No matter how you look at it, this maidservant before us is just like a living person. There are almost no flaws to be found.

Lu Ye soon noticed something was wrong.

Because there was no sign of spiritual energy or divine consciousness emanating from Yun Xuechu's body!

In other words, this maid was not the one driving!

Lu Ye was a bit lost now. He could be sure that the maid in front of him was indeed a creation of the Yanshi, but... If no one commanded her, how did she move How did she speak

"Master, what's going on" Lu Ye looked at Yun Xuechu.

"This is the Art of Separation," Yun Xuechu explained. "Strictly speaking, Xiadie is considered my avatar."

"Clone!" Lu Ye was startled.

Although he was only at the Yunhe Realm, a distance of 108,000 miles from the Shenhai Realm, and didn't understand things like splitting one's consciousness or creating avatars, he could still see some of the mysteries within it. He knew this must be an incredibly powerful secret technique.

"I didn't tell you these things before because I was afraid you would take on too much and not be able to digest it," Yun Xuechu began. "You must have noticed that in addition to the orthodox paths of cultivation practiced by the major sects in Jiuzhou, there are also many side paths, such as formations, alchemy, weapon refining, or even puppetry. But no matter which path you choose, they all have a close relationship with spirit runes. Even the cultivators who practice magical arts rely on spirit runes to cast spells. These can all be considered branches of spirit runes."

Lu Ye nodded.

As a Spirit Weaver, how could he possibly not notice this.

For all offshoots, the Spirit Rune Path is the foundation. If the Spirit Rune Path is powerful, then no matter what other path one cultivates, their progress will be doubled.

Like how a bamboo shoot can grow rapidly on the path.

While the two times he ascended the Hundred-Layered Pagoda certainly yielded great rewards, his inherent talent also played a crucial role. All of this is thanks to the benefits brought by the Way of Spirit Veins.

Since Lu Ye was already cultivating the Array Dao, Yun Xuechu never mentioned other side paths to him.

In fact, if it weren't for Lu Ye asking about it this time, she wasn't planning on bringing it up.

The art of the sword seems miraculous to outsiders, but if one truly wants to master it, they need to invest a huge amount of energy and wealth. For someone like Lu Ye, whose cultivation level is not high and whose main goal is to improve his cultivation, it's not advisable to get too involved.

Especially so when Lu Ye has practiced the Dao of Formations.

"How did you notice" Yun Xuechu asked.

Back then, when she resided at Mingxin Peak, Shui Yuan visited several times but never detected anything amiss. Bear in mind that at that time, Shui Yuan had already reached the Zhenhu realm.

She didn't think Shui Yuan's eyesight would be as poor as Lu Ye's at that time.

"Master, please look at this." Lu Ye took out the damaged dragon throne from his storage space.

After placing Yiyi back inside the amber, Lu Ye put the amber into his spirit beast bag before finally arriving at the Heavenly Machine Pillar.

Master Yu hasn't given any news yet, the promotion of Pianshan Sword clearly isn't finished.

This was within Lu Ye's expectations.

He was not much affected by it.

Tracing one's battle scars, beneath the column for wins in the Cloud River Hegemony contest, a new piece of information has appeared.

Ranking: Top 3,000.

The initial seven days of the Yunhe Hegemony competition have concluded, and from countless Yunhe realm cultivators, the top three thousand strongest have been selected to continue the next round of battles.

This extra information undoubtedly means that Lu Ye has obtained the qualification to enter the next round. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

I believe Fourth Senior Brother and the others should also be qualified.

Even Hua Ci, Lu Ye was not worried. This woman might appear to be a healer on the surface, but she used poison techniques so silently that no one knew. Moreover, her cultivation level was not low now. Even if those Ninth Layer cultivators encountered her, unless they could quickly win, once she found an opportunity, it's possible they wouldn't even know how they lost.

3,000 people have already been shortlisted, and the second round of competition is about to begin.

After some thought, Lü Ye took out a mask from his storage space and put it on.

Before this, there have been many times when people recognized his identity. Fearing his reputation, they would proactively concede defeat.

Of the three thousand people who have been screened, each one must be exceptionally skilled. They will not be as uneven in ability as before.

It can be said that these people will definitely give their all in battle, just to strive for a higher ranking.

They are the most outstanding group of people in Yunhe Realm of this generation.

Lu Ye also wanted to try their methods, concealing her face would also relieve some of the pressure on certain people.
