On the Wushuang Continent, a large number of cultivators above the Nine Prefectures True Lake Stage poured in, causing this originally lifeless region to become extraordinarily lively.
The current situation of the Nine Prefectures was very clear. The Spirit Stream Stage cultivators had fun in the Spirit Stream Battlefield, the Cloud River Stage cultivators had the Cloud River Battlefield for them to vent their energy and compete with each other, and the True Lake Stage cultivators could head to the Wushuang Continent to kill the Corpse Race and obtain military merits to cultivate.
It had already been a year since the passage between the two worlds opened. Within this one year, the number of True Lake Stage cultivators that came from the Nine Continents to the Wushuang Continent was at least in the hundreds of thousands. As time passed, this number would only continue to grow.
Thanks to Yue Xin's painstaking arrangement, the Nine Prefectures' cultivators used the formation to teleport to the Wushuang Continent did not consume much of the Nine Prefectures' foundation. What was consumed was only the energy accumulated by the transfer formations on the desolate stars.
This was not Yue Xin's kindness, but he had his eyes on the Nine Prefectures and wanted to occupy this rapidly growing region. Naturally, he would not do anything that would damage the region's foundation.
Unfortunately, his arrangement was thorough, and in the end, it only benefited the Nine Prefectures' cultivators, while he was killed by Yang Qing.
Currently, on the Wushuang Continent, with the formation left behind by Yue Xin as the center, the Nine Prefectures' cultivators had already explored hundreds of thousands of miles.
Such an area was already not small, but compared to the size of the entire Wushuang Continent, it was only the tip of the iceberg. The Wushuang Continent was also extremely vast, and its complete size was not much different from the Nine Prefectures.
It could be foreseen that the existence of the Wushuang Continent would cause the Nine Prefectures' cultivators to suffer for many years. Before the Corpse Race on the Wushuang Continent was exterminated, the Nine Prefectures' cultivators did not have to worry about obtaining military merits. As for what would happen after that … Who could say for sure what would happen after hundreds of years? Perhaps by then, there would be some unexpected changes in the Nine Prefectures' situation.
There would finally be a place where cultivators could obtain military merits.
In a mountain valley, an intense battle was going on.
A burly figure that was like an iron tower stood on the spot like a small mountain. No matter how fierce the attacks were, it was difficult to shake the sturdy defensive line built by this body.
The bare-chested Giant Armor exerted force under his feet. His entire body seemed to be nailed to the ground, and he did not move an inch as he blocked wave after wave of Corpse Race's fierce attacks.
Beside him, Xiao Xinghe's long saber slashed the Corpse Race into halves one after another. Corpse blood splattered everywhere.
On the other side, Li Baxian's flying swords were flying back and forth. The resplendent sword light was wreaking havoc among the zombies.
There was also Feng Yuechan and Yiyi's magical techniques, which were dazzling. Within the horde of corpses, there was a petite figure that appeared from time to time, harvesting to her heart's content. It was Lin Yinxiu. When the tiger's roar shook the heavens, Hu Po's imposing aura leaped back and forth. Wherever the tiger's claws landed, there would definitely be corpses that would lose their lives.
The change in the structure of the Nine Regions also impacted the Law Division of the Force Province. At present, the Law Division only existed in name. Even the head of the Law Division, Qian Wudang, had been promoted to a constellation and left the Nine Regions. However, the configuration of each team still remained.
Team D9 was one of them. Normally, they would hunt the Corpse Race on the Wushuang Continent to obtain battle merits. Only when they encountered a large group of Corpse Race would they regroup and work together to kill the enemy.
The scale of this zombie horde was not small, and it was precisely the prey that Team D9 liked. A few days ago, Lin Yin Xiu had discovered traces of this zombie horde, and had sent a message to gather all the team members scattered around. What followed after was this kind of battle.
Now, all the members of Team D9 were in the Divine Sea Realm. Although their levels were not very high, with the help of the Twin Qi Connected Spirit Array, they could still exert strength beyond their own level.
The battle had begun before dawn. Until now, the size of the Corpse Race had only been reduced by half.
"Third Senior Brother, I think we should retreat first!" In the fierce battle, Li Baxian shouted loudly.
Xiao Xinghe also had the same feeling. It was not that Team D9 was weak, or that the Corpse Race was too strong. Although there were many powerful Corpse Race members in the Corpse Race, who were even stronger than them individually, because of their low intelligence, it was not too difficult to deal with them.
The key was that when fighting against the Corpse Race, they had to constantly channel their spiritual energy to resist the invasion of the corpse poison. Moreover, they had to be very careful not to get injured. Otherwise, once the corpse poison invaded, it would become very troublesome.
This would undoubtedly consume a lot of spiritual energy for every cultivator.
After dealing with half of the Corpse Race in one go, after resting and reorganizing, they could come back and deal with the other half. This was also the most suitable response.
Just as he was about to respond, Xiao Xinghe suddenly felt something. He raised his head and looked in a direction, only to see a stream of light rushing towards them with a panicked aura.
Xiao Xinghe's face lit up because he felt a sense of familiarity from the aura of this person.
Hu Po's howl also became more and more excited. Even Yiyi showed a look of joy.
The flowing light quickly rushed forward, and then a saber light slashed down like a waterfall. The few strongest members of the Corpse Clan were instantly split into two halves, greatly reducing the pressure on the defense line built by the giant armor.
Everyone in Team D9 looked up and saw Lu Ye looking at them with a smile. "Everyone, is there anything you need help with?"
Li Baxian smiled. "Little Junior Brother, don't do anything. These are all battle achievements!"
"Retreat first!" Xiao Xinghe raised his arm and called out. Hu Po was the first to turn around and rush out of the battlefield. Before he left, he rushed to Yiyi and Feng Yuechan's side, biting them one by one and throwing them onto his back.
Lin Yin Xiu's figure disappeared. Only the faint ripples in the air showed the traces of her movement. After reaching Divine Sea, ghost cultivators' methods became more and more mysterious and unpredictable.
Li Baxian shot out a river of sword qi and flew away.
Xiao Xinghe also retreated bravely. In the end, he was left with the giant armor. After blocking the attacks of the zombies for a while, he turned around and allowed the attacks to land on his strong back. With loud bangs, he ran far away like a puff of smoke.
A moment later, in a wilderness a hundred li away from the battlefield, the members of Team J gathered.
Yiyi jumped into Lu Ye's embrace with joy. Hu Po also turned into the size of a cat and jumped onto his shoulder, rubbing his head against his cheek.
Li Baxian clicked his tongue in wonder. "After not seeing you for a year, Little Junior Brother's strength has become even more profound."
When Lu Ye came over just now, his Spirit Energy fluctuations had already reached the Ninth Order Divine Sea Realm. He was only one step away from breaking through to Star Mansion.
This kind of cultivation speed was really enviable. Back then, he and Feng Yuechan's cultivation was much higher than Lu Ye's. Xiao Xinghe's cultivation was even higher, but now, Lu Ye had left them far behind.
Compared to other cultivators, these people present were all extremely talented.
All of them were peerless talents, but compared to Lu Ye, they all paled in comparison.
There was no resentment or jealousy. The faster Lu Ye grew and the higher he stood, the happier they were. Everyone had their own opportunities. Everyone had to compare themselves to not others on the road of growth, but themselves. Only by constantly surpassing themselves could they become stronger and walk further. For people like them, this was something they could still understand.
"Are you going to advance to Star Mansion?" Xiao Xinghe looked Lu Ye up and down.
Lu Ye rubbed Yiyi's little head and smiled slightly. "Within a month."
It was precisely because he was about to advance to Star Mansion that he deliberately came to the Peerless Continent to look for his friends.
Because once he advanced to Star Mansion, he would have to leave the Nine States and go deep into the Starry Sky. At that time, it would not be so easy to meet with his old friends.
At the very least, before leaving the Nine States, he wanted to say goodbye to these few friends and relatives.
"That's fast!" Xiao Xinghe could not help but be a little surprised.
[Shh.]
Lin Yin Xiu was still as carefree as ever. She greeted Lu Ye enthusiastically, "Captain!
Ju Jia was also the same as before. He just smiled at Lu Ye.
After chatting for a while, Lu Ye winked at Li Baxian. "I brought good wine!"
Li Baxian licked his lips and could not help but glance at Feng Yuechan. Against his will, he said, "Senior Brother, I've quit!"
Feng Yuechan could not help but roll her eyes. "It's okay to drink less!"
Li Baxian was overjoyed.
Thus, the group sat down in a circle. Lu Ye took out the good wine and fruits he brought and placed them on the table. Everyone drank and chatted, as if they had returned to the carefree time when their cultivation was still low.
Everyone talked about their experiences on the Peerless Continent in recent years. Lu Ye talked about how Yang Qing had brought him to the Reincarnation Tree to compete in the Alpha Origin stage, which made everyone yearn for it.
Unfortunately, the Alpha Origin stage only opened once every hundred years, and there was only one spot for each domain. No matter what, it would not be their turn.
The meal lasted from dusk to dawn, and from dawn to dusk. When the last drop of wine was drunk, Xiao Xinghe stood up and said with a smile, "Junior Brother, I'll go first. There's still a long way to go. We will meet again in the Starry Sky in the future."
He stretched out his hand and placed it across the air.
Everyone got up and placed their hands on his. Lu Ye said, "Then I'll go scout the way first and wait for senior brothers and sisters to arrive!"
It was difficult to meet and difficult to part, but there was no such thing as a parting. Team D9 still had to deal with the remaining half of the zombie horde, and Lu Ye still had to find traces of another person.
Yiyi did not show much reluctance this time.
Even Hu Po seemed to be free and easy as he left with Yiyi. The spirit and tiger both knew that if they wanted to fight side by side with Lu Ye again, they would have to work hard in their cultivation. Even if they could not catch up to him, they could not be left too far behind. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to cross paths in the future.
Yiyi and Hu Po had already realized this a long time ago. As the gap between their cultivation bases gradually widened, they were destined to face different situations.
However, they both believed that this situation was only temporary. As long as they worked hard enough, there would be a day when they could stand by Lu Ye's side and fight against powerful enemies together!
As the sun rose from the east, Lu Ye gazed at the figures waving their arms with their backs facing him, and much of the worry and reluctance in his heart disappeared.
If Yiyi and Hu Po had such resolve, there was no reason why he couldn't!
After bidding farewell to team D9, there was only one person left. The question now was … where should he find her?
