When Lu Ye retracted his aura and rushed to the tunnel next door, he saw that fellow Daoist was chasing after a ball of dense spiritual light in a small area, jumping up and down.
He didn't know what that ball of light was, but it didn't seem to have the aura of a living creature. However, its speed was incredibly fast. Even though the cultivator wasn't slow, he couldn't catch up.
The ball of light repeatedly tried to break through the encirclement in the direction of the spirit jade mine, but it was intercepted every time.
Lu Ye only needed to observe for a moment to understand that a Spirit Formation had been set up here. However, the person who set up the Spirit Formation wasn't very skilled, so there were still some gaps. The gap was in the direction of the spirit jade mine.
This was also the reason why the ball of light was trying to break through in this direction. It had clearly sensed that this was where the life gate was.
After observing for a while longer, Lu Ye realized that it would be very difficult for this fellow Daoist to capture the ball of light. If this continued, the ball of light might break through the range of the formation and he would have to flee.
With a thought, he rushed forward. Before he arrived, he had already thrown out a few Spirit Formation Flags.
In the blink of an eye, he landed at a gap in the Spirit Formation and his spiritual power surged out in all directions.
Seeing Lu Ye arrive, Du Lang wasn't surprised. After all, they weren't far from each other, so Lu Ye could easily detect his movements.
Seeing Lu Ye's actions, Du Lang immediately understood his intentions and immediately urged his spiritual power to connect with the Spirit Formation he had set up.
There was no verbal communication, and they weren't even familiar with each other, but they had formed a certain tacit understanding.
Lu Ye obtained control of Du Lang's incomplete Spirit Formation and with the help of the Spirit Formation flags he had just set up, as well as his own adjustments, the Spirit Formation quickly became complete and even had a certain binding effect.
When he activated the power of the formation, an invisible binding force suddenly descended from the sky, and the rapidly moving ball of light clearly stagnated, greatly reducing its speed.
Du Lang was overjoyed and quickly rushed forward. He opened the bag he had been holding in one hand and quickly collected the ball of light. Then he closed the bag and revealed a happy expression.
At the same time, Lu Ye dispersed the Spirit Formation's power and withdrew from the control center of the Spirit Formation. He raised his hand and put away his Spirit Formation flags.
Du Lang laughed, "Many thanks, Brother. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid it really would have escaped." "
He sighed in his heart. Indeed, being kind to others is being kind to oneself.
Previously, he had given some Jade Eating Ants to Lu Ye, and within a few days, Lu Ye had returned the favor. The harvest this time was more than what he had given out.
The spiritual jades collected by the Jade Eating Ants were much more valuable.
Lu Ye nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions. He turned around and returned to his mining tunnel to continue working as a miner.
Day after day passed. Within the spirit jade mine, the two of them had nothing to do with each other as they worked hard to mine spirit jades.
His clone continued to roam outside, but even though the Alpha-Origin stage had narrowed down the search area, it was still not easy for him to find anything.
It was easy, and because it was not good for the clone to be too far away from the main body.
They had to be within the range of the teleportation, only then would Mu Xi be able to send five reinforcements at any time. This undoubtedly greatly limited the range that the doppelganger could move about in.
Therefore, there was basically nothing to gain.
Another ten days later, a buzzing sound came from the heavens and earth again. At the same time, Lu Ye felt that the pounding force coming from a certain direction had increased significantly.
Moreover, this repulsive force was increasing with the passage of time.
Hence, he knew that he didn't have much time left in this place. The changes in the Alpha-Origin stage were urging the cultivators that were still within the range to gather together. When the repulsive force reached a certain level, it was impossible not to leave even if one didn't want to.
Lu Ye decided to leave one day before the Alpha-Origin stage narrowed down the search area for the third time.
A few days later, Dou Lang walked over from his own tunnel with a few jugs of wine.
He had come to express his thanks. Previously, when Lu Ye had helped him, he had not expressed much. Moreover, everyone had been immersed in the joy of the spiritual jades.
It was not good to waste too much time.
Now that there was not much time left, and the harvest was already sufficient, his mood had completely relaxed.
Lu Ye naturally couldn't refuse the other party's great hospitality, and thus casually chatted with him over the wine.
It was only at this time that the two of them introduced themselves to each other. While chatting, Lu Ye learned that Dou Lang came from a domain called the Chi Sky Continent. Unlike the Nine Prefectures, the Chi Sky Continent had gradually begun to decline a thousand years ago.
Originally, although the Chi Sky Continent was not a top-tier domain, it was still a very good large-scale domain. Every once in a while, many Constellation stage cultivators would appear.
However, since a thousand years ago, the number of Constellation stage cultivators that could be born in the Chi Sky Continent had become fewer and fewer. Until the last hundred years, there were very few.
This was the result of the world's foundation being lost, and its level gradually falling.
According to Yang Qing, when a domain's foundation was strong enough, the world's will would instinctively respond to the cultivators' desire to ascend. Thus, there would be a divine light that would descend from the heavens, allowing Divine Sea stage cultivators to have the power to connect with the starry sky and advance to the Constellation stage.
Of course, in the Nine Prefectures, Little Nine was consciously doing this.
However, if the world's level fell, then the world's will would instinctively protect itself, and it would no longer be able to satisfy the cultivators' desire.
This was because every bit of power that could allow a cultivator to ascend to the Constellation stage was a considerable loss to the world's foundation.
It could be foreseen that if this situation continued, it would not take many years for the Chi Sky Continent to fall to the level of the previous Nine Prefectures, and it would become weaker and weaker.
Therefore, the Chi Sky Continent urgently needed a large amount of spirit jade. The experts of the Chi Sky Continent wanted to slow down the aging of the domain by dispersing the energy in the spirit jade.
This was just a concept, and no one knew whether it would work, but they had to give it a try.
Currently, there were not many cultivators above the Constellation stage on the Chi Sky Continent. Even if they searched for spirit jade in the starry sky, what they could obtain was limited.
Therefore, Dou Lang wanted to help out! It just so happened that he had a road map left behind by the seniors of the domain, which he had been searching for after entering the Alpha Origin stage.
After searching for the Spirit Jade Vein, the result … was naturally not bad.
In particular, Lu Ye had helped him capture that ball of spirit jade a few days ago. He did not know whether the spirit jade's energy could extend the domain's cultivation after dispersing, but according to the seniors, that ball of spirit jade could definitely do so. However, that thing was extremely rare and could only be encountered by chance.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Lu Ye's actions at that time had helped him a lot.
"So Brother Dou is not going to participate in the upcoming battle for the Divine Sea?" Lu Ye was enlightened.
The main purpose of Dou Jian's trip this time was to mine spirit jade. Now that he had a harvest, the rest was not important.
Dou Lang smiled. "I want to participate too, but the risk is too great. To be honest, although I have some confidence in my own strength, there's still a gap between me and those fellows from the top domains. The battle for the Deity Ocean is too dangerous. If I accidentally fall, then my one month of hard work will be for naught. It's not that I'm afraid of death. "
Lu Ye nodded in understanding.
He suddenly understood why Dou Jian did not attack him when they first met. It was because Dou Jian's goal was not the battle for the Divine Sea. Therefore, it did not matter to him whether he killed or not.
In any case, the spirit jade vein was so big that it did not matter if it was one person or two people. Even if a few more people came, it would not affect his harvest.
Of course, this might also have something to do with his nature. Dou Lang's temperament was not bad, and he was not the kind of person who liked to bully the weak.
He was even willing to share his Jade Eating Ants with him.
"My situation is special. Brother Lu, you don't have to rely on me. If Brother feels confident, he will still fight, but Brother's cultivation … is indeed a shortcoming. If you really show it in front of others, it will easily attract attention. "
Everyone knew that persimmons were easy to pinch. An Eighth Order cultivator was unique in this place, and it was likely that everyone would want to pinch him.
Dou Lang did not try to persuade Lu Ye. The most taboo thing for cultivators was to talk too much. They were all at the Divine Sea Realm, so who didn't know?
Lu Ye dared to come here with his Eighth Order cultivation, so he must have something to rely on. Dou Lang only cared about his own people, so there was no need for him to worry about others.
The third time the Alpha-Origin shrank was approaching, and the most obvious feeling was that the repulsive force was getting stronger and stronger. It was so strong that cultivators had to circulate their Spirit Qi to resist the repulsive force, otherwise, they would be pushed away.
Lu Ye got up. "Brother Dou, I should set off. "
Dou Lang nodded and cupped his fists. "Then I wish Brother a smooth journey ahead. "
"Thank you!" Lu Ye turned his head and looked to the side. "These Jade Eating Ants …"
Dou Lang waved his hand. "Since they are given to Brother, there is no reason to take them back. It is not troublesome to raise them, you just need to give them Spirit Stones. " "
There were still many Jade Eating Ants on the Red Sky Continent. If he wanted, he could go back and replenish them, but Lu Ye could not.
Lu Ye thanked him and walked to the side. He put away the Jade Ants and the Spirit Jades they had mined, and then he flashed out.
There was no need to deliberately distinguish the direction, just follow the direction of the repulsive force. His clone was one step ahead.
In the dark mine tunnel, only Dou Lang was left drinking to drown his sorrows.
It was the greatest opportunity for the Divine Sea Realm that occurred once every hundred years. How lucky he was to be able to participate, but because of some special reasons, he was unable to persist until the end. For someone like him, wasn't this a huge regret?
If he missed this opportunity, there would be no next time in his life.
He spoke freely to Lu Ye, but the bitterness in his heart was something only he knew.
On one hand, it was an opportunity that belonged to him, and on the other hand, it was a possibility related to the future of this realm. Even if he had made up his mind long ago, he could not help but waver at this juncture.
There is a small problem with my body and I need to be hospitalized for surgery. Recently, I will try to keep updating as much as possible. I hope all my brothers and sisters are healthy and free from illness.
