If the cultivators of the Cloud River Battlefield were to be ranked on a list, Lu Ye would definitely be at the top of the list.
As early as in the Spirit Stream Battlefield, his actions had even attracted the attention of many Spirit Sea Realm cultivators. The huge bounty issued by the major sects of the Myriad Devil Mountain Range made most of the cultivators in Nine Regions have heard of Lu Ye's name.
After Lu Ye, there were Li Baxian and Feng Yue Chan.
Perhaps in the entire cultivation world of the Nine States, their fame was not too outstanding, but in the Cloud River Battlefield, they were still very famous.
After all, which of these Cloud River Realm cultivators had not come from the Spirit Stream Realm? Which one of them had not looked up to these two malignant tumors of the Spirit Stream Battlefield …
Below them were cultivators like Song Zhui, who had a good background, a good cultivation, and a little fame.
Ying Wu Ji could also be considered in this level. Although very few people had seen his true face, many people had heard of his name, especially the cultivators of the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, and especially the ghost cultivators …
Because just two months ago, Ying Wu Ji used his Cloud River Ninth Order cultivation to kill a True Lake Realm cultivator in the War Province's Chaotic Sky Plains!
Killing a True Lake Realm cultivator in the Cloud River Battlefield was a magnificent feat. Although the True Lake Realm cultivator had been injured, when the news spread, it was still shocking.
This was no longer a matter of killing an enemy above one's realm, but killing an enemy above one's realm. Looking at the history of the Nine States, there were countless cultivators who could kill an enemy above their realm, but there were very few who could do so.
The main reason Ying Wu Ji could do this was because he was a ghost cultivator!
Moreover, he was a ghost cultivator from the Sen Luo Temple.
The War Province had ten first-grade sects, one palace, two temples, three sects, and four sects. One of the two temples was the Yuan Hong Temple that Song Zhui came from, and the other was the Sen Luo Temple that Ying Wu Ji came from.
The Sen Luo Temple was a very special sect. Seventy to eighty percent of the cultivators in the sect were ghost cultivators. It was also the most difficult sect to deal with in the Nine States.
For example, the North Profound Sword Sect and the Wild Saber Sect only cultivated in one field generation after generation to reach the peak. These two sects were indeed powerful, but their strength was on the surface.
But Sen Luo Hall was different. No one knew what kind of resources Sen Luo Hall had because the ghost cultivators were all hiding in the dark.
There was a saying in the cultivation world that if a cultivator provoked another first rank sect, they might still have a chance of survival. However, if they were targeted by the Sen Luo Temple, then they would have no chance of survival.
Song Zhui and Ying Wuji were both cultivators from the Military Province and from the Myriad Demons Ridge. They were of similar age and cultivation base. Naturally, Song Zhui and Ying Wuji had contacted each other privately.
He stood up and spoke so vehemently. On the surface, he seemed to be righteous and selfless, but in fact, he was just trying to encourage the cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge. After all, according to the information he received, the defense of Lu Ye's spiritual land was still very strong. Only by reorganizing the forces of the Myriad Devil Ridge would they have a chance to break through the defense of Lu Ye's spiritual land.
When the time came, he would lead the Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators to attack. On the surface, he would attract Lu Ye's attention while Ying Wuji hid in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
After killing Lu Ye, he would split the bounty with Ying Wuji. The entire plan would be done in secret and the chances of success were extremely high.
"I'll do it, don't worry!" Ying Wuji's voice drifted over, "But I want sixty percent!"
Song Zhui indifferently said, "Give me a reason!"
"I'll bear the infamy."
If he really did steal Lu Ye's head under the noses of so many Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators, he would definitely incur their wrath. Moreover, this kind of thing couldn't be concealed at all. When the time came to collect the bounty from the various sects, it would be obvious who killed Lu Ye.
The Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators who had their heads stolen might not dare to offend Ying Wuji, but they could still curse him in private. This was something that was bound to happen.
"You're just a ghost cultivator who hides his head and shows his tail, yet you're still afraid of being cursed?"
"Words are like knives to the heart. If too many people curse me, I'll be very sad. I don't care, I want sixty percent."
"You'll be stuffed to death!" Song Zhui snapped, "As you wish."
Fifty to sixty percent wasn't much of a difference, so Song Zhui didn't bother to dwell on this issue.
"Then hurry up and act, I can't wait any longer!" Ying Wuji urged.
A moment later, the Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators moved quickly and effectively under Song Zhui's command. Hundreds of cultivators moved in groups. The strong Body Cultivators stood at the front, behind them were the murderous Weapon Cultivators, and behind them were the Ghost Cultivators and Dharma Cultivators.
Under Song Zhui's arrangement, the group of cultivators was divided into nine groups, forming an arrow formation, and majestically moving toward the Heavenly Spirit Land.
In the Heavenly Spirit Land, Li Baxian, Feng Yuechan, and Giant Armor stood beside Lu Ye, looking up in the direction of the valley entrance with solemn expressions.
With such a lineup from the Myriad Demons Ridge, their side absolutely couldn't resist. Not to mention that the wolf pack had been driven out, even if the wolf pack stayed behind, it was impossible to defeat the other side.
In the end, they still had to escape back to the Nine Regions!
But what made Li Baxian feel strange was that his Junior Brother didn't seem to have the intention to immediately escape back to the Nine Regions. He still stood there quietly.
He didn't know what Lu Ye's plan was, but he knew that his Junior Brother was no longer the Junior Brother who needed his protection when they first met. After several years of growth, his Junior Brother had become independent.
The Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators pressed toward the Heavenly Spirit Land bit by bit. Song Zhui's shout spread in all directions, "Fellow Daoists, be careful. Don't step into the range of the other party's Heavenly Spirit Land. I'll repeat again, there's a Forbidden Space Formation in the Heavenly Spirit Land! Later, we'll attack together and break the protective formation here. Then, listen to my command. "
Song Zhui's previous efforts were still very effective. Excluding some Ghost Cultivators who were hiding in the dark, the cultivators on the surface were very respectful at this moment. After all, they couldn't take the reward for killing Lu Yiye alone. Naturally, there was no need to take the risk. It was safer to move together with the group.
Of the nine groups of people, Song Zhui personally led one group and flew at the front.
When they were about the right distance, Song Zhui raised his hand and all the cultivators stopped. He raised his hand and shot out a Imperial Equipment. The Imperial Equipment's flowing light seemed to penetrate a layer of invisible boundary. As ripples spread, the concealment formation's effect was broken. The situation in the Heavenly Spirit Land was imprinted in everyone's vision.
A few wooden houses were scattered, and a spirit spring was very conspicuous. In front of one of the wooden houses, four figures stood. Although the figure standing at the back was unusually tall and sturdy, Song Zhui's gaze was immediately attracted to Lu Ye who was standing in front.
He frowned slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face. The situation … was a little different from what he had imagined.
At the same time, the Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators also discovered that the Heavenly Spirit Land in front of them had no protective formation … or rather, the protective formation had not been activated!
The entire Heavenly Spirit Land appeared in their vision without any protection.
Moreover, they didn't see any traces of the rumored hundreds of Demon Wolves.
What did this mean?
Song Zhui's gaze swept across the Heavenly Spirit Land. He didn't see any traces of Demon Wolves, but that didn't mean there weren't any. Since Lu Yiye could arrange a concealment formation to hide the entire Heavenly Spirit Land, hiding a few Demon Wolves naturally wouldn't be a problem.
Song Zhui was sure that if they dared to set foot in the Heavenly Spirit Land, those hidden Demon Wolves would attack from all directions!
He had seen through this little trick at a glance. It was like showing off one's slight skill in front of an expert.
However, although the situation was unexpected, it made it easier for Ying Wuji to act in secret.
Originally, he and Ying Wuji's plan was for him to lead people to break through the protective formation of the Heavenly Spirit Land. Then, Ying Wuji would take the opportunity to sneak in and kill Lu Yiye.
Now that the other party hadn't even activated the protective formation, wouldn't Ying Wuji be able to enter unhindered?
Many thoughts flashed through his mind. Song Zhui's signature warm smile appeared on his face. He looked at Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan behind Lu Ye and slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Li, Fellow Daoist Feng, after so many years, you're still as elegant as ever!"
When Song Zhui was at the Spirit Stream Battlefield, he was ranked third on the Spirit Stream List!
This was the highest ranking a cultivator could achieve during the reign of the Heavenly Spirit Stream List's three malignant tumors.
The first was Feng Yuechan, and the second was Yan Xing. No matter which one it was, none of the cultivators who came later could contend against them.
As experts on the Heavenly Spirit Stream List, Song Zhui, Li Baxian, and Feng Yuechan naturally knew each other.
Li Baxian ignored him. Since they were in different camps, there was no need to be polite. She only whispered to Lu Ye, "Song Zhui from the Deep Rainbow Hall is very strong. At the very least, he's on the same level as Xia Liang. Don't be fooled by his sunny appearance. He's actually very scheming."
Lu Ye nodded slightly. He knew how strong Xia Liang was. For this guy to be on the same level as Xia Liang, he was obviously very strong.
The Deep Rainbow Hall … Lu Ye suddenly remembered. Wasn't that the Rank 1 Heavenly Spirit Stream in the War Province?
As for Li Baxian's evaluation of Song Zhui, it was undoubtedly that this guy was two-faced. However, it didn't matter. Lu Ye didn't need to play any tricks with them. Today's confrontation was an open and aboveboard scheme!
Since Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan ignored him, Song Zhui didn't mind. He looked at Lu Ye and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu from the Jade Blood Sect, I've heard a lot about you. Song Zhui greets you!"
Saying so, he politely bowed to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye casually cupped his hands, "Fellow Daoist Song has come from afar. Why don't you come in for a chat? If word of you standing outside and talking to me were to spread, I'm afraid that cultivators from the Jade Blood Sect would think that we don't know how to treat our guests! "
Song Zhui laughed, "Fellow Daoist Lu must be joking. There's no need to go in for a chat. I've long heard that Fellow Daoist Lu has extremely high attainments in the Dao of Arrays. This Song doesn't want to fall into some kind of Array."
Although he was smiling on the surface, he coldly snorted in his heart. He was even more certain that there was some kind of earth-shattering Array hidden in Lu Ye's Spiritual Land. As soon as they stepped in, it would activate and catch them off guard.
"How could that be?" Lu Ye's expression was as calm as water, "Everyone who comes is a guest. I can't wait to welcome you. Why would I set up some Heavenly Net Earth Fiend Array, Shocking Feather Flying Heaven Array, or Sumeru Formless Sword Array to deal with you!"
Heavenly Net Earth Fiend Array …
Shocking Feather Flying Heaven Array …
Sumeru Formless Sword Array …
What kind of Array were these?
The group of Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators' eyelids twitched. When they looked at the Spiritual Land again, they only felt that it was full of danger and hidden killing intent. (To be continued)
