Originally, the major cultivation sects planned to set off on their own, but for some reason, the imperial court suddenly changed their minds.

Unexpectedly, at the expense of a huge amount of money, he used the heaven-level spirit weapon Yuxu Yunzhou, which can only be used in the national war, to escort them in a unified manner, and delayed the time of departure.

This Imperial Void Cloud Boat can withstand the attack of the Seventh Heaven Great Master, and can carry 10,000 people, and can travel thousands of miles a day, the only fly in the ointment is that the energy consumed is too great.

At least three masters of the Great Master Realm need to rotate daily to provide aura.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of national weapon is never easy to use.

The disciples of the various major sects were both surprised and a little uneasy, they were only a hundred people, and the reason was just a battle for the order of the nine major sects in the world.

Such a trivial matter, Tianqian used to send resources and open a secret realm, and now it is even more grand.

They are so unconfident in their hearts, after all, they are useless.

Only the heads of the various sects know that this battle of the nine gates also involves the struggle for the ownership of the armillary sphere.

After all, this matter is very important, and the imperial court has long ordered that this matter will not be made public for the time being.

So the vast majority of disciples are still in the dark.

The reason for this is also a helpless move, the vast majority of monks treat mortals like mustard, and if they want to fight for the sake of a group of mortals, I am afraid that they will reluctantly agree, but in fact, they will not be able to work.

This class concept has long been ingrained, and many people who were originally from mortal backgrounds have completely severed ties with their worldly parents even after embarking on cultivation.

How could such a merciless person risk his life for other mortals.

……

However, these days, the intelligence agencies of the entire imperial court are completely crazy, and the intelligence group composed of several other branches headed by the Night Duty Division has begun to operate at full capacity.

Every day, various information is gathered to the Imperial Capital Headquarters through hidden channels.

Although Han Chengyan was also a cultivator of the Martial Dao Triple Heaven, he was overloaded for several days in a row, which made him unbearable.

"No, my head is about to explode in the past few days, what the hell is going on, why did you suddenly ask to check this information?"

He has been on duty in the night division recently, so naturally he doesn't know the conversation between his father and Mo Yu.

However, the information gathered is also a little shocking.

In the past few years, Xia Yuan and Qingque have also happened a lot of things one after another.

It wasn't obvious when it wasn't counted, but once the information was aggregated, it was really discovered that something was wrong.

In just three years, the number of mortals who died for various causes exceeded five million.

And they are mainly old, weak, sick and disabled, and they are usually still a village or a town of this kind of large-scale death.

Moreover, these accidents were only hastily recorded in the end, and there was no much accountability afterwards.

This is very intriguing...

Eighty percent of the dead were old, weak, sick and disabled, which is too much of a coincidence, and the time of death is relatively too concentrated, mainly gathered in the year before last.

Even more coincidentally, many of the locations where these accidents occurred were repeated, with a number of deaths just a few months ago and another death a few months later.

To say that there is no problem with this is the ghost.

The reason why I didn't pay attention to these things before was because after all, it wasn't people from their Tianqian Kingdom who died, and they were all mortals, so naturally the attention was much lower.

"Participate in Wei Gong." The voice of a guard was heard outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Wei Wudi, who was wearing a green shirt, walk in.

"How's it going?" Wei Wudi didn't say anything politely, and asked bluntly.

Han Chengyan also put away the previous look of being almost exhausted, and replied seriously:

"According to the current intelligence statistics, in the past three years, a lot of things have indeed happened in Xia Yuan and Qingque, especially the number of mortal deaths is a bit strange, and the deaths are mainly old, weak, sick and disabled, the year before last alone, more than five million people died for various reasons unknown."

Wei Wudi's brows furrowed, Han Fengtian had revealed the situation to him, and he was also skeptical of Mo Yu's guess.

But the results of this information are now making him have to be vigilant.

"Is it a mass death, or a single death?"

Wei Wudi asked a key question, if these people all died alone, then it was fine, if not...

"There are dozens of people, and there are nearly 10,000 people." Han Chengyan answered honestly.

Wei Wudi's always calm face couldn't help but show a hint of surprise, and a little anger.

The eyes that looked at Han Chengyan and the others also became more severe.

So many people have died, and now I know how this information is done, aren't mortals human?

Day by day, I know how many cultivators only pay attention to those cultivators, and at least ninety percent of the people in this world are mortals.

But now it was useless to say any more, Wei Wudi could only hold back his temper and continued:

"Bring me the map of the two countries, I need you to mark the time and place of each large number of mortal deaths."

He vaguely felt that this time he was really right by Mo Yu, but he still had to wait for him to verify it finally.

A group of night guards, including Han Chengyan, hurriedly found the map and marked them one by one according to the information they had gathered before.

Before, they were just aggregating the information, and they didn't think it was strange.

But when they marked the places of death on the map, everyone's faces changed.

Even the scheming Wei Wushu was speechless for a long time when he looked at the map.

……

On the other side, however, in the library of the college.

A group of disciples led by Xuruo Gu were also constantly flipping through various ancient books, trying to find more records about the sacrifice of the Divine Capital Kingdom.

It's just that it's too old, and it's been going through turmoil for nearly a thousand years.

As a result, many ancient books and documents have been mutilated, and even though the academy library claims to have the largest collection of books in the world, not much useful information has been found in just a few days.

"Chief, I found a note." A disciple said excitedly.

Xu Ruogu hurriedly leaned over, carefully picked up the ancient book, and read it word for word.

He read the record more than five times, and some of the handwriting in this record had been worn out to the point that he could not read clearly, but in light of the context, he probably knew the meaning of the record.

It turned out that in the year 325 of the Shen Yuan calendar, there was also an abnormal disaster, and it was also the first time that the armillary sphere really played its role.

At that time, the disaster spread very widely, and at that time, when many monks with advanced cultivation were helpless, the great sacrificial wine at that time found the armillary sphere from somewhere, and by worshipping the heavens, the disaster was really lifted.

But it is not a group of people who hold cattle and sheep and light incense to worship.

The living beings sacrifice to the sky, they sacrifice to the sky, and they want their lives.

But the rest of the content about how to sacrifice to the heavens and how many lives were sacrificed is impossible to see.

Xu Ruogu's eyes were red, and he finally found a clue, but it stopped abruptly.

"Keep looking, I don't believe in the library of Nuoda, and I can't find a more detailed record."
