Chapter 740 - 348 Anomalies of Red Star_2
These cultivators were all wildly overjoyed, clearly having made immense gains.
And Ling Luo Peak Master and others soon came to one after another, and the group returned home.
Liu Ningshuang and her three companions flew into the courtyard with Ling Luo Peak Master, their expressions filled with surprise and delight.
“Sister, how did it go? Did you find any treasures?”
Lu Yi saw Liu Ningshuang and her party, asking with a light laugh.
Liu Ningshuang replied with a shallow smile, “We made enormous gains.”
“Heh heh, after all, with a Tao Tide of such scale, how could there be no gains?” Donggong Ming Yue was particularly proud, “But we haven’t fully digested our gains yet, we will probably need to close ourselves for cultivation for a long time once we get back.”
Jian Ruyu and Yun Xi both nodded slightly.
Looking at Lu Yi, Ling Luo Peak Master said, “Have you been waiting for us for a long time?”
“Not too long, just a few years.”
For those who had become Immortals, indeed a few years was merely the blink of an eye.
However, during these years, Lu Yi had mastered several Golden Immortal Skills and had gained insights into some Immortal Scriptures; one could say his time was spent very fruitfully.
“Shall we prepare to head back?” asked Ling Luo Peak Master.
Lu Yi smiled and said, “Yes, indeed it’s time to return.”
“I’ll go check on big brother and Yu Yuanwu, and call them over.” Yu Lingluo nodded slightly and walked out of the courtyard.
Soon after, Ling Luo Peak Master came flying over with Yu Hanguang and Yu Yuanwu.
Flying with them were Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch.
“Yi’er, I heard you’re going back?” Yu Xin said with a light smile.
Lu Yi nodded, “Yes, I have been away from Tianming for some time now, and I’m somewhat worried.”
Yu Xin nodded slightly, “If that’s the case, then go ahead. The old ancestor is still in seclusion, I’m afraid he can’t come to send you off.”
“You’re too polite, Uncle Yu. Perhaps when the old ancestor leaves seclusion, he might make a breakthrough to Immortal King,” Lu Yi said with a grin.
In fact, based on the situation with Yu Cheng that Lu Yi had seen a few days ago, the probability of a breakthrough after this period of seclusion was indeed not small.
Lu Yi was also quite expectant.
Afterward, Lu Yi and several others boarded the Red Sun Boat under the watchful eyes of Yu Xin and the Yu Family Matriarch, leaving Jade Star.
…
After returning to Tianming, Lu Yi announced that he would be closing himself for cultivation for a while.
He deduced the layout of the Great Array and, having set the Formation in place, began to absorb the Heart of Chaos.
It was a crystal composed entirely of Chaos Qi, much more powerful than any Chaos Treasure Lu Yi had previously obtained.
As Lu Yi absorbed it, the Heart of Chaos turned into strands of Chaos Qi, integrating into his body.
This Chaos Qi tempered Lu Yi’s Immortal Body, causing it to surge in strength once more as Chaos Tao Patterns integrated into every region within Lu Yi’s body.
Most of the Chaos Qi merged into Lu Yi’s Immortal Body, while the remaining streams were controlled by him to enter his Inner World, continuously shaping it.
With the absorption of one Heart of Chaos after another, Lu Yi’s aura became deeper and more condensed. When ten Hearts of Chaos were completely absorbed, Lu Yi slowly opened his eyes, which swirled with strands of Chaos Qi, seemingly able to peer through all things in the world.
He exhaled a breath of turbid air and smiled slightly.
The Heart of Chaos was indeed a Chaos Treasure; the progress was tremendous.
With his current strength, he could now face Immortal Monarchs with ease, and using his trump cards, he should be able to fight even those in the Immortal Monarch Realm, right?
Lu Yi was in a very joyful mood.
He left the Cave Mansion, played with Little Star for a while, and then decided to find his sister and others to celebrate and test the strength of his physical body now.
Just then, a blaze of firelight appeared from afar, coming to the outside of the Cave Mansion, and transformed into a figure.
It was the princess of the Red Clan whom Lu Yi had previously saved, Red Butterfly.
When Red Butterfly first started, she was only in the Mahayana Realm, but she had been cultivating in the White Cloud Immortal Sect over the years. She had excellent innate talent for cultivation, frequently heard Lu Yi discussing the Tao, and learned powerful Immortal Scriptures. Her cultivation base had now become much stronger than before, reaching the True Immortal Realm.
Even Jiang Fan and others could not compare to such a pace of cultivation.
“My lord.”
Red Butterfly respectfully greeted Lu Yi as soon as she saw him outside the Cave Mansion.
Lu Yi glanced at Red Butterfly and asked with a light smile, “What’s the matter? You seem restless, is there something going on?”
“Yes, Master, my father has sent news that an anomaly has occurred at our Ancestor Star,” Red Butterfly began.
Lu Yi was taken aback and raised an eyebrow.
He had a very strong impression of the Red Clan’s Ancestor Star, Red Star.
After all, every member of the Red Clan was a genius of the Fire Element, the weakest among them possessed an Innate Fire Spirit Body, and Red Butterfly back in the day even had the talent of an Immortal Body.
If their Cultivation Method hadn’t been so weak, with their talents, they could’ve given birth to many Immortals in a short time, and even powerful beings such as Golden Immortals or stronger.
Moreover, when Lu Yi had visited the Red Clan’s Ancestor Hall on the Red Star, he always felt something was off, but he couldn’t pinpoint the anomaly, nor could he detect anything peculiar.
Years had passed since then, and Lu Yi hadn’t paid much attention to this matter. To his surprise, Red Butterfly was now reporting an anomaly at the Red Clan’s homeland.
Over the years, although Red Butterfly had always been cultivating and developing at Tianming, because the Red Clan followed Lu Yi, they often sent their geniuses to train at Tianming. At the same time, those of the Red Clan with completed training would return to the Ancestor Star.
There was constant exchange between the two planets.
It’s just because the region where Red Star was located was desolate, travel was not very convenient, hence the exchanges weren’t too frequent.
Lu Yi frowned as he looked at Red Butterfly and asked, “Did he mention what kind of anomaly?”
“Yes, my father mentioned that inside the Ancestor Hall, there seems to be a spatial distortion in a certain area, as if there is a Small World there, and that Small World seems to be slowly opening up,” Red Butterfly explained, nodding.
Lu Yi was startled. “The area of your Ancestor Hall?”
According to Lu Yi’s previous understanding of the Red Clan, the ancestors of the Red Clan had been born in and never left the area where the Ancestor Hall was located.
The Red Clan should have never discovered any other space in that area.
Unexpectedly, it was starting to appear bit by bit at this time.
Lu Yi fell into deep thought. The anomaly he sensed from the Red Clan’s Ancestor Hall before, could it be related to that small space?
Lu Yi had no clue.
“Yes, Master, my father is somewhat worried. He doesn’t know what that space actually contains, so he notified me, hoping I could return to handle it,” Red Butterfly affirmed with a nod.
She looked at Lu Yi somewhat anxiously, “Master, may I go back for a while?”
Lu Yi came back to his senses and replied with a light laugh, “Of course, there’s no problem at all.”
Red Butterfly immediately sighed in relief and then smiled, “Thank you, Master!”
Red Butterfly held profound respect for Lu Yi, after all, it was he who had initially saved her and her people when they were captured and later brought them back to the Ancestor Star, offering protection to their world.
Now, Red Butterfly often traveled to the Commercial Planets and was fully aware of the darkness in the universe; there were too many interstellar pirates in the sea of stars.
With their original strength, if they had encountered other interstellar pirates, they would have faced the same fate of enslavement.
But Lu Yi changed the fate of their clan.
If Lu Yi was unwilling to let her go back, Red Butterfly truly didn’t know what to do.
Fortunately, the Master was as understanding as always.
Red Butterfly was immensely grateful in her heart.
At that moment, Lu Yi’s voice rang out, “I am also quite curious about that Small World. I’ll go with you.”
Red Butterfly was taken aback, not quite processing his words, and looked at Lu Yi.
“You wish to go with me, Master?” Red Butterfly asked in astonishment.
Lu Yi nodded and said with a light smile, “What? You don’t want me to?”
Red Butterfly quickly shook her head, “Of course not, I would be more than happy if the Master would accompany me!”
After all, Red Butterfly was well aware of the Master’s strength; if there really was a serious problem that she couldn’t handle, the Master could certainly resolve it!
Red Butterfly was utterly convinced of Lu Yi’s abilities.
“As long as it’s all right with you, when shall we depart?” Lu Yi inquired.
Red Butterfly replied nervously, “The sooner, the better. I am a bit worried…”
Lu Yi nodded, understanding, “Okay, I’ll go call my Senior Sister and the others, and then we’ll set off.”
