Chu Qing looked in the direction of Divine Hidden Palace across the valley. Her gaze collided with that of Divine Hidden Palace's guardian, Gu Can Yang, and they could see the coldness in each other's eyes.
Divine Hidden Palace and Wind Flower Courtyard were neighbors, so their enmity was not small. Moreover, they were going to enter the Infinite Mirage Realm this time. No matter what happened before, once they entered, they would definitely fight if the opportunity was right.
Right now, the Infinite Mirage Realm had not opened yet, so no one dared to act rashly. There was no need for unnecessary provocation.
Chu Qing's beautiful eyes swept left and right, trying to see if there were any cultivators worth her attention.
Soon, she saw a burly man sitting cross-legged on the ground. He was dressed in tattered hemp clothes, and his chest was half-exposed. Her beautiful eyes could not help but shrink. If she was not mistaken, this was the itinerant cultivator called Giant Armor.
This person was very famous among the Rogue Cultivators. Even the major sects nearby had heard of him. Whether it was the Shenyin Palace or the Lingyun Palace, they had all tried to rope him in and recruit him.
Under normal circumstances, the major Sects would not recruit a Ninth Order rogue cultivator, but Giant Armor was a figure that the nearby Sects fought over.
It was not only because of his simple nature, but also because he was a Body Cultivator. He was different from everyone's understanding of Body Cultivators.
It was said that Giant Armor had never killed a single person since he started cultivating.
Every cultivator in the Spirit Stream Battlefield had a few lives under their hands, but Giant Armor had never.
One reason why he could survive without killing was that he had a companion who was a Body Cultivator. It was said that the two had been working together since they were Second or Third Order cultivators. The Body Cultivator was the one who killed the enemies.
The second reason was that Giant Armor's defense was extremely strong. Basically, no cultivator in the same realm could break through his defense. Even if their cultivation was one or two Minor Realms higher, it would still be very difficult to injure him.
As one body and one method, they had gone from working together as Third Order and Third Order cultivators all the way to Ninth Order.
The Hidden God Palace and the Over Cloud Palace's attempts to rope Giant Armor in had failed because the spell cultivator who was working with Giant Armor did not agree. He seemed to have always treated Giant Armor as his cash cow and did not allow any other forces to touch him.
Therefore, Chu Qing felt a slight headache when she saw Giant Armor's figure. Fortunately, Giant Armor did not join the Shenyin Palace. It seemed that he was working together with his Dharma cultivator companion. Therefore, as long as they did not provoke him, they should be fine.
In order to verify her conjecture, Chuqing began to search for traces of that Dharma cultivator. That Dharma cultivator was easy to recognize. He had two tufts of mustache and a short stature. He didn't look like a good person.
Then, her gaze swept over Lu Ye, who was standing next to Giant Armor. She turned her gaze back to Lu Ye and channeled her spirit energy into her eyes, focusing her vision to size him up.
After confirming that she wasn't mistaken, Chu Qing's eyes slowly narrowed.
Why was this person here? And looking at his aura … he was actually an Eighth Order?
Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat. A few months ago, this young man was only a Fifth-Order cultivator, yet he had broken through to the Eighth-Order so quickly. Such cultivation speed was simply shocking.
She retracted her gaze and lowered her eyelids. She clenched her fists as killing intent surged around her.
On the opposite side, Lu Ye sensed something and raised his head to look at the Wind Flower Courtyard. Just now, he felt that someone was spying on him, but there were too many people around, so he couldn't be sure.
Hu Po had eaten his fill from the Body Cultivator beside him and jumped back.
The tall Body Cultivator seemed to be a little reluctant and asked in a low, muffled voice, "What's his name?"
"Hu Po."
The Body Cultivator nodded, "Giant Armor."
That should be his name.
At this moment, a large boat-like flying spirit artifact quickly flew over from the distance. Seeing the symbol on the ship, the cultivators of the Wind Flower Courtyard were obviously excited, because it was from Sun Illumination Mountain.
A moment later, the ship from Sun Illumination Mountain landed. Led by a handsome young cultivator, nearly a hundred people gathered with the Wind Flower Courtyard. For a moment, the scene was lively. Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters kept calling each other Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters. It was a happy and harmonious scene. The cultivators of these two families were obviously on good terms.
On the other hand, the people of the Shenyin Palace all had dignified expressions.
Ji Yan, who came to rope in Lu Ye before, stood beside a bronze-skinned man and whispered, "Senior Brother, how much longer will it take for the Cloud Soaring Palace to arrive?"
This bronze-skinned man was the leader of the Shenyin Palace's team this time. He was also the guardian of the Shenyin Palace's encampment, Gu Canyang.
"I'm afraid the Cloud Soaring Palace won't be able to come." Gu Canyang said, "It'll take them at least four to six hours to get here. The Boundless Mirage Realm is about to open."
Ji Yan was worried, "Then what should we do? If we go in, we'll be fighting one against two. Should we retreat? "
Gu Canyang shook his head, "If we give up before the battle, how will our Shenyin Palace be able to hold our heads up in the future? The Boundless Mirage Realm has many environments. As long as it's not one of those places, it won't matter even if we fight one against two. Sometimes, having more people doesn't necessarily mean success. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the fog in the valley suddenly surged violently.
"It's about to open!" someone shouted.
In an instant, the noisy valley became quiet. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the fog in front of them.
Under everyone's gaze, the fog rolled and gathered in different places. Soon, vortexes of various sizes appeared.
In just a moment, the rolling fog suddenly stopped. Only the vortexes were spinning slowly. From the vortexes, an inexplicable aura leaked out.
"Senior Martial Brother," Ji Yan shouted.
Gu Canyang waved his hand, "Enter!"
Since they had decided to enter the Boundless Mirage Realm, they naturally wouldn't back down at this juncture. With that said, he took the lead and jumped into the vortex closest to him. His figure immediately disappeared. With him taking the lead, the cultivators of the Shenyin Palace followed closely behind.
On the opposite side of the valley, the cultivators of the Wind Flower Sect and the Sunlight Mountain who had gathered together also jumped into the same fog vortex under the leadership of their leaders.
At the same time, the rogue cultivators around the valley also formed their own teams and jumped into different vortexes.
The little bearded magic cultivator who had been with Giant Armor had already returned. It looked like he had not managed to rope in anyone. His expression was a little angry, and he was furious at how heartless people were. It was so difficult to find a suitable collaborator now. When he returned and saw that Giant Armor was still eating, he kicked him angrily. "Get up, let's go!"
"Oh."
Giant Armor stuffed the beast meat in his hand into his mouth. His cheeks bulged as he followed the magic cultivator with the mustache into a vortex.
Lu Ye also jumped into the vortex next to him. He originally wanted to observe the environment inside through the vortex, but he couldn't see anything.
After rushing into the fog along the vortex, Lu Ye suddenly felt a force of levitating in the air on his body. Then, he froze in the air.
Noises came from all around. He turned his head and saw that the cultivators who had jumped into the vortex were all frozen in the air.
Looking back, there seemed to be many holes in the gray sky. From those holes, there was still a steady stream of cultivators jumping in.
Lu Ye tried to activate his spiritual power, but he couldn't do it at all.
"Damn it, it's the Immortal Essence City!" someone shouted.
His words seemed to have caused some panic. Soon, a group of people started vomiting.
Lu Ye turned his head and saw a towering city below. The city was majestic and occupied an extremely vast area. However, the city seemed to have experienced a war. There were dilapidated fences and dilapidated walls everywhere. Even the city walls that were hundreds of feet tall had collapsed in sections.
There were also huge claw marks on some of the city walls.
It seemed that a huge creature had used its sharp claws to climb up the city walls. Large patches of black blood stains remained on the city walls. Those blood stains were filled with pitch-black fog, giving people an ominous feeling.
Lu Ye's eyes were slightly lowered, and his expression was grave.
According to the information he had bought from the Heavenly Secret Commerce Alliance, the Infinite Mirage connected many different small spaces. Each small space was the ruins of an ancient power. No one knew what era these powers were from or how they were destroyed.
Some of the Infinite Mirage wasn't dangerous and even had great benefits. After those powers were destroyed, there would always be many treasures left behind. There were also storage bags left behind by the cultivators who had entered this place over the years after they died.
Someone had found an ancient herb garden in the Infinite Mirage. Every herb in that herb garden was priceless.
Someone had obtained a spirit treasure in the Infinite Mirage and his strength had increased greatly.
Someone had obtained the inheritance left behind by a supreme expert in the Infinite Mirage …
Therefore, the Infinite Mirage was extremely attractive to cultivators. Every time the Infinite Mirage appeared, it would definitely attract cultivators from all around to explore.
However, because the ruins were different, the degree of danger was different.
Among all the small spaces connected to the Boundless Mirage, the Immortal Essence City was undoubtedly the most dangerous place. There were some dangers that cultivators at the Spirit Stream Realm could not withstand. Once they encountered them, they would basically die.
Most importantly, there were many spirit bodies in the Immortal Essence City. Those spirit bodies seemed to be the original cultivators of the Immortal Essence City. They had died with the destruction of the Immortal Essence City and then became spirit bodies that were trapped here. Some spirit bodies had no thoughts and no consciousness and only followed their instincts when they were alive. However, some spirit bodies still retained their intelligence when they were alive.
Therefore, in a place like the Immortal Essence City, the dangers were not only the hostile cultivators but also the Immortal Essence City itself.
Lu Ye recalled all the information he had about the Immortal Essence City and looked at the huge palace in the center of the city below. He secretly decided that he absolutely couldn't go to that place.
Because that was the City Lord Mansion of the Immortal Essence City, and the spirit body of the City Lord of the Immortal Essence City was inside!
The cursing in the surroundings became louder. If they knew that the Infinite Mirage was connected to the Immortal Essence City this time, not many cultivators would be willing to come in. Although the treasures were good, they had to be alive to enjoy them.
Although Lu Ye didn't curse, he felt a little regretful in his heart. This was because in the small space connected to the Infinite Mirage, there was a place called the Dafan Hall. There were many precious ancient books inside. Although he didn't know why they couldn't be taken out, cultivators could obtain all kinds of inheritances there, including the inheritances of spirit tattooists.
The Dafan Hall was the place that all cultivators were most willing to go to. As long as they entered, they would definitely obtain benefits without much risk.
