He had obtained eighty thousand Yang Crystals not long after arriving at the World of Immortals, and he still had more than half of them left. Adding the ten thousand Yang Crystals that he had split with Miling, it was enough for his wives and friends to cultivate for quite some time.
As for the few hundred Life Pearls, Miling naturally didn't take any of them because they weren't of high quality. After all, most of the credit for obtaining so many Yang Crystals and Life Pearls should be given to Xiao Lingyu.
Now, Xiao Lingyu had no choice but to consider the problem of his own cultivation.
Ordinary cultivators could use Yang Crystals and Life Pearls to cultivate in the Nine Heavens of Immortals. As long as there were enough Yang Crystals and Life Pearls, coupled with years of comprehension and cultivation, one could reach the peak of the Nine Heavens of Immortals sooner or later.
However, Xiao Lingyu was currently at the Tenth Cycle Chaos Creation Stage. In order to cultivate in this stage, one needed to strengthen the Chaos Origin Force.
In terms of realm, one needed to continuously strengthen one's understanding of the more profound Chaos Origin Force.
When he was in the God Realm, Xiao Lingyu had a set of cultivation methods that he had thoroughly researched long ago. At that time, he had an inner world and could draw upon the power of nature on a large scale, so it wasn't difficult for him to strengthen the Chaos Origin Force. However, he was still unable to communicate with the power of nature in the World of Immortals.
As a result, he couldn't use the method that he had designed in the God Realm to increase his power.
However, the increase of the soul realm was a very elusive and mysterious cultivation method, and there seemed to be no shortcuts.
While recuperating, Xiao Lingyu was also thinking hard.
No matter where he went, the wind would not stop. Now that he had killed the Yun Family's Third Young Master, Yun Mo, the Yun Family's revenge would definitely come soon. He couldn't continue to cultivate step by step because the Yun Family would definitely not give him that much time.
Before he finished sorting out the cultivation methods, the Yun Family's revenge had already arrived.
Less than a month after returning from the sea, Xiao Lingyu's injuries hadn't stabilized yet. One night at midnight, the originally quiet courtyard suddenly trembled.
Obviously, there were experts attacking the courtyard and trying to break the formation.
Xiao Lingyu and Miling came out of the room. Xiao Lingyu's wives and friends also went to the big tree in the middle of the courtyard.
"They clearly knew that there was a formation protecting this place, yet they still attacked. The other party must have a Nirvana Realm expert. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to break through the formation in this house," Miling said with a frown.
Xiao Lingyu didn't say anything. He took out some special materials and walked around the courtyard.
Xiao Lingyu also began to set up a formation. Her goal was naturally to reinforce and stabilize the original formation.
When the house was attacked, the city guards who were patrolling the city quickly rushed over.
Among the city guards, there were also Nirvana Realm experts as commanders. Before they approached the house, they had already locked onto the few black-clothed cultivators with their Divine Sense.
Although the mansion's array formation had already been breached, a group of over 30 city guards had already arrived before the mansion.
The battle immediately began. The city guards had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers. The black-clothed cultivators had no choice but to retreat. However, they were chased down by the city guards.
The commotion here was huge. Just as one wave of city guards chased down the black-clothed cultivators, another wave of city guards quickly arrived and surrounded the house.
"Luckily, the city guards reacted quickly."
Miling finally relaxed. If the city guards had come a little later, all of the cultivators in the house would have died.
"With the Yun Family's wealth, it shouldn't be difficult to bribe the city guards." Xiao Lingyu was a little confused.
If he was the one who carried out the assassination, he would definitely bribe the city guards first and make them come a little later.
"Hehe, it's not easy to bribe the city guards. The city guards of the Gourd City are all carefully selected, and they are only loyal to the City Lord Mansion. They only obey the orders of the city guard commander and the City Lord. Their treatment is not worse than that of the guards of the Yun Family and the Sang Family. Usually, they don't face too many difficulties, especially the commander level city guards. Most of them are Nirvana Realm warriors. They won't easily accept bribes from any forces in the city. If the city guard can be easily bribed, how can the City Lord's Estate not worry? "Miling shook his head and smiled.
Xiao Lingyu nodded with understanding, and then he asked. "How many Rebirth Realm experts does the Cloud Clan and Sang Clan possess?"
Miling replied, "I'm not sure about that. However, a conservative estimate is that the two families have at least five Nirvana Realm experts, but definitely not more than ten. The City Lord's Estate doesn't have many Nirvana Realm experts, but the City Lord and the city guard commander are extremely powerful. The two of them are enough to intimidate all the forces on Gourd Island. In fact, there is a ban in Gourd City, which is that Nirvana Realm experts are not allowed to fight in the city. This ban is even stricter than the ban on fighting on the surface. If large forces like the Yun and Sang Families dare to fight or bully ordinary cultivators in the city, the City Lord's Estate and the city guards may ignore it. However, if a Nirvana Realm expert fights in the city, the City Lord's Estate and the city guards will hunt him down. At this moment, even if the City Lord hasn't made a move, the commander must have received the news. "
"In that case, the Yun Family will have to pay a big price for their revenge." Xiao Lingyu smiled.
"Gourd City is actually controlled by a large force from the inland. They won't be afraid of the Yun Family." Miling nodded.
The city guards outside surrounded the house until dawn before retreating. A Nirvana Realm expert from the City Lord's Estate set up the broken formation and restriction in the house again.
The expert didn't say anything. After setting up the formation and restriction, he quietly left.
When the sky brightened, the steward of the Awakening God Tower also came. When he heard that the enmity between Xiao Lingyu and the Yun Family had deepened, his pale face didn't have much of a change in expression. Instead, he helped to strengthen the restrictions and formations in the courtyard.
Although the Yun Family's revenge ended in failure, it also showed the intensity and determination of the Yun Family's revenge.
Even a Nirvana Realm expert was mobilized. It was clear that the Yun Family was determined to obtain this house. After this failure, they might dare to come again.
The next time they came, there would be even more experts.
In a secret room deep in the Yun Family Estate, the Yun Family Patriarch's expression was very gloomy.
He just received news that the men of sacrifice sent by the Yun Family, including the Nirvana Realm expert, were all killed by the city guards.
These men of sacrifice were secretly trained by the Yun Family. They didn't appear in Gourd City, so the Yun Family wasn't worried that the city guards would come looking for trouble.
"Father, I'm afraid that revenge like this will not make up for the losses," the Yun Family's second young master said.
"Yun Jiang, do you have any good suggestions?" the Yun Family Patriarch asked.
"Father, I feel that this matter can only be slowly planned. Don't cause too much trouble in the city. Although the City Lord's Estate doesn't have evidence of us taking action, they will definitely suspect us. They might even think that this is our Yun Family's doing. This will definitely make the City Lord's Estate feel that our Yun Family is too presumptuous and we don't care about them, "Yun Jiang replied.
"Hehe, second brother's words are equivalent to not saying anything. Third brother died so tragically. If our Yun Family can't even get rid of the culprit, I'm afraid that more and more cultivators from Gourd Island will attack our Yun Family outside the city in the future."
Yun Hai was also in the secret room. He then said to his father, "Father, I feel that our Yun Family can't stop because we want everyone to know and see the truth. If anyone dares to go against our Yun Family, even if they hide in the city, our Yun Family will dare to and can withstand the pressure from the City Lord's Estate and the city guards to kill them. Only then will we be able to intimidate those with evil intentions and not let the Sang Family see us as a joke!"
His two sons' words made sense. The Yun Family Patriarch was in a difficult position. However, the one who was killed was his most beloved son. Under the burning hatred, he was more inclined to the opinion of his eldest son, Yun Hai.
"We've already lost a Nirvana Realm cultivator today. If we continue to attack, even if we can successfully kill the culprit, we'll lose another Nirvana Realm cultivator. If another accident happens, we'll become a joke to other families. If we fail today, the City Lord's Estate will definitely increase the security of that residence. Father, please reconsider. "Yun Family's second young master, Yun Jiang, said very rationally.
After all, he was the Patriarch of the Yun Family and had to consider the future of the Yun Family. The Patriarch of the Yun Family, who had just lost his beloved son, finally calmed down quite a bit. At this moment, he even had a thought. His second son was more suitable to take over his position than his eldest son.
The Patriarch of the Yun Family's expression fluctuated. After muttering to himself for a long time, he said, "Let's let that scoundrel be free for a while. Send someone to keep a close eye on him. As long as he leaves that residence, we have to completely grasp his every move. If he dares to leave the city, hmph!"
After waiting for a few years in Miling's residence, Xiao Lingyu gradually relaxed. The Yun Family's fiercer revenge that he imagined didn't come.
At present, there were still a few dozen years until the Awakening God Tower's shift. When he had nothing to do, Xiao Lingyu would naturally discuss matters of cultivation with Miling, his wives, and friends.
From Miling, his wives, and friends, Xiao Lingyu learned that the reason why absorbing the Life Pearls of those demonic beasts could increase one's cultivation level was because those Life Pearls contained the demonic beasts' comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth and the laws of nature.
If a cultivator at the Fifth Celestial Layer of Longevity wanted to advance to the Sixth Celestial Layer of Longevity, he would need six Yang Attribute and six Moon Attribute Life Pearls. With so many Life Pearls that were higher than the cultivator's current cultivation level, it was naturally enough to greatly increase the cultivator's soul realm.
Those demonic beasts in the Realm of Longevity, whether they were sea beasts, ferocious beasts, or flying beasts, all cultivated for a very long time. Even if their intelligence wasn't high, such a long period of time allowed them to have a certain degree of comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth. And those comprehensions were also useful to cultivators.
