On a small path in the mountains, the sun was rising.
Right now, it was early in the morning. The mountain was covered in mist and the trees and flowers were faintly discernible. Through the rays of the rising sun, everything was reflected in one's eyes.
Li Yue spent the night here. He didn't know the name of the mountain, so he stayed there for the night.
"Hu!"
On an old tree, Li Yue sat cross-legged between the intertwining branches as he opened his eyes.
After a night of cultivation, some of the injuries on his body were completely healed. His internal organs that were injured by the Heaven Lacking Saint Lord had already recovered and his cultivation base seemed to have improved slightly.
This was very rare. After all, the higher one's cultivation base was, the harder it was to improve. Now that there was some improvement, Li Yue naturally felt joy in his heart.
"The seventh-level of immortal-foundation is truly very powerful."
He mumbled to himself. Before this, the Heaven Lacking Saint Lord wanted to capture him completely but he was forced back by a single punch from Qin Wentian.
Although this was the case, Li Yue didn't feel any excitement in his heart.
Being forced back didn't mean that he could defeat the Heaven Lacking Saint Lord. Compared to the Heaven Lacking Saint Lord, the current him was still much weaker.
However, it was impossible for one's cultivation base to rise in a single step. This was destined to be a long and arduous process.
Right now, Li Yue was at the fifth-level of immortal-foundation and he had just broken through not too long ago. If he wanted to break through again, he needed to comprehend the dao and accumulate experience.
And all these required time.
He mustn't rush things.
"If I cultivate bitterly, I would need at least tens of years before I can break through again. And if I want to reach the seventh-level or eighth-level of immortal-foundation, I would need even more time."
Li Yue estimated. Even if his cultivation path was smooth and his comprehension of the dao was smooth, he would still need hundreds of years before he could break through again.
This was the most ideal plan. In truth, it was impossible to predict the changes in the path of cultivation. The time spent might be much longer or much shorter.
It all depended on one's luck.
Li Yue had no choice but to take things one step at a time.
"The laws of this world are too broken. The suppression it exerts on me is too great, greatly affecting my cultivation."
But there was no other way. He was an outsider. In this Shrouded Heaven World, he was targeted by the entire world. Even his tribulation was an illogical and terrifying tribulation.
It could be said that each tribulation was a test of life and death for Li Yue. It was a targeted obliteration.
"The impact is too great. The place where the six-dimensional fragment is located is indeed very difficult."
Moreover, Li Yue vaguely felt that the six-dimensional fragment had more effects and targeted more people. However, it was only a vague guess in his heart and he could not see any signs of it.
He only hoped that he was overthinking things.
…
It was early in the morning in the mountains. The scenery was beautiful and moving. Standing in Li Yue's position, he could see everything at a glance.
As far as the eye could see, there was also a large mountain range in the distance. Between the mountain peaks was a long valley with a flowing river.
On both sides of the river, there were green mountains and green trees.
Looking up, the strange peaks covered the sky, clear streams gurgled under his feet, and strange rocks rippled.
The beauty of the mountains in the early morning was faintly discernible.
If it was there, it was floating with the veil-like shadows of the clouds. It had clearly turned into steam; if it was not there, it revealed its face between the opening and closing of the clouds, making one feel very familiar.
Li Yue stared at it for a long time, then smiled and gently jumped down from the treetops. "No matter what strange things there are in this universe, no matter how rare the six-dimensional fragment is, it has already come. Let's just continue."
Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir.
He had now thought it through. The six-dimensional fragment was, after all, a six-dimensional fragment. If it was really so easy to get, then the Pure Yang Ancestor would not have been in such a difficult situation and ended up in such a sorry state.
"It will be difficult to get it, but so what? Even if I fail, it will just be a clone. My main body will still make a move when the time comes. "
In any case, the six-dimensional fragment was here. It would be obtained sooner or later.
Even if he could not do it, there was still his main body.
Thinking about it, Li Yue's heart suddenly relaxed a lot. The feeling of oppression also faded a lot.
"Let's go!"
With a move of his body, he directly turned into a mass of divine light and disappeared between the mountains, flying directly into the distance.
… …
Everything in the world is predestined!
Compared with the main body Li Yue, who was detached from the universe and looked down on all living things, the current clone Li Yue was like a hot-blooded youth. No, a contradictory combination.
Hot-Blooded at times, cold at times, indifferent to the world at times, bitter and deep hatred at times...
It gave off a contradictory and complicated feeling, as if his emotions were unstable. However, the clone did not know or feel this feeling. He only vaguely guessed that something was wrong.
But was this important?
No one knew.
… …
Central Continent, Border Pass City, was located at the eastern border of Central Continent. If one walked a few dozen li to the east, they would reach Eastern Wasteland. That was why this city was a pass, already standing here for a long time, ancient and majestic.
The ancient city had a long history. Because of its geographical location, there were also many people coming and going.
Even in the vicinity of the ancient city, there were many towns, villages, sects, and so on. There were countless small forces, with good and bad mixed together.
Li Yue came here and walked into the city.
To him, this place was just a place to replenish his supplies. Although he didn't lack anything, he had still heard a thing or two about this ancient city. Since he was passing by, he naturally came to take a look.
And his final destination was the Eastern Wilderness. Eastern Wilderness, Small Desolate Mountain.
That was his former homeland. Ever since the entire Small Desolate Mountain was wiped out by the people of the Yuhua God Dynasty, he never returned. And this time, he naturally returned to Small Desolate Mountain to resolve the karma in his heart.
"This mortal world is like a furnace. Entering the mortal world to cultivate is like tempering oneself in the furnace. In the end, those who can transcend this mortal world and jump out of this furnace are the true powerhouses of cultivation."
Since ancient times, only the ancient emperors could truly do such a thing. They could suppress the universe and be invincible in the world.
After entering this mortal world, it was inevitable that one would be entangled with karma and many incidents. Only by severing these karma bit by bit, ending these incidents, and constantly wiping oneself was true cultivation.
This was Li Yue's understanding. Maybe it was different from the people of this universe, but wasn't it also a kind of cultivation by analogy?
"In the Shrouding Heaven World, my sister is my greatest obsession and also my greatest karma. Apart from that, there is only the hatred of my homeland and the destruction of my village."
Now, his sister Nannan's corpse was already gone. This obsession completely dissipated the moment he saw the bronze ring. What was left was only the hatred of the Heaven Lacking Holy Land.
Yuhua God Dynasty, Heaven Lacking Holy Land.
In his heart, they had long been labeled as death.
…
Jie Guan City was very big. Between the streets, there was a rapid flow of people and endless traffic.
There were many shops on both sides of the street. From time to time, one could see some stalls placed in the corner, selling all kinds of novel things. The sounds of hawking also entered one's ears.
Li Yue walked on the street, looking at all of this and shopping.
It wasn't until noon that he found a restaurant, ordered some dishes, and ate and drank.
In the afternoon, he continued to stroll around the ancient city. Then, he went to a few places to buy some supplies before finding an inn to rest.
In the inn, there weren't many guests. Li Yue stayed in a room on the far right of the second floor.
The room was quite big and the decorations were exquisite and elegant. At this moment, the sky outside was slowly darkening. There were candles on the table, and the candlelight lit the room.
Li Yue sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and began a night of cultivation.
Exhale, inhale.
Every time he breathed, the wings of his nose moved slightly. A faint dense aura lingered around his body. That was the abundant essence energy of heaven and earth. It was attracted by him, swallowed, spat, and refined.
Vaguely, one could see a divine light flickering on his face, revealing the rhythm of the Dao. Blurry patterns spread around his body, chaotic and ethereal.
This was a cultivation phenomenon. It was very shocking, but it wasn't much.
To Li Yue, although this kind of cultivation was stable, the speed was too slow. Compared to the feeling of flying when he swallowed the Divine Fetus of Heaven and Earth, his current cultivation was like a tortoise crawling. It was pitifully slow.
Without enough resources, without the essence of heaven and earth, without the divine source, it was just a fantasy to want to break through quickly. However, Li Yue didn't care. To him, it didn't matter if he had the resources or not. It was better if he had the resources. If he didn't have them, he could just treat it as training his foundation.
The mana in his body flowed along his body. Every time it flowed, chaotic runes and Dao patterns flashed in his muscles and bones, slowly refining his entire body.
Below his energy center, the originally golden Sea of Bitterness had turned into a chaotic color. The chaotic aura intertwined with the Great Dao. In this chaotic aura, one could vaguely see the shadow of a demon god. It appeared in the depths of the Sea of Bitterness, suppressing the world of the Sea of Bitterness and the Wheel of Life.
Li Yue cultivated, swallowing the essence energy of heaven and earth while comprehending the mysteries of the Great Dao.
After an unknown period of time, the sky outside was completely dark. In the middle of the night, the originally bustling ancient city had fallen into silence. It was exceptionally peaceful.
During the day, many cultivators had fallen asleep or entered a meditative state, cultivating peacefully.
At this moment, in Li Yue's room, a distorted shadow appeared silently.
The shadow was blurry and had no aura. It was like air. He appeared in the room and stared at Li Yue, who was cultivating cross-legged. His eyes were empty and unfocused.
After taking a glance, the shadow moved and floated directly in front of Li Yue. He stabbed viciously between his eyebrows.
This stab was silent, but it contained terrifying power. It was as if the world, mountains, and rivers had been pierced through by this finger. It was extremely terrifying.
"Puff!"
The shadow's finger pierced through Li Yue's head. However, the finger went straight through as if it had pierced through an afterimage.
The shadow's reaction was extremely fast. The moment it missed, it quickly retreated and wanted to escape.
If the attack didn't hit, it would escape far away.
"Want to leave?"
Li Yue appeared at the door and stared coldly at the shadow. Cold light flashed in his eyes.
