The origin of the enemy was unknown, their goal was unknown, and the situation of the Wushuang Continent was unknown. The situation was quite bad.
Lu Ye frowned inwardly. If he had known earlier, he would not have killed that soldier cultivator so quickly. He would have captured him alive and obtained some information.
However, he did not have the ability to predict the future. Before he killed the enemy, how could he have known that the situation would be like this?
"This place is not close to the Wushuang Continent. The commotion from our previous battle should not have spread there." Feng Wujiang said, "Therefore, even if there are still two constellations inside, it's very likely that they have not noticed our arrival."
They might not even have noticed the death of their companion. The two constellations that were killed earlier did not have the chance or sign of sending a message.
"Sneak in, find them, and kill them one by one!" Someone said. Everyone nodded. Under the current circumstances, only this method was the safest. Even though they had 10 people on their side, it was impossible for them to attack openly, as that would only alert the enemy. Especially when the enemy had a cultivator at the advanced-stage of Starconstellation.
He had fought with the late-stage constellation of the Miniman Clan before and knew the strength of this level of cultivator. It was not something that the current Nine Prefectures Constellations could contend against. Even if they had the absolute advantage in numbers, if they really fought, they might not be able to gain much of an advantage.
The Miniman Clan was affected by the environment they grew up in and their reliance on talismans. Their overall strength was actually weaker. This was something that Lu Ye had discovered before.
It was the same principle as the cultivators of the small sects in the Nine Prefectures. However, cultivators who relied too much on external forces would more or less affect the progress of their own strength.
After this time's Black Abyss Martial Arts Exhibition, the Miniman Clan members also discovered this problem. Or rather, they had discovered it long ago, but they did not have the courage to change it. This time, Lu Ye, a human, taught them a good lesson, and finally made them determined to change the situation. Lu Ye could defeat a late-stage constellation of the Miniman Clan in a head-on confrontation, but he might not be able to defeat a late-stage constellation of another race.
Especially when the other party was also a human!
After the discussion was settled, everyone immediately took action. A moment later, outside the Wushuang Continent, ten figures quietly sneaked into the realm.
When one's cultivation reached the level of constellation, no matter what sect they belonged to, they would more or less master some concealment methods.
Among the ten people, the concealment of Thought Moon Immortal and the other ghost cultivator was undoubtedly the most perfect. In this domain, ghost cultivators had an unparalleled advantage.
Next was Lu Ye.
The Concealment and Breath-holding Spiritual Tattoos were very effective when used below the Divine Sea Realm, but they were not good enough for the surveillance of Constellation Realm cultivators. These two spiritual tattoos were also part of Lu Ye's plan to re-deduce and improve them. However, due to his limited energy, it was not their turn yet.
As for the rest of the people … they could be considered to have concealed themselves, but it was hard to say how effective they would be.
The team of ten people was divided into five groups of two and spread out in all directions.
Lu Ye and the Thought Moon Immortal were together. There was only one thing they needed to do now, and that was to find the traces of the two foreign constellations. Then, they would act according to the circumstances.
It was not a simple task to search for traces of two people in such a large domain, especially when they were in a concealed state. No one could make too much noise.
However, Lu Ye's luck was surprisingly good, or rather, the other party had no intention of hiding at all.
A mass of ghastly black fog was rolling on top of a mountain peak. Ghostly wails and howls could be heard from within, sounding extremely horrifying. There were also many miserable shrieks, as if someone was being tortured.
When they heard these sounds and saw the scale of the black fog, both Lu Ye and the Thought Moon Immortal's hearts sank. They had some vague guesses.
When they got closer, they were even more certain of their guesses. This was because a large banner could be vaguely seen fluttering in the wind amidst the rolling black fog. A graceful figure sat upright under the banner. The black fog rolled, and the figure was faintly discernible. She was like a true ghost.
"The Myriad Soul Banner!" The Thought Moon Immortal secretly transmitted her voice to Lu Ye. Lu Ye's expression was grave, and she nodded slightly.
After studying a sea of jade slips in the Minor Human Tribe's Rest Abyss Pavilion, the two of them had some basic understanding of many things in the cosmos.
The various information about the Myriad Soul Banner was recorded in a jade slip in the Rest Abyss Pavilion.
The reason why there were records was mainly because this item was too famous. Moreover, the requirements to refine it were not high, and its might was not weak. It was very popular among cultivators with evil natures.
The Myriad Soul Banner was a treasure. Moreover, it was a treasure that could continuously improve its quality.
During the refining process, one needed to extract the Soul Avatar of a living being and seal it in the banner. The stronger the Soul Avatar sealed, the more powerful the Myriad Soul Avatar would be.
When facing an enemy, a banner could be summoned, and it could transform into a ghost domain to fight against the enemy.
The banner user could move freely within, and their figure was invisible. Those who were trapped would suffer the pain of the Soul Avatar's torture, and would have no way to escape.
The jade slip in the Rest Abyss Pavilion recorded that there was a precedent of a mighty expert summoning a banner to wipe out all the living beings in a large domain.
Because the refinement of this banner was extremely cruel and inhumane, on the surface, this thing could be considered a taboo item.
However, human nature was complicated. The more taboo it was, the more people would pursue it. Since ancient times, it was unknown how many people had refined this kind of evil treasure. It was also unknown how many living beings had suffered because of this treasure. Their Soul Avatar was trapped in the banner, suffering torture, and living a life worse than death.
Lu Ye did not expect to see something like the Myriad Soul Banner here. Moreover, looking at the scene in front of him, that person was obviously improving the quality of his Myriad Soul Banner.
He finally understood the purpose of the two enemy constellations entering the Wushuang Continent.
To the owner of the Myriad Soul Banner, the cultivators of the Nine Provinces in the Wushuang Continent were great materials to improve the quality of this evil banner.
Who knew how many cultivators of the Nine Provinces had already been killed.
The moment he received the news, he ordered the cultivators of the Nine Provinces to hide. However, the concealment of cultivators of the Divine Ocean Realm at most, how much effect could it have on the constellations? Unless they hid well enough, the constellations could still easily find them when they scanned with their divine sense.
He suppressed the nervousness in his heart and immersed his mind to check his battlefield imprint.
Third Senior Brother Xiao Xinghe's battlefield imprint was still there, which meant that he was still alive.
Fourth Senior Brother's was also there …
Lin Yinxiu, Feng Yuechan, and Yiyi were all there. Hua Ci … was also there!
He heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he could feel that there were indeed some people missing from his battlefield imprint. This also meant that these missing people were already dead.
However, he did not know if they died in the Nine Provinces or here, and there was no way to find out.
Silently observing, Lu Ye and Nian Yue Xian did not make a move. Although they found traces of one of the enemy constellations, the whereabouts of the other person …
They still needed to wait for Eldest Senior Brother and the others to investigate carefully.
However, they only waited for a moment before the sound of an intense battle suddenly came from a certain direction. It was obviously the aftermath of a battle between cultivators of the constellation level.
They were exposed!
The people of the Nine Provinces were all at the early stage of the constellation level, and they were not very proficient in concealment. If there was a difference in cultivation level, it was normal for them to be exposed.
Lu Ye immediately concluded that the person on his side was at the early stage of the constellation level! He could not judge the other party's cultivation level previously. The black fog of the Myriad Soul Banner was rolling, and the fluctuations of spiritual power were extremely heterogeneous. The interference was too serious.
However, the others had already been exposed, which meant that the other constellation's perception was very strong, and should be at the late stage of the constellation level.
Then the one on his side was definitely at the early stage.
Almost at the same time as the sound of the battle in the distance came, the graceful figure in the Myriad Soul Banner noticed it. However, before she could figure out the situation, in her perception, two sharp auras suddenly appeared nearby and locked onto her.
She quickly looked over, and through the black fog, she saw Lu Ye and Nian Yue Xian's figures suddenly burst out.
Nian Yue Xian's body merged with the sword light, and the speed that burst out in an instant was a bit faster than Lu Ye's. She plunged into the black fog of the Myriad Soul Banner, and the long sword in her hand bloomed with thousands of brilliance, like a waterfall pouring down on the other party.
The woman cried out in alarm and quickly urged the power of the Myriad Soul Banner. In an instant, the sound of wailing ghosts and howling wolves became louder and louder.
Lu Ye followed closely behind Nian Yue Xian into the banner's domain and immediately felt the strange power of the banner.
The divine soul was obviously impacted. The impact was not great, but it was extremely frequent. Coupled with the sound of wailing ghosts and howling wolves, it was easy for people with weak minds to lose their minds.
However, the two people who had broken into the banner's domain at this moment, one was a Sword Cultivator known for his slaughter and the other was a Weapon Cultivator who had experienced many battles, so this method had little effect on the two of them.
In the banner's domain, countless sealed Soul Avatars pounced at the two of them like ants. Once bitten, they were bound to suffer a great deal of soul damage.
Pain in their souls.
Lu Ye's saber flew out, and with a series of shrill screams, the Soul Avatars that pounced at him collapsed and turned into nothingness.
The Soul Severing Saber was a treasure that specifically targeted the soul, so how could these Soul Avatars sealed in the banner block his attack?
Riding the wind and breaking the waves, he was invincible, and under the horrified gaze of the Banner Master, he arrived in front of him.
The anger in his heart made him want to chop this woman to pieces, but in the end, he did not do so. He just stabbed his saber straight through the other party's heart!
Taking a closer look, he found that this woman was extremely beautiful, and her demeanor was full of a sense of weakness. Anyone who saw her would feel pity for her.
But the things she did, her heart was like a scorpion's!
Lu Ye arrived first, subduing the woman with a single strike of his saber. Nian Yue Xian also arrived, her sword resting on the other party's slender white neck. The sharp edge of the sword cut through the other party's skin, causing blood to flow. This dark red color in the dark ghost domain was particularly dazzling.
The two of them stood on the left and right, each of them releasing a biting cold killing intent. The woman in the middle trembled, her expression terrified.
She had never imagined that she would suffer such an unexpected calamity while trying to improve the quality of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner!
"I'll only say it once. Do as I say!" Lu Ye looked at the woman, his expression calm, "Nod if you understand!"
The woman nodded obediently. She could feel that the man in front of her was boiling with anger under his calm appearance. The more such a person was, the more terrifying they were.
