He then exchanged names with the body cultivator who was being treated. He was the Guardian of an eighth-rank sect in Dingzhou. His name was Gao Tai.
After learning Lu Ye's identity, Gao Tai was surprised. "So you're Lu Yiye from the Jade Blood Sect. Two months ago, the battle at Golden Light Peak caused quite a commotion."
Lu Ye was too lazy to correct the way others addressed him. Some things had already been spread, so he couldn't deny it.
Lan Yudie was the Vice Guardian while Gao Tai was the Guardian. Originally, there were two other people with them. However, in the battle with the Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators, those two had died in battle. Their belongings were still in Lu Ye's hands. Lu Ye immediately asked them to identify their belongings and return their storage pouches.
Although they had narrowly escaped death, the deaths of their companions made Lan Yudie and Gao Tai somewhat depressed.
After talking with them for a while, Lu Ye learned that their luck was pretty good. They had met up at the beginning, and then the four of them joined forces and killed a few Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators. That was until they met those people from before.
There were four of them, while the other side had six. In a situation where their cultivations were about the same, the other side clearly had the upper hand. If Lu Ye hadn't suddenly appeared, the two of them would have died.
"Do you two recognize this?" Lu Ye asked as he tossed a bone fragment to each of them.
Lan Yudie and Gao Tai caught it and inspected it. They shook their heads. Lan Yudie asked, "What is this?"
"I don't know." Lu Ye played with the other two bone fragments in his hand. "I found it over there."
He had collected two bone fragments before, and when he went to clean up the battlefield, he actually found two more. One was from the body of the spell cultivator he killed in a sneak attack, and the other was from the corpse of another Myriad Devil Ridge cultivator. This person had been killed before Lu Ye came, and it was one of the three corpses lying on the ground.
When he told them about his discovery, Lan Yudie and Gao Tai both revealed surprised expressions. "You're saying that you found these bone fragments from four different sects?"
"If those two people weren't from the same sect, then they were from four different sects!"
"What exactly is this?" Lan Yudie poured her spiritual power into it, but there was no reaction. She pinched it with all her might, but there was still no reaction. She even used her short knife to cut it a few times, but it didn't break.
"I've never seen it before. Perhaps it's a spirit material that we don't recognize." Gao Tai guessed.
"But why would it appear in the bodies of people from the four different sects?" Lan Yudie saw the problem.
Lu Ye also wanted to know the reason, but she couldn't find an answer. Previously, Hua Ci had guessed that the two Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators were related by blood. But now, it seemed that this guess wasn't reliable. It didn't make sense that all four of them were related by blood. Moreover, they had joined four different sects.
In the end, he could only put it aside for now. He planned to ask Fourth Senior Brother. Fourth Senior Brother was experienced and knowledgeable, so he should have some clues.
After letting Lan Yudie and Gao Tai recover from their injuries, Lu Ye remained vigilant while sending a message to her Fourth Senior Brother. As for Hua Ci, she ran out to plant more mushrooms. The island wasn't too big, so she could still control it. However, if the island was too big, she wouldn't be able to plant mushrooms everywhere. She could only concentrate them in a certain area.
Fourth Senior Brother didn't reply for the time being. Lu Ye guessed that he might be fighting with someone. Lu Ye wasn't worried about that. Over the past few days, he had gained a better understanding of the cultivation world. He knew about the Spirit Stream List and that Fourth Senior Brother was an expert ranked tenth on the list.
It was said that the guardian of the Pill Heart Sect was a monster ranked first on the list. With the two of them together, there were very few people in the Chess Sea who could pose a threat to them.
After waiting for a while, the imprint replied.
"I was fighting with someone just now. Little Junior Brother, what's the matter?" Fourth Senior Brother's tone was relaxed. The person who fought with him obviously didn't have a good ending.
Lu Ye described his discovery in detail and asked Fourth Senior Brother about the bone fragment. Unexpectedly, before he could describe it in detail, Fourth Senior Brother had already told him about the characteristics of the bone fragment.
"Senior Brother, you have one too?" Lu Ye was surprised.
"I just found one."
Lu Ye suddenly had a bad feeling. He was at the periphery of the Chess Sea, while Fourth Senior Brother was at the center of the Chess Sea. The fact that the same bone fragment had appeared on the bodies of different Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators and in different locations in the Chess Sea clearly indicated something.
"What exactly is this thing? I've never seen it before. I'll go ask someone and let me know if I have any results."
"Okay!"
After ending the communication with Fourth Senior Brother, Lu Ye rubbed the bone fragment in his hand. After thinking for a while, he put it in his storage bag.
Four hours later, another small island floated over. It wasn't as big as Lu Ye's island and seemed to have only merged a few times.
However, after attaching themselves to each other, Lu Ye found that they were cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance. There were only two of them, and both of them were injured. It seemed that they had been through a fierce battle.
When they met up with each other, they were overjoyed to find out that there was a medical cultivator on Lu Ye's side.
They had originally planned to fight to the death. After all, in their current state, they definitely wouldn't have a good ending if they encountered cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge. They didn't expect that they would be so lucky. Not only did they encounter cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance, but they also encountered a medical cultivator who could save lives and heal the injured.
Hua Ci treated their injuries, and the two of them were naturally grateful.
As a result, there were now six cultivators gathered on the small island. Everyone felt much safer now. Even if they were to encounter a group of Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators, they would still be able to put up a fight. Moreover, if they were to encounter a group of Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators, who knew which side would have more people.
At the same time, fierce battles broke out on the small islands of different sizes in the entire Chess Sea. Every battle ended with the complete annihilation of one side.
Looking at the situation in the entire Chess Sea, there was no doubt that the Myriad Devil Ridge had the absolute advantage because many cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge had gathered together. On the other hand, there were not many cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance who could meet up with their own camp. Most of them encountered cultivators who were hostile to them. Even if they won this battle, there would be another battle waiting for them.
As the cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge continued to gather, they could often form a situation where they outnumbered the enemy. In this way, the Grand Heaven Alliance suffered even more casualties. Once they encountered the enemy, they basically didn't have much power to resist.
Half a day later, a great battle broke out. There were six people on the Grand Heaven Alliance's side and six people on the other side. Their numbers were equal, but on the surface, the Grand Heaven Alliance's side was obviously at a disadvantage.
Lu Ye and Hua Ci were two Sixth Order cultivators, and the remaining four were all injured. Even with Hua Ci's treatment, it would still take them a few days to recover.
After a short probing confrontation, Lu Ye and the others were defeated and retreated to the back of the island. Seeing this, the six cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge chased after them with great momentum.
In the end … the ground was littered with chicken feathers!
When these six people stepped into the mushroom area planted by Hua Ci, they were doomed to die.
Even though they had seen such a scene before, Lan Yu Die and Gao Tai were still a little uncomfortable. The two cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance who saw such a scene for the first time were even more horrified.
Fortunately, although they were horrified, they didn't show any mercy.
In this great battle, it could be said that everyone had gained something, and they were all smiling. They were already grateful to Hua Ci, so their expressions became even more amiable.
In such a place, it was really reassuring to have a medical cultivator at the back, not to mention that this medical cultivator had a strange method to weaken the enemy. It could be said that Hua Ci had contributed greatly to this battle being won so easily.
After the battle, no one took the spoils, and they all handed it over to Hua Ci. For them, being able to kill the enemy and obtain merit points and the support of the Heaven's Fate Pillar was already a great profit. Who would have the nerve to share the spoils?
Hua Ci naturally refused, but the others refused so fiercely that she could only accept it with a smile.
After this great battle, they also realized Hua Ci's importance. After discussing with Lu Ye, they finally decided that in the future, one person would be assigned to protect Hua Ci in every battle. This really made Lu Ye feel what it meant to be treated differently.
However, he was also happy to see this. After all, Hua Ci's strength was a little weak, so she would be safer if someone was assigned to protect her.
After the great battle, they naturally recovered.
At this moment, a message came. Lu Ye checked it and found that it was from Fourth Senior Brother.
"Hurry up and throw away those bone pieces. Those things can affect the Chess Islands in the Chess Sea. The Chess Islands of the people with the bone pieces will be attracted to each other. The people of the Myriad Demons Ridge are constantly gathering with the help of these bone pieces. Haotian Alliance is going to suffer in this Battle of Spirit Creek!"
Seeing this message, Lu Ye could not help but be stunned. He had felt that those bone pieces were a little strange, but he did not expect them to have such a wonderful effect.
According to Fourth Senior Brother's message, these bone pieces could actually affect the Chess Islands in the Chess Sea. The Chess Islands of the people with the bone pieces would be attracted to each other and eventually gather together. This way, the people of the Myriad Demons Ridge would grow stronger like a rolling snowball.
Combining all the things that he had encountered before, Lu Ye immediately judged that Fourth Senior Brother should be right. The four bone pieces that he had obtained belonged to different forces of the Myriad Demons Ridge, but they could gather together in the Chess Sea. There might be an element of luck involved, but it was very likely that the bone pieces had an effect on the Chess Islands.
If that was the case … then Haotian Alliance was really going to suffer in this Battle of Spirit Creek.
"Where did this bone piece come from? Has it never appeared before? "Lu Ye sent a message to ask.
"It seems to have been accidentally discovered by a sect of the Myriad Demons Ridge in the Chess Sea a few decades ago. It was the remains of a powerful sea demon beast. After they brought it back, the people of the Myriad Demons Ridge somehow found a way to use the remains and polished it into bone pieces. They took advantage of this Battle of Spirit Creek to distribute it to various sects, big and small." Fourth Senior Brother hurriedly replied, "Little Junior Brother, you must be careful. Try to team up with other people of the Haotian Alliance as much as possible. Hold on until all the Chess Islands merge. I'll look for you then!"
"I'm not in much danger here. Be careful, Senior Brother," Lu Ye replied.
After ending the message with Li Baxian, Lu Ye frowned.
The Myriad Demons Ridge had definitely come prepared this time. Before this, the news of these bone pieces had not been spread. It was only when the Battle of Spirit Creek began that the Myriad Demons Ridge suddenly launched an attack. Obviously, they had been planning this for a long time.
