Lu Ye didn't go to his personal training room. Instead, he walked to one of the training rooms and used his authority as a guardian to open the door.
A young girl who was cultivating inside was startled, "Fifth Senior Brother, did I do something wrong?" Then, as if remembering something, she squatted down and covered her head with both hands, "I won't harass Sixth Senior Sister anymore. I'm not trying to steal your woman, please don't hit me!"
"Hm?"
[Did I just hear something terrible?]
A moment later, Lu Ye left a Spirit Gathering Spirit Rune that covered the entire wall of this Cultivation Room before turning around and walking out, leaving behind the young girl whose eyes had lost focus.
With so many Cultivation Rooms, Lu Ye couldn't arrange Spirit Gathering Spirit Runes in all of them at once, so he could only arrange them when he had time.
His initial goal was to arrange a Spirit Gathering Spirit Rune in each Cultivation Room, then slowly add two, three, and so on.
After arranging several Cultivation Rooms, Lu Ye entered his exclusive Cultivation Room and used the little remaining Spirit Qi in his body to construct a small funnel in his Spirit Aperture before switching to his Gluttonous Meal Secret Art and tossing two Profound Spirit Pills into his mouth.
While cultivating, Yang Kai studied the books Madam Yun had brought him, and from time to time, he would construct Yin and Yang Qi on his fingers to strengthen his practice.
His consumed Spirit Qi was quickly restored, and after the World Energy density in the station increased, both his recovery and cultivation efficiency more than doubled.
Lu Ye felt that if he cultivated wholeheartedly, he could break through to the Seventh-Order in less than twenty days.
However, improving his cultivation too quickly wasn't necessarily a good thing. Li Baxian had also warned him before that he needed to pay attention to his foundation. While improving his cultivation, he also needed to improve himself in all aspects. Otherwise, if he only improved his realm but didn't have the corresponding strength, it would be impossible.
Lu Ye wasn't too worried about his foundation being insufficient, but now that he had to study the Spirit Rune Dao and construct Yin and Yang Qi, he needed to consume Spirit Qi and occasionally go to other Cultivation Rooms to arrange Spirit Gathering Spirit Runes, which delayed his cultivation speed.
Reading one book after another, Lu Ye frantically absorbed the knowledge in these books, making it easier to construct Yin and Yang Qi, but there was still a gap between him and Madam Yun's requirements.
A day later, a somewhat tired Lu Ye put down the book in his hand and stretched.
Although studying the Spirit Rune Dao was interesting, it became boring after a long time.
Lu Ye thought about it and took out the Breath Fruit Core from his Storage Bag. Just as he was about to circulate his Spirit Qi, he quickly took out the Mountain Coiling Saber.
He wanted to see if he could bring the Mountain Pan Saber into the Mirage Realm. Last time, he didn't bring the saber, and his 50 merit points were basically wasted.
...................................................
With his previous experience, Lu Ye walked up to the only door and pushed it open.
Just like last time, a line of wriggling words appeared on the door, saying that it would cost 50 merit points to enter the mirage realm.
Lu Ye was now so rich that he didn't even bat an eyelid as he pushed the door open. His imprint heated up slightly, and fifty merit points were deducted.
.....................................
Lu Ye looked back, but couldn't see any traces of a door. The small space they were in seemed to be just a transit point.
. A strange sound came from the fog in front of him, and he could vaguely hear something crawling.
Lu Ye immediately squatted down and pressed his hand on the Mountain Coiling Saber's hilt.
The fog in front of him surged as if something was about to break out of the fog.
Here it comes!
Lu Ye secretly circulated his Spirit Qi, and in the next moment, a strange-looking thing jumped out of the fog and pounced at him.
The thing that came at him looked like a praying mantis. It crawled with four legs and was extremely fast. Its front two blade-like legs flickered with a cold light.
This praying mantis was not inferior to Lu Ye in size. It was green with a hint of black. The wings on its back gave it the ability to glide in the air.
Lu Ye had never seen such a big praying mantis. The last time he came here, he was frightened by it. He didn't have a weapon, so he couldn't last long here.
As the praying mantis leapt over, its mandibles were constantly opening and closing. Its serrated teeth were sharp, and if one was bitten by this thing, it would definitely not end well.
The distance between them quickly closed, and the two mantis blades slashed towards Lu Ye's left and right, as if trying to cut off his head.
Such a blow was not inferior to the full strength of a Sixth-Order Weapon Cultivator. Lu Ye faintly felt that this was related to his own strength, after all, he was a Sixth-Order Weapon Cultivator.
When the mantis blades slashed out, Lu Ye had already lowered his body and slid out from under the praying mantis, the Mountain Coiling Saber in his hand slashing out.
Dark green insect blood splattered everywhere along with its innards. With a plop, the menacing praying mantis fell behind Lu Ye, its entire body nearly cleaved in half by a single slash.
This was the killing power of Lu Ye's Sharpness Saber. Under the same realm, anyone who was hit by this attack would die without a doubt.
However, before he could stabilize himself, there was movement from both sides of the fog, and two more praying mantises rushed out from the fog, almost simultaneously rushing towards Lu Ye.
Lu Ye wanted to test the power of his new Spirit Inscriptions, so his legs suddenly flashed with light as he activated Wind Walk, increasing his speed sharply. In an instant, he had arrived in front of one of the praying mantis, raised his saber, and slashed down. This strike missed the praying mantis' blade and shattered its head.
The second praying mantis had already arrived, so Lu Ye immediately turned around and slashed out with his saber, only to be blocked by the praying mantis' blade.
The Heavy Pressure Spirit Inscriptions were silently added to the Mountain Coiling Saber, and the praying mantis, which was already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, suddenly staggered under the pressure. Lu Ye took advantage of this opportunity and stabbed his saber, most of the blade piercing into the praying mantis' mouth. When he pulled his saber out, the praying mantis wriggled on the ground, hissing sounds coming from its mouth.
Lu Ye gasped for breath as another movement came from the fog. Soon, three praying mantises rushed out from three different directions …
The battle had not stopped since the beginning, and the number of praying mantises that Lu Ye had to deal with also increased from one praying mantis to one praying mantis each time.
Everything here was extremely real. When Lu Ye killed those praying mantises, he could smell the pungent smell of their blood. When the blood spilled on his body, it also felt very real. Even when he was injured, there would be dark red blood flowing out.
Lu Ye did not know what kind of place the Mirage Realm connected to by his Breath Fruit Core was, but everything here was no different from the outside world.
The only difference was that after he died in battle here, he would not really die, and the corpses of the praying mantises he killed would disappear in a very short period of time.
This seemed to be a place specially for cultivators to hone their combat skills.
He had let Shui Yuan try it out at that time, and she had also said that it was something.
To be able to hone one's combat skills in such an environment was simply a dream for Lu Ye. His cultivation level had increased too quickly, and his cultivation time was too short. This led to him not having much experience in fighting with other cultivators. Even if he had killed his way through before, it still could not make up for this shortcoming.
With the Mirage Realm, it was different. Although the opponents here were praying mantises and not cultivators, the feeling of walking on the edge of life and death was the same, and the pain of being injured was the same.
In such a place, Lu Ye could use all he had learned to his heart's content and find his own shortcomings in the fierce battle.
The number of praying mantises gradually increased to nine, and Lu Ye felt that he was about to reach his limit. In such a small area, even if he played different tricks with his own spirit patterns, he would inevitably be beaten up by the group. The sharp praying mantis blades left deep wounds on his body, and even his abdomen was cut open, and his internal organs flowed out.
In the end, after Lu Ye killed three of the nine praying mantises, his head was pierced by a praying mantis blade!
The feeling of death at that moment was extremely real.
In the exclusive practice room, Lu Ye suddenly opened his eyes and gasped for breath. Even though he had the previous experience and knew that he wouldn't really die if he died in the mirage, he still had a very strong feeling of palpitations.
At the same time, his mind was extremely painful, as if there was a needle in it.
This was also the reason why Hua Ci looked at him with such a bitter expression after he tried the core of the Breath Fruit for her.
The feeling of death was too terrible, and no one wanted to experience it.
He checked himself, and the injuries in the Mirage Realm did not appear, but his spiritual power was greatly consumed. It seemed that everything else in the Mirage Realm was fake, and only the consumption of spiritual power and the accumulated exhaustion were real.
At the same time, after death, his mind would hurt, which might be the reason for the mental exhaustion.
Therefore, every time he entered the Mirage Realm, it was impossible to enter a second time in a short time, and he had to rest for a day.
Breath Fruit Cores had all kinds of strange uses and were not fixed. Even though the Breath Fruit Core that Lu Ye obtained didn't connect to any rich spiritual veins and couldn't increase the efficiency of cultivation, it could improve one's combat skills through the feeling of death again and again, but no benefits could be exchanged for it.
Fourth Senior Brother really had a good eye. At that time, there were nine fruits on the Breath Fruit Tree, and he chose this one.
He continued to cultivate and restore his spiritual power, and took out food from the storage bag to replenish his physical strength.
As the days passed, Lu Ye, in addition to occasionally returning to the sect to enjoy the delicious food made by Senior Sister Shuiyuan, had been staying in the practice room, studying the books brought back from Madam Yun, constructing the Yin and Yang Dual Elements, and entering the mirage realm every day to chop the mantis, living a fulfilling life.
After gradually familiarizing himself with the fighting methods of those praying mantises, Lu Ye also made rapid progress. He could kill those big guys in the shortest time with the least consumption. At the same time, in this fierce battle, he could gradually use his new spiritual tattoos freely.
It was not until five days later that Lu Ye walked out of the practice room. As usual, he asked the junior brother on duty in the Tianji Hall. After confirming that the station was fine, he returned to the sect.
He found Hu Po and rode it straight to the Bright Heart Peak.
The more than a dozen books had been read, and the construction and switching of the Yin and Yang Dual Elements had also met the requirements of Madam Yun. It was time to move on to the next step.
