The development of the martial arts exercise had always been under the close attention of the three divisions. Through the changes in the position of the light spots, they could easily infer the specific situation in the Black Abyss.
Seeing that the eastern side smoothly got the second spiritual ball, Chen Xuanhai and the others were also greatly surprised.
In the past, the process of the eastern division fighting for the Spirit Orbs had never been so smooth. Basically, the eastern division would take advantage of the fact that the other two divisions were busy transporting the Spirit Orbs and had no time to care about anything else. There were even many times when the eastern division would only be able to gather two Spirit Orbs when the last Spirit Orb appeared. This was because when the last Spirit Orb appeared, the other two divisions would already have three and four Spirit Orbs and would not be able to fight for more. Under such circumstances, the final Spirit Orb would inevitably belong to the eastern division.
But this time, the development of the situation was puzzling. The first spiritual ball was easy to explain, since the southern and western divisions gave it up, but what was the situation with the second spiritual ball?
Clearly, the cultivators of the southern and western divisions were moving closer to the location of the spiritual ball, but for some reason, they fought halfway, allowing the eastern side to pick up the second spiritual ball without any risk.
This situation, not to mention Chen Xuanhai and the others, even the southern and western division's Rizhao were very puzzled. They didn't know what their little brats were doing.
Before the martial arts exercise, they did tell them not to suppress the eastern side too much. The eastern side was already miserable enough. Although they were divided into three divisions, they were still one family after all. When faced with a foreign enemy, they had to work together. But not suppressing them didn't mean they had to be so modest.
Although they could infer the situation in the Black Abyss, they didn't know what was going on inside, so they couldn't interfere.
In the silence, Chen Xuanhai angrily said, "If you want to fart, hurry up and do it, don't hold it in!"
A western division's Rizhao smiled and said, "Brother Chen, what are you saying … In any case, I still have to congratulate Brother Chen. The eastern side completed the task ahead of time. This generation of eastern constellations … is very good!"
The implication was that the eastern side only needed to get two spiritual balls, and they didn't need to continue to interfere with the rest.
The southern division's Zhu Laoer understood and laughed in a low voice.
Chen Xuanhai coldly snorted, regretting his words. The younger generation was incompetent. As the elders, they couldn't fight back when they were ridiculed by others.
Not only did the Rizhao people think that the Eastern side had completed the task ahead of time, even the Eastern constellations in the Black Abyss who participated in this matter also thought so.
When the second Spirit Ball was safely placed, everyone's faces lit up with joy, and some even laughed out loud.
Even Haitang let out a long sigh.
Now that they had two goals in their hands, even if they didn't get anything later, they wouldn't lose too badly.
When Lu Ye saw this, he wanted to open his mouth and persuade them not to be so easily satisfied. After all, he still had the task of taking second place. If everyone was satisfied, what would happen to him? He couldn't possibly fight alone.
However, before he could open his mouth, Haitang spoke first. "We have such a perfect start, so we should continue to work hard and fight for more. If we can snatch three Spirit Orbs, we can wipe away our previous humiliation and restore our eastern glory. What do you all think?"
Everyone's morale was greatly boosted by Haitang's words. The number of spirit balls determined the strength of the headquarters for the next fifty years. At this moment, they were shouldering such a sacred mission. They had the opportunity to complete the feat that their ancestors had failed to accomplish. If they could accomplish it, they would be respected by future generations.
So they all said, "We will follow Senior Sister's arrangements!"
Haitang turned to look at Lu Ye. "Junior Brother Lu, didn't you promise the Southern side to help them? Now that the two sides are fighting for the Spirit Orbs, it's time to fulfill the agreement. "
When the Eastern side was transporting the Spirit Orbs, the fifth Spirit Orb had already appeared. The Southern and Western sides must be fighting for it.
If the Eastern side rushed over at this time to help the Southern side, the Western side would definitely lose!
Lu Ye nodded. "Since it's an agreement, we naturally have to abide by it, lest others say that we don't keep our word." Changing the topic, he said, "But I suggest that we don't go to the location where they are fighting, and there's no need to directly participate in the battle between them."
Haitang asked, "Then what should we do?"
Lu Ye turned his head and looked in a direction. "Let's go there!"
Everyone followed his gaze and was stunned for a moment. When they looked at Lu Ye again, their faces were full of shock. They didn't expect him to have such a proposal.
If this kind of thing was done, then they would really fight to the death with the Western side!
After all, that direction was where the Western camp was located!
They were going to raid the camp.
It wasn't that this kind of thing hadn't happened in history, but it was basically impossible to succeed. This was because the other side's cultivators could immediately react after sensing the movement of the Spirit Orb and quickly return to help. It was very easy for them to snatch the Spirit Orb back.
Lu Ye saw everyone's expressions and knew what they were thinking. He shook his head and said, "It's not a raid, it's a raid!"
If they really did raid the camp, the Western side would definitely react immediately. They would most likely give up on fighting with the Southern side and return to the camp to defend. In this way, they would be able to fulfill the agreement with the Southern side, but Lu Ye didn't just want to fulfill the agreement with the Southern side.
What he wanted to do was stall for time!
Let the Southern side and the Western side fight for a longer time. This way, it would be more convenient for his next plan! If the two sides stopped fighting, his plan wouldn't be able to be carried out.
Haitang reacted. "Junior Brother Lu means to intercept the Western side's cultivators who have died in battle and are returning to the battlefield after being reborn."
"That's right!"
Haitang nodded. "That's good too. If we don't directly interfere in the battle between the two sides, we won't completely offend them."
Lu Ye knew that Haitang's thoughts were still too simple. She felt that this wouldn't completely offend them, but in reality, if the Eastern side really started to raid people, the effect would be no different from raiding the camp. The Western side would definitely hold a grudge against the Eastern side and would most likely target and suppress them.
However, there was no need to explain these considerations to Haitang.
In the end, he would have to offend one of the Southern and Western Divisions. Previously, the Southern side had agreed to Lu Ye's conditions, so he could only choose to offend the Western side.
After the discussion, everyone immediately rushed in that direction.
When they reached the center of the Western Camp and the Spirit Orb that was being fought over, Lu Ye and the others immediately scattered and hid on a nearby meteorite. At the same time, they concealed their figures and restrained their auras.
Not long after, a streak of light hurriedly rushed over from the Western Camp. It was clearly a Western cultivator who had been reborn and was rushing to the battlefield.
Judging from the other party's Spirit Qi fluctuations, he was only at the early stage of the Constellation Realm. This was normal. In such a great battle, those with lower cultivation would ultimately be at a disadvantage and would be in more danger.
This person was only focused on rushing over. How could he have known that there would be a group of people with ill intentions lying in ambush in such a place?
When he entered the ambush, Han Molong was the first to jump out and block him. Only then did he realize that something was wrong. However, it was already too late to run. Han Molong's team of three worked together and easily entangled him.
They didn't kill him, mainly because Lu Ye had told Han Molong to just keep him busy.
In such a situation, this person was so angry that he started to shout and curse, shouting that he would definitely return and make the Eastern side pay the price. However, he couldn't shake the hearts of Han Molong and the others in the slightest.
Since they had already decided to do this, they wouldn't be overcautious anymore.
While the battle was lively here, another streak of light rushed over from the Western Camp. From afar, Lu Ye could sense that this person was at the middle stage of the Constellation Realm.
From the looks of it, the battle between the two groups was obviously very fierce. Even a middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator had died in battle.
In a lineup of nine people, a middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator could play a significant role. He was naturally anxious to return to the battlefield. However, from afar, he saw Han Molong and the others surrounding and killing his companions. He immediately stopped, his expression grave.
The appearance of the Eastern cultivators in this position was undoubtedly very thought-provoking. He didn't rush forward to save them mainly because he didn't see anyone else from the Eastern side.
However, at this moment, three figures suddenly appeared from the side. It was Haitang's team.
This person was shocked and instantly saw through the Eastern side's intentions. Just as he was about to escape from the side, Lu Ye led Huang Li and Xu Xinghe to meet them leisurely.
He almost didn't hesitate and directly pounced towards Lu Ye's team.
The situation was very obvious. Of the two teams that surrounded him, one had a middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator and the other didn't. He would naturally choose the one without a middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator as it would be easier to break through.
At the same time, he shouted, "Eastern side, are you colluding with the Southern side?"
Lu Ye turned a deaf ear and rushed towards this person.
The moment their spiritual energy collided, Lu Ye unsheathed the long saber at his waist. In an instant, a murderous intent flashed through the air.
This middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator screamed and couldn't help but retreat. On his waist, there was a bone-deep wound. His flesh and blood rolled, and blood gushed out.
Before he could stabilize his body, Haitang's team had already rushed over and brought him into their attack range.
Like Han Molong's team, Haitang's team only stalled and didn't kill. Originally, even if Haitang's team had two clansmen to help, it wouldn't be easy to stall the other party. After all, in terms of the consolidation of the middle stage Constellation Realm, the other party had many more years than Haitang. In terms of individual strength, he was much more powerful than Haitang.
However, after being injured by Lu Ye's saber, it was impossible for this person to escape.
In addition, Lu Ye's gaze had been intentionally or unintentionally staring at him, causing him to be a little cautious.
Behind Lu Ye, Huang Li and Xu Xinghe were shocked. They didn't know how strong Lu Ye was before. They only thought that since everyone's cultivation was about the same, their strength was probably about the same. It wasn't until that saber slash that the two of them realized that Lu Ye's strength was not something they could compare to.
A middle stage Constellation Realm cultivator was actually injured by him with a single slash. Even with the help of the two of them, his own foundation wasn't strong enough, so he couldn't do it to this extent.
The external aid that the headquarters invited this time seemed to be quite incredible!
