It was as if a giant hole had been opened in the grayish-brown sky that was filled with dark clouds.
The blazing sunlight, like scarlet red water, poured down in torrents.
Wisps of ancient sword intent and sword light that wandered in the cracks in the earth once again went dormant and disappeared into the depths of the earth.
Lightning bolts swam in the depths of the surging clouds, and some of them fell.
Some of the remaining outsider souls and demon spirits were instantly annihilated.
The lightning bolts targeted the more powerful outsider souls and demon spirits, while the weaker ones were ignored.
Even more lightning bolts were beyond the grand spell formation's control, and shot straight up into the heavens, where they disappeared into unknown parts of the starry river.
Now that the spatial tunnel at the bottom of the Soul-refining Lake had been sealed, the Heaven-Sealing Soul-refining Formation, which had a long history, seemed to be unwilling to consume too much of its soul power.
After Fan He's death, the remaining Silver Moon Empire cultivators around the Soul-refining Lake were surprisingly calm.
Su Xiangtian also remained silent. From time to time, he would glance over at Li Yuangui, who had summoned his black tortoise to devour the remaining outsider souls and demon spirits in the forbidden land, wondering how he should communicate with Yu Yuan after the grand spell formation was deactivated.
"Take care of yourself, girl."
The burly man with a human head and a dragon body took a deep look at Zhao Yafu after seeing the giant holes in the sky.
After a moment of hesitation, he shot a glance at Su Xiangtian and said, "Let me give you a piece of advice. Yu Yuan, don't do anything stupid."
As soon as he finished speaking, his long, dragon-like body suddenly started twisting.
Wisps of refined spiritual power converged on Nie Tian's body, along with the discarnate souls of the Deviant Souls.
With a loud dragon roar, he flew in the direction of the Scarlet Sun Empire like the soul of his Soul-splitting Stick.
Only the Blood God elder, Anzan Shan, and the streaks of blood-colored light that Li Yuangui had summoned remained in the sky. They were still devouring the remaining outsider souls, and sharing the soul food in the forbidden land with the black tortoise.
For some reason, the outsider souls that had originally come from the Silver Moon Empire through the entrance of the Fallen Moon Forbidden Land all chose to go in the direction of the Scarlet Sun Empire.
At the bottom of the lake.
Yu Yuan closed his eyes and felt his Cauldron being cleansed by the pure and refined Soul Energy.
Wisps of tiny sword light flew back and forth in his meridians, bones, and internal organs.
Even though he had the Nascent Embryo Body, beads of sweat started to seep out of his pores without him realizing it.
The beads of sweat were turbid, and each drop seemed to carry impurities from his body.
A human's flesh, blood, and bones, from the moment they were born, from the moment they began to breathe, and from the moment they began to practice cultivation, they would gradually be filled with impurities.
As long as one was human, nothing could change that.
The air he breathed, the food and meat he swallowed, and the spiritual energy he absorbed during cultivation were all impure and impure.
In the Spirit Nurture realm, when a cultivator strengthened their body and toughened their flesh and blood, it was also a process of cleansing their marrow and bones. They had to expel as much of the impurities and dregs that had fused with their flesh and blood as one.
Only in this way could one's body become stronger and the circulation of spiritual energy become faster.
There were three stages in the Spirit Nurture stage: the early stage refined one's meridians and bones, the middle stage refined one's blood and muscles, and the late stage refined one's internal organs.
Yu Yuan sensed the wisps of sword intent moving through his meridians, bones, muscles, and internal organs, and knew that this was a thorough cleansing.
The sword intent seemed to be expelling the impurities and dregs that had been in his bones, muscles, and internal organs for more than ten years without him realizing it.
Even though he was in a muddled state and didn't deliberately practice the Evil Demon Body Tempering Incantation, he knew that after this thorough cleansing, his Spirit Nurture stage would take another step forward.
WHOOSH!
As he breathed, wisps of sparkling light suddenly flew towards him from the bottom of the Soulrefining Pool.
Yuan Lianyao, who was standing close to him, could see with great clarity that wisps of sparkling light instantly entered his mouth, nose, and pores.
Those wisps of sparkling light contained the purest spiritual power and extraordinary flesh aura.
Yuan Lianyao's face turned pale with fright.
That was because she sensed the aura of the Ghost Ape's blood from one of those wisps of sparkling light.
Not long ago, the Ghost Ape had been killed by numerous sword intents. Its enormous body had been split into pieces and thrown into a crevice in the earth.
The Ghost Ape, who had almost recovered to the seventh grade, had died abruptly and without any warning.
After such a powerful demon died, its blood would be condensed into a vast amount of flesh power.
A wisp of sparkling light actually contained the aura of the Ghost Ape, didn't it?
With these thoughts in mind, the expression of the city governor of Dark Moon City grew uneasy.
After a while, her expression flickered again.
Wisps of green sparkling light that looked like tiny green snakes that were as fine as hair slithered into Yu Yuan's nostrils like lightning bolts and disappeared in a flash.
Yuan Lianyao could clearly sense the aura of the demonic tree from the wisps of green sparkling light.
That aura was full of life force and contained the essence of nature, as if it could nourish all living beings.
The demonic tree, which had been brought back from some unknown heaven and earth by the ancient god of golden elephant and fed on the blood of numerous demon beasts in the Goblin Temple, had also sunk into the crevice in the earth after being killed by the sword intent.
She had assumed that after the demonic tree's soul was absorbed by the pool walls, its strange demonic energy would dissipate from this heaven and earth.
Who would have thought that the crevice in the earth would secretly devour it and help Yu Yuan strengthen his body in another way at this moment.
"There seems to be a magnetic field or spell formation in the depths of the crevice in this heaven and earth."
Yuan Lianyao went blank for a while before realizing that Yu Yuan, as a sword bearer, would soon break through into the Spirit Nurturing stage under the nourishment of this forbidden land.
After observing for a while, she sensed the flesh aura of the Ghost Ape and the demonic tree.
Even more sparkling light disappeared into Yu Yuan's body. She didn't know what kind of creature they belonged to or how rare they were.
The cultivation of the Spirit Nurturing stage was a process of destruction and reconstruction. The wisps of sword intent that flew into his bones and internal organs could start a process of destruction.
The sparkling light that flowed into his body would repair it and strengthen it again and again.
Destroying and repairing at the same time was the core and essence of the cultivation of the Spirit Nurturing stage.
Those sword intents, those nourishing vital energies, how sharp, how boundless, how abundant were they?
If Yu Yuan couldn't quickly break through into the Spirit Nurturing stage under the nourishment of such power, he wouldn't have been recognized by the ancient sword soul in this forbidden land.
"City Lord Yuan."
Su Xiangtian pondered for a long time before saying, "Why don't you come up for a chat?"
At this moment, all the people and outsider souls that could threaten Yuan Lianyao had disappeared.
She couldn't help Yu Yuan at the bottom of the Soul Refining Pool. With the sword mark on the pool wall, she believed that no one in this forbidden land would dare to go to the bottom of the pool and hurt Yu Yuan.
Fan He's death could intimidate everyone.
"Okay."
Yuan Lianyao nodded gently, summoned red lotuses, and flew to the top of the Soul Refining Pool.
She nervously looked at the sword mark on the wall of the Soul Refining Pool.
There was nothing unusual about the sword mark.
Yuan Lianyao, who was secretly relieved, finally landed outside the pool again with the help of the red lotuses. She stood between Zhao Yafu and Su Xiangtian.
"You guys make way for me, and you too." Su Xiangtian glanced at the other people from the Silver Moon Empire and smiled at Zhao Yafu. "City Lord Yuan and I have a few words to talk about in private."
"Oh." Zhao Yafu took the lead and left.
The other experts from the Silver Moon Empire knew how powerful Su Xiangtian was, so they nodded and dispersed.
After everyone left, Su Xiangtian took a deep breath and shouted, "Yu Yuan, is he really Yu Yuan?"
