After leaving Vast Sky City, Lu Ye took out the Ten-Part Map to compare it against his surroundings, then sped off in one direction. As for Qian Wudang's threat, he did not take it to heart.
It was just something said aloud—how could he possibly take it seriously?
Three months of cultivation had passed like a single day. During that time, he had continuously refined Explosive Fire Spirit Stones and Shared Breath, Connected Branches Formation Plates. The days had been far too dry and dull.
He could not compare to those long-renowned old Divine Sea Realm cultivators, who could settle their minds and sit motionless in one place like withered stones. At the end of the day, he was only a young man in his early twenties. Young people had the vigor of youth. If he truly lived with the decrepitude of those old Divine Sea Realm cultivators, then he would no longer be young.
It was not as though he had to do anything in particular. Even simply coming out for a stroll, changing his surroundings, could lift his spirits.
Advancement in the Divine Sea Realm was not reflected solely in one's reserves of Spiritual Power. More importantly, it lay in the expansion of one's Divine Sea—a comprehensive form of growth. Every increase in tier brought a considerable boost to a cultivator's strength.
Compared to when he had been at Tier One of the Divine Sea Realm, the growth of his Spiritual Power reserves went without saying. The consumption of so many Golden Spirit Signs had not been for nothing. His Divine Sea was visibly larger than before, which meant his Divine Sense had also grown stronger.
As Lu Ye flew onward, he looked down at the land below.
It was a scene of utter devastation.
