On a desolate mountain peak in the East and West corners of the Dead Soul Mountain range.
Shi Yan sat cross-legged on the mountain peak. His blood-red pupils gradually disappeared, and his visage returned to normal.
The War Devil, the Ghost Hunter, the Ice Cold Flame, the King of Demonic Insects, and the Holy Spirit God were surrounding him, protecting him in silence in case of any sudden danger.
The moonlight was like mercury, shining brightly. The night sky was decorated with many stars. Starlight dots gathered, quietly flowing towards him.
Sitting cross-legged for four hours, Shi Yan opened his eyes, taking a deep breath.
His power had been restored. His ruthless state of mind had been stabilized after a while. His Sea of Consciousness was like a bright mirror, shining everywhere.
Everything was quiet and peaceful.
The Ice Cold Flame sent him a message. "Are you done?"
Smiling, Shi Yan nodded gently. "I'm okay. I didn't expect that I would have to urge the Third Sky of Rampage in this battle. Lie Feng isn't ordinary, indeed. He's worthy of being the new generation of the Devil Valley.
Indeed, he's dangerous. "Lie Feng was a Demon Seed, and he would inherit the Devil Valley in the future. He had been cultivating ascetically in the thirty-six Exterminating Caves for many years. He had mastered the secret techniques of the Devil Valley. He could be said to be the most outstanding warrior of the new generation of the Divine Great Land. Although he didn't use the secret treasures of the Devil Valley, his power was still formidable.
Shi Yan had only the Sky Realm cultivation base. The reason why he could gain the upper hand against Lie Feng was that he had been cultivating assiduously for many years.
The negative power, the explosive power of his body, the refined Profound Qi, and the complicated and profound Martial Skills made his overall strength much more ferocious than an ordinary person's.
"It's good that you're alright. When you left, many people had malicious intentions towards you." The Ice Cold Flame simply described the attitude of the warriors in the Precious Tool Valley.
Shi Yan's face was cold. He snorted, but he understood it clearly.
An ordinary man was innocent, but he would be guilty if he had a treasure. Not only did he have the Ice Cold Flame and the Earth Flame, but he also had the King of Demonic Insects, which was an evil creature. To the warriors of the Precious Tool Valley and the Spirit Potion Valley, it was normal that people coveted his mysterious treasures.
Shi Yan understood that after this battle, his name would be spread out in the Dead Soul Mountain range, and the fact that he had great treasures with him would not be kept a secret.
If the aura of the War Devil, the Ghost Hunter, and the other strange creatures weren't too strong, the others in the valley would have attacked them directly.
This was human nature. The world of martial artists was filled with plunder and greed. Many people could not avoid their inner desires.
Honestly speaking, if it was him, if he saw so many great treasures on a single person, he might also have some thoughts and secretly conspire.
The Spirit Potion Valley and the Precious Tool Valley had experts from the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Valley. They also had alchemists and blacksmiths like Li Zheng Rong and Ke Da. If they wanted to capture him, he would just walk into their trap if he returned now.
What's more, the experts of the two valleys weren't just limited to these.
According to Lin Ya Qi, the True God Realm experts of the Radiant God Cult, the Pure Land, and the Devil Valley would descend shortly. They would have a bloody battle with the dead souls in the Dead Soul Mountain range. At that time, the Dead Soul Mountain range would become a massive battlefield. No one could stay out of it.
If he stayed in the valley at that time, the War Devil and the Ghost Hunter couldn't give him a sense of security. Instead of that, it was better to leave earlier.
Although the dead souls were dangerous, as long as he tried his best to avoid them, he could avoid them. This mountain range was immensely vast, with so many peaks. It wasn't hard to find a desolate mountain to hide for a year or so.
He needed time.
Sitting quietly on the mountain peak, Shi Yan contemplated. After a while, he made up his mind.
"I want to find a safe and remote place to cultivate ascetically for a while. Right here in this mountain range." Shi Yan sent the message to the Ice Cold Flame. "Is there a good place?"
"This place is good. I've sensed. There shouldn't be any dead souls around."
"Alright, let's choose this place."
Shi Yan stood up and released his Soul Consciousness, covering hundreds of miles. He didn't find any sign of dead souls, so he relaxed a little bit.
He dug a cave and hid in it. Then, he used thick rocks to block the cave.
While he was fighting with Lie Feng, he had lost his mind and killed some warriors. The Essence Qi of those warriors had been converted and absorbed into his body.
At this moment, his Essence Qi, Soul, and Qi had reached the peak. The strange power in his body was replenished.
"There are demonic beasts in the surrounding mountains. Further away, there are some cultivating materials suitable for us. We can go out and take a walk." The Ice Cold Flame had become the spokesperson of the strange creature next to him. "Staying with you isn't always good for our growth."
Shi Yan was surprised. He thought for a while and then nodded. "You guys should be careful."
He opened the stone door.
The Ice Cold Flame, the Earth Flame, and the Holy Spirit God flew out. The Holy Spirit God had used Bo Xun's white bone body as its real body. Its bones were like white jade, sparkling and translucent. Its flying speed was relatively slow. While it was moving, the sound of its joints colliding could be heard.
It had spent a lot of energy to refine this ancient body in the Blood Vein Ring. However, from the current progress, it seemed that it needed more time to adapt to this skeleton body.
The Ghost Hunter, the King of Demonic Insects, and the Devouring Gold Silkworm also flew out after a while.
ShiYan was astounded, looking at the three strange creatures leaving. He was bewildered. Could it be that these three living creatures were also adapted to the Dead Soul Mountain range?
Only the War Devil stayed.
Frowning, Shi Yan contemplated for a while. As he was about to use the Original Soul Pellet to restore his Soul Consciousness, he suddenly found the Five Devils in his Sea of Consciousness getting restless.
"You guys..."
After the transformation, the Five Devils had their intellect awakened. Although they couldn't communicate with him directly, they could still send him vague thoughts.
The Five Devils also had to leave for a while.
Shi Yan could sense the Five Devils' thoughts clearly. He was stunned for a while, then forced a smile. "Be careful. To you, those dead souls are the best tonic pellets. However, they aren't stupid. If you encounter a high-realm one, I'm afraid you can't endure it."
The Five Devils turned into five beams of gray light and quietly disappeared from the entrance of the cave, leaving no trace behind.
The connection between him and the Five Devils hadn't been cut off. Within hundreds of miles, he could clearly sense the Five Devils' exact location and intention.
However, as the Five Devils moved further away, the connection between him and the Five Devils gradually weakened.
The Ice Cold Flame, the Earth Flame, the King of Demonic Insects, the Ghost Hunter, and the Holy Spirit God had the same situation as the Five Devils. These strange creatures either had the soul connection with him or had the Immortal Blood in their bodies. All of them had a subtle connection with him. This kind of connection wasn't permanent.
Once the distance reached a certain limit, the connection would gradually weaken until it disappeared completely.
Two hours later.
Shi Yan had lost all traces of the strange creatures. His host soul couldn't sense them, and his Soul Consciousness couldn't communicate with them.
All of a sudden, he felt empty and lost.
The feeling of loneliness couldn't help but ripple in his heart, and he couldn't get rid of it.
Along the way, these strange creatures had rarely separated from him. Gradually, he had considered them as a part of his life, his family, and his companions.
Because of them, Shi Yan had never felt lonely. He had never thought that he was fighting alone.
All of a sudden, when these strange creatures left, he immediately had a strange thought. His heart was empty, as if the most important things in his life were about to leave him.
Although he knew that those strange creatures wouldn't leave for a long time, he was still worried. He was like a father watching his children leave, worried about them, afraid that something bad would happen to them.
This kind of emotion made his mind restless. It was hard for his Sea of Consciousness to be empty. He hesitated for a long time, but he couldn't enter the right state.
Until the morning of the second day, when a beam of sunlight shone into the cave, blooming a golden light in front of him, he woke up. His dispirited state of mind seemed to burn away the haze in just a blink of an eye, and his mind became clear.
A kind of growth in his mind silently jumped into his heart. He seemed to understand the truth of life, and his heart was relaxed.
The Blacksmith's Secrets of Success flew out, floating in front of him. His Soul Consciousness connected to the hollow soul, and his spirit and spirit fused with it. He entered the formation once again, arriving at the location of the Teleportation Formation. He started to study the marvelous techniques and complicated lines. He put his heart and soul into comprehending the meaning behind them.
The Teleportation Formation was the direct application of the mysteries of space. It used the technique to guide the space power, and used the nodes to urge the energy of the crystals. In just a blink of an eye, Shi Yan could teleport directly from one coordinate to the left.
The Teleportation Formation in the Blacksmith's Secrets of Success was the quintessence, as all the mysteries of the Teleportation Formation were hidden in it.
Strange beams of light wove back and forth, forming bright nodes. The distance between the nodes wasn't the same, but they all bore the responsibility of connecting space. Each node sparkled with the power of space, and the halos on the periphery were the energy transmission torches that urged the power to move.
As his mind sank into the formation, Shi Yan forgot himself, as if he was intoxicated, as if he had fallen into bedevilment.
His understanding of the Teleportation Formation was getting deeper and deeper. His understanding of space power had finally reached the threshold. Vaguely, he could touch a beam of mysterious space power from the formation of the Teleportation Formation...
Precious Tool Valley.
Li Zheng Rong, Ke Da, and the others were gathering in the Tool Hall. Xue Mu and Ya Lie looked at Feng Biao, who was covered in blood. They exchanged looks, but didn't know what to say.
Outside the Tool Hall, Yu Le, Luo Yue, and Lie Feng were discussing in a low voice, their faces astounded.
Shi Yan had appeared out of nowhere. It was the first time these arrogant fellows from the seven ancient factions felt the pressure, a pressure as heavy as a mountain!
Shi Yan had only the Sky Realm cultivation base, but Lie Feng couldn't do anything to him. He was even in a disadvantageous position. Such a change had startled everybody.
"Is he from the Endless Sea? Are you sure? "Ke Da rubbed his chin, his eyes filled with disbelief." Is he the disciple of some old man? We all know that in the Divine Great Land, not only the disciples of the seven ancient factions can be that intimidating. "
"He's from the Endless Sea," Li Zheng Rong snorted. "That kid Chang Feng replied. He said that he's from the Yang family in the Endless Sea. Perhaps you guys haven't heard about the Yang family. This family is the strongest force in the Endless Sea. They're really extraordinary."
"It's the Endless Sea …" Ke Da muttered. The barrier in his heart seemed to be cleared. "Then it's easy. As long as he's not the disciple of those old men, we can move him with enough sincerity, right? I also need a drop of the Life Original Fluid. I've wanted to reach the True God Realm for many years. "
Xue Mu and Ya Lie had hot eyes.
