Chapter 839: The Spirit Race’s Plan
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“She escaped.” Wei Yi searched all the passages.

Venerate Xiyue was long gone.

“She has completed her mission is completed. Naturally, she would leave.” Wang Ye compared the two holy spirit statues in his hands.

There were still some differences.

The holy spirit statue that he had obtained earlier was a little bigger.

Although it was only half of it, it contained more mysterious energy.

As for the rest, it was almost the same.

Whether it was the manufacturing process or the patterns on the statue, they were all the same.

“She is very cunning.” Wei Yi looked at the holy spirit statue in Wang Ye’s hand and said, “When we found this place, the holy spirit statue in her hand still had a huge amount of innate energy.”

“She’s afraid of being caught red-handed?” Wang Ye pondered.

“There is another possibility.” Wei Yi said, “The holy spirit statue that contains a huge amount of energy might expose her whereabouts. The Self-Improving Race Alliance is, after all, an alliance of nine powerful races. They are independent. When they encounter danger, the first thing they must consider is self-preservation.”

Wang Ye nodded. “So, the secret of the holy spirit statue was exposed.”

“The innate energy won’t disappear into thin air.” Wei Yi nodded as well.

“Then there are only two possibilities,” Wang Ye said. “Either it was transferred away or it was absorbed.”

The two looked up at the same time.

The strange, giant spiral pattern contained a magical power. It was inexplicably similar to the patterns on the holy spirit statue.

Wang Ye hovered in the air and placed his hand on the spiral.

In an instant, a powerful suction force came over, as if it wanted to quickly drain the origin energy in his body.

Siphon!

Wang Ye instantly activated his talent.

The two powerful suction forces collided, and neither could do anything to the other.

Good heavens. This thing was quite powerful.

“Looks like this is it,” Wang Ye said.

“Humans don’t have such technology,” Wei Yi said.

Wang Ye nodded.

Not only did the human virtual cosmic have the highest level of technology in the human cosmic, but they were also at the peak compared to the other great races.

With the appearance of the four powerful races from the Self-Improving Race Alliance, the answer was obvious.

Just as Shalily had said, the Spirit race was behind this.

Although the Spirit race, which was also a high-dimensional race, had perished in the War of the Divine Spirits, their inheritance had not disappeared. Whether it was their expertise in energy utilization, treasure creation, or their understanding of the high-dimensional cosmic, the Sky, and the Dark race, they still had a firm grasp over them.

What they lacked was a chance to rise again.

Wang Ye and Wei Yi continued to collect evidence.

The only difference was that Wei Yi sent the evidence to the human virtual cosmic to search for relevant information while Wang Ye sent it to Shalily.

He also sent a picture of the holy spirit statue.

Humans might not know what the mysterious spiral was, but the Sky race definitely knew!

Soon, he received a reply.

“Spiritual Energy Transfer Array. This is a special ability that the Spirit race is good at,” Shalily said through consciousness communication. “They can transfer energy to the Spiritual Energy Bank through the Spiritual Energy Transfer Array.”

As expected.

“And what’s the holy spirit statue?” Wang Ye asked.

“It’s the core of the Innate Energy Gathering Array. By setting up an array beforehand,” Shalily said, “It can gather all the innate energy in an area and absorb it.”

“Do different holy spirit statues have different energy restrictions?” Wang Ye asked.

“Yes, it depends on the grade of the Innate Energy Gathering Array,” Shalily said, “It’s not that easy to set it up. It requires preparations beforehand as well as many special materials. Also, the requirements for the area are very high. The upper limit of the Innate Energy Gathering Array’s grade depends on it.”

Wang Ye understood.

No wonder the auspicious light that had appeared on the Rainbow Isles the first time had been five-colored.

The second time, it was only a three-colored auspicious light because there was no time to prepare.

“So what does the Spirit race want to do?” Wang Ye asked.

In his heart, he already had an answer.

“Refine the Hidden Saint Realm. I’ll report this and inform you when there are orders,” Shalily answered succinctly.

“Alright.” Wang Ye had grasped what he wanted to.

The exchange ended.

The reason for the phenomena in the Hidden Saint Realm was basically clear.

The others from Primordial Star and the human virtual cosmic entered. They looked around in shock.

To think there was another world in the underwater cave.

“Senior Brother Wei Yi, did you find Venerate Xiyue?” Zhao Ningxin asked.

Zang Dawei, who was next to her, paused for a moment and looked at Zhao Ningxin in surprise.

“She ran away,” Wei Yi said regretfully.

“It’s actually a good thing. If we can find the direction Venerate Xiyue escaped in, we can follow the clues and find the Self-Improving Race Alliance’s lair,” Wang Ye said.

“Really, Brother Wang Ye?” Zhao Ningxin said in surprise.

“Cough!” Zang Dawei almost choked.

Wang Ye nodded. “This is just a realm where the Self-Improving Race Alliance gathers innate energy. The Spiritual Energy Transfer Array above can quickly absorb innate energy and transfer it to the corresponding Spiritual Energy Bank. That’s where the real headquarters of the Self-Improving Race Alliance is. It’s also the core of their plan.”

Wei Yi was a dazed.

Spiritual Energy Transfer Array? Spiritual Energy Bank?

Why didn’t he know?

He and Wang Ye had just entered this place.

The human virtual cosmic was still collecting information and processing it. They were still filled with question marks.

Yet, the Primordial Star was already done?

“What do you mean? Junior Brother, can you be more clear?” Phoenix Master was still a little confused.

“Alright.” Wang Ye publicized some of the information he had learned from the Sky race.

There was no need to hide this information. It was very important to the human race.

This was especially so for the phenomena in the Hidden Saint Realm. The number of experts sent by humans was the highest.

If they lost these experts, the price would be huge.

Although the Self-Improving Race Alliance was not an enemy, they were definitely not allies either.

There was an uproar as everyone looked at each other.

They were shocked by the ambition of the Self-Improving Race Alliance while they admired Wang Ye.

What was wisdom and courage?

This was it!

In contrast, Wei Yi dimmed.

“Thank you.” Senior Sister Hong Ya looked at Wang Ye with her beautiful eyes. “This information is very useful to humans.”

“Yes. If we don’t know, we’ll be led by the nose by the Self-Improving Race Alliance and completely used by them,” said Lu Yicheng.

Wang Ye said, “This is an open plot. We can’t avoid it. As long as the Self-Improving Race Alliance continues to throw out saint jades and give us treasures, even if we humans don’t fight for them, the devil race, demon race, and other powerful races won’t miss this good opportunity. Besides, humans can’t possibly not fight for them.”

Yes, who didn’t have selfish motives?

Everyone sighed.

They weren’t saints, so they definitely had their own thoughts.

Wang Ye had his thoughts too.

He was very interested in the saint jades that the Spirit race possessed.

Putting aside the treasures for now, the holy spirit statues, especially those that were filled with energy, were too valuable to him who had the Siphon ability!

Of course, if he could destroy the conspiracy of the Self-Improving Race Alliance, not only would he be able to help the humans and the Primordial Star, but he would also be able to make a great contribution to the Sky race.

Apart from obtaining sky merits, it would also help his undercover career flourish.

There were many benefits.

“We have to stop them,” Wei Yi said seriously.

He had a strong sense of justice.

This was Wang Ye’s evaluation of him.

The only reason Wei Yi led his team into the Hidden Saint Realm was purely to destroy the Self-Improving Race Alliance’s conspiracy. As expected of the Sage Emperor’s pupil.

“It’s very difficult to stop them from scattering treasures, to stop the experts of the various races from fighting over those treasures, and to stop the energy from being collected. What we can do is to find the lair of the Self-Improving Race Alliance as soon as possible,” Wang Ye said. “At the same time, we have to try our best to destroy the Innate Energy Gathering Array or snatch the holy spirit statues.”

Everyone nodded. They trusted Wang Ye’s analysis and judgment.

“The Rainbow Isles can be eliminated. The most popular targets are the Holy Spirit Cemetery and the True Treasure Temple Dangerous Land. There are a lot of experts gathered in these two places,” Wei Yi said. “Especially the Holy Spirit Cemetery. Not long ago, a seven-colored auspicious light appeared, and it hasn’t completely disappeared.”

Wang Ye shook his head. “The Holy Spirit Cemetery is most likely not the lair of the Self-Improving Race Alliance. It should be the same as the Rainbow Isles. A higher-grade Innate Energy Gathering Array and Spiritual Energy Transfer Array must have been set up to transfer the absorbed energy.”

“There are already signs of auspicious light in True Treasure Temple Dangerous Land. Could it be there?” Senior Sister Hong Ya asked.

“Probably not.” Wang Ye said, “The auspicious signs are just like foretelling. They only attract experts to go over. Since the Innate Energy Gathering Array is set up in advance, every realm will have auspicious light. The best effect will be that the auspicious lights disappear and appear one after another. This will maximize the resources.”

“What do you mean, Brother Wang Ye?” Zhao Ningxin pursed her lips.

“The more high-profile a place is, the less likely it is to be the lair of the Self-Improving Race Alliance. They’re also afraid of being discovered,” Wang Ye said. “Their plan will be interrupted and their efforts will be ruined. So, they’ll definitely hide in the most hidden place. The ultimate goal of the Self-Improving Race Alliance is to use this enormous innate energy to refine the Hidden Saint Realm.”

“Although I don’t know what method they will use, there are two things I’m sure of. Firstly, this energy is very large. It might be difficult to detect when stored, but once it is used, there will definitely be a strong reaction, including when the Spiritual Energy Transfer Array is used to transfer energy.”

“Secondly, they must be near the core to refine the Hidden Saint Realm. They may not be right at the core, but they must be somewhere not far from the core! Only then can they increase the success rate of the refinement.”

“Therefore, when we eliminate the areas with auspicious light or signs and look for areas with abnormal energy around the core of the Hidden Saint Realm, there is a high chance that we will find the lair of the Self-Improving Race Alliance!”

The eyes of the five from the human virtual cosmic lit up.

Especially Wei Yi, who had cleared up his thoughts.

“Thank you, Brother Wang Ye. When the matter of the Hidden Saint Realm is over, I’ll personally go to Yuanlai City to thank you! There’s no time to lose,” Wei Yi said seriously. “I’ve already reported this to Teacher. We’ll set off immediately!”

“Brother Wei Yi, you’re too polite. It’s what I should do,” Wang Ye said.

Senior Sister Hong Ya and Senior Brother Lu Yicheng nodded.

Zhao Ningxin looked at Wang Ye with some reluctance. Suddenly, she heard a voice transmission and the corners of her mouth curled up.

She was embarrassed and slightly nodded at Wang Ye.

The five of them quickly left.

“What are we waiting for, Junior Brother?” Qi Qiqi pulled Wang Ye’s arm. “Let’s go, let’s go. Let’s go too. Don’t fall behind them!”

“Right, let the Self-Improving Race Alliance know that we are not to be trifled with!” Phoenix Master was surrounded by flames.

Wang Ye looked at the two excited girls and couldn’t help but laugh. “Who said I’m going to find the Self-Improving Race Alliance’s lair?”

Everyone:???
