In the lonely cave, Yi Yun circulated the Dragon Emperor Technique. The surrounding rich Yuan Qi immediately surged towards Yi Yun like a whale sucking in water.
Soon, a Yuan Qi whirlpool formed beside Yi Yun.
Yi Yun inhaled and exhaled the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi of the ancient world.
Rumble! The blood in Yi Yun's body surged like a raging wave, constantly washing through Yi Yun's body.
A hundred thousand feet tall building rises from the ground, and a treasured sword's edge is sharpened by grinding. As Yi Yun tempered himself and strengthened his foundation, his cultivation level also became more and more pure.
If he did not have the River of Forgetfulness's water, Yi Yun could also undergo such a tempering of his foundation. However, it would take too much time. It might take decades or even centuries.
Yi Yun had been practicing martial arts for so long, and he had always been trying to surpass his cultivation level. He had never been like today, where he could really focus on polishing his foundation.
The River of Forgetfulness's water had completely fused with Yi Yun's body. He felt that the time he experienced was moving faster and faster than the time around him. It was nearly thirty times faster.
With a time difference of thirty times, a day in the outside world was equivalent to a month for Yi Yun.
According to this speed, if Yi Yun were to enter seclusion for two years, it would be equivalent to a cycle of sixty years.
To Yi Yun, who had only lived for a century or so, using a sixty-year cycle to polish his foundation was an extravagant thing. It was not only limited to Yi Yun. The other young geniuses were unwilling to do so either. It would be a waste of the vital potential of their youth. But after consuming the River of Forgetfulness's water, they did not have such concerns.
"I've been cultivating for more than a hundred years, and I've always been catching up to time. I've never slowed down my cultivation. My cultivation level has already far surpassed that of my peers. Although I've condensed many nine-leaf fruits, and my foundation has never shown any signs of instability, I've still cultivated too quickly. Today, I will properly settle my cultivation and use all the time I have gained after drinking the River of Forgetfulness water to accumulate my cultivation. "
Yi Yun constantly inhaled and exhaled. Every time he breathed, he exhaled the turbid air in his body and inhaled pure Yuan Qi.
After an unknown period of time, the dull sound of thunder gradually came from the valley.
At first, the sound of thunder was relatively soft. However, as the days passed, the sound of thunder became louder and louder, echoing throughout the valley.
This was the sound produced when Yi Yun inhaled and exhaled Yuan Qi.
At this moment, Yi Yun's foundation had been thoroughly tempered. It was extremely solid.
His skin was like fine jade and his bones were sparkling and translucent.
The reason why the bodies of the Almighties were able to last hundreds of millions of years after their deaths was because they had polished their bodies to the point that they were like magical treasures.
As for Yi Yun's repeated tempering, his body was no longer mortal. Ordinary swords and sabers could not cut through his skin, and his bones were extremely hard.
At this moment, Yi Yun's aura suddenly rose rapidly, as if all the conditions were right.
The aura grew stronger and suddenly, a crisp chime sounded from the Nine-treasured Dao Palace in Yi Yun's dantian.
It was the sound of the Great Dao, the sound produced by all the laws Yi Yun had learned.
Amidst the ringing of the bell, the Taoist Palace slowly rose higher and higher.
Yi Yun cultivated in the Dragon Emperor Technique, so he needed large amounts of resources to make a breakthrough. If not for the River of Forgetfulness's water, it would have taken him quite some time to break through to the ninth-storey Dao Palace.
But now, the Ninefold Dao Palace was beginning to take shape.
Every brick and tile was formed from the nomological insights Yi Yun had gained.
Only with a solid foundation could real high-rise buildings be built.
Yi Yun's foundation was extremely robust, so much so that his Dao Palace was much grander than the typical warrior's.
Gradually, a new Dao Palace level appeared. The nine-storey Nine-treasured Dao Palace was like the horns of an antelope. It was natural and extremely harmonious. It was filled with a magnificent beauty, as though such a Dao Palace should have existed in the world.
"I've reached the ninth-storey Dao Palace."
At that moment, Yi Yun's Dao Palace realm was perfected. Yi Yun had cultivated the Dao Palace realm to its limits. Be it his foundation or the final results, they were flawless.
However, Yi Yun's aura did not stop rising. Instead, it continued rising.
Boom! Boom!
His breathing was like rolling thunder, causing the entire valley to rumble.
Yi Yun opened his mouth and inhaled, sucking all the remaining River of Forgetfulness's water into his stomach.
As Yi Yun inhaled, a vacuum of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi formed around him.
He was like a black hole as he constantly sucked in massive amounts of Heaven Earth Yuan Qi.
The Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was so rich that it formed a mist. It could even condense into pure Yuan Qi liquid. At that moment, Yi Yun was constantly sucking in mouthfuls of it.
His dantian constantly emitted loud rumbling sounds.
After an unknown period of time.
Boom!
The nine-storey Nine-treasured Dao Palace in Yi Yun's dantian began to crack.
The cracks constantly expanded, covering the entire Dao Palace.
The appearance of cracks in the Dao Palace meant that the Dao Palace was on the brink of collapse. This was not a problem with Yi Yun's cultivation, but a necessary step for him to break through to the Supremacy realm.
As long as the Dao Palace completely shattered, he would condense a dharmic body and officially step into the Supremacy realm.
However, all of this was a long process. It was impossible to accomplish in one go.
Yi Yun was in no hurry. He had plenty of time. A month or two would be three to five years after the River of Forgetfulness's water.
He was already planning on breaking through to the Supremacy realm in the Ancient Ruins world!
Just as Yi Yun was accumulating his strength in peace, he suddenly felt the lifeblood in his body stir slightly.
The stir seemed to be stirred by something. It stirred Yi Yun's heart.
He opened his eyes and his gaze penetrated dozens of kilometers away. He saw a scene that left him alarmed.
He saw more than ten men and women running. Many of them were injured.
There were other people in this mystic zone?
Yi Yun was taken aback for a moment before he came to a realization. Aged Blackrock had once told him that this world was the most primordial Sinkhole. Aged Blackrock called it the Ancient Ruins world.
The Ancient Ruins world was not unique to the Nine Li Magus Empire. There were other factions and races that had territories in the Ancient Ruins world.
Although it was rare to encounter people from other factions here, it was not surprising.
…
At that moment, dozens of kilometers away, a group of white-dressed men and women were chasing a figure of light.
They coordinated with each other with great tacit understanding. Every time they took a step, a Law mark would form on the spot they stepped on. When these marks combined, it was like an inescapable net that enveloped the light figure they were chasing.
At this moment, Yi Yun could see clearly that the shadow was a rainbow snake. Furthermore, there was a pair of sharp horns on the snake's head.
"Junior Brother Mo, coordinate with me and use the Seven Extinction Steps!"
"Junior Sister Song, flank it from the side!"
A bald man commanded the team. His figure was as fast as lightning, and he was getting closer and closer to the seven-colored figure.
"There's no more path ahead!"
When the dozen or so people reached a certain point in their pursuit, massive array patterns suddenly appeared in front of them. They had arrived in front of a massive array formation.
The array formation's energy was immense. Upon seeing this scene, the bald man was delighted instead of alarmed. He knew that they had arrived outside a faction's defensive array formation.
It was not easy to pass through such a defensive array formation.
"Good! It has nowhere to run! " The bald man said in delight. "Split into two. Flank it from the left and right to prevent it from escaping from the flanks. Junior Brother Mo, follow me to capture it from the front."
As the bald man spoke, he took out a black net from his interspatial ring. He wanted to use the net to capture the rainbow snake.
And at that moment, the rainbow snake slammed into the array formation.
"Peng!"
With a boom, a golden light barrier appeared out of thin air. No matter how hard the seven-colored snake slammed into it, the golden light barrier didn't even tremble. The seven-colored snake was confused, but in its panic, it didn't care where it was going. With a flick of its tail, it slammed into the golden light barrier again.
"Peng!"
The rainbow snake did not hold back as it slammed into the barrier ferociously. However, despite its scales shattering, it was still unable to break through the array formation.
Instantly, a look of despair flashed in the rainbow snake's amber eyes.
"Haha! The heavens are helping me. You won't be able to escape. "
The bald man spread out the net. At the same time, his fellow disciples cooperated and produced hand seals, sealing off the space that spanned several kilometers. At that moment, the rainbow snake was like a turtle in a jar. It had no way of escaping.
"Peng! Peng! Peng! "
The rainbow snake slammed into the golden barrier with all its might. However, its strength was just too puny compared to the golden barrier. It was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Everything it did was futile. At that moment, the black net was beginning to tighten.
Upon seeing this scene, Yi Yun felt sorry for the rainbow snake. For some unknown reason, the rainbow snake seemed to have a faint connection with his lifeblood. This was also the reason why Yi Yun felt his lifeblood stir while he was in seclusion.
Yi Yun felt that he shared the same origins as the Rainbow Snake. It made him feel a sense of sympathy for the Rainbow Snake's plight.
He wanted to save this little rainbow snake!
Just as this thought came to Yi Yun's mind, the golden light screen outside the array began to tremble slightly. The light screen rippled outwards like a wave as a hole the size of a bowl appeared on the golden light screen.
The rainbow snake, which was already in despair, was taken aback when it suddenly discovered the hole of unknown origin.
At that moment, the black net was already enveloping it. The rainbow snake quickly reacted and flicked its tail, flying straight into the hole.
"Boom!"
The black net slammed into the golden barrier as the rainbow snake transformed into a stream of light and flew into the Nine Li Magus Empire's array formation.
The next moment, the hole began to rapidly close and vanished in a blink of an eye.
Everything was restored to its original state as though the hole had never existed. However, the rainbow snake had already arrived inside the barrier. It looked at the men and women through the barrier.
"What!?" The bald man was taken aback. Just as they were about to succeed, the barrier had opened, allowing the rainbow snake to enter. All their efforts were for naught.
What was going on!?
The bald man's expression was sullen. The feeling of failing despite being just one step away from success infuriated him.
