Chapter 359: Chapter 359 Investigate the Alliance
After Ye Liuyun successfully condensed the sword intention seed, he didn’t stay in the Holy Martial Academy. He took the flying boat and headed straight for the Sky Fortune Dynasty.
He had promised the Emperor Sky Fortune that he would use Crystal Core to exchange for divine-level blood essence. Now that he had received news that Emperor Sky Fortune had collected quite a lot of them, he wanted to go over and take them.
After arriving at the Sky Fortune Dynasty, Ye Liuyun directly collected the Crystal Core according to the exchange rate of blood essence of the alliance. He then gave some of the blood essence in his hand to Emperor Sky Fortune.
Emperor Sky Fortune was extremely happy, "This time, our Sky Fortune Dynasty’s strength could be improved again!"
"I noticed that there are quite a few Crystal Core at the Core Condensation Phase. Have the Corpse Demons become active again recently?" Ye Liuyun asked.
At the mention of the Corpse Demons, Emperor Sky Fortune’s expression immediately darkened, "That’s right! They seem to be unlimited. They’ve started to retaliate and seize quite a few territories of the barbarians recently. Luckily several great sects had sent people out to suppress them in time and they didn’t break through the borders this time! Otherwise, there won’t be so many Crystal Core."
"It’s good that they’ve made their move! With them around, the Corpse Demons won’t be as numerous as they were last time," Ye Liuyun felt much more at ease when he heard this. In fact, it was already considered not bad that the northern border was under control like this! The other places were even more serious than this place.
"How have Song Yi and Li Mengxi been recently? What realms have their cultivation reached?" Ye Liuyun asked about the other two sacred disciples with concern.
"Both of them have reached the mid-stage of the Incarnation phase. They have their share of these blood essence, and they will be able to improve a little more," Emperor Sky Fortune was clearly very satisfied with their improvement.
Ye Liuyun left two Holy Weapons and asked Emperor Sky Fortune to hand them over to them before returning to the Northern Region Alliance.
Qiong Qi still needed to go out to find the fire source and he couldn’t stay with him all the time, so he had to go back quickly to investigate the secrets of the alliance with Qiong Qi.
By this time, the Power of Origin of Dragon Emperor had already been unsealed. However, both Ye Liuyun and Lei Ming had just broken through. They were worried that their realms would be unstable if they were to break through continuously, so they temporarily sealed the power again. They wanted to wait for a period of time before making another breakthrough.
Only then Ye Liuyun returned to his own mountain peak to settle down.
When he returned, he didn’t see Lin Feier. He only saw the note she left behind. It turned out that after her breakthrough, she went out to train with Mo Ya and didn’t wait for Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun also didn’t take it to heart.
After that, he and Qiong Qi began to study how to explore the secret realm.
The Infernal Hell Serpent told Ye Liuyun the location where its Divine Sense had disappeared. It was under a big hall in the center of the alliance. Qiong Qi’s Divine Sense looked over and found that there was a formation covering it.
"How is it? Can you break the formation?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"It’s just a piece of cake. It can be broken easily. But there are too many Metal Puppets here, and their Divine Senses are too strong! How can we avoid their detection?" Qiong Qi asked.
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and borrowed Wu Qingcheng’s cloak of invisibility, "How about this?"
"A Holy Weapon? If I were to encounter a Metal Puppet above the fifth level of the Astral Realm, it would be of no use!" Qiong Qi hesitated.
"It doesn’t matter. Let’s upgrade these Holy Weapons first!"
Ye Liuyun introduced, "The alliance has the service to upgrade weapons and treasures. We can use them to upgrade first."
Therefore, Ye Liuyun summoned everyone to take out their weapons and treasures to upgrade.
In the end, except for his own saber, Lei Ming’s dagger, Megalithic Ape bone stick, and Wu Qingcheng’s and Yuer’s swords, the rest were all taken to the main hall to level up.
At the main hall, Ye Liuyun found that his highest authority could only upgrade them to the spiritual level. He could only upgrade the weapons and treasures to the supreme level after he broke through to the Astral Realm.
Therefore, Ye Liuyun only took the Formation Flag that Qiong Qi gave him, the cloak of invisibility, the Hallucination Mirror, the Shattering Sword Breaker, the Soul Suppressing Tower, the silver hammer, and a sword and a shield of Ruyue to upgrade. He did not upgrade Megalithic Ape’s weapon, instead he exchanged it for three Spirit Weapons.
Ye Liuyun tried to pay the fee with useless weapons and other resources, and for the remaining fee, he paid with Crystal Core. He felt that these Crystal Core were of great use in the alliance and could be exchanged for more good things, so he would try to save them for the exchange of resources.
Then, he took out some to replenish the resources that he had exchanged for with Emperor Sky Fortune before returning to his residence to wait to retrieve his weapons. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
The news that Ye Liuyun had returned to the alliance was quickly spread to the Jin family. Jin Lei and the others, who had gone to the Eastern Sea to kill him, were destined to not to be able to meet him again. Jin Lei, who was about to arrive at the Eastern Sea, was enraged.
He issued an order to the disciples of the Jin family in the alliance to do their best to kill Ye Liuyun.
While Ye Liuyun was away from the alliance, the Jin family had already gathered quite a few people to launch a sneak attack on Ye Liuyun.
At this moment, Liu Tianfeng, the master of the Sky Severing Pavilion, came out of seclusion. Previously, Liu Tianfeng had been in seclusion. After he came out of seclusion, he was informed that the Sky Severing Pavilion had suffered a great loss, so he began to ask about the situation. After that, he contacted the disciples of the Jin family and was ready to join forces with them to deal with Ye Liuyun.
A disciple of the Liu family reminded him, "The chief has given the order to wait and see for the moment!"
"Don’t worry. With my help, I can guarantee that Ye Liuyun won’t be able to escape this time. Do you think I’m like the good-for-nothings of the Jin family who chase after Ye Liuyun? I’ll set up a trap and wait for him to fall into it..."
Ye Liuyun was completely unaware of this. After the Metal Puppets upgraded their weapons, he and Qiong Qi did not make a move immediately. Instead, he was transmitted back to Martial Art Academy and left the Dragon Palace at the Heavenly Moat Summit. He did not even bring Lei Ming with him.
He only put Qiong Qi into his Interspatial Ring and then returned to the alliance.
The interior of the alliance was too dangerous. Once Ye Liuyun was discovered, it was very likely that he would not be able to escape the besiege of so many Metal Puppets at the Astral Realm. Therefore, Ye Liuyun could not let them take the risk with him.
After returning, he immediately put on the cloak of invisibility and sneaked out of the mountain where he was. When he arrived at the hall mentioned by the Infernal Hell Serpent, he sized up the formation there with his Golden Phantom Eyes. At the same time, he passed on what he saw to Qiong Qi and asked him to command him to break the formation. Although it was a little slow, it was much safer.
During the process of breaking the formation, Ye Liuyun had seen numerous inspections of the Divine Sense of the Metal Puppets. He had even encountered the patrol of the Metal Puppets once.
Every time Ye Liuyun would stop all his movements and stand motionlessly in the same spot. He only continued to act after they had inspected the area. The cloak of invisibility had already been upgraded to the spiritual level, so it could completely avoid the detection of an Astral Realm expert.
"That won’t do! You need to break the formation in one go. You have to start over again if you stop in between! The checking of these puppets are too frequent. You don’t have enough time at all!" Qiong Qi complained.
At this moment, a puppet walked toward the formation with a corpse in its hand.
"How about we follow this corpse inside?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"What if there is danger as soon as we enter?" Qiong Qi asked.
At this time, the puppet dragged the corpse closer and opened a gap in the formation with a token.
"It’s too late! Let’s go in first!" Ye Liuyun said as he leaned straight in.
The puppet threw the corpse in through the opening. Ye Liuyun leaped in right before the puppet closed the gap in the formation. Then, the formation was shut.
The Metal Puppet seemed to have sensed something, and immediately opened the formation again. It looked inside and saw that there was still only the corpse and did not see anyone else, so it closed the formation and left.
