Time flew by. Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
Rumble!!!
On this day, the space of the Minor Thousand World suddenly trembled. The pitch-black Undying Mountain trembled, and an incomparably terrifying aura erupted from it. It destroyed the clouds in the sky, causing all the creatures in the Minor Thousand World to tremble and prostrate themselves in the direction of the Undying Mountain.
"Master (Emperor)!" Ye Fan and the others, who had been cultivating under the Comprehension Tea Tree, were startled awake by this aura. They all stood up and stared at the Undying Mountain, which was enveloped by a terrifying Emperor-level array.
The Undying Mountain seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist. Whether it was Ye Fan's God's Origin Eye or a Saint-level God Eye, he couldn't see what was inside.
They could only sense the supreme aura of the Extreme Dao within the array. A single strand of it could crush the world. Fortunately, there was an Emperor-level array outside, or else just the aura that erupted from it would be enough to heavily injure the Minor Thousand World and kill countless creatures.
After five years of reproduction, the creatures that Ye Xuan had sucked in from the mountain range had multiplied by several times, allowing this new Minor Thousand World to gain some vitality.
Under the expectant gazes of Ye Fan and the others, the surging aura from the Emperor Tier Magic Formation gradually receded. Then, the Emperor Tier Magic Formation outside vanished, and the Undying Mountain that could not be seen clearly once again appeared in front of everyone.
Only to see that the Undying Mountain was still as black as ink, towering into the clouds. At the edge of the mountain, a figure sat cross-legged. His aura was calm, as though he was a stone statue. But if one took a closer look, they would see that this figure was like an ancient star. Just by sitting there, it was as though he was suppressing the demonic mountain beneath him, exuding a shocking pressure.
"Master (Emperor)!" Seeing that the Emperor-level array had been removed, Ye Fan and the others quickly flew to the Undying Mountain and respectfully bowed to the seated figure.
"Mm!" When Ye Xuan opened his eyes, Ye Fan and the others felt as if a world was being opened in Ye Xuan's eyes, a universe was being born. His aura was shocking, and they all avoided his gaze, not daring to look at him.
"This time, I went into seclusion to refine weapons. I didn't expect that five years would pass in the blink of an eye. I've troubled you guys!" Ye Xuan said leisurely.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Ye Fan hurriedly said, "Master, what are you talking about? To be able to cultivate under the Tree of Enlightenment is a wonderful thing that many people don't even dare to dream of!"
"Yeah, this is an immortal divine herb. I don't even want to go out if I can cultivate here every day!" Duan De said with a smile.
Ye Xuan glanced at Duan De and smiled. "Well, since you like it so much, I'll allow you to stay here for another 1,000 years!"
"Ah?!?" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Duan De was dumbfounded. He was just flattering Ye Xuan. Even if he had to stay here for 10 years, he would probably go crazy, let alone 1,000 years.
He begged with a bitter face, "No, Emperor, I, no, I was wrong. Emperor, you're omnipotent, broad-minded, and benevolent …"
"Enough, if you say one more word, I'll let you stay here forever!" Hearing Duan De's nonsense, Ye Xuan interrupted him directly. Duan De quickly shut his mouth and stood aside with a wronged expression, not daring to say another word.
If Ye Xuan really wanted him to stay in this world, he would probably never be able to leave this world.
To him, this was worse than death, because there was no delicious food, no wine, no beauties here. Most importantly, there was no grave for him to dig.
Seeing the wronged expression on Duan De's face, Ye Fan, Pang Bo, and the rest didn't feel any sympathy. Instead, they all looked at him with glee, causing Duan De to gnash his teeth in hatred.
With regards to the temperament of these people, Ye Xuan had some understanding. Hence, he didn't bother with the methods they used to improve their relationship. Instead, he continued to glance at them and said, "Not bad, although your cultivation didn't improve, your cultivation base did."
With Ye Xuan's cultivation level, the cultivation level of Ye Fan and the others was as easy as reading the lines on the palm of his hand. Although their cultivation level had not improved in the past five years, their level had long surpassed their original level.
For example, Ye Fan. Initially, his cultivation base was only at the first layer of immortal-foundation, the sixth minor step. Now, his cultivation base was still the same, but his cultivation base was already at the second layer, the eighth minor step. As for Li Xiaoman and Zhang Ziling, they were originally at the ninth layer of the Dragon Transformation Realm. But now, their cultivation bases had already reached the fourth minor step of the first layer.
As to why their cultivation bases didn't improve, Ye Xuan also knew the reason. It was because they were currently in a minor thousand world and were restricted by the world.
Before this, it was already mentioned that because of the size of each world, there would be restrictions on one's cultivation base. For example, in Ye Xuan's minor thousand worlds, if he cultivated here, he would at most be at the Dragon Transformation Realm. If he wanted to break through, he would have to break through the void and ascend to another medium-sized world. If not, he would be suppressed in this world forever.
This was also one of the reasons why Ye Xuan and the rest were so anxious when they heard that Ye Xuan didn't exit seclusion for five years.
Naturally, it was just that his cultivation base didn't improve, but his cultivation base had nothing to do with the restrictions of the world.
As to why the world would restrict one's cultivation base, it was mainly because the great dao controlling the world was protecting itself. Because if an expert surpassing the level of the great dao was born in a world, the destructive prowess of this expert would be sufficient to destroy the great dao and the world itself. For the sake of not being destroyed, the great dao controlling the world would restrict one's cultivation base.
However, cultivation bases were different. The most important thing was still one's cultivation base, state of heart, comprehension of the great dao, etc. The destructive prowess of this aspect wouldn't be too great, and wasn't something the great dao could restrict.
In this minor thousand world, although their cultivation bases didn't improve, one must know that they were in the Undying Mountain after all.
What sort of place was the Undying Mountain? This was a sacred mountain that contained the origin of the universe. It was a celestial mountain that even Supremes yearned for but couldn't obtain. Moreover, there was an Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree in the mountain. Cultivating under the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree for four hours was equivalent to cultivating outside for a month. Moreover, every year, the Enlightened Ancient Tea Tree would produce 108 tea leaves. Drinking one of these tea leaves could help people comprehend the will of the great dao. After five years, a total of 540 tea leaves had been divided among them.
In such a cultivation environment, if one's cultivation base didn't improve, then one's talent for cultivation could be said to be simply hopeless.
