Chapter 2098: Life and Death
After killing the Star Abyss strangers who have entered the Dao realm, the best trophy for the Starry Sky Monks is the Dao foundation they left behind after their death. With this, the Starry Sky Monks can recover their own Dao power more quickly.

Compared with practicing in seclusion, this is the way for starry sky monks to continuously maintain their own strength.

Although Lu Ye had killed many Star Abyss strangers during this period, because he did not go deep enough into the battlefield, the enemies he encountered were all those who had no Taoism foundation. Even if he killed them, it would not be of much value. At most he could only collect some spoils.

But he knew that after joining the A-3 team, the enemies he would face would not be of the same level as before.

He was vaguely looking forward to it.

Calming his mind, he carefully looked at the bones in his hand, and could vaguely see a faint golden light among the bones.

He held the bones in his hands and activated the power of the talent tree. In just a moment, he refined the remaining Taoist power in the bones.

Upon closer inspection, it seemed that his own Taoist power had increased by a little more than four strands, which was indeed able to make up for his previous losses.

We sped along the way without talking.

Even if they happened to encounter some strange visitors from the starry sky, Du Qingsha ignored them. She just led the team and galloped towards the depths of the battlefield.

As if seeing Lu Ye's doubts, Xu Rong explained: "Our A3 team is the sharpest knife in the Thunder Fortress. In this case, we must deal with the most powerful enemies. It is not easy to recover the power. Those enemies who are not up to the standard will be dealt with by others, so we don't have to waste our power."

Lu Ye understood.

A few days later, the team had already passed the limit of Lu Ye's previous depth and continued to move forward.

After a few days, Du Qingsha, who was leading the flight, finally stopped, turned around and looked around, and said, "That's enough, everyone hide."

Xu Rong and the snake girl nodded immediately, each took out their magic weapons, concealed their bodies and restrained their breath, and instantly disappeared from Lu Ye's sight.

Du Qingsha looked at Lu Ye again: "Your task is very simple, walk around and stroll around, but don't be too deliberate, and stay alert!"

Lu Ye laughed in silence, knowing that Du Qingsha was using him as bait.

But then again, among the four people in the team, there is really no one more suitable to be bait than him, because his cultivation level is the lowest, and generally a cultivator with his cultivation level would not appear in such a position. Any alien from the Star Abyss who discovers a cultivator like him would probably be tempted to take action.

After giving Lu Ye some instructions, Du Qingsha used some unknown method and her figure quickly disappeared.

Xu Rong's voice came from my ear: "Don't be afraid, brother. We are all by your side. If there is any disturbance, we will rush out to save you."

Lu Ye had nothing to fear. Since there was an arrangement, he just had to do his part.

Team A3 should have used this method to kill the enemy in the past. After all, if a team of four showed up at the same time, even if Xingyuan Yike had a stupid brain, he would know that he could not defeat them and would definitely run away.

Lu Ye walked and stopped, looking very alert. From time to time, he released his spiritual sense to sense the surroundings and tried his best to restrain his breath. But even so, when his magic power was activated, his cultivation level was clearly visible.

This is already deep in the battlefield, and the density of Star Abyss aliens is much greater than when he and Jiuyan were originally there.

So after just a moment, a stranger from Xingyuan fell into the trap and couldn't help but rush out to kill. It looked like this guy had just experienced a battle, and the wounds on his body had not yet healed. He rushed towards Lu Ye with great momentum. Lu Ye also pretended to be panicked at the right time and turned around to flee.

The alien from Xingyuan had no suspicion and chased him closely.

However, the snake woman's snake-shaped armor suddenly appeared from the side. This woman grasped the timing of the sneak attack very cleverly. After appearing, the snake-shaped armor was like a living thing, and it quickly wrapped around the Xingyuan stranger, strangling him tightly and preventing him from escaping.

Xu Rong's Yanjia followed closely behind, and while the enemy was restrained, he smashed his head with a fierce punch.

The battle ended in just three breaths since the snake girl appeared, and it also announced the death of a stranger from the Star Abyss who had entered the realm of Tao.

The snake girl released the enemy's body, and Xu Rong accurately removed a piece of bone from the body and put it away.

The two of them leaped up and disappeared into the darkness.

The killing of the enemy and the looting were done in one go, and it was obvious that he had done this kind of business countless times. From beginning to end, Du Qingsha never appeared.

"Well done, let's go to another place!" Du Qingsha's voice came into Lu Ye's ears, expressing her affirmation of his superb acting skills.

Lu Ye followed her instructions.

In the next few days, Team A3 relied on this simple and crude method to hunt down the Star Abyss strangers in this area, and several battles broke out almost every day.

During this period, it was basically Xu Rong and the snake girl who were killing the enemies. Du Qingsha only took action once. The enemy that time was quite powerful, with the power of three Dao. Xu Rong and the snake girl joined forces, but they were unable to defeat the opponent in one encounter. Instead, they provoked the opponent to become more ferocious and got rid of the snake girl's entanglement.

But with Du Qingsha's attack, the battle ended quickly.

In this battlefield, the sooner the monks' battle ends, the better, because once it becomes a war of attrition, the loss of power is something no one can afford. It is for this reason that even though Du Qingsha is powerful, she still needs the assistance of several teammates.

Moreover, the sooner the battle ends, the more Dao power will remain in the spoils, and the higher the value will be.

On a Death Star that was broken into several pieces, the four members of Team A3 found a hidden location to rest while also dividing the spoils.

The four of them sat in a circle, with more than a dozen Dao bones in front of them, all of which were obtained from killing enemies in recent days. Du Qingsha scanned them with her divine sense, picked up two of them, and threw them to Lu Ye: "This is yours."

Then he picked up two more pieces, put them away himself, and pushed the rest in front of Xu Rong and the snake girl.

Xu Rong happily put away all the Taoist bones.

Du Qingsha looked at Lu Ye and said, "Don't think that you got too little. The distribution of spoils depends on the effort you put in when killing the enemy. If you don't put in much, you will get less!"

"I understand." Lu Ye nodded. He basically did not take any action in the past few days. His role was just a bait. It was already good enough to get two pieces of Taoist bones.

Although Du Qingsha also divided it into two pieces, the quality of her two pieces was undoubtedly better because there was more Taoist power remaining in them.

Dao bones must be refined in time, because the longer the time is, the more the Dao power contained in them will dissipate. Therefore, once a part of the spoils have been accumulated, they must be distributed quickly to avoid waste. At the same time, the cultivator also needs to use this to recover himself.

Xu Rong stood up happily while hugging the snake girl, and called Lu Ye, "Brother, do you want to come with us?"

"What?" Lu Ye looked up and looked at him in confusion.

Xu Rong raised his hand and patted the snake girl's round buttocks, grinning and saying, "Life and death are unpredictable, so enjoy yourself while you can!"

The snake girl also threw a coquettish glance at Lu Ye, stretched out her snake-like tongue, licked her red lips, and looked very seductive.

Lu Ye's eyes couldn't help but twitch, and he declined politely: "Thank you for your kindness."

"Hahaha, it's okay. We can have a good exchange of ideas in the future if there's a chance!" Xu Rong laughed, hugged the snake girl and walked in one direction, and soon disappeared.

It was a long time after they left, but Lu Ye still hadn't recovered. He couldn't help but ask, "Captain, aren't they... a couple?"

Du Qingsha had a normal expression: "So what if we are Taoist couples? The starry sky is about to be destroyed, and no one knows when they will die. Why should we have so many concerns? The extinction of human nature and the collapse of ethics are just trivial matters compared to the future of the starry sky."

Lu Ye frowned and remained silent.

The current situation of this one starry sky is the future of the Wanxianghai starry sky. Will the Wanxianghai starry sky become so chaotic one day in the future?

He doesn't know.

Looking up at Du Qingsha, Lu Ye asked, "What about you, Captain?"

"Me?" Du Qingsha curled her lips, "I just want to kill all those Xingyuan monsters!"

This is the normal reaction, Lu Ye nodded secretly.

Unexpectedly, Du Qingsha changed the subject: "Actually, I have one thing... two things that I'm curious about." Without waiting for Lu Ye to speak, she asked directly: "You are obviously only at the early stage of the Divine Realm, how did you build your foundation?"

She has always wanted to ask Lu Ye this question, but she never had the chance.

Lu Ye shook his head and said, "I haven't established the foundation of Taoism!"

Du Qingsha's expression became extremely shocked: "You haven't established the foundation of Taoism? Then how can you control the power of Taoism?" And it's not just ordinary control. Through previous tests, Lu Ye is at least a cultivator of the third level.

This is an ability that only the Star Abyss monsters have. There has never been such an example among the Starry Sky Monks.

Of course Lu Ye couldn't explain it, so he could only say: "I don't know either, maybe I have a special physique."

Du Qingsha frowned, looking skeptical. If Lu Ye did not have the unique aura of the aliens from the Star Abyss, she would have really suspected that Lu Ye came from the Star Abyss.

"What's the second thing?" Lu Ye changed the subject.

Du Qingsha came back to her senses: "Why is your origin a mystery? At this stage, the origin of any cultivator can be traced, and it will be fully recorded when it is registered. I have never seen someone like you in the records."

Lu Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Captain, you can ask the fort master about this matter. He knows it very well."

After all, it is difficult to say that he and Jiuyan came from another starry sky. As the captain of the hunting camp, Du Qingsha should be able to contact the lord of the Thunder War Fortress. If the lord is willing to tell her, he will naturally tell her.

"Chen Wulei..." Du Qingsha murmured, and then glanced at Lu Ye thoughtfully: "It seems that you have a great background."

Otherwise, how could a big shot like the castle lord be involved?

Then he became a little puzzled. If Lu Ye was really from a powerful background, why would he need his recommendation?

Lu Ye did not explain. He held the two pieces of Dao Bones that he had been given and activated the power of the Talent Tree to refine them. Soon, a few more strands of Dao Power appeared on the leaves of the Talent Tree, and it seemed that the number would break through the hundred again.
