The Qingli Palace occupied a huge area and was a cluster of palaces not far from the Qingfeng City. Compared to the quiet Qingli Palace, the Qingfeng City was much livelier.
The cultivators from the Upper Bound would not stay for long and would usually depart within ten days. However, there was news that the cultivators would leave the Qingfeng World the next day. Obviously, they were in a hurry to return to the Upper Bound.
No one knew why, because nothing like this had ever happened before.
Zhou Dingtian and the others did not want to go back so soon. After all, they were tired from the journey and needed a rest. However, the information that Lu Ye revealed to them was unusual. Especially Tang Xiaoyue, who could not wait to go back to the Qingli World. How could she be in the mood to stay?
Tang Xiaoyue and Sun Ye had not recovered from their injuries and were recuperating. Zhou Dingtian had too many doubts and took the initiative to visit Lu Ye to find out more information.
However, Lu Ye did not say too much because it was meaningless to tell Zhou Dingtian the details. When he returned to the Qingli World and met Wu Zhuo, he only needed to show Wu Zhuo the jade slip that Tang Jun gave him and everything would be clear.
The Qingli World still needed Wu Zhuo to be the master. After all, Zhou Dingtian was just a constellation.
A female cultivator dressed as a maid was ordered to serve spiritual fruits and wine. Lu Ye did not care at first, but when he saw Zhu Yue, his eyes suddenly twitched.
He finally remembered what he had forgotten during the day.
He left Zhu Yue beside the abyss and forgot to bring her back. He felt a little apologetic. A few thousand miles was nothing to him, but flying back from a real lake took some effort.
If he was not mistaken, when he took Zhu Yue away, she was about to participate in the competition …
Zhu Yue was about to leave after serving the spiritual fruits when she heard Lu Ye ask, "How was the competition?"
Zhu Yue was stunned for a moment before she realized that Lu Ye was talking to her. She looked nervous and quickly lowered her head to reply, "Master, the time was wrong, so I forfeited."
She didn't know how terrifying Lu Ye's cultivation was before, so she wasn't too nervous when facing Lu Ye. But after seeing Lu Ye's power, she didn't dare to overstep her boundaries. Moreover, it was the honor of her sect to be dispatched here to serve a Superior Cultivator. If she didn't do well and angered the Superior Cultivator, it would implicate the entire sect.
"What a pity!" Lu Ye said.
Zhu Yue respectfully withdrew.
Zhou Dingtian asked with interest, "You know this lady?"
Lu Ye then casually explained to Zhou Dingtian about how she had caught Zhu Yue's able-bodied man. Only then did Zhou Dingtian understand that Zhu Yue had missed the time of the Grand Competition because of Lu Ye.
Zhou Dingtian did not manage to get too much information from Lu Ye, so he could only leave. Anyway, no matter what Lu Ye's purpose was, since he was going to the Qingli Dao World, he would know when he met the Hall Master.
The next day, outside the Green Li Palace, all the sect leaders of the major sects of the Clear Wind Realm gathered. They looked at the spirit vessel hovering in front of the palace with reverence.
Below the spirit boat, there were 30 people waiting excitedly. These 30 people were the winners of this grand competition and were about to enter the Qingli Dao World to cultivate.
The 30 people stood in three rows. The 10 True Lake Realm cultivators were still okay. After all, their cultivation was higher and they were calmer. The Ling Xi and Yunhe Realms were more lively. They stood there proudly. Some of the braver ones even looked up to admire the mystery of the spirit boat. Every time this happened, the elders of their sects would secretly admonish them, telling them to behave.
After waiting for a long time, the gate of the Green Li Palace opened and a group of people walked out. The sect leaders all looked serious and bowed respectfully. They shouted in unison, "Welcome, Superior Cultivator."
Zhou Dingtian and Lu Ye walked side by side in the front. Tang Xiaoyue and Sun Ye followed behind. Beside Tang Xiaoyue was Li Shang, who was carrying Yaya.
"Brother Lu, please!" Zhou Dingtian gestured as they walked to the front of the star boat.
Lu Ye did not decline. He stepped forward and landed on the boat. Zhou Dingtian and the rest followed closely behind. Sun Ye did not get on the boat. He looked at the 30 people. Under their burning gazes, he said, "Everyone is here. Let's get on the boat!"
The True Lake Realm cultivators activated their spiritual energy and wrapped the Ling Xi cultivators beside them. They landed on the star boat. The Yunhe Realms cultivators were self-reliant. The star boat was not very tall, so it was not difficult to fly up. In the blink of an eye, all 30 people were on the boat.
The group of sect leaders below all revealed gratified expressions. Those cultivators who didn't make it into the top ten were naturally envious.
Zhou Dingtian walked to the front of the deck and looked down. He suddenly said, "Where is Zhu Yue of the Zhengyang Sect?"
On the Zhengyang Sect's side, Sect Master Zhu Shang was shocked when he heard that. He hurriedly looked at Zhu Yue, wondering if she had done something wrong. Otherwise, why would a great cultivator from the Upper World suddenly call her name?
Zhu Yue was also confused. However, she answered and bowed. "Zhu Yue is here!"
Zhou Dingtian looked at her and smiled. "I am Zhu Yue of the Zhengyang Sect. You helped kill the beasts and protected the peace of a realm. However, you missed the time of the competition. Since your cultivation is good, I will allow you to follow me to the Qingli Dao World to cultivate. Are you willing to go?"
Zhu Yue was stunned.
It was true that she had missed the time of the competition. However, she had never helped kill the beasts and protected the peace of a realm. At most, she had only told Lu Ye a little information when he brought her. She thought that she would have to wait for another ten years after missing the competition. Who would have thought that there would be such a light at the end of the tunnel!
She suddenly remembered that the Superior Cultivator from the Upper Worlds asked her about the results of the competition last night. At that time, he did not say much, so she did not think much about it. She immediately understood that the Superior Cultivator from the Upper Worlds made an exception to bring her to the Upper Worlds. It was the result of the Superior Cultivator's casual question!
"What are you waiting for?" She heard Zhu Shang's anxious voice. Zhu Shang saw that she was in a daze and hurried to remind her.
Zhu Yue also came back to her senses. She quickly said, "I am willing to go!" This was her goal. How could she miss it?
Zhou Dingtian smiled and raised his hand. "If that's the case, then get on the ship!"
Zhu Yue looked back at Zhu Shang. Under Zhu Shang's urging gaze, she jumped hard and landed on the ship.
Next, Zhou Dingtian gave a few words of encouragement to the clan masters of this world. He reminded them to cultivate their own cultivators carefully and asked them to send more talented people to the Qingli Dao World. A group of clan masters agreed and gave him many cultivation resources, which earned the gratitude of everyone.
After a while, the ship shook and slowly rose into the sky.
On the deck, the thirty-one cultivators of the Clear Wind Realm, including Zhu Yue, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the bottom!
Although going to the Upper Worlds was the only way out for the cultivators of the Clear Wind Realm, and it was the goal of almost all cultivators, this could be a permanent separation.
If they wanted to return to the Clear Wind Realm, they had to cultivate to the Constellation Realm. After so many years, the Clear Wind Realm had sent many talents to the Qingli Dao World. But how many of them could cultivate to the Constellation Realm and return home?
There were many obstacles in the path of cultivation. If one could not overcome any of them, they could die.
The Star Boat rose into the sky and left. After a long time, the sect masters and sects that had gathered here slowly dispersed. The next time the Light Wind Realm would be so lively would be ten years later.
The thirty-one cultivators of the Clear Wind Realm were arranged in different cabins. It would take about two months to reach the Qingli Dao World.
Of course, that was the time it would take Zhou Dingtian and the others to sail their Star Boats. If Lu Ye were to sail his Star Boat alone, it would only take him a month. His Star Boat was much better than Zhou Dingtian's in all aspects.
However, he did not intend to rush them. He usually cultivated in his cabin. After all, it was only a month. Now that they had returned to the Jade Snail Galaxy, there was no need to rush.
Yaya could not stay idle. She ran around the ship all day, and Li Shang followed behind her like an old mother. It was very tiring.
Tang Xiaoyue wanted to visit Lu Ye several times to find out more about Tang Jun, but she did not have the chance. She had no choice but to give up.
The journey was peaceful.
About two months later, they arrived at the Qingli Dao World.
On the deck, Lu Ye and Zhou Dingtian stood side by side and looked at the world in front of them.
A large world like the Qingli Dao World, which had been promoted for thousands of years, was undoubtedly more magnificent than the Clear Wind Realm. Even if one did not go deep into the world, one could see some clues just by looking at the starry sky.
There were very few Yue Yao in the Qingli Dao World. Now, there was only one Wu Zhuo in the world. However, there were still many constellations. As early as a month ago, they could see some cultivators of constellations active in the starry sky. Sometimes, these cultivators who were searching for spiritual jades in the starry sky would come to the ship to greet Zhou Dingtian and the others.
This happened more frequently the closer they were to the Qingli Dao World.
Now that they were approaching the world, they could see traces of cultivators going in and out of the clouds from time to time.
When they entered the world, the ship landed directly on a spiritual island in the vast sea. According to Zhou Dingtian, the spiritual island was where the Divine Martial Hall was located. Since Lu Ye wanted to visit Wu Zhuo, he naturally had to go to the Divine Martial Hall first.
The ship landed on a huge square on the spiritual island. Lu Ye was looking around when he suddenly felt a strong divine thought from a certain direction on the spiritual island.
Lu Ye quickly looked in that direction and saw a spiritual mountain that stood like a sword. There was a tall tower on the peak. The divine thought came from the tower.
Wu Zhuo!
Lu Ye immediately identified the owner of the divine thought. In the entire Qingli Dao World, there was only one Yue Yao. It matched the information given by Tang Jun. Wu Zhuo was also a mid-stage Yue Yao.
The divine thought was obviously checking on Lu Ye. After all, no matter which world a strange cultivator came to, the owner of the world would be concerned.
Lu Ye saluted in that direction and said loudly, "I am Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens. I am here to visit you!"
The Divine Sense was originally just probing, but after hearing Lu Ye's words, it suddenly became much heavier and a vigorous voice came from the tower, "You want to be my friend and discuss the Dao? That depends on whether or not you have the qualifications!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden wave of power from the tower. Then, a huge handprint appeared out of nowhere and pressed towards the ship!
