Ye Chen was slightly stunned when he heard Han Yun’s words.
He originally thought that these people were only being taken away as slaves, but now, from Han Yun’s words, it was obvious that these people were used for torture and enjoyment.
If that was really the case, it was really too much!
“You’ve witnessed it with your own eyes?” Ye Chen asked Han Yun.
Han Yun stood up and nodded. “Those seven experts of the Blood Spirit Clan are completely different from the six you fought here.”
“Are you saying that their cultivation realms surpass the Supreme Emperor realm?” Ye Chen’s face suddenly looked worried.
Although this was expected, if this was really the case, things would be much more troublesome.
How could he fight those seven alone?
” How much do you know about what will happen in a year and a half? I need to know everything!”
Ye Chen’s tone was extremely serious and cold.
Han Yun sighed and continued, “It’s been so many years, but it hasn’t changed at all!”
“Everyone in the Kunlun Mountains and I wanted to fight against them, but in the end, the result was obvious. The difference between the experts of the Blood Spirit Tribe and us was like the difference between the experts of the Kunlun Mountains and the ordinary people in Huaxia.”
“Not only are their cultivation realms higher, but their techniques are stronger too. I’ve been pretending to be crazy for so many years because I don’t want to be discovered by those people.”
“There are also fewer and fewer Supreme Emperor realm experts in the Kunlun Mountains, which has curbed the development of the Kunlun Mountains.”
“Of course, there are also other families who have secretly nurtured some Supreme Emperor realm experts and preserved them in preparation for resisting them!”
“However, among the seven of them, the strongest is infinitely close to that realm, and the weakest is not something our experts from the Kunlun Mountains can resist!”
Han Yun said somewhat helplessly, “Even with my current strength, or that of ancestors of those families outside the secret realm, it’s almost impossible for us to resist them.”
“Any one of them has the combat strength to instantly kill me!”
Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded slightly and thought to himself, ‘If that’s the case, I will have to reach the peak of the Supreme Emperor realm at the very least to ensure that I can defeat all seven of the Blood Spirit Clan experts!’
He had to advance so many cultivation realms in one and a half years!
It was simply inconceivable!
Although his rate of advancement was heaven-defying, if he really wanted to accomplish this, the path was fraught with danger and pain.
He could not keep relying on the ancient mighty experts in the Samsara Graveyard. After all, they were only divine souls. They might be able to attack once or twice, but they most likely would not be able to fight long enough to deal with those seven people.
It was still best to rely on himself.
Ye Chen then turned his gaze back to Han Yun.
“What about the Huang family? You should know them quite well, right?”
“Naturally!” Han Yun recalled for a moment and recounted, “Back then, the Huang family and several other forces colluded with the Blood Spirit Clan, allowing them to descend upon the Kunlun Mountains. The Huang family did not have any top experts back then, and even though they have been exempt from the hundred-year deadline, the ancestor of the Huang family has only reached the eighth level of the Supreme Emperor realm.”
“If you want to deal with the Huang family, I can contact the ancestors of the other families and help you deal with their ancestor first!”
“I can even help you deal with the Supreme Emperor realm experts of the Huang family. However, there are likely too many of them.”
“More importantly, the Heaven’s Declaration rankings are closely related to the Huang family. For so many years, almost no one from the Huang family has been on the rankings. Even if they’re on the rankings, it’s only to confuse the various large families of the Kunlun Mountains.”
“It’s best if we think of a way to subdue the Huang family. That’s because their Supreme Emperor realm experts are a valuable resource in fighting the Blood Spirit Clan, especially given how few there are left in the Kunlun Mountains.”
“Otherwise, even if you handle the strongest expert of the Blood Spirit Clan, the others will crush the rest of the Kunlun Mountains!”
Han Yun looked at Ye Chen and examined his movements and demeanor, but he did not see anything unusual.
He then said, “I don’t intend to spare the Huang family, but we need to make use of them first. After the war is over, we will kill these traitors one by one!”
Ye Chen did not say anything. In his eyes, the traitorous families and forces should not be left alive.
However, Han Yun’s suggestion was not wrong. If these families and forces were not properly dealt with, then in a year and a half, he would face not only the experts of the Blood Spirit Clan, but also these traitorous families and forces.
That was the worst-case scenario!
However, given that there were so many Supreme Emperor realm experts, how could he subdue them?
While Ye Chen was busy pondering this matter, a voice rang out in his mind. “There’s someone in the Samsara Graveyard who can do it!”
Ye Chen was stunned. He quickly sent his consciousness into the Samsara Graveyard.
Xue Qiye stood in front of a tombstone with his hands behind his back and his eyes fixed on it.
“Senior Xue, who can do it? Can I activate his tombstone?” Ye Chen quickly asked.
This was the question that Ye Chen was most concerned about. There were still many tombstones that were dim in the Samsara Graveyard, which meant that he had yet to meet the criteria to activate them.
Xue Qiye did not respond for a long time. After a full ten seconds, he said, “This person is called the Sword Emperor. He’s also from the Kunlun Mountains and is a peerless master of the sword. I’m no match for him when it comes to sword techniques.”
“However, the key point here is that this person’s truly famous technique is to forcefully seal the enemy’s cultivation technique, which also happens to be his innate technique. He has no descendants, so after the Sword Emperor disappeared, the sealing technique also disappeared as well.”
“Therefore, if you want to implement Han Yun’s plan, you have to activate this tombstone.”
Ye Chen looked at the dim and desolate tombstone and said, “Senior Xue, of course I want to see this person, but it took me so long to even trigger your tombstone, and it’ll take even longer for his, right? Is there some other way?”
Xue Qiye did not say anything, but looked at Mo Ning.
Mo Ning’s eyes gave Ye Chen a hint. She walked to Ye Chen. “Tomb Master, there’s actually another way to activate the tombstones of the Samsara Graveyard!”
“What way?” Ye Chen asked excitedly.
Mo Ning smiled.
“The tomb master should know that in order to activate the tombstone, one needs to be recognized by its owner. The Sword Emperor is from the Kunlun Mountains. Incidentally, he cares a lot about his sword!”
