Ye Xiu did not conceal anything regarding that confident expression, so the four people present could naturally see it clearly.
"Sect Master, Clan Elder Long, if we're only hurrying along, then it won't even take half a month for us to reach the Nine Profound Sect, and there's still about a month's time until the Heaven Sect Competition. It might not be good if we go too early, and if even the Nine Profound Sect isn't prepared yet, then we might cause unnecessary awkwardness if we go over just like this." Ye Xiu reminded.
Now that they had already left the Five Elements' Sect, as long as they did not take the wrong path, it was only a matter of time before they reached the Nine Profound Sect.
That was why, if they were to head there now, it would be too early. The location of the competition wasn't set for too long, so it was normal that they wouldn't be ready for half a month.
After all, the preparation time was around a month. Normally, no sect would pile up a month's worth of work to complete within a week.
"Ye Xiu, what do you mean?"
Regarding Ye Xiu's words, Ling Zhen revealed an expression of doubt. It was clear that he was not clear what the other party wanted to do.
They had already left the sect. Could it be that they would have to wait for a few more days?
The reason he had left the sect one month earlier was naturally because he was worried that there would be some problems on the way here and that he would be delayed.
If they were late to the competition, the other sects wouldn't wait. When the time came, their qualifications would naturally be revoked.
It wasn't easy to get three slots, and that was with the help of Profound Sky Sect. If they were cancelled because they were late, that would be too much of a pity.
Therefore, Ling Zhen and Long Yazi decided to set off earlier so that they could avoid wasting the opportunity that they had gotten when they were late.
But now, Ye Xiu felt that they had left too early, wasn't this a bit too contradictory?
"Sect Master, can the two of you hide your auras? If we meet any Profound Beast or tyrants along the way, we can also move our muscles a little." Ye Xiu said.
Along the way, neither Ling Zhen nor Long Yazi restrained their auras, and it was as if they were releasing them intentionally.
Just now, Ye Long had warned Ye Xiu that there were Profound Beast near them, but they had been scared away by Long Yazi's powerful aura.
It was also because of this that Ye Xiu would make such a sound, because if there were no Profound Beast s interfering, they would have arrived at the Nine Profound Sect much earlier than expected.
And if they were to cultivate quietly in the Nine Profound Sect, then it would be better to fight while walking.
Actually, Ye Xiu still had another worry, and that was that he was carrying a Nine Profound Exquisite Pagoda. If he stayed in the Nine Profound Sect for too long, it would be hard for him to be exposed.
Once they were exposed, it would be terrible for him and his Five Elements' Sect.
If it wasn't for the fact that his Sky Sect Site had attracted him quite a bit, coupled with the fact that he was able to be together with Leng Yue, he definitely wouldn't have taken this risk.
Therefore, the shorter one could stay in the Nine Profound Sect, the safer it would be for Ye Xiu.
"Ye Xiu, we just don't want the Profound Beast or anyone else to disturb our journey. After all, it's our first time going to Nine Profound Sect. Ling Zhen explained.
Regarding Ling Zhen's explanation, Ye Xiu was naturally clear, but he had his own reasons, so he could only continue to persuade him: "Sect Leader, if we were to reach Nine Profound Sect in advance, then what are we going to do in the next few days? If we are just quietly waiting for the competition to begin, then it would be better for us to walk and fight.
Ye Xiu's cultivation could be felt by the few people present. He had already reached the peak of the Profound Pill Realm, so the more battles he experienced, the more useful it would be for his breakthrough.
Especially since Ye Xiu had already experienced a period of quiet training, so actual combat was still very important to him.
In regards to Ye Xiu's words, this time, Ling Zhen did not refute. Instead, he sank into deep thought.
No matter what was said, Ye Xiu's cultivation was just too low. Although there was no limit to the cultivation level of the participants in the competition, Ling Zhen guessed that the cultivation levels of the participants would not be lower than their Great Perfection of Profound Infant Stage.
In other words, Ye Xiu's cultivation was definitely the lowest among all the profound practitioners at the perfection-stage of the Profound Pill Realm.
Although Ling Zhen did not doubt Ye Xiu's strength, if his cultivation could rise from the peak of the Profound Pill Realm to the peak of the Profound Pill Realm, then Ye Xiu's strength would definitely reach a whole new level.
The more powerful one was, the higher the chances of obtaining victory.
It was precisely because of this reason that Ling Zhen no longer opposed it this time.
As for Long Yazi, Xu Zifeng and his suggestion, they had no objections either.
Indeed, getting to the Nine Profound Sect too early was not good, they were unfamiliar with the place, and their Five Elements' Sect was merely a sect that had just become a sect, what if they were looked down upon?
Xu Zifeng and Yan Xiang were both at the genius level, if they were looked down by others, they would definitely feel bad, and if they couldn't help but make a move and cause a conflict, then there would be a huge problem.
Therefore, towards Ye Xiu's suggestion, the two of them did not have any disagreements, furthermore, regardless of whether it was Xu Zifeng or Yan Xiang, they both used swords, and they knew that Ye Xiu's sword techniques were superb, if they could learn a little during this period, it would be of great help to them in the competition.
Just like this, because no one objected, the five people unanimously agreed on this proposal.
Following that, Long Yazi and Ling Zhen retracted all of their Qi. With their cultivation, once they retracted all of their Qi, if Ye Xiu and the other two did not use their eyes to look, they would not be able to sense their existence.
"Ye Long, you should be able to do it now."
Because he could not feel the existence of Long Yazi and Ling Zhen, Ye Xiu asked in his mind.
"Mn, the two of them have completely restrained their auras, this way they probably won't scare the Profound Beast away." Ye Long nodded.
After hearing Ye Long's affirmation, Ye Xiu silently nodded his head, and then the group continued on their journey.
However, even though Long Yazi and Ling Zhen hid their auras, it did not mean that the Profound Beast would take the initiative to come over.
And it was also because of this, after travelling for half a day, the group of five did not even discover the hair on the Profound Beast.
"Ye Long, aren't there any Profound Beast around here?"
Because he had travelled quite a distance and still could not find any traces of Profound Beast, Ye Xiu could not help but ask again.
If the reason why the Profound Beast did not dare to approach was because of Long Yazi and Ling Zhen, then now that they had restrained their auras, if it was according to their auras, then the two of them no longer existed.
But even so, after so long, there were still no Profound Beast around. This was just too strange.
Right now, the group of five had travelled quite a bit, so they were already very far from the Five Elements' Sect. As a result, they should be able to find Profound Beast here, and as for the level, it shouldn't be too high.
The level of Profound Beast was related to the position of the continent they were on, and the closer they got to the mainland, the higher the level of Profound Beast, it was the same as a human expert.
The further they were from the mainland, the lower the human cultivation level would be. On the other hand, the higher the human cultivation level would be.
Of course, this was not absolute, so it was possible to meet powerful humans or Profound Beast far away from the mainland. It was just that the chances were extremely low.
Because if one's cultivation was high, then they wouldn't be interested in people with low cultivation. Even Profound Beast s had the same thoughts.
It was also because of this that human experts and Profound Beast were all in a group, and would stay together with whatever kind of experts they had.
Profound Sky Continent was a world where the strong were respected, so if a strong person was together with a weak person, then it would clearly be dishonorable, and would be very shameful.
Face was something that every powerhouse valued greatly. Some powerhouses would even go all out to gain face for themselves.
"Master, don't even mention it, there really isn't a single Profound Beast around here." Ye Long replied.
"None of the other tiny beings?" Ye Xiu asked softly.
It was normal for a place to have no Profound Beast. After all, the Profound Sky Continent was so huge, so it was impossible for Profound Beast to be present everywhere.
If there was a problem, then it meant that the five of them had entered a dangerous place.
"Master, don't even mention it, we didn't even find a single bug here." Ye Long replied.
If Ye Xiu did not mention this, even Ye Long did not notice this detail. After all, there were small insects everywhere that people were accustomed to, so it was very easy for people to ignore things that people would usually get used to.
"Ye Long, are you sure?" Ye Xiu frowned and asked again.
There weren't even any small life forms like bugs in this area. It was clear that this was a dangerous place, and could even be said to be a lifeless one.
If they continued to venture deeper into such a place, how dangerous would it be?
"Master, I have checked the surroundings. Other than the ones behind you, there are no other signs of life within a kilometer." Ye Long replied.
"What!"
Hearing this, Ye Xiu was shocked, they were still walking further in.
Ye Long said that other than the people behind them, it also meant that there were signs of life not far behind them, which was completely different from the life before them.
"Sect Master, Elder Long, let's not continue any further."
Because this was an important matter, Ye Xiu did not hesitate anymore and immediately called out to the two people in the front.
