Yiyi naturally wouldn't hide anything from Lu Ye, but her cultivation was not enough, so she didn't have access to as many things as Lin Yue.
According to Lin Yue's description, the situation in the Nine Regions was more serious than Lu Ye imagined.
It was so serious that the Grand Heaven Alliance and the Myriad Demon Ridge had tacitly suspended their disputes and dealt with the mess in their hands.
This was the first time since the beginning of the world.
Ever since the two camps had been established, the conflict between them had never stopped. In the Spirit Stream Battlefield, in the Cloud River Battlefield, and in the Nine States, there had been endless conflict. However, because of the spread of the insect plague, the two camps had been forced to make some changes.
But what made people feel desperate was that this situation had been going on for two years, and they didn't know how long it would last.
The insects that emerged from the depths of the ground were endless, and the cultivators still didn't have the ability to go deep into the ground to destroy the insect nest.
If the source of the insect nest was not solved, the insect problem would always exist.
This was a dead end.
The most urgent problem for the powerhouses of the two camps now was how to safely go deep into the ground. As long as this problem was solved, the insect disaster would be eliminated.
When the group arrived at the Dark Moon Forest Pass, Lu Ye keenly noticed that the number of cultivators stationed here had greatly decreased.
It was less than ten percent of the total number when he came here last time.
Although some cultivators were now killing insects to earn merit, the number shouldn't be so small.
This situation was not caused by casualties, but because most of the cultivators had been transferred away, just like the reason why Zhang Kun was transferred away.
After all, this was the front line of the confrontation between the two camps. There was nothing else except for the mountain passes. Even if the insect race attacked and occupied this place, there was no real loss.
Unlike the hinterland of the two camps, there were many cities and gathering places of mortals that needed to be guarded.
However, this was the front line after all, and they couldn't abandon it, so they still needed some cultivators to stay here.
As for the cultivators who were transferred away, most of them were sent to positions that needed cultivators to guard.
The number of cultivators in the Nine Regions was huge, but in the face of this insect disaster that swept across the entire continent, the manpower was still tight.
Ying Wuji and the others left and took their seriously injured companion to find a medical practitioner to treat him. Lin Yue led Lu Ye to a hall and walked inside. "This was Senior Brother Zhang Kun's original residence. After he left, this place has been empty. You can live here in the future."
Lu Ye had no objections.
"It's your first time here, so you should rest first. I will request the Ten Thousand Demons City to promote you to the Little Pass Lord of the Dark Moon Forest Pass. Before the official appointment is made, you don't need to do anything. However, right now, all sides are in need of manpower, so it won't take long. You should be mentally prepared.
Lin Yue quickly left in a good mood.
Recently, she had been really tired. This time, she had caught a Divine Sea Realm cultivator from her side in the wild, and although he was only a First Order Divine Sea Realm cultivator, he could at least share some of her burden.
After sending Lin Yue off, Lu Ye went to a nearby sleeping chamber and sat down cross-legged.
Being pulled in by Lin Yue didn't have much of an impact on him. It was just a delay of a few days. Two years had passed, so why would he care about a few days?
Moreover, Li Taibai's identity could withstand scrutiny. Back then, he had disguised himself as Li Taibai and had not been seen through by the Myriad Demon Ridge. Now that the situation in the Nine Prefectures was so chaotic, it was even more impossible for him to be exposed.
He could take this opportunity to nail a nail into the Myriad Demon Ridge. Last time, when Lu Ye disguised himself as Li Taibai, he had considered this, but at that time, his cultivation was insufficient, so he gave up on this idea.
Now that he was a Divine Sea Realm cultivator, and with this opportunity, Lin Yue was in urgent need of manpower, so everything was logical.
It wasn't that he wanted to do anything unspeakable to the Myriad Demon Ridge. He couldn't shake the foundation of such a large Camp by himself, so he didn't have the ability to do so.
It was just a simple matter of taking advantage of the situation.
Perhaps doing so would be meaningless, or perhaps it would play a crucial role in the future. Who knew? It was just a chess piece within the scope of his ability.
The only troublesome person in the Dark Moon Forest Pass was Tong Shuyao.
Lu Ye remembered that this Senior Sister was extremely concerned about Li Taibai. After the last battle, Tong Shuyao was seriously injured and fell into a coma. Lin Yue announced that Li Taibai had died in battle, so she wanted to cut off Tong Shuyao's thoughts. Now that he had come back from the dead, he didn't know if Tong Shuyao would still bother him.
But then again, Tong Shuyao might not be here.
A large number of cultivators in the Dark Moon Forest Pass were transferred away, and Tong Shuyao might have been transferred away too, so she might not be here.
After thinking for a while, Lu Ye got up and walked out of his sleeping quarters, heading straight for the Tian Ji Hall.
He had been to the Tian Ji Hall in the Dark Moon Forest Pass before, so he was very familiar with the place.
There were tens of cultivators in the hall, all of them were either buying or selling the Tian Ji Pillar. Lu Ye found a familiar figure among them, it was Ying Wuji.
Beside him was his magic cultivator companion.
During this trip, they had gained quite a lot. Without mentioning other things, the materials they collected from the insects could be sold to the Tian Ji Treasure House for merit points.
A True Lake Stage cultivator's cultivation required a large amount of merit points, so to a cultivator, merit points and battle merits were equally important. Of course, in terms of value, battle merits were undoubtedly more valuable.
The Tian Ji Pillar was filled with people, and there was no place to stand. Lu Ye lined up not far behind Ying Wuji and waited quietly.
Looking at Ying Wuji, Lu Ye suddenly realised a problem.
With his cultivation speed, the gap between him and his peers would only grow bigger and bigger. Before his Talent Tree completed its transformation, his cultivation speed was quite fast, but it was not as exaggerated as it was now.
But after his Talent Tree completed its transformation and gained the ability to devour, his cultivation speed became abnormal.
His current First Order Divine Sea Realm cultivation was the result of him deliberately suppressing it. If he did not suppress it, his cultivation would definitely be higher.
This meant that his companions and even enemies who could walk side by side with him in the past would soon be left behind.
Ying Wuji was like this, but Xiao Xing He, Li Ba Xian, and the others were also like this.
This made Lu Ye feel a little melancholy.
He originally wanted to tease Ying Wuji, but now he was no longer in the mood.
Ying Wuji quickly finished his transaction and revealed a look of joy. The harvest this time was quite good, enough to support his cultivation for a while. When he turned around, he was startled and hurriedly bowed, "Greetings, Sir."
Lu Ye nodded softly and stepped forward with the demeanor of a Divine Sea Realm master, raising his hand and placing it on the Tian Ji Pillar.
Ying Wuji held his breath and quickly walked away.
He didn't know why, but every time he saw this Li Tai Bai, he felt an inexplicable sense of pressure. He was sure that he had never seen this person before, and it was impossible for him to have any relationship with him, but that inexplicable sense of pressure was real.
Although he didn't understand, Ying Wuji still secretly warned himself to stay as far away from this person as possible in the future. Cultivators followed their hearts, and it had to be said that as a Ghost Cultivator, Ying Wuji had a very strong sense of potential danger.
At the same time, somewhere in Thunder Province, a graceful figure flew through the air as a Divine Sea Realm insect flew towards her, its mandibles wriggling as it released a fierce aura.
When the graceful figure brushed past it, the insect suddenly stiffened, and it wasn't until the graceful figure flew a thousand meters away that it suddenly burst into a bloody mist.
She continued forward, and in her boredom, she habitually checked her Battlefield Mark.
In the past two years, this was what she had done the most. It wasn't that she was bored, but rather that she was using her Battlefield Mark to check whether someone was alive or not.
Originally, she thought that this time would be the same as before, and there wouldn't be any changes to the Battlefield Mark, but after a glance, the woman suddenly froze and hurriedly stopped.
The Battlefield Mark that hadn't changed for two years had actually changed, and it was now in a state where it could be contacted. In other words, that person had returned to the Nine Provinces.
This was really strange.
Since the small secret realm collapsed two years ago, that person had disappeared, and the Battlefield Mark had been in a state where it couldn't be contacted. The High Lord guessed that he should have gone to another small secret realm.
However, she couldn't figure out what kind of secret realm could trap a person for two years.
But no matter what, this was good news for her and the High Lord, because this person was someone that the High Lord thought highly of. It could be said that he was the best person to do something big. In the entire Nine Provinces, besides him, no one else could do it, including the omnipotent High Lord.
She hurriedly sent a message to the High Lord, "Lu Yiye has returned to the Nine Provinces."
After a few breaths, the High Lord replied, "Bring him here."
Yu Daiwei stuck out her scarlet tongue, licked her lips, and said softly, "Little thing, don't even think about it this time. Last time, when she trapped him in the small secret realm and left Dao Thirteen to guard it, she thought that nothing would go wrong. But the High Lord thought that he had a way to escape, because he was a person with great luck and could do things that ordinary people couldn't.
Yu Daiwei thought that if she was in his situation, she would have no other choice but to die of old age in the small secret realm.
She had also checked on that kid's situation once in a while, wanting to see what tricks he could play.
But she didn't find any clues until one day, when she wanted to check on the situation again, she was surprised to find that the small secret realm where that kid was placed had collapsed.
She couldn't believe it.
She knew that the collapse of the small secret realm must have something to do with that kid, but she really couldn't understand how he did it. Although she didn't stay in the small secret realm all the time, she checked frequently and didn't find anything suspicious at all.
Just as the High Lord said, a person with such great luck always had things that ordinary people couldn't do.
The small secret realm had collapsed, the person had disappeared, and the Battlefield Mark had been in a state where it couldn't be contacted. After two years, that kid had finally returned. Compared to carrying out the mission given by the High Lord, she was more interested in knowing how he made the small secret realm disappear and where he had been for the past two years.
A woman's curiosity was extremely strong. Fortunately, these two things didn't conflict.
If she wanted to catch him, she had to determine his location first.
Fortunately, it wasn't difficult to do this in the Nine Provinces.
