When they reached the area occupied by the Winged God Clan, the others prepared to leave.
Long Yu was the only one who needed to venture into the Winged God Clan's territory. The others didn't need to. However, the three from Longgui Empire were looking forward to Long Yu's trip.
"Young Master Long, your strength is obvious to all. You can kill the Shadow Pavilion's Young Master who is two realms higher than you. It shows that you have something special that we don't know about. I hope everything goes well for you."
Prime Minister Heng Yi said to Long Yu with a smile.
"Thank you for your kind words."
Long Yu nodded with a smile.
He knew that the Longgui Empire was eager for him to investigate all the details of the Winged God Clan's lair so that the Alliance of Five Emperors could send people to annihilate all the Winged God Clan's lairs.
After witnessing how Long Yu killed the Shadow Pavilion's Young Master, the three from Longgui Empire had high hopes for Long Yu.
"Then we'll wait for your good news."
Heng Yi, Zhan Tianyuan, and the white-haired old man all smiled and flew to the same spot, waiting for Long Yu to ascend to the Winged God Clan's territory.
The Heavenly Fragrance Empress left. Long Yu knew that she was going to deduce the location of the Shadow Pavilion's lair and seize all the resources in the Shadow Pavilion. At that time, half of these things would belong to Long Yu.
The dignified Heavenly Fragrance Empress wouldn't go back on her words. Long Yu felt that as long as he came back alive, he would definitely gain a lot.
It seemed that the three from Longgui Empire were going to wait below. Ye Ziwei didn't leave either. She was going to wait with the three from Longgui Empire for Long Yu to come out.
Long Yu didn't say much. He just glanced at Ye Ziwei, nodded at her, and flew straight up into the sky. Since the mission target was in the sky, there was no need for him to waste time below!
According to the usual practice, there would be many patrol squads around the lair. Long Yu had to find a patrol squad, disguise himself as a Winged God Clan's beast, and blend in.
This wasn't a difficult task for Long Yu. The outer patrol squad was only at the early-stage King Realm. Long Yu could instantly kill them with a raise of his hand.
Kill one target, disguise another, and blend in with the Winged God Clan. This was Long Yu's plan!
Not long after, Long Yu found three patrolling winged beasts. One was at the mid-stage King Realm, while the other two were at the early-stage King Realm. All of them were killed by Long Yu's divine ability.
During the battle, Long Yu had already used the Book of Shadows to scan the mid-stage king realm exotic beast. After killing the three fellows, Long Yu directly disguised himself as the exotic beast and flew higher into the sky.
Long Yu had learned a lot about the Winged God Clan's patrol mechanism from the Death Envoy. Using this mechanism, he easily bypassed most of the patrol squads.
Even if a small number of them saw Long Yu, they only thought that he was a lone Winged God Clan's beast. No beast would be interested in him.
Disguising himself as a Winged God Clan's beast was a new experience for Long Yu. At the very least, he had to control the Winged God Clan's beast to fly. It was difficult at the beginning. After getting familiar with it, he didn't expose himself.
He continued to fly higher and higher into the sky. The higher he flew, the higher the cultivation of the winged beasts he met. Before long, when he was about five or six thousand li high in the sky, Long Yu saw an Emperor realm beast!
"An Emperor Realm mutated beast has appeared outside the lair, which means that this place is extremely important to the Winged God Clan. Could it be that the treasure of the Winged God Clan that the Nine Nether Dragon Emperor hid is nearby?"
Long Yu pondered in his heart. Very quickly, he discovered that even emperor realm beasts were unable to see through his disguise. This allowed a huge weight to be lifted from his heart, and his entire person became much more relaxed.
There was still a long distance to the lair. Long Yu had nothing to do. He sank his consciousness into his dantian and began to observe his inner world.
When he was fighting with the young master of the Dark Shadow Pavilion, Long Yu was fighting for time. He didn't have the time to observe his inner world. Now, he finally found the time.
In any case, there wasn't any danger. He didn't need to spend any effort before he reached the lair.
With the seven great Sacred Ability Seeds or Sacred Ability Fruits as a foundation, Long Yu's body gave birth to a World Seed when he was in the Six Daos Sacred Ability Realm. Then, Long Yu stepped into the Seven Daos Sacred Ability Realm and used the power of the seven Sacred Ability Fruits as a foundation to absorb a vast amount of Spiritual Qi. He stimulated the World Seed to explode in his body, ultimately forming an inner world.
At this moment, Long Yu's dantian was his inner world. It contained the seven fruits of divine ability, his true spirit, and so on.
The seven fruits of divine ability became the seven pillars of his inner world!
In the pitch-black and empty inner world, the seven Divine Art Fruits guarded at different corners, supporting the entire inner world. One could feel that the stronger the seven Divine Arts were, the stronger the power of the entire inner world.
The reason why Long Yu didn't use up all his energy after fighting with the young master of the Dark Shadow Pavilion for so long was because he had three high-grade divine ability fruits, which made the power of his inner world very dense. Under this situation, using up all his energy was a very difficult thing to do.
"Everyone's inner world is supported by the seven fruits of divine ability"
Long Yu recalled what the Envoy of Death told him. That's why the entire Shen Wu world has seven pillars, which are the seven fruits of the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor when he was still alive.
These seven pillars are also known as the seven forbidden grounds in the Alliance of Five Emperors. No one can enter any of them, because once they do, not even their bones will be left.
Because of that, the stronger a cultivator's natural thaumaturgy, the stronger their inner world. For cultivators of the Emperor Road Secret Realm, natural thaumaturgy is the foundation. Only by building a solid foundation of natural thaumaturgy can they have a powerful inner world.
On this point, Long Yu believes that he can do it better than anyone else.
"When a natural thaumaturgy reaches the 7th stage and becomes a high-grade thaumaturgy, if you want to continue improving, you can only rely on the power of your inner world to refine it. This is the only way to turn a thaumaturgy into an Imperial Path"
The Envoy of Death also told Long Yu how to turn a high-grade thaumaturgy into a true Imperial Path.
Only with the support of a true Imperial Path can a cultivator's inner world become more stable. In outer space, almost every Emperor realm cultivator's inner world is supported by the seven great Imperial Paths.
But in Shen Wu world, there are very few people who can comprehend the Imperial Path. Up until now, Long Yu has only seen the Tian Xiang Emperor and Ye Ziwei comprehend the Imperial Path.
Imperial Path, Emperor Path, Innate Thaumaturgy's final evolution is at these levels. As they evolve, their power will also become stronger and their inner world will become more stable.
Until all seven great Innate Thaumaturgy evolve into Emperor Path, they will have the foundation to break through and become an existence even stronger than an Emperor realm cultivator!
And Shen Wu world cannot tolerate such an existence.
In Shen Wu world, a peak Emperor realm cultivator is already the strongest existence.
Long Yu checked his inner world and found that it has a circumference of 70 miles, which isn't too far away from a circumference of 100 miles. With a few more pills to absorb, Long Yu will be able to expand it to a circumference of 100 miles, allowing him to reach Emperor realm middle stage.
But that's not possible right now. He needs to think of a way to complete the Alliance of Five Emperors's scouting mission before that happens.
"Begin refining, Nine Underworld Dragon Breath"
Long Yu circulated the power of his inner world to refine the Nine Underworld Dragon Breath's Thaumaturgy fruit. This process doesn't require too much thought from Long Yu, it only takes a single thought.
Right now, Long Yu's inner world isn't particularly strong, so the refining speed isn't very fast. But he's not in a hurry.
An inner world can only give birth to other substances after it has a circumference of 10,000 miles, which can then be modified by a cultivator into an environment suitable for humans to live in, allowing other living beings to live within.
The more living beings there are in the inner world, the stronger the inner world will be. And this can only be achieved when the inner world has a circumference of 10,000 miles and has fused with the True Spirit to give birth to the Power of Origin, which is when one reaches Emperor realm late stage.
This is also why when Yu Hanxin brought Long Yu to Heavenly Mandate Island, the Heavenly Prison Thunder Pool erupted and the entire Heavenly Mandate Island was almost destroyed. At that time, Yu Hanxin put everyone on Heavenly Mandate Island into her own inner world.
Just from that time alone, it's not hard to imagine how much Yu Hanxin's strength has increased!
Of course, there are quite a few martial cultivators and yao cultivators on Heavenly Mandate Island, but their overall strength isn't that strong, so the increase in strength for Yu Hanxin is far from being too strong.
But it's different for Long Yu.
Once Long Yu reaches Emperor realm late stage, he can capture tens of thousands of exotic beasts of the Secret Realm, Emperor Realm, and even Emperor Realm from the Asura Ancient Palace and put them into his inner world, allowing them to live in the inner world.
At the same time, Long Yu's inner world will become extremely powerful!
Of course, it must be noted that not everything can be put into the inner world. If Long Yu dares to put an Emperor-level exotic beast in his inner world, that Emperor-level exotic beast will definitely smash Long Yu's inner world!
Even if it's an Emperor-level exotic beast, it's still quite dangerous for Long Yu. But if Long Yu subdued those exotic beasts in advance and then put them into the inner world, there won't be any danger.
These are all Long Yu's cultivation plans, but there's no way to realize them now.
He thought about his cultivation plan for a while and soon found that he's arrived at the first nest of the exotic beasts of the Winged God Race.
It's a building that looks like a beehive, floating in the air without moving. Countless eight-clawed exotic beasts of the Winged God Race are bustling in and out of it.
Long Yu raised his head and saw that the entire sky was blue. There were twelve nests of the Winged God Race that looked similar to each other, scattered all over the sky.
And in the endless sky, there's an incomparably dark and deep whirlpool that seems to occupy the entire sky!
Long Yu knows that this is one of the seven forbidden areas of the Shenwu World. No matter which corner of the Shenwu World you're from, as long as you fly 10,000 miles into the sky, you'll be able to see this deep and dark whirlpool.
Normally, the sun and moon would rise and set, and everything would be normal. However, only when a Martial Cultivator flew ten thousand miles high in the sky would he be able to see a pitch-black and deep whirlpool of air at an unknown altitude.
