The Mo Clan were very efficient.
After Mo Yu contacted his family, many powerful figures rushed over to investigate the stronghold and conduct a major reshuffle of its high-ranking personnel.
Some distance from the stronghold, Mo Yu and Lu Changsheng walked and cultivated.
First, Lu Changsheng planned to thoroughly investigate the power structure and specific circumstances of the Chaos Realm.
After all, they'll inevitably be coming to the Chaos Realm in the future, Ye Qiubai and his gang of brats will definitely cause trouble—that's beyond doubt.
Secondly, Mo Yu was also working hard to digest the two top-tier techniques given to her by Lu Changsheng, asking Lu Changsheng how to cultivate these two techniques while practicing.
After Mo Yu stopped cultivating for a while, she looked at Lu Changsheng and her face suddenly fell. She said, "Master, we didn't need you to take action when we were at the stronghold. The Lineage allowed me to come here, which was also a form of protection for me."
Lu Changsheng pretended to be unaware, as if he didn't know anything.
" The Lineage's elder has been secretly protecting me, which is why I said I could protect you."
"But for some reason, I suddenly lost contact with the Grand Elder while we were underground, as if everything had been cut off. I guess the people at the stronghold anticipated this and prepared some kind of isolation formation in advance."
Lu Changsheng nodded. "There is indeed an isolation formation."
Mo Yu exclaimed, "Right, right! I told you we couldn't contact the Grand Elder. But the fact that they can block the Grand Elder's senses and transmit sound means they've probably secretly allied themselves with some powerful force. I told the Grand Elder, and they'll definitely start investigating when they get back."
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng's expression was conflicted and hesitant. He glanced at Mo Yu and then said, "Tell your Lineage to stop investigating..."
Mo Yu was stunned. "Why? The appearance of a formation master of this level on the Heavenly Mystery Continent is a big deal!"
Lu Changsheng pointed to himself and said, "Yes, I'm the one who set up the isolation formation."
Why?
Mo Yu stared blankly at Lu Changsheng, his face completely dazed.
Lu Changsheng shrugged and said, "We have to be careful. The commotion I'm making down here is bound to attract attention, so I set up the formation in advance."
Mo Yu said, both amused and exasperated, "With Master's strength, even if people outside broke in, you could easily handle it, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng looked serious, leaned close to Mo Yu's face, and raised a finger, instructing her with extreme solemnity. "Since you are now taking me as your master, this will be the first lesson I teach you."
"When you're out in the world, no matter how powerful you are, how strong your background is, or how high your talent or ability is, you must always remember one thing: there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding!"
"So what?"
"Therefore, you must be extremely cautious in everything you do. Avoid taking action if possible. Even if you absolutely must, investigate your opponent's strength beforehand to ensure they don't have powerful backers. Then, when you do act, eliminate them swiftly and decisively, leaving no trace!"
"It would be best to conceal your strength; your Senior Brother Mu did a good job in that regard."
Previously, Lu Changsheng had introduced Mo Yu to her senior brothers and sisters.
Mo Yu's eyes lit up as he asked curiously, "I remember Master said that Senior Brother and the others are in the Chaos Realm right now, right?"
Lu Changsheng nodded.
"Shall we go find them?" Mo Yu asked excitedly.
Lu Changsheng shook his head and said, "Let's not go now, we'll talk about it later. If I go now, I'm afraid I'll run into a lot of trouble."
"Let's wander around this Heavenly Mystery Continent for a while and get a general understanding of the situation here before we make any decisions."
Hmm, let's also set up a few more spatial nodes, just in case.
One of the three great divine dynasties, the Black Tortoise Divine Dynasty.
In a grand hall lined with numerous Black Tortoise sculptures on both sides, a line of blood emerged from the brow of each Black Tortoise sculpture, which then converged into the body of a naked man in the center of the hall.
At this moment, the man opened his eyes, his gaze filled with bloodshot resentment, and gritted his teeth, saying, "I will make you pay the price!"
The low growl carried a tearing quality, and one could tell from the tone alone just how much resentment the Xuanming Holy Son harbored.
At that moment, the palace doors opened, and a burly man in a dark imperial robe walked in. He looked at the Xuanming Holy Son and said calmly, "This time, you can be said to have turned misfortune into blessing. The Blood Escape Technique destroyed your physical body, Black Tortoise Statue helped you rebuild it, making you even stronger."
"You are the only person in all these years of our Black Tortoise Divine Dynasty to awaken the Xuanming Bloodline. You must keep your State of Mind clear. If you have any inner demons, go and resolve them."
The Xuanming Holy Son nodded, took a deep breath, and suppressed his resentment slightly before saying, "I need to get used to this body first."
The burly man nodded with satisfaction. "You've grown up, haven't you?"
Nine Dragons Divine Dynasty.
Few people visit the White Dragon Courtyard, and even fewer are able to enter it.
Prince Jiu Xuan was one of them.
Jiu Xuan was sitting in the pavilion, looking at the woman watering the garden.
She wore a white dress that seemed untouched by the world's filth, and her long hair was held up by two maids to prevent it from falling to the ground. Even just a glimpse of her profile was breathtaking.
"Sister, you lost contact with Brother Mu? You haven't spoken to him since the Prince's tomb?" Jiu Xuan asked. " Brother Mu hasn't contacted you either?"
Jiu Bailu chuckled and shook their heads.
"Ah? Brother Mu, how cruel he is!" Jiu Xuan covered his forehead and said with a wry smile, "If it were anyone else in the Chaos Realm, they would probably be eager to see you, my elder sister, every day."
No, you've been through drug rehabilitation?
"Some things can't be forced," Jiu Bailu said with a smile. "Besides, my fate is intertwined with his; even if we don't contact each other, we'll eventually meet again."
"Moreover, I have a feeling that day is not far off."
Jiu Xuan casually lay on the stone steps, his hands behind his head, and laughed, "How could that be? There haven't been any major events lately, and you don't keep in touch with each other, so how could we possibly meet?"
However, no sooner had she finished speaking than a maid rushed in and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, there may be something that requires your intervention."
"What's up?"
After the maid finished speaking.
Jiu Xuan stared blankly at Jiu Bailu.
After handing the watering can to the maid, Jiu Bailu looked at Jiu Xuan and chuckled, saying, "It seems my premonition was quite accurate."
Jiu Xuan had to admit his admiration.
At this moment, within the Chaotic Spirit Academy.
All the direct disciples and inner court disciples gathered in a square.
No one dared to speak loudly as they stood in the square, all staring intently at the high platform above.
There were already eight people standing there.
This included five inner court elders, as well as the Grand Elder who had recently been appointed as vice dean and two other vice deans.
However, there was one vacancy among them.
Without a sound, an old man suddenly appeared between the inner dean and the three vice deans.
"The academic exchange program on the Heavenly Mystery Continent is about to begin, and it will also be crucial for selecting participants in the Six Realms Academy Grand Competition. I hope everyone is ready."
