Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 293 - 240: The Letter Arrives

The Judge died far too swiftly.

After Han Yu descended from the sky, the black vortex above the heavens had not yet dissipated and continued to churn.

If the Judge really had detonated here just now, none of these Divine Gaze Realm cultivators would have had a chance to escape.

Ling Wuce’s face was grim; this was already the umpteenth time encountering such strange energy outbursts.

The Corpse Refining Lineage was truly ruthless; it was one thing to have Divine Gaze Realm subordinates lay hidden traps, but even Transcendent Realm subordinates could lay hidden traps.

Could it be that reaching the Realm of Transcendence really meant nothing to them?

"White Emperor City is likely half-destroyed."

Ye Hei was listening to the report from the Palace Guard, shaking his head.

Although the entire city wasn’t as thoroughly destroyed as Dongling City, the civilian casualties couldn’t be compared to Dongling City.

A full thirty percent were parasitized by Ox, and whether this thirty percent of the civilians could be saved was still unknown.

Among the remaining seventy percent, those affected by the collateral damage from the cultivators’ battle occupied another twenty percent.

Ye Hei, who understood sect management, knew what these fifty percent figures represented.

This was equivalent to a large sect being exterminated.

Equivalent to at least ten small sects being uprooted.

The resettlement of personnel afterwards was really something that the Imperial Court would have to arrange.

After all, the total of thirty percent civilians amounted to nearly a thousand; these people certainly couldn’t stay in White Emperor City.

Before they are cured, it would be a significant hidden danger.

Indeed, it was no small problem.

As for the rest, rebuilding the city was easier, but the vitality of White Emperor City would take three to five years to recover.

"Can you lend me that Dragon Blood Stone you have?"

Ling Wuce suddenly spoke to Han Yu and then quickly added.

"I need to take it back to the Fifth Tower for examination."

Ye Hei was somewhat pensive.

"Does Lord Ling think there is a problem with the Dragon Blood Stone?"

In fact, regarding the value of the Dragon Blood Stone itself, it is indeed immense.

But that is for Divine Gaze Realm cultivators or some sects.

After all, such a stone could create a Transcendent Realm cultivator.

But it certainly shouldn’t cause two Transcendent Realm cultivators to vie for it in such a manner; its value is great, but it’s primarily for individuals.

However, for a large force, having one more Transcendent Realm cultivator changes nothing.

Take Ou Mingdong for instance; after he obtained the Dragon Blood Stone, Unparalleled Tower knew about it.

It was a big deal for Ou Mingdong but not for Unparalleled Tower.

It wasn’t enough to stir up trouble within Unparalleled Tower.

Thus, the attitude of the Corpse Refining Lineage towards the Dragon Blood Stone was intriguing.

"Can you discern anything about the Dragon Blood Stone?"

In his heart, Han Yu secretly asked the Artifact Spirit.

The response was that Glass gave him a big eye-roll, indicating it wasn’t omnipotent and couldn’t sense everything.

The ghostly paths’ postnatal divine techniques were vivid examples, always realized too late.

Not to mention this spiritually imbued stone, which fundamentally didn’t belong to divine power energy.

"Nonsense, if I knew this thing had a problem, would I still be lounging on it daily?"

Knowing there could be an issue with the Dragon Blood Stone, Glass showed an extremely disdainful expression towards its stone bed.

After some thought, Han Yu retrieved the stone from his Sea of Consciousness.

Upon receiving it, Ling Wuce examined it thoroughly but found nothing suspicious.

"It seems the Hundred Herbs Bureau’s mad alchemists will have to take over."

Holding the stone, Ling Wuce was inclined to head back.

These parasitized civilians definitely couldn’t be left unchecked; he needed to return to the Fifth Tower promptly to devise a solution.

Furthermore, given the enormity of this event, he had to report back to the Imperial Court swiftly.

The intelligence on the Corpse Refining Lineage also needed to be taken back to Quan Xiaotong promptly.

The speculation regarding the Dragon Blood Stone needed verification from the Hundred Herbs Bureau.

And as for the aftermath in White Emperor City.

Counting it up, Ling Wuce not only couldn’t stay longer but also needed to depart soon.

At least restore the livelihoods in White Emperor City and begin post-disaster reconstruction.

Ye Hei glanced at Ou Mingdong, who had been thrown out by his own Divine Spring after the event and was now being supported by Su Wanjun.

"I guess you’ll be staying here to recover slowly."

Ou Mingdong’s old face turned red, but he didn’t argue. Since Su Wanjun was arranged to be here, he was determined not to leave.

"I don’t plan to return to the Sect."

Huangfu Liang suddenly spoke.

He’s not going back to Langya Mountain?

"You don’t plan to stay here with Ou Mingdong, do you?"

Han Yu’s eyes were strange. Doesn’t this guy have any tact? Ou Mingdong had barely survived and had the chance to be alone with Su Wanjun, another annoying presence would undoubtedly be unwelcome.

Sure enough, after hearing Han Yu’s words, Ou Mingdong’s expression turned slightly grim when he looked at Huangfu Liang.

"I want to return to Dongyi City."

Huangfu Liang said seriously and earnestly.

Since the Dragon Blood Stone was lost, the opportunity for Breaking Realm naturally vanished with it.

Even if he had the stone now, he wouldn’t dare to use it.

The journey to White Emperor City had a significant impact on him, and he suddenly wanted to try entering the world to protect one side, adopting a different mindset for cultivation.

Perhaps a breakthrough in the Mental Realm could later lead him to break through to the Realm of Transcendence on his own.

"Be careful about your side effects."

Han Yu couldn’t help but advise him. With the effect of the Pills, as long as Huangfu Liang didn’t act recklessly, it didn’t matter whether he returned to the Sect.

The resources of the Sect might not be able to provide him with a continuous supply.

But in Dongyi City, as long as he didn’t die, he could drink to his heart’s content, and his cultivation speed would continue to rise.

As for himself, before the Corpse Refining Lineage came out to cause trouble, his strength was growing at a terrifying rate.

However, the appearance of those guys from Yellow Springs Mansion did serve as a significant warning.

His physical body wasn’t without weaknesses, and his Divine Techniques could be suppressed.

Even the altar — if that altar wasn’t a fake, would he be able to withstand it if he encountered it in reality?

More importantly, the words of the Judge before he died, indicating that in front of Yama Hall, a Transcendent Realm Cultivator was an ant.

Doesn’t that imply that Yama Hall has means to easily kill Transcendent Realm Cultivators?

What kind of mysterious power is this?

After Han Yu expressed his thoughts, the atmosphere instantly became heavy.

"Joining forces with the Nine Sects and the Imperial Court seems urgent."

Ling Wuce sighed. If Yama Hall is indeed as terrifying as it seems, both the Nine Sects and the Imperial Court need to prepare in advance.

"When I return, I’ll mention today’s events to the Sect."

Ye Hei nodded solemnly. The hidden strength behind the Corpse Refining Lineage was too terrifying.

Just from what Qi Bai revealed, and what he himself saw, their cultivation techniques and various magical treasures were unlike anything seen in the Cultivator Realm. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

No matter what such a colossus intends to do, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Cultivator Realm.

"What about you? Do you want to return to the Fifth Tower with me?"

Ling Wuce looked at Han Yu and asked. Given the current circumstances, Han Yu and the Corpse Refining Lineage were at odds. If he returned to the Fifth Tower, it could offer some protection.

"I’d better not!"

Han Yu shook his head. If he really went, not to mention whether that old man would constantly come for debates, the Hundred Herbs Bureau wouldn’t let him off. If they came looking for him to discuss Pills and medicine, he’d be exposed sooner or later.

Besides, if he didn’t refine Pills in broad daylight and kept coming up with different ones every day, even a fool would know there was a problem over time.

Collaboration is fine, but going in is a different story.

Ling Wuce didn’t press further; the invitation was out of goodwill, and if Han Yu didn’t need it, there was no point in insisting.

"Look, something’s flying over."

Huangfu Liang suddenly exclaimed, and when everyone looked up, a Communication Bird was speeding toward them from the sky.

Ling Wuce thought it was a message from the Inspectorate and was about to reach out to receive it, but the Communication Bird bypassed him.

Han Yu stared dumbfounded at the Communication Bird that stopped in front of him, and then a round sphere dropped from the bird’s behind. When it hit the ground, it opened, revealing an image.

"Han Yu, gather at the East Sea. That fellow found an interesting thousand-year-old relic..."

A group of people looked at the holographic image of Mo Xiuwen gesturing and talking with odd expressions. The Mo Family was showcasing a new trick with the Communication Bird?

Only Ou Mingdong and Han Yu knew that it was undoubtedly the handiwork of Cousin, none other than Mo Xiuwen.

The sphere was a recording tool he helped Ou Mingdong create before. Unexpectedly, Cousin modified it so that even sound could be recorded.

This method of communication was novel, no wonder everyone was taken aback.

Additionally, the content from Cousin was intriguing.

An interesting thousand-year relic? Wasn’t that fellow heading south to find Yi Xian and the others?

When did he run off to the East Sea?

When did he get in touch with Cousin?
