Chapter 986: The Strange Team

Life Soul Jade?

Qin Yiyao's heart tightened.

This item is a rare treasure in the immortal civilization. As long as a wisp of soul is injected into it, this jade can create a powerful and solid destiny connection. Once bound together, one can know the person's situation through the life soul jade.

Moreover, the destiny connection within this Soul Jade can also serve as a guide to find that person's location.

If in danger, crushing the Life Soul Jade can create a period of protection for the other party, enough to temporarily save their life.

To put it simply, the lower-dimensional source realm also has similar things like soul-sensing lamps, only these are more advanced, more functional, and not something ordinary people can afford. However...

The Soul Jade is ultimately not some heaven-defying treasure.

There are times when it doesn't work.

When faced with a higher level and a more powerful force of nature, this Life Soul Jade becomes a useless treasure.

For example, deities...

Or a secret location.

"The head of the department's apprentice?"

"Didn't you say that she had already been exiled for the crime of disrespecting the gods and had been thrown into the Epoch Cemetery?"

Qin Yiyao still remembered that name.

Yue Ru.

I've heard it so many times. Ever since she joined the Jade Emperor Palace's Purple Sun Department, Ling Xuzi has always intended to take her as his disciple, and he always compares her to Yue Ru when praising her.

You could tell from his tone that Lingxuzi truly admired and loved his only disciple.

Even though Qin Yiyao possessed a treasure later, he never forgot the gems that came before him.

Therefore, Lingxuzi always felt quite regretful and sad whenever he mentioned Yueru. Who could blame him for his only disciple's inexplicable lapse of judgment? She had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, yet she chose to disrespect the gods.

"Yes, I've mentioned her to you more than once."

"Her plight has always been a source of indignation for me, a regret I can never express..."

Lingxuzi was quite moved.

to be frank.

To this day, he still finds the matter quite strange and difficult to explain.

Because the so-called crime of "disrespecting the gods" is basically a joke. Apart from those rebels who mingled with the great enemy of the era, it's not that anyone actually disrespected the gods. After all, power is supreme, and the gods are indeed that strong. Those who can come to the myriad realms are not fools or idiots; they wouldn't be so stupid as to question a power they cannot defeat.

But this label of "disrespecting the gods" is very useful.

Moreover, it's not something you can just arbitrarily pin on someone else's name; using it well is what makes it a brilliant move.

The gods of an era usually don't care if some insignificant ant dares to question them. Gods have their pride and won't lower themselves to that level, unless they are truly offended by something reckless and ignorant.

Ke Yueru seemed to be just unlucky.

She didn't actually offend the "Primordial Dao Ancestor," but said some things that everyone agreed with, such as "Gods are made by the strong, and one day, I might become a god too..."

That's correct.

Normally, no one would make a fuss about such a statement.

But it was precisely these words of hers that actually drew out the true form of the "Primordial Dao Ancestor"!

Its words were divine pronouncements, and Yuezi's sin of disrespecting the gods was firmly locked in, with no possibility of being cleansed.

It was also it that personally announced that Yuezi would be exiled to the Epoch Cemetery, rather than being killed on the spot.

Ling Xuzi didn't know why things were like this. He only knew that he couldn't save his disciple. Even the Eternal Divine Court, which was responsible for carrying out the will of the gods, wouldn't give Ling Xuzi the chance to see Yuezi one last time...

"Then what about this Soul Jade?"

Qin Yiyao stared at the Soul Jade, which shone dimly yet was impossible to ignore.

"This is Yue Ru's life essence jade, which has a 'fate connection' with her existence."

Ling Xuzi's expression was grave: "After she was sent to the Epoch Graveyard, this Soul Jade completely lost its luster, and not a trace of its aura could be detected." The Soul Jade was not ineffective.

It was because Yuezi entered the Epoch Cemetery, a place that was too mysterious. The only thing known was that it was the burial ground of gods and extremely dangerous!

Moreover, it is impossible to discover the information inside from the outside in any way!

It's impossible, not even a tiny bit.

There are eight secret locations in the myriad realms, and the Epoch Cemetery ranks first, truly deserving of its reputation.

But now, the Soul Jade is glowing?

"Chief, do you mean Yue Ru escaped from the Epoch Graveyard?"

Qin Yiyao understood his implication perfectly, but even she couldn't help but frown; it sounded too unbelievable.

She was not trying to show off her power.

Escaping the Epoch Graveyard is not impossible, but it is extremely difficult. Otherwise, why hasn't her master been able to get out yet?

Qin Yiyao had great confidence in Gu Heng, but now, more than a decade later, she had already built up her own power base, yet her master was still nowhere to be seen.

She firmly believed that her master would not die, and she was certain that one day she would enter the Epoch Cemetery to find him, but that would only be after she had made all the necessary preparations.

Yue Ru... then the hope is even slimmer.

Many capable and powerful individuals were exiled to the Epoch Graveyard, and the vast majority of them were certainly much stronger than Yue Ru, but none of them could escape. How could Yue Ru do that?

"This item is irrefutable evidence!"

"She must have come out of the Epoch Cemetery, but I have no idea how she did it."

Ling Xuzi looked at Qin Yiyao, his tone resolute.

However, the ripples emanating from the jade made her raise an eyebrow. Although she had never used a Life Soul Jade before, the fluctuations in its aura were unmistakable; Qin Yiyao was certain that it was a concrete manifestation of "life force" gathering within it.

The scent was very faint.

If Qin Yiyao hadn't been so sensitive to auras, she wouldn't have noticed anything different about it.

"Not only that."

Ling Xuzi sighed, "The person who just came to visit me is an old friend from a martial arts civilization."

"He told me that recently there has been a rather strange team of about two hundred people. They are extremely secretive and rely entirely on secret treasures and cultivation to travel across the starry sea. Moreover, they only travel to dangerous places and never approach the territory of any civilization."

"This team seems to contain cultivators from various civilizations, and there are at least five leaders... all of them are at the Concept Realm!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yiyao seemed to fall into deep thought.

Five conceptual realm giants led the team, which included cultivators from various civilizations.

That's really strange.

Those who cultivate at the conceptual level are the absolute pillars of every civilization.

The Jade Emperor Palace is the strongest force in the Purple Heaven, and its master is even granted the title of Lord of the Purple Heaven. However, there are only six conceptual realm experts in the entire Jade Emperor Palace.

This team has five members, making them a formidable force not to be underestimated!

But they traveled cautiously, keeping a low profile, afraid of making too much noise and being discovered...

If they're not going to roam freely across the sea of ​​stars, what are they afraid of?
