Deep in the endless void.
In the ancient hall, several figures were gathering together, seemingly presiding over some formation, which was filled with dark grey mist. On top of the formation was a huge seven-coloured gourd, and as these figures activated the formation, wisps of grey mist continued to pour into the huge gourd.
Buzz~
At this moment, the formation suddenly trembled slightly, and the dark grey mist immediately burst out with an incomparably terrifying power. In the face of that terrifying power, even a strong man at the high-level Martial Emperor would not be able to escape death.
The leading figure's face changed, and he shouted, "Hold the formation steady!"
As the figure finished speaking, powerful auras immediately burst out from the cultivator who presided over the formation, and vast energy was continuously injected into the formation. After a while, the movement of the dark grey mist was suppressed.
"Xu Chen!"
After the formation was stabilized, the leading figure fixed his gaze on the cultivator who was in charge of presiding over the formation. It was this person's previous mistake that led to the incident just now.
Being stared at by the leading figure, the cultivator called Xu Chen did not dare to refute and could only speak truthfully, "Sir, the disciple I left behind to guard the station has died."
Um
As soon as these words came out, the face of the leading figure changed slightly, but he recovered in an instant, looked at Xu Chen and said, "Your disciples are dead, and the base is probably also exposed. Fortunately, the source power collected during this period has been sent, so there is not much loss."
"Considering that you are also worried about the base, let's let it go this time. No more mistakes can be made." The figure said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
Xu Chen responded respectfully. He was in charge of the formation and couldn't get away. The one who could kill his disciple Xu Yan must be a cultivator at the Martial Emperor level. Such cultivators usually knew something about the Holy Temple. If Xu Yan died, the station would probably be doomed. Not to mention that he couldn't get away now, even if he left immediately, it would be too late.
"You killed my disciples and destroyed the residence that I worked so hard to build. When I am done with this matter, I will make you pay for Xu Yan's life." A gleam of light flashed in the depths of Xu Chen's eyes. Through the perception of cause and effect, he could vaguely sense the cultivator who killed Xu Yan. Once this matter was settled, he would personally take action to avenge Xu Yan.
…
As Wu Yang narrated, Yang Qi gradually understood. According to the information Wu Yang had, Xu Yan's master would occasionally patrol this space. It was because of this that they knew the identity of that powerful man.
In addition to patrolling this space, the strong man would also take away the source power collected in this space, and this cycle would repeat over and over again. One time, a senior accidentally heard that the collected source power seemed to be sent away every once in a while, and the time when Yang Qi appeared was exactly the time when the strong man sent the source power away.
"Do you know the name of that strong man?" Yang Qi looked at Wu Yang and said.
“I don’t know.”
Wu Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head. The powerful man only appeared occasionally, and they did not always hear any useful information. They had never heard of the name of the powerful man. They only knew that Emperor Xu Yan called that man "Master".
“So, the Martial Emperor of the Source Clan should have been discovered by the master of Emperor Xu Yan, and then dealt with by Emperor Xu Yan.” Yang Qi’s eyes focused, and he analyzed quickly in his mind, “That strong man is the real controller of this space, and Emperor Xu Yan is more like a person in charge under him. After all, the lifespan of the Martial Emperor is too short, and it is not suitable for controlling this space for a long time.”
"Fortunately, that strong man is not here, otherwise I would probably end up like the Martial Emperor of the Yuan Clan." Thinking of this, Yang Qi was filled with fear.
The Martial Emperor of the Yuan Clan should have just met Emperor Xu Yan, and didn't know that there was a strong man behind Emperor Xu Yan. If the other party hadn't left temporarily, he would have been walking into a trap by running over, with only one way to die.
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, "I don't know when that strong man will come back. I must leave as soon as possible."
Emperor Xu Yan is the disciple of that powerful man. The other party's strength is very likely above that of Emperor Xu Yan. He may have already known him through the cause and effect perception. If the other party comes to kill him, he will be in danger.
Worried that the strong man would come back, Yang Qi immediately took Wu Yang and others to the lower world through the teleportation array.
"Is this Xuanyue Continent?"
Looking at the familiar scene before them, dozens of practitioners became extremely excited. These practitioners were from Xuanyue Continent. They thought that going to the upper realm was entering the fairyland, but they didn't expect that the so-called upper realm was just a cover.
Now that they have returned to their homeland alive, they are filled with emotion, as they still have relatives and friends here.
Yang Qi looked at the many practitioners in front of him and said in a deep voice, "The practitioners from Xuanyue Continent stay here first and gather the practitioners in this secret realm. I will take the other practitioners to another secret realm. Once all the practitioners are gathered together, we will transfer them to the new secret realm and then leave here."
"Thank you, senior." Wu Yang and others said with gratitude.
The upper world is a cover, and the lower world is also a cage, but the situation is better than that of the upper world. If they don't leave, they will also die when the master of Emperor Xu Yan comes back. It is definitely a big project to transfer the creatures of dozens of secret realms at the level of the Martial Emperor. In addition, most of the creatures in these secret realms cannot live in the endless universe and can only be transferred through the secret realm.
Wu Yang seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Yang Qi and said, "Senior, there are no Martial Emperor cultivators in this generation of Xuanyue Continent, so it would be better to leave behind a Martial Emperor cultivator."
"Okay!"
Yang Qi was startled, then nodded. He understood Wu Yang's worry, which was nothing more than worrying that the practitioners would not want to leave their homeland. If there was no strong person in charge, something might happen. Therefore, leaving behind a Martial Emperor would help to better gather the practitioners.
After leaving behind the cultivators from Xuan Yue Continent and a Martial Emperor, Yang Qi immediately led the other Martial Emperors to another secret realm. After all, they didn't know when Emperor Xu Yan's master would return, so naturally they had to speed up the transfer of the creatures in the secret realm.
The practitioners who stayed in Xuanyue Continent also knew about this. Those local practitioners immediately rushed back to their respective forces. They were the strongest in their own strength, so it was not difficult for them to migrate to a new place at this time. However, in order to migrate other practitioners, the martial kings of Xuanyue Continent who understood the truth announced to the public that Xuanyue Continent was about to be destroyed, and the messengers from the upper realm led them to migrate. After all, the legends of the upper realm were deeply rooted in Xuanyue Continent, and using the influence of the upper realm could save a lot of time. (To be continued)
