Chapter 270 Return to the Upper Realm

In the upper realm, the situation has been turbulent and unpredictable over the past few months. After Ye Xiu wiped out the strongest people in the Immortal Palace, the Demon Dragon Gate and the Sword Valley, those remaining immortals seemed to have disappeared from this world.

After Ye Xiu ordered several major imperial clans to go on the expedition, too many things happened. Some sects that had grievances against those forces also took advantage of the situation and joined in the reckoning.

Over the years, these forces, with the support of the remnant immortals, have committed too many murders.

In the past, no one dared to say anything, but now, despite Ye Xiu’s powerful move, several major sects immediately fell into unprecedented chaos.

As for other major sects, ever since Ye Xiu issued the conscription order, some of them had no choice but to send out some people to fill the numbers.

Some are independent cultivators who want to go to the borderland to try their luck. The opportunities and cultivation resources they can get in the Three Thousand States are limited, so they decide to give it a try.

Over the past few months, people have arrived in Xianlingzhou one after another, waiting to be summoned by Ye Xiu.

Outside the former immortal palace, there were human figures all over the mountains and plains. At a rough glance, there were about tens of thousands of people, almost all of whom were creatures with ignited divine fire.

In Xianling Province, Ye Xiu brought two figures to the outside of Miro Palace and looked at the bustling crowd below. The girl with double pupils looked at him with complicated eyes.

"These are the tribes that I have recruited, or the monks who want to come here to practice!" Seeing the other party's confusion, Ye Xiu spoke.

Shi Yi on the side also had flickering eyes. Those were the high and mighty gods in the lower world, but they were summoned here by Ye Xiu with just one sentence.

Moreover, from what he said, in addition to those who ignited the sacred fire, true gods and heavenly gods were also recruited. This shocked him greatly.

If he hadn't been naturally calm and composed, he would have panicked a long time ago.

After taking a look at the people outside, Ye Xiu led the two of them into the depths of the Miro Palace, where the Immortal Spring was rooted.

"This is the immortal spring. With it, I believe you will recover soon!"

Ye Xiu said to the girl with double pupils.

“Sure enough…” The girl with double pupils sighed in her heart. As a survivor of the ancient war, she knew where this place was. However, she did not expect that the Immortal Palace was really destroyed by Ye Xiu.

"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist!" The girl with double pupils didn't say anything extra and just thanked him softly.

She believed that Ye Xiu must be a figure from ancient times, or from the beginning of this era, who knew the truth about the Sinful Blood lineage, was on their side, and could not stand the actions of forces such as the Immortal Palace.

But in the past, I was not strong enough to change anything. Now, I have reached the pinnacle, and I can change the world.

“No need to thank me. I hope you can recover to your peak soon and help me take charge here!” Ye Xiu said.

"Of course, but don't ask me to train disciples. I have no feelings for the creatures from the upper realm!" said the girl with double pupils helplessly.

Since he has enjoyed the Immortal Spring, there should be no problem in helping Ye Xiu to maintain order.

"Of course, those who come here from all over the world are not qualified for you to teach them!"

In recent days, many major sects in the Three Thousand States have sent their disciples to the Miluo Palace, and some major sects have even sent gods to the Miluo Palace to serve as elders and deacons.

It has to be said that the leaders of those major sects were quite accurate in their judgment. Ye Xiu did not have much time to teach his disciples, nor could he teach everyone.

Raise Gu!

Ye Xiu had said before that the Miro Palace could train some geniuses and make them stronger so that they could cultivate immortal energy after entering the ancient immortal ruins.

A disciple who is truly worthy of his training must at least cultivate immortal energy, or break the limit in a certain realm. Otherwise, he can only practice the art of military formations, and go to the border to participate in wars in the future, using Qian as cannon fodder.

"You have a good foundation. There are many cultivation books left behind by many people here. While she is in seclusion, you can go and check them out on your own!" Ye Xiu said to Shi Yi. He did not understand the physique of double pupils, so he could only provide him with cultivation resources.

"Thank you, senior!" Shi Yi expressed his sincere gratitude.

After settling the girl with double pupils and Shi Yi, Ye Xiu met with people from several major imperial clans.

"So, now there are already a thousand celestial gods and ten thousand true gods nearby?"

Ye Xiu looked at an old man and said that the old man was a leader sent by the Mu royal family, named Mu Yan.

"Reporting to the lord, that's right!" Mu Yan said.

"The Celestials, the Wars, and other forces, as well as the Jietian Sect and the Bu Tian Sect, neither they nor the Daotong Sects they belong to have sent anyone!"

According to Mu Yan, many major forces in the upper realm and some powerful clans that have existed since ancient times did not obey his call, and some even just sent a few true gods to make up the number.

The strongest people who came to Miro Palace were the sect leaders. Apart from the sects named by Ye Xiu, most of them were independent cultivators, with only dozens of people in total. Some of the major sects and sects had signed an alliance in the ancient times, and would send a group of masters to the borderland every few years.

It is simply impossible for the three thousand states today to gather the hundreds of thousands of gods that Ye Xiu had requested before.

As for figures at the level of cult leaders, that is even more impossible. Apart from some top sects in the upper realm, many figures at the level of cult leaders have gone to the borderland.

Even the royal and imperial clans, the Xia clan and the Ye clan, to which Mu Yan belongs, are the same. Apart from some foundation, their top combat forces are all in the imperial pass at the border.

“Well, since we said at the beginning that we would wait until the ancient immortal ruins were opened before recruiting them, let’s ignore them for the time being. With more than a hundred thousand True Gods, I wonder how many of them can break through to become Heavenly Gods!”

Ye Xiu smiled in silence. He didn't expect that the major sects in the thousands of states in the upper realm would do this to him. Were they worried that they would be sent to be cannon fodder?

However, it was also because of his negligence that top forces like the Butian Sect, the Jietian Sect and the current imperial clan would naturally become the targets of the Emperor's conscription.

Although the strength of the emperors and royal families of today cannot match those of the immortal sects, it is not because they are weak.

The ancestors of the Ye clan, the Mu clan, and the Xia clan were once the group of people closest to the realm of immortals. With such combat power, even the remaining immortals in the Immortal Palace did not dare to provoke them easily.

The only regret is that most of them died when they tried to achieve immortality. Even if they didn’t die, most of them were sleeping or went to serve in the Imperial Pass.

What Ye Xiu knew was that the supreme leader of the imperial family, the Xia clan, had not died, but was fighting at the imperial pass in the borderland.

"What about the other big sects? What do they do? It's impossible that they are all the same as the Butian Sect and the Imperial Clan!" Ye Xiu soon thought, in the Three Thousand States, there are not many people at the level of sect leaders, so forget it.

After all, this is the fact. For some ethnic groups, their strongest people are only the leaders, but the gods-level figures are not so shabby, with only 10,000 people.

"Your Majesty, besides these, there are some other sects that turn a deaf ear to your call!" Mu Yan said.

"Just go and have a look. That's all! Going back and forth is a waste of time. They can't hide behind you anyway!"

Ye Xiu originally wanted to let Mu Yan go for a visit, but when he thought about the vastness of the upper realm, he felt that visiting those major sects one by one would be a waste of time.

Ye Xiu: "By the way, did you bring back the treasures from the Demon Dao Dragon Gate and the Sword Valley?"

Mu Yan: "Return to the Supreme, I brought them all back!"

Ye Xiu: "Okay! In that case, then go pick some talented people with good qualifications and start training them!"

Even though he obtained the treasure houses of several Taoist sects, Ye Xiu could not be happy. These resources were simply not enough to be opened to the heavenly gods and true gods.

The cultivation scriptures of the several major sects are fine, as they can be obtained based on their contributions, but old medicines, divine materials, and treasures are not good enough to satisfy so many people.

"By the way, if there are people with good talents in your tribe, you can bring them here and I will give them some training!"

Finally, Ye Xiu also said to Mu Yan, why would they, the imperial clan, obey his orders? In addition to his own strength, they also wanted to make plans for their own clan.

Having a supreme being personally guiding their practice will definitely benefit their younger generations greatly.

"Sir, the Demonic Dragon Sect, the Sword Valley, the Fire Cloud Cave and other major sects have all been captured. I wonder when you will send them away to punish them!"

Several months passed, and with the strong actions of several major imperial clans, the Demonic Dragon Gate, the Sword Valley and other clans and sects that had framed the descendants of the king in the past were all suppressed.

According to Ye Xiu’s previous request, all the people from their Ma Xu Sect must be sent to the borderland to atone for their sins.

"You all know the requirements for going to the borderland. How many of their major sects can meet the requirements!" Ye Xiu thought for a moment and spoke. Although they are cannon fodder, they cannot be meaningless cannon fodder. They must at least have the combat power of a god.

Mu Yan said, "According to statistics, there are more than twenty leaders and more than three hundred gods captured this time!"

"How is this going?"

Ye Xiu frowned. This was different from what he had imagined.

“Your Majesty, please calm down!” Seeing Ye Xiu’s suspicious look, Mu Yan continued to speak.

It turned out that some people were afraid of being liquidated, so they ran away before the arrival of the several major imperial clans. The upper realm is vast, and even the several major imperial clans would not be able to find them within time.

Moreover, although Ye Xiu killed only a few of the strongest people from those major sects, it does not mean that they have no masters. If the major imperial clans were to pursue them, they might not succeed.

　Big guys, don't keep the books! You won't be able to keep going!
