Desert Sea, Illusory Sand Forbidden Land.
Endless yellow sand swirled and dispersed under the fierce wind, making the entire sky appear dim and murky.
Unlike other forbidden lands, which are vast deserts, this place is an imnse ancient city.
The architecture of the ancient city resembles a mortal’s imperial palace, built with extre grandeur, and the city walls tower over fifty or sixty zhang high.
Although abandoned for countless years, it still evokes a sense of insignificance.
At this mont, a cultivator landed not far from the ancient city.
His gaze was fixed on the ancient city, with his eyebrows raised high.
This person was none other than Ye Jingcheng, who was exploring the forbidden land.
In his hand, there was a Spirit Disc, upon which countless red spirit points moved continuously.
These spirit points were none other than the positions of the Five Poison Bees.
Despite releasing many Five Poison Bees, none managed to escape; inside, they flew chaotically, unable to detect any useful information, yet he sensed that the Five Poison Bees were not dead.
Moreover, Ye Jingcheng used the Soul Splitting Technique with Earth Soul Technique on one of the Five Poison Bees. Although this soul split only reached the level of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, it carried Ye Jingcheng’s wisdom.
Even so, it could not escape, and the split soul couldn’t reunite, nor could it share mories.
Ye Jingcheng was utterly helpless, and he dared not enter.
After all, his Divine Sense was ineffective before this forbidden land, and he even suspected that it might be the inheritance ground of a power.
But considering nobody had ever been known to co out of the Illusory Sand Forbidden Land, Ye Jingcheng naturally hesitated to gamble.
Furthermore, this wasn’t his first exploration of a forbidden land after the Black Crow Forbidden Land.
Before this, he had already explored the Primordial Magnetic Forbidden Land.
Because of the Primordial Magnetic Earth Stone’s restraint on Five Elents Magic, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t perform any Five Elents Escape Techniques and could only rely on the Wind Attribute Spiritual Power of his Communication Beast, the White-Browed Cyan Wolf, to proceed. But after advancing ten li, his physical body started to struggle against the wind and sand pressure.
He estimated that to thoroughly enter and obtain the Primordial Magnetic Earth Stone, a Nascent Soul Body Cultivator, especially one who has cultivated a non-Five Elents Body Cultivation Technique, would be needed.
Of course, he did not return entirely empty-handed from the Primordial Magnetic Forbidden Land, discovering that deeper inside, so Celestial Essence Stones could be found.
These Celestial Essence Stones, when refined into a Flying Sword, might exhibit miraculous effects at crucial monts.
After all, they greatly restrain Five Elents Magic.
The only drawback is that these Celestial Essence Stones are only at Tier Two level, significantly affecting magical artifacts but less effective for magical treasures.
Now, he found that the Illusory Sand Forbidden Land was even more dangerous than the Primordial Magnetic Forbidden Land.
Despite exerting all his efforts, Ye Jingcheng couldn’t explore inside.
"I can only deploy the Shadow Wood Puppet!" Ye Jingcheng searched the Desert Sea for more Shadow Wood, and now he could only plant one here.
Hoping to monitor the Illusory Sand Forbidden Land.
As for assigning Ye Family mbers to guard here, he feared that once they entered, they would be trapped and perish inside the forbidden land.
This forbidden land was indeed too bizarre.
Ye Jingcheng sighed helplessly, then flew toward the Celestial Phoenix Oasis.
Even though he hadn’t discovered much, at least he could feel at ease sowhat.
Besides, he wasn’t without gains; places like the Black Crow Forbidden Land and the Forbidden Land of Fallen Souls only required the Earth Dragon Demon King’s breakthrough for exploration.
He glanced at the Clan Token, and once he knew that Ye Jingyu had headed to the Taihang Mountain Range, he was relieved.
He trusted his elder brother’s skills; with his elder brother and clan mbers present, it was unlikely for the Ye Clan to encounter problems.
Moreover, Ye Jingyu was an Array Master; once the Spatial Jade was refined, Ye Jingyu could completely establish a new Teleportation Array.
This way, the connection between the Desert Sea and the Yan Kingdom would be reestablished.
However, the ti to establish it remains uncertain, and the Earth Dragon Demon King’s breakthrough is essential.
But, the next mont, Ye Jingyu’s Divine Soul suddenly stirred.
His face imdiately lit up with joy.
It turned out that his Golden Scale Beast had broken through and needed to prepare for Thunder Tribulation.
This was also Ye Jingcheng’s third Spirit Beast to reach Tier Four.
This indicated that his cultivation speed would greatly increase.
Currently, he had already communicated with the Two-headed Turtle and Earth Dragon Demon King.
In reality, Ye Jingyu hadn’t yet extracted the Earth Dragon Demon King’s True Essence, as the latter was currently breaking through to Tier Five, and he worried that extracting it might cause issues.
Inciting the Earth Dragon Demon King’s anger was a minor concern; the lack of Nascent Soul combat power in the Ye Clan was the major issue!
For Golden Scale Beast crossing the Thunder Tribulation, he was most assured.
After all, Golden Scale Beast had thick skin and a sturdy physique and could deploy unknown layers of Stone Armor Skill. Even if several bolts of thunder struck, they wouldn’t be able to kill the Golden Scale Beast.
Ye Jingcheng unleashed his Divine Sense multiple tis, finally landing before a dune with an underground Spirit Vein.
The Spirit Vein here couldn’t truly be considered a Spirit Vein, not even Tier One Lower, but there was indeed a small amount of Spiritual Energy erging from underground.
If so Qi Cultivation Loose Cultivators were willing to invest Spirit Stones, they might be able to establish an oasis with a Spirit Vein here.
Of course, Ye Jingcheng chose this location more out of necessity, as the Illusory Sand Secret Realm was in the southern part of the Desert Sea, with few nearby oases.
Even though his speed as a Golden Core Cultivator was quick, he was a bit pressed for ti right now.
After all, when a Tier Three Demon Beast breaks through to Tier Four, it must cross the Thunder Tribulation.
Plus, demon beasts typically undergo an extra round of lightning compared to cultivators.
If the Thunder Tribulation appeared within a Grotto Heaven and by so mischance destroyed the Grotto Heaven, it would be incredibly regrettable, and Ye Jingcheng certainly wouldn’t want that.
Therefore, he decided to cross the tribulation in the Desert Sea.
After choosing the location, Ye Jingcheng began to deploy an array, which was still a Tier Three Top-Grade array, nad Grand Jade Golden Bell Array.
This array could gather a golden bell to weaken the Thunder Tribulation.
Compared to the previous Thunder Tower Array of the Ye Clan, this one is naturally a bit weaker.
But this array also has advantages, it requires less spiritual energy.
Once the array was set up, Ye Jingcheng took out a large number of Spirit Stones and laid them beside the array.
After arranging the Spirit Stones, he released the Red Fla Fox and the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, instructing them to guard the Golden Scale Beast.
As soon as the two beasts appeared, they were puzzled. The Red Fla Fox was confused about why Ye Jingcheng was on this dune, while the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon slightly opened its mouth, drooling quite a bit.
His Divine Soul was also feeling the sa way now, with two words echoing in its mind – so fragrant!
Apparently, in its view, the Golden Scale Beast breaking through to Tier Four was the most appealing existence...
Ye Jingcheng obviously didn’t think much of it at this mont, and directly released the Golden Scale Beast.
"Roar, Master!"
As soon as the Golden Scale Beast was released, it roared loudly, raising its head and glaring at the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.
"Master, I want to compete with this White-Skinned Snake, I can’t hold it in anymore!"
After breaking through, the Golden Scale Beast’s intelligence had clearly beco much stronger, with previously scattered thoughts now very clear.
Just by hearing its voice, one could sense the Golden Scale Beast’s anger.
"Cross the tribulation first!" Ye Jingcheng said with so exasperation.
At this mont, the Golden Scale Beast’s body had beco a bit sleeker, though its forelimbs still appeared sowhat bulky, covered with thick Scale Armor and dazzling Spirit Patterns.
The pair of Qilin Horns on its head had beco more lively, and its eyes larger, looking more like an Earth Qilin than before.
Boom!
With the Golden Scale Beast’s anger, dark clouds in the sky began to gather.
In an instant, the scorching sunlight disappeared, transforming into rolling Cloud Sea.
Nurous spiritual energies were also drawn up into the clouds.
Only then did the Golden Scale Beast co to its senses, staring at the sky.
And it began to get serious.
It started brewing the Earth Qilin Seal in its mouth.
Compared to when it was at Tier Three, it condensed the Earth Qilin Seal undoubtedly faster and rapidly evolved it into the Earth Qilin Hall, from which continuous roars of a Qilin emanated.
In an instant, it seed as if this Secret Technique had beco more powerful.
Ye Jingcheng was also watching the display of the Earth Qilin Hall, thinking that if possible, he would want to integrate the characteristics of the Earth Qilin Hall into his Earth Spirit Secret Technique Qilin Profound Earth True Hall.
This could strengthen his Earth Spirit Secret Technique power.
And as ti passed, the dark clouds in the sky finally condensed into the first Celestial Thunder.
This Celestial Thunder was enormous, as thick as an adult’s arm, containing terribly terrifying thunder power.
It thundered down in a flash.
The Array Golden Bell appeared instantly, but was quickly shattered, the dispersed Thunder Light heading straight towards the Golden Scale Beast.
And it collided with the Earth Qilin Hall that flew out.
With the display of the Earth Qilin Hall, even the Thunder Light seed to slow down.
"This!" At this mont, Ye Jingcheng hesitated greatly, but after sensing that the Thunder Light had indeed slowed significantly, he was sowhat pleasantly surprised.
It seed that the power of the Earth Qilin Hall had beco much stronger, and its Gravity Divine Light seed to even turn into repulsive force!
Boom!
The Celestial Thunder finally struck the Earth Qilin Hall, with endless Thunder Light descending, but surprisingly did not shatter it.
Instead, the Golden Scale Beast charged out, head-butting into the Earth Qilin Hall.
The hall was instantly demolished, and its scattered Thunder Light all surged into the Golden Scale Beast’s body.
At that mont, Ye Jingcheng also felt that under the Thunder Light, the Golden Scale Beast’s Breathing Technique seed to have beco stronger!
"Master, this Celestial Thunder is nothing, White-Skinned Snake, co here, I, the king, shall suppress all!" The Golden Scale Beast even had the strength to turn around and intimidate the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.
Of course, its provocation did not move the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon.
Yet the Celestial Thunder in the sky seed to beco more enraged, with countless Leiyun beginning to compress.
The next mont, the second Thunder Tribulation descended with a roar.
This second Thunder Tribulation’s power was nearly twice that of the first.
It was as thick as a thigh.
The mont the Golden Thunder Bell condensed, it was shattered, and even when the Earth Qilin Hall condensed again, it was smashed into pieces by the Celestial Thunder.
The Golden Scale Beast ignored everything and charged into the Thunder Light again.
This ti, the Golden Scale Beast roared in pain.
On its body, a layer of Scale Armor, like a fractured mirror, peeled off piece by piece.
It looked incredibly dramatic.
Yet feeling the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon watching it, it roared again.
"Not enough, still not enough, White-Browed Snake, co over!"
But the roaring voice carried a quiver.
And with the last piece of Scale Armor being stripped, the massive body of the Golden Scale Beast beca significantly smaller.
But its flesh coupled with Qilin-like fur appeared even more majestic, as if this was the true form of the Golden Scale Beast.
Simultaneously, as the Spiritual Light flowed, layers of Scale Armor reappeared on the Golden Scale Beast.
The Thunder Light gradually faded away.
And in the sky, the thunderclouds began to churn once again!
