The Tianji Pillar could only be used by cultivators with their own merit points and those with their permission. Others could not use it.
Therefore, although the Tianji Pillar in the hunting ground was worth a hundred thousand merit points, it was still an abandoned object in the end.
He had not agreed on a rendezvous point with Li Baxian, but Lu Ye had a feeling that they would be waiting for him near the hunting ground. Therefore, after a brief consideration, Lu Ye chose the blue dot of light.
His vision changed and his body became light.
In an instant, he disappeared from the Tianji Hall.
Cloud River Battlefield. Lu Ye appeared in front of the Tianji Pillar in front of the hunting ground and immediately scanned the surroundings.
There was nothing out of the ordinary. Although this place was very lively more than a month ago, it had been so long since the hunting ground closed that there were naturally no longer any cultivators lingering here.
However, when he looked around, he could still vaguely see the various traces of the previous battle. In particular, the place where Lu Ye used the fire phoenix spirit pattern to wreak havoc was filled with scorched earth, showing the brutality of the battle that day.
Lu Ye pressed his hand on the battlefield imprint and sent a message, "Fourth Senior Brother, I'm back!"
Soon, he received Li Baxian's reply. Lu Ye's guess was right. Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan had not gone far. Because they had not agreed on a rendezvous point, the two of them had been training in the nearby area for more than a month, waiting for Lu Ye to return.
After a brief exchange, they agreed to meet at the nearby Tianji Business Alliance. Lu Ye then sent a message to Giant Armor.
He gave a simple reply, "Location!"
On a certain spiritual peak, a tall, statue-like figure sat upright. His body was full of traces of wind and frost and the place he sat was almost covered in fallen leaves.
The tall figure was not breathing and the aura on his body was extremely faint. There was not even much vitality flowing out of him.
Even if someone passed by him, they would probably think that he was a dead person.
After sitting here for nearly two months, the giant armor had entered a state of silence.
Previously, when he received Lu Ye's message telling him to wait at the same place, he had obediently stayed there until now …
He did not even notice the passage of time.
It was only when the battlefield imprint moved that the giant armor slowly opened its eyes and lowered its head to check the information. Leaves fluttered down, and the two birds squatting on top of its head flapped their wings and flew up.
Giant Carapace scratched its head and grabbed a bird's nest from the top of its head. It seemed like it could not bear to destroy the bird's nest. After some thought, it put it back on its head.
Lu Ye asked him to report his current location. Although Giant Armor had some doubts, he still reported his current location.
On the other side, Lu Ye looked at Giant Armor's information and was stunned because the location it reported was exactly the same as the one it gave two months ago.
"You haven't left yet?"
"Roar!"
"Continue waiting for me there."
"Oh."
After ending the communication with Lu Ye, Giant Armor vaguely sensed that something was wrong with its surroundings. It turned its head and saw giant wolves the size of calves, either crouching or standing, staring at it with their beastly eyes.
There were many giant wolves, at least a hundred of them.
If it were any other cultivator who encountered such a thing, they would turn pale with fright. However, Giant Armor was only stunned for a moment because he did not see any malice in the eyes of these giant wolves. Instead, it was more of a human-like surprise and curiosity. These giant wolves did not seem to expect Giant Armor to be alive!
After all, for nearly two months, Giant Armor had not moved at all, and his breathing was not obvious at all. All the giant wolves treated him as a dead object.
After observing for a moment, Giant Armor closed its eyes again and quickly entered that strange state of silence again.
Being surrounded by such a pack of wolves, he did not feel any sense of danger. In his mind, it was fine as long as the other party did not have any malice towards him.
Moreover, even if the wolf pack really wanted to surround and attack him, he was not without the ability to protect himself.
Seeing Giant Armor fall silent again, the slightly chaotic wolf pack also calmed down. Not long after, a huge wolf came in front of Giant Armor and sniffed it carefully, as if it wanted to confirm whether this fellow in front of it was dead or alive …
In the end, it walked away in confusion.
Night fell, and the moon was bright and the stars were few.
Under the cover of the moonlight, a milky-white glow suddenly appeared on Giant Armor's body. That glow seemed to produce a strange resonance with the moonlight in the sky, guiding the moonlight to pour down in torrents.
As far as the eye could see, the moonlight surged endlessly on the huge Spirit Peak. The entire Spirit Peak was bathed in that milky-white glow, making the Spirit Peak appear incomparably sacred.
Lu Ye had long known that Giant Armor could absorb moonlight to cultivate. Hu Po had also cultivated with Giant Armor in the past. According to Yiyi's observations, Hu Po had benefited greatly, but unfortunately, ever since they parted at the Spirit Stream Battlefield, they had not seen each other again.
The reason this wolf pack was attracted here was because of the strange phenomenon that occurred on the Spirit Peak every night. If Hu Po could benefit from cultivating with Giant Armor, the wolf pack could naturally benefit as well.
Five days after Giant Armor settled down here, this wolf pack discovered his existence. The thought process of monstrous beasts was very simple. Regardless of whether Giant Armor was dead or alive, it was still an existence that could greatly benefit them. So even though Giant Armor had woken up earlier, the wolf pack did not show the slightest bit of malice.
In their minds, Giant Armor was equivalent to their tribe's sacred relic. It could rapidly strengthen their tribe, so they had been guarding this place all this time.
As the moonlight poured down in torrents, the giant wolves instinctively raised their heads and breathed in and out.
The moon was high in the sky, and the strange phenomenon on the Spirit Peak became even more obvious.
The wolf pack was not the only one attracted by this strange phenomenon. There were other monstrous beasts as well.
Monstrous beasts had a very strong sense of territory. A sacred relic that could strengthen their tribe had long been seen as their exclusive property by the wolf pack. How could they allow other monstrous beasts to encroach on it?
So almost every night when there was moonlight, the wolf pack would engage in a great battle with the other monstrous beasts that were attracted here. It was precisely these battles that established the wolf pack's position as sole owner of this territory.
Giant Armor was completely unaware of all this.
He always felt that he had only rested for a short while …
In a guest room of the Tianji Business Alliance, Lu Ye was reading and cultivating. There was a knock on the door, and Lu Ye stood up to open it.
Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan, who were wearing the masks of a boy and a girl, arrived together.
Lu Ye stood up to welcome them.
Li Baxian's face was full of shame as he took off his mask. "Little Junior Brother, I've made you suffer at the hunting ground. Your Senior Brother wasn't able to help much. I'm ashamed!"
During this period of time, Li Baxian would feel uneasy whenever he thought of what happened at the hunting ground. Fortunately, Lu Ye had a strong foundation and was blessed by the heavens. In the end, he managed to escape from that hopeless situation.
Lu Ye said, "Senior Brother, you're too serious. When I was being hunted down, I received help from many experts of the Grand Heaven Alliance. If it weren't for Senior Brother's connections, I wouldn't have been able to last until the end."
Li Baxian sighed. "In the end, you still have to be strong yourself."
In the Spirit Stream Battlefield, he and Feng Yuechan had been dominant for many years. However, in the Cloud River Battlefield, their former fame had not brought them convenience, but more danger. This made him sigh with emotion.
How could Lu Ye not feel the same way?
Before the hunting ground, he didn't have too many concerns when walking around the Cloud River Battlefield, but after what happened at the hunting ground, he believed that Myriad Demon Ridge would spare no effort to investigate his whereabouts and find a way to hunt him down.
In the future, his situation in the Cloud River Battlefield would not be as peaceful as before.
Feng Yuechan persuaded from the side, "Strength grows bit by bit, there's no need to rush. Compared to others, our cultivation is already improving very quickly."
"Senior Sister Feng is right."
Lu Ye invited the two of them to take a seat and asked Yiyi to serve them tea. Only then did he take out the Six Paths Spirit Lot and push it to the two of them. "This is Senior Martial Brother and Senior Martial Sister Feng's share.
Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan didn't refuse and each took three spirit sticks.
With these golden spirit sticks, they could break through to the Fifth-Order in a short time. This kind of cultivation speed was not slow, and with their current Fifth-Order cultivation, even if they encountered a Seventh-Order master in the future, they might not be their opponent.
Lu Ye then took out his Spirit Beast Bag and took out the white and fat Grade A Spring Spirit.
"This is a Grade A Spring Spirit?" Everyone present, except for Lu Ye, was seeing this for the first time and couldn't help feeling curious.
Yi Yi came forward and poked it with her hand, only to see the Grade A Spring Spirit curl up.
"It's still alive?" Feng Yuechan was surprised.
"Should we use this Spring Spirit for ourselves or sell it? What does Senior Brother think?" Lu Ye asked.
Li Baxian pondered for a moment before saying, "If we sell it, we definitely won't have to worry about it, but ordinary materials won't have much use for us. If we use spirit sticks to trade, we don't know how much this Grade A Spring Spirit will be worth. Besides, others may not be able to gather enough spirit sticks in a short time. Right now, we're only Fourth-Order cultivators and will be staying in the Cloud River Battlefield for a long time. If we can obtain a Grade A Spirit Land, our cultivation will be more efficient. "
Lu Ye nodded, "I think so too."
Rather than selling this Grade A Spring Spirit in exchange for some spirit sticks, it was indeed better to use it for themselves.
Besides, even if they reached the True Lake Realm in the future and left the Cloud River Battlefield, the Grade A Spirit Land they left behind could be passed down to the disciples of their respective Sects.
On the Cloud River Battlefield, there were many Spirit Lands that had been passed down from generation to generation. They were all exclusive territories of certain Sects.
"But if we really want to use it for ourselves, there are some problems that need to be solved. The biggest problem is the location of the Spirit Land." Li Baxian said slowly.
With a Grade A Spring Spirit, as long as they were in the Cloud River Battlefield, they could choose any place to create a Grade A Spirit Land. But if the location was not chosen well, it would be troublesome in the future.
First of all, they had to ensure that it was sufficiently hidden.
But for Cloud River Realm cultivators who came and went, how could there be a particularly hidden place in the Cloud River Battlefield? Unless it was a forbidden area that cultivators didn't want to set foot in, like the Ten Thousand Poison Forest or the Land of Fire in the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
Even with Lu Ye setting up the array formation, it wasn't too safe. Back then, Lu Ye had left behind an array formation in the Grade-C Spirit Land, but in the end, it was still broken through, and even the spring spirit was taken away.
