Chapter 296: Arrival

He did not choose to expel the Moonlight Curse Seal immediately.

This was because there was a high chance that Moon Fiend could sense the existence of this thing.

Along the way, with a sullen face, Lu Ming returned to the house at the Frost Lake. As soon as he walked into the house, Lu Ming restrained the coldness and killing intent on his face and returned to his usual stoic expression.

“Brother Lu, you’re back?”

Roxin greeted him with a smile, but she did not notice anything unusual on Lu Ming’s face.

Lu Ming nodded and asked, “Did anything happen during this period of time?”

Roxin replied, “No, Brother Lu, what about you?”

“I had some issues to deal with.”

After thinking for a moment, Lu Ming added, “In short, I need to go to the Eternal Clan as soon as possible. It’s not safe to stay here for now…”

“Get the rest of the people here, I need to discuss something important with all of you.”

The five of them gathered at the dining table and Lu Ming began to tell them.

He naturally would not mention the entanglement between him and Moon Fiend. He mainly focused on the situation in the core region of the Hundred Thousand Mountains and told them that this place was probably about to become the main battlefield of the two factions.

“It might not be long before the alliance army of the Undead Clan and the Insect Clan attacks the core area of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Once they start fighting, the scale will not be small. There might even be Divine Spirit Realm experts attacking.”

Once Divine Spirit Realm experts got involved, the range of impact would be too large.

Although Frost Lake was quiet, the area would no longer be safe.

“Moreover, 1 have some private matters that I need to rush to the Eternal Clan as soon as possible.”

At this point, Lu Ming looked at Roda and asked, “What do you think?”

When Roda heard this, he did not think too much about it and simply said, “Since Brother Lu has said so, it means that we definitely can’t stay here any longer.”

“I’ll go back to the Eternal Clan with Brother Lu.”

With their decision made, the matter was settled.

Everyone quickly packed their belongings, and about half an hour later, they arrived at the edge of the Frost Lake.

Roda took the lead, diving into the lake.

At the bottom of the Frost Lake, there was a mineral known as the Ice Crystal Stone.

This mineral was essential for various body forging techniques. It had a chilling nature and constantly emitted cold air.

This kept the water temperature under the Frost Lake to be well below freezing —about -10 degrees Celsius, but the lake strangely did not freeze.

Of course, for Lu Ming and the other four of them, the temperature of -10 degrees Celsius did not affect them.

Originally, there were also some exotic beasts in Frost Lake.

However, after the calamity of the zombie beasts erupted, the exotic beasts in the Frost Lake might have sensed danger and fled from the lake, not knowing where they went.

This made the journey of the five of them relatively smooth.

After traveling underwater for several hours, Roda, who was leading the way, abruptly turned his body and came to the front of a deep tunnel. He gestured briefly to signal the others and entered first.

The water tunnel was long and narrow, and the currents surged.

As they made their way through the tunnel, the journey took them several more hours until they reached the end of the water tunnel.

As Roda was the first to resurface, the others followed suit and found themselves in a dark underground space.

They took out light stones to illuminate the path ahead as Roda continued to lead the way. As they walked, he said,

“The rest of the journey will be quite lengthy and complex. We’ll need to enter the water from time to time to find our way. We’ll be traveling underground and through water for about a month before we reach the Qinghe Province of the Eternal Clan.”

Although the journey was long, the process was not particularly dangerous.

This was because this path was hidden and convoluted. If not for a coincidence, it would be nearly impossible to discover the existence of this path.

At Lu Ming’s signal, the five of them pressed on at full speed.

Apart from breaks for rest and sustenance, most of their time was spent on the journey. Lu Ming had already formulated a plan on how to handle the situation with Moon Fiend and wanted to act as quickly as possible.Otherwise, delay would lead to changes.

On the way, Lu Ming also gathered some information about the Hundred Schools of Philosophy from Roda.

The Hundred Schools of Philosophy were well-known within the Eternal Clan.

The so-called Hundred Schools of Philosophy were actually similar to the combination of advanced universities during the Blue Planet era.

The Aeonian territory was vast and had a large population. The education system was also quite developed.

There were countless high and low level academies within the Eternal Clan. Apart from scientific and cultural knowledge, they mainly taught extraordinary knowledge.

As for the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, it was a benefit community formed by the top hundred extraordinary schools of the Eternal Clan.

This place sent a huge number of talents to the Eternal Clan. Ancient Realm experts were also common.

As for these graduate students, they took root in the various departments of the Aeonians. Some of them further grew and became stronger, becoming quasi-deities and even reaching the Divine Spirit Realm. In turn, they would provide more support to the Hundred Schools of Philosophy.

This development model was undoubtedly benign and stable.

This led to the Hundred Schools of Philosophy gradually growing into a behemoth that could not be ignored within the Aeonians.

“Just on the surface, there are three gods guarding the sect.”

“The main sect master, Jiu Han, the deputy sect master, Xiang Yi.”

“Not to mention the external connections of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy… There are already as many as seven gods who graduated from the Hundred Schools of Philosophy but are not listed in the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. There are also many quasi gods.”

Overall, the power of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy was quite shocking.

Although it did not belong to the officials of the Eternal Clan, it was not inferior to powerful departments like the military’s Sky Monitoring Bureau.

This news made Lu Ming heave a sigh of relief.

He asked for more details, and Roda provided them.

The plan in his mind was gradually perfected with the help of the information.

Twenty days later, on the 625th day of the Black Mist Calendar.

When Lu Ming, Roda, and the others crawled out of a particular lake, they had not only arrived at the Qinghe Province of the Eternal Clan, but Lu Ming also had a more detailed plan in mind.

“I’m going directly to the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. What about the rest of you?”

Lu Ming asked the four of them, and Roda looked troubled.

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to accompany you this time… 1 want to return to my hometown and check the situation there.”

All good things must come to an end.

Lu Ming had important matters to attend to, and Roda had his own things to do.

Lu Ming could only smile gently and said, “Then, take care. We’ll part ways here, but we’ll meet again someday.”

On the other hand, Quan Chao immediately stood by Lu Ming’s side.

It was evident that he had chosen to follow Lu Ming wherever he went.

Roxin was a little conflicted, but between Lu Ming and Roda, she still chose her biological brother.

Moreover, it was not a life and death farewell…

“Keep in touch, Brother Lu! Don’t forget to keep me updated!”

“Visit me whenever you’re free!”

“Or maybe, once my brother’s matters are settled, I’ll go to the Hundred Schools of Philosophy to look for you!”

Roxin kept muttering for more than ten minutes, and Lu Ming could only rub her head gently.

“I promise.”

“I’ll definitely come back.”

He whispered softly, but his gaze subtly flickered toward the direction of the Hundred Thousand Mountains..
