My Immortal Cultivation Game Life
Chapter 816 - 386 The Strongest Support_2

"You're just lucky. If it had been my turn to rest, I would have been the one understanding the Origin Power," said Yu Cheng.

"..."

Facing the accusations of the many ancestors of the Yu Family, Yu Cheng remained completely unconcerned, laughing merrily, "Destiny itself is part of strength. Haven't all of you, who have cultivated to the Immortal Venerable Realm, encountered fortuitous opportunities? Can't you understand such a simple thing?"

The Yu Family ancestors' faces turned dark with anger.

Watching the noisy Yu Family ancestors, Lu Yi merely smiled. He hadn't expected that these venerable immortals of the Yu Family would show such a side.

Indeed, no one respected the other.

Amidst the commotion, everyone returned to their base in the Jiuyou Battlefield. After a discussion, it was decided that Yu Cheng would stay at the base, coordinating with a small number of the Star Realm Army and Immortal Monarch powerhouses.

After all, although the Jiuyou Battlefield had been mostly cleared, and there were not many Jiuyou Demons left—even Immortal Venerable level Jiuyou Demons were non-existent.

But even so, necessary precautions still needed to be maintained. If the seal of the Jiuyou Channel were to suddenly fail, the situation could rapidly deteriorate without anyone to watch over it.

Meanwhile, the other ancestors of the Yu Family returned to Jade Star to engage in secluded cultivation.

Naturally, Lu Yi also said goodbye to the likes of Yu Xin and headed back to the Tianming Star System.

......

No sooner had he returned to the White Cloud Immortal Sect and arrived at Ling Luo Peak, than Lu Yi noticed the presence of Yu Lingluo, Liu Ningshuang, and others outside his Cave Mansion.

Raising an eyebrow, Lu Yi went to the entrance of the Cave Mansion to see that all of them were there.

Seeing Lu Yi return, Liu Ningshuang and the others looked at him with eyes filled with silent reproach, making Lu Yi feel somewhat embarrassed.

Lu Yi chuckled awkwardly, "What's the matter?"

"Junior brother, why didn't you take us with you to deal with the Jiuyou Demons?"

"Exactly, exactly! Senior brother, we could have helped you too!" Donggong Ming Yue complained dissatisfiedly.

Even the usually gentle Yun Xi looked at Lu Yi with some anger.

Lu Yi cleared his throat, feeling speechless inside, "Who said I went to deal with Jiuyou Demons?"

Ling Luo Peak Master looked at Lu Yi with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "My elder brother has already sent the message before you returned."

Yu Hanguang had stayed on Jade Star to deal with the changes in the Jiuyou Battlefield and did not return with Lu Yi; therefore, Lu Yi came back alone.

Hearing Ling Luo Peak Master's words, Lu Yi felt a headache, internally complaining about that guy's decision to tell their Master.

He had originally thought that although he had been a bit busy, it had only been a few years in reality, the equivalent of just one seclusion. Even if he went back, probably no one would have noticed his absence.

He hadn't expected a traitor in their midst.

Next time he saw that guy, he would see how to deal with him!

Lu Yi cleared his throat once more, offering a light laugh, "With my current strength, I can easily deal with Jiuyou Demons of Immortal Venerable level, so I thought I wouldn't disturb your cultivation."

Jian Ruyu crossed her arms, dissatisfied, "So the abnormal junior brother thinks he's too strong and doesn't need us anymore, is that it?"

"Where did that come from?" Lu Yi grinned, coaxing them, "Sister Ruyu, you all are my strongest trump card. How could I possibly not need you? Speaking of which, I just thought of something. There might be a large-scale attack from the Jiuyou Demons before long, and we may even encounter Jiuyou Demons of Immortal King or even Immortal Emperor level. So Sister Ruyu, you guys need to diligently cultivate. I hope you can lend me a hand when the time comes."

His words indeed shifted the focus of Liu Ningshuang and the others.

Their expressions changed, somewhat astonished, "Immortal King or even Immortal Emperor level Jiuyou Demons?! How is that possible? Are there really Jiuyou Demons that powerful?"

Even Ling Luo Peak Master next to them looked utterly astonished, her pretty face showing a hint of stupefaction.

Witnessing their reaction, Lu Yi understood that Yu Hanguang probably hadn't explained the situation clearly to their Master.

He felt it was indeed necessary to talk with his senior sisters about this matter.

After all, the strength boost from the Tao Yin Yang Secret Skill was incredibly massive. Especially as his senior sisters grew stronger, the amplification would only increase more and more.

They would become a significant support for Lu Yi when dealing with the resurrected powerhouses among the Jiuyou Demons.

If, before the powerful Jiuyou Demons woke up and invaded, Sister Ling Luo and the others could reach the Immortal Venerable Realm, then even if Lu Yi were only at the Immortal King Realm, he had confidence that, with the Yin Yang Tao Seal Secret Skill and the Heavenly Heart Technique combined with his various strengths, he would be able to confront the Immortal Emperor Level elites among the Jiuyou Demons, perhaps even those at the Jiuyou Demon God Level.

Lu Yi mentioned this matter also in hopes that Sister Ling Luo and the others would seriously cultivate and quickly increase their strengths.

Of course, he would naturally provide all the best resources.

With this in mind, Lu Yi recounted the Jiuyou Evil Demon Venerable he encountered on the Rashamon Star Domain Jiuyou Battlefield and later on the Mingyuan Battlefield, as well as the words spoken by that Jiuyou Evil Demon Venerable and his own speculations.

After listening, Liu Ningshuang and the others' expressions changed repeatedly, grave and thoughtful.

"The Jiuyou Demons are so powerful... Brother Lu Yi's breakthrough actually hastened their awakening..." Liu Ningshuang murmured with a serious look on her face.

She wouldn't blame Lu Yi for the implications of his breakthrough, as for Liu Ningshuang, she naturally stood unconditionally by Lu Yi's side.

It was just that the awakened Jiuyou Demons would likely pose a significant threat to their universe in the future.

"How long will it take for those powerful Jiuyou Demons to fully recover and invade our universe?" Yun Xi asked slowly.

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be too long," guessed Lu Yi, based on the words of the Jiuyou Evil Demon Venerable from the Mingyuan Battlefield. The specific time definitely wouldn't surpass the billions of years from the Ancient Times to the present, after all, that was an immense span of time.

However… once the Immortal Emperor Level beings woke up, recovering their full strength wouldn't happen overnight, right?

Lu Yi speculated that it would take at least thousands, if not tens of thousands of years, or possibly even longer.

It was for this reason that Lu Yi wasn't overly desperate.

Given his current rate of progress, there was still hope that he might attain the strength to resist the Jiuyou Demons' invasion before it occurred.

Hearing Lu Yi's words, Liu Ningshuang and the others looked at each other, all with very serious expressions.

"I understand. I will go into full retreat and cultivate with all my might," Liu Ningshuang nodded, her expression grave.

Jian Ruyu also nodded, her lips curling into a smile, "I don't want to be a burden to my freakish junior brother. When the time comes, Sister will be the strongest support for you."

Although they heard such heavy news, Jian Ruyu's nature was always straightforward, and she could still manage to smile.

In her opinion, if they really couldn't hold on, then they would just die. Dying together with her freakish junior brother wouldn't be too bad, would it?

Donggong Ming Yue, with some baby fat on her cute face, spoke seriously, "Sister Ruyu is right. When brother Lu Yi needs me, I will definitely do my best."

Yun Xi looked at Lu Yi and said, "Lu Yi, we need to frequently practice Dual Cultivation. That's the fastest way to improve our cultivation."

"????"

The originally serious atmosphere was completely disrupted by Yun Xi's words, leaving Liu Ningshuang and the others with slightly stiff faces, looking rather embarrassed.

If it were just the few of them, it might have been okay, but their Master was there too.

Ling Luo Peak Master, also immersed in the shocking news brought by Lu Yi, twitched her mouth at Yun Xi's words, her face a bit stiff.

However, she pretended not to hear it and looked at Lu Yi, "Brat, all the other Jiuyou Channels in different regions have been sealed, but there's still one in Tianming."

On hearing this, Lu Yi suddenly remembered the Jiuyou Channel that had appeared in the sea area during the Sea Clan turmoil.

The Jiuyou Channel hadn't been fully opened back then, and it was blocked by the Yu Family's Great Array, which prevented the leakage of Jiuyou Qi and protected the Tianming Star System.

Since not much time had passed, the Jiuyou Channel hadn't completely opened yet, and that was why Lu Yi had forgotten about it all this time.

Now that he could use Taoist Energy to create a Tao Immortal Array, he could seal that not yet fully open Jiuyou Channel even better.

Even if the Jiuyou Channel truly opened eventually, with the Immortal Array's seal, it should be possible to prevent Tianming Star from being destroyed.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi felt somewhat excited.

Perhaps, while the Jiuyou Channel wasn't fully open yet, he might have the chance to completely close it?

Lu Yi nodded and said, "Master's words have reminded me. I plan to take a look at the sea area."

Ling Luo Peak Master nodded, "I'll go with you. Grandma Yuanling is still guarding that channel."

Lu Yi nodded slightly, "There's no time to delay, let's set off now!"
