Without needing Lu Ye's instructions, Yiyi immediately entered a state of meditation. The light on her body flickered, and as the light changed, the surrounding spirit mist continuously poured into her body.
Hu Po was even more direct. He revealed his true form, opened his bloody mouth, and sucked in.
The spirit mist visible to the naked eye turned into a stream of air and was sucked into his stomach.
Although it was the first time they were drawn here by Heaven's Secret, they all knew that time was limited. Even if Lu Ye was ranked first, he wouldn't stay here for more than an hour. Moreover, this was an opportunity that only came once a month, so they naturally had to cherish it.
Lu Ye began to construct spirit gathering runes in his spiritual cavities.
He had experienced something similar twice before. The first time was in the Hundred Peak Mountain's Dragon Spring, and the second time was in the Immortal Essence City's Soul Cleansing Pool.
In such an environment, his method could be used to great effect.
With Lu Ye's speed and concentration in constructing spiritual tattoos, it only took him a moment to complete all 320 small spirit-gathering funnels.
He didn't need to worry about what would happen next. These small funnels would naturally draw the surrounding spirit mist into Lu Ye's body and transform it through his own spirit energy.
A warm feeling flowed through his body. The effects of the spirit mist here were indeed extraordinary. Lu Ye could feel his body and mind gradually growing stronger.
However, if he really wanted to compare, the spirit mist here couldn't compare to directly devouring the blood veins in the scale armor!
In terms of strengthening the mind and soul, it couldn't compare to the Immortal Essence City's Soul Cleansing Pool.
As for increasing the purity of his spirit energy … Lu Ye couldn't feel it, because his spirit energy had always been pure and flawless.
Overall, the spirit mist of this Heaven's Secret Pool was like a weakened version of the combination of the Dragon Spring and the Soul Cleansing Pool.
However, this didn't mean that it was useless to Lu Ye. On the contrary, it was very useful. Because devouring the blood veins in the scale armor was a very violent process, Lu Ye didn't dare to directly devour them in the beginning. Every time Hu Po devoured them, he would be like a corpse for a while …
Only when the man and tiger grew stronger could they bear it.
Moreover, the blood veins in the scale armor had been completely depleted. In the past, Lu Ye had thought that the scale armor contained an abundance of blood veins, but as he and Hu Po continued to use it, and later used it on the giant armor, the scale armor had completely lost its function. The scale armor was now just a simple decoration.
The Spirit Mist of the Heaven Fate Pond was a very gentle enhancement to one's physique and mind. It wouldn't make one feel uncomfortable. Immersing oneself in it, one's entire body would relax, and one might even feel like sleeping.
After constructing small spirit gathering funnels in his spiritual cavities, Lu Ye took out several formation flags and scattered them in all directions, setting up a spirit gathering formation in the middle of the Heavenly Fate Pond to increase the speed of gathering spiritual fog.
The effect was obvious. The mist in the pool became thicker.
He still hadn't stopped. With his experience in the Immortal Essence City's Soul Cleansing Pool, he really wanted to know if he could do something similar and condense the spiritual fog here into liquid and bring it out.
It should be possible to observe the density of the spiritual mist in the pool.
Lu Ye hurriedly activated his spirit energy and constructed a huge Spirit Gathering Rune. He then controlled it to turn it into a large funnel.
Everything went smoothly.
The dense spiritual fog was drawn over and gathered in the funnel. It then clung to the walls of the funnel, condensed into liquid, and flowed out from the bottom of the funnel.
Lu Ye took out a jade bottle and placed it at the funnel, ready to collect the dripping spiritual liquid.
However, at this moment, an invisible force swept over and destroyed the large funnel in an instant.
Lu Ye frowned.
Unwilling to give up, he activated his spirit energy to construct another large funnel …
This time, as soon as the large funnel was formed, the invisible force appeared again and destroyed the funnel.
Not only that, but Lu Ye also had a feeling that he was being watched. It was as if a pair of eyes were staring at him in the dark. If he did anything wrong, there would definitely be some unpleasant consequences.
Was this the Heavenly Fate?
Lu Ye's heart trembled.
Ever since he embarked on the path of cultivation, he often heard the term Heavenly Fate. The daily cultivation life of a cultivator was inseparable from the Heavenly Fate. He had always thought that the so-called Heavenly Fate was just some strange rules or laws that were above all living things.
However, now it seemed that he was wrong. This Heavenly Fate … was alive?
His body became somewhat stiff, and the feeling of impending doom was very bad. Lu Ye activated his spirit energy and tried to construct a large spiritual funnel. However, as soon as it took shape, he felt an indescribable panic in his heart. Inside his chest, his heart thumped, as if it was going to jump out of his throat.
After dispersing his spirit energy, the panic disappeared.
Lu Ye immediately confirmed that the Heavenly Fate did not allow him to bring the spiritual fog out. That was why it had warned him!
Was it necessary?
However, after thinking about it, the spiritual fog was a reward given by the Heavenly Fate to the experts on the Spirit Stream List. Only those who had been on the list for a month were qualified to be drawn here. If he brought the spiritual fog out, what kind of reward would it be?
It was like going to a banquet. Being able to eat as much as you wanted was a skill, but taking it away was not right.
Realizing this, Lu Ye gave up on his previous idea. Although it was a pity, since the Heavenly Fate did not allow it, there was nothing he could do. He could not fight the Heavenly Fate with his wits and courage. In the end, he would be the one to suffer.
What he was most concerned about was whether or not the Heavenly Fate had its own consciousness. Or, was it really a living thing?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Lu Ye found a place to sit down and wait.
Other people cultivated by concealing their spirit and qi, concentrating their mind without any distracting thoughts. After all, if they were not focused enough, they would not be able to absorb the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.
However, Lu Ye cultivated by himself. As long as the small spiritual funnel was still there, he did not need to worry.
As he silently comprehended, his body and mind continued to grow stronger.
Lu Ye had never felt time pass so quickly. His vision blurred, and the environment he was in changed from the Heavenly Fate Pond to the small wooden house. Only then did Lu Ye realize that an hour had already passed.
Checking his body, Lu Ye found that even though his body and mind were already strong enough, staying in the Heavenly Fate Pond for an hour had greatly increased his strength.
Conservatively speaking, his body and mind had increased by at least 10%.
This kind of increase did not seem like much, only 10%, but it was actually very terrifying. Because Lu Ye's foundation was already very strong, an increase of 10% on top of his already strong foundation would naturally bring about a great increase in strength.
Other things aside, if he were to fight with Shi Guang now, he was confident that he could defeat him without getting injured.
Of course, this was related to the methods he used. Others who entered focused on absorbing spiritual qi, so no matter how talented they were, their efficiency would not be very high.
But he was different. Not only did he have more than 300 small funnel spirit patterns to strengthen his spiritual cavities, he also set up a spiritual qi gathering formation. Not only did he obtain enough benefits from inside, even Yiyi and Hu Po benefited from it.
"Lu Ye, Lu Ye, you seem to have turned white?" Yiyi seemed to have discovered a new continent and looked at Lu Ye with interest.
"Nonsense!"
Lu Ye's face darkened, and he raised his hand to pinch Yiyi's face.
"Yes, it feels better than before."
Lu Ye suspected that if she continued to cultivate like this, Yiyi would become no different from a living person. Although she looked no different from other people, she was still just a spirit body.
Being pinched by Lu Ye, Yiyi could not break free and could only cry for help. "Big sister Hua Ci, save me!"
Hearing the commotion, Hua Ci walked out of the room and slapped Lu Ye's hand away. She then shielded Yiyi behind her. "Why are you always bullying children?"
Yiyi poked her head out from behind Hua Ci and stuck out her tongue at Lu Ye, looking pleased that someone was protecting her.
She then said to Hua Ci, "Big sister Hua Ci, I said that Lu Ye had turned white, but he didn't believe me. Do you think so?"
Hua Ci looked at Lu Ye seriously, and under his nervous gaze, she said, "His qi and blood have become much more vigorous, and his face is glowing. It looks like he's pregnant …"
She then looked at Hu Po. "Hu Po too. Is the heavenly blessing's effect so obvious?"
"If it wasn't obvious, why would those Heavenly Nine cultivators still remain in the Spirit Stream Battlefield? That's why you should go try for the Spirit Stream Rankings."
"I can defeat you and take first place?"
Lu Ye suddenly realized. "You're quite ambitious! But if you want to defeat me, I'm afraid you'll never have the chance. "
With the Innate Skill Tree, he was immune to all poisons. Hua Ci's strongest move was useless against him, so she naturally couldn't defeat him.
Only now did Lu Ye understand why Hua Ci didn't try for the Spirit Stream Rankings. It was because he was currently at the top of the Spirit Stream Rankings. This woman's heart was as big as her chest, and she was aiming for first place.
If that was the case, then she would definitely try for the Spirit Stream Rankings after he advanced to the Cloud River Realm.
Thinking about that scene …
Lu Ye felt sad for the Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators.
Now that he had occupied the top spot of the Spirit Stream Ranking with his Eighth Heaven cultivation base, he had already humiliated the Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators. If Hua Ci were to occupy the top spot of the Spirit Stream Ranking as a medical cultivator, not only would the Myriad Devil Ridge cultivators be humiliated, but the Grand Heaven Alliance would also be humiliated …
Since when did a medical cultivator appear in the top fifty of the Spirit Stream Rankings?
Lu Ye didn't doubt Hua Ci's ability to take first place on the Spirit Stream Rankings. The current Hua Ci had the qualifications to challenge the top thirty.
His body and mind had both been strengthened, so he needed some time to get used to it. After Hua Ci and Yiyi left, Lu Ye simply took out the Mountain Plate Saber and practiced his Flash Saber Technique.
After just one swing, Lu Ye felt a difference. Not only had the power of the saber increased, but more importantly, his chest didn't hurt anymore.
His chest had been pierced by Shi Guang's spear. Although he had recovered quickly under Hua Ci's treatment, her current cultivation was still low. Even if she went all out, there would still be some hidden dangers left in Lu Ye's wound.
Previously, every time he practiced the Flash Saber Technique, his chest would hurt a little.
