Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1817 - 1815: Your People?

Lu Ye didn't stay long on Three Worlds Island, only for half a month, but the spirit jade reserve on Three Worlds Island cost nearly two hundred million.

This is also why he doesn't worry much about accounting issues, because whenever he has a need, the warehouse on Three Worlds Island will open to him without limit, and neither Luan Xiao'e nor Tang Jun will say anything about it.

There was enough replenishment for the Talent Tree's fuel reserve, and Lu Ye even left a batch of fire-type resources as a backup.

During this period, he also took time to visit Hua Ci in the merfolk territory. Unfortunately, after several years, the amber sealing Hua Ci remained unchanged, with no significant transformation.

The only thing that delighted Lu Ye was that he could sense Hua Ci's strength had greatly improved.

This is not hard to understand because, in Lu Ye's perception, the amber that sealed Hua Ci had been continuously absorbing the sea water of All Phenomena Ocean, seemingly possessing a refining capability. Even though this refining efficiency didn't match that of the Talent Tree, it was much more terrifying than the efficiency of a cultivator's normal cultivation.

Undoubtedly, part of the energy produced after refining the sea water of All Phenomena Ocean was used by Hua Ci, and naturally, her strength could improve.

Compared to Hua Ci's improvement, the enhancement of the Pixiu she held seemed even more terrifying...

Lu Ye was eagerly anticipating the state Hua Ci would be in after being unsealed.

Half a month after returning to All Phenomena Ocean, Lu Ye set off on the journey back to the Nine Provinces.

This journey was already very familiar to him.

In a swift twenty days, he returned to the Nine Provinces once again.

Xiang Yin and sister diligently guarded near the core, but Yang Ling and Hu Dequan were nowhere to be seen. According to Xiang Yin, they had already entered the Nine Provinces, but what they were doing there was unknown.

A short while later, in the Nine Provinces Governor's Palace, Lu Ye placed a large pile of storage rings on the table in front of him, jingling for quite a while.

The current Nine Provinces Governor, originally the Sect Master of a certain sect in Leizhou, widened his eyes in astonishment, "Brother Lu, what's going on here?" As he spoke, he picked up a storage ring and probed inside with his Mental Consciousness, almost blinded by the sight.

The ring was filled with spirit jade.

"This..." The Sect Master was shocked.

He picked up another storage ring and exclaimed again, "Ah, this..." Inside was also a large amount of spirit jade.

"Stop fussing." Lu Ye interrupted him, "These are resources brought back from Three Worlds Island. Get some people over to count them, then divide them into three parts. Our Nine Provinces will keep one part, and the other two will be sent to Qingli Dao World and Jade Conch World."

The Sect Master could hardly believe it, "Has our Three Worlds Island developed this well?"

Though the Nine Provinces had heard of the matters regarding All Phenomena Ocean for over a decade, and the first batch of cultivators had gone there some years ago, the local cultivators who stayed behind hadn't really obtained any tangible benefits from All Phenomena Ocean. This was the first time.

So many benefits!

Lu Ye smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "It will get even better in the future!"

He also warned, "Find reliable people to handle this, and don't embezzle anything privately. If I find out in the future, there will be no leniency."

The Sect Master immediately nodded, "Rest assured, I will personally oversee it."

Lu Ye swiftly departed and soon arrived at the core area, waving his hand, "Stand down, no need to keep watch here."

Xiang Yin and sister took the order and headed straight for the Nine Provinces.

Lu Ye stood in front of the core, pondered for a moment, and eventually flashed and entered the core world.

In the Origin space, Lu Ye sat cross-legged before the Origin that resembled a small sun.

At the last moment of the Black Abyss confrontation, the Origin, under Veteran Fang's control, rushed into Lu Ye's Divine Sea, and Lu Ye spent three years barely refining it.

Within the Origin, the consciousness of Veteran Fang and the consciousness of the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood were thoroughly refined.

It could be said that the present Origin was very pure, with no residual saintliness power. Thus, Lu Ye didn't need to busy himself further.

But the problem is, the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood had eroded Mount Fangcun's core for so many years, and the erosion wasn't just limited to the Origin.

The Origin was the key focus of the treasure blood's erosion because if it could erode the Origin away, the treasure blood's consciousness could control the core world.

Yet throughout the core world, besides the Origin being eroded, the entire domain still retained traces of the treasure blood's power. Not to mention, even now, from time to time, there would be a rain of blood in the core world, though not as frequent as before.

Lu Ye also personally investigated the spirit jade vein in the core world, which was likewise contaminated with saintliness power.

If these remnants of saintliness power in the core world are not thoroughly cleared, no one can predict what changes might occur once the three sections of Mount Fangcun fully integrate with the core, or whether there will be any saintliness power infecting the Dwarf Race cultivators.

If that happens, all the Dwarf Race would turn into the first generation Blood Race, which would undoubtedly be a tragedy and an unacceptable event for the Dwarf Race.

So what Lu Ye needs to do now is to completely purify the entire Core World before the three parts of Mount Fangcun merge over.

Under normal circumstances, he couldn't achieve this. Let alone him being just a Moon Jade, even a Sun Blaze coming here would find this task as difficult as climbing to the sky.

But after all, he has refined the core origin. With the help of Origin Power, he can clearly perceive every corner of the Core World, which makes the impossible possible!

Simply put, with the help of the core origin, he can extend the power of the Talent Tree to any part of the Core World, thereby refining the saintliness power lingering in this world cleanly.

This is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two. Lu Ye is mentally prepared for this, and he has prepared enough Talent Tree fuel, so there is no need to worry about a shortage of fuel.

Sinking his mind, relying on the core origin, Lu Ye radiated the power of the Talent Tree in all directions, gradually eroding the saintliness power lingering within the domain.

Time flowed by, with no knowledge of the changes in the sun and moon.

One day, Lu Ye suddenly sensed a violent tremor coming from the Core World, causing him to frown.

Before entering the Origin Space, he had already sealed the Core World, fearing someone might intrude. It wasn't that they would disturb him, but anyone entering might get tainted by the saintliness left by the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood.

He had already informed the Nine Provinces Governor's Hall, so no Nine Provinces cultivator should disregard his warning, and Xiang Yin and her sister certainly wouldn't defy him.

In confusion, Lu Ye extended his Mental Consciousness to investigate, wanting to see who was triggering the seal of the Core World.

He was soon surprised because Xiang Yin, her sister, Yang Ling, and Hu Dequan were all present beside the core, along with two other familiar figures.

At this moment, Xiang Yin and her sister were trembling because they could feel a powerful Mental Consciousness enveloping them, full of hostility, giving them the feeling they might die here at any moment.

The source of the Mental Consciousness was a cultivator in a blue robe, whose powerful aura revealed his identity as a Sun Blaze. Beside him, a graceful and poised woman stood quietly, speaking softly with Yang Ling and Hu Dequan.

Xiang Yin and her sister quickly realized the origins of these two Sun Blaze cultivators—they were from the Dwarf Race!

Suddenly, ripples appeared above the core, and Lu Ye's figure emerged.

Xiang Yin and her sister immediately sent hopeful glances towards him.

With a swift glance, Lu Ye understood what had happened. The Dwarf Race and the Blood Race are old enemies. Chen Xuanhai and Su Yuqing had come here to investigate the core, and Xiang Yin and her sister, unaware of the situation, tried to prevent them, thereby exposing their identity as the first generation of the Blood Race, and were subsequently subdued on the spot by Chen Xuanhai.

"Senior Brother Chen, Senior Sister Su!" Lu Ye stepped forward to greet them.

Su Yuqing, who was speaking with Yang Ling and Hu Dequan, turned her head towards him, smiling brightly, which stunned Yang Ling and Hu Dequan, as this Sun Blaze had been rather serious until now.

Hearing Lu Ye's address for the two Sun Blaze cultivators...the two couldn't help but recall the scene of meeting Lu Ye for the first time.

This person...is indeed a Master Uncle, though we were calling each other brothers before. In the future, our seniority might just drop a level.

Chen Xuanhai also glanced at Lu Ye, nodding slightly, and praised, "Well done!"

Throughout this hasty journey, both he and Su Yuqing had been somewhat uneasy, as no one could be sure if things were as they presumed before seeing the core with their own eyes.

It wasn't until they reached here, seeing the core placed right there!

Even though they had never seen the core, the deep-seated sensation within them couldn't be fake. This thing resembling an artificial hill was undoubtedly the core that the Dwarf Race lost countless years ago.

Think about it, Lu Ye is indeed a benefactor to the Dwarf Race, especially to the eastern part. He helped them win the Black Abyss Martial Arts Meet back then, and now he has helped them retrieve an essential item.

A mere compliment can't express the gratitude of the Dwarf Race. Fortunately, Junior Sister Su had the foresight to become his Dao companion early on, making Lu Ye half a member of the Dwarf Race, so contributing to the clan is only right.

"Senior Brother, you overpraise." Lu Ye said modestly, looking at Xiang Yin and her sister struggling, and said, "Senior Brother, please release them. They are my people."

Su Yuqing smiled gently, narrowing her eyes slightly, "Your people?"

Lu Ye suddenly felt a chill down his spine and hurriedly explained, "They are my subordinates. During the struggle for the core, they also contributed significantly."

"Oh?" Chen Xuanhai raised an eyebrow, not understanding what was going on, but he still released the suppression on Xiang Yin and her sister.

The two sisters staggered slightly, feeling as if they had narrowly escaped death.

Su Yuqing asked, "Did you just say a struggle for the core? With whom?"

Lu Ye sighed, "It's a long story; should we find a place to talk slowly?"

"Alright." Su Yuqing nodded. She was also curious about how Lu Ye managed to bring the core out of the marvel.

"If the two Master Uncles don't mind, you can come with me and Brother Hu. We have found a place to stay in this domain. It's not big, but it's quiet." Yang Ling suggested.

"Let's go." Chen Xuanhai, with hands behind his back, gestured for Yang Ling to lead the way.
