Regardless of whether it was Lu Ye or Ying Wu Ji, they both had high attainments in the Dao of Concealment and Array Dao. Although the cultivators from the Hidden Realm were not bad, they were far inferior to the two of them.
Even after the two of them had snuck into the array and boarded the spirit boat, the other cultivators did not notice them and continued to busy themselves.
Considering that Ying Wu Ji could not sense his presence, Lu Ye could only release a trace of his own aura and let him follow him.
The spirit boat had three levels. The top level was where the two envoys resided. The man and woman from before had walked out from the side room at the top.
The middle and bottom levels were where the cultivators of the Hidden Realm lived.
These three levels were not suitable for long-term concealment.
So after boarding the spirit boat, Lu Ye led Ying Wu Ji straight to the bottom of the boat.
He originally wanted to find a place to hide, but who would have thought that after arriving, he would sense the aura of many living people.
However, these auras were not very strong. They were all at the Spirit Stream Realm, and there were even many mortals.
Lu Ye pondered for a moment and understood what was going on.
The people here should be the people from the various human strongholds in the Hidden Realm!
Yuan Xiang had said that there were people from their stronghold who had been taken away by the Hidden Realm. It seemed that the two of them were not very lucky. If they had not been attacked by the people of the Pure Land and stayed in that stronghold, they might have been able to meet them.
Of course, the time was uncertain. They might have to wait for a long time.
With this in mind, Lu Ye put away the Pan Shan Saber and revealed himself from his concealed state.
Seeing this, Ying Wu Ji also released his concealed state. He and Lu Ye looked at each other and suppressed their auras as much as possible. Then, they openly pushed open the door and entered.
The bottom of the boat was a very large bunk. At this moment, there were many people inside. These people had been selected from various strongholds. Whether they were mortals or cultivators, they were all very excited.
Because in today's world, almost everyone who was still alive had only one goal, and that was to enter the Hidden Realm. Entering the Hidden Realm meant that they would no longer have to worry about anything.
Entering the Hidden Realm meant that they would have endless good food and endless cultivation resources.
Joining the mystic realm meant that they could break away from their previous lives. Yuan Xiang was right. To the current human race, the mystic realm was like a holy land!
When the door was pushed open, the noise inside stopped abruptly, and many pairs of eyes looked over.
Lu Ye and Ying Wu Ji didn't care at all and simply walked straight in. Under everyone's puzzled gazes, they walked to a corner and sat down, appearing somewhat out of place.
But after a while, the noise sounded again. The people here originally thought that the two of them were cultivators from the Secret Realm, so they didn't dare to make a noise. After they reacted, they mistakenly thought that the two of them were also being guided, so they didn't have too many concerns.
"There are quite a few of them." Ying Wuji quietly looked around. "And most of them are teenagers."
Not only that, but there were also many children.
From the looks of it, the selection criteria of the mystic realm was not based on cultivation or talent, but mainly on age. The younger one was, the easier it was to be selected.
The two of them were considered quite old in this place.
But it was understandable. The younger one was, the more malleable they were and the easier it was to teach them. Perhaps it was for this reason that the mystic realm had such a selection criteria.
Lu Ye sat with his eyes closed. He seemed to be resting, but he was actually listening to the various conversations around him and gathering information.
However, the conversations of the teenagers who had gathered from all over the world didn't have much practical content. Most of them were imagining the beautiful life after entering the mystic realm, letting their imaginations run wild, imagining how wonderful life would be in the mystic realm.
There were also some children who were in low spirits because they missed their parents.
However, no matter how young the children were, they didn't cry or make a fuss because of this. Because even they knew that when they left home, no one would pamper and coax them like their parents. From today onwards, they would either achieve meteoric success or fall into the dust.
They could only rely on themselves to grasp the future.
There was a lot of determination on the young faces.
Ying Wuji got up and walked out.
After a while, he returned and mysteriously handed a set of tattered clothes to Lu Ye. "Change."
In the entire cabin, there were two or three hundred people, and only the two of them seemed out of place. It wasn't just because they were older, but also because of their clothes.
The two's clothes weren't bright. After all, one was a weapon cultivator and the other was a ghost cultivator. They were both cultivators who pursued cultivation and didn't pay much attention to their clothes.
But compared to the clothes of the people around, no matter how plain they looked, they still stood out.
Ying Wuji noticed this and went to find someone with a similar build to him and Lu Ye to change into two sets of clothes.
With the lesson learned from the previous stronghold at Drunk Mountain, he didn't dare to take out anything good this time and only used two pieces of jerky.
Lu Ye took the clothes that were washed white and casually changed into them, then waited quietly with Ying Wuji.
After about an hour, the door to the cabin was pushed open again. This time, five thin and small figures walked in. The oldest was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and the youngest was only five or six years old.
It seemed that these were the candidates that the two guides had picked up from the nearby strongholds.
After a while, the spirit ship trembled slightly and the conversation in the cabin came to an abrupt end. Then, there was a burst of cheers as children of all ages rushed to the window.
As the tremors continued, the spirit ship rose into the air and rushed to the next stronghold.
The children who occupied the window looked at the rapidly passing scenery below and the fluttering white clouds in front of the window, each one of them unable to express their excitement.
After the spirit ship left for an incense stick to burn, the door to the cabin was pushed open again and two figures appeared in everyone's field of vision. These two people didn't say a word, only throwing a few things into the room before turning around and leaving.
Lu Ye saw clearly that these were several large pieces of beast meat, and from the colour and the faint smell of blood, these beasts had not been cooked.
The meat had not been cooked, it was all raw meat.
But even so, the moment the two people left, the children in the cabin boiled with excitement.
One figure after another pounced on the large pieces of raw meat. Some of them immediately took a bite, but as soon as they took a bite, someone next to them punched them to the ground and snatched away the food in their hands.
The cabin, already noisy to begin with, became completely chaotic.
The children from various strongholds seemed to have turned into ferocious beasts, all of them emitting a ferocious aura.
Those with cultivation were naturally at an advantage, while those without cultivation were out of luck.
Screams and wails rang out incessantly.
"Ah, this …" Ying Wuji frowned at the sight.
He couldn't imagine that these children would fight over a few large pieces of raw meat that had not been cooked.
Just like that.
There was even a little girl who had fallen to the ground, unable to get up and was trampled on.
Just as he was about to make a move, a figure beside him flashed forward and reached out, pulling the little girl out of the crowd.
The little girl was obviously frightened, her face pale. Even though she had been rescued, she couldn't help but tremble. She turned to look at Lu Ye who had rescued her and forgot to thank him.
The large pieces of raw meat were quickly divided up. In the chaos, many children had bruised noses and swollen faces, and some were covered in blood.
Those who got it were satisfied, while those who didn't were dejected.
This was because they only provided one meal a day. If they didn't get it, it meant that they would have to starve for a day.
"Lu Yiye." Ying Wuji's tone was somewhat grave. "What the hell is this mystic realm?"
Through the ideas that Yuan Xiang had poured in before, he thought that the mystic realm of the Unparalleled Continent was the holy land of the human race.
There was no need to worry about food, clothes, or cultivation resources.
He also thought that the emissary of the mystic realm had chosen these people and brought them over to nurture them and continue the human race's torch.
Yes.
But looking at the big picture, just this alone made him feel that something was not quite right.
The people in the mystic realm didn't seem to take the people in the strongholds seriously at all. Even if they provided food, it was as if they were feeding wild beasts.
With such a way of doing things, it was simply a fool's dream to expect the people in the mystic realm to nurture them.
He asked Lu Ye, but he had a bad feeling in his heart. "Big Brother, thank you."
It was only now that the little girl who had been rescued by Lu Ye came back to her senses and thanked him. It was obvious that even a little girl,
Born poor, had a very good upbringing.
Lu Ye shook his head slowly and took out a piece of jerky and handed it to her. "Eat it."
The little girl's eyes immediately lit up. She raised her head and glanced at Lu Ye. After confirming that it was for her, she grabbed it and lowered her head to gnaw on it.
After a few bites, she stopped eating and stuffed the rest of the jerky into her arms. Obviously, she wanted to keep it for next time, so that she wouldn't go hungry if she couldn't snatch anything later.
Ying Wuji tilted his head, his heart aching. He wanted to let the little girl eat all the jerky, but he didn't say it out loud.
He and Lu Ye could protect this little girl for a while, but they couldn't protect her forever.
"Can I sleep here for a while?" Although the little girl didn't know about worldly affairs, she knew that Lu Ye and Ying Wuji were two thighs.
She knew nothing about cultivation, but Lu Ye and Ying Wuji's age was right there. They were the only people in this cabin.
The two of them looked the oldest, and they were definitely the most powerful.
"Sleep." This time, without waiting for Lu Ye to speak, Ying Wuji agreed.
The little girl smiled sweetly and found a place beside Lu Ye. She lay down, curled up into a ball, and slept quietly.
Soon, her breathing evened out.
The spirit ship would stop and set sail from time to time, and humans from the stronghold would constantly be brought over.
After a few days, there were no more newcomers.
Lu Ye and Ying Wuji were looking forward to it. Both of them sensed that this trip was probably coming to an end.
This meant that these cultivators from the mystic realm were about to return to the mystic realm.
"Brother Shen!"
"Mm!"
Shen Zhangqing walked on the road. When he met people he knew, he would greet them or nod to them.
But no matter who it was.
No one had any extra expression on their faces, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Zhangqing was already used to it.
Because this was the Demon Suppression Department, an organization that maintained the stability of the Great Qin. Their main duty was to kill demons and monsters. Of course, they also had some other side jobs.
It could be said that.
In the Demon Suppression Department, everyone's hands were stained with a lot of blood.
When a person was used to life and death, they would become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Zhangqing was a little uncomfortable, but as time passed, he got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Department was very big.
Those who could stay in the Demon Suppression Department were all powerful experts, or people who had the potential to become experts.
Shen Zhangqing belonged to the latter.
The Demon Suppression Department was divided into two occupations. One was the Guardian, the other was the Demon Exorcist.
Anyone who entered the Demon Suppression Department would start from the lowest level, the Demon Exorcist.
Then, they would advance step by step, and finally have the chance to become a Guardian.
Shen Zhangqing's previous life was a trainee Demon Exorcist in the Demon Suppression Department. He was also the lowest level Demon Exorcist.
He had the memories of his previous life.
He was also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Department.
It didn't take long for Shen Zhangqing to stop in front of a pavilion.
Different from the other places in the Demon Suppression Department that were filled with killing intent, this pavilion was like a crane in a flock of chickens. In the bloody Demon Suppression Department, it presented a different kind of tranquility.
At this time, the pavilion's door was open, and people occasionally entered and exited.
Shen Zhangqing only hesitated for a moment, then stepped in.
Entering the pavilion.
The environment suddenly changed.
A wave of ink mixed with a faint smell of blood hit his face, causing his brows to instinctively furrow, but quickly relax.
The smell of blood on everyone in the Demon Suppression Department was almost impossible to wash clean.
