C496 meetings

Aside from the War God Palace and the Realm of the Gods, there was another person on the Holy Spirit Continent that was rising at a similarly eye-catching speed. That person was the Holy Maiden of Phoenix Restaurant, Mu Qingyan.

Only, very few people knew that these few stunning girls that had shook the entire Holy Spirit Continent in the recent years had all benefited from the mystical techniques and cultivation resources left behind by Ye Daoxuan before he went out to train.

As for Mu Qingyan, she had an extremely good relationship with the few girls from the Realm of the Gods. When the girls had free time while cultivating in seclusion, they would often gather together to discuss martial arts insights.

One day at dusk, when the five girls, Mu Qingyan, Wenren Yiyue, Gu Xueyao, Tang Lianxue, and Yue Qingying were gathered at the Spring of Life and Death in the Realm of the Gods, discussing some feelings related to the martial way, the topic quickly shifted to Ye Daoxuan.

"Ye Daoxuan has been out training for almost a decade and there hasn't been any news about him. I'm really worried about him!"

"Don't worry, with his cultivation, he'll be fine no matter where he goes."

"The jade tablet that he left us with a strand of divine will is completely undamaged. His Soul Lamp in the Soul Lamp Hall has not been extinguished as well, which means that he is perfectly fine."

"I wonder what the results of his ten years of experience have been like, and what realm his cultivation has reached."

"Ye Daoxuan has the physique of one of the five elements, and his cultivation speed is at least five times faster than ours. Since we have already reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, he should be at least at the peak of the Divine Realm, right?"

… ….

The five women sat around the five cultivation stones, talking about Ye Daoxuan with smiles on their faces.

The current identities of the five women were at least elders of their respective sects. Normally, in front of their sect's disciples, they had to maintain a calm, noble, and elegant appearance, and only when the five of them were together would they take off their disguises, revealing their true sides.

Every time Ye Daoxuan was mentioned, the five women would always have endless words to say to each other. Even though they had already separated from him for ten years, they did not feel any estrangement or strangeness from him, and instead missed him even more.

After Ye Daoxuan had passed down the [Taishang Immortal Sutra] and the [Tasu Sutra] to the five women, the five women and Ye Daoxuan seemed to have been tied together by an invisible rope. Even though they were separated by the ends of the world, they would still be able to mentally connect with each other.

A few days ago, Martial God Palace's Palace Master, Chang Feng Wanli, and Heavenly Law Sect's Sect Master Xiao Tongxuan came to the Divine Realm. They said that the Stone Forest Sacred Grounds would soon open again, and the Blood Shadow Sect's disciples are currently gathering a large number of disciples and secretly gathering in that area.

Mu Qingyan's gaze swept across Gu Xueyao, Tang Lianxue, and the other female disciples. She continued to speak with a smile: "Palace Master Changfeng has already sent an invitation to our Phoenix Restaurant, telling us to bring the Phoenix Pavilion's elite disciples to the Stone Forest Sacred Grounds and gather with the other sect's elite disciples to besiege the Blood Shadow Sect … I presume that your Divine Realm has also received Palace Head Changfeng's invitation? "

Wenren Juanyue nodded: "That's right, when is your Phoenix Restaurant preparing to set off? When that time comes, we can leave together to go to the Stone Forest Sacred Grounds and take care of each other. "

Yue Qingying sighed and said, "Ye Daoxuan has a huge grudge with the Blood Shadow Sect. He has always wanted to destroy the Blood Shadow Sect, but unfortunately, all the sects have joined hands to deal with the Blood Shadow Sect. It's a pity that he isn't here."

Tang Lianxue said, "I've already crushed the communication jade token that Ye Daoxuan left behind. After he receives the news, he'll definitely rush back as fast as he can."

Gu Xueyao said, "I'm just afraid that he's too far away from the Realm of the Gods at the moment, and won't be able to return in time."

As he said this, the five women sighed to themselves. At the same time, they also made up their minds to deal with Blood Shadow Sect at full power. To be able to destroy Blood Shadow Sect could be considered to have solved a problem for Ye Daoxuan.

About a month later, more and more warriors arrived at the Stone Woods Holy Land. In just a few days, hundreds of thousands of warriors had already gathered.

Some of these warriors were invited by Long Wind and Xiao Tong's profound strength, and some of the disciples were from smaller sects, just to join in the fun. They wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to deal with Blood Shadow Sect and see if there were any benefits, which would allow them to build a closer relationship with the big sects.

Compared to the high profile of the various sects, the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect suddenly became much quieter. However, they did not retreat from the area of the Stone Forest Holy Land, but hid in the shadows, and used all sorts of methods to kill the elite disciples of the various sects. Within a few days, over a thousand disciples of the various sects had fallen, and they were all in miserable states of death.

The Blood Shadow Sect's actions undoubtedly ignited the anger of the various sects. The sects no longer adopted defensive positions, but instead took the initiative to attack, looking for the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect to engage in a decisive battle.

What infuriated the disciples of the various sects was that they still could not find the main force of the Blood Shadow Sect and were unable to establish their foothold through this battle.

Just like this, the two sides went on and on, the battle coming to a halt as they entered a stalemate state. It was in this state that the opening day of the Stone Forest Holy Land approached.

The hundreds of thousands of warriors on the Holy Spirit Continent were naturally led by the War God Palace. The Palace Master of the Palace, Zhang Fengli, and the Supreme Elder, Gu Tianyou, had always been behind the scenes and hadn't personally acted.

No one knew that Long Wind and Gu Tianyou, who were behind the scenes, were in a state of anxiety these days.

They always felt that there was an invisible pressure that could not be seen or felt, filling the area of the Stone Woods Holy Land. It seemed that there was a powerful warrior secretly watching them, and at any moment, he could take action and give them a fatal blow.

When Long Wind and Gu Tianyou were conversing in private, they were sure that this pressure came from the Blood Shadow Sect's side, and this invisible threat was the most dangerous for them. Right now, they could only be on high alert, taking precautions against danger.

"I haven't seen him in ten years, but I don't know where Ye Daoyuan's profound body is. Back then, when he went out to gain experience, he had already broken through to the Divine Division Realm. Ye Daoxuan is the martial artist with the highest talent that I have ever seen. Perhaps his cultivation has already surpassed mine. Unfortunately, he's not here right now. If the three of us were to join hands, we would be able to gain a bit more hope. " Long Wind sighed.

Even Changfeng Wanli was sighing. After a long while, he slowly said, "I keep having the feeling that Blood Shadow Sect is going to make a big move this time. Is it really as we suspected? Blood Shadow Sect is going to use this opening opportunity of the Stone Forest Holy Land to repair the space formation and receive the alien Desolate Clan's invasion? "

His fists were clenched tightly as his will to fight surged. He said in a deep voice, "If it is really an invasion by the Wasteland race, the Martial God Palace will take responsibility for this. We can only fight to the death!"

… ….

At the same time, in a forbidden area called "Profound Fire Realm" tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Stone Forest Sacred Grounds, dark clouds gathered in the sky like ink. Thunder rumbled, lightning snakes criss-crossed each other, and streak after streak of ten meter thick lightning repeatedly struck down from the sky, ruthlessly smashing onto Ye Daoxuan's body below.

At this moment, Ye Daoxuan had long been riddled with wounds, blood, and flesh. One could even vaguely make out the eerie white bones within.

Although he had received a heavy blow to his body due to the rolling heavenly thunder above his head, there was not a single trace of fear on Ye Daoxuan's face. All there was was was an unconcealable excitement and wild joy.

In these ten years, Ye Daoxuan had traversed the entire Holy Spirit Continent, passing through many forbidden grounds that caused millions of warriors to be terrified. With the help of luck and his innate talent, he had long since broken through from the Spirit Severing Stage to the Lightning Calamity Stage, and now, he had even reached the fifth stage of the Lightning Calamity.

At this moment, Ye Daoxuan was undergoing the sixth level of tribulation lightning. As long as he succeeded, he would be an expert of the sixth level of thunder tribulation.

After entering the Divine Tribulation Realm from the Spirit Severing Stage, Ye Daoxuan's strength had increased by more than a hundred times. He had made a qualitative leap in all aspects, preparing to pass through the few remaining legendary forbidden grounds and return to the Realm of the Gods.

Over the past ten years, Ye Daoxuan's strength had increased tremendously, and he had also killed quite a few Blood Shadow Sect disciples. Unfortunately, he had not been able to find the Blood Shadow Sect's lair, and could not help but feel some regret.

However, Ye Daoxuan also had a strong intuition that he was getting closer and closer to the Blood Shadow Sect's lair. Perhaps in the next moment, the Blood Shadow Sect would be exposed to his eyes.
