If what Lu Ye says is true, then it truly concerns the survival of the Nine Provinces. As Lu Ye elaborated, the Blood Refinement World is a domain not inferior to the Nine Provinces, and the blood clan ruling this domain treats the human race as Blood Food. In the ideology of the blood clan, humans are the livestock they breed, to be taken and used at will. Once such a domain comes into contact with the Nine Provinces, it would inevitably end in an endless confrontation, leaving no chance for fortune. But such significant matters naturally cannot rely solely on Lu Ye's words to be believed; some convincing evidence must be presented. The best would be to let them enter the Blood Refinement World now and witness it themselves. Of course, Lu Ye cannot achieve such a feat; he himself cannot enter the Blood Refinement World at the moment, but he has other preparations. "I have a treasure named the Heaven Reflecting Mirror. When activated, it can observe millions of miles away. Please take a look, esteemed seniors." As Lu Ye spoke, he brought forth a mirror-like treasure. This treasure is indeed called Heaven Reflecting Mirror, and it is at the spirit treasure level. Lu Ye exchanged considerable battle merit for it from the Hall of Battle Merits. Its function allows it to reveal scenes from afar; as for the distance... its limit is several tens of thousands of miles, millions of miles is simply impossible. However, with Number Nine assisting in secret, observing millions of miles can be easily achieved. Actually, even without this Heaven Reflecting Mirror, merely relying on Number Nine's ability would suffice to showcase scenes from millions of miles away and thereby gain everyone's confidence. But as Number Nine previously stated, Heaven's Augury is lofty and mysterious. Should it reveal itself before people, cultivators might lose their sense of reverence. Thus, Number Nine is not suitable to expose itself in public. It's best to let Nine Provinces cultivators maintain their reverence for Heaven's Augury in the depths. While speaking, Lu Ye had already brought out the Heaven Reflecting Mirror. The smooth mirror surface slowly floated into the air, expanding in the wind, instantly transforming into a giant mirror. The surface did not reflect light, appearing blurred like undulating waves. "Activating this treasure is difficult. I ask the esteemed seniors to lend a hand and collectively inject spirit force into it!" Lu Ye shouted again. The actual situation is not nearly as troublesome, but allowing everyone to participate personally at this moment enhances its credibility. With Lu Ye first injecting spirit force into the Heaven Reflecting Mirror, several thousand Divine Sea Realm cultivators present also made their moves; instantly, spirit force gathered like streams, forming rivulets. The blurry mirror surface slowly revealed some peculiar images, as if the mirror transformed into an eye standing in stellar space somewhere far from the Nine Provinces, observing that deep stellar space. Unfamiliar celestial bodies appeared in everyone's view, provoking an uproar throughout the crowd. Divine Sea Realm cultivators cannot leave the Nine Provinces, and none has ever experienced the splendor of stellar space. So upon seeing such a scene, even Level 9 cultivators felt their minds tremble, spontaneously generating profound awe and instinctive yearning! The images within the mirror rapidly advanced, guiding the Nine Provinces Divine Sea Realm cultivators to witness further depths, until a certain moment when a massive, radiant celestial body suddenly appeared in the mirror—a gigantic burning fireball. Despite knowing it's separated by millions of miles, everyone couldn't help but feel a burning sensation, as if the next moment they would be burnt alive by the raging flames. Exclamations erupted in a chorus, thousands of eyes fixed on the mirror promptly moved away, with someone shouting, "Lu Yiye, quickly shift the view, that's the sun!" Lu Ye naturally knew that was the sun; he was intentional. To the Nine Provinces Divine Sea Realm cultivators, the stellar space is extremely unfamiliar. Even with the Heaven Reflecting Mirror and Number Nine's assistance, allowing them to witness the depths of stellar space might not fully convince everyone. It's possible some may suspect Lu Ye of using some trickery; the Heaven Reflecting Mirror is his belonging, presenting whatever scenes it wishes would be within Lu Ye's discretion. For cultivators, their understanding of stellar space is largely limited to two celestial bodies: the sun and the moon. These two celestial bodies are the most familiar objects in their consciousness. At this moment, presenting the sight of that massive sun in the Heaven Reflecting Mirror sufficiently proves the image is genuinely from the depths of stellar space, dispelling some doubts in people's minds. Lu Ye adjusted seamlessly, quickly manipulating the Heaven Reflecting Mirror to shift its direction. Only then did the cultivators slowly return their gaze, continuing to fixate on the Heaven Reflecting Mirror, experiencing the numerous shocks brought by the endless stellar space. Until a massive star body suddenly appeared in the Heaven Reflecting Mirror. In their previous observations, most star bodies appeared round, regardless of size, but the star body now appearing in the Heaven Reflecting Mirror was not round. At first glance, it looked more like a giant gourd, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The scene in the mirror was frozen on this star body. Lu Ye's voice followed: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Blood Refinement World I mentioned earlier. It is currently daytime, but if you observe at night in this direction, the brightest star is the reflection of the Blood Refinement World. A few months ago, when I observed it, it was still inconspicuous in the stellar space, but recently it has become brighter. If any of you are accustomed to observing celestial events at night, you must have noticed this anomaly." Immediately, a cultivator from the Divine Sea Realm nodded in agreement: "Indeed, in this direction, a star has undergone significant changes recently. I was previously puzzled by this phenomenon, only to discover it is a domain approaching!" It wasn't just one Divine Sea Realm cultivator who observed this; several did, confirming some truths with their words. "Because it is getting closer, it is becoming brighter. One day, it will collide with the Nine Provinces, spelling a catastrophic disaster for the Nine Provinces!" As Lu Ye spoke, he raised his hand, shrinking the giant Heaven Reflecting Mirror back to its original size, and it flew back into his hand. Observing the stellar space consumes the foundations of the Nine Provinces, so it was not sustainable to continue. Just a short glance consumed years of accumulated resources of the Nine Provinces World. Thousands reluctantly retracted their gaze. This brief observation not only deeply shocked their spirits but also ignited cultivators' innate yearning for the stellar space. Especially the Level 9 cultivators, they could feel that within the vast stellar space, there were things they longed for but could not obtain! "Dear seniors, the great enemy approaches. The Blood Race sees the human race as Blood Food. If they discover the existence of the Nine Provinces, they will certainly not stop. So, to resolve this calamity, we must strike first. The enemy is in the open, we are in the dark, and we have the Righteous Blood Sacred Land rooted within the Blood Refinement World to , a heaven-sent opportunity indeed. But on how to proceed specifically, please, seniors, make the decision together." On the vast square, no one spoke. Those sect cultivators with ancestors already in the Blood Refinement World were eager to rush over to assist the Righteous Blood Sacred Land, but such sects only numbered in the dozens. Across the entire Nine Provinces, the proportion was still too low, and their opinions did not represent the whole of the Nine Provinces. Moreover, contending with an entire domain bears risks far greater than counterattacking the Insect Race Great Secret Realm. Though the Insect Race caused chaos in the Nine Provinces for several years, plunging the populace into misery, they had little spiritual intelligence. With the Nine Provinces cultivators united, they were quickly eradicated without much effort. But the Blood Race in the Blood Refinement World is different. Apart from looking slightly different, they are essentially no different from the human race. Facing the Blood Refinement World means a racial war between humans and the Blood Race, with enormous risks. Such a major decision cannot be made hastily. It wasn't until much later that a voice broke the silence: "Young Friend Lu, you say the Blood Refinement World is approaching the Nine Provinces, and inevitably, the two domains will collide. But the stellar space is vast; the probability of two star bodies colliding is still very small. Most likely, the Blood Refinement World and the Nine Provinces will just brush past each other without any entanglement. If so, why act rashly?" The speaker was not cowardly but wise. Lu Ye's words assumed a massive collision between the two domains, but what if they never intersect? As he said, the stellar space is vast, and the probability of two star bodies colliding is small. Rashly dragging the Nine Provinces into war would not be wise. Many shared this thought but were hesitant to voice it. Lu Ye nodded at these words: "Indeed, as the senior said, the probability of a collision between the Blood Refinement World and the Nine Provinces is small. However, based on current observations, the Blood Refinement World is directly heading towards the Nine Provinces, making some degree of intersection very likely between the two domains. Even if, in the end, they don't intersect, and the Blood Refinement World just passes nearby in the stellar space, for the future of the Nine Provinces cultivation world, we cannot miss this opportunity." "Opportunity? What do you mean by that?" queried the voice. Lu Ye replied calmly: "This brings us to the limitations and bottlenecks of our Nine Provinces cultivation world! Historically, the cultivation world of the Nine Provinces has always revered the Divine Sea. After reaching the Divine Sea Realm, progress in cultivation becomes exceedingly slow until Level 9 is the limit." He turned to the Level 9 cultivators at the forefront: "Seniors, your current cultivation has reached its limit, with no further progress possible. Yet, you must sense that there is a path beyond the Divine Sea, though inaccessible. Historically, many predecessors chose to enter life-or-death seclusion after reaching their limit, hoping to uncover that layer of mystery. To date, none have succeeded. Is it a lack of talent? Or flaws in the cultivation technique? Neither! With the vast resources and talented individuals of the Nine Provinces, it's impossible for so many predecessors to all lack talent. And achieving the Divine Sea suggests that our cultivation techniques are not flawed. The failure to break through beyond the Divine Sea is due to the limitations of our world, the Nine Provinces!"
