In the Demon Saint City.
On the plaza, in the depths of night, it beca lively once more, with shadow after shadow descending here.
Including the current Demon Saint City Lord, who darted out from the mansion to co to this place.
When people saw the appearance of the Demon Saint City Lord, they recognized him and greeted him respectfully.
"City Lord, you’ve co as well?"
"Greetings to the City Lord."
Faced with the respectful greetings of the crowd, the Demon Saint City Lord smiled and nodded.
Afterward, his gaze fell onto the floating light sphere above the Demon Saint Stele, a trace of astonishnt flashing through his eyes.
Inside the light sphere, there was a vague figure.
This figure gave the Demon Saint City Lord a sense as if it wasn’t much weaker than himself.
Reaching this conclusion, the Demon Saint City Lord was surprised.
One must know that he was a genuine Earth Realm Grandmaster.
Yet, presently, the one who had just made it onto the Demon Saint Stele List was at the Mortal Realm Grandmaster Fifth Layer when leaving his na.
So, the Demon Saint City Lord was puzzled as to why he had this feeling.
When could a Mortal Realm Grandmaster cross a Great Realm and give an Earth Realm Grandmaster such overwhelming pressure?
Gazing at the light sphere above the stele, the Demon Saint City Lord seed deep in thought.
At the sa ti, within the light sphere, Lu Ye was operating the Ancient Star Scripture to the fullest extent.
After the ninth layer late stage, the speed at which he refined energy had significantly improved compared to before.
This energy feedback from the Demon Saint Stele, within the ti of a stick of incense, was mostly refined.
However, it was regrettable that this stele reward still only allowed him to halt at the Earth Realm Grandmaster Barrier.
It was insufficient to open the checkpoint.
After all, the first and second levels of the Stele List offered feedback only at the mid-level of the Mortal Realm Grandmaster.
Perhaps, throughout the entire Demon Saint Province, no one, or no demon, could imagine soone reaching the stage of being just a step away from the Earth Realm in their twenties or thirties.
Sensing the abundant aura of cultivators gathered outside, among which were even two presences that surpassed the Mortal Realm...
Lu Ye pondered for a mont, planning to find an opportunity to leave once the refinent was complete.
Another cup of tea’s ti passed, and the last trace of feedback energy was refined by Lu Ye and returned to his Dantian.
At the instant when the stele’s protective shield dissipated around him...
A figure, like a night ghost, instantly burst out from the dissipating light shield.
In that space, one mont brought forth a series of afterimages.
In a certain part of the plaza, the Demon Saint City Lord’s pupils suddenly contracted.
"What terrifying body technique... it must not be below that of an Earth Realm Demon King!"
Sensing that this newly ranked first on the Demon Saint Stele seed to wish to leave, the Demon Saint City Lord pondered for a mont and decided not to follow.
However, many other cultivators, unable to suppress their curiosity, hesitated only briefly before deciding to pursue to see what was happening.
Unexpectedly, monts later, these cultivators completely lost track of Lu Ye’s departure.
The speed that even shocked the Demon Saint City Lord, an Earth Realm Grandmaster, was evidently beyond the pursuit capability of ordinary cultivators.
Just less than ten minutes after Lu Ye left, several streaks of flowing light again headed this way from the horizon.
Among them was Qin Qingqing, who hurriedly arrived.
Of course, knowing her speed was slow, she was brought by a guard at the Mortal Realm Grandmaster Ninth Layer.
They hurriedly landed outside the city and then entered. When Qin Qingqing arrived before the Demon Saint Stele and raised her head to look...
She found that above the stele, there was no one in sight.
The terrifying light pillar had also vanished.
However, at this mont, the plaza was still crowded with many cultivators and mbers of the Demon Race who had not yet left.
Many people took this opportunity to set up a protective barrier at so place on the plaza, sitting cross-legged in an attempt to gain insights from the Heaven and Earth Source Qi here.
"He’s gone?"
Staring at the scene in front of the stele, Qin Qingqing was montarily stunned, despite her quick pace, she ultimately didn’t make it in ti.
The curiosity about the Spiritual Mark on her was almost reaching an explosive level in Qin Qingqing’s heart.
Unfortunately, the other side did not give her a chance to inquire.
...
Elsewhere, as Lu Ye rapidly left the Demon Saint City, he could clearly feel that he was now only a breath away from breaking through to the Earth Realm.
Thus, after flying out of Demon Saint City, Lu Ye imdiately searched for a suitable place to start his retreat.
After a little more than half an hour, Lu Ye chose a cave far from the Demon Saint City and entered it.
Setting up several layers of protective barriers, he prepared to break through to the Earth Realm Grandmaster.
Lu Ye was confident in this breakthrough.
The last ti, he channeled the energy from the Secret Realm Divine Ancient Well into the Myriad Dao Pavilion.
During this ti, that mysterious little tree had been absorbing and transforming this Source Qi.
Thus, this little tree could provide enormous help for this retreat.
Looking at the barrier in the cave, Lu Ye uncharacteristically took out the mysterious little tree he had been keeping in the Myriad Dao Pavilion space.
At this ti, the leaves of the little tree had turned incredibly lush green, radiating the vitality of life.
With a hint of a smile, Lu Ye murmured, "I’m counting on you..."
He then let Xiao Ling out to roam freely in the cave.
Placing the little tree in front of him, Lu Ye quietly closed his eyes, and then, points of starlight appeared behind him...
To maximize the refinent of the mysterious little tree’s energy, Lu Ye didn’t hesitate and instantly activated the Star Divine Body.
Monts later, as the Source Crystal in his hand began to rapidly refine.
Energy surged into Lu Ye’s body, and the leaves of the mysterious little tree in front of him trembled correspondingly.
Green streams of light flowed and entered Lu Ye’s body...
He himself, under the feedback from the stele, distinctly perceived the location of the barrier, therefore, he did not need to expend extra energy to explore the obstruction.
With wave after wave of energy flowing in and being refined, Lu Ye imdiately began to tackle the breakthrough.
In the cave, as Xiao Ling, originally hopping around the spacious cave, sensed the aura behind, it imdiately turned its head curiously.
"Yiya yiya?" Is the master breaking through?
anwhile, outside the cave, in the early morning hours of the night sky...
The thousands of stars scattered over this starry sky suddenly began to flash brightly.
As if... their master was guiding them.
Initially, only the stars within several thousand miles of the Demon Saint City started to flicker, and no one paid much attention.
They remained imrsed in the enormous sky-piercing light pillar scene triggered by the new first on the Demon Saint Stele earlier.
But as the stars continued to flicker, it finally drew attention to sothing amiss.
When did stars flash like they were equipped with a flashing array, blinking non-stop?
"Why does it feel like there are so many strange things tonight, look at the starlight in the sky, isn’t sothing wrong? I see it’s flashing non-stop?"
"Let see... hey, it really is! Is this... soone guiding the Star Power?!"
