Half an hour later, when Li Yao returned to the deck of his five-toothed ship, he was still thinking about what the Phoenix Emperor had just said.
The meaning of those words was very obvious.
The Phoenix Emperor wanted to win over Li Yao and establish a sect that was more aligned with the imperial court to compete with the current six major sects and many small and medium-sized sects.
This exploration of the Immortal Palace is an opportunity for cooperation between the two parties.
If Li Yao was really the "Master Lingjiu" and came with the purpose of "making a name for himself and establishing a sect", he would most likely be persuaded by the Phoenix Emperor.
"The young emperor's scheming is indeed deep enough, his vision is far-sighted enough, and there is a strong confidence in his words.
It seems that he has some unknown reliance!"
"Otherwise, with his own strength, even if there are five of us, he may not be able to control so many Yuan Yings from the six major sects!"
"Thinking about it, if I am a spy of the True Human Empire, I have just arrived, and I want to guide the ancient holy world to surrender to the empire, it would be a matter of course for me to cooperate with Emperor Daqian!"
"So, if a big villain must emerge during this exploration of the Immortal Palace, it will most likely be the Phoenix Emperor!"
"On the other hand, Qi Zhongdao may be so eager to cooperate with the Phoenix Emperor that there may be a big problem.
He wants to clean up the entire world of cultivation and establish a set of rules of his own.
He also has a very strong motive to cooperate with the True Human Empire.
Spy cooperation!”
"There is also Wang Xi, a dead eunuch who is both male and female.
The entire exploration of the Immortal Palace was planned by him.
I feel that he still hides many secrets that have not been made public, and he is not an easy person to deal with!"
"And the three evil men, Han Baling, Wan Mingzhu and Qi Changsheng, each have sufficient motives.
Cooperating with the True Human Empire, they may encounter sudden difficulties during this exploration of the Immortal Palace, but they must be guarded against. !”
"As for Yan Liren, Ba Xiaoyu and Master Kuchan..."
"It feels like the whole thing should have nothing to do with them, but that's not necessarily the case.
Judging from past experience, the more innocent, ordinary, and righteous the person seems at first, the more likely he is to be the mastermind behind the scenes!
Maybe when everyone fights , both sides suffered losses, and after the fight, Master Kuchan suddenly laughed harshly and chanted the Buddha's name: 'Long live the true empire of mankind!
' That's fucking embarrassing!"
"Wait a minute, doesn't that mean that everyone involved in this expedition to the Immortal Palace, whether teammates or enemies, may be a villain with evil intentions?"
Li Yao scratched his head desperately.
He has explored countless ancient ruins in his life, and this seems to be the most complicated one now.
"More than that?"
The blood-colored inner demon emerged from the depths of his mind, "Not only are everyone involved in this operation suspect, they may all be the villains.
Aren't we also the villains?"
"Um?"
Li Yao was slightly startled and blinked.
"From our perspective, we naturally feel that among these people, those who cooperate with the Real Human Empire are the big bad guys and villains."
The bloody inner demon smiled and said, "But from the perspective of the natives of the ancient holy world, we are the 'alien invaders' with ulterior motives.
Aren't we the out-and-out villains?"
"I advise you not to look at the whole thing and analyze our friends and enemies through the simple concept of 'good and evil'."
"Even if Ba Xiaoyu, Master Kuchan and others are really chivalrous, upright and compassionate, we and the Real Human Empire are both 'alien invaders'.
Why should they choose us instead of others?"
Where is the empire?”
"For example, in order to protect the entire ancient holy world from the ravages of war, so that all the people can live and work in peace and contentment, Master Ba Xiaoyu and Kuchan have to make a deal with the empire.
Isn't it possible to help the empire deal with the Federation?"
Li Yao let out a long breath and realized that this possibility not only existed, but was also very high.
In the final analysis, the "Old Saint Civilization" and the "Xingyao Civilization" have gone their separate ways for hundreds of thousands of years.
They have been racing along different development paths and are already two completely different civilizations.
The natives of the Ancient Holy World have no obligation or position at all to think about the Star Star Federation.

Even a compassionate person like Master Kuchan would not be able to sacrifice thousands of compatriots in the Ancient Holy World, or even risk the destruction of the entire civilization, to help the Federation fight a losing battle!
It is really difficult to convince most of these super Nascent Souls!
"No matter what, when we get to the Immortal Palace, we'll see you again and again!"
Li Yao looked at the gray sky in the distance and couldn't wait to reach the Immortal Palace. … "The strong wind is coming!"
"Retract the sails, lower the altitude, and raise the psychic shield!"
"All cultivators stick to their posts.
Foundation building, pill formation, and Nascent Soul are all using their spiritual energy to strengthen the defensive formation and resist the strong wind!"
"Crack!
Click, click, click!"
"Ah!
Not good!"
"The Ying Yang failed to furl its sails in time, its main mast broke, and it was caught in the whirlpool of the strong wind.
There are faint signs of losing control.
Please go to the rescue immediately, all immortal masters in the Nascent Soul stage!"
"Be careful not to let the Yingyang hit the Flying Tiger.
The Flying Tiger stores a large number of fire crystals for heating!"
"The keel of the Ying Yang is broken and is about to collapse.
The Ying Yang is hopeless.
The Ying Yang is hopeless!"
"Everyone on the Yingyang must quickly retreat to the Feihu, Yinjiao, and Yuxu.
Please use all the immortal masters in the Nascent Soul Stage to control the Gangfeng and buy time for the crew of the Yingyang to escape from the Gang."
The wind swirls!”
It was obviously a crazy infusion of psychic energy, and the roar was deafening around the deck.
However, once it left the defensive range of the psychic shield and was torn apart by the overwhelming wind, it immediately fell into pieces and turned into the moans of butterflies.
Couldn't hear it at all.
This is the twentieth day since the joint exploration fleet, representing the most elite force in the entire Daqian, has sailed away from the continent.
They were above the ocean, relying on the power of the trade wind, and went northward in an arc.
They finally bypassed Youyun State five days ago and re-entered the desolate and barren land.
From that moment on, what surged between heaven and earth was no longer a gentle trade wind with a stable direction, but a chaotic wind that had no rules at all, appeared and appeared in random directions.
Only the most experienced sailors, who climb up and down the cables day and night, constantly adjusting the angles of dozens of sails, can make the most of every gust of wind.
Such a sailor cannot be accomplished by ordinary people.
They are often cultivators who have been trained by major sects and royal families since childhood and have a special perception of wind spiritual energy.
Such special talents are called "Wind Controllers" in the world of cultivation.
The royal family and the six major sects have the best "wind controllers" in the entire ancient holy world.
With the exquisite manipulation of these people, they steadily traveled a full eight thousand miles in just three days.
But the good luck ends there.
Ahead is the State of Eternal Night in the Far North, where the howling winds between heaven and earth have been upgraded into strong winds mixed with violent spiritual energy.
That is a strong wind that can even tear the flesh and blood of a cultivator alive!
Li Yao had never seen such a violent wind.
Even the lightning and thundering sandstorms in the wilderness seemed not as violent as the snowstorms mixed with ice cores in the Eternal Night State in the far north.
It was as if the stars in the entire universe had turned into fist-sized hailstones, all of which hit the top of the fleet.
Under the raging wind, they spun at lightning speed, trying to crush everything that invaded it!
Looking far into the distance, there was a white snowstorm all around, and only the shadows of the psychic flying boats could be seen around them.
Listen carefully, you will hear the howling of ghosts and wolves, suppressing everything, the roaring sound that seems to never end.
This is the will of heaven and earth, this is the rage of the entire planet!

Even high-level monks in the Nascent Soul stage cannot compete with such power!
Under the raging wind that destroyed the heaven and earth, all the psychic airships were unable to move forward or retreat.
They could only lower the sails as quickly as possible, shoot out claw anchors towards the ground or the surrounding seemingly solid peaks, and rely on more than seventy or eighty thigh-thick legs.
The iron locks firmly fixed themselves, and all the cultivators worked together to operate the defense array with all their strength to prevent the strong wind from invading the cabin!
If there is any hesitation when lowering the sails, just like the five-toothed ship "Ying Yang", it will be swept into the depths of the strong wind, and it will be completely torn apart along with dozens of cultivators who have no time to fly out.
Broken to pieces, with no bones left!
Even if you lower the sail and secure yourself firmly, everything will not be alright.
Hundreds of iron chains were stretched straight in the strong wind, but soon a layer of white frost condensed and screamed.
If you are unlucky and the claw anchor is nailed to a relatively fragile rock or ground and cannot withstand the force of the strong wind, it will be thrown away after a harsh sound.
After losing the support of several chains, the pressure on the remaining chains became even greater.
Many chains broke off, causing the psychic spaceship to shake violently in mid-air.
After shaking for two times, it would "click" Break, shatter!
The strong wind swept across the whole day and night.
In addition to the Ying Yang, there were three psychic flying boats, which just collapsed and sank in the sand.
What an "old Yuanying monster" like Li Yao can do, besides doing everything he can to strengthen the defensive array on his own battleship, is to barely control the Gangfeng and gain time to escape before the rest of the battleships are about to collapse.
Watching helplessly, countless cultivators, including several cultivators in the Dan Formation stage, were caught in the strong wind, unable to break free, and were eventually annihilated in the white wind and snow.
Even before disappearing, their muscles and bones were broken, and they were torn apart so cruelly.
This scene really made Li Yao sigh.
No wonder Qi Zhongdao, Ba Xiaoyu and others, no matter how much they dislike the court and the major sects, they have to hold their noses and cooperate.
They have a well-equipped fleet that can support and protect each other, yet they have suffered such heavy losses.
If you rely on your own strength and just rely on a few Nascent Soul monsters to break into the Eternal Night State in the far north, the consequences will be really disastrous!
