After setting up the barrier, Lu Ye closed his eyes, leaving two points of attention to sense the dynamics of the outside world.
The rest was focused on fully absorbing the Heaven and Earth Source Qi within the Forbidden Land.
Such a blessed place, it would be a pity not to cultivate here.
Since this was inside the Forbidden Land, Lu Ye no longer concealed the terrifying absorption of the Ancient Star Scripture.
Instantly, within a span of several kiloters, the Source Qi gathered with a roar, causing many fierce beasts to flee in terror, thinking so Beast King had arrived in the central area.
It was not until the latter half of the night that Lu Ye finally exhaled a long breath of relief, scattering a few pieces of Source Crystal Powder from his hand.
The cultivation tonight allowed him to take a significant step forward in the Early Stage of the Ninth Layer, towards the Middle Stage.
Just a little more, and he could advance to the Middle Stage of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer!
"By the way, tonight the Myriad Dao Pavilion has just completed its recharging."
Imrsing his consciousness, staring at the Myriad Dao Pavilion that once again could be extracted from deep within his mind, Lu Ye calculated the silver he currently had.
A few billion remained, but it still wasn’t enough for a ten-billion specific extraction.
"Next ti I’ll gather enough silver for a specific extraction, this ti I’ll go with a random draw..."
With a slight movent of his mind, the Myriad Dao Pavilion imdiately shook gently.
In Lu Ye’s ntal perception, a prompt slowly appeared.
[Congratulations to the host! Obtained Upper Grade Grandmaster Pill*1, the host may claim it at any ti!]
Hearing this prompt, Lu Ye’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.
"Upper Grade Grandmaster Pill?"
This ti’s random draw result was beyond his expectations.
His gaze instantly beca sharp, and Lu Ye looked around. Within hundreds of ters, due to his imnse pressure, no fierce beast dared to linger here.
"If that’s the case, advancing to the Middle Stage of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer... will happen here in the Black Tide Forbidden Land."
Within the Grandmaster Barrier, Lu Ye beckoned with one hand, and the Grandmaster Pill he had just extracted imdiately appeared in his palm.
A scent of the pill quickly filled the air.
He swallowed it in one gulp, and the surging dicinal power exploded within his body, setting the Ancient Star Scripture in motion once more...
...
Cloud Leaf City, City Lord’s Mansion.
Wang Xingluo sat alone in a dim room, his expression cold.
"I never expected ng Lei’s mouth to be so stubborn. I haven’t been able to pry it open in two years."
Then, Wang Xingluo sneered, saying, "However, this City Lord... has ans and strength! If you ng Lei won’t speak, there will be soone who will speak for you."
A light clap of hands, and a Dark Guard from the City Lord’s Mansion imdiately walked in from outside.
Accompanied by a sowhat timid woman, quite alluring in appearance.
Seeing Wang Xingluo, the woman said fearfully, "Little woman Zhang Li, greets... City Lord Wang."
Wang Xingluo regained his refined deanor, smiling gently, "Your na is Zhang Li, right? No need to be nervous. Sit, I am a friend of ng Lei, you should know."
The woman nodded slightly, whispering, "I heard ng Lei ntion before... City Lord Wang, do you know where ng Lei has gone?"
Sighing, Wang Xingluo shook his head: "He’s missing... We brought you in because we found that ng Lei once had close contact with you."
"Did he ever say anything strange to you? I suspect ng Lei’s disappearance might be related to it."
Strange words?
Thinking for a mont, Zhang Li shook her head: "He didn’t seem to say anything strange to ..."
"Really nothing?" Wang Xingluo squinted his eyes slightly, then smiled: "Like, sothing about a tree or such?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Li pondered hard, finally exclaiming: "I-I think I rember, one day, ng Lei did ntion it to ."
"He said his ng family had so kind of ancestral tree... At that ti, I thought it was strange, how could a tree have anything to do with being ancestral?"
Hearing this, a gleam flashed in Wang Xingluo’s eyes.
The painstakingly sought person was indeed useful.
Wang Xingluo’s smile grew ever more amiable as he personally walked over to Zhang Li, handed her a cup of tea, and said with a smile, "There’s no rush, take your ti to think. If you rember anything, just tell this City Lord."
Startled and flattered, Zhang Li quickly stood up, carefully recalling the past...
"ng Lei only ntioned it briefly to , I don’t know much."
Zhang Li said, "He said there was an ancestral tree, but for so reason, it couldn’t be brought out, only left in a Secret Realm of the Broken Soul Forbidden Land..."
Broken Soul Forbidden Land?!
A strong sense of fear flashed in Wang Xingluo’s eyes.
That place, renowned alongside the Black Tide Forbidden Land, is one of Xuanzhou’s top forbidden areas!
Not to ntion Grandmasters, even Great Grandmasters cannot truly uncover all the secrets within these forbidden lands!
...
At this mont, it was already the latter half of the night, approaching the break of dawn on the horizon.
And in the central region of the Black Tide Forbidden Land...
A vacuum zone of Source Qi appeared, terrifying countless fierce beasts!
In that region... even a passing fierce beast would lose a few strands of fur to escape!
Even deep within the forbidden land, overlord-level fierce beasts awakened from slumber, gazing distantly.
Fierce beasts are inherently drawn to avoid danger, but at the Beast King Realm, few things can rekindle this primal fear.
Today... the fear sealed deep within their hearts resurfaced.
Deep within, several Beast Kings felt uneasy, sensing sothing terrifying might have erged in the central region!
A "fierce might" even surpassing them!
Fortunately, this fierce might lasted less than an hour before dissipating and did not rapidly spread further into the depths.
anwhile, Lu Ye had finally completed the refining of the Upper Grade Grandmaster Pill, officially advancing to the Middle Stage of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer!
Within him, the vast Grandmaster Source Qi flowed endlessly like a river.
As dawn began breaking on the horizon, dispersing the dense darkness of the forbidden land, Lu Ye stood up, retracting the protective shield of the Grandmaster Realm that had been up all night.
Half an hour later, restored to his peak condition, Lu Ye headed towards the depths of the Black Tide Forbidden Land.
Two hours later...
After searching several areas deep within without finding a trace of the Shadow Flower, Lu Ye could only move towards the location of the Black Tide Nether River.
According to Red Cloud Fairy, the surroundings of the Nether River were well-suited for the growth of the Shadow Flower.
There’s a high probability that such spirit flowers could be found there.
But...
The Black Tide Nether River is very strange!
The river water is pitch-black and bottomless, and that’s just the beginning; within its hundreds of ters width, nurous grievances seem to exist!
Once you approach the vicinity of the Nether River, a soul-shattering wail echoes, clouding one’s mind.
Ultimately, step by step, one becos lost, moving towards the Nether River, eventually falling in and being consud by it.
However, with the Myriad Dao Pavilion in hand and the cultivation of spiritual awareness techniques related to the spirit, Lu Ye had so confidence in resisting such spiritual and ntal corrosion.
After spending so ti, Lu Ye passed through a vast dense forest.
"Finally arrived."
In front of him was a wide river, seemingly exuding a chilling aura, bursting from an underground river.
The river, over a hundred ters wide, roared with black water so fiercely it seed capable of swallowing everything!
Most of the Black Tide Nether River’s flow lies underground, making it the most terrifying subterranean river!
Only a short section bursts from the ground as it passes through the Black Tide Forbidden Land, before subrging back underground, shrouded in mystery once again.
No one knows where the Nether River ultimately leads...
Or to where.
