"Eight fifth-tier Vermilion Fruit Trees, six fifth-tier Flame Peach Trees, four fifth-tier Crimson Apricot Trees, and two fifth-tier Red Jade Pear Trees, for a total of eighteen fifth-tier spirit fruit trees!"

An excited look appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face. Now he understood why the major powers of the Xuan Chen Realm had all focused their attention on the Endless Void.

The number of treasures nurtured in the endless void is unimaginable; in the outer area of ​​the Shattered Star Mountain Range where this flock of Starfire Sparrows lives alone, there are eighteen fifth-order spirit fruit trees.

Deep within the Shattered Star Mountains live even more powerful Void Beasts, which also means that there are more treasures within.

After suppressing his excitement, Lu Cheng'an picked all the ripe spiritual fruits from the spiritual fruit trees.

There are quite a few of these spirit fruit trees, but the number of fully ripe spirit fruits is not large.

This is because the maturation cycle of a fifth-order spirit fruit tree is quite long, often taking hundreds or thousands of years, or even longer, to mature.

The Starflow Firebirds are quite numerous. Once these fifth-tier spirit fruits ripen, they will soon be devoured by the fifth-tier Starflow Firebirds. It is quite rare that some have been left.

Vermilion Fruit, Flame Peach, and other spiritual fruits are all fire-attribute spiritual fruits. The function of these fire-attribute spiritual fruits is relatively simple; they are all used to enhance a cultivator's cultivation level.

After Lu Cheng'an absorbed all the spirit fruit trees into his own Dao Domain, his gaze fell on the land where the spirit fruit trees grew.

The soil was dark reddish-black in color and contained abundant spiritual energy and some power that Lu Cheng'an was unaware of.

"Let's take some of this soil back with us, so that Yonghui can conduct his research!"

Lu Cheng'an took out a storage ring and quickly stored the soil below into it.

Without wasting any more time, he flew away from the Shattered Star Mountain Range.

"Did Fellow Daoist Lu have a smooth trip? Did you manage to obtain any top-grade fifth-rank Vermilion Fruit?" After seeing Lu Cheng'an emerge unharmed from the Shattered Star Mountain Range, Venerable Tianyun and Venerable Tianyun smiled with relief and inquired about Lu Cheng'an's gains in the Shattered Star Mountain Range.

"This trip went fairly smoothly. Those Starfire Sparrows weren't very strong. I managed to pick some top-grade fifth-tier Vermilion Fruits, but unfortunately, there were only two ripe top-grade fifth-tier Vermilion Fruits!" Lu Cheng'an sighed.

There were still some unripe fifth-grade top-quality vermilion fruits on that tree, but now Lu Cheng'an has uprooted the entire tree.

Even if Lu Yonghui successfully transplants the fifth-grade top-quality Vermilion Fruit tree later, it will definitely have a great impact on those fifth-grade top-quality Vermilion Fruits that have not yet matured.

"It's already quite good to obtain two mature, top-grade fifth-rank Vermilion Fruits. Fellow Daoist Lu's cultivation has only recently broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If you refine these two mature, top-grade fifth-rank Vermilion Fruits, you'll probably be able to break through to the perfect Nascent Soul realm in no time!" Venerable Tianyun said with a smile.

The fifth-grade top-quality Vermilion Fruit contains extremely abundant power. This grade of spiritual fruit is basically used by cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

However, Lu Cheng'an was no ordinary cultivator; this kind of top-grade fifth-rank spiritual fruit was of the greatest benefit to him.

"Breaking through from the late stage of Nascent Soul to the peak of Nascent Soul is not easy. The power of these two fifth-grade top-quality Vermilion Fruits alone is far from enough!"

Lu Cheng'an smiled helplessly and said, "I have successfully obtained the fifth-grade top-quality Vermilion Fruit. Next, I would like to trouble you two fellow Daoists to take me to that secret realm containing the power of the waterway."

"That secret realm containing the power of the waterway is near Black Ruins Lake, about six million miles from here. There are many ancient void beasts in this area, so we must be careful!" the Elder of Ten Thousand Corpses said in a deep voice.

The reason why the two old men, the Ten Thousand Corpses Elder and the others, did not go to investigate the secret realm containing the power of the waterway was because there were many powerful ancient void beasts around Black Ruins Lake.

There, you can see Void Ancient Beasts at the fifth-order perfect realm everywhere, and you might even encounter sixth-order Void Ancient Beasts.

At that time, the Elder of Ten Thousand Corpses and the Celestial Cloud were only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If they rashly entered such a dangerous place, the chances of something going wrong would be very high.

“Then let’s do it the same way as here. You two fellow Daoists, come with me to Black Ruins Lake and wait outside. I will go alone into that secret realm containing the power of the waterway to investigate,” Lu Cheng’an said with a smile.

He is still very confident in his strength; fifth-tier Void Beasts can no longer pose a threat to him.

If he accidentally encounters a sixth-tier Void Ancient Beast, he will use his Space Folding Divine Power.

While this carries some risk, it greatly increases the chances of escape.

The Shattered Star Mountain Range and Black Ruins Lake are six million miles apart, and there are quite a few powerful ancient void beasts dwelling in between.

It took Lu Cheng'an and his two companions a relatively long time to travel from the Shattered Star Mountain Range to Black Ruins Lake.

Black Ruins Lake is deep and vast, like a magnificent piece of black jade between heaven and earth.

Lu Cheng'an, Tianyun Shangren, and the other two stood in mid-air above Black Ruins Lake, their gazes towards the lake carrying a hint of solemnity.

"Fellow Daoist Lu should be able to sense that Black Ruins Lake is vast and inhabited by a large number of ancient void beasts, and these ancient void beasts are all extremely powerful."

"That secret realm containing the power of the waterway is located in the central area of ​​Black Ruins Lake. Fellow Daoist Lu must be extremely careful after entering Black Ruins Lake!" Venerable Tianyun said solemnly.

"Fellow Daoists, please be careful. There are also many powerful ancient void beasts outside Black Ruins Lake!"

After exchanging some words of advice, Lu Cheng'an and Tianyun Shangren flew directly into the Black Ruins Lake.

Black Ruins Lake is extremely vast, stretching as far as the eye can see. Although it is named after a lake, it is more like a black ocean.

After entering Black Ruins Lake, Lu Cheng'an completely concealed his aura to prevent the ancient void beasts living in Black Ruins Lake from discovering his whereabouts.

Time passed slowly. After flying over Black Ruins Lake for about two quarters of an hour, Lu Cheng'an gradually slowed down, as he had now entered the central area of ​​Black Ruins Lake.

This is the area with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire Black Ruins Lake. The quality of spiritual energy in the Endless Void is higher than that in the Profound Dust Realm, but the spiritual energy here is relatively mixed.

Cultivators in the Xuan Chen Realm can refine and absorb the spiritual energy in the endless void, but they cannot do so for a long time, otherwise it will cause them great trouble.

Lu Cheng'an sensed that the spiritual energy quality in the central area of ​​Black Ruins Lake was higher than elsewhere, but it also contained more mixed forces.

If one were to refine the spiritual energy of this place for cultivation, it would have a greater impact on oneself.

After silently sensing the spiritual energy in the central area of ​​Black Ruins Lake, Lu Cheng'an began to examine the location of the secret space containing the power of the waterway.

Although Yin Hua Sect and Tian Shi Sect knew that there was such a secret realm in Black Ruins Lake, they had not come to explore it for a long time and could not remember the exact location of the secret realm in Black Ruins Lake.

Lu Cheng'an had a relatively deep understanding of the Dao of Space, so finding the location of that secret realm in Black Ruins Lake was easier for him than for other cultivators.

Lu Cheng'an quickly formed a hand seal, and then his body entered the surrounding spatial layer. "The space above Black Ruins Lake is indeed somewhat special!"

Lu Cheng'an frowned deeply. He sensed that there were multiple interlayers in the space above Black Ruins Lake, and the walls of these interlayers were extremely thick.

If one's understanding of the principles of space is superficial, it will be difficult to break through these spatial barriers.

"There's no need to rush into finding the secret realm. Right now, we can use this unique environment to comprehend the Dao of Space!"

After considering it for a while, Lu Cheng'an began to carefully study the surrounding space.

During his comprehension, he also activated his spatial folding supernatural power to constantly traverse those spatial interlayers.

Suddenly, Lu Cheng'an sensed an anomaly in the interlayer of space ahead.

"There's a fight going on here!"

A look of surprise appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face. He was currently hiding in the spatial interlayer. A cultivator who could fight in such a place must have a deep understanding of the Dao of Space.

After observing for a while, Lu Cheng'an slowly approached the source of the fight.

"Jiang Li, your strength is indeed not to be underestimated, but you are definitely no match for me. So stop resisting and just accept your death!"

"Bullshit! I'll kill you!"

…………

"A human cultivator and a demonic dragon, both of them are at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and they are both very powerful!"

A look of shock appeared on Lu Cheng'an's face. The strength displayed by the human cultivator named Jiang Li and the demonic dragon shocked him.

Although their cultivation level is still at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, their combat power has already exceeded the limit of this stage.

However, Jiang Li's injuries are quite severe, while the demonic dragon, on the other hand, has not suffered any serious injuries.

Although Jiang Li is currently holding his own against the demonic dragon, if the fight drags on for too long, he will eventually die at the dragon's hands due to his injuries.

"I'm no match for them, but I can hold off that demonic dragon to some extent. Should I intervene to save Jiang Li?"

Lu Cheng'an frowned deeply. He didn't know Jiang Li's identity, but since she could possess such formidable strength at the Nascent Soul stage, she was definitely not an ordinary cultivator.

The demonic dragon was surrounded by surging demonic energy, and the demonic power contained in its demonic attacks was much purer, far surpassing that of the demonic cultivators of the Xuan Chen Realm.

Just as Lu Cheng'an was hesitating whether to help Jiang Li, he suddenly felt a surge of demonic energy rushing towards the space where he was.

This demonic energy was emitted by the demonic dragon at the fifth-order perfect realm; it had already discovered Lu Cheng'an's presence!

"A human cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage has received another unexpected surprise!"

The demonic dragon chuckled. It felt no fear at all because of Lu Cheng'an's appearance; on the contrary, it was somewhat excited, as it could kill another human cultivator.

Because this demonic dragon never took Lu Cheng'an seriously from beginning to end!
With a wave of his hand, Lu Cheng'an summoned the Void Fire Sky-Burning Banner, which blocked the demonic dragon's attack, and then instantly spread out his Dao Domain.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, go all out! I'll help you slay this demonic dragon!"

Lu Cheng'an showed no sign of nervousness. After the demon dragon saw through his whereabouts, he immediately stopped hesitating and felt extremely excited.

He wanted to use this demonic dragon to test his current strength!
Lu Cheng'an pushed the Void Fire Sky-Burning Banner, a top-grade fifth-tier magic weapon, to its limit, and at the same time, he also summoned the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell.

The Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell is Lu Cheng'an's natal magic weapon, and its grade is currently still at the fifth-tier high-grade level.

Lu Cheng'an has already deduced the method for refining the fifth-grade top-quality Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell, but he hasn't had time to refine it yet.

The power released by the fifth-grade superior Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell was relatively small, but Lu Cheng'an did not intend to use the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell to cause any damage to the demonic dragon.

He activated the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell mainly because he wanted to use the power of this magic weapon to influence the primordial spirit of the demonic dragon.

The sonic attack of the Earth Flame Purple Gold Bell can damage the primordial spirit of a Nascent Soul cultivator!
With a loud cry, a huge firebird condensed in Lu Cheng'an's expanded Dao Domain.

This firebird was formed entirely from the power of fire, a manifestation of the fire power that Lu Cheng'an had comprehended.

Lu Cheng'an's strength is indeed somewhat inferior to that of the Demon Dragon and Jiang Li, but this gap is not insurmountable. Lu Cheng'an's attacks are enough to have a certain impact on the Demon Dragon.

Jiang Li, who had originally planned to let Lu Cheng'an leave, changed her mind and began to focus all her efforts on the demonic dragon, hoping to rely on Lu Cheng'an's power to repel the demonic dragon or kill it directly!

Jiang Li began to fight desperately, and with Lu Cheng'an's assistance from the side, the demonic dragon, which had originally had the upper hand, instantly fell into a disadvantageous position.

A layer of sparks flew from his black scales, and Jiang Li used her magic sword to cut a deep bloody gash.

Roar!
With an angry roar, the demonic dragon spewed out two plumes of black dragon breath.

These two bursts of dragon breath were the most powerful attacks released by the demonic dragon, and they were directed at Lu Cheng'an and Jiang Li respectively.

"Fellow Daoist, be careful! This is the Black Flame Demon Dragon's strongest attack, the Black Flame Dragon Breath!"

After reminding Lu Cheng'an, Jiang Li quickly condensed a series of hand seals, desperately trying to resist the attack of the black flame dragon breath.

After sensing the terrifying power contained in the black flame dragon breath, Lu Cheng'an's expression changed several times. He instantly used his spatial folding technique to prepare to avoid the attack.

However, the spatial barrier here is extremely thick, and the power of that black flame dragon breath is too overwhelming.

Even with the power of his spatial folding ability, Lu Cheng'an could not completely avoid the attack and suffered very serious injuries.

Seeing that Lu Cheng'an and Jiang Li were still alive, the Black Flame Dragon became even more enraged. It opened its huge black maw, preparing to unleash its Black Flame Dragon Breath once again to attack Lu Cheng'an and Jiang Li.

Lu Cheng'an's expression changed. After quickly sending a telepathic message to Jiang Li, he unleashed the Thousand-Year Seal and the Tranquil Ancient Seal to attack the Black Flame Demon Dragon. (End of Chapter)
