Lu Ye's cultivation had advanced by a level, and with the benefits of the Heaven Fate Baptism, the efficiency of refining array chess had greatly increased. In just two days, Lu Ye had nearly three hundred more array flags.
Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan had also found a few suitable locations to set up a Transmission Array.
With the consumption of a large number of array flags, the array was formed one by one. Soon …
The three hundred array flags were all used up.
On the fourth day after returning from Fox Immortal Valley, Lu Ye was refining more array flags when he suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction outside the Spirit Land.
The next moment, he stood up and rushed straight out of the Spirit Land. The moment his figure rushed out of the protective array, the Concealment and Aura Concealment Spirit Runes were already on his body.
His figure quickly disappeared.
Less than a mile away from the Spirit Land, Yan Gui hid his figure and quietly hid behind a big tree.
After receiving Tu Guanxiong's order, he rushed all the way here. With his Seventh Order Cloud River Realm cultivation, it shouldn't have taken him four days to reach here.
However, this place was deep in the Great Mang Mountains after all. There were many dangers along the way. Fortunately, he was a ghost cultivator and could avoid many unnecessary battles. It was just a delay in time.
He had just arrived at Returning Sky Valley today, but he didn't expect to trigger an alarm array not long after he arrived here.
He immediately distanced himself from the alarm array and hid in the dark to observe silently.
Tu Guanxiong only asked him to investigate the situation in Returning Sky Valley.
He didn't specify what was here, but for Tu Guanxiong and Fire Prairie to pay so much attention, it was obvious that Returning Sky Valley was hiding some secrets.
Since there was an alarm array …
There must be someone who set up the array.
Who was hiding here?
Now that he had triggered the alarm array,
The person who set up the array would definitely come over to investigate. When the time came, he would know.
But what made him feel strange was …
After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of anyone.
Thousands of feet away from him, Lu Ye hid his figure and secretly observed. There were no traces of wild beasts or Monster Beasts around, and there was no abnormality in his field of vision …
Someone had been here!
And judging from the current situation, there was a high probability that it was a ghost cultivator!
He rushed out the moment the array was triggered, but there was still no trace of the other party. The other party was obviously hiding. This ghost cultivator was a cautious person.
Someone invited by Tan Sheng and Xia Liang?
It didn't seem like it. These two knew the situation of the Spirit Land like the back of their hands. Why would they invite a ghost cultivator over?
Was he just passing by?
Maybe it was … Maybe it wasn't …
Lu Ye moved slowly, not revealing his aura at all as he quietly scanned his surroundings. Now that his mental strength had increased significantly, even without the help of the Insight Spirit Inscriptions, he would be able to detect any abnormalities within a radius of three hundred feet.
One cup of tea, one stick of incense …
The game in the dark began quietly.
It wasn't until nearly an hour later that Lu Ye suddenly turned his head and looked behind a large tree. Over there … there was something strange.
With the enhancement of the Insight Spirit Tattoo, his vision changed and colorful lights started to flow. As expected, behind the big tree, the colorful lights shuttled back and forth, outlining the outline of a short figure.
He stealthily crept up.
Yan Gui suddenly had a feeling of uneasiness. Although this feeling was very faint, as a ghost cultivator who often appeared in dangerous places, he had always been a cautious person. If not for this, Tu Guanxiong would not have let him come alone to investigate the situation.
He immediately held his breath and concentrated, silently sensing the surroundings to search for the source of the uneasy feeling.
At this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation of spiritual energy behind him. Without thinking, he hurriedly turned around and blocked the attack with the curved sword in his hand.
Not far behind him, a figure had appeared out of nowhere. When the fiery red sword light slashed down, Yan Gui felt a huge force coming from the front along with the explosion of spiritual energy. He could not help but fly backward as his blood and qi surged in his chest.
With his concealment broken, he was also exposed.
In mid-air, he clearly saw the face of the person who ambushed him. With a glance, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "Lu Yiye!"
So that was it! So that was it!
No wonder Senior Brother Tu and Senior Brother Huo asked him to investigate the situation here. It turned out that this was where Lu Yiye was hiding.
He had seen Lu Ye's image before. The Holy Eaves Spiritual Land was dominated by the Sacred Fire Sect, and the Sacred Fire Sect had a deep grudge with the Jade Blood Sect. Previously, Huo Liaoyuan had found an Image Recording Stone from somewhere and recorded Lu Ye's image.
Huo Liaoyuan's action was undoubtedly to let all the disciples of the Sacred Fire Sect remember Lu Ye's appearance.
Therefore, even if he had never seen Lu Ye before, Yan Gui recognized him at a glance.
His heart was filled with excitement … but what followed was endless shock.
A storm of saber force enveloped him as the saber light carried the aura of death. Yan Gui retreated again and again. In a short time, the web between his thumb and forefinger split open, his arm went numb, and the spiritual energy in his body surged!
[This guy … how is he so strong?]
Although he was a Ghost Cultivator and was not good at fighting head-on, he was still a Seventh-Order cultivator. The spiritual energy fluctuations from Lu Yiye were only at the Fifth-Order, so he could not resist at all. Facing the violent saber force, he could not help but feel like he was being crushed.
[I'll die!] This horrifying thought uncontrollably popped up in his heart. The excitement on Yan Gui's face had long disappeared, leaving only fear and panic.
Lu Ye did not use his full strength when he first slashed out because he was not sure which camp this person was from.
However, when Yan Gui blurted out his name, the other party's position was very clear.
Since he recognized him, he naturally knew his background. If the other party was from Grand Heaven Alliance, he would take the initiative to reveal the light of his Battlefield Mark. If he did not … then he was from Myriad Demon Ridge.
Therefore, from the second slash, Lu Ye did not hold back at all.
A tearing sound rang out, accompanied by Yan Gui's scream. The clothes on his chest were torn, and a bloody wound appeared.
Under the pain, Yan Gui's defense became more and more chaotic. Lu Ye took advantage of the situation and slashed down again. This time, Yan Gui was almost beheaded. Fortunately, he raised his Spirit Artifact at the last moment to block the attack. Even so, his body was sent flying, blood splattering in the air.
Landing in a sorry state, Yan Gui did not escape immediately. Instead, he raised his hand and pressed it on his Battlefield Mark …
He did not know why Lu Yiye was so strong, but he knew that he had been exposed. This time, he was doomed. Since that was the case, he had to send the news back no matter what. He could not die in vain.
He did not even have the slightest intention of begging for mercy, because he knew that begging for mercy would only bring him greater humiliation and torture.
However, in the next moment, his heart violently contracted, and his strength and vitality rapidly dissipated. Looking down, he saw a flaming long saber piercing his chest. The violent Spirit Energy exploded in his body, causing him to vomit blood and stagger.
The light in his eyes quickly dimmed. When Lu Ye pulled out his saber, his body fell forward.
Shaking off the blood on the Mountain Coiling Saber, Lu Ye sheathed it.
A red light flew out from the corpse of the Ghost Cultivator in front of him and landed on the back of Lu Ye's hand like a firefly.
Frowning at the corpse in front of him, Lu Ye suddenly realized that … he seemed to have underestimated his current strength.
Even if the other party was a Ghost Cultivator who was not good at fighting head-on, he was still a Seventh Order Realm cultivator. Facing his current strength, he could not resist at all.
Thinking back to the Seventh Order Weapon Cultivator in the Hunting Ground, he had gone all out against Li Ba Xian and Feng Yue Chan. In the end, if he had not successfully activated his Beast Transformation Secret Technique, it was obvious who would have won.
In just two months, the Seventh Order Weapon Cultivator who could force the three of them to go all out could not even last thirty breaths in front of him. The growth of his strength could be described as earth-shattering.
Of course, in the Hunting Ground, he was only a Third Order Cloud River Realm cultivator. Although it had only been two months, his cultivation had jumped two Minor Realms, reaching the Fifth Order Cloud River Realm.
But it was undeniable that the Heaven's Fate Baptism in the altar of Fox Immortal Valley had strengthened his foundation by a lot.
Especially the increase in the flow of Spirit Energy in his body. The faster the Spirit Energy in a cultivator's body flowed, the stronger the strength he could erupt with.
Li Ba Xian and Feng Yue Chan arrived together. Seeing the corpse in front of them, Li Ba Xian asked, "What happened?"
Lu Ye said, "Someone came to spy on the situation."
Li Ba Xian frowned, "Xia Liang? Tan Sheng? " But then he denied it, "That's not right. They know the situation of the Spirit Land very well. There's no need for them to send someone to spy on it. Are they just passing by?"
"It doesn't seem like it." Lu Ye shook his head. If he was just passing by, there was no reason for him to accurately locate Huitian Valley. Recalling the ghost cultivator's reaction when he saw Lu Ye's appearance, Lu Ye felt that this ghost cultivator was sent here to gather information without knowing anything.
Lu Ye raised his hand and with a surge of Spirit Energy, he grabbed the two Storage Bags on the corpse.
In just a moment, the seal on the Storage Bags was opened. Lu Ye rummaged through them and soon found a jade token that looked like an identity card. On the front, there was a picture of a palace with a big word engraved in the middle of the palace.
Huan!
Looking at the back, it should be the name of the dead Ghost Cultivator, Yan Gui.
Lu Ye threw the jade token to Li Ba Xian. Li Ba Xian looked at it and said thoughtfully, "It might be someone from Huan Yu Sect."
[Huan Yu Sect …]
Lu Ye thought carefully and reluctantly remembered that this should be a fifth-rank sect. When he was in the inner circle of the battlefield, he saw this sect's encampment marked on the map.
"Holy Eaves Spiritual Land!" Li Ba Xian murmured again.
"What?"
Li Ba Xian took out the map and checked it. He frowned and said, "If it's someone from Huan Yu Sect, then he might be from Holy Eaves Spiritual Land! Holy Eaves Spiritual Land is a Spiritual Land shared by Huan Yu Sect and another force from Wanmo Ridge. It's a large Spiritual Land and is marked on the map. It's only two to three thousand miles away from us. "
Two to three thousand miles was undoubtedly a very long distance for Spirit Stream Realm cultivators.
But for Cloud River Realm cultivators, it was nothing. With Lu Ye's current speed, even if he flew at full speed, it would only take about a day.
