There were also some messages that invited him to cultivate in their sects.
They weren't trying to curry favor with Lu Ye. Lu Ye was now in a lot of trouble, especially now that he was first on the Spirit Stream List. The Myriad Demon Ridge was even more determined to kill him. No matter which sect he went to cultivate in, he wouldn't bring much benefit to them. The only possibility was that he would be targeted by the Myriad Demon Ridge.
Lu Ye naturally refused all of these invitations.
The Ten Thousand Poison Forest was the best place for him to hide. As long as he didn't show himself, the people from the Myriad Devil Ridge wouldn't be able to find him. He could take the initiative to attack at any time and catch the Myriad Devil Ridge off guard.
Although the World Energy here wasn't too rich, as long as Lu Ye had enough Spirit Pills, his cultivation speed wouldn't be too slow.
After ending the message, Lu Ye focused on eating his porridge.
Hua Ci came every day to treat his injuries. In just three days, Lu Ye's injuries were mostly healed.
In his spare time, he cultivated and read. His days suddenly became leisurely, without all the previous disturbances. Lu Ye was surprised to find that he was quite comfortable with this kind of life and even liked it.
It wasn't until now that he realized that deep down, he wasn't someone who liked to cause trouble. Compared to that kind of thrilling life, he preferred peace and quiet.
It was just that … people in Jianghu had no choice!
In the small courtyard outside the wooden house, Lu Ye held the Mountain Pan Saber. The Spirit Qi around him surged and crazily poured into the saber.
Some time ago, he was invincible in the Spirit Stream List, but in the battle with Shi Guang, he found that he was facing a problem.
He lacked a way to make the final decision!
It could also be said that it was a trump card.
The Fire Phoenix Spirit Tattoo was one of them, but it was difficult for him to activate it with his current strength. Last time, he had been able to activate it because he had made a lot of preparations in advance. Moreover, the aftereffects of activating the Fire Phoenix Spirit Tattoo were too great. At that time, he had been lying in bed for many days under Hua Ci's care.
What he needed now was a trump card that he could withstand and use.
Shi Guang's last spear strike had given him a lot of inspiration. He also remembered the scene when he went to the Pill Heart Sect and fought with a Heavenly Nine Sword Cultivator. From beginning to end, his opponent had only used one sword strike, but that sword strike contained all of his strength. It was similar to Shi Guang's last spear strike, which was a blow that contained a large amount of Spirit Qi.
This method was not difficult to use. At the last moment of his battle with Shi Guang, Lu Ye had actually grasped the essence of this technique, which was why he had been able to block his opponent's blazing spear.
What he needed to do now was to familiarize himself with this technique and perfect it so that he could use it at any time when facing an enemy.
Flames blazed as the saber burned. The Mount Pan Saber hummed as Lu Ye slashed down. The space in front of him seemed to be torn apart, and a crack appeared on the ground!
. He did not activate the Sharpness Spirit Tattoo, but the power of this strike was much greater than before.
Lu Ye frowned. He was not very satisfied with this strike because it consumed a lot of Spirit Qi and physical strength. Moreover, his right arm felt a little sore after this strike. He could at most make three strikes in a short period of time before his right arm could not be raised.
If this happened in a battle with a strong opponent, he would not be far from defeat.
Although he was not satisfied, he had just started cultivating and there were many areas that could be improved.
This was a technique and a saber technique.
Since it was a saber technique, it should have its own name.
How to name it was a problem …
Lu Ye muttered to himself. He recalled the flash of sharpness when the saber fell and an idea came to him.
Let's call it "Flash".
There was no shortcut to practicing saber techniques other than perseverance and diligence.
In the small courtyard, Lu Ye would occasionally pick up the Mountain Saber to practice. Then, he would take some Spirit Pills to recover. When the soreness in his right arm disappeared, he would continue practicing.
Although doing so would slow down his cultivation progress, for Lu Ye, the level of his cultivation base was never the most important thing. The fact that he had been able to reach the top of the Spirit Stream List with his Heaven Eight cultivation base had undoubtedly proved that point. If he could cultivate the Flash to the point where he could use it as he wished, then slowing down his cultivation speed would be worth it.
Days passed, and Lu Ye gradually became more and more familiar with the Flash. However, he was still unable to solve the problem of the consumption of his saber technique. Such an imperfect saber technique would be very difficult to use against strong opponents.
Lu Ye never thought that he would have no opponents after reaching first place on the Spirit Stream List. He would also advance to the Cloud River Battlefield. The situation in the Cloud River Battlefield was much more complicated than the Spirit Stream Battlefield. Even if he could do as he pleased in the Spirit Stream Battlefield, he would still have to be careful in the Cloud River Battlefield.
Over the past few days, several experts from the Grand Heaven Alliance had been steadily maintaining their rankings on the Spirit Stream List. Aside from Shi Guang, who had taken second place on the Spirit Stream List, only the female archer had moved to fourth place. The rankings of the others had not changed much. As for Lu Ye, no one had come to challenge him.
Whether it was Shi Guang or the female archer, they all knew that they were no match for Lu Ye. Naturally, they would not come looking for trouble.
Half a month later, Lu Ye had opened 320 apertures. It had been 40 days since he had reached Heaven Eight. Previously, he had been busy trying to reach the Spirit Stream List, so he had not had much time to cultivate. Recently, he had been practicing saber techniques, which had slowed down his cultivation speed. So, despite so many days, he had only opened 20 apertures.
He was still 40 apertures away from reaching Heaven Nine.
Lu Ye, who was practicing saber techniques in the small courtyard, suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky. Heaven's will had descended!
It had been 30 days since he had re-entered the Spirit Stream List. It was time for the heavenly will to reward him.
Over the past few days, he had not left the wooden house. It could be said that he had been waiting for this day to come. Regarding the Spirit Stream List experts being rewarded by the heavenly will, he had asked many people to inquire about the situation. So, even if it was his first time experiencing it, he knew what would happen next.
Now, he was only worried about one thing, and that was whether or not Hu Po and Yi Yi would be rewarded with him!
However, when he thought about it carefully, Hu Po was his pet beast, which was recognized by the heavenly will. Yi Yi was also Hu Po's nightmare spirit. When he had challenged the Spirit Stream List, the two of them had participated in every battle. Now that it was time for the rewards, they should not be left behind.
Just as he was thinking about it, Yi Yi and Hu Po ran out of the wooden house.
"Lu Ye, Lu Ye, I feel like I've sensed something. Hu Po, too." Yi Yi felt something for the first time, so she could not help but feel a little confused.
"Just don't resist," Lu Ye said.
Hua Ci heard the commotion and came out. Their eyes met, and she quickly understood. "It's time?"
Lu Ye nodded.
After saying that, Lu Ye, Hu Po, and Yi Yi's figures quickly faded away and disappeared.
In a misty area, the three figures that had disappeared suddenly reappeared.
This was the place where the heavenly will rewards were given out, the Heavenly Will Pool!
The mist in the pool was not spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, but a type of energy that was extremely useful to cultivators.
Absorbing and refining the mist could not only temper a cultivator's body, but also increase the strength of a cultivator's soul. It could also purify the accumulated pill toxins in the body and increase the purity of one's spiritual power. There were many other benefits.
Every expert on the Spirit Stream List who could stay on the list for a month would be drawn here by the heavenly will, where they would receive the baptism of the heavenly will rewards and become even more powerful.
That was why, when Lu Ye had challenged Shi Guang, he had said that he had already received the baptism of the heavenly will rewards several times. After all, Shi Guang had already been on the Spirit Stream List for several months.
Depending on the ranking of the Spirit Stream List, the amount of time a cultivator could stay in the pool was also different. The higher the ranking, the longer the amount of time a cultivator could stay in the pool.
Lu Ye had asked Yu Lianzhou about it, and found that he could only stay in the Heavenly Will Pool for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Once the time limit was up, he would be teleported back to his original location.
As for the first place on the list, Yu Lianzhou wasn't too sure.
Lu Ye had asked his second Senior Sister to ask Feng Yuechan about it. According to her, the few times she had come to the Heavenly Will Pool, she had never stayed for more than an hour.
That was also the reason why the experts on the Spirit Stream Battlefield were so obsessed with the Spirit Stream List. Being on the list not only gave you fame, but also real benefits.
The spiritual mist here could temper the body, strengthen the soul, and increase the purity of spiritual power. Which one of those aspects did not affect a cultivator's future and strength?
It could be said that being baptized in the Heavenly Will Pool would make one's future prospects even greater.
The higher one's ranking was on the Spirit Stream List, the longer one could stay in the Heavenly Will Pool. That was a phenomenon: the strong would become even stronger!
Perhaps that was the tacit encouragement of the heavenly will, which concentrated more of the rewards on the people with the most outstanding talent!
The Heavenly Nine cultivators had clearly cultivated to the limit of the Spirit Stream Stage, so why didn't they choose to break through to the Cloud River Stage?
Lu Ye had assumed that the Heavenly Nine cultivators wanted to settle down in the Spirit Stream Stage for a while to strengthen their foundations. Now, however, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with that idea. It was just that it was not comprehensive enough.
The Heavenly Nine cultivators all longed to enter the Spirit Stream List and gain a place there. How could relying on their own strength compare to the baptism bestowed by the heavenly will? That was why the Heavenly Nine cultivators were not in a hurry to break through to the Cloud River Stage. Instead, they were all staring at the Spirit Stream List.
However, there was a limit to the baptism. Everyone's situation was different. When the baptism bestowed by the heavenly will did not have much of an effect on the Spirit Stream List, they would naturally choose to break through to the Cloud River Stage to avoid wasting their time.
Generally speaking, cultivators who qualified to enter the Heavenly Will Pool would reach their limit after three or four times. Even if they had the opportunity to enter again, refining the spiritual mist would not benefit them much.
In the past, there had been rumors that Feng Yuechan, Li Baxian, and Yan Xing, the three malignant tumors, had occupied the Spirit Stream List for too long, and had been disliked by the heavenly will. Therefore, after the first few times, the monthly baptisms were not given to them.
In truth, it was not that the heavenly will disliked them, but rather that the spiritual mist had no effect on them. That was why the heavenly will not lead them here.
Within the Heavenly Will Pool, Lu Ye turned to look around and found Hu Po and Yiyi by his side.
