Chapter 606: Chapter 288 Deep Erosion, The Other Side of the Jiuyou Channel_2
Surrounding the square was a massive fortress made of tal.
As an Artifact Refiner, Lu Yi had a discerning eye and he imdiately realized that these were all made of Immortal Gold.
He was a bit surprised in his heart, could it be that this enormous fortress was entirely constructed from Immortal Gold?
Even if it wasn’t a Planet Fortress, the difference wasn’t that much.
Weird Array Patterns were engraved throughout the fortress.
These Array Patterns were sothing Lu Yi had never seen before, which made him sowhat astonished.
Seeing this, Ling Luo Peak Master explained, “These are Array Patterns designed to disperse the Jiuyou Qi. Generally speaking, Cultivators who have been corrupted by Jiuyou will struggle to conceal their true forms within such a Great Array, though there are exceptions. Therefore, at the exit, there are specially crafted cultivation treasures dedicated to detecting whether a Cultivator has been corrupted by the Jiuyou Qi.”
East Palace Ming Yue curiously asked, “Master, are there cases where Cultivators corrupted by Jiuyou haven’t been detected by it?”
Ling Luo Peak Master glanced at East Palace Ming Yue and raised her eyebrows, “Of course there are. Although that treasure is not weak, the Jiuyou Qi is very peculiar and might not be fully detectable. So Cultivators tainted by the Jiuyou Qi have left the Jiuyou Battlefield, causing so trouble. Right, Wang Jianyuan of the Immortal Sword Sect was one such case. He returned to Tianming and ultimately led to the destruction of the Immortal Sword Sect himself.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi and the others all suddenly understood.
Liu Ningshuang, with a worried frown, said, “With so many defenses, we are still unable to completely block the corruption of the Jiuyou Qi… This Jiuyou Qi is truly terrifying.”
“Naturally, or else it wouldn’t be feared by all the forces across the universe,” Ling Luo Peak Master shook her head helplessly and continued, “The Jiuyou Demons are inexhaustible. Once, an Immortal Venerable slaughtered all the demons in a Jiuyou Battlefield, but within a few years, new demons had erged. Cultivators must be constantly dispatched here to kill the Jiuyou Demons.”
Lu Yi, sowhat curious, asked, “Master, can’t we pass through the Jiuyou Channel and take a look at the world where the Jiuyou Demons reside?”
Hearing this, Ling Luo Peak Master fell silent, before her expression turned serious, “It’s not that there haven’t been attempts. Although I haven’t seen it myself, legend has it that over a billion years ago, a powerful team composed of Immortal Venerables ventured into Jiuyou’s Land.”
“And then?” Jian Ruyu’s eyes widened with curiosity.
“They all died, not one returned,” Ling Luo Peak Master said calmly.
“…”
For a mont, Lu Yi and the others fell silent.
If so many Immortal Venerables hadn’t managed to co back, just how terrifying was the Jiuyou World?
Lu Yi and the others felt their scalps tingle.
Even Lu Yi was terrified.
Ling Luo Peak Master spoke again, “Over the years, all the major powers in the universe have been researching Jiuyou’s Land, and have discovered that the Jiuyou Channel only blocks Jiuyou Demons. So powerful Jiuyou Demons cannot pass through the weak Jiuyou Channel to enter our world, similar to this Zhen’an Battlefield. However, we can freely cross the Jiuyou Channel, as if so power is blocking the Jiuyou Demons, protecting our universe.”
Lu Yi and Liu Ningshuang exchanged glances with the other two.
“But, if the situation remains as it is now, then as long as we control the Jiuyou Battlefield well, we don’t need to worry too much about the Jiuyou Demons, right?” Yun Xi ventured.
Lu Yi and the others nodded slightly in agreent.
Upon hearing this, Ling Luo Peak Master’s mouth twitched and with a head full of black lines, she said helplessly, “Then you are thinking too simply. The Jiuyou Channels are gradually increasing, and there will be more and more in the future.”
“What?!” On hearing this, Lu Yi and the others exclaid in shock.
“Do you rember that patch of Jiuyou’s Land on Tianming? That was the prelude to the formation of a Jiuyou Channel. Now we can still seal that exit with a Great Array, but it won’t be long before the exit will gradually expand and even the Great Array will be insufficient to seal it. We can only completely seal that space and turn it into a Jiuyou Battlefield,” Ling Luo Peak Master said with a serious expression.
Lu Yi and the others widened their eyes in astonishnt.
“What?! Tianming will beco a Jiuyou Battlefield in the future?!”
“What about the creatures of Tianming?”
Lu Yi and the others could hardly accept it for a mont.
Ling Luo Peak Master continued, “This is not sothing you need to worry about. When the Great Array can’t hold anymore, soone will take the creatures from that planet away.”
Then Ling Luo Peak Master looked at Lu Yi and said with a light laugh, “However, to tell the truth, Tianming owes you a lot, Lu Yi.”
“?” Lu Yi looked puzzled.
“Of course. Generally speaking, when a Jiuyou Channel appears on a Mortal Star, it expands rapidly, but on an Immortal Star, the expansion slows down considerably. The Immortal Spirit Qi inhibits the spread of Jiuyou Qi. When you ascended, you elevated Tianming from a Mortal Star to an Immortal Star, allowing Tianming to exist for a much longer ti.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi suddenly understood and felt sowhat helpless inside, “Unfortunately, there’s no way to block the Jiuyou Channel.”
Ling Luo Peak Master rolled her eyes, “Stop dreaming about that. Unless you can enter the other side of the Jiuyou Channel and see for yourself how it ford.”
The corner of Lu Yi’s mouth twitched, and he was full of black lines, “How am I supposed to get there?”
Even teams of Immortal Venerables get annihilated in instances, let alone him, a weak Heavenly Immortal chicken; was he supposed to go and get killed?
Nevertheless, Lu Yi took note of this matter in his heart.
He felt that, with his current Cultivation Base talent and having absorbed the foundations of a Tao Treasure and a Chaos Treasure, not to brag, but becoming an Immortal King, or even an Immortal Emperor, shouldn’t be too much of a problem, right?
Once he beca an Immortal Emperor, perhaps he could learn about the situation over there?
He still needed to cultivate diligently.
Otherwise, if Jiuyou Channels appeared everywhere in the universe, the universe would be dood sooner or later.
“Enough about that, how do you all feel now?” Ling Luo Peak Master changed the subject from the Jiuyou Channel and looked at Lu Yi and his companions to ask.
Lu Yi was taken aback, sowhat unclear of Ling Luo Peak Master’s intentions.
Liu Ningshuang furrowed her brows and spoke up, “I can feel Jiuyou Qi gathering, but we can still withstand it.”
“Sa here,” Jian Ruyu nodded slightly.
Yun Xi and Donggong Ming Yue also nodded, indicating they felt the sa.
Only then did Lu Yi understand that his Master was referring to the problem of Jiuyou Qi’s erosion.
His expression turned a bit odd.
He felt no discomfort whatsoever, as if Jiuyou Qi did not exist at all.
Right… Why does it feel like Jiuyou Qi is nonexistent?
Only now did Lu Yi realize, and he looked around with a strange expression on his face. This was the Jiuyou Battlefield, what was going on?
Ling Luo Peak Master looked at Lu Yi but did not question further, “You lad will certainly have no problems.”
Lu Yi nodded, “Hmm.”
It was not just a lack of problems, it was suspiciously problem-free.
He felt no different from being outside.
Ling Luo Peak Master seriously turned to Donggong Ming Yue and Yun Xi, “You two just ascended and are the weakest. Your resistance to Jiuyou’s erosion is also the weakest. If you can’t hold on, you must speak up. Otherwise, if the Jiuyou Qi deeply erodes you, no one can save you, not even this lad Lu Yi.”
Donggong Ming Yue and Yun Xi imdiately nodded earnestly.
They were well aware of how terrifying Jiuyou Qi was and dared not take it lightly.
“Alright, let’s move on,” Ling Luo Peak Master then led Lu Yi and the others away from the square.
She explained, “This is the base camp of the Jiuyou Battlefield, where all the immortals who co in can rest and recover. If they’re on mission, they must kill a hundred Jiuyou Demons of the sa level and stay for a full one hundred years. If they exceed that, rit is calculated. With enough rit, one can leave early. If they’re here for training, then there are no such restrictions, and they can leave at any ti.”
“Master, what should we do now? Go out and kill Jiuyou Demons?” Donggong Ming Yue appeared eager to try.
At this mont, Lu Yi thought of sothing and said, “Right, Master, previously, a cultivator from Divine Sword Sect nad Bu Yunjian asked for a favor. He said if I ca to the Zhen’an Battlefield, to find a Divine Sword Sect immortal nad Wei Kang. How should I go about finding soone?”
“Looking for soone? We just need to check at the base camp’s registration office. All the immortals need to record their rest ti to prevent erosion and various accidents.”
“I see, let’s go take a look then,” Lu Yi said with a smile.
