The western Fangcun Mountain, which was being guided by the core, needed Lu Ye's help to pass through the insect tunnel. No one else could do this except him.
Lu Ye understood the situation and didn't hesitate. He immediately focused his mind and connected to the western Fangcun Mountain.
A few moments later, the western Mount Innermost slowly slowed down and finally came to a stop. This was undoubtedly the result of Lu Ye severing the connection between the core and the western region, as well as personally leading the western region.
The western Fangcun Mountain didn't stop for long. After a while, it changed direction under Lu Ye's control and flew toward the insect tunnel.
Lu Ye cultivated on his own. Without the core guiding him, he only needed to adjust the direction of the western region and occasionally check it out. He didn't need to spend too much effort.
During his cultivation, Lu Ye kept using the fire gourd to nourish the Talent Tree and accelerate the transformation of the Talent Tree.
However, after a few months, he had almost used up all the fire-type resources he had, but there were still no signs of the Talent Tree transforming.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Lu Ye received the news and arrived outside the Fangcun Mountain. He stood on the mountain and looked into the distance.
A huge insect tunnel stretched across the starry sky. Upon closer inspection, this insect tunnel was obviously unstable. He didn't know how long it had been in place.
The danger emanating from it was almost comparable to the situation of the insect tunnels in the Nine States and Vientiane when Su Yiming first went to the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
If one tried to cross this insect tunnel with their physical body, not even the Rizhao would be safe.
However, it was still passable. Moreover, the western Fangcun Mountain was a part of the supreme treasure. Naturally, there was no need to worry about it being damaged.
With a little guidance, the western Fangcun Mountain accurately rushed into the insect tunnel. Lu Ye remained on the mountain and followed it. This way, he could make timely adjustments if something unexpected happened.
The journey was uneventful. The chaotic void turbulence in the insect tunnel that could severely injure Yue Yao didn't affect him or the western region at all.
After passing through the insect tunnel, they arrived at another galaxy.
Lu Ye held the star map given to him by Zhang Kun. He looked up at the starry sky and determined his position. Soon, he made some adjustments to ensure that the western region was heading straight for the Blood Jade Galaxy. Only then did he return.
Now, all he had to do was wait. In the western region, many of the Rizhao were sharpening their swords. Even the six Rizhao from the eastern and southern regions were ready to teleport over at any time.
After another two months, the western region finally arrived at the Blood Jade Galaxy.
Of course, the Blood Jade Realm was not the only realm in this vast galaxy. There were five or six other realms, and there were many creatures of other races living in them. However, the Blood Kindred's galaxy had one thing in common: other than the Blood Kindred themselves, all the creatures of other races were just blood slaves that they kept in captivity. In order to facilitate their rule, the Blood Kindred did not allow any elites to appear under their rule.
Therefore, in the entire Blood Jade Galaxy, although there were a few realms, the true experts were all from the Blood Race. Even if creatures from other races were allowed to cultivate, they would strictly control their cultivation in order to better serve the Blood Race.
Most of these living beings controlled by the Blood Race lived extremely miserable lives. Moreover, no one knew when they would face a calamity. Perhaps a single celebration of the Blood Race would result in the slaughter of tens of millions of living beings just to obtain enough blood and food.
The western Fangcun Mountain slowly approached the Blood Jade World.
There were indeed many active figures of the Blood Race in this part of the galaxy. There was even one time when a certain Blood Race of the Constellation Realm came to the western Fangcun Mountain to rest.
However, the western Fangcun Mountain looked no different from the most common meteorite in the galaxy. Lu Ye also sealed off the entire western region, so this Blood Race of the Constellation Realm did not notice anything unusual and quickly left after staying for a while.
After a while, the western region finally arrived at the outer space of the Blood Jade World. However, when the western region's people looked over there, they found something very unexpected.
Outside the Blood Jade World, there was a strange object lying across. It was not small, and at first glance, it looked like an oval-shaped beehive. Other than a few entrances and exits, it was basically in a half-closed state.
"An insect nest!" Zhang Kun raised his eyebrows, looking very surprised. He clearly did not expect there to be an insect nest beside the Blood Jade World.
But thinking about it carefully, it did not seem to be surprising. The insect and blood races were notorious in the galaxy, and everyone wanted to beat them up. If these two races were not strong enough, they would have been wiped out by the other races.
Perhaps because they were in the same boat, the two races often interacted with each other and often colluded with each other.
This was the Blood Jade Solar System, and an insect nest drifted here. It was normal for them to rest here.
"We hit the jackpot." Weng Xiong grinned. He was in high spirits. This trip was originally meant to attack the Blood Jade World. Since there was an insectoid nest here, it would not take much effort to deal with it. The Lesser Humans did not have a good impression of the Blood Race, nor did they have a good impression of the insectoids.
"Don't be careless." Ran Dongsheng said in a deep voice, "This insect nest is not small. There must be Rizhao inside, but we don't know how many there are."
If there were not many of them, the Miniman Race could not care, but if there were many, it would be troublesome.
However, an insect nest drifting outside would not have too much Rizhao. After all, Rizhao was not a cabbage anywhere. It was not to the extent that there would be more than ten Rizhao inside. A nest of this size would at most have two or three Rizhao inside, or even just one.
Zhang Kun turned to Lu Ye. "Junior brother, shall we proceed according to the plan?"
Lu Ye nodded. "I'll bring the senior brothers and sisters over first."
There were quite a few Rizhao in the Blood Jade World. The six in the south might not be enough, so they had to bring the Rizhao from the east and west to help.
Moments later, the auras of five more Rizhao could be sensed in the western Fangcun Mountain.
Apart from Wu Qimo, the other five from the east and south had all arrived.
After a simple discussion, Lu Ye left Fangcun Mountain with Ma Shangsi and headed straight for the Blood Jade World.
According to the original plan, there was no need to probe at all. With Lu Ye's current strength and the Miniman Race's foundation, it was enough to take down the Blood Jade World. However, the appearance of the insect nest was a variable, so Lu Ye thought it would be better to scout the Blood Jade World first and see what the situation was over there.
Ma Shangsi played a crucial role at this time. After all, he was born in the Blood Jade World and had been wandering outside for many years. Now that he had returned as a Rizhao, it could be said that he had returned home in glory.
Lu Ye followed closely behind Ma Shangsi, acting as if Ma Shangsi was the master and he was the servant. This caused Ma Shangsi to feel uneasy, and she transmitted her voice, "Milord, I've made you suffer."
Lu Ye said indifferently, "If you want to pretend, then pretend. Don't be so careful. You're a Rizhao now, so show me your power!"
Ma Shangsi immediately straightened his back.
The two figures flew past the insect nest. From afar, they could see insect cultivators guarding the nest. Their auras weren't weak, and they were all at the Yue Yao realm.
Suddenly, another figure flew out from the insect nest and charged toward the Blood Jade World. However, this person wasn't an insect but a vampire.
Ma Shangsi's gaze met the other party's, and the vampire exclaimed in surprise, "Ma Shangsi?"
He obviously recognized Ma Shangsi, and after shouting out those words, he immediately flew over to her.
Ma Shangsi's heart tightened. They were too close to each other, so he couldn't explain anything to Lu Ye through voice transmission. He could only wait.
In the blink of an eye, the vampire arrived in front of Ma Shangsi and sized him up. He was slightly surprised because he sensed that Ma Shangsi was already in the Rizhao realm.
He then looked at Lu Ye behind Ma Shangsi. He didn't pay much attention to him because Lu Ye had already used Thousand Faces to change his appearance. He also used pseudo-prestige spirit runes to disguise himself as a Yue Yao cultivator.
This couldn't be helped. Lu Ye had long been targeted by the vampires. When he was still in the constellation, the vampires had already placed a bounty on him. Naturally, he had to disguise himself this time.
"You've actually become a Rizhao cultivator?" The vampire was shocked as if he had seen something unbelievable. "I didn't know you were so lucky."
He naturally knew Ma Shangsi's background. It wasn't easy for a vampire without a sacred bloodline to become a Rizhao cultivator.
However, he, a Yue Yao, didn't show any respect when facing a Rizhao cultivator like Ma Shangsi. Instead, he even mocked him.
Ma Shangsi didn't seem to notice. He only squeezed out a smile and said, "I was just lucky."
Yue Yao chuckled. Suddenly, his face darkened. "What? Have you forgotten the proper etiquette after becoming a Rizhao cultivator? Have you forgotten what I've taught you before? "
Ma Shangsi's expression changed. He quickly lowered his head and cupped his fists respectfully. "Greetings, Heavenly Mandate Saint!"
Among the Blood Clan, only those who possessed the blood of a saint were called Holy Sages. This was a noble status that had nothing to do with one's cultivation level. The reason this Heavenly Mandate could use Yue Yao's body to reprimand Ma Shangsi's Sunshine was because he was a Holy Sage.
Seeing Ma Shangsi's reaction, the Heavenly Mandate nodded. "Fortunately, you haven't forgotten who you are after so many years." He rubbed his chin and pondered for a while. "Now that you're a Rizhao cultivator, you're qualified to follow me. Follow me from now on. In a few years, when I become a Rizhao cultivator, I might consider turning you into a Blood Servant based on your performance!"
In the past, Ma Shangsi would have been moved to tears by his arrogant tone. After all, becoming a Blood Servant of a Saint was the dream of many vampires. This was also his dream back then. Because he had no hope of obtaining a sacred bloodline, he could only settle for the next best thing.
But now …
Ma Shangsi felt disgusted, but he could only put on a grateful gesture. "Thank you for your kindness, Saint. Ma Shangsi is willing to follow you and serve you with all my heart."
Compared to the Heavenly Mandate's empty promise, Lu Ye's generous gift had already changed him. (End of Chapter)
