Four days later, late at night.
The Eight Ancient Continents, Sky-Reaching Peak.
The dark sky suddenly brightened up. In the palace of the Sky-Reaching Peak, Lu An's figure appeared after the light pillar disappeared.
That's right, Lu An came here to cultivate again. This time, he cultivated for three days, but the results were not ideal. Could it be like what Lonemoon said, that before becoming a Level Nine Heavenly Master, it would be difficult to have a qualitative leap in understanding the power of the stars?
Lu An opened his eyes slowly and frowned slightly. The lack of results made him very dissatisfied with himself. However, he could not waste any more time here, so he prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Lu An walked to the edge of the Sky-Reaching Peak. The wind here was still biting cold, so Lu An did not dare to fly here.
Looking down, he could only see a thin layer of clouds. Even the clouds were very far away from here. Following that, Lu An looked up at the sky. The night sky was densely covered with stars. The bright moon hung high in the sky, without any obstruction. It was as if the vast universe was closer to him than the earth.
The last time he had this feeling was at the top of the Star Evolution Tower. Although the top of the Star Evolution Tower was not as high as the Sky-Reaching Peak, when Lu An climbed to the top of the tower, he felt as if the stars were within his reach. It was even more obvious than now.
What kind of height could he fly to?
Lu An thought to himself. Looking at the endless night sky, he really wanted to do his best to rush higher into the night sky. Just like how he wanted to fly down from the Sky-Reaching Peak, he wanted to know how high the second peak was.
However … Lu An held himself back in the end. He felt that either of these two things would pose a serious threat to his life. He would not do something that was both dangerous and not without benefits.
Soon, Lu An activated the teleportation array and left the Sky-Reaching Peak.

In the night sky of the Eight Ancient Continents.
Lu An's figure flitted across the night sky, flying in the sky. His eyes were red as he activated the Realm of Demon Gods. Lu An did not encounter any danger, and he was only doing this for the sake of cultivation. He would often activate the Realm of the Demon Gods during his cultivation. He would even activate it at the same time as the three Holy Fire Realms. Even if he had explosive powers, he would still need to cultivate. Lu An would not slack off at all.
When activating the Realm of the Demon Gods during cultivation, Lu An would directly activate it to the limit, or even a little beyond the limit, allowing himself to constantly adapt and try to control it, thus increasing the extent of his limits. At the same time, activating the Realm of the Demon Gods would greatly increase Lu An's perception, especially his perception of negative auras. It would give him the ability to predict danger while traveling.
Along the way, Lu An was looking for exotic beasts everywhere. However, exotic beasts mostly slept at night, so it was not easy to find them. Up until now, Lu An had only found a few low-level Mystical Beasts. He hadn't even encountered a single Rank 8 Mystical Beast.
The aura of death spread and covered a huge area. Lu An sensed his surroundings while thinking about the relationship and differences between Astral Power and Spirit. Ever since he started learning Astral Power, he had been thinking about this question. He thought about it, overturned it, thought about it again, and overturned it again. Lu An was constantly debating with himself, trying to find the true connection between the two.
However …
Suddenly, Lu An's body shook violently. He immediately stopped and stood in the air, turning his head to look to the left in front of him!
His eyes immediately became very serious. The dark pair of eyes were darker than the night. His red eyes were like red stars in the dark, brighter than the stars in the night sky. Lu An was even worried that he might be hallucinating. However, when he focused all his attention on the left in front of him, the feeling became even more obvious!
It wasn't strange, but … familiar!
A familiar aura spread from the left in front of him, but it made Lu An frown more and more. His pair of red eyes seemed to be flashing.
Aura of death.
Lu An possessed the power of death. Even if this aura was very far away and very weak, he definitely wouldn't be mistaken. However, it was fortunate that he had activated the Realm of Demon Gods. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sense such a vague aura of death.
The appearance of the aura of death made Lu An think of only one possibility.
Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone!
Lu An's brows were completely locked. As the son-in-law of Sengoku and Yao's husband, he had an absolute obligation to collect the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone. No matter what dangers lay ahead, he had to go and investigate.
Immediately, Lu An moved and changed his direction, heading to the left in front of him at an extremely fast speed. As the distance continued to shrink, the perception of the aura of death became more and more obvious. When this aura of death became very clear and even slightly dense, Lu An slowed down his speed. He closed the Realm of Demon Gods and tried to restrain his aura as much as possible. Under the protection of the Hidden Immortal Ring, he hid as much as possible. After he flew forward for a distance, the aura of death finally became very dense.
With Lu An's current strength, his perception of the aura of death was very strong. Even if he didn't activate the Realm of Demon Gods, it was still the same. In the night sky, Lu An quickly reduced his speed and descended from the sky, quickly landing on the ground.
Swish —
Lu An's figure was almost silently suspended above the grass. At this moment, he was at the edge of a huge forest.
According to Lu An's estimation, there should still be some distance from the source of the aura of death. However, it must be in this forest, there was no mistake. Especially under the shade of the trees, in the forest, the aura of death became even more obvious. There didn't seem to be any living creatures in this forest. However, from the looks of these plants, they weren't affected by the aura of death for long. Otherwise, these plants would definitely have died.
Lu An tried his best to move forward silently in the forest. His speed wasn't fast, but he still prioritized self-preservation. At the same time, he quietly spread out his own aura of death, merging it with the aura of death in the forest. In this way, even if there were people or strange beasts here, they might not be able to distinguish the difference.
Lu An didn't move forward by stepping on the grass, but flew forward at a low altitude. The aura of death was getting stronger and stronger. According to Lu An's previous experience, to be able to release such a huge aura of death, even if it was the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone, it definitely wouldn't be a small piece. And if it was released by a person … … it would at least be equivalent to the strength of a late stage eighth level.
However, if it was only like this, it was still easy to deal with. For Lu An, it wasn't much of a threat. Lu An continued to move forward. Finally, after moving forward cautiously for a long time, he stopped.
The aura of death here was very strong, it could even be described as completely overwhelming. Lu An stood in the darkness, hiding himself and looking forward.
If Lu An's estimation was not wrong, then the source of the aura of death should be a hundred feet in front of him. However, Lu An's line of sight didn't see anyone or anything. This made Lu An frown even more.
Suddenly, Lu An's body trembled, and he immediately looked at the grass under his feet!
This aura of death was coming out from underground!
Lu An's eyes slightly focused, looking at the ground under his feet. After carefully sensing it, not only did he discover the aura of death gushing out from underground, but he also discovered the aura of other forces. However, these forces were more like some kind of array. Could it be that the Bloody Mountain Red Moon Stone was in some kind of array?
Guessing was useless. Lu An had to go underground to find out the truth. However, he was now on the grass. If there were no people or strange beasts below, it would be fine. He was confident that he could open the array below to find out. Even if there were people or strange beasts below, he could still do it if their strength wasn't high. However, if there were a ninth level Heavenly Master or a ninth level strange beast below, then he would lose his life here.
After hesitating for a while, Lu An still decided to go inside. If there were a ninth level Heavenly Master or a ninth level strange beast, he should have been taken down by now. Since he was still alive, it meant that the other party's strength had not reached a higher level than his.
Taking a light breath, Lu An immediately chose to move. Both his feet and legs sank into the ground in an instant, and his entire body seemed to sink as he flew straight down toward the grassland. However, the problem was that the grass didn't change at all, not to mention a depression or a deep pit. Lu An's whole body was like an illusion as he quickly sank down and disappeared into the forest.
