With a flash, the two of them appeared in the Dan River Anointment Array field. At the same time, Ye Xuan also summoned the Tongbei Ape Monkey and the One-Horned Bull Python.
"Thank you, my lord, for your grace!!"
The Tongbei Ape Monkey and the One-Horned Bull Python felt the surging, dense Dan River, and couldn't help but swallow. This was a heaven-defying opportunity! Who knew how far they would advance after cultivating in the Dan River waterfall this time.
Damn, didn't they see the realms of the lord's disciples soaring just now?
They were also... extremely anticipating their own future encounters.
"Begin!"
Ye Xuan glanced at the rich Dan River Anointment, and coupled with the concentration of energy within the Exquisite Pagoda, this was just the beginning.
Boom!!
As the sound fell, a terrifying devouring force surged around Ye Xuan, drawing the Dan River waterfall around him into his body. The momentum was so grand that it was at least dozens of times greater than that of Feng Chen and the others before.
"This is......."
"My lord, this move is amazing!!"
Little Black Dragon immediately transformed into a vortex, devouring the Dan River waterfall for cultivation. The Tongbei Ape Monkey and the One-Horned Bull Python exchanged a glance and dared not delay any longer.
Three days!
Five days! Ten days!!
Thus, another half a month passed within the pagoda. Ye Xuan's strength, after breaking through to the peak of the seventh-order Immortal Lord before cultivation, continued to rise.
Eighth-order Immortal Lord!
Peak eighth-order Immortal Lord! Ultimate peak eighth-order Immortal Lord!
Finally!
At a certain moment, Ye Xuan's body trembled again, and with a hum, his realm entered the ninth-order Immortal Lord. The reason for stopping was that the effect of the Dan River Anointment Array had weakened considerably.
It was clear that the effect would not be as good as this time the next time it was used.
However, even so, such an increase in realm, if it were to spread, would undoubtedly make countless people envious.
At this moment, Ye Xuan himself didn't know how strong he was, but he was certain that his combat power far surpassed the Immortal Lord realm, and it was not impossible to even contend with a Star realm first-heavenly expert above the Immortal Lord.
Of course, in the entire Ziwei Immortal Kingdom, there were probably at most a handful of experts at the Star realm.
Therefore!
In a certain sense, Ye Xuan's current strength could be considered invincible within the Ziwei Immortal Kingdom!
After all!
One must know that experts at the Star realm above the Immortal Lord have lived for an unknown number of years. Those people cherished their lives dearly and would not interfere unless their sect was in danger of annihilation.
"Hoo~"
Little Black Dragon also let out a deep sigh, then opened his brilliant eyes. At this moment, he had directly entered the Immortal Lord realm. "Tsk tsk, so this is the Immortal Lord realm? It's indeed powerful!"
Little Black Dragon licked his lips. Although he had just entered the Immortal Lord realm, even a second-order Immortal Lord would not be able to withstand a single move from him, as he was not to be trifled with, being an anomaly in the eyes of heaven and earth.
The Tongbei Ape Monkey and the One-Horned Bull Python also had their strength greatly increased. The One-Horned Bull Python entered the Immortal Elder realm, and even the Tongbei Ape Monkey was one step away from the Immortal Elder realm, reaching the ultimate peak of the ninth-order Immortal.
Seeing the great increase in strength of Little Black Dragon and the other two, Ye Xuan smiled slightly, then left the Exquisite Pagoda. He then led Feng Chen and the nine others back to the Youyuan Secret Realm. Undeniably, Ye Xuan had become the person who gained the most from exploring the Youyuan Secret Realm this time.
However, at the same time, outside the Youyuan Secret Realm.
Somewhere in the Youyuan Mountain Range.
Swish~
A figure appeared in the jungle. This person was none other than the disguised Emperor of Nanyue Immortal Kingdom, Dugu Qingcang.
Chichi~~
A series of breaking sounds followed from all around, instantly cutting off all of Dugu Qingcang's escape routes. Then, the person in the lead looked at Dugu Qingcang, who was in a black robe, with interest.
"Nanyue Emperor, it's rare to see you leave Nanyue Immortal City alone."
"However......."
As he said this, the old man's lips curved into a sinister smile. "This is a good burial ground."
"Mm."
Dugu Qingcang, with narrowed eyes, looked at his surroundings. "People from Heiyun Immortal Kingdom."
It was clear that Dugu Qingcang felt the aura of an old friend from them, and it was indeed Heiyun Immortal Kingdom. For hundreds of thousands of years, the two immortal kingdoms had accumulated countless grudges, both overt and covert.
Now, the reason he had left Nanyue Immortal City alone was to use himself as bait to heavily trap Heiyun Immortal Kingdom.
After all!
In the past century, Heiyun Immortal Kingdom had become increasingly arrogant. Did they really think that their Nanyue Immortal Kingdom was easy to bully?
He had hesitated at first, but after his father-in-law, Lin Cangqiong, arrived, they hit it off and immediately decided on this matter. As for Heiyun Immortal Kingdom's secret alliance with Xuanming Holy Land, he was naturally aware of it. Therefore, this time.......
Their target was not just Heiyun Immortal Kingdom, but also Xuanming Holy Land behind them.
Others might fear their eighth-rank Xuanming Holy Land, but their Nanyue Immortal Kingdom did not!
Of course, Xuanming Holy Land would not dare to easily wage war with Nanyue Immortal Kingdom. After all, in that case, they would not only be dealing with Nanyue Immortal Kingdom but also another opponent within their territory, the Nine Nether Holy Land. Even their Xuanming Holy Land would have a hard time dealing with both of them combined.
As for Heiyun Immortal Kingdom!
Although the two sides had a marriage alliance and had cooperated for many years, in the face of their respective interests, these relationships appeared incredibly fragile. In the end, neither would entrust their backs to the other.
In the final analysis, it was merely because the two sides had a common enemy.
Even!
It could be said that if Xuanming Holy Land were ever in mortal danger, Heiyun Immortal Kingdom might even take advantage of the situation. Imagine, how could he rashly go to war with Nanyue Immortal Kingdom?
Even if it were an eighth-rank force!!
"Heh heh, more than that~"
The fifth-order Immortal Lord ancestor of Heiyun Immortal Kingdom's lips curved into an evil smile. "Brother Wentian, don't you agree?"
Yuwen Ruohai, the fifth-order Immortal Lord ancestor of Heiyun Immortal Kingdom, curved his lips and spoke to a certain spot in the void.
"Heh heh, how could my Xuanming Holy Land be absent from killing the Nanyue Emperor!"
Swish~
As the voice fell, over a hundred more figures appeared in the field. The weakest among these over a hundred figures were eighth-order Immortal Elders, and there were no less than twenty Immortal Lord experts. It was evident that the lineup of both sides this time was aimed at absolutely killing Dugu Qingcang.
"However, this time, our target is not just you."
Qin Wentian glanced at Dugu Qingcang, then looked into the darkness. "Nine Nether Holy Lord, since you've come, then reveal yourself."
"Coincidentally, your father-in-law and son-in-law will both be buried here."
With that, Qin Wentian directly struck towards the darkness. With a bang, the next moment Lin Cangqiong appeared in the field with blood at the corner of his mouth. "Peak fourth-order Immortal Lord. Nine Nether Holy Lord, you truly underestimate me~"
However, he did not see the sarcastic smile on Lin Cangqiong's lips. With two fifth-order Immortal Lords, the big fish they were trying to catch this time was not small.
