Vermillion Bird is alive again.
Lu Ye's brow furrowed.
An Li going to the Six Paths of Reincarnation was indeed something Lu Ye hadn't anticipated.
But the current Vermillion Bird is different from others.
Vermillion Bird will not be his teammate; this is something Lu Ye is certain of.
As someone who had betrayed him before, Lu Ye would absolutely not trust her.
However, it's undeniable that Vermillion Bird will become somewhat more normal; at the very least, she already knows that the Parasitic Heavenly Demon is the Myriad Spirits Demon Emperor, and the so-called Myriad Spirits Blood Transformation Heavenly Sutra was a deception orchestrated by the Myriad Spirits Demon Emperor against Vermillion Bird from beginning to end.
So the question is, how will Vermillion Bird face him again?
"Reporting to the Sect Leader, it has been investigated, and the Darkness Origin once stayed in the Aurora Star Region."
Aurora Star Region...
Lu Ye raised an eyebrow.
The Aurora Star Region is located very far to the east, and further east from the Aurora Star Region is the Devil Sky Star Region.
The Devil Sky Star Region is the Demon Clan's base camp.
The Demon Clan of the Fifth Heaven is different from those in other heavens; the Demon Clan of the Fifth Heaven produced a very ambitious Demon Lord named Heartless Demon Lord.
Heartless Demon Lord was born in the Fourth Heaven and has only ascended for five hundred years, yet he has continuously expanded the Demon Clan's power.
Heartless Demon Lord implemented a policy of high birth rates, reduced resources for the strong, increased investment in the new generation, and established a strict hierarchical promotion system within the Demon Clan.
He wanted to ensure that every genius of the Demon Clan would not be overlooked.
He wanted to ensure that every bit of resource of the Demon Clan would not be wasted.
He wanted to ensure that every strong individual of the Demon Clan would pour their heart and soul into the rise of the Demon Clan.
Currently, although the Demon Clan is living in hardship, their overall strength is improving every moment.
Heartless Demon Lord truly squeezed the entire Demon Clan to the extreme, using a method of draining the entire Devil Sky Star Region dry to improve.
When the last drop of resources from the Demon Clan is absorbed, it will be the moment of the surging Demon Tide.
In his previous life, that surging Demon Tide swept across the entire Fifth Heaven.
Countless members of the Human Clan became food for the Demon Clan.
Large areas of star regions fell.
That time, the entire Fifth Heaven was almost completely devoured.
The Human Clan was in grave danger.
Perhaps, without Lu Ye, Heartless Demon Lord would have truly succeeded.
If he had unified the Fifth Heaven, he would have become the most dazzling star of the Demon Clan, forming the most solid barrier for his future rise.
Unfortunately, he died.
He died in Lu Ye's assassination.
At that time, Lu Ye could only assassinate because the Human Clan had not yet united and was quickly eroded and devoured; by the time they wanted to unite, the situation was already lost.
Lu Ye could only go on a solo assassination, almost dying but still not dying.
Well, he didn't die even when completing such a difficult mission alone, but he died life after life on the hands of his eight former wives. One can only say...
The eight Empresses are awesome!
The current Demon Clan should be in its most fervent stage.
"Bring some people, let's head to the Aurora Star Region!"
Lu Ye said.
"How many?"
"Not many, ten Undying Realm experts will suffice!"
"Yes!"
Ten people quickly arrived, including Ning Tianming.
"You're going too?" Lu Ye asked.
"Naturally, how could I stay out of it when the Sect Leader has something to attend to?" Ning Tianming said with a smile.
"Let me introduce them to the Sect Leader, this is Li Qiong Zhi, this is Gongsun Ming Qian, this is..."
Lu Ye met with the others one by one.
"Alright, let's depart. The reason I'm bringing you this time is because the Aurora Star Region is close to the Devil Sky Star Region, and the Demon Clan hasn't been well-behaved recently. I suspect they might unite with the Darkness Origin, so you will protect my safety."
Lu Ye said.
"Understood!"
Lu Ye had never received such treatment before, becoming the leader of a powerful force right after ascending, with ten of the Fifth Heaven's top experts protecting him.
Lu Ye even felt a sense of swagger.
This feeling was quite enjoyable!
Flying through the boundless Void was especially long. Lu Ye's strength wasn't high, so he felt it was better to have Ning Tianming carry him.
Just like that, a full half month passed before they finally reached the Aurora Star Region.
As soon as they arrived in the Aurora Star Region, the Heavenly Gate personnel waiting there led Lu Ye to the place where the anomaly was discovered.
An Li had appeared here before.
Then, the two top forces in the Aurora Star Region started fighting, and a large-scale battle resulted in many, many deaths.
Although the conflict has temporarily stopped, the tension is high, and they could start fighting again at any moment.
"What was the reason?" Ning Tianming asked.
"We don't know the reason, the fighting was inexplicable from the start," the Heavenly Gate personnel stationed there replied.
However, Lu Ye understood in his heart.
It was because of the Endless Secret Treasure.
The Endless Secret Treasure was a contingency left by the Endless Great Emperor when he was reborn in the past.
He reincarnated to cultivate again, intending to impact a higher Heavenly Venerable Realm, but died violently midway.
This Secret Treasure had not yet been opened.
In his previous life, the Demon Clan opened the Endless Secret Treasure, and their strength grew explosively.
This was a very important reason for the formation of the Demon Tide.
In his previous life, he ascended late. By the time he arrived at the Fifth Heaven, the Endless Secret Treasure had already been obtained by the Demon Clan. Now, the Demon Clan has not yet gotten their hands on it.
If nothing goes wrong, An Li should have used the key to the Endless Secret Treasure as a temptation to incite the two sides to war.
When the two empires collapse from fighting, he will let the Demon Clan strike, not only occupying the territory of the Aurora Star Region but also obtaining the Endless Secret Treasure.
To be honest, Lu Ye also needed the Endless Secret Treasure.
Because even in his previous life, after Lu Ye assassinated Heartless Demon Lord, causing the Demon Clan to be leaderless and defeated by the Human Clan allied forces, there were still many treasures from the Endless Secret Treasure among the spoils of war.
One can imagine how many treasures are in the Endless Secret Treasure.
It's no wonder the two huge forces were so worked up. With the temptation of the treasure, plus An Li slightly fanning their pursuit of power, it would be truly strange if they didn't fight until their heads bled.
However, how did he obtain the key to the Endless Secret Treasure?
Lu Ye fell into thought.
It seemed there was no way. These two top forces, one named the Aurora Dynasty and the other named the Extinction Empire.
Just by listening to the names, one knows that the hatred between the two sides has reached a certain point.
The keys are held by the emperors of the two empires, one each, and are definitely protected like imperial seals.
And their forces, at the very least, have no fewer than thirty Undying Realm experts, or even more.
After much thought.
He couldn't possibly send the Heavenly Gate's people to their deaths, even if they were willing, Lu Ye couldn't do that.
There was only one way then.
Stir the waters!
"Spread the news that the Endless Secret Treasure in the Aurora Star Region is about to open, and the keys to open the Secret Treasure are in the hands of ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) the emperors of the Aurora Dynasty and the Extinction Empire.

"Let the entire Fifth Heaven know!"
"Let's stir the waters first!"
