Chapter 2137: Chapter 2135: Gathering at Mount Fangcun
Inside Fangcun Mountain, the domain is vast, but from the outside, it appears rather ordinary.
Lu Ye descended upon it, sat cross-legged, and as the master of Fangcun Mountain, activated this supreme treasure. Instantly, a shadowless, shapeless force emanated from it.
It was an incredibly mysterious traction force, and the object being pulled was the Western Fangcun Mountain, still on its way back.
As this traction force emerged, the speed of Western Fangcun Mountain abruptly increased considerably, and as Lu Ye exerted power, it grew even faster.
Calculating the distance, if left unchecked, the Western Fangcun Mountain might take another two or three years to enter the Nine Provinces galaxy.
But with Lu Ye exerting his power here, this time would be greatly shortened, with hopes for Fangcun Mountain to complete its integration within half a year.
Meanwhile, he transmitted audio inside Fangcun Mountain.
After all, such exertion would trigger some changes within Fangcun Mountain, to prevent panic and misunderstanding from the Dwarf Race over there, it’s best to explain first.
A figure, small like a bee, darted out from Fangcun Mountain, rapidly expanded into the size of an average person, it was Su Yuqing.
Seeing Lu Ye, she was overjoyed. Despite having already learned from the Tree Elder that Lu Ye was safe and sound, until she saw him in person, she remained anxious.
Following Su Yuqing, many other small figures appeared, all members of the Dwarf Race.
Lu Ye’s gaze swept across, seeing many familiar faces.
But before he could greet them, two more figures darted out from Fangcun Mountain.
One seemingly delicate figure stood beside Su Yuqing, holding her arm, and gave Lu Ye a slight smile: "Junior Brother Lu, nice to see you again."
This one holding Su Yuqing was none other than the Water Fairy, whom he had parted with not long ago.
Previously, Water Fairy mentioned wanting to come to Fangcun Mountain, but didn’t expect to arrive so swiftly, seemingly thanks to some Insect Path; otherwise, coming from the distant Destroyed Illusion Star Cluster would not be feasible in such a short time.
Not just Water Fairy, Chen Li was also here.
"Senior Sister Water Fairy, Brother Chen!" Lu Ye nodded in greeting.
The group descended on Fangcun Mountain, besides Water Fairy and Chen Li, the rest were the Sun Blaze members of Fangcun Mountain.
Chen Xuanhai said: "Lu Ye, orders from the Tree Elder are for Fangcun Mountain to guard the Tiangang Galaxy, but presently the west has yet to return for integration. I previously communicated with the western side, they might take a few years to arrive here."
Lu Ye replied: "I’m currently pulling the west; we should be able to set off within half a year, won’t miss the battle opportunity."
"That’s good." Chen Xuanhai felt relieved.
"Is Fangcun Mountain the only one at Tiangang?" Lu Ye asked again, if only Fangcun Mountain, even with Water Fairy and Chen Li coordinating, the strength would still be too meager.
"Certainly not." Water Fairy smiled slightly, "Several star systems surrounding my Wu Liang along with Chen Li’s star systems will all converge on Fangcun Mountain, with nearby dozens of star systems providing support, centered on Tiangang Galaxy."
"Tree Elder’s arrangement?" Lu Ye acknowledged.
"Indeed."
"Then there shouldn’t be too much of a problem." Lu Ye nodded and looked at Water Fairy: "When did you two arrive?"
Water Fairy blinked at him: "Not long ago, we were sharing experiences from Star Abyss with Fellow Daoists of Fangcun Mountain."
Just arrived not long ago... Lu Ye understood within.
"Lu Ye, Fellow Daoist Water Fairy mentioned earlier that after the Star Abyss Gate opens, the Star Abyss ambience invades the stellar space, only in such an environment can we cultivate with the Smelting Furnace Method, forging Dao foundation, achieving Dao Realm. But, as far as I know, Ma Bin has already forged a Dao foundation; how did he accomplish this?" Chen Xuanhai questioned. Not only was he curious, but others also wondered about it.
Because if one could emulate Ma Bin, forging a Dao foundation ahead of time, surely would start on a higher footing when the future Star Abyss invades, allowing faster cultivation progress.
Lu Ye shook his head and said: "I don’t know about this; I haven’t asked before. Once matters here conclude, I’ll visit the All Phenomena Ocean, and once I have the answer, I’ll inform everyone."
Before Lu Ye arrived, Water Fairy and Chen Li shared much about Dao Realm and Star Abyss; now with his presence, the group decided to stay and chat; the chaos and brutality of Star Abyss gradually unveiled before them, evoking a sense of concern in their hearts.
Days passed swiftly, gradually, groups of cultivators responded to dispatch orders, flocking from different star systems to converge on Fangcun Mountain, making the interior lively.
The Sun Blaze members of Fangcun Mountain became busy, since Tiangang Galaxy side would revolve around them, they must coordinate various forces’ personnel first.
Su Yuqing, reunited with Lu Ye after years, naturally wished to spend more time with him, even simple companionship and conversation could bring peace.
Unfortunately, the situation was tense; she often had no free time, occasionally squeezing out moments to accompany Lu Ye.
Most of the time, Lu Ye was alone outside Fangcun Mountain.
But he wasn’t idle either; while his true self controlled Fangcun Mountain, he dispatched his Talent Tree Avatar to investigate the Nine Provinces.
It has been more than a decade since his last return, and the Nine Provinces have undergone tremendous changes.
After the Qingli Dao World and Jade Conch World successively merged with it, the entire landscape of the Nine Provinces has changed dramatically. The volume of the domain has more than doubled, and the Spiritual Energy of nature has become exceedingly abundant. Although it has not yet reached the level of a top-tier domain, it is now among the upper-middle tier of large domains.
For a domain that has only been a large domain for not many years, such growth speed is simply terrifying.
This transformation is mainly attributed to Number Nine. With its will, the Nine Provinces could rapidly grow into a large domain.
Additionally, the dependency of the Flower World has also played a significant role in its advancement.
The Flower World is an exceptionally unique domain, always needing to attach to another domain, existing as a subsidiary domain to a main domain. However, with the Flower World, the main and subsidiary domains can complement each other and grow together.
When Lu Ye brought the Flower World back to the Nine Provinces many years ago, the domain, though not entirely desolate, was in poor condition. Being attached to the Nine Provinces, it grew alongside it. Now, the Flower World is filled with the sounds of nature and fragrance of flowers. Under the joint management of the Flower Race and the Wood Spirit and Spore Race, rare herbs can be found everywhere in the Flower World.
To this day, the Flower World has almost become the medicinal garden of the Nine Provinces.
The domain is soaring, and the cultivation environment for cultivators in the Nine Provinces is becoming increasingly favorable. In recent years, talents and prodigies have emerged one after another.
In such a scenario, the Nine Provinces are already equipped with the resources to become a top-tier domain, pending only the accumulation of time and depth.
Of course, this is predicated on the entire stellar space surviving the impending calamity; otherwise, everything will come to naught.
On Mount Fangcun, a group of Blood Race members prostrate themselves before Lu Ye, their expressions pious.
Led by Ma Shangsi, the first Blood Servant, alongside Xuan Yu and Xiang Yin, Dhing Beifeng who was subdued from the Blood Termination World, and Yoo Meng, Shern En, and others who were subdued from the Blood Jade World—six in all.
Under Lu Ye’s command alone, there are ten Blood Servants.
Now, they have all collectively advanced to the Sun Blaze stage!
The Blood Refinement World seems to have some uncommon qualities, especially for the cultivation of the Blood Race. Although its built-up heritage has long been devoured by the Nine Provinces, as the remaining trunk of the Blood Race, it still significantly aids in their cultivation.
Despite having deeply sensed this effect, Lu Ye cannot discern exactly what it is.
After all, he is not of the Blood Race himself.
Over the years, the Blood Servants have all more or less been granted his treasure blood, especially Xuan Yu and Xiang Yin, who received the most. With a large amount of treasure blood refined, their cultivation became easier than before. Combined with the peculiarities of the Blood Refinement World, while Lu Ye was away for these years, they have all advanced to the Sun Blaze stage.
Releasing these ten, then, would be like releasing ten Blood Race Saintly Venerables!
Given that the higher echelons of the Blood Race’s power across the stellar space have been almost entirely wiped out at this stage, they represent the Blood Race’s strongest ranks.
At this very moment, a drop of treasure blood hovers in front of each of the ten Blood Servants.
After having killed that Blood Owl in the Star Abyss, Lu Ye replenished himself greatly. Henceforth, he is not overly concerned with the bestowal of treasure blood. Moreover, with the increase in his power and own saintliness, he can now refine treasure blood much more easily than before. It takes just two to four hours to refine a single drop. Otherwise, given his previous limit of only being able to store nine drops of treasure blood, he could not have spread it evenly amongst the ten Blood Servants.
"Go now," Lu Ye waved his hand.
The ten Blood Servants looked fervently at the treasure blood before them, each collecting it, expressing their thanks in unison, and turning to leave.
Recently, Lu Ye has been giving each of them one drop of treasure blood every few days, hoping they will grow quickly, build their Dao foundations early.
There are Blood Race members in the Star Abyss. Once they grow, they can hunt the Blood Race themselves to enhance their saintliness and bloodline.
Just after the Blood Servants departed, a figure darted out from within Mount Fangcun. Lu Ye turned his head and nodded slightly: "Senior Sister Water Fairy."
Water Fairy, acting somewhat sneakily, glanced around to ensure no one was nearby before swiftly appearing beside Lu Ye.
Lu Ye was a bit curious, not knowing what she was about to do.
Yet he saw Water Fairy wave her hand, casting a layer of restriction that isolated the exterior from within.
"Senior Sister, what are you..." Lu Ye looked at her quizzically.
Water Fairy coughed lightly, appearing somewhat uneasy, slight struggle evident between her brows, but soon, as if having made up her mind, she spoke: "There are too many people coming and going here, it’s inconvenient, so I’ll just say it directly."
"Please go ahead, Senior Sister!"
Water Fairy suddenly blushed: "About what happened in the Spectral Sedan Chair... you haven’t told Yuqing about it, have you?"
"What happened?" Lu Ye froze for a moment. It seemed as if nothing particularly noteworthy occurred in the Spectral Sedan Chair, but soon realized what Water Fairy referred to.
He couldn’t help but chuckle; he hadn’t kept those matters on his mind at all. Whether it was Water Fairy or Su Wan, in a moment of urgency, they only borrowed his body to steady themselves; the posture was inevitably a bit improper. Yet Water Fairy apparently had been dwelling on it.
No wonder, during their first encounter here, Water Fairy looked like she had something to say, but it was obviously too inconvenient with all the people around.
