Lu Ye's current position was already at the limit of what he could endure. Although the ancient environment of this Starry Sky Wonder didn't affect him much, the deeper he went, the more intense the grinding force was. It wasn't something he could ignore.
The formless grinding force was extremely wondrous. Lu Ye had been fleeing all this time and hadn't had the time to carefully observe it. Only now that he had calmed down, he noticed it.
It was as if his body really was inside an invisible millstone, and every inch of his flesh and blood was being strangely ground.
His spiritual power didn't change and still flowed as before, but his flesh and blood began to move rhythmically under this wondrous grinding force.
Lu Ye tried to resist this rhythm, but found that the more he resisted, the more intense the grinding force became. Soon, his skin began to crack, and dark red blood flowed out. He was secretly shocked.
He was secretly shocked. This strange grinding power … was so strong.
One had to know that his physique was currently the strongest in the Constellation Realm. Just this level of resistance was enough to injure him. If this continued, the consequences would only be more serious.
Moreover, in the process of resisting this rhythm, Lu Ye found that not only did his flesh and blood suffer some damage, but even his blood and Qi began to show signs of weakening.
This was an inconceivable matter.
After pondering for a moment, he decided not to resist this wondrous rhythm, but to observe the changes.
Soon, Lu Ye revealed a look of surprise because under the effects of this wondrous grinding force, he clearly felt that his physique, which had been tempered to the limit, was continuing to improve.
He was greatly surprised because he felt that he had already reached the limit of the Constellation Realm. His physique should have also been tempered to the limit. Otherwise, he wouldn't have comprehended the bloodline inheritance of the Blood Tribe and condensed Treasure Blood.
But in fact, what he thought was the limit was actually not the limit!
In addition to being surprised, he was also happy because he still had room for improvement. This way, the more solid his Constellation Realm foundation was, the stronger he would be when he advanced to the Lunar and Solar Illumination Realms in the future.
A cultivator's cultivation in the Upper Three Realms mainly focused on tempering their essence, Qi, and Spirit. The reason why the essence of the physique was the first to be tempered was naturally because the physical body was the foundation of a cultivator. After that, the Qi of the Lunar Jade Realm and the Spirit of the Solar Illumination Realm were all built on the foundation of essence.
The stronger the foundation, the more powerful the Qi and Spirit it could bear.
Coming to this Yin Yang Millstone was the right choice!
Fortunately, the Reincarnation Tree had reminded him. Otherwise, Lu Ye wouldn't have remembered to come all the way here.
Even though he could still come here to temper his body after he became a Yue Yao, he wouldn't be able to benefit as much as he did now.
What a cultivator should do at a certain stage, and which aspect of cultivation they should focus on, were all fixed.
At this moment, the many Yue Yao cultivating in the Yin Yang Great Millstone were probably trying to make up for the deficiencies in their foundations. However, it was hard to say how much they would benefit.
The invisible grinding force continued to work, and the rhythm of his flesh and blood did not stop for even a moment. Under this rhythm, Lu Ye felt that his body had been strengthened yet again.
Two days later, the pressure slowly disappeared. Lu Ye got up and headed deeper into the forest.
Originally, this position was already his limit, and it was not good for him to go any deeper. However, after his physique was strengthened, his original limit was obviously broken.
It wasn't until Lu Ye reached another extreme point that he stopped.
The grinding force here was undoubtedly stronger than where he had been before. Lu Ye once again experienced the feeling of being continuously ground into a millstone. His flesh and blood wriggled violently again.
Lu Ye went deeper and deeper, breaking his own limits again and again. This kind of cultivation was addictive. Lu Ye completely forgot about the passage of time. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to see where his true limits were.
In the beginning, he could still sense the auras of some of the powerful Yue Yao cultivating here. However, as he continued to go deeper, he couldn't even see the Yue Yao's figure anymore.
This didn't mean that his physique was stronger than those Yue Yao's. Instead, it was because he could ignore the suppression of this ancient environment. He had an innate advantage over those Yue Yao. On the other hand, those Yue Yao cultivators were suppressed by the environment here, and it was hard to say how much of their strength they could unleash.
The Reincarnation Tree probably didn't expect Lu Ye to be able to go so deep. It would actually give some pointers to every cultivator it thought highly of.
However, since ancient times, there weren't many who could reach Lu Ye's level.
Part of the reason was naturally because his foundation was incomparably solid.
Another part of the reason was because he had refined countless holy blood and obtained the inheritance of the Blood Tribe. This was especially true after the birth of the precious blood, which allowed his physique to far surpass that of cultivators of the same cultivation level.
It could be said that he had an extremely huge potential when it came to tempering his physique to the limit. However, he hadn't noticed this potential before. He even mistakenly thought that he had already tempered his physique to the limit. Now, through the terrifying grinding force of the Yin Yang Millstone, this potential was slowly being unearthed!
As a result, he was able to break through his limits again and again and go deeper into the Yin Yang Millstone.
Lu Ye slowly understood all of this. He naturally wanted to know where his limits were.
As time passed, he gradually sensed that the strengthening of his physique was slowing down, and the breaking of his limits was also becoming more and more stable.
Although it was a pity, he knew that a person's limits couldn't be endless. There would always be a true end.
Right now, he was about to reach the true end.
Of course, this was only the end of the Constellation Realm. When he reached the Yue Yao Realm or the Sunshine Realm, the limits of his physique would be greatly improved.
He was very satisfied. If he hadn't come here, he would have already reached the Yue Yao Realm in the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea. Although he was still powerful, his potential as a Constellation Realm cultivator hadn't been fully stimulated. This would ultimately affect his future growth.
Until a certain moment, when Lu Ye felt that his potential was about to reach its true limit, a buzzing sound came from his body, as if something had been broken …
An indescribable feeling of comfort spread from inside to outside, causing Lu Ye to feel as if his entire body and mind had been elevated.
The Qi and blood in his body surged like lava, rumbling like thunder. The space between his eyebrows suddenly became extremely hot, and all his Qi and blood rapidly flowed toward that location.
Lu Ye couldn't help but frown, not knowing what was going on.
However, when he calmed his mind and sensed his body, he didn't find anything abnormal.
As his Qi and blood flowed, the space between his eyebrows became hotter and hotter. Just as Lu Ye was about to reach his limit, the burning sensation suddenly disappeared and was replaced by boundless comfort.
Lu Ye was stunned for a moment. He clenched his fists lightly, feeling as if his entire body was filled with an extremely violent power.
If he could kill a late-stage Constellation Realm cultivator with a single saber strike before this, then he could destroy them with a single punch now.
After tempering his physique to its true limit, the boost to his physical strength was simply terrifying.
With this kind of strength, coupled with his saber techniques, Lu Ye felt that he could even defeat Yue Yao!
In the past, he definitely wouldn't have been able to do so. Over the years, he had fought with several Yue Yaos. Most of the time, he had been assisted by Li Shang's soul. Even in its soul state, he could only put up a fight against Yue Yao who had just broken through.
However, even without Li Shang's help, Lu Ye was confident that he could kill Yue Yao who had just broken through, just like You Ling …
Moreover … he felt as if there was something extra between his eyebrows.
He hurriedly rummaged through his storage ring and took out a mirror-like Spirit Treasure. He looked at himself.
However, he found nothing.
Lu Ye was a little suspicious. The burning sensation between his eyebrows just now was clearly not an illusion. Moreover, he also felt as if there was something extra between his eyebrows, but why couldn't he see it?
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye fiercely activated his Qi and blood power. As his Qi and blood power surged, when it reached a limit, the scene in his field of vision finally changed.
There was indeed something between his eyebrows. It was just that it didn't show up normally. Only when he activated his Qi and blood power to the limit would that thing appear.
Upon closer inspection, that thing looked like a star-shaped mark, embellished in the center between his eyebrows. It was blood-red in color, bright and glistening.
'What's this?'
Lu Ye didn't understand. He had never heard of anyone else possessing something like this at the peak of the Constellation Realm. However, he could feel that this thing wouldn't do him any harm. As for benefits … it didn't seem to have any. It wouldn't appear normally. Only when he activated his Qi and blood power to the limit would it appear. In other words, it would only appear when he was putting his life on the line.
'Looks like I'll have to ask the Reincarnation Tree the next time I see it.'
Even though he couldn't figure out what was so special about this star-shaped mark, he was certain that he had completed his mission at the Yin Yang Great Millstone.
This was probably why the Reincarnation Tree had directed him to this place.
It was time to advance Yue Yao's cultivation.
If it were any other cultivator, it would naturally be best if they had the help of a corresponding treasure when advancing Yue Yao's cultivation. This was because that would increase their chances of success. It would be even better if they could advance in a special environment like the Constellation Hall.
Lu Ye had also planned to advance in the Constellation Hall before.
However, ever since he discovered some of its secrets, he knew that there was no need for him to do so. This was because whether it was advancing in the Constellation Hall or using a corresponding treasure, it was all for the sake of purifying his own Spiritual Power.
Ever since Lu Ye started cultivating, his Spiritual Power had been pure and flawless. Naturally, there was no need for him to rely on any external help.
And all of this was thanks to the Talent Tree. The Talent Tree's incinerating power allowed him to consume Spiritual Pills or refine other types of energy without any impurities.
As for the other cultivators, it was a different story. Needless to say, all spirit pills contained pill toxins. Even the so-called top-grade spirit pills outside also existed. It was just that the pill toxins in the top-grade spirit pills were very weak.
Refining Spiritual Jades would also refine some impurities that were almost undetectable into one's body. There was no need to worry about them for a short period of time. However, once too many impurities accumulated, they would become a huge obstacle to a cultivator's cultivation.
