The operation had failed!
Lu Ye was calm and not discouraged at all. This was just an attempt. If it succeeded, everything would be fine. He would be able to obtain the last Pillar of Heaven's Secrets without any effort.
Although he had failed, he did not suffer any losses.
However, he had to leave quickly.
He had already alerted the Golden Corpse King when he barged into the Turbid Sky Mystery Realm. Now that his whereabouts were exposed and he was in enemy territory, it was best to retreat first.
Thus, the moment he left the mystery realm, he had already activated his Spirit Power. The fiery-red Spirit Power behind him flowed and wriggled, turning into a pair of wings. He stepped on the ground and soared into the sky.
He came stealthily, but left like a bolt of lightning.
"Roar!" The Corpse Race roared and chased after him. However, Lu Ye's flying speed was something that even the top Cloud River Tier Nine cultivators of the Nine States could not catch up to. How could these Corpse Race catch up?
The only trouble was that there were Corpse Race constantly rising into the sky to intercept him. There were zombies, as well as rotting corpses hidden in the yellow clouds.
The Pan Mountain Saber had already been unsheathed. Lu Ye sped along. Everywhere he passed, there was a rain of blood. Even the large scale of the Corpse Race could not stop him.
"Clang!" Suddenly, the clear sound of a sword rang out from another direction.
Hearing the sound, Lu Ye immediately turned around and raised his eyebrows.
In that direction, many flying swords revolved around each other, and many sword lights shot into the sky. It was as if a sword dragon was attacking from that direction, rapidly approaching his direction.
Wrapped in the sword dragon, a sword-like figure stood tall.
Mu Qingyun!
Of the nine people from the Nine States, he and Ying Wuji were the first to meet up. They found Lu Qing and Feng Rulie in the Ziwei Dao Palace, and brought Lan Ziyi and Hua Ci out of Mount Meru.
The remaining three were nowhere to be found.
However, Lu Ye was not worried about their safety. No matter who they were, they were all quite powerful and would have no problem protecting themselves. The Ziwei Palace had also begun to investigate their whereabouts. Lu Ye believed that it would not be long before they found some clues.
However, he did not expect to meet Mu Qingyun here.
As the Sword Son of the North Mystery Sword Sect, he had received Mu Suifeng's true teachings. Naturally, his strength was extraordinary.
Among this generation of Cloud River Tier cultivators, if it were not for Lu Ye and Lan Ziyi, he would be the undisputed champion of the Cloud River Contest.
Strictly speaking, Mu Qingyun could represent the standard of the Cloud River Tier in the Nine Prefectures.
Both Lu Ye and Lan Ziyi had exceeded this standard due to their own reasons.
It was obviously not a coincidence that Mu Qingyun would suddenly appear at this time. Lu Ye speculated that he had been hiding nearby for a long time, and the commotion here was noticed by him, so he appeared to meet up with him.
Although the two of them didn't communicate, they tacitly moved closer to each other as they fought.
In a short moment, the two of them had already gathered together.
This time, he was like a tiger that had grown wings. The sword dragon surged, and the saber light was biting cold. The Corpse Race in front of him fell down like rice straws, and broken corpses fell down one after another.
Only after an hour did those Corpse Clan members gradually give up the chase. They really couldn't catch up.
In the direction of the gate of the Muddy Heaven Holy Palace, among the many corpses, the members of the Three Great Corpse Clans with silver, bronze, and iron skin looked up to the sky and mourned, their hearts full of unwillingness.
After flying to a safe distance, Mu Qingyun withdrew her sword light and stepped on her flying sword, walking side by side with Lu Ye.
Lu Ye also retracted her wings and summoned her spirit boat.
Only now did the two of them have the time to greet each other.
"Junior Brother Lu, long time no see!" Mu Qingyun's face was brimming with a smile.
When they gathered in the Nine Prefectures, the two of them didn't have time to chat at all before being sent here. They didn't have any interaction before, but because of Li Baxian's relationship and the fact that they were both from the Grand Heaven Alliance, the two of them were naturally close.
"Senior Brother Mu!" Lu Ye replied, "Why are you here, Senior Brother?"
Mu Qingyun said, "After being sent to this realm, the battlefield mark didn't respond, so I couldn't find you guys anywhere, so I came here. I thought that no matter where you guys are, you'll definitely come here to deal with the Corpse Race in the end, so I waited here. It seems that Junior Brother's thoughts coincide with mine. "
"The Point Guard Is Here."
When he saw Lu Ye running over alone, he thought Lu Ye had the same idea as him.
"I came to scout the situation," Lu Ye explained casually, "but didn't expect to meet you, Senior Brother."
"Did you see the others, Junior Brother?"
"Other than Yang Yuan and Giant Armor, the others have already gathered."
"Oh?" Mu Qingyun raised his eyebrows, "That's really good."
After a pause, he asked again, "Junior Brother, I don't know much about this realm, so I don't know what to do next. Can you teach me?"
Lu Ye thought for a moment and said honestly, "Actually, before coming to this realm, there was someone from the Tianji Business Alliance waiting for us on the spiritual mountain where we gathered. I was the first to arrive, and that person gave me something."
These things were actually not considered secrets, but he was too lazy to say much to Ying Wuji and the others. However, there was no need to hide it from Mu Qingyun, so he naturally told him everything.
Hearing his words, Mu Qingyun was thoughtful, "Although the four sealed Tianji Pillars match the number of Tianji Pillars in the four secret realms, how can Junior Brother be so sure that the Tianji Pillars must be placed in the secret realms? After all, Tianji doesn't have a clear guide. "
"Senior Brother hasn't been to the secret realms, so you naturally don't know. This Wushuang Continent is broken. Although there is heaven and earth spirit energy, it is extremely thin. On the other hand, the spirit energy in the secret realms is rich, and it can be maintained for so many years. There is no doubt that there is a spirit vein in the secret realms, and the scale of the spirit vein is definitely not too small. "
Although the Wushuang Continent was not very good now, it was a broken fragment of a realm after all, so it still had a foundation.
Mu Qingyun nodded slightly.
He was naturally not unfamiliar with the spirit vein. After all, he was a Cloud River Realm cultivator, so it was impossible that he had not even heard of this.
"The transmission of the Tianji Pillars requires spiritual power, but we can't detect it when we are in the Nine Provinces. Therefore, if we want to use the Tianji Pillars, we must place them in places with rich heaven and earth spirit energy. The four secret realms are the best and the only choice. "
Mu Qingyun was thoughtful, "Then what will happen after the Tianji Pillars are placed?"
Lu Ye shook his head, "I'm not sure, but I think the Nine Provinces' Tianji can use these four Tianji Pillars to completely establish a connection with the Wushuang Continent. At that time, not only can our battlefield imprints be restored, but the Nine Provinces can even provide reinforcements through the Tianji Pillars!"
Mu Qingyun's eyes gradually brightened, "So our role is roughly equivalent to an advance party, mainly to establish a connection between the Wushuang Continent and the Nine Provinces!"
"I think so, but whether it is true or not, we will know when the time comes."
"That should be the case! If so, wouldn't the Wushuang Continent become a secret realm of the Nine Provinces in the future? At that time, everyone in the Cloud River Battlefield can come over? “
If that really happened, then the corpse disaster here would not be a problem at all.
How many Cloud River Realm cultivators were in the Nine Provinces? No matter how many corpses there were, they would not be able to withstand their hunting.
Moreover, in order to stimulate the cultivators' enthusiasm, killing corpses was very likely to be rewarded with merits or battle merits.
Unlike Lu Ye and the others, killing here and there, they would not get any benefits at all.
At that time, this place would become a treasure land for the cultivators of the Nine Provinces to train themselves, and they might even need to pay a price to enter.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingyun couldn't help but have a strange thought. Perhaps many of the secret realms in the Nine Provinces came about like this?
He didn't think too much about it. To him, it was meaningless to think about this.
However, he finally understood why Lu Ye would force his way into the secret realm of the Heavenly Palace. However, looking at his appearance just now, it seemed that he did not succeed.
"Junior Brother, how many places have you set up?"
"Only the Heavenly Palace is left. The situation here is a little troublesome."
Mu Qingyun nodded. "There are still many experts in the Corpse Clan. Earlier, I met a guy with bronze-colored skin. He was very strong. I fought with him for a while and didn't dare to delay, so I ran away."
Mu Qingyun was the third in the Cloud River Realm, so there was no need to mention his strength. For him to give such an evaluation, the Corpse Race was definitely not weak.
"That should be the Copper Corpse Commander under the Golden Corpse King."
Mu Qingyun smiled. "It seems that Junior Brother knows much more than me."
At the very least, he didn't know what a Copper Corpse Commander was.
"Senior Brother, I'll tell you slowly."
The two talked as they flew. After more than four hours, they returned to their previous place.
Pang Huanyin stood up to greet him. When she saw Mu Qingyun beside Lu Ye, she was surprised. "Yi Ye, this is …"
"This is Third Junior Brother, Mu Qingyun," Lu Ye introduced casually.
On the way here, Mu Qingyun had learned about their ranking, so he was not surprised. He cupped his fists and bowed. "Greetings, Palace Master Pang!"
Pang Huanyin returned the bow. "Before leaving, I had asked people to keep an eye on the whereabouts of your Senior Brothers. I didn't expect Yi Ye to find one of you first. This is good news."
She turned to look at Lu Ye. "How was your trip?"
Lu Ye shook his head. "The Corpse Race is huge, and there are many powerhouses. It's a little difficult."
In the end, they still had to rely on the power of the Ziwei Daoist Palace. Otherwise, it would be difficult to rely on the people from the Nine States.
"A thousand years have passed. Don't worry." Pang Huanyin comforted him. "Let's go back to the Daoist Palace to rest."
After waiting for another two to four hours, Elder Xiao opened the door, and everyone returned to the Daoist Palace.
Ying Wuji led everyone to the Spirit Mountain where they were arranged to rest. Lu Ye stayed and talked with Pang Huanyin.
The situation was very clear now. If they wanted to solve this matter and achieve the purpose of this trip, they had to kill their way into the Secret Realm of the Celestial Palace.
However, if they did so, it would be accompanied by great risks.
Even if Pang Huanyin was willing to trust Lu Ye and had no doubts about what he said, as the Palace Master, she could not make such a decision easily.
This was also the third condition that Lu Ye was prepared to propose to Pang Huanyin.
Of course, after Lu Ye revealed his identity as a cultivator of the Nine States, there was no need to mention the condition anymore.
When they parted, Pang Huanyin sighed and said, "Give me one night. I'll give you an answer tomorrow."
Lu Ye nodded. "Okay."
