Lightly Reaping the Spoils, Breaking Through Divine Connection!

Inside the Yun family's treasure vault.

Ye Li casually retrieved the souls of the Yun family's remnants back into his Divine Ability space.

It's worth mentioning.

While purging the Yun family members, these spirits also took several of his Treasured Artifacts with them.

His palm brushed across the Storage Treasure Tool.

A large, dark blue bow appeared in his hand. He drew the bow slightly, and fine frost flowers climbed up his palm along the silver bowstring, sinking into his mind. Ye Li could clearly feel the surging, icy coldness within.

Mystic Phoenix Ice Soul Bow, a Superior Grade Treasured Artifacts in the Divine Connection Realm.

According to Yun Suyi's Memory Scroll, this is already one of the highest-grade Treasured Artifacts in the Yun family.

If it weren't for the fact that the Cultivation Method and physique of her eldest daughter Yun Shuangyue, were extremely compatible, she wouldn't have handed this bow to her to use in shooting Ye Li in the banquet hall.

Unfortunately, even with his peak cultivation at the Heaven and Earth Realm, he was ultimately unable to unleash the full potential of this bow.

This was a pleasant surprise...

Ye Li subtly nodded his chin and put away the Divine Connection Realm Great Bow.

He initially rose to prominence using ice-based Cultivation Method.

Now that his cultivation level has reached the Divine Connection Realm, his control over the cold energy has naturally become increasingly effortless.

The lack of remote output capabilities conveniently fills this gap.

He then took out the arrow forged from the [Tengshe Reverse Scale].

Under normal circumstances, compared to the divine bow of the Divine Connection Realm, the Inverse Scale Arrow poses a greater threat to True Person of the Divine Connection Realm.

The arrow was wrapped in scale-like Cold Glint, and its entire body had a metallic texture. The arrowhead constantly emitted a ghostly light that could devour flesh and blood. When combined with the Yun family's Mystic Phoenix Ice Soul Bow, it could easily pierce through the Dharma Body of an ordinary Divine Connection Realm.

"Tengshe..."

Ye Li brushed his fingertips across it, and the arrow suddenly trembled, its purple patterns twisting and rising as if alive.

A phantom image then appeared in his mind—

A serpentine body, thousands of feet long, coiled in the abyss, with a single horn on its forehead, and eerie vertical pupils that seemed to hold the image of a fading starry river.

The aura it exuded was exceptionally cold; even just a phantom of it was enough to instill fear in a newly initiated True Person at the Divine Connection Realm.

This must be the so-called [True Lord Tengshe].

Creators in the Creation Realm, whether Human Race or Great Demon, are all given the title of "True Lord" by the outside world.

Hold the arrow in your palm.

With his astonishing perception, Ye Li could even sense a chilling aura faintly pointing beyond the Eastern Continent.

"This 'reverse scale' even has a tracking function."

Ye Li was slightly surprised. If he had enough time, he was quite confident that he could follow this aura to find the approximate location of the person in question.

However, it's likely that True Lord Tengshe was just taking precautions.

The connection is quite weak, and it will be difficult to pinpoint its exact location using this [Inverse Scale Arrow].

And this connection is two-way.

Ye Li could sense that Tengshe was outside of the Eastern Continent, and Tengshe could most likely sense that he was inside the Eastern Continent as well.

"..."

Even so, Ye Li had no intention of abandoning or using it.

True Lord of the Creation Realm must be renowned; I'll inquire about them when the time comes.

If circumstances permit, once the [Five Continents War] ends, he can go directly there to test the strength of the Creation Realm.

There's no need to hide it.

Just then, the Divine Fire floating beside him completely dissipated, and several perfectly round, full pills of various colors were exposed to the air.

"Let's add some more first."

Ye Li shook his head slightly, put away the arrow in his hand, and switched to his own control panel.

[Current Malice Points: Points!]

With such a high amount of Malice Points, I should be able to make a breakthrough smoothly.

Having offended True Lord Great Demon of the Creation Realm, my fifth-level Divine Connection Realm cultivation is somewhat weakened. It's time for me to unleash my full potential.

Ye Li swallowed the pill refined by the Divine Fire.

A relevant prompt immediately appeared on the pale blue light screen.

[Detected that you have ingested four Divine Connection Realm Treasure Medicine, including Immortal Haze Powder and Holy Spirit Sea Transformation Pill... This has greatly enhanced your comprehension of the Laws of heaven and earth, and significantly increased the speed at which your true qi circulates through your meridians...]

[Gained a buff: Cultivation Speed Boost by 120%!]

[Gain a buff: Reduces the cost of Malice Points required for breakthrough to the Divine Connection Realm by 25%!]

His own Return to Truth Method, which allowed him to break through to the Divine Connection Realm, was of the Spiritual Grade level.

All the Cultivation Method so far have reached perfection before the breakthroughs were made.

Therefore, Ye Li has always been a peerless martial artist, both in terms of the size of his Qi Sea and the strength of his foundation.

No one could max out their Cultivation Method as recklessly as him.

With his Peak Fifth Tier of the Divine Connection Realm cultivation, plus the blessing of [Golden Soul Revival], he was able to achieve this.

Ye Li's physical strength had already surpassed the peak of the Divine Connection Realm, approaching the level of the Half-Step Creation Realm.

If this breakthrough goes smoothly...

It's not entirely impossible that he could even contend with a Martial Dao True Lord who has just entered the Creation Realm, or even gain a slight advantage in close combat.

Thinking of this, Ye Li began to digest the intense medicinal power within his body and channeled his Malice Points into his panel.

[Bite!]

[Starting to consume Malice Points, continuously increasing Martial Arts Level!]

A True Person in the Divine Realm possesses a vast Qi Sea. If their True Qi is completely depleted, it would take at least several decades to replenish it.

Yesterday, the local officials and the Master of Purple Cloud Cave were cleared out.

Today, we slayed the Matriarch of the Yun family and the incarnation of the Teng Snake.

Even with Ye Li's profound foundation of true energy, his Qi Sea has already consumed more than 80% of its true energy.

If it were someone else, they would need to conserve their energy and prepare for any unforeseen events that might occur.

But he doesn't need this step--

At this moment, the aura on his body, which had become somewhat weak due to the two days of battle, was beginning to be pushed to its peak!

Watching the Malice Points on the panel rapidly deplete.

A sense of anticipation arose in Ye Li's heart. Just how much of a boost could these five million points of Malice Points provide?

[After consuming points of Malice Points, your control over the Power of Law deepens, and your Dharma Body gradually approaches perfection in the process!]

[You have advanced to the peak of the seventh level of the Divine Connection Realm!]

As this line of text appeared.

His heartbeat quickened slightly, and a radiant light seemed to emanate from his fair skin. His already surging blood energy surged once more!

In an instant, it surpassed its previous peak.

Strange phenomena have been frequently occurring in the Boundary Heaven.

Above the Yun family mansion, thunderclouds surged like ink, freezing the rain into icicles before it could fall, only to be crushed into dust by an invisible pressure in the next instant!

"Call--"

Ye Li exhaled lightly, and the ripples of true energy that rose around him swept out like a raging dragon!

Suddenly, an immense pressure enveloped the entire area, and the surging true energy caused the clouds to churn and boil!

This aura seems to have no peak; it is still rising continuously!
