Mortal: Fight monsters and upgrade, I will enjoy immortality!

Since the place where Ye Ming and his friends are currently located is called the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, there are naturally many monsters and ancient beasts.

Not long after Fang Yi set off, Ye Ming waved his sleeves, and suddenly, three rays of silver, red and black light flashed, and the Thunder Beast, Fire Whisker and Demon Light appeared.

"Friend Huo, Friend Mo, please come with my spirit beast and kill the ancient Mahayana beast in the center of this mountain range." Ye Ming said politely.

"Hey, no problem." Mo Guang and Huo Xuzi said without hesitation, and then disappeared in a flash.
These two creatures from the fairyland now no longer feel superior when facing Ye Ming.

Over the past three hundred years, they have witnessed Ye Ming's ruthlessness and cruelty countless times, and have also seen Ye Ming's true strength. Now they are completely convinced of Ye Ming.

The thunder beast incarnation flapped its four wings without saying a word, and with a low thunder rumble, its body turned into a silver line and disappeared into the void.

Then, Ye Ming closed his eyes slightly, released his powerful spiritual power, and began to search the area carefully.

If the cultivators of the human and demon races want to practice in seclusion here, they must of course eliminate the threat of ancient beasts in this area.

Otherwise, how can I retreat with peace of mind?

No matter where you are, cultivation exists in the form of a pyramid.

Within this area of ​​one or two hundred thousand miles, the first thing Ye Ming discovered was thousands of auras equivalent to the Nascent Soul and God Transformation stages.

After a careful distinction, he sensed two auras equivalent to the fusion stage and a dozen auras around it equivalent to the late refining stage.

There is no need to worry about those in the Nascent Soul stage. As long as you release the aura of the Mahayana level, they naturally won't dare to approach.

Although those who are in the state of fusion and refining emptiness generally won’t get close to you, it is still better to eliminate them just in case.

So Ye Ming turned his head slightly and called out, "Hu Jun."

As soon as he finished speaking, a large man in brocade clothes stood out from the crowd behind him. He had tiger eyes, a bushy beard, an extraordinary bearing, and possessed the cultivation level of the peak of the middle stage of the fusion.

"Ancestor Ye, please give me your instructions!" The big man came in front of Ye Ming and bowed respectfully.

"Take a few fellow Taoists to these places and kill the ancient beasts there. These are their hiding places." Ye Ming threw a jade slip that he had just carved to the big man.

"Yes, ancestor!"

The big man took the jade slip without saying a word, and then shouted a few names to the crowd.

Immediately, five or six combined cultivators flew out, and after a brief exchange with Hu Jun, they shot out in a certain direction with their light of escape.

Ye Ming looked at the backs of several people and smiled slightly. He remembered that in the original novel, the next Mahayana cultivator of the human race was named Hu Jun. He wondered if it was the person in front of him.

As for Hu Jun, he had a solid foundation in cultivation, so he had a high chance of breaking through to the late stage this time. After thousands of years, it was not impossible for him to become a Mahayana cultivator.

"Let's go!" After a change of thought, Ye Ming waved his hand and led the team to move forward.

Along the way, he released all the aura in his body, and all the ancient beasts that sensed his presence were frightened and trembled and retreated away.

A few days later, thousands of people arrived at the center of the mountain range, among a series of mountains.

There is a large-scale top-grade spiritual vein under the mountains, which was originally occupied by an ancient beast in the Mahayana period. However, this ancient beast was killed by the Thunder Beast two days ago, which not only contributed a large number of rare materials, but also provided Ye Ming with twenty Mahayana Essence Pills.

"Okay, let's retreat here! You can choose the specific retreat location by yourselves. I will be here for the next few years."

"I will obey my ancestor's orders!"

After the order was given, thousands of people dispersed and looked for their favorite places for retreat.

Everyone was extremely excited and rushed to be the first, fearing that they would be overtaken by others.

However, in the world of immortal cultivation, strength is respected after all, and the center with the best spiritual energy is naturally occupied by several cultivators who have achieved the ultimate state of integration.

The others radiate outwards layer by layer according to the strength of their cultivation.

Moreover, many people chose to build caves in the direction they came from, after all, this is the safest place.

But there are also some brave people who dare to go to places that the big troops have not set foot in. As the saying goes, fortune and honor are sought in danger, and maybe going to places that have never been to may give you a great opportunity.

Soon, in this endless mountain range, clusters of various lights lit up. Those were the magic arrays set up by the monks in the places they had chosen for themselves.

The twinkling lights appeared one after another, as if the stars in the sky had moved to the earth, so gorgeous and extraordinary.

For the human cultivators, all of whom have reached the Nascent Soul stage or above, it does not take much time to open up a cave dwelling.

And with a Mahayana ancestor guarding it, the cave's protective formation does not need to be complicated.

Of course, those who are striving to reach the realm of transformation, refining emptiness and fusion are excluded. The celestial phenomena when they advance are not small, especially when refining emptiness advances to fusion, or when fusion advances from the middle stage to the late stage. The celestial phenomena caused by them have a wide range of influence. Therefore, it is still necessary to arrange some magic arrays to cover up the celestial phenomena.

As for advancing to the Mahayana stage, Ye Ming did not hold much hope for this. Among this group of people who came in, in addition to the former Demon King and Human Emperor, there were also several people in the late stage of fusion.

But none of these people in the original book could break through to the Mahayana stage. Although Ye Ming provided some help to a few of them this time, it was still unknown whether they could advance.

However, no matter how complicated the formations set up by the monks were, all the settlement work would be completed after ten days or half a month.

Thousands of people entered their new caves one after another and began to practice in seclusion.

For a moment, this bustling mountain range gradually became quiet again, as if no outsiders had ever been there.

As for Ye Ming's female Taoist companions, those who are currently at a bottleneck period include Ling Yuling, Chen Qiaoqian, Lin Yinping, and Yan Ruyan, who are at the peak of the middle stage of fusion; Yin Yue, who is at the peak of the early stage of fusion; and Yanli, who is at the peak of the middle stage of refining emptiness.

Ye Lingyun is more than halfway into the late stage of fusion, Yuan Yao is more than halfway into the early stage of fusion, and Nangong Wan, Wang Ning, and Ye Ying have all just recently advanced to the fusion stage.

The six people in front plunged into the secret retreat room with various spiritual objects to help them break through the bottleneck.

It is impossible for the five people behind to break through in just a few years because they have not reached the bottleneck yet.

Therefore, these five people were not in a hurry and did not plan to concentrate on seclusion.

Instead, they took turns to stay by Ye Ming's side and practice the dual cultivation technique with him.

……

In this way, time passes day by day.

More than half a year later, there was finally some movement in this silent mountain. Hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators with excellent qualifications finally advanced one after another, causing a series of incarnation phenomena.

After being concealed and weakened by the magic circle, the maximum impact range of these celestial phenomena will not exceed a hundred miles.

Although sometimes several celestial phenomena overlap in a short period of time, they still fail to cause any waves.

Another year passed, and among the thousands of cultivators in the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm, some finally began to advance to the stage of the Void Refining Realm.

Moreover, within more than ten days, twenty or thirty celestial phenomena appeared. With the superposition of these celestial phenomena, the momentum was so great that it naturally attracted some monster beasts and birds, some of which were in the middle and late stages of the Void Refining Realm.

However, Ye Ming did not come out, but asked Ye Lingyun to go out for a few walks to release his own aura.

The monsters and birds that had gathered around were so frightened that they dared not approach. After hesitating for a long time, they retreated to the rear one after another.

In the following year, various celestial phenomena gradually increased, and the vast majority of them were of the advanced Void Refining Realm, with a few of them occasionally interspersed with the advanced Divine Transformation Realm.

When the celestial phenomena were most intensive, there were even more than a dozen celestial phenomena in one day, two or three days, and they were concentrated in a small area.

The superposition of more than a dozen celestial phenomena at the advanced stage of refining emptiness was almost the same as when they advanced to the fusion stage. This time, it finally attracted ancient beasts above the fusion stage, and there were several of them at a time.

However, Ye Ming still did not come out of seclusion. Instead, he sent Ye Lingyun, Nangong Wan, Wang Ning and others out to increase their fighting experience.

With the help of five Taoist companions above the Fusion Stage, the ancient beasts attracted by the celestial phenomena were quickly dealt with. Except for one fox-shaped ancient beast that saw the situation was not good and fled early, the rest were all killed on the spot.

Two and a half years later, some people finally began to advance to the fusion stage.

The calamity caused by the advanced fusion is enough to affect an area of ​​more than a thousand miles. Among them, there are also those who advance from the middle stage of fusion to the late stage, and the impact area is even thousands of miles wide.

Accompanied by the countless vibrations of the vital energy of heaven and earth, the dark clouds covering the entire sky, and the thunder that was bombarding like a devastating thunder, this kind of power is far beyond what can be compared to when advancing to the stage of refining emptiness.

Ye Ming, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room of the cave, raised the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but smile. With his powerful spiritual power now, everything outside the cave was as if he saw it with his own eyes.

Every cultivator in the fusion stage is a valuable resource for the human race. The cultivators in the late fusion stage are the foundation for the future cultivation of the Mahayana stage. He has no choice but to pay attention to them.

Therefore, as soon as Ye Ming sensed the vast celestial phenomenon, he immediately came out of the cave.

Wang Ning, who was on duty outside, came over as soon as she saw Ye Ming: "Husband, you are here."

"Well, hard work."

"I don't have anything here, but Sister Lingyun and the others just sent me a message saying that more and more ancient beasts in the fusion stage are gathering here from all directions, and I guess the deterrent effect won't last long."

Ye Lingyun, Nangong Wan and the other three had already been stationed in the four directions of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest for a long time.

"I understand." Ye Ming nodded, waved his sleeves, and summoned the Thunder Beast, Firebeard and Magic Light again.

Without Ye Ming's instructions, the incarnation and the two spirit servants shot out in three directions. After flashing a few times, they disappeared.

"Will you rest here or come with me?"

"Let's go together. The vitality of heaven and earth here is already in chaos. It's impossible to practice. I might as well stay with you and rest." Wang Ning said after thinking for a while.

Ye Ming nodded slightly, and a golden glow emerged from his body. After he rolled up Wang Ning, the two of them disappeared.

Since all the Mahayana ancient beasts in this mountain range have been killed, the ancient beasts now gathered on the periphery are only in the late stage of fusion at most.

Ye Ming quickly arrived near the ancient beasts. He killed an ancient beast in the late stage of fusion with just a casual strike, and then released his aura.

No matter how low the intelligence of the remaining ancient beasts is, this aura that surpasses that of ordinary Mahayana beasts can still shock them.

Frightened, they retreated like a tide and dared not come any closer.

In the next two years, the monks who were at the bottleneck broke through one after another, either breaking through to a higher realm and achieving a qualitative leap, or advancing to a lower realm and making great progress in their cultivation.

After the last four years, the strange phenomena caused by breakthroughs in realm began to decrease.

At the beginning, there was one every few days, then there was only one every month, and by the last half year of the five-year period, there were basically very few celestial phenomena.

At this point, those who should have made a breakthrough will have made one. For those who haven’t made a breakthrough yet, it is estimated that continuing to retreat will not be very effective.

Sure enough, no celestial phenomena were seen in the entire Wanshou Mountain Range for five or six months.

On this day, as if by appointment, everyone came out of the cave, ending their five-year retreat.

The faces of most people were filled with joy. They took advantage of the extremely rich spiritual energy here and consumed the spiritual objects they had collected before, as well as the treasures bestowed by Ye Ming, and successfully improved their cultivation.

Of course, there are also people who look depressed. These people are unlucky. After using up all their treasures, they are still stuck at the bottleneck in front of them.

This is basically the end of the immortal cultivation life of this kind of people. Even with such excellent conditions during this concentration, they still cannot break through the bottleneck in one fell swoop. It will be even more impossible after they get out.

After leaving their retreat caves, thousands of monks flew towards the center of the mountains without any prior arrangement.

According to the agreement, the Mahayana ancestor will wait there for everyone to return, and only after they have joined up with several other teams of cultivators will they be allowed to explore other places in the Guanghan Realm.

As you get closer to the center, you can see a huge ship as big as a mountain floating high in the sky in the distance.

The restrictions on the ship have been activated, and the entire giant ship is wrapped in a layer of pale white light curtain, with only a portal more than ten meters wide for entry and exit.

At the entrance of the forbidden portal, there was an old man with a long beard holding a book glowing with golden light. He would record something about every person who entered, while looking as if he was shaking his head.

Although Xiang Zhili and Ye Ming came from the same human world, after Ye Ming became the ancestor of the Mahayana Buddhism, he did not come to establish a relationship with him, nor did he take the initiative to tell others about the relationship between him and Ye Ming.

But he is worthy of being one of the very few who have walked out of the cruel environment of the human world. His character, strength, and means are all top-notch, which makes him feel at home among his peers.

A few years ago, Xiang Zhili obtained a great opportunity in the wilderness. His cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and he soon reached the peak of the late stage of refining emptiness.

His strength is almost unmatched among those of the same level. Even against a cultivator in the combined state, he can withstand a few moves and escape with his life.

Therefore, in this meeting where the ancestor was recruiting "disciples", he easily got a spot and followed Ye Ming to the Guanghan Realm.

After four years of seclusion and hard training, Xiang Zhili finally broke through the bottleneck as he wished, advanced to the early stage of fusion, and became a figure at the top of the human pyramid!
