In the dilapidated Spiritual Land, tiger roars, laughter, and screams continuously rang out as snowballs flew here and there.
After Lu Ye stuffed a snowball into the back of Yiyi's neck, the situation got out of hand.
Snowball fights on snowy days were ingrained in the deepest recesses of Lu Ye's memory. Fortunately, he was not out of practice, especially now that he was a cultivator at the Cloud River Tier. His physical fitness was extraordinary. As he circulated his Spiritual Power, he raised his hand, and a snowball appeared in his hand.
Snowballs of various sizes flew through the air, creating a buzzing sound in all directions.
Hu Po and Yiyi's hearts were linked, and their cooperation was seamless. One was responsible for blocking Lu Ye's attacks, while the other was responsible for counterattacking, causing the battle to be in full swing.
This continued until Hu Po found an opportunity to push Lu Ye to the ground. Then, a huge snowball the size of a water tank fell from the sky, directly burying the man and the tiger.
Yiyi jumped high, excitedly cheering, "I won!"
The snow surged, and a majestic tiger head poked out, shaking off the snow on its body.
Yiyi walked forward, looking down at Lu Ye who was lying on the ground. She chuckled, "I won!"
Lu Ye was buried in the snow, only revealing his face. He quietly looked at the heavy snow falling from the sky, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Suddenly, he jumped up, half-squatted, and raised his hand to grasp the hilt of his saber. Clear hot air slowly exhaled from his mouth, and the falling snow quickly melted before it landed on his body. A sharp aura gathered around him, and his entire person seemed to have turned into a long saber.
The spirit and tiger hurriedly jumped to the side, adopting a defensive posture.
However, Lu Ye did not move for a long time. He slowly closed his eyes, maintaining the posture of holding his saber. At a certain moment, his eyes opened, and his saber suddenly unsheathed. A fiery red saber light flashed, and a bright saber light slashed out!
The saber light was like a crescent moon. It flew out from the saber, breaking through the restraints of space, and slashed out a distance of more than thirty meters. It sank into the stone wall, leaving a deep mark on it.
After this slash, Lu Ye slowly took a deep breath, and slowly returned his saber to its sheath. All kinds of comprehension of his saber techniques surged in his heart, and compared to before, he had a deeper understanding.
Who said that one could only break through through through secluded cultivation? This snowball fight was very worth it.
However, being able to break through the bottleneck of his saber techniques at this time was also related to the various accumulations during this period of time. This accumulation had reached a limit, and he only needed an opportunity to break through. Lu Ye had been looking for this opportunity before, but unfortunately, he did not find it.
It wasn't until he had a snowball fight with Yiyi and Hu Po without any distractions that the opportunity that he couldn't find for so long appeared on its own.
People said that when one was cultivating, one should be relaxed and have the Dao. This was quite reasonable.
"Lu Ye, the house is gone." Yiyi said bitterly.
Lu Ye looked up and saw that the house where he and Shen Kitten used to live had collapsed. It was collapsed by the snowballs. The other houses had also become dilapidated. Without the spirit spring, the spiritual land was already dilapidated. Now, it was even more messy.
"where are we" and where.
.. and..... and....
The spirit spring of this spiritual land had been taken away, so there was no point in staying. Lu Ye had planned to wait for Hu Po to become a Daemon General before leaving.
Hearing Lu Ye's words, Hu Po immediately perked up. He had a very good relationship with Giant Armor, and they were almost inseparable from each other on the Spirit Stream battlefield. Unfortunately, Hu Po had not seen Giant Armor since it became a Cloud River.
Hu Po's Daemon Qi surged, and he turned into the size of a cat, leaping onto Lu Ye's shoulder.
Lu Ye summoned his spirit boat, and Yiyi jumped in front of him to sit cross-legged. Facing the wind and snow, the spirit boat soared into the sky.
Compared to a low-grade spirit tool, a mid-grade spirit tool was undoubtedly much more comfortable. At the very least, it had the protection of a spirit barrier. This way, no matter how strong the wind and snow were, it would not affect Lu Ye and Yiyi.
Flying in a direction as fast as lightning, Yiyi's cheerful singing drifted down along the way. She was singing the song Lu Ye had sung for her before.
Lu Ye flew on his spirit tool while holding Hu Po in his hand to check on its changes.
Compared to before, Hu Po, who was now a Daemon General, seemed to have become smoother and more lustrous. His aura was also much more vigorous.
A Demonic Beast becoming a Daemon General was similar to a cultivator breaking through from the Spirit Stream Realm to the Cloud River Realm. There was a huge leap in strength.
However, there was no battle, so Lu Ye was not sure how strong Hu Po had become.
"Awoo!" Hu Po growled.
Lu Ye understood and took out a Daemon Core from his storage space. Hu Po bit down on it and held it in his mouth. Immediately after, he heard the sound of chewing.
Hu Po could eat Spirit Pills and even spirit stones. However, his favorite food was the Daemon Cores of Demonic Beasts. Ever since he had tasted Daemon Cores in the Cloud River Battlefield, Hu Po could not forget them.
Lu Ye did not have many Daemon Cores on hand. He had obtained them all from the Myriad Beast Realm's secret realm, and he only had a dozen or so.
The thick clouds in the sky dispersed, and the sun shone down.
The snow had stopped.
"Yiyi, you take control." Lu Ye pointed Yiyi in a direction and let her control the Spirit Boat. He took out some materials from his storage space that he had bought from the Heavenly Secret Commerce Alliance to refine Array Flags.
He had refined Array Flags before, but at that time, his cultivation wasn't high enough, so he had to refine them in the Artifact Refining Workshop of the Sky Expanse Sect. Now that his cultivation had reached the Third-Order Cloud River Realm, he could refine Array Flags in the air without any external assistance.
Previously, when he was waiting for Hu Po to break through, he had also refined some Array Flags. However, for a cultivator like him who was proficient in the Dao of Arrays, the more Array Flags he had, the better. After all, Array Flags were often consumables.
When night fell, Yiyi found a place to rest. They would continue their journey when the sun rose.
The bonfire crackled. Lu Ye took out a palm-sized copper plate from his storage space and used his Spirit Energy to investigate it.
"Did you find this in the storage bag of that Shenxing Sect cultivator from last time?" Yiyi came up to him.
"En."
Last time, on the way back from the Heavenly Secret Commerce Alliance to the Spirit Land, they had met a Shenxing Sect cultivator who was seriously injured and on the verge of death. The other party had entrusted Lu Ye to return his sword to Shenxing Sect. Other than that, Lu Ye could keep all his belongings.
This copper plate was found in the other party's storage bag.
When Lu Ye had poured his Spirit Energy into it, he had noticed that there was something in a certain direction that had some connection with the copper plate.
However, at that time, Lu Ye had not been in the mood to investigate the secrets hidden in the copper plate. The reason why he had taken it out now was because the direction the copper plate was resonating with was the direction he was heading in.
"What is this?"
"I'm not sure."
Since they were heading in the same direction, he could find an opportunity to investigate. Of course, if the distance was too far, he would still have to meet up with Giant Armor first.
Putting away the copper plate, Lu Ye took out some materials to refine Array Flags. Only after midnight did he rest for a while.
He traveled during the day and rested at night. The journey was safe and sound.
Three days later, Lu Ye held the copper plate in his hand and steered the spirit boat. He was circling above an undulating mountain range. According to the copper plate in his hand, the place he was looking for should be within this range. However, he still had to search carefully for the exact location.
On the map, this mountain range was not even specially marked. Looking at the entire Cloud River Battlefield, there were countless mountain ranges like this.
Lu Ye did not see anything special about this place. However, since the copper plate was guiding him, there was clearly something hidden in this place.
It was not until an hour later that Lu Ye confirmed the exact location. He landed in front of a rock wall.
When he arrived, the copper plate in his hand suddenly glowed. It was also faintly burning his hand.
"Lu Ye, over here!" Yiyi waved from the side. Clearly, she had discovered something.
Lu Ye followed the sound and saw a pit in front of the rock wall. The shape of the pit was exactly the same as the copper plate in his hand.
Lu Ye held the copper plate and raised his hand to place it in the pit. At the same time, he pressed his hand on the hilt of his saber and secretly urged his Spirit Energy to guard against any accidents.
He did not know what he could find here or whether he would encounter any danger. Naturally, he had to maintain sufficient vigilance.
No danger appeared. After the copper plate was embedded in the pit, the thick rock wall in front of him suddenly surged with Spirit Energy and turned into a light curtain.
Lu Ye hesitated for a moment and called Yiyi to let her return to Hu Po's body first. Only then did he step forward.
His figure passed through the light curtain and walked in without any hindrance. At the same time, the copper plate flashed with golden light and a golden light enveloped Lu Ye.
After Lu Ye walked into the light curtain, the rock wall returned to its original appearance. Even the copper plate that Lu Ye had embedded in the rock wall had mysteriously disappeared, leaving only a pit.
His vision was pitch-black. Lu Ye raised his Mountain Saber and constructed a Sunshine Spirit Rune. It was as if he was holding a small sun, illuminating his surroundings.
There was no aura of living creatures. Lu Ye felt a strong sense of familiarity with the place he was in.
In Evil Moon Valley, he often went in and out of places like this.
This was a mine tunnel.
Looking back, he could no longer see the rock wall he had entered from. Behind him was also a deep mine tunnel, extending into the darkness.
After passing through the light curtain, Lu Ye seemed to have been directly transported in.
This made him somewhat puzzled. What exactly was this place? He thought that following the copper plate's guidance would lead him to some treasure, but he did not expect to directly enter this mine tunnel.
Under the light of the Sunshine Spirit Rune, the mine tunnel sparkled.
Lu Ye stepped forward to investigate and raised his eyebrows, revealing a surprised expression. Yiyi also flashed forward and exclaimed a moment later, "Lu Ye, there are so many Spirit Stones. We're rich!"
Those sparkling things were actually pieces of spirit stones that were exposed to the air.
This was actually a Spirit Stone mine!
For all cultivators, Spirit Stones were indispensable materials for cultivation. Swallowing Spirit Pills would lead to the accumulation of Pill Toxins, and the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth would be limited by the environment. Therefore, when cultivators cultivated and recovered, they would hold Spirit Stones in their hands and absorb the Spirit Energy in the Spirit Stones. Spirit Stream Stage cultivators generally used low-grade Spirit Stones. Only when they reached the Cloud River Stage would they use mid-grade Spirit Stones, because the Spirit Energy provided by low-grade Spirit Stones could not keep up with the recovery of Cloud River Stage cultivators.
