Chapter 2281 Became Clean

The core of Boundless City was not difficult to find, as it was located in a hall in the very center of this huge city. Ziying began to refine it, and it was not too difficult. According to her own estimation, it should take less than a month to successfully refine it.

Then she will be able to control this boundless city and bring it to a beautiful place.

While Ziying was busy, Lu Ye was not idle either.

He first went to the many bone pools and informed many bone cups about the demise of the Beastmen of Wubian City. He thought that the Bone Cups would be ecstatic after hearing the news. After all, without the oppression of those Beastmen, they would be able to regain their freedom and would no longer live as miserably as before.

Unexpectedly, the reactions of all the bone cups were very indifferent, even cold.

Even after knowing this news, and Lu Ye personally telling them that no one would bully them anymore, the bone pots still had no intention of leaving the bone pool...

Many of them even looked dazed, as if they had suddenly lost the direction of their lives.

Lu Ye sighed in his heart, knowing that this was because the human race in Wubian City had been oppressed for too long. They had long been accustomed to their fate and even more accustomed to their identity as bone cups. Among the many races in Wubian City, the status of the human race was the lowest, like livestock. Suddenly there was such a huge change, and they simply could not adapt.

Change cannot be achieved overnight. It will probably require efforts of several generations or even longer.

Lu Ye did not force the bone cups and left here quickly. Now that the Rong Dao in Wubian City was completely destroyed and all the people who entered the Dao had fled, there would not be much danger even if these bone cups stayed here.

In front of a portal, Lu Ye made a brief exploration and stepped in. His vision blurred and he found himself in a world.

This realm is the one hidden within the Boundless City. It is also the place where the human race survives. The beastmen of the Boundless City keep countless humans in this realm like livestock to provide them with a means of survival and practice. However, those who are qualified to enter the Tao will be cultivated, and then sent to the bone pool to practice their special method and turn into bone cups.

If we only look at the environment, this realm is quite favorable, with birds singing and flowers blooming everywhere, beautiful mountains and clear waters, and even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely rich. Such a realm is indeed very suitable for the growth of low-level cultivators.

Therefore, it is not only humans who live here, but also creatures of other races, but these creatures are responsible for supervising the human race.

The turmoil in Wubian City did not affect this realm because the news did not reach here.

Lu Ye stayed in this realm for a few days and witnessed many horrific tragedies.

Because the ultimate goal of Wubian City to keep the human race in captivity is to raise more bone cups, entering the Tao is the most basic condition. In this realm, humans who are qualified and have the potential to enter the Tao will have no problem surviving. The monks in charge of managing the human race are even willing to provide the best practice environment for such people. Even if the status of these humans is still low, at least they don't have to worry about anything else.

But the human race who were not qualified to enter the Tao did not have such a good experience.

It is normal for young and beautiful women to become playthings, and strong men can barely survive by doing odd jobs. Apart from that, most people have only one mission in their lives - to reproduce!
Because of the need to nourish the bone bowl, the population base of the human race is very important, so the beastmen of Wubian City attach great importance to this.

The foreign races that manage the human race will imprison many people in one place, and use secret techniques or drugs to stimulate their most primitive desires day and night. When a woman becomes pregnant, she will be taken out to nurture the fetus. After giving birth, there will be someone to raise and cultivate the baby. Those who give birth generally only have two months to rest and recuperate, and then they will be sent back.

There are more than 2,000 such places in the entire realm that are specifically used to imprison humans and allow them to reproduce, and each of them holds at least 3,000 humans!
Many humans died in there.

Even if they are not dead, once the women lose their fertility and the men are physically unable to support themselves, they will all be burned.

Lu Ye saw with his own eyes a large number of emaciated and naked humans gathered in a big pit. Some foreign monks activated their secret techniques and flames swept through. In just three breaths, they were all turned into charred bones.

After countless thousands of years, humans have gotten used to their livestock-like status, and other races have gotten used to humans' humbleness.

Just like the numbness of those who have entered the Dao, this comes from the deepest root.

In just a few days, Lu Ye killed all the foreigners in the entire realm!
These foreigners, regardless of gender, age, or level of cultivation, deserve to die one by one.

Now only the human race is left in the realm. As for where they will go in the future, Lu Ye has no way to make a decision for them. After Ziying refines the Boundless City and sends it to Banlan, the human war alliance will have a headache.

Ziying was still refining the core of Wubian City, so Lu Ye stood by to protect her.

Compared with Banlan, the quality and level of Wubian City are much lower. But even so, it is not easy for Ziying to refine it.

From this we can see that if Jiuying had not cooperated in secret, it would have been impossible for Youdie alone to refine the colorful core. After all, in terms of strength level, Ziying and Youdie are almost the same.

Although it is not easy, Ziying does not need to spend too much energy, so she even has the energy to chat with Lu Ye while refining.

The two of them had a lot of discussions about the issue of harmony.

Although Lu Ye has only just begun to learn Taoism, he is confident that he will reach this step in the future. After communicating with Ziying now, he will naturally gain something and can avoid taking detours in the future.

The two also made some plans for the future of Wubian City. When Ziying heard Lu Ye mention the miserable fate of the human race in that realm, he was filled with indignation. He was very happy when he learned that Lu Ye had slaughtered all the foreign races in that realm.

Just like Lu Ye's plan, she was not going to interfere too much in the future of the many human beings in Wubian City. When the time comes, she would just send them to Banlan and let the War Alliance handle it.

"Sister Ying, I have a secret technique that may help you improve your success rate in achieving the He Dao." While chatting, Lu Ye suddenly remembered something.

Youdie is obsessed with the burning power of the talent tree, just to get benefits from it. After being burned by the talent tree, her soul has become more refined and condensed. For the insect queen who mainly cultivates the soul, this is a rare opportunity.

Ziying also wants to try to achieve the Dao, so Lu Ye will certainly not be reluctant to lend her a helping hand.

"Then can I practice?" Ziying suddenly became interested.

"No need to practice, I will be the one in charge of this secret technique, Sister Ying, give me your hand."

Ziying did not doubt it and immediately stretched out a hand. Lu Ye held her wrist and silently activated the power of the talent tree.

The next moment, Ziying's expression brightened, because she could clearly feel a gentle force coming from her wrist, like a warm current, quickly flowing into every corner of her body.

This warm feeling is very comfortable.

She didn’t feel any benefits for the time being, but she believed that Lu Ye would not lie to her, let alone harm her.

As time passed, Ziying's expression gradually became shocked.

The power of the innate tree's burning force was revealed. No matter how talented she was, and how much she had practiced to the peak of the Dao of Fusion, there were still a lot of impurities left in her body. However, these impurities were very hidden, and even she could not detect them, let alone remove them.

But under the flow of this gentle force, those impurities had nowhere to hide and were all burned.

Ziying felt that his body had become much clearer.

Not only that, her aura was also gradually changing.

It took a full half month before Lu Ye stopped.

Ziying sensed it silently and was amazed: "Brother Ye, why do I feel like I have become..." She didn't know how to describe this change for a moment, and after a while she said: "Becoming clean?"

"Sister Ying has been in the Colorful World since she was born, so naturally she doesn't know the situation in the starry sky. In fact, the aura of the starry sky cultivators is so pure before they enter the Starry Abyss. It's just that as they survive and practice in the Starry Abyss, they will gradually be contaminated by the aura of the Starry Abyss."

Ziying was startled: "Is there anything wrong with this Xingyuan aura?"

Lu Ye shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I've never found anything bad about it." As he spoke, he smiled and said, "Sister Ying's current state is generally called the Lost One, which is the state of the creatures who have just entered the Star Abyss after the starry sky was shattered. The creatures in the Star Abyss are very interested in the Lost Ones."

He couldn't help but think of himself in the past. When his aura was revealed, it was as dazzling as a lighthouse in the dark night, attracting many star creatures from all directions to attack.

"Why are they interested in the Lost?" Ziying asked in confusion.

"I don't know either. Maybe it's just because I don't fit in, or maybe it's just because common logic holds that cultivators who just walked out of the starry sky are very fragile and easy to bully."

Ziying understood, but became curious again: "Brother Ye, since you can make my breath so clean, why is your own breath not like this?"

Lu Ye took out a bead from his arms. The moment the bead left his body, his aura suddenly changed and became clean.

"This evil tribe was given to me by a senior. It can help me cover up and avoid some troubles."

This was a gift from Duan Bo when he left Qing Palace. He has been carrying it with him for the past few years. Otherwise, he would attract attention wherever he goes just because of the different aura.

“Wait until Sister Ying has refined the Boundless City, and I will find some time to help you refine your soul and body. By doing this two-pronged approach, your chances of being promoted to the Dao should be higher.” Lu Ye collected the Hui Clan and kept them close to his body.

Right now Ziying still has to refine the Boundless City, so it’s not easy for his soul to leave his body, so he can only wait.

Ziying looked at him gratefully: "Brother Ye, thank you."

She never thought that Lu Ye could help her so much. It can be said that the greatest gain in her life so far is to accept this younger brother.
