The few of them als nodded at Li Fei in return.
In a moment, the group of people arrived at the meeting hall of Ancient Origin
City under Hua Mengyou’s lead.
After everyone sat down, Hua Mengyou said with a solemn expression, “Everyone, I believe you all have questions about why we were arranged here. Moreover, there are a total of eight Violet Palace cultivators.
Among them, the six of us have even reached the late-stage Violet Palace.”
When this topic was mentioned, other than Li Fei, everyone’s expressions became serious.
Indeed.
This was something they had been puzzled about before they came.
According to normal practice, when a city was set up with a protective array, there was usually a late-stage Violet Palace cultivator and three to four mid-stage Violet Palace Realm cultivators guarding it.
But this time, there were a total of six late-stage Violet Palace cultivators.
Coupled with the Falling River Taiyi Array, a protective array that was infinitely close to Level 4, even if they encountered a Level 4 Golden Core Demon King, they were not too worried.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others would never believe that there was no special reason why so many combat strengths were placed in this Ancient Origin City. “To tell you the truth…”
Hua Mengyou continued, “The main reason why you and I were arranged here is actually…”
Hua Mengyou slowly took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Underneath this city, we discovered a high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein.” “What? A high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein?”
These words immediately shocked everyone present.
Clearly, they were all aware of the significance of a high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein.
It was not an exaggeration to say that a high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein was enough for six to seven late-stage Golden Core cultivators to cultivate at the same time.
Similarly, it was enough for six to seven demon kings.
If this news were to spread…
Those demon kings who fought to the death for territory and resources would probably go completely crazy and mobilize all their armies to take down Ancient Origin City at all costs.
In an instant, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, and the Bai family members felt a huge pressure.
Bai Mingshan said, “Fellow Daoist Hua and Fellow Daoist Li Fei, may I ask who knows about the existence of the high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein?”
If this news had already been leaked, or if there was a risk of it being leaked, they would consider leaving without hesitation.
Even if the order to guard this city was given by the Jade Water Sword Pavilion, they had no choice but to leave.
Even if they might be wanted or even criticized in the future, they would never risk their lives and the lives of their entire family.
If the demon beasts found out about the high grade Level 4 spiritual vein, without the slightest doubt, it was impossible to defend the Ancient Origin City even if they were reinforced by three Golden Core cultivators.
At this moment, even Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who could be said to be Hua Mengyou’s good friends, were staring at her perfect face and observing the change in her expression.
If they noticed anything wrong, even if they were good friends, they had no choice but part ways with her.
They were the same as Bai Mingshan and the others. They wouldn’t bring their members to their deaths when they knew that death was the only outcome.
Fortunately, Hua Mengyou and Li Fei were very calm from the beginning to the end.
Hua Mengyou smiled and looked at everyone present.
“Don’t worry. So far, other than the few of us here, only the core Supreme
Elders of our sect and the Supreme Elders of the Heavenly Yue Sect know about
it.”
After a pause, Hua Mengyou continued,
“Back then, the ones who discovered the spiritual vein here were Elder Flowing
Fire of my sect and Elder Wen of the Heavenly Yue Sect.
The moment they sensed the existence of the spiritual vein here, they used various methods to conceal it.
After that, they informed their respective sects, asking the other Golden Core elders to come.
Without alerting the demon beasts, many Golden Core cultivators joined forces and completely hid the aura of the high-grade Level 4 spiritual vein.”
“I see.”
After hearing Hua Mengyou’s explanation, Jiang Chengxuan and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
With so many Golden Core cultivators from the two old Golden Core Sects joining forces, the existence of the spiritual vein here should not be easily discovered..
