During this period of time, Yi Yi had grown tremendously, but so had Hu Po. After all, Yi Yi's strength was directly linked to Hu Po's.
When they were dealing with Yuan Guang, Lu Ye intended to test his combat strength, so Hu Po didn't make a move.
But now, facing this Ninth Order Ghost Cultivator, Hu Po brazenly roared.
A long time ago, Lu Ye discovered that Hu Po had some strange abilities. He once asked Yi Yi if Hu Po knew any spells, but Yi Yi said that Hu Po didn't.
As Hu Po's strength increased, his strange ability was gradually revealed. It was indeed not a spell, but a talent that awakened from his bloodline.
Hu Po's roar didn't kill, but it had a great impact on one's mind.
The Ninth Order Ghost Cultivator in front of Lu Ye was caught off guard and his mind buzzed. Although he recovered quickly due to the difference in strength, it also created an excellent opportunity for Lu Ye.
The Mountain Coiling Blade stabbed into the Ghost Cultivator's chest, but unfortunately, it couldn't penetrate his body. The Ghost Cultivator immediately bowed and retreated, avoiding this fatal blow.
Lu Ye didn't show any mercy. He pounced forward and slashed down with his long blade infused with Spirit Energy like a storm.
A series of clanging sounds rang out, and the Ghost Cultivator's face gradually became frightened. The violent force from the Spirit Artifact wasn't something he could contend against.
Moreover, the speed of his opponent's blade was a little too fast.
This short confrontation caused blood to flow from his hand.
Suddenly, murderous intent burst out from both sides. It was the Hao siblings who had been coordinating from the side. The brother and sister had been inseparable since they started cultivating. Their hearts and minds were connected, so their cooperation was naturally flawless.
The Sky Pillar Sect Ghost Cultivator turned pale with fright. He only noticed Lu Ye just now and didn't expect there to be two other people nearby. Moreover, they were from the same sect as him.
As a Ghost Cultivator, he naturally knew the consequences of being ambushed by a Ghost Cultivator. Frightened, Spirit Energy surged from his body and he lowered his body.
Two soft sounds rang out and blood splattered. When the Hao siblings revealed themselves, they each left a deep wound on the Ghost Cultivator's body.
The Ghost Cultivator staggered back. Before he could stabilize himself, a bright blade flashed in front of him. He couldn't block this blade as his arm was already numb.
The Mountain Coiling Blade slashed down and the Ghost Cultivator's head flew high, blood gushing out from his neck.
With the three of them working together, the ghost cultivator was killed in less than ten breaths!
Lu Ye picked up the man's storage pouch and put it away, then rushed towards the source of the light.
Hao Ren and his sister followed closely behind.
"What's going on? Why are there beast roars?" Someone suddenly walked out of the tunnel. He must have heard Hu Po's roar and came out to investigate the situation.
They bumped head-on into Lu Ye's trio.
"You are …" The man was still puzzled when a stream of light shot out from the hands of the Hao siblings. It pierced through the man's body and brought out two streams of hot blood.
Passing by the corpse, Hao Qing picked up his bag of holding and continued walking.
The mine tunnel wasn't dark and was decorated with torches. As the group entered the mine tunnel, all the Sky Bearing Sect cultivators they encountered were killed in an extremely short period of time.
In this lode, there were dozens of cultivators mining ores all year round. Most of them were between the Sixth and Eighth Layers, with the higher the cultivation, the fewer people there were. As for Ninth Order cultivators, they didn't need to mine ores and only needed to guard the lode. Even the Sects in the Inner Circle didn't have many Ninth Order cultivators.
The three Ninth Order cultivators guarding the lode were already dead, so as long as Lu Ye and the others weren't besieged, they wouldn't be in too much danger.
In addition, the three Ninth Order cultivators died so quickly that they didn't even have time to spread the news. As a result, the cultivators still working in the lode didn't know that danger was approaching.
Lu Ye and the Hao siblings had already separated at a fork in the tunnel. This way, they could increase the efficiency of killing enemies.
However, no matter how stealthy they were, they would eventually be exposed. After an incense stick worth of time, a mournful scream came from somewhere in the mine. This aroused the vigilance of the nearby Sky Bearing Sect cultivators. As messages were sent out, the Sky Bearing Sect cultivators soon discovered something shocking.
That was, the brand of many of their fellow cultivators had disappeared.
The disappearance of the brand undoubtedly meant that this person was dead. What made them even more uneasy was that the brand of the three Ninth Order Senior Brothers guarding the lode had also disappeared.
Panic began to spread and all the surviving cultivators began to flee the mine, while at the same time, passing the news back to the station.
At the Sky Bearing Sect station, Guardian Zou Qi and Vice Envoy Yu Hongbao were alarmed. The two hurriedly came out of their cultivation room and when they met, they found that the situation was worse than they had imagined.
Not only were the three Ninth Order cultivators guarding the lode dead, even Yuan Guang had died at some unknown time …
Although the brand that cultivators added to each other's Marks could determine whether they were dead or alive, no one would check it often. They would only notice it when they needed to send a message.
"It must be Silver Light Island's doing!" Yu Hongbao gritted his teeth.
It was no wonder he thought so. So many people had been killed in such a short time, including three Ninth Order cultivators. Who else could it be but Silver Light Island who didn't see eye to eye with them?
However, Yu Hongbao really couldn't understand why the four Ninth Order cultivators, including Yuan Guang, didn't even have time to send a message before they died.
From the looks of it, Silver Light Island must have sent a lot of people this time. Luo Fu and Qi Shi, those two bastards, must also be here.
"Senior Brother, should we support the lode?" Yu Hongbao asked.
"We don't know the situation there for the time being."
How could Zou Qi not want to support them? However, no one knew the situation there. If Silver Light Island mobilized a large number of people, rashly supporting them would only give them an opportunity.
While speaking, Zou Qi looked outside the station. Under the dark curtain of night, there seemed to be endless dangers hidden …
They had done this kind of thing before, and so had Silver Light Island. After so many years of fighting, who didn't know what the other party was thinking?
"Send a message to the disciples at the lode and tell them to quickly escape. The more the better!"
Zou Qi quickly made a decision.
Yu Hongbao knew that this was the only way. Together with Zou Qi, he immediately sent out a message and gathered all the cultivators in the station to wait for dawn.
They could only wait until dawn to know if there was an ambush from Silver Light Island outside.
At the same time, in Silver Light Island's station a few hundred kilometres away, Luo Fu and Qi Shi, who had no idea what was going on, were sitting opposite each other, playing black and white chess.
When Hao Ren and his sister decided to act together with Lu Ye, they sent a message to Luo Fu.
After learning that Lu Ye killed Yuan Guang with a Seventh Order cultivation, Luo Fu was shocked for a long time.
Even if he fought Yuan Guang alone, he wouldn't dare say that he could win, let alone kill him. After all, Yuan Guang was the former Vice Protector of Sky Pillar Sect, so he still had strength.
What he couldn't do, a Seventh Order cultivator actually did it? Even if he borrowed the power of the Spirit Array, this kind of strength was still a little too shocking.
When Hao Ren decided to act together with Lu Ye, Luo Fu actually didn't approve of it. Jumping around in someone else's station was definitely risky, but considering that Hao Ren and his sister were Ghost Cultivators who were good at escaping and hiding, he didn't stop them.
He knew the strength of Hao Ren and his sister. If the two of them worked together, it wouldn't be a problem for them to fight an ordinary Ninth Order cultivator.
He thought that Blue Blood Sect's Lu Yiye would definitely return empty-handed after reaching Sky Pillar Sect's mineral lode and might even be hunted down. He had already sent a message to Hao Ren and asked him to invite Lu Yiye to the station as a guest if there was a chance.
He had heard some very strange rumors from some very secretive channels …
But as Hao Ren passed back one message after another, he fell into a trance …
[What's wrong with this world?] [It feels a little different from the Cultivation World I know.]
"What's the situation?" Qi Shi asked as he placed his chess piece.
"It's a long story …" Luo Fu didn't know how to explain.
If he didn't know Hao Ren's character, he would have suspected that Hao Ren had been captured by Sky Pillar Sect and had given him false information to fool him.
Qi Shi frowned, "Are Hao Ren and the others in danger?"
Luo Fu shook his head and reported the names of three people.
Qi Shi asked, "Three Ninth Order cultivators from Sky Pillar Sect?"
"Yes."
"They are chasing Hao Ren and Lu Yiye?"
"They're dead! Now, Hao Ren and his sister have followed Lu Yiye and killed their way into Sky Pillar Sect's mineral lode. They killed one when they saw one, two when they saw two. Tsk tsk, Hao Ren said that blood is flowing like a river over there. "
"Bullshit!" Qi Shi couldn't help but curse.
"I also think he's bullshit," Luo Fu smiled bitterly, "Then I sent a message to Hao Qing and she said the same thing."
Qi Shi's eyes widened, "They captured Sky Pillar Sect's mineral lode?"
"That seems to be the case."
"Impossible!" Qi Shi said as he hurriedly contacted Hao Qing.
A moment later, he received a reply, which was no different from what Luo Fu said before. He suddenly felt a little dazed, feeling that everything around him was not so real. He hesitated, "Could it be that Hao Ren and his sister were captured?"
Obviously, he had the same thought as Luo Fu.
But soon, he shook his head and said, "If they were really captured, they would most likely commit suicide. They wouldn't betray their sect for glory."
But … four people had captured Sky Pillar Sect's mineral lode. This was too bizarre.
"Sky Pillar Sect must be thinking that we did something." Qi Shi thought of another key point, "Since something happened to Sky Pillar Sect's mineral lode, they will definitely send people to hunt them down."
Luo Fu nodded, "This is an opportunity!"
There was no need for him to say more as Qi Shi had already reacted. He threw down the chess piece in his hand and said, "I'll gather people!"
A moment later, hundreds of cultivators gathered in front of Sky Secret Temple's square. Their cultivations ranged from Sixth Order to Ninth Order. Most of them were Sky Pillar Sect's cultivators, while others were Rogue Cultivators who had attached themselves to Sky Pillar Sect or cultivators from other Sects.
But whether they were Rogue Cultivators or from other Sects, since they had come to Silver Light Island's station, they had to obey orders.
No one knew why the Guardian and Vice Guardian had summoned them here in the middle of the night, but they all had a faint feeling that a storm was coming. They were not afraid, but rather excited. Although this kind of large-scale operation was dangerous, it was also a good time to earn merit points.
The higher one's cultivation was, the greater the need for merit points.
After a short while, Luo Fu threw out a large ship and several hundred people boarded it. Under the joint efforts of the cultivators, the ship rose into the air and quickly drifted in the direction of Sky Pillar Sect's station.
