The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 314 Lu Ye Absorbs the Spirit Pool, and Stars Appear in Broad Daylight!

As Lu Ye quickly headed in that direction and arrived not far from the lightning-attribute spirit pool, he discovered that there was actually a natural barrier there.

This covered up the spirit pool.

Only the faint aura of lightning indicated that there was indeed an opportunity here.

"Perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of natural barriers that the ferocious beasts in the Gravity Plains have not been able to wreak havoc on this place."

After a moment of contemplation, Lu Ye did not call out Xiao Ling, who was resting in the Wan Dao Pavilion.

This natural barrier is quite ingenious; cultivators can almost see through it at a glance, but most ferocious beasts, lacking the ability to adapt, are easily kept out.

The next moment, Lu Ye crossed the natural barrier outside and entered.

The space inside is not large; it is a stone platform in the middle of a flat, muddy plain.

On the stone platform was a pool, and above the pool... faint wisps of lightning could be seen, like lightning snakes surging!

He leaped onto the stone platform and sat down cross-legged in an instant.

Even before using the Starry Sky Scripture, one could sense the surging energy around him, eager to penetrate into Lu Ye's body.

I absorbed a little bit and tested the strength of this lightning-attribute spirit pool.

A faint tingling sensation suddenly spread through Lu Ye's body, like an electric shock...

"Fortunately, it's still within the tolerance range. I just don't know how much it will be strengthened after it starts absorbing in large quantities..."

Nodding slightly, Lu Ye no longer hesitated, and the Starry Sky Scripture was activated at full power in an instant! Above him, a faint starry sky image appeared and disappeared!
As Lu Ye absorbed the energy with all his might, the lightning serpent hidden within the spiritual pool erupted completely.

Lu Ye felt a sharp pain within his body; it was the power of thunder!
"What a powerful lightning attribute!"

In that instant, Lu Ye finally grasped the power of thunder. The human body is ultimately fragile and has not yet reached the level of being as strong as steel.

After a moment's thought, Lu Ye instantly slowed down the absorption and refining speed by half.

The power of the lightning serpent that had gathered at this moment was finally acceptable to Lu Ye.

As Lu Ye absorbed and refined the energy, the aura emanating from his body slowly began to rise.

The first level of the secret realm.

Su Wan also arrived at the entrance leading to the second floor.

"Huh? I remember there used to be ferocious beasts roaming around the entrance, where are they today?"

After thinking for a moment, Su Wan came to a conclusion: Could it be that someone had arrived earlier?

Is it Master, or Lu Xuan?

Without lingering long on the first level, Su Wan quickly entered the second level of the secret realm.

Just as Su Wan entered the second level, in the vast and boundless second-level secret realm... suddenly lightning flashed and thunder roared!
Rumble!
Bolts of lightning pierced through the clouds and crashed down upon this secluded realm, which was mostly sealed off.

"Heavenly lightning from a secret realm?! What... what's going on?!"

Su Wan had also entered the secret realm several times. Although theoretically there were various celestial phenomena in it, most of the time it was calm and uneventful.

Strong winds only occur at night.

Such a thunderous strike... has never been seen in the secret realm before!

On the other side, Fairy Crimson Cloud, who had arrived at a hot area in the secret realm, suddenly looked up at the sky.

"Heavenly lightning descends?!" It's somewhat similar to a previous celestial phenomenon in the Northern Territory!
In that instant, many of the previous speculations resurfaced in Chi Yun's mind!
That time... hundreds of miles outside Yunye City, they encountered someone who seemed to have a divine body breaking through. Fairy Chiyun wanted to go and check, but was driven away by a female cultivator in black...

"So, I was wrong before. The possessor of the divine body and you... are the same person?!"

Fairy Chiyun stood frozen in place, somewhat dazed.

"You...you are actually a god?!"

Unlike Su Wan, Fairy Chiyun was almost certain that this celestial phenomenon was most likely caused by Lu Xuan!

Even... 99%!

"Is he trying to become a Grandmaster right now?!"

Thinking of this, Chi Yun was suddenly startled. Grandmaster... those three words are so distant!

Just as the situation within the secret realm was changing rapidly, a torrential downpour suddenly descended upon the sky above the Crimson Cloud Sect and over a radius of several thousand miles.

The rainstorm came very suddenly, and many people were caught in it, barely able to protect themselves with their internal energy and find shelter.

"This darn weather, how can it change so suddenly? It was fine just a moment ago."

"Yes, I had only gone halfway there, intending to visit my distant cousin, but with this rain, I won't be able to see him, and I won't be able to see my cousin either..."

In a small town.

The eaves of the shops along the street were crowded with people seeking shelter from the rain. Looking at the sudden downpour from the sky, many of them wore expressions of helplessness.

Among the crowd seeking shelter from the rain was an elderly man dressed in coarse linen clothing.

The old man exuded a strong sense of age, indicating that he was an old man nearing the end of his life.

His old face was covered with wrinkles, his old eyes were cloudy, and he seemed to be shrouded in the lingering effects of alcohol.

But as he gazed at the sudden downpour, the old man's expression suddenly hardened, and a hint of surprise, imperceptible to ordinary people, flashed deep in his eyes.

"There's a hint of auspiciousness in the celestial phenomena... Could it be that someone is breaking through?"

The old man muttered to himself, his voice low, but it was still heard by those around him.

Turning his head, he saw it was the old man in hemp clothing and immediately laughed: "Old Yuan, what nonsense are you talking about again? Have you drunk too much again today?"

"Yeah, you old Yuan, you like to talk nonsense when you drink. You always say that the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. I think you've been spouting a lot of nonsense!"

Someone nearby burst into laughter. Old Yuan was a lonely old man in town who had come here seven or eight years ago and lived in a thatched hut on the west side of town that no one had wanted before.

The old man liked to drink, but he never had much money, so he set up a fortune-telling stall and collected some copper coins to buy wine.

However, the old man's calculations were initially accurate, which gradually led to him gaining some fame.

But as more and more people came seeking his services, the divination focused on the opportunities and fortunes of cultivators, rather than the general fortune of ordinary people…

Old Yuan's divination seemed to have lost its accuracy, and it never came true again. If it weren't for his old age and frail health, his business would probably have been overturned by those hot-tempered cultivators.

So now, hearing that he could discern some mysterious auspicious energy simply by observing this rainstorm, and that someone was breaking through to a higher level, is surprising.

The residents of the nearby town couldn't help but laugh.

Old Yuan ignored what others were saying, his expression, though half-drunk, revealing a hint of seriousness.

"In broad daylight, stars are faintly visible..."
