Chapter 811: Chapter 384 The Immortal Venerables of the Yu Family
The words of this Immortal Venerable from the Rashamon Clan silences all his kin.
One of the Rashamon Clan’s Immortal Monarchs hesitated before speaking, “Perhaps… they fear a Pyrrhic victory? After all, given the Human Clan’s Immortal Monarch’s demonstrated strength, which seems on par with an Immortal Venerable, coupled with the many powerhouses already present in the Sky Falling Star Domain, if they planned to invade our Rashamon Star Domain, we would likely be unable to withstand them.”
Another Immortal Monarch thought of something and nodded, “I heard that Yu Cheng of the Yu Family seems to have made further progress and may have comprehended the Origin Power. Together with this Human Clan’s Immortal Monarch, their strength must be remarkably formidable.”
At this, one of the Rashamon Clan’s Immortal Venerables frowned and shook his head, “Unlikely, even if old Yu Cheng and this young Human Clan fellow are both powerful, even if they could defeat our Rashamon Clan head-on, as long as we top fighters are here, avoiding direct confrontation, we can still inflict heavy losses on them, which they probably don’t want.”
“This…” Many Immortal Monarchs looked at each other, none refuting.
After all, if Immortal Venerables wanted to flee, there were plenty of ways to do so. Even if the Yu Family was proficient in the Fate Skill, good at tracking, but after battling them for so many years, they weren’t without corresponding countermeasures.
As long as they couldn’t be captured, Immortal Venerable-level powerhouses were capable of turning the Sky Falling Star Domain upside down.
“So what exactly is this Human Clan’s Immortal Monarch thinking? Could he really be planning to help our Rashamon Clan resist the Jiuyou Demons?” one Immortal Monarch questioned, puzzled.
The others shook their heads, unable to provide an answer.
One of the Immortal Venerables said, “Let’s discuss it further. If the risk is indeed not great, we might consider allying with them. After all… Jiuyou is our common enemy.”
All the Immortal Monarchs nodded in agreement.
…
Aboard the Yu Family’s Heavenly Boat, Yu Xin and the others were likewise asking Lu Yi about why he intended to help the Rashamon Clan seal the Jiuyou Channel.
Lu Yi naturally would not say it was because he could obtain task rewards. He merely smiled, “The threat of the Jiuyou Demons is growing ever greater. Perhaps it won’t be long before the reawakened Jiuyou Demons will possess enough strength to breach the Jiuyou Channel. By then, I fear the situation will be even worse. My Immortal Array can only hold them off for a while, but after all, it treats the symptoms, not the cause. If we can get the Rashamon Clan’s powerhouses to recuperate now, maybe after some time, they can also become a formidable force against the Jiuyou Demons.”
Hearing this, Yu Xin and the others nodded thoughtfully.
“Yi’er is right, perhaps this approach is even better,” Yu Xin nodded, sighing softly, “Who knows how much longer we can maintain such peaceful days.”
Others felt a heavy solemnity in their hearts as well.
Having visited the Rashamon Clan and witnessed the anomaly of the Jiuyou Demons, they realized that it may not be long before the Jiuyou disaster of Ancient Times would reemerge.
…
Upon returning to the Sky Falling Star Domain, everyone didn’t go back to their respective places but first took Lu Yi to various Jiuyou Battlefields in the Star Domain. Just like with the Rashamon Clan’s battlefield, they slaughtered all the Jiuyou Demons and Lu Yi used the Tao Immortal Array to seal the Jiuyou Channels.
Seeing that Lu Yi could accomplish such a feat, the Star Realm Army fighters on duty at the Jiuyou Battlefield, as well as the Yu Family’s top fighters, almost bulged their eyes in disbelief.
The ease with which he sealed the Jiuyou Channels made their many years of grueling defense of the Jiuyou Battlefields seem tragically unnecessary.
The procedure this time started from the lower-level Jiuyou Battlefields to the higher-level ones.
The Zhen’an Battlefield, Ningyin Battlefield, Luoyuan Battlefield, and others were sealed one by one using Lu Yi’s Tao Immortal Array. The Jiuyou Qi inside thinned, becoming almost identical to the external universe, and not a single Jiuyou Demon was left unslain.
For the Star Realm Army and various powerhouses who had defended these Jiuyou Battlefields for eons, there came a moment of bewildering liberation.
The sudden relief from years of duty and pressure made them feel both exhilarated and a bit lost.
But overall, of course, it was great news, as the number of Cultivators who would die to the Jiuyou Demons in the future would likely decrease significantly.
At last, Lu Yi and Yu Xin reached the strongest Jiuyou Battlefield in the Sky Falling Star Domain, the Mingyuan Battlefield.
Within it, there even existed Jiuyou Demons at the level of Immortal Venerables.
For this reason, as many as five Immortal Venerables from the Yu Family guarded this place year-round, unable to leave.
As Lu Yi began the task of eliminating the Jiuyou Demons and sealing the Jiuyou Channel, the stationed Immortal Venerables of the Yu Family were naturally well aware, and even Yu Cheng, who had just grasped the Origin Power, came to the site.
When Lu Yi and the others entered the Jiuyou Battlefield, all the mighties within were waiting for Lu Yi.
“Hahaha, Yi’er, I didn’t expect you to present such an immense surprise to me,” Yu Cheng laughed heartily, moving forward to pat Lu Yi vigorously on the shoulder, his expression quite excited.
Beside Yu Cheng, a handsome man with white hair chuckled, “With Yi’er in our Tianluo Star Domain, we are fortunate.”
Beside Yu Cheng, besides the white-haired handsome man, there were four other men and women, including a gray-haired elder and a beautiful young lady, among others.
They all wore gentle and friendly smiles, their eyes on Lu Yi full of kindness.
Yu Cheng pointed at them and introduced, “These are my Yu Family’s Immortal Venerables, Yu Xuanyi, Yu Boyun, Yu Yunqing, Yu Yuanyou, Yu Ying.”
