Within the grotto-heaven, a strand of purple dawn light shone from the highest point in the sky.
It illuminated the entire grotto-heaven.
Ye Jingcheng and his spirit beasts descended from above and surveyed the grotto-heaven. Though he had expected this, he was still pleasantly surprised by what he saw.
In terms of territory, the grotto-heaven before him was now unquestionably as large as the former Yan Kingdom. Even Ye Jingcheng's divine sense, which had expanded severalfold, could not cover it all.
Spiritual light glittered throughout the central region, which held numerous spirit veins, while multicolored clouds of spiritual energy perpetually hung in the sky.
At this moment, wind came when called, and thunder answered at his bidding. Spirit lakes, spirit mountains, and spirit rivers were all clearly delineated, and the entire world was no different from the world outside.
Moreover, with the grotto-heaven's advancement, its entirety brimmed with boundless vitality, like the earth after snow.
"Master!" The young man formed by the Stone Spirit took solid form, his manner utterly respectful.
He knew that without Ye Jingcheng, even if fortune had granted him the opportunity to cultivate, he could never have reached his current heights.
Moreover, the fifth stage was merely a milestone for him. In the future, he still had a strong chance of reaching the sixth stage, or even the seventh stage and eighth stage.
"How is the grotto-heaven's concealment?" Ye Jingcheng asked.
Although he wanted to ask all the demon beasts and Wood Demons about their current circumstances, what he most wanted to learn was how well the Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven could conceal itself.
When the Stone Spirit had broken through to the fourth stage, he had gained the ability to hide briefly in the air. As long as he remained still, he was difficult to detect.
