This order came too abruptly.
The chilling sounds had just faded from the sky when this suddenly happened.
Without a doubt, it must be related to the powerful demon in the other Blessed Land.
The message was extremely brief.
However, Lu Li still gleaned a lot of useful information from it.
Lord of the Manor... A grand plan spanning millennia, the Prefecture-Breaking War.
Faced with such a momentous event, even the great demons of the surrounding Blessed Land dared not act rashly.
Even if they wanted to test Azure Pool, they had no choice but to send cultivators from its Blessed Land...
"Etc!"
Lu Li's expression suddenly froze; he suddenly realized something was wrong.
These cultivators... are so obedient and compliant because they know of the existence of the great demon...
Or, like Azure Pool before, were they kept in the dark and sent here under a pretext?
If these cultivators were kept in the dark, they would be truly pitiful.
At the slightest thought from above, they would fight to the death.
But what if... these cultivators knew the truth and came of their own volition?
That means the truth behind each Blessed Land is far beyond Lu Li's imagination.
Lu Li's thoughts were still racing.
Yuanhao's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
A voice transmission, accompanied by the aura of True Lord, rang out indifferently.
"There are many cultivators passing through this area, Azure Pool is in dire need of manpower."
"All disciples of the sect must leave the sect to kill him, including me... and you too."
"Hmph, take this Tier 3 Sun-Piercing True Shuttle. It was a gift from the Ancestor. He told me to tell you... don't die."
Yuanhao's words were indifferent, tinged with impatience and a hint of bitterness.
Clearly, Lu Li's identity is far more important than his.
However, he had never received such treatment before, being rewarded with a third-tier Law Artifact by the ancestor upon reaching the Foundation Establishment.
At that moment, I was naturally somewhat resentful.
Before Lu Li reply, the words were spoken.
Yuanhao casually tossed out a palm-sized spear-like magical Law Artifact, which flew towards Lu Li.
It hovered in front of him, then turned and went back to its cave abode.
Looking at the third-tier Law Artifact in front of him, which was pale gold and shimmering with light, Lu Li stood there stunned.
True Lord's Artifacts...
So easily I obtained a True Lord's weapon!
Is this toad demon really grooming him as a core employee?
" The Sun-Piercing True Shuttle... could it be a relic left behind by the former Peak Master of the Supreme Refinement Peak, True Lord Chiyang?"
Lu Li's thoughts flickered, and he raised his hand to grab the spear-shaped magical Law Artifact in front of him and examine it closely.
As far as the eye could see, the golden sunlight shimmered faintly, its sharp rays piercing and disturbing.
As expected of a third-tier True Lord's Law Artifact, it is already so miraculous even before it has been refined or activated.
If it is truly awakened, its power will not be underestimated.
With a thought, Lu Li put away the Sun-Piercing True Shuttle and returned to his cave abode.
All disciples were to leave the sect, and naturally, the two beloved disciples were no exception.
Xu Xiong was the same.
Since that's the case... why not just form a team!
It's safer that way.
Judging from Yuanhao's words, even he himself was going to leave his sect to kill them, it seems that among the cultivators passing through this area, there might be True Lord among them...
Back in his cave abode, Lu Li wasted no time.
First, he sent a message to Xu Xiong, telling him to get ready and agreeing to leave the sect together.
After settling Changming Changye in and giving them some instructions, he took out two sets of Battle Law Armor 2.0, plus two Spirit Machinery Mech 2.0 that the Great Xia had recently optimized.
Let them get used to it as soon as possible.
Only then did he return to his inner chamber and transmit the information he possessed back to the Great Xia.
He took out the newly acquired third-tier Law Artifact Sun-Piercing True Shuttle, and tried to mobilize his Spiritual Power to refine it.
"Buzz~!"
"Buzz! Buzz!"
The Spiritual Power surged, overflowing from his Dantian and enveloping the Sun-Piercing True Shuttle...
Lu Li refined it for three consecutive days, and finally succeeded in refining it completely.
On the day of his success, the Sun-Piercing True Shuttle in front of him suddenly trembled.
It emitted rays of golden light, so dazzling that it blocked out the sun and was extremely bright.
With a thought, the Law Artifact swelled in the wind, transforming into the size of a flying sword, half the height of a person, in the blink of an eye.
A sharp aura emanated from the entire cave abode!
As expected of a third-tier Law Artifact, Lu Li slightly adjusted the tip of the shuttle with his fingers.
He knew that if he were to face this Law Artifact, he probably wouldn't last even half a round.
Regardless of Law Artifact, Cultivation Method, spells, or spiritual materials and minerals, entering the third tier brings about a sudden qualitative change.
Its efficacy and power are all wondrous.
It's simply incomparable to items used for first or second-tier cultivation.
"With this Law Artifact, as long as we don't encounter Golden Core on this journey out of the sect, there shouldn't be any major problems."
"Perfect timing. I'll go out and check on how my Spirit Vein and mineral deposits are developing. If they've matured..."
"It would be good to take this opportunity to send it back to Great Xia; I'm too worried about leaving it outside."
"If it's not ripe..."
If the formation isn't fully developed, Lu Li's trip will be a good opportunity to reinforce the array he set up back then.
He has now learned many second-order array formations and plates, and is upgrading them.
Once the Spirit Vein matures, apart from Golden Core True Lord who might risk being exposed if they pass by, others will definitely not notice.
This matter was the most important thing for him on this trip.
I checked my preparations and confirmed that everything was in order.
Lu Li slowly walked out of the cave abode.
Changming and Changye waited respectfully at the door and saw Lu Li out.
The two immediately bowed and clasped their hands in greeting, speaking in unison.
"Master!"
"Master, you've emerged from seclusion!"
"Hmm... Changming Changye, this departure from the sect will surely bring bloodshed to the three prefectures."
"If you two sense anything amiss, please report it immediately. Always be cautious."
"I will obey your orders, Master!"
"..."
Looking at his two apprentices, Lu Li breathed a slight sigh of relief.
With these two precious disciples around, our safety on this trip out of the sect can at least be guaranteed.
Even now, the Changming Changye has not revealed whether it will bring fortune or misfortune...
It's highly likely that this trip will be safe and worry-free.
Without further ado, he released his flying sword and shouted, "Let's go!"
At his command, Changming Changye, who had just reached the Qi Refinement Seventh Layer, also quickly released his flying sword.
Following behind Lu Li, the three of them flew to the dilapidated mountain gate, where Xu Xiong was already waiting.
Seeing Lu Li from afar, she waved hello.
" Senior Brother Lu!"
"Junior Brother Xu."
He nodded, indicating his approval.
The four of them flew out of the sect.
In the past few days, most of the Azure Pool disciples have left the sect.
Although the disciples were unwilling to undertake this mandatory task, they dared not delay.
The thought of that terrifying figure who could overwhelm the entire Azure Pool Three Commanderies made it impossible for anyone to delay.
After leaving the sect, Lu Li discovered that the situation in the three prefectures was far more complicated than he had imagined.
What I saw was a ravaged land, a scene of unrest and turmoil. I wondered if it was caused by the upheaval at Azure Pool or by the actions of the foreign cultivators...
The whole world seemed to be in a state of catastrophe.
Having cultivated for so long, Lu Li once again leaving the sect, his heart filled with turmoil.
Back then, Ye Chenfeng and he had quite a few interactions outside the sect.
Everything has changed.
Thinking of Ye Chenfeng, Lu Li was filled with emotion.
I wonder where this Heavenly Fate protagonist is now, and what his fate holds...
