Xi Yun was really grateful to Lin Ray. She swore in her heart that she would stay by Lin Ray's side for the rest of her life and serve him wholeheartedly.
As for Qiong Wang, he left after chatting with Lin Ray for a while. Of course, he had achieved his goal of befriending Lin Ray.
As for whether Lin Ray wanted to befriend him or not, that was his business. He felt that Qiong Wang was a person with deep thoughts and was not a person to be met easily.
After Qiong Wang left, Lin Ray breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that there were no major problems in the store, he couldn't help but walk towards his room.
"Xi Yun, guard outside. Before I come out, no one is allowed to enter. Do you understand?"
There was no other reason. After receiving the news that he had leveled up, he couldn't help himself. If it weren't for the fact that someone was there, he would have directly added that level of experience to himself.
"Understood," Xi Yun replied.
Dong!
After the door closed, Lin Ray went to the bed and sat cross-legged. He communicated with the storage space of the system with his divine sense. Looking at the two talisman-like things, he was stunned. With a thought, two pieces of paper floated in front of Lin Ray.
"F * ck, this is … experience and exchange points?" Lin Ray wasn't sure. However, looking at this operation, he felt that it was a bit too sloppy!
It wasn't a bit, it was really too sloppy. Lin Ray already felt that the two pieces of paper were too shabby. Who knew that the moment the two pieces of paper were turned over, Lin Ray would be stunned on the spot.
He saw that on the two pieces of paper, one was the experience points, and the other was the three million exchange points. Looking at these two sloppy and unsightly things, Linley had the urge to pull out the System and give it a good beating.
The system said, "Host, it's already very good to have these things."
"Remember, it's better than nothing. It's better than nothing. It's better to let you cultivate on your own!"
Seeing Lin Ray's stunned expression, the system couldn't help but continue, "Don't forget, you still owe the system a lot of money. Now that you have three million, you should thank the heavens!"
"No matter how small a fly is, it's still meat. It's better than not having me around."
"If I were you, I wouldn't care so much. I would just crush them and make myself stronger."
Lin Ray: …
He understood what the system said, but looking at the two pieces of paper, he felt a little strange.
Moreover, wasn't there a saying that the system's products must be of the highest quality? What was happening now?
When did the system slack off?
Looking at the two pieces of paper in front of him, Lin Ray grumbled in his heart for a long time. Finally, he calmed down and reached out to grab the paper containing the experience points in his hand. Suddenly, the paper was torn apart.
Suddenly, a surge of pure holy spiritual energy entered Linley's body through his hand as soon as the paper was torn to shreds.
Feeling the pure Saint Spiritual Qi, Lin Ray could not wait to use his inner vision to check his cultivation base which had stagnated for a long time. He was looking for an indescribable speed to level up …
Lin Ray felt an indescribable sense of comfort as the Holy Spirit Qi washed over him, opening all the pores on his body. Lin Ray thoroughly enjoyed this moment.
"If I can bathe in this rich Holy Spirit Qi, I won't have to worry about not being able to break through!"
The system sneered, "Host, you're dreaming."
"This level of Holy Spirit Qi, not to mention that it doesn't exist, even if it does, it's not something you can have at your level."
"As the saying goes, if you're too beautiful, don't dream too much. Well, your dream isn't that great either. Why is it always better than daydreaming?"
"…"
The system's heartless words made Lin Ray completely speechless. Lin Ray could not accept the system's current changes.
The change was too big. It was like a chatterbox. Moreover, the degree of sarcasm was almost on par with the Little Dragon.
Little Dragon: "Damn you, when did I have a sarcastic mouth? Didn't I say that to motivate you before?"
Without responding to the system, he closed his eyes and quietly felt the pleasure of leveling up brought by the rich Holy Spirit Qi.
"Hmm?"
"This is …?"
Just as Lin Ray was breaking through, Hong Yun and the others who were cultivating abruptly opened their eyes. Their gazes locked onto Lin Ray's room as their eyes were filled with astonishment.
"Sect Leader broke through, he broke through!"
Yes, that's right. Lin Ray was breaking through and as the ones closest to him, they could naturally sense it.
This was especially so for Lin Feiran who was also at the Saint Realm. When he saw Lin Ray's room, his heart was filled with shock.
Before this, during the battle, he could only sense that Lin Ray had just entered the Saint Realm. But now … in just a few days, his cultivation base had already broken through.
Lin Xian`er was the same as well. However, the difference was that she was extremely happy when Lin Ray broke through. As his daughter, how could she not wish for her father to become stronger?!
And all of this, Lin Ray didn't know. Because of his breakthrough, Hong Yun and the others felt even more motivated to break through as well.
In the room, around the bed, Lin Ray was currently enveloped by the Holy Spirit Qi. As he stretched his body out, Lin Ray's face relaxed. The coldness on his face was gone, replaced by a comfortable expression.
Within his body, there was something similar to a demonic beast's core. His nostrils were constantly expanding and the speed of this expansion was getting faster and faster.
The Holy Spirit Core was the symbol of becoming a Saint. Only by possessing the Holy Spirit Core would one be able to prove that one was a Saint.
… … …
In a cave in the back mountains of the Radiant Sun Sect, Hong Lian and Ming Ming stood in front of a white jade-colored fruit tree. Their gazes were locked onto the tree with a dazed expression on their faces.
"Damn, after such a long time, all we found was a tree?"
In the cave, the two of them encountered many formations and dangerous situations. After a long period of exploration, they thought that there would be a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel. Who would have thought that … the last thing they found was this strange-looking white jade-colored tree.
Looking at the tree, Hong Lian's mouth twitched. With a dazed expression, she smiled and said, "It's fine. Just take it as an experience. After all, there's nothing much to do in the sect."
"Weren't the dangers we encountered previously quite exciting as well?" Hong Lian felt like crying when she thought of what they encountered in the cave.
Illusory realms, killing formations, trapping formations, demonic beasts, sacred beasts, everything they could think of. Although this trip was easy, they did not expect to arrive at this place. It took them a long time to escape from it.
If the two of them did not have the strength of a Saint, they would have died in the illusory realms as soon as they entered the cave!
Although they did not want to agree with what Hong Lian said, she was right. It was indeed as she said.
"Then. How do we deal with this thing? " Ming Ming pointed at the white jade-colored tree. As the saying goes, a thief does not leave empty-handed. After putting in so much effort to get here, it was impossible for them to return empty-handed.
"Tsk …" Looking at the white jade-colored tree, Hong Lian pondered for a moment and said, "I have. Although I don't know what this thing is, since there are so many things blocking the passage, it should be something good."
"Let's move it first. As for the details, we will wait for the Sect Master to return before deciding."
"Okay!"
The two of them agreed and walked toward the white jade-colored tree. They circulated their cultivation and looked like they had to act tough.
"Pfft …"
As the two of them slowly walked toward the white jade-colored tree, the ground began to tremble. The sound of earth breaking came from behind them. A root similar to the white jade-colored tree rushed out and turned into a spear, aiming at their backs.
The speed was so fast that it carried the force of a thunderbolt. It came so suddenly that it was impossible for the two to guard against it.
"Not good, retreat!"
Feeling the chill from behind, Ming Ming shouted and rushed to the side.
As for Hong Lian, it was obvious that she was slow to react. After Ming Ming escaped, she came back to her senses. However, for Hong Lian, who had a Dao Fruit at the peak of the Saint Realm, even if she was slow to react, she still managed to dodge the fatal attack.
Feeling the cold intent approaching, he rolled to the side, barely dodging it.
At such a critical moment, posture, elegance, nothing was important. The most important thing was her own life.
If she lost her life, she would lose everything. At that time, so what if she was elegant? So what if she had dignity and posture? Everything was nonsense.
"Pfft, pfft."
However, the two of them dodged, but the matter did not end there. The moment they dodged, two more earth-shattering sounds could be heard. At the place where the two of them landed, the white jade tree roots once again burst out from the ground, aiming at the two of them from bottom to top.
It was faster than before. If they were hit, the two of them would definitely have their intestines lengthened and their hearts would be pierced.
"Bastard."
Feeling the cold days, Ming Ming was furious. He took out his long sword and slashed at the white jade-colored tree root.
"Clang!" The sound of weapons colliding rang through the air.
"What?"
Seeing that the tree root was not cut by him, Ming Ming's expression changed. He warned Hong Lian in the distance, "Dodge! Weapons are useless against them."
"Pfft!"
It was too late. As soon as Ming Ming warned, the tree root rushed to Hong Lian. If not for her strong cultivation, she would have dodged to the side and the tree root would have pierced her arm. If she had been a moment slower, she would have been pierced.
"Whoosh!"
His figure disappeared. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Hong Lian. He reached out and hugged her, then flashed again and retreated far away.
"Pfft! Pfft!
Pfft! "More than a dozen white jade-colored tree roots broke through the ground and formed a tree wall, separating the two of them from the white jade-colored tree.
Helpless, in the end, Ming Ming brought Hong Lian to the edge of the exit before stopping.
"Are you okay?"
He stopped and looked at Hong Lian with concern. Hong Lian was his companion and comrade. If he lost such a strong comrade in such a place, there was only one outcome for him — death.
Especially in front of this thing that he did not want to know. He did not expect the other party to be so fast. Moreover, the tree root was so tough that even a supreme-grade divine artifact could not do anything to it. It did not even leave a mark.
"I'm fine!"
Hong Lian frowned. Feeling the pain from her arm, she replied.
She looked up at the tree root blocking her way, and her expression turned ugly.
The two Great Perfection Dao Fruit Saints were helpless against these tree roots. Moreover, the other party had clearly held back. Otherwise, the only thing that awaited them would be the tree roots piercing through their bodies, and they would die without a complete corpse.
What she didn't understand was what this unremarkable white jade tree was. It was so powerful that they didn't even have the slightest ability to resist it.
If the sect master of the Sacred World saw this white jade-colored tree, he would definitely recognize it and would not even be willing to stay. He would turn around and leave.
In the Sacred World, this kind of tree was restricted. There was no other reason but because it was too powerful. It was so powerful that they could not subdue it.
"The Devil Tree, one of the natural spiritual roots. Of course, this kind of tree is naturally murderous. They will not hesitate to kill those who enter their territory."
The Devil Tree could reach the heavens when it matured. Clearly, this Devil Tree had not yet matured. It was still a sapling.
It was also because of this that the two of them could escape from the Devil Tree's claws. Otherwise …
"What do we do? Should we inform the sect master? "Hong Lian asked after glancing at the Devil Tree.
She could not do anything about this tree. Even if the two of them worked together, they would not be able to defeat it.
Ming Ming had experienced the strength of the Devil Tree, but he had to inform the sect master. He had reservations about this matter.
"Let's not. Let's leave first. As for this thing, let's use a formation to hide it first. We will go back and check the records of the Sacred World's demonic beasts."
"If we can deal with it, why bother the sect master? The sect master is in the Azure Xuan Empire now. It is very far away. It will take too much time to go back and forth."
"The sect master has his own things to do. Let's not bother him with such a small matter."
"Alright!"
Hong Lian nodded. She thought it was a heavenly treasure. She did not expect it to be a tree. She thought she could bring it back as a decoration. She did not expect that the other party's cultivation would make them helpless.
"Let's go!"
As he spoke, he held Hong Lian's hand and walked out. This time, the two of them were defeated.
Lin Ray, who was in the Azure Xuan Empire far away from the imperial capital, did not know what happened to the two of them.
"Boom!"
Inside the room, a surge of Saint Spirit Qi vibrated, and the pressure instantly rushed out in all directions.
"Breakthrough!"
"Breakthrough!"
In the Nine Heavens Shop, Hong Yun and the others felt the aura and said to themselves.
In the room, feeling the power in his body, his face was full of smiles.
"I finally broke through."
The Saint Spiritual Core in his body was only the size of a baby's fist. Now, it had grown to the size of an adult's fist. Lin Ray was very satisfied.
Although a mid-stage Dao Fruit Saint had only advanced by a small stage, he knew better than anyone that it was very difficult to break through.
The system said, "Others need a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times the time you need to break through a stage. You, on the other hand, find it slow!"
"Why? Do you think it is normal if you directly ride a rocket and reach the peak of Dao in the blink of an eye?"
"…"
The system's merciless attack made Lin Ray want to die.
Previously, it was the Little Dragon. Now that the Little Dragon was not here, the system perfectly accepted the role of the Little Dragon.
"System, what's wrong with you?"
"Why did it suddenly become like this?"
Lin Ray asked. He really could not see the changes in the system.
Now, he would rather the system become the silent system that could not say anything for half a day.
"Host, because of the Saint Spiritual Qi, the system is on the verge of upgrading. Host, please continue to work hard?"
"Oh, right, the system will upgrade again and break through the current stage to enter the King Stage. I hope the host will work hard in the future."
"No, I …"
"King Stage?"
"No … Aren't you only at level one to level two? Why is there another King Stage expert? "
