to say a word. She felt that Yi Yun was treating her as a casual woman.
"Senior, I …"
"Take it."
Yi Yun handed the items to the girl who was at a loss as to what to do when she received them. When she saw the pills, she was stunned. In fact, she did not recognize the types of pills. However, when she saw the jade box with its corner opened, she realized that it contained the Black Heart Lotus they had been searching for more than ten days!
"This is … a supreme-grade Black Heart Lotus that has matured for more than ten thousand years!?"
The girl's martial uncle was naturally a knowledgeable person. He immediately recognized the quality of the Black Heart Lotus. Even Supremacies would risk their lives to snatch such an item.
As for the pills, although they were stored in jade bottles, the surrounding Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was unknowingly stirred by the pills in the bottles, forming tiny vortexes. These pills were probably several times more precious than the supreme-grade Black Heart Lotus!
"It's too precious. We can't take it!" The middle-aged scholar hurriedly said. Not only could it treat his injuries, it could also allow him to break through to the Supremacy realm. He could even choose disciples with excellent talent and nurture a few more Supremacies!
"Ahem, it's alright. Since we are fated, I'll treat it as an opportunity for the both of you. The information you provided me has helped me quite a bit."
Since there was no other way, Yi Yun decided to acknowledge the favor. After all, he had no use for these pills. He was not lacking in supreme-grade Black Heart Lotus, so he might as well get them to send it to the Divine Palace and exchange it for some resources.
"Since you are injured, you won't be able to walk out of this desert sea. I'll send you on your way."
As Yi Yun spoke, his perception radiated outwards like the sun. In just a few seconds, he found a secluded valley in the surroundings of the Frost Ice Sandsea. On a stone monument in front of the valley were the words' Frost Sand Valley '.
Following that, Yi Yun casually tore open space and opened up a spatial passageway.
This scene made many of the Frost Sand Valley disciples stare with widened eyes. They felt as though Yi Yun had torn open space with a wave of his hand like he was tearing a painting!
Before they could even be astonished, they felt a massive and unparalleled Yuan Qi sweep them up. Following that, they were thrown into the spatial passageway!
To Yi Yun, who had wandered the primeval universe's spatial turbulence for decades, using spatial dimension laws at this level was a piece of cake.
Everyone felt the world spin around them, and a few seconds later, their eyes lit up. Following that, everyone was stunned. In front of them was the Frost Sand Valley's engraved stone. When they looked up again, the sect was right in front of them!
They had actually … returned!?
In just a few blinks of an eye, they had returned to the Frost Sand Valley from the depths of the Frost Ice Sandsea. It was not easy to traverse space alone, much less to transport a group of people on such a large scale. Furthermore, that person definitely did not know the Frost Sand Valley's location unless he had instantly spread out his perception and found it. What sort of powerful perception and heaven-defying means were unheard of.
"We are back just like that …" said the girl in the light yellow dress in a daze. If not for the jade bottle still emitting the warmth from Yi Yun's palm, she would have believed that she was dreaming.
"That's right, we are back." The middle-aged scholar felt mixed emotions. Such a realm was something he could not even look up to or understand, much less reach.
"Where's that senior?" asked the girl subconsciously.
"He likely left and only sent us back."
