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

On the other side of the Ancient Forest, Qingyu chose a location about 80 or 90 miles away from Lu Ye's secluded cultivation place.

He saw that the primordial energy of heaven and earth, which had been floating quietly in the sky above his head, had suddenly undergone subtle changes.

Although Qingyu had somewhat anticipated this, she was still somewhat surprised.

When she met her son-in-law this time, she felt that he was no less powerful than the Heavenly Realm elders of the Beast Spirit Sacred Mountain.

Especially that divine power that forced the Holy Maiden of the Sea Spirit, Xiao Yudie, to admit defeat on the spot...

The feeling Qingyu got from it seemed that it was more powerful than all the inherited supernatural abilities of the Beast Spirit Sacred Mountain.

"It seems that the young master has encountered many opportunities over the years. No wonder he didn't want the Heavenly Rank manual when I offered him it, and he didn't want the Azure Lotus Seed when I offered it to him just now either."

Qingyu revealed a hint of joy, then took out a Azure Lotus Seed, swallowed it, and began to cultivate.

As the two entered seclusion, the primordial energy of heaven and earth that gathered in this ancient forest was quickly absorbed.

...

The second layer, a certain region.

At this moment, the Holy Maiden of the Sea Spirit, Xiao Yudie, stood alone in a cave, her expression somewhat dazed.

The image of that red divine bird, seemingly looking down upon everything and radiating divine fire, would still appear in her mind from time to time.

"So what kind of supernatural power is it?"

"How did he learn that?!"

What Xiao Yudie was most curious about was this. Logically speaking, even their Sea Spirit Palace couldn't find a divine ability of this level. Whose divine ability stele was so powerful?
Besides, even if it were powerful... it's impossible for it to appear in the North!
"How could someone from the Northern Territory possess so many mysterious techniques? If I didn't have the Mystic Blue Round Mirror, I would have had a hard time withstanding that extreme sword energy earlier."

Xiao Yudie frowned, deep in thought, feeling that something was amiss.

"Wait a minute, could this kid actually be from one of those top-tier forces... at least stronger than the Heavenly Palace, and he's here to play the life game with me?!"

Suddenly, this possibility flashed through her mind, and the Holy Maiden of the Sea Spirit Palace immediately opened her eyes wide.

So, he was just traveling the mortal world, and I was the... naive... good guy who went up to him and gave him fifty source crystals?!

The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Neither of those two supernatural abilities was simple!

"So, he swindled me out of fifty source crystals?"

Xiao Yudie suddenly felt terrible. She only had about a hundred Source Crystals a year, and now a third of them had disappeared!

"I miscalculated. Chen Beixuan looked honest, but I didn't expect him to be so cunning..."

At this moment, Xiao Yudie gritted her teeth slightly, feeling a strange sensation as if she were trapped in a sack.

Most importantly, they only opened the door, but she took the initiative to go up to them and get in three or four times!

...

Outside, in the northern border of Xuanzhou.

Since the powerful cultivators who gathered from all over the world entered the perilous yet opportunity-filled hell of the Mitian Palace after its official opening, the Northern Territory has suddenly become quiet, just like usual.

At this moment, in a desolate mountain range in the North, which is usually deserted, a group of people were busy with something.

These people don't look much different from other humans in the Northern Territory, but if Lu Ye or You Luo were here...

It was clear that these people had come from the Nine Netherworld. However, after arriving here, they did not rush to leave the mountains.

Instead, they seemed to be setting something up in a deserted valley in the mountains.

"Boss, with this setup, will the Domain Lord really be able to come?" A square-faced seventh-level Mortal Realm cultivator whispered as he made the arrangements, glancing at the leader of the Night Nether Domain, a ninth-level Mortal Realm cultivator beside him.

"Why ask so many questions? The Domain Lord tells you to do this, so just do it. Even if you can't make it, the Domain Lord won't blame us," said the leader of the Night Nether Domain at the ninth level of the Mortal Realm.

They came from the Nightshade Domain. Ever since they invited the Array Dao Grandmaster who was still alive in the Nine Netherworld Realm to repair the interdimensional teleportation array in the Nightshade Domain twice.

The chances of being teleported to Xuanzhou have increased considerably.

Moreover, the cultivation level of those who can be teleported is also increasing.

What these people from the Nightshade Domain, who arrived in Xuanzhou in batches and then gathered in the northern border, had to do was to establish a more accurate array anchor point here, as instructed.

This further increases the chances of being teleported here.

"By the way, although this place seems ordinary, we can't let our guard down. I heard that other spirit domains have already lost some people." Thinking of this, the leader of the Night Nether Domain's mortal realm immediately reminded them.

Upon hearing this, the few busy mortals from the Nine Netherworld trembled, feeling the surrounding environment suddenly become cold and eerie.

Meanwhile, in the Nine Netherworld, the Night Nether Domain.

In the vast underground palace complex, Ye Youyu stood in front of a window, looking up into the distance.

If the maidservant of that slippery stranger from a few years ago were here, she would know.

The place that the Lord of the Nightshade Domain is currently facing is the courtyard where the outsiders used to live.

She stared for a while before slowly looking away.

"I will send people to Xuanzhou and the Northern Territory to search for the whereabouts of the Nine Nether Empress. I will not insist on their presence."

She just wanted to know why that stranger suddenly chose to leave without saying a word.

She asked herself honestly, she hadn't offended that person in any way, nor had she done anything to wrong him. Even if she wanted to leave, she wasn't willing to say a word.
Since that night, Ye Youyu has rarely worn red clothes anymore.

"If I, the Lord of this Domain, find you... I will definitely hang you up and give you a good beating!" Ye Youyu's eyes instantly turned sharp.

...

The Misty Heaven Palace, on the second floor.

After Lu Ye consumed two or three Azure Lotus Seeds in a short period of time and refined them into his dantian, his cultivation level visibly increased above the eighth level, heading straight for the ninth level.

With twenty Azure Lotus Seeds in his hand, Lu Ye used them without hesitation. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the ninth level, he consumed two more seeds in the blink of an eye.

Time passed by little by little, and in the blink of an eye, two days had gone by...

With the spatial turbulence storm on the third level weakening, there is only one and a half days left.

At this moment, Lu Ye had already digested nearly ten Azure Lotus Seeds. The massive energy he absorbed allowed him to enter the ninth level of the Earth Realm without any obstacles!

He was only one step away from becoming a true Grandmaster of the Celestial Realm!
Within a radius of a hundred miles of this ancient forest, the primordial energy of heaven and earth was almost drained away by his power, to the point that even ferocious beasts wept.

"Let's give it a try and see if we can rely on the ten lotus seeds behind us to advance to the late stage of the ninth level..." (End of this chapter)
