In the Southern Region, Mount Fangcun, on Pengyu Peak, where Yuk Qinglou is located, the three Sun Blaze groups gather together.
The Blood Race's invasion was considered a total failure. Seven Sun Blaze ca, three were killed, and the others suffered significant losses. After the battle, Chen Xuanhai personally ventured outside the domain to check the situation and found no trace of the Blood Race around. Clearly, the unexpected changes in the previous battle caused the Blood Race to feel fearful and uneasy, so after fleeing Mount Fangcun, they have retreated far away.
The Southern Region is now still traversing the stellar space guided by the core's traction. Though still within the Blood Termination Galaxy, barring any unforeseen surprises, there shouldn't be further disturbances ahead.
To prevent any unexpected incidents, the cultivators who ca to support from the Eastern and Western Regions did not rush back but chose to stay in the Southern Region, waiting until it traverses the Blood Termination Galaxy before returning.
Among eight Sun Blaze, Lu Ye, the only Moon Jade, stands out extraordinarily, yet no one underestimates him. This battle, his contributions were the greatest, with the deaths of three Blood Race Sun Blaze directly or indirectly linked to him.
Moreover, without his domain imprisonnt, when the Blood Race sensed the danger, who knows how many would have escaped. It's impossible for their side to pay such a heavy price.
Originally, the Sun Blaze from the Dwarf Race grudgingly accepted another master in Mount Fangcun, but they still felt sowhat uncomfortable, even if Lu Ye was Su Yuqing's Dao companion, even if he was a descendant of the Dao Tree lineage...
However, this battle made them deeply appreciate the convenience of having a domain master.
It can be said that as long as Lu Ye is stationed in the Southern Region for one day, even if stronger enemies invade, they will have no return.
In conversations, the Sun Blaze from the South and West troops spoke kindly to Lu Ye, who responded politely. In terms of age, he is the youngest, in cultivation, the weakest; although by chance he refined Mount Fangcun's core, becoming its nominal master, he knows in his heart that the true masters of Mount Fangcun are forever the Dwarf Race.
In the future, Mount Fangcun will beco a stronghold for the Nine Provinces, so it's natural to seize this opportunity to foster good relationships with the Sun Blaze.
During exchanges, soone asked about the previous Core World event, and Lu Ye, hiding nothing, began to narrate, a group of Sun Blaze listening intently.
Suddenly, the audio talisman vibrated; Lu Ye paused his narration, took it out to check, furrowing his brows, and stood up saying, "Brothers and sisters, I need to leave briefly to handle sothing."
"What is it?" Xia Yingyue casually asked.
Lu Ye explained, "Earlier, my two Blood Servants captured a Blood Race Moon Jade alive. Before coming here, I left a drop of treasure blood with him to refine, thinking we might glean so intelligence on the Blood Termination Galaxy from him just in case. He just ntioned having an important piece of information to pass along, seemingly regarding the Blood Termination Galaxy."
Yuk Qinglou said, "If that's the case, let him co over to speak, junior brother, what do you think?"
"Sounds good!" Lu Ye nodded, imdiately sending a ssage back to Xiang Yin on the audio talisman.
A mont later, Xiang Yin and her sister brought the Blood Race Moon Jade into the hall, under the gaze of a group of Sun Blaze. Xiang Yin and her sister managed well, having previously contributed their efforts, but the Blood Race Moon Jade appeared uneasy and frightened.
The change of allegiance was too swift; in the previous battle, he fought fiercely against the Dwarf Race, and now, as Lu Ye's Blood Servant, he stands on the sa side, sowhat hard to adjust. But due to refining the treasure blood, he had to disclose certain matters.
He also knows how much the Dwarf Race resents the Blood Race, naturally feeling uneasy in his heart.
"What is your na?" Lu Ye asked his newly acquired Blood Servant.
"Returning Venerable Lord's question, I am called Dhing Beifeng." The Blood Servant replied respectfully.
"What do you need to report?"
Dhing Beifeng steadied his mind and began, "Venerable Lord, this battle's loss ans Blood Termination World will not rest easy. The Sun Blaze Saintly Venerable of each party covets Mount Fangcun extrely, and having such an opportunity, they will strive to seize it."
If it were any usual treasure, it might not matter, but having suffered such a defeat, the Blood Race may not have any thoughts. This is Mount Fangcun; the coveting and longing for this supre treasure are ingrained in the Blood Race's very soul, inherited from the Blood Ancestor's greed, so even with significant losses, no Blood Race will abandon.
"How many Sun Blaze does Blood Termination have over there?" Lu Ye asked.
Though previously the Blood Race dispatched seven Sun Blaze, Lu Ye estimated that's not their full force; surely so Sun Blaze are stationed within the domain.
"Nine!" Dhing Beifeng replied.
Wuh Ji snorted coldly, "Seven ca over initially, losing nearly half, now you have only six Sun Blaze left, what can you accomplish?"
The key is, with Lu Ye here, in his position as Mount Fangcun's master and with his powerful saintliness, if warfare breaks out again, the South won't be as passive as it was last ti. If the Blood Race dares invade, it will surely be their demise.
Moreover, the Dwarf Race side boasts eight Sun Blaze, in terms of top combat power, the Dwarf Race does not lose out.
"It's different, previously our race was too complacent. After this defeat, the ho world will surely deploy the ancestral artifact."
"Ancestral artifact?" Lu Ye raised his eyebrows, "What ancestral artifact? And what power does it possess?"
Dhing Beifeng shook his head and said, "Only the Sun Blaze Saintly Venerables can co into contact with the ancestral artifact. I have only heard of it, never seen it with my own eyes, nor do I know its power. However, there has always been a legend in our world, saying that many years ago, several powerful domains joined forces to launch an attack on this world. During that ti, the number of Sun Blaze dispatched by several major domains exceeded twenty. But even so, when the Sun Blaze Saintly Venerables of this world deployed the ancestral artifact, they fled in panic, defeated and retreated."
Lu Ye listened, his brows furrowed tightly. Judging by the na 'ancestral artifact', if he hadn't misunderstood, it should be sothing left by the Blood Ancestor.
It's really hard to say how strong this thing is.
If Dhing Beifeng's legend isn't false, then this ancestral artifact shouldn't be underestimated. After all, several major domains joined forces to attack, and even with more than twenty Sun Blaze, they couldn't succeed. It shows the strength of the ancestral artifact.
"Every domain has its legends. The reason legends are called legends is because they are often exaggerated stories passed down through generations by word of mouth and may not necessarily be true," said Weng Xiong from the Western Region.
All the Sun Blaze nodded, naturally understanding this reason.
"It may not be just a legend..." A venerable voice sounded, and everyone's eyes quickly turned to Yuk Qinglou. The latter spoke, "I have also heard about this!"
Everyone was taken aback.
Yuk Qinglou said leisurely, "Haven't you ever wondered, with the Blood Race having such a notorious reputation and creating enemies all around in this stellar space, isn't there any force that wants to completely eliminate the Blood Race? Unlike the mobility of the Insect Race, the Blood Race lacks such mobility. The foundational domains of the Blood Race are traceable. Just take this Blood Termination World, it is located within the Blood Termination Galaxy. If soone united, couldn't they wipe it out?"
Lu Ye couldn't help but fall into deep thought, actually pondering this issue before.
The Insect Race can't be exterminated, that's inevitable. No one knows how many insect hives are wandering in this entire stellar space, nor how many insects are hiding within each domain waiting to rise and erge. But the Blood Race is different. A little investigation can uncover the locations of their foundational domains. There are many races and domains that bear hatred towards the Blood Race. So why can they continue to exist?
When Lu Ye considered this in the past, he simply thought that unity was difficult, and the expense of a distant expedition was too great, so nobody attempted it.
But now, it seems that's not the case.
"So have tried, and such things seem to have happened more than once, but without exception, all have failed. In these instances, the shadow of the ancestral artifact appears. However, these events occurred so long ago that I've only occasionally heard snippets about them, and am unaware of the specific details."
Lu Ye regretted letting Xia Yingyue kill that Blood Race Sun Blaze. Had he known earlier, he would have extracted so intelligence before killing.
But that Blood Race Sun Blaze's allegiance wasn't complete, so in reality, even if he had tried to extract intelligence, it might not have yielded much. The ancestral artifact is the Blood Race's greatest secret, and he would likely conceal it.
"Actually, there's no need to overly worry about this issue. If those Blood Race Sun Blaze dare to wield the ancestral artifact against us, we can simply strike back. The ancestral artifact might be formidable, but Mount Fangcun is also a supre treasure, neither to be underestimated!" Chen Xuanhai said firmly.
All Sun Blaze nodded in agreent.
"However, there is one thing we need to pay attention to." Zhang Kun turned to Yuk Qinglou, "Senior Brother Yuk, have you carefully calculated the path of Mount Fangcun in our troop? Did it avoid the Blood Termination World?"
Yuk Qinglou said, "When entering the Blood Termination Galaxy, we perford calculations. According to the star map markings, the path of Mount Fangcun should bypass the Blood Termination World at a distance of more than ten days' journey."
Zhang Kun nodded, "Then there's nothing to worry about. We only need to remain stationed within the troop. If any enemies co, we kill them, and once the troop safely traverses the Blood Termination Galaxy, we're settled."
The Blood Race shows interest in Mount Fangcun, but the Dwarf Race has no interest in the Blood Termination World. The Blood Termination Galaxy is rely a segnt of the long journey. Had the existence of Mount Fangcun not been exposed by the Blood Race's curiosity, the previous battle would not have occurred. Mount Fangcun would pass quietly through the Blood Termination Galaxy and then depart silently.
The previous battle greatly weakened the Blood Race; therefore, even if the Blood Race truly possesses the ancestral artifact, the Dwarf Race would be largely unhard if they kept themselves within the domain.
The eting concluded, and everyone dispersed.
Lu Ye and two Sun Blaze of the Eastern Region were arranged to reside at Pengyu Peak, taking ti for healing after the battle.
Days of peace passed.
Until a sudden loud noise echoed throughout the domain, causing the entire world to start shaking.
Lu Ye, who was in the midst of refining his treasure blood, was shocked and imdiately spread out his ntal Consciousness to perceive the surroundings.
In the next instant, waves of powerful auras erged, unmistakably the Sun Blaze of the Dwarf Race, who soared from different positions, like Lu Ye, expanding their ntal Consciousness to investigate.
Lu Ye's face turned grim, singularly able to perceive changes within the domain, unlike the other Sun Blaze. As the Origin Lord, he could distinctly feel so shifts within the ho world.
Originally, Mount Fangcun within the Southern Region was swiftly traversing the stellar space, but now Lu Ye detected that the entire world seed to encounter a strange resistance. Under this resistance, the speed of Mount Fangcun in the Southern Region was rapidly slowing down. It was the abrupt ergence of this resistance that triggered the domain's tremors.
