The world spun around, and when Lu Ye ca back to his senses, everything around him had changed.
At this mont, he was in mid-air, surrounded by the familiar aura of his domain. Lu Ye let out a breath and felt a chill as the cold wind blew, realizing he had broken into a sweat during that instant.
Clearly, the overall situation was settled, the Celestial God followers had been completely exterminated, and the Blood-Colored Furnace Cauldron hidden within that brown planet was likely destroyed. Who would have thought that a blood flower would bloom so brightly above Tian Hong, the one who had always supported him?
That undoubtedly signified that Tian Hong had turned into a Celestial God follower.
Lu Ye didn't know what Tian Hong encountered inside that brown planet, nor was he aware of what happened to the other Sun Blaze, but sothing was definitely wrong with Tian Hong.
If the trial hadn't ended precisely at that mont, Lu Ye would have had to use up a red talisman just to have a chance to escape.
After identifying the direction a little, he flew towards his cave residence. He soon returned to his cave residence, needing to calm his mind from the terrifying fright earlier.
The Asura Authority Token suddenly stirred, and upon checking, Lu Ye discovered Arbuluo had sent a ssage: "Damn it, I'm still on the way, how did it suddenly end? What happened on your side?"
Only then did Lu Ye rember that Tian Hong had ordered Arbuluo to lead the cultivators from Zhongyou World to the battlefield. But the marching speed of the cultivator army couldn't match Tian Hong's. Calculating the ti, Arbuluo indeed had not yet arrived at the battlefield.
His eyes flickered, and Lu Ye replied: "What do you an, Fellow Daoist?"
It was not Lu Ye himself who had exchanged Asura Authority Token imprints with Arbuluo, but the physique cultivator in the Reward Hall who helped detoxify people!
Arbuluo's second ssage quickly ca: "Don't pretend, we all know each other!"
Lu Ye sniffed, thinking there are still so matters to consult with this guy, then replied: "The battle is over, our ho galaxy won a great victory!"
"I knew it was you, that kid Gu Sheng guessed right."
It seed that before sending the ssage, Arbuluo wasn't sure if the physique cultivator he encountered at the Reward Hall was Lu Ye, and his first ssage was just probing. Now, he finally confird it.
Lu Ye didn't mind. Arbuluo would find out sooner or later anyway, so being found out now was no big deal.
"Quick, check your Asura Seal!" Arbuluo suddenly sent another ssage, as if discovering sothing astonishing.
Lu Ye imdiately checked. Although this trial was very strange, and there weren't many real opportunities to take action, Lu Ye played a significant role in this trial scenario—not counting the healing and detoxifying help at Yunluo Sacred Land, finding a way to kill the Celestial God followers with one blow was undoubtedly a major contribution. Afterward, he continued to eliminate several Sun Blaze Celestial God followers. It could be said that no one's contribution could surpass his.
Therefore, the Asura Seal obtained shouldn't be few.
So Lu Ye thought, but upon focusing, he frowned imdiately.
Sothing was not right; the Asura Seal he previously acquired in the Reward Hall was untouched, and he rembered the numbers clearly. But now the increase in the Asura Seal was minimal. Calculating slightly, it was evident that this ti he only received a re fifty thousand plus Asura Seals.
What's going on? Lu Ye looked perplexed.
He sent a ssage over: "How many Asura Seals did you get?"
Arbuluo quickly replied: "Fifty-four thousand, and you?"
"The sa."
Everyone received exactly the sa reward, with no difference at all.
Things seed quite off. In the previous trial, he obtained over a hundred thousand Asura Seals, and this ti, he spent more ti and played a crucial role. Lu Ye originally estimated that he would receive at least two to three hundred thousand Asura Seals, if not more. But what's with this fifty-four thousand?
Arbuluo obviously noticed this problem too, which is why he sought Lu Ye out to confirm.
"Co to the treasure vault, let's discuss in person." Arbuluo sent another ssage, as communicating this way was quite inconvenient.
Lu Ye didn't refuse and imdiately set off for the Asura Treasure Vault.
Upon his arrival, he saw a towering figure appear beside him, precisely Arbuluo.
As their eyes t, Arbuluo said, "Hold on, there's one more person."
Lu Ye had a hunch about who it was.
Sure enough, monts later, Gu Sheng's figure appeared from the side. Turning his head, he saw Arbuluo and said impatiently, "What's going on?"
He was still recovering from his injuries and didn't want to bother, but he knew that if he didn't show up, Arbuluo would certainly co straight to his cave residence, so he had no choice but to co.
"Look who it is!" Arbuluo pointed with a grin.
Only then did Gu Sheng notice Lu Ye standing to the side, his eye slightly twitching, evidently recalling so unpleasant mories. However, being from Yellow Dragon World, Gu Sheng was undoubtedly well-mannered; he imdiately cupped his hands in salute: "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Lu Ye returned the salute.
The top three on the Moon Jade Ranking had gathered. Lu Ye was as usual; though now ranked first, not many had actually seen him. But Arbuluo and Gu Sheng were different, their presence imdiately attracted considerable attention.
"Let's find a place to talk." Arbuluo took a step towards the side.
Lu Ye and Gu Sheng followed.
Shortly, at a desolate spot, Gu Sheng activated a magic treasure and set up an isolating Formation, the three sat cross-legged, forming a triangular posture.
Gu Sheng was the first to speak and looked at Lu Ye, "I have yet to ask for Fellow Daoist's full na?"
Lu Ye and Arbuluo were already familiar with each other through previous experiences, given the ti they spent together, but Gu Sheng truly didn't know Lu Ye's na.
Lu Ye introduced himself without hesitation.
Gu Sheng nodded slightly, "Fellow Daoist Lu, previously I was taught a lesson."
Lu Ye said, "Previously, Fellow Daoist was injured, it doesn't count. Once your injuries have healed, let's have another go."
He had beaten Arbuluo, but it didn't count with Gu Sheng. He had cut Gu Sheng out of the combat field with a few strikes. Gu Sheng was clearly a magic cultivator, and Lu Ye was eager to know the depth of this top magic cultivator from Yellow Dragon World. One can't find such a good opponent outside, and if he could spar with Gu Sheng, it would provide him more experience in dealing with magic cultivators.
Gu Sheng's eye twitched again, "Let's talk about it later, I... cough cough cough..."
Like a ghost, who would fight with you? Against other opponents, no matter how strong, he wouldn't back down, at worst losing a match, but the combat field would not cause real death. Yet, Lu Ye wielded a Divine Weapon from the Combat Race, whose strange power was hard to dispel. If slashed, he had to use an Asura Seal to issue a bounty, and his Asura Seals didn't co from nowhere.
Arbuluo chuckled on the side, "Even you can back down? I thought you feared neither heaven nor earth!"
Gu Sheng pretended not to hear, asking, "What do you want from ?"
Arbuluo's expression turned serious, "There's sothing odd, I wanted to ask you about it."
"What is it?"
Arbuluo briefly recounted the previous experience, initially, Gu Sheng wasn't too concerned, but the more he listened, the more surprised he beca.
After Arbuluo finished speaking, Gu Sheng looked incredulous, "You two entered the sa training scenario? And didn't get any clues or information about the scenario?"
"Very strange, right?" Arbuluo looked puzzled, "For all these years, I've entered and exited training scenarios at least a few hundred tis, but nothing like this ever happened."
Gu Sheng said, "I've never experienced it either."
"That would be enough, but the key is, despite our hard effort, you guess how many Asura Seals we finally got?"
Gu Sheng looked at him discontentedly, "Do you want to guess?"
"Fifty-four thousand!" Arbuluo slapped his thigh angrily, "Only fifty-four thousand, is it a beggar's payout? Besides, I calculated, this fifty-four thousand is just the base reward. Brother Lu and I stayed in that training scenario for almost twenty-seven days!"
In the Moon Jade Realm, for every day spent in a training scenario, there's a base reward of two thousand Asura Seals, fifty-four thousand matches exactly with twenty-seven days.
Gu Sheng's eyes widened, "So, you got no extra rewards at all?"
"None at all!" Arbuluo shook his head.
"That's impossible." Gu Sheng was bewildered, "How could such an outrageous thing happen, usually in training, doing sothing minor should not end with just the base reward."
"That's what's strange about it, this ti's training, though we didn't kill many enemies, our contribution was irreplaceable."
Gu Sheng pondered for a long ti before saying, "Then why did you call here?"
Arbuluo replied, "You're well-connected, Gu Sheng, especially in Yellow Dragon World where there are many Sun Blaze seniors. Help us ask around, see if sothing similar has happened before."
The situation was too bizarre, if it was just this once, it wouldn't matter, the fear was it might happen again in the future.
"Seems unlikely." Although Gu Sheng said this, he still took out an Asura Authority Token and sent out one ssage after another.
"Actually... there's sothing even stranger." Lu Ye suddenly said.
Arbuluo and Gu Sheng both gazed at him.
Lu Ye said, "During the previous training, Tian Hong and other Sun Blazes killed all those Celestial God followers, then destroyed their source. But just after Tian Hong returned, I found he had beco a Celestial God follower. I rely glanced at him, and he noticed. Right when he was about to make a move against , the training abruptly ended."
Hearing this, Gu Sheng didn't have a deep realization, but Arbuluo knew Tian Hong's strength. Such a Sun Blaze suddenly turning into a Celestial God follower, about to attack Lu Ye, that kind of horror... just thinking about it sent chills.
"This training began inexplicably and ended just as strangely, I have a feeling it hasn't truly ended."
Arbuluo pondered, "There's no training in the Asura Field that's destined to die. We already eliminated the initial Celestial God followers, so completing the training task and ending there is normal. As for Tian Hong... perhaps that scenario still exists, and other cultivators might enter it in the future. This has happened before, the sa training scenario, but from different eras, with more than one batch of cultivators entering."
From what he said, Lu Ye found it reasonable.
