Chapter 399: Chapter 321 Chaotic Time-Space Lotus_1

Both tripods must contain significant secrets; according to the records of the Confucian Sect, we can certainly find some clues.
Li Cheng also put away the Nine Brilliance Star Venerable Tripod, deciding to discuss it after his master had thoroughly investigated.
“Step back a bit; Your teacher will deal with this Blood Lake first.”
As Li Cheng stepped back, Wu Ya’s Haoran Justice Air transformed into Divine Fire, which surged into the Blood Lake, causing its level to decrease rapidly!
Even the bloodthirsty air and Demonic Qi contained in the Blood Lake were quickly dissolving.
Half an Hour had passed, and the Blood Lake had completely disappeared.
Wu Ya reached into the ground and pulled out divine veins one after another.
“This forbidden area created by the Blood Demon Clan has no other treasures?” Li Cheng asked.
The Mole was still cultivating in Blunt Empty Residence, and since the residence was left in Fu City, without that creature there, finding some treasures would likely be easier.
Wu Ya shook his head, “The Blood Demon Clan has been entrenched here for who knows how many years; any treasures would have already been taken by them. Besides, is there any treasure in such a small branch of the Blood Demon Clan that could compare to top-grade Divine Veins?”
Top-grade Divine Veins were indeed precious. Initially, Ao Jiugai had given him a strand of Original Divine Qi which enabled Li Cheng to break through two Minor realms.
But this place was transformed from a Divine Dragon of Divine Emperor level after it died; it’s a bit illogical to say there are no other treasures here!
Alas, the Blood Demon Clan had occupied this place for too long; even if there were treasures, they would have already been taken away.
“Don’t fret over it, is there anything else you need? If not, your teacher will send you back first, and then I must hurry to the Confucian Sect.” Wu Ya spoke.
“So urgent? Master, we haven’t seen each other for so many years…”
Wu Ya interrupted Li Cheng, “You are almost a Divine King yourself, already graduated from being a disciple, and do not require your teacher’s guidance. So cut out these useless formalities; in the future, we will have plenty of time to meet.”
Li Cheng had much to say to his master, but seeing his attitude, he had to let go and instead said, “There’s one more thing, Master. Dozens of years ago, I massively produced Divine Pills and Divine Artifacts, which caught the attention of the Demon Race. They’ve always wanted to capture me, and I owe my safety to the protection of Blunt Empty Venerable.”
“Now our Human Tribe’s army is in a standoff with the forces of the Evil Demons. Since Teacher is here, could you perhaps lend a hand?”
Wu Ya looked at Li Cheng with a skeptical expression, “You’re saying that you, on your own, provoked a war between the two races?”
Li Cheng nodded, “More or less, though there are surely historical reasons between the two races; I am undoubtedly the catalyst.”
Wu Ya’s expression turned odd as he pondered, “I really didn’t realize you were so prone to causing trouble! When you were at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, weren’t you always low-key?”
Li Cheng shrugged, “No choice; I figured once I made a name for myself in the Divine Realm, the day you and those disciples ascended to the Divine Realm, you would easily find me. So I took advantage of the Hundred Dynasties Meeting to make a big splash!”
Wu Ya clicked his tongue, “Impressive, my disciple!”
“But what did you mean by ‘massively producing Divine Pills and Divine Artifacts’?”
When he was still at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, he had not taught Li Cheng the ways of Alchemy or Artifact Refining. Now, it seemed his disciple was quite skilled at both, so much so that the Evil Demons would instigate a war just to capture him.
Li Cheng had no choice but to explain, “It means refining a million batches of ingredients in one furnace, producing tens of millions of pills, all of high quality; the same goes for Artifact Refining.”
Wu Ya looked at Li Cheng with doubt in his eyes, an expression that seemed to ask: Are you serious? Can Alchemy and Artifact Refining even be like that?
However, he naturally did not doubt the truth of what Li Cheng was saying and nodded, “Impressive, my disciple!”
Changing the topic, Wu Ya asked, “You just mentioned those disciples; did you take on disciples? Do I have granddisciples? Who are they?”
His face was filled with anticipation, like an old man looking forward to meeting his grandchildren.
Li Cheng was at a loss for words and simply said, “I took on ten in the Kunlun Realm and two in the Divine Realm; each and every one of them is a talent among talents!”
Wu Ya’s eyes lit up, “You must bring them to meet your teacher when you have time. As for the standoff between the two races, it’s not something that your teacher can change by himself.”
“Master, in the standoff between the two races, Divine Venerables are the ultimate force. The side with more Divine Venerables naturally has the advantage. Furthermore, the Confucian Sect initially gained the help of the Saintess, and now they have the support of two Divine Venerables. Aren’t you going to take a look, Master?”
Hearing this, Wu Ya suddenly turned his gaze towards Li Cheng, “You have seen the Saintess?”
“No, why?” Li Cheng was somewhat puzzled; his master’s reaction this time seemed a bit unusual!
“Ha, it’s nothing. The Saintess holds an extremely high position in the Confucian Sect. I didn’t expect she would come in person,” said Wu Ya.
Li Cheng sensed that his master might be hiding something, but he didn’t think much of it and replied, “She has left already; now there are two other Confucian Divine Venerables.”
Wu Ya nodded, “Then your teacher will go take a look. Even if I can’t be of much help, I should at least show my concern. It’s not right for others to fight for my disciple while your teacher doesn’t even bother to look,” he said.
Li Cheng was relieved. With his master willing to help, it would undoubtedly be a great boost. Having witnessed his master’s terrifying power before, Blunt Empty Venerable and the others would surely have an easier time with his assistance.
Leaving the underground, the two of them headed directly east towards the Land Puppet Mansion in Fu City.
In one day’s time, they had already left the Demon Domain, and up ahead was where the Human Tribe’s army was stationed. From a great distance, two Divine Venerable-level auras soared into the sky, evidently detecting Wu Ya’s Divine Venerable Qi.
“The Dragon Emperor is here too?” Wu Ya brightened upon sensing those two auras.
Li Cheng was stunned for a moment; Master knows Blunt Empty Venerable and the Dragon Emperor too?
But the timeline doesn’t match up! Both Blunt Empty Venerable and the Dragon Emperor had ascended to the Divine Realm two hundred million years ago.
