The two continued forward. Judging from the battle traces along the way, two Ninth Tribulation Dominators from the Moon Emperor Palace and Water Moon Cave Heaven had been fighting the Ancient Species as they pushed deeper into the Secret Realm.
Along the way, Mu Qing and Elder Gou An also encountered quite a few people from Moon Domain forces. There were three major factions in total: the Moon Emperor Palace, the Dark Moon Sect, and Water Moon Cave Heaven.
The Moon Emperor Palace naturally stood behind the Moon Emperor, a great Dharma Body expert, while the Dark Moon Sect and Water Moon Cave Heaven were factions guarded by Half-Step Dharma Body experts, not small forces either.
At present, both the Moon Emperor Palace and Water Moon Cave Heaven had Ninth Tribulation Dominators present, joining forces against the Ancient Species.
The Dark Moon Sect's Ninth Tribulation Dominator had not arrived yet, so most of the people they encountered along the way were from the Dark Moon Sect.
Mu Qing and Elder Gou An stopped quite a few Dark Moon Sect members, questioning them and obtaining plenty of information.
It seemed that people from other factions had also intervened. Dragon Domain experts had appeared, following the two Ninth Tribulation Dominators of the Moon Domain all the way, hoping to seize the Ancient Species.
But the details remained unclear. After all, these Dark Moon Sect members had fled out from within, and they did not understand the battle situation either.
However, through Legilimency, Mu Qing still uncovered one piece of information from their minds: the Dark Moon Sect's Ninth Tribulation Dominator would be arriving soon as well.
Battles involving an Ancient Species were basically the domain of Ninth Tribulation Dominators. The rest, with their lower Dominator cultivation, did not even have the qualifications
