Chapter 726: I Stand Here Until the Roar of Magic Sounds!
Witnessing a cultivator complete their tribulation, Liu Yu returned to the loft to cultivate, while Zhuo Mengzhen went out to handle matters at the Jade Alchemy Hall, planning to sell at a suitable price.
However, just two days later, his premonition came true.
Major forces such as the Qian Court Holy Land coincidentally increased their troops towards the Purple Mist Mountain Range, showing a strong tendency to encroach upon this Loose Cultivator Holy Land.
From all directions surrounding the Purple Mist Mountain, groups of high-level spiritual ships occasionally appeared.
They continuously flew around this spiritual mountain, openly monitoring the movements within.
In an instant, the atmosphere in this Loose Cultivator Holy Land turned tense, and the previously peaceful and serene vibe vanished without a trace.
Feeling the storm approaching, with the Purple Mist Mountain set to be the center of the storm, many loose cultivators subconsciously chose to protect themselves and began selling their properties to leave the area.
In just a few days, the number of cultivators in the Purple Mist Mountain saw a cliff-like drop, and the bustling scenes of people coming and going were nowhere to be found.
The various spiritual mountains fell silent, occasional flashes of escape lights were the only sign of activity.
As for the loose cultivators intending to leave, the Qian Court Holy Land showed a strange attitude, with no intention of stopping them, instead generously allowing them to pass through.
After all, there were too many loose cultivators; killing them all was impossible. As long as they flattened this Loose Cultivator Holy Land, it would greatly undermine the confidence of the various loose cultivator organizations.
Once the news spread, the past threats would disappear without a trace.
Loose cultivators were inherently like loose sand, and at this moment, most cultivators naturally wouldn’t entertain the thought of sharing their fate with the Purple Mist Mountain.
Seeing that the Qian Court Holy Land was not obstructing them, they hurriedly packed their things to flee.
The reason they had come to this place was simply due to its good cultivation environment. It would be impossible to say that they had no feelings for it, but it was far from enough to risk their lives.
Only the various loose cultivator organizations, standing in opposition to the Qian Court Holy Land, had no retreat and were forced to stay.
After all, with the Qian Court Holy Land surrounding the Purple Mist Mountain, going out now would only lead to dead ends; it was better to stay and take a gamble.
With the "Nine Dragons Sovereign" present, who knows, maybe they could turn danger into safety?
…
A few days later, at the cave dwelling on Red Cloud Mountain.
In a small pavilion, Liu Yu sat alone, a steaming cup of spiritual tea had already been brewed on the table as if waiting for someone.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to leave, but the Qian Court Holy Land's actions were too swift.
Before he could even set out, the Purple Mist Mountain had already been surrounded, so he had no choice but to stay.
However, according to his observations over the past few days, the Qian Court Holy Land seemed to have no intention of strictly inspecting those loose cultivators leaving, and it appeared very easy to pass through undetected.
After observing for a few days, Liu Yu roughly understood the intentions of the Qian Court Holy Land. He decided to leave tomorrow, disregarding the Jade Alchemy Hall business.
Today, he simply intended to bid farewell to Guo Poyun.
After all, Guo was the most familiar cultivator he had met since arriving in the Central Domain, and their relationship had always been good.
It seemed inappropriate to leave without saying a word.
Besides, after this incident, there was no certainty that the Purple Scarf Army would be annihilated, and Guo Poyun's cultivation was also at the golden core pinnacle, making him worth befriending.
