Ye Yun was unaware of the decisions made by the Ghost Tribe, nor did he have the leisure to concern himself with them. This was because Wang Chen had returned, bringing with him news that profoundly shocked Ye Yun.
"Boss, when we were exploring the Divine Realm, we broke through a forbidden area on the mountainside of the Divine Clan's sacred mountain. At the deepest part of the forbidden area, we discovered eight miniature teleportation arrays," Wang Chen declared with excitement to Ye Yun in the Lord's Mansion of Fengle City, accompanied by Zhou Ningdong and others.
"Eight teleportation arrays? What kind of forbidden area is this? Did you try to enter?" Ye Yun was somewhat bewildered by Wang Chen's words.
What was the Divine Realm? It was the foremost among the ten great divine cities in the Tenth Universe, spanning an area of millions of kilometers. It seemed unnecessary to set up eight teleportation arrays in a single location.
"I stood on one to try, but we didn't have enough Divine Stones," Wang Chen said, forcing a laugh of embarrassment as he looked at Ye Yun.
Not enough Divine Stones?
Damn it. While their strength wasn't much in his eyes, they were earning Divine Stones in the Divine Realm. If the cost of a single teleportation was insufficient, it could only mean that the destinations of these eight teleportation arrays were no ordinary places.
"Were there any prompts about where they teleported to?"
"There was one that could teleport to other divine cities. The other seven teleportation arrays each could only teleport to one point, like the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, the Medicine Garden, and so on. One of them, when activated, prompted a teleportation destination of the Divine Realm's Sacred Spring Kiln. The teleportation cost was also the highest, requiring a staggering five hundred thousand Divine Stones!"
Wang Chen spoke, while Zhou Ningdong and the others chimed in.
"Boss, you have no idea. To ascend this sacred mountain, we fought for over ten days. When I returned, I had killed over fifty thousand native Divine Clan inhabitants," Xie Yifeng said with pride, looking at Mu Ziming.
He had been extremely envious of Mu Ziming's performance in the previous city defense battle. Now, having earned hundreds of thousands of Divine Stones in just over ten days in the Divine Realm, his strength had surpassed Mu Ziming's.
Facing Xie Yifeng's challenging gaze, Mu Ziming expressed disdain. During this period, Fengle City had repelled three waves of millions-strong armies from the nine great divine cities. The number of enemies he had personally slain exceeded nine million, and the total amount of various Sacred Stones collected surpassed fifty million. Hundreds of thousands of Divine Stones were of no concern to him.
"Speaking of which, Boss, I also find this sacred mountain very strange. From the foot of the mountain, there were already a hundred thousand troops, and the strength of each soldier far surpassed the most elite warriors in the cities. Most terrifyingly, for every thousand meters of altitude gained, there were two hundred thousand troops stationed, with strength even more formidable than the level below."
"I specifically investigated this sacred mountain. Its total height is nine thousand one hundred meters. If the strength increases layer by layer according to this pattern, the strength at the very top is likely beyond our imagination. With our current strength, we could only reach the fourth level at most."
Zhou Ningdong interjected at this point. Having a military background, his observations were more meticulous. If this were not in the game, he would probably already be sketching a blueprint of the sacred mountain, a habit ingrained from his military service.
The fourth level involved killing eight hundred thousand enemies, plus the hundred thousand guards in the secret realm, totaling nine hundred thousand troops. This alone consumed a full ten days!
"Alright, I understand. Your priority now is to accelerate your return to Blue Star. The fusion of star domains is imminent; don't let any accidents happen to Blue Star."
The Human Race star domain had only Blue Star remaining as a habitable planet for humans. If Blue Star were to suffer an accident, all the tens of billions of people on Blue Star would perish, and by then, the Human Race would likely be on the verge of extinction.
Regarding what Zhou Ningdong and the others had said, Ye Yun could make some guesses. After all, the sacred mountain was the birthplace of the native Divine Clan, and its defenses would certainly be extremely strict.
Compared to the secrets of the sacred mountain, Ye Yun was more interested in the eight teleportation arrays, as they could teleport to eight other divine cities. Once he gained control of the sacred mountain, it would mean an inexhaustible supply of Sacred Stones, and the natives of the nine great divine cities would become his livestock! The nine great divine cities would also become excellent training grounds for the Dragon Palace members!
After the dozen or so people departed, Ye Yun paid a visit to the New Mortal Continent, and also to the Bitter Sea Dragon Palace. After collecting all the resources, he summoned Yue Di.
"Yue Di, how many people do you seven tribes have above the Main God realm?"
"Replying to my master, during our migration, we counted a total of one thousand nine hundred and thirty tribesmen in the Main God realm, and twenty-seven ancestors in the Monarch realm," Yue Di answered Ye Yun's question almost without hesitation.
Twenty-seven Monarch realm experts...
As expected of individuals from a high-level world.
Ye Yun felt a sense of helplessness upon hearing Yue Di's words.
The Divine Clan star domain only had three Monarch realm experts. He hadn't expected that the Qi Clan, despite being pursued all the way, would still have twenty-seven Monarch realm powerhouses, and nearly two thousand Main God realm experts. This sight made Ye Yun incredibly envious.
"Tell Yue Xia that once your seven tribes reach the Ninth and Tenth Domain Gates, everyone must guard the domain gates diligently. All Main God realm individuals are to enter the Human Race star domain and help me defend Blue Star," Ye Yun said sternly to Yue Di.
"Yes, Master."
Ye Yun had not concealed the imminent fusion of the Human Race star domain and the Ghost Tribe star domain from him, so he was somewhat aware of the situation. However, he was unaware that Blue Star faced more than just this one peril.
With the addition of twenty-seven Monarch realm experts and nearly two thousand Main God realm experts from the seven tribes, Ye Yun felt more at ease about the safety of Blue Star. Looking at the billions of Spirit Stones newly acquired, his mood was exceptionally good.
After nearly two months of accumulation, Ye Yun's personal hoard of various Divine Stones, Sacred Stones, and Spirit Stones had reached a terrifying level. Ye Yun even suspected that if all of these were converted into attribute points, his cultivation might directly skip the Mid-Extreme and High-Extreme realms to reach the Perfection of the Extreme realm, possibly even breaking through the limits of the Extreme realm to become the first Great Emperor in tens of millions of years across the myriad universes.
