Ye Luo gathered these people for certain reasons, although he did not actually integrate them. It can be said that these people are green with envy when they look at the treatment received by the Dragon Pavilion and Ye Alliance disciples!

A single Spirit Gathering Pill could directly enhance one’s cultivation rapidly without any impact on the body!

A Dividing Soul Pill is like giving a person a second life!

In addition, there were dozens of other kinds of elixirs - those that reinforced defenses, extended lifespan, and increased strength!

All sorts of elixirs made the people from the Hidden Sects immensely envious!

It might be slightly better for the secular families, after all, they typically owned their own industries, so even if the family or Sect’s powerhouses were slain, the presence of those industries ensured that the family’s disciples would not easily scatter!

But the Hidden Sects were different. Their disciples were devoted to covert cultivation, and now their masters were gone, and so were the senior and junior masters!

They had already lost their core support!

Hence, joining the Dragon Pavilion or the Ye Alliance was the greatest wish of these Hidden Sect disciples, but unfortunately, joining was not as simple as they would like it to be!

Therefore, they had to perform well, they had to kill enemies and achieve merits!

Not just for the quota of the Martial Realm, even just to get Ye Lu’s approval to join either the Dragon Pavilion or the Ye Alliance would send them into raptures!

Ye Luo silently watched the battlefield, and it was only then that he realized how insignificant one’s strength could be. However, Ye Luo was actually waiting for someone!

Waiting for the Corpse King Palace’s Hall Master to appear!

The time had come for a decisive battle, and with the headquarters of the Corpse King Palace surrounded, Ye Luo believed that its Hall Master would definitely show up!

Just like how Ye Luo wanted to slay this Hall Master, probably, deep down, the Hall Master had a burning desire to kill Ye Luo!

Whether it was Ye Luo or the Hall Master, whoever could slay the other could potentially determine the outcome of the entire battlefield, and perhaps even directly secure a victory!

If he had a choice, Ye Luo would prefer to fight a death battle with the Hall Master to decide the outcome of the war!

However, it was not up to Ye Luo’s preferences!

In fact, Ye Luo could not even be certain that the Hall Master would come!

But fortunately, in the end, the Hall Master did come!

...

"Master, here are the three elixirs you requested. We gathered materials from the entire Hidden Sects, and then the Elixir Sect disciples ceaselessly refined them, but in the end, we only obtained these three!"

Ye Luo nodded without speaking and directly took the inconspicuous three pills from Long Xiaotian’s hand!

Each of these three elixirs had a special effect, and it could be said that they were also Ye Luo’s contingency plan!

Without these three pills, Ye Luo might not even have the confidence to challenge the Corpse King Palace Hall Master!

The Corpse King Palace Hall Master walked toward Ye Luo, and Ye Luo walked straight towards him, too!

The surrounding disciples stopped their battles and silently retreated back to their own camps, waiting for the conversation between the two.

Ye Luo and the Corpse King Palace Hall Master stood opposite each other, proudly standing in mid-air under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of onlookers.

"Are you the Hall Master of the Corpse King Palace?"

Ye Luo was the first to ask.

"Why? I don’t look the part?"

The Hall Master replied. In fact, Ye Luo indeed felt that this person did not look like the Corpse King Palace Hall Master! 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Just like the other Hall Masters, the Corpse King Palace Hall Master also wore a white robe and appeared to be about thirty-four or so, in his prime!

However, Ye Luo saw through it all at a glance - his cultivation had actually reached the Stepping into Emptiness Realm!

Most importantly, though he appeared to be around thirty-four on the surface, through the Clairvoyant Eye, Ye Luo could tell that this person was definitely much older!

The two of them chatted casually, like friends encountering each other on the road, discussing weather, television, and even the scenery under the watchful gaze of hundreds of thousands.

"Hall Master, there’s one thing I don’t understand. Your Corpse King Palace is undeniably strong, but clearly not as strong as Huaxia. Why then would you initiate such a battle? With the divine pills at your disposal, could you not have waited in hiding for several decades, with Huaxia having no power to stop you then?"

Ye Luo asked lightly, standing side by side with the Corpse King Palace Hall Master.

The Hall Master just smiled faintly: "Not bad, you’ve seen through this layer; that’s good. Young man, you’ve said a lot. It’s not that we couldn’t have waited for decades, even just five more years, how could you possibly amass so much strength? However, although I am the Hall Master of the Corpse King Palace, some things are not up to me."

"You mean your envoys? Or perhaps the Third Prince?"

Ye Luo suddenly reacted. In reality, it might be the envoys who are the true masters of the Corpse King Palace!

"I didn’t expect you to know about the Third Prince. Naturally, I knew when you went to the Martial Realm. In fact, powers like those on Immortal Mountain, each one we have noted down. Immortal Mountain’s Miao is a piece of Huaxia’s land, but do you understand what this land truly represents?"

The Hall Master’s sudden counter-question slightly stunned Ye Luo. Indeed, Ye Luo knew that Miao meant land, but he did not know the significance of this land, and who conferred it, he had no idea!

"Please enlighten me, Hall Master!"

"Ha ha, after today’s battle, it’s either your death or mine. Today, Ye Luo, I will tell you some things, some things about our Earth and Huaxia. You listen carefully; perhaps in your eyes, the Corpse King Palace is evil, but do you know what the Corpse King Palace’s predecessor was?"

Without waiting for Ye Luo to answer, the Corpse King Palace Hall Master continued.

"A thousand years ago, our Corpse King Palace was just a second-rate small power, to be precise, a secular power. We lived by transporting corpses, and the disciples in our Sect were merely a few hundred. Of course, you might not believe me; after all, you always knew our Corpse King Palace to be unfathomably evil, defeated by the Dragon Pavilion a thousand years ago and then hidden for a millennium!"

"But I can tell you today that all of this is just lies spun by those with ulterior motives. To be exact, the entire world of the strong on our Earth, in fact, has been concocted by some people. Someone wrote down everything about Earth, including strength divisions, including power distributions, and all of us are merely pawns, just pawns evolving step by step according to the world they have written!"

"Ye Luo, you are our Earth’s number one genius; you are destined to enter the Martial Realm, but I fear, the day you enter the Martial Realm will be the day of your death because you are also Earth’s largest variable!"

What does this mean!
