Because a golden spiritual stick could last for a little more than a day and a night, Lu Ye could no longer patrol every day since he started cultivating.
He could only patrol every other day.
Fortunately, there were no enemies in the Blue Flame Mountain Pass. As long as the Nian Yue Immortal stayed here, the Myriad Demons Ridge would not dare to invade. The deterrence of a top ghost cultivator in the Spirit Sea Realm was too great. No one knew where she would hide. If someone dared to sneak over, they would be exposed and killed by her.
The transaction with the Law Division was also carried out as scheduled. The Explosive Fire Spirit Stones that Lu Ye refined while cultivating were enough to meet the requirements of the task.
Time flew by, and nearly half a month later.
The last of the ten golden spiritual sticks was consumed. The golden vortex in front of him slowly disappeared, and the cultivation was over.
Lu Ye opened his eyes and examined his cultivation, feeling the rapid growth in the past half a month.
The benefits brought to him after the transformation of the Talent Tree were greater than he had expected. This was because when the roots of the Talent Tree reached into the golden vortex to absorb the pure and rich spiritual energy of the world inside the vortex, the efficiency was simply incomparable to that of the small funnel.
At first, he thought that the three times difference in environment meant that the cultivation efficiency was three times higher.
When he really started cultivating, he found that this was not the case.
If the cultivation method of building the small funnel was called absorption, then the cultivation method of the Talent Tree's roots reaching into the world opposite the vortex was completely plundering.
One was passively accepting the spiritual power flowing out of the golden vortex, and the other was actively acquiring it. There was no comparison at all.
Lu Ye felt that the efficiency of his cultivation using a golden spiritual stick was more than ten times faster than normal.
Of course, the difference in the environment inside and outside the vortex was also one of the reasons for this result.
Outside the vortex, there was pure spiritual power that could be directly absorbed, but inside the vortex, there was the kind of spiritual liquid that had been liquefied.
In half a month, his cultivation had undergone earth-shaking changes. It could be said that since he started cultivating, he had never experienced such a terrifying speed of advancement, even in the Cloud River Realm.
Advancing too quickly was not necessarily a good thing. During this period of cultivation, he would occasionally enter the mirage realm to hone himself, just to familiarize himself with the growth of his cultivation as soon as possible.
The ten golden spirit sticks he had exchanged for had been used up, and Lu Ye was not going to exchange any more golden spirit sticks for cultivation in the short term. Although the feeling of rapidly increasing his cultivation base was fascinating, he would never indulge in it.
He had to stabilize his cultivation base for a period of time before he could continue cultivating.
He led Hu Po and Yiyi out of the bamboo building. Just as he was about to patrol the surroundings, a fragrant wind suddenly lingered around his nose.
By the time Lu Ye regained his senses, the Thought Moon Immortal was already standing in front of him.
The distance between them was less than a foot!
Lu Ye jumped in fright and hurriedly took a few steps back. He cupped his fists and bowed, "Milord!"
Their Mountain Pass Master was always so elusive. For the past half a month, they hadn't even seen his shadow. Today, he had suddenly appeared.
At this moment, Nian Yue Xian was sizing up Lu Ye with uncertainty. She spread out her Divine Sense and carefully examined him. Although she had already come to a conclusion, she still couldn't be sure. "Third-Order True Lake Realm."
Half a month ago, when Lu Ye returned from Grand Sky City, he was only a First-Order True Lake cultivator.
Half a month later, he had actually reached the Third-Order True Lake Realm.
Even though Nian Yue Xian was experienced and knowledgeable, she had never seen such an outrageous thing.
Moreover, how could such a thing happen? The cultivation of the True Lake Realm required one to undergo the Nine Revolutions of Spirit Energy. Every time one's cultivation base increased, the amount of Spirit Energy required was extremely large. The further one progressed, the harder it was to progress. Even if Lu Ye had enough merit points to maintain the state of cultivation with the golden spirit stick, it was still impossible for him to advance two Minor Realms in half a month.
However, such an outrageous thing had actually happened right under her nose.
Nian Yue Xian had always given Lu Ye the impression that she was as cold as ice. But now, her face was filled with surprise and shock. It was a visual contrast that made him feel funny.
Lu Ye didn't dare to laugh. He only replied seriously, "Milord's eyes are like torches."
Lu Ye wasn't surprised that Nian Yue Xian could see through his cultivation. The difference between their cultivations was obvious. With a sweep of her Divine Sense, his cultivation was naturally exposed.
Nian Yue Xian was stunned for a moment.
Lu Ye waited for a moment. She didn't seem to have any intention of speaking. He could only say, "If Milord doesn't have any further instructions, this subordinate will go on patrol."
"Go." Nian Yue Xian nodded.
She watched Lu Ye's back as he left. She was still in a daze for a long time.
A familiar figure once again appeared in her mind.
The last time she had been seriously injured and on the verge of death, Lu Ye had used some inexplicable method to bring her back to life. In a daze, she saw the figure of that person on Lu Ye's body.
Back then, she had almost encountered the same danger. That person had also saved her like a divine soldier descending from the heavens. Since then, she had wholeheartedly followed and served that person until he died in battle.
It was the same today.
Back then, that person's cultivation had also risen so quickly that it was inconceivable.
She wasn't in the mood to investigate Lu Ye's secrets. Not to mention that Lu Ye was her subordinate, he had saved her life last time. Nian Yue Xian couldn't possibly have any ill intentions towards Lu Ye.
She was bewildered. The Blue Blood Sect … would such a monstrous genius always appear?
Previously, when she heard that the great Sects of Myriad Demon Ridge viewed him as a thorn in their side, she felt that Myriad Demon Ridge was making a big fuss over nothing. No matter how outstanding Lu Ye's performance in the Spirit Stream Battlefield and the Cloud River Battlefield was, he was still just a little guy in the Spirit Stream Realm and Cloud River Realm. He couldn't affect the situation of the two camps.
But now, it seemed that there were clearly people in Myriad Demon Ridge who understood. Coupled with the previous incident, it was a bit like 'once bitten, twice shy'.
Regarding this potential danger, she had to nip it in the bud.
Third-Order True Lake Realm …
If that was the case, she might be able to put that matter on the agenda.

Originally, she had long since given up on this matter, but since her life was saved by Lu Ye, and after witnessing his miraculous methods, she couldn't help but think about it again, because if she had the help of that method, she might have a chance to succeed.
And once she succeeded, her strength would definitely improve greatly. At that time, as long as she found the opportunity, she would definitely be able to kill Wan Zhang Gang!
As these thoughts flashed through her mind, Nian Yue Xian made her decision.
Dozens of kilometres away from Ash Flame Mountain Pass, Lu Ye stood still and looked in the direction of the volcanic crater.
At the end of the siege of Lonely Mountain City, he was worried about Nian Yue Xian's safety and chased after her. He really didn't know how the battle would turn out.
But judging from the situation at that time, the Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators would have no problem defending Lonely Mountain City, but there would definitely be a lot of casualties.
He didn't care about the situation in Lonely Mountain City, only about the volcanic crater.
There were many Fire Spirit Stones that had yet to be mined in the underground cave …
Even though he now had a stable channel to obtain Fire Spirit Stones, and he hadn't used up all the ones he plundered last time, every time he cultivated, he would need to consume the stored fuel to activate the power of his Talent Tree.
His current state of cultivation was basically to activate the power of his Talent Tree while absorbing the energy of the Fire Spirit Stones, which consumed a lot of energy.
There were still many leaves on his Talent Tree that hadn't been ignited, which was where he needed the Fire Spirit Stones the most.
If he didn't think of a way to get more income, sooner or later, he would run out of money.
Let's go take a look.
Even though he didn't think there was much hope, there might be some gains. There was no loss in taking a look.
Previously, he was busy cultivating and didn't have time to think about this. Now that he had this thought, he couldn't hold it in anymore.
Along the way, before they even reached the mouth of the volcano, they saw many figures flying back and forth in the distance. They were all busy and in full swing.
When Lu Ye saw this, he knew that his plan was hopeless.
The Myriad Demon Ridge was obviously mining the Fire Spirit Stones in the underground cave. Everything good in there was going to be swept clean.
Lu Ye could use the battlefield imprint of the Myriad Demon Ridge to blend in, but the reason he could do it so smoothly last time was because Lonely Mountain City was facing a powerful enemy, and no one could verify his identity.
If he did it again this time, it might not be so smooth. If someone wanted to verify his identity, he wouldn't be able to justify himself.
Moreover, even if he blended in, it wouldn't be of any use. He couldn't secretly mine the Fire Spirit Stones by himself. How much could he collect?
Unless he had the ability to sneak into Lonely Mountain City's treasury and loot it clean.
This thought flashed through his mind, but Lu Ye quickly rejected it. It was too dangerous.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a familiar figure flying out of the volcanic crater.
When he took a closer look, it was indeed the person he knew. Moreover, the spiritual power fluctuations on her body were obviously not something a Cloud River Tier cultivator could possess.
She had also advanced to the True Lake Tier!
Looking at the direction she was flying in, it seemed to be toward Lonely Mountain City.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye did not disturb them. Although they had spent a period of time together and had even worked together for a short period of time, their positions were ultimately different. If they met on the battlefield in the future, they would still be enemies who needed to fight.
But then again, when Lu Ye was still in the Return to Heaven Valley Spiritual Land, many cultivators from the Myriad Demon Ridge were about to encircle and annihilate him. It was this woman who secretly informed Lu Ye, telling him to escape.
Although Lu Ye didn't escape in the end, he still owed her a favor.
Therefore, if they really met in the future, he could consider going easy on her.
When he returned from his patrol, he happened to see a cultivator from Vast Sky City waiting outside his bamboo house.
This person was a subordinate of Gan Wu Dang and was in charge of taking the refined Exploding Fire Spirit Stones from Lu Ye. His name was Cheng Xiu. He had met Lu Ye a few times and was somewhat familiar with him.
However, at this moment, this Fifth-Order True Lake Realm cultivator seemed to be in a bad situation.
He stood stiffly in front of the bamboo house, not daring to move. His face was as pale as paper, and large beads of sweat slid down his forehead. His clothes were already wet.
One of his hands gripped the sword at his waist so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
It couldn't be helped because Thought Moon Immortal was sitting on the trunk of a big tree not far away. Her hands were on both sides of the tree and her two long legs were swinging. Her expression seemed relaxed, but a fierce aura filled the air and affected Cheng Xiu's will.
