Hearing Little Missy's reply, Wang Baole hurriedly tried to suck up to her. Finally, he brought up his idea of increasing his Spiritual Sense. Little Missy pondered for a moment before replying to Wang Baole's request. There were ways to increase one's Spiritual Sense, but most of them would require one to pay the price of overexertion.
As such, she didn't suggest Wang Baole to choose one. Instead, she suggested another option.
"You have already gone to the Eye of All Techniques of the visual inheritance in the Land of Five Senses. When you go to the sword body next time, I will see if I can help you find the Land of Listening. I remember that the Dao sounds there can greatly increase one's spiritual awareness when they listen to it for the first time."
"Land of Listening?" Wang Baole's eyes lit up with anticipation. However, the sword body region was too dangerous. Wang Baole felt that even with Little Missy's help, he still had to make sufficient preparations.
Therefore, after thinking for a while, Wang Baole decided to cultivate for a while longer. He would only go to the sword body region after he had fully comprehended what he had learned previously. Just like that, he put the matter of his spiritual awareness aside and began to focus on cultivating the Thunder Immortal Transformation and the Emperor Armor inheritance.
As for the eighth-grade Dharmic Armament, although he couldn't completely cultivate it, Wang Baole felt that he could more or less repair the damaged ninth-grade spear that he had obtained previously. Even if he couldn't completely repair it due to the limitations of his spiritual awareness, he could more or less use it as an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament.
"As for the formula for the Divine Armament … I won't think about it anymore. I will think about it again when I can completely cultivate the eighth-grade Dharmic Armament." Wang Baole took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He continued to cultivate and repair the spear at the same time.
Half a month passed very quickly. It was almost a year since Wang Baole and the other Federation Seedlings had arrived at the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
According to the agreement between the Federation and Feng Qiuran, a second batch of Federation cultivators would come to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace to cultivate after a year.
In this year, the first batch of Federation Seedlings, including Wang Baole, had improved greatly. Zhao Yameng had reached the Core Formation realm, and Zhuo Yifan had reached the perfected Foundation Establishment realm. As for the others, they all had their own gains. Most of them had improved by a level. Then there was Kongdao's favor …
When Wang Baole, Zhao Yameng, and Zhuo Yifan had gone to the Sword Body, Kongdao had been outside completing a mission with others. He didn't make it in time and missed the opportunity inheritance in the Land of Dharma. However, he had his own opportunities. Even though he couldn't compare to Zhao Yameng and Zhuo Yifan's gains in the Land of Dharma, his cultivation had reached the perfected Foundation Establishment realm. He was only half a step away from the Core Formation realm!
This half a step wasn't difficult, but it wasn't easy either. Everything depended on how he was going to kick open the door. However, Kongdao knew that this couldn't be rushed. Even so, he still went to look for Wang Baole.
It wasn't about his breakthrough in cultivation. Instead, it was about something else that he needed Wang Baole's help with.
Wang Baole was very enthusiastic about Kongdao's arrival. He walked out of seclusion and sat down in the cave abode. Wang Baole's eyes lit up as he looked at Kongdao, who was obviously different from when he was in the Federation.
He knew that among his batch of Federation Seedlings, Kongdao would be the first person to make a name for himself. After all … Kongdao was born in the sea of beasts. To a certain extent, he could be considered half a beast.
Furthermore, he had survived on Mars alone when he was still weak. From all these experiences, it could be seen that Kongdao was extremely independent and had strong survival skills. At the same time, his murderous aura was restrained in the Federation. However, in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, his murderous aura was completely unleashed. This made Kongdao look like an unsheathed sword in his Daoist robes!
This aura made the Vast Expanse Dao Palace cultivators around him not dare to provoke him. After all, they could feel that this person's hands were stained with blood.
At the same time, some of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace disciples started to interact with him. That was why they had completed the mission together. It could be said that Kongdao had been keeping a low profile for the past year. However, he had already formed his own circle and network in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
However, he knew that these circles in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace couldn't be considered true friends. It was fine if he was strong, but once he showed any signs of weakness, he would be swallowed whole.
After all … he had done such things in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace before!
Therefore, he sat in front of Wang Baole. Although he looked cold, he was obviously more relaxed. His eyes weren't as cold as before. After pondering for a while, he spoke directly.
"Baole, I need your help!"
When he heard Kongdao's words, Wang Baole's expression turned serious. He didn't ask what was going on. Instead, he nodded and agreed.
When he saw that Wang Baole didn't consider or ask before agreeing, Kongdao smiled. After thinking for a while, he spoke softly.
"During the few missions I completed, I used the spirit boat you gave me to find a hidden cave abode under the sea of fire … That cave abode can be considered to be intact. It is surrounded by restrictive spells, and because of its unique location, no one has discovered it except for me."
"At the same time … I was cautious and looked for opportunities to observe it. A few months have passed, and it's still the same. Therefore, I'm eighty percent sure that no one knows about it.
"I tried to open the restrictions there, but it's difficult for me to do it alone. Baole, if we work together, we'll have a better chance. Your cultivation is higher than mine, so you can have all the loot inside …"
"Half each!" Wang Baole waved his hand. He understood what Kong Dao was implying. He wanted to give Wang Baole more. If it had been someone he wasn't familiar with, that would have been the case. But Kong Dao was his brother. It was reasonable for him to take more, but Wang Baole couldn't bring himself to do such a thing.
Kongdao looked at Wang Baole for a moment, then shook his head and smiled. His heart was filled with warmth, and he didn't make a fuss about it. Instead, he explained everything he knew about the Immortal's cave. After some discussion, the two of them decided that this matter couldn't be delayed. Taking advantage of the darkening sky, they left the Immortal's cave.
Beneath the sea of fire, Wang Baole and Kongdao sped along in the spirit boat. Under Kongdao's guidance, they got closer and closer to their destination. Two hours later, they arrived at some ruins beneath the sea of fire.
The area was filled with chaotic ripples, and the ground was covered with fissures. Although the sea of fire had submerged the area, it was clear that almighty experts had once fought here. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an ancient battlefield. Wreckage could be seen, but most of it had been plundered, and the items left behind were of little value.
"This is the place, Baole. Come with me." After transmitting the message, Kongdao took control of the spirit boat and flew out. After circling the ancient battlefield a few times, they found one of the thousands of fissures on the ground. They immediately entered it. Wang Baole followed closely behind. Kongdao walked forward for a while, then walked out of the spirit boat. Enduring the intense heat and the burning pain in his body, he quickly pressed his palm against the wall beside him.
Instantly, the wall began to distort, and a crack appeared in the wall. Kong Dao hurriedly returned to the spirit boat, entered the crack, and continued onward.
Just like that, to Wang Baole's surprise, Kongdao shuttled back and forth, skillfully opening numerous cracks. Most of the cracks slowly closed after the two of them entered.
"How did this guy find this place?" Wang Baole had a strange expression on his face as he followed Kongdao to the depths of the ancient battlefield ruins. They entered a catacomb!
There was no sea of fire in this catacomb. The surroundings were awe-inspiring, and at the same time, there was a huge stone door on the wall in front of them!
Outside the stone door were two bat-like statues of stone beasts. One of them was missing its head, while the other was barely complete. There was a huge crack in its chest, and it stood motionless next to the door.
As if sensing Wang Baole's thoughts, Kongdao explained, then pointed at the door. "This is the place. Back then, I was chasing an Inferno Ardent Beast and found this place. Originally, this place was the nest of more than ten Inferno Ardent Beasts."
"There is a restriction on this door. According to my previous tests, it needs to be pushed open with great force. If it is pushed open for more than ten breaths of time, the stone statue will come back to life and attack all outsiders!
"Although I don't know how powerful this stone statue used to be, right now, it is comparable to the late Core Formation stage. Last time, I accidentally brought it back to life and used the life-saving treasure my foster father gave me to escape." Kongdao took a deep breath and looked at Wang Baole with anticipation in his eyes.
"What do you think we should do?"
