Mystic Purity Sect, Elegant Bamboo Peak.
Duanmu Yunshang has just finished a period of secluded cultivation!
She used up all the divine items Lin Heng gave her, including the Fire Spirit Divine Fruit, Fire Dragon Crystal, Bodhi Pill, and Earth Fire Sunflower!
The Phoenix Blood Fruit she had consumed earlier, which was 100,000 years old, not only greatly increased her strength but also allowed her to quickly digest various divine treasures!
This time, her Divine Body, Divine Power, and Divine Soul have all made great progress!
It all felt like a dream!
"My current strength should be about the same as his, right?"
Duanmu Yunshang could only speculate inwardly, then gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Almost all of his cultivation was thanks to others. No matter how you calculate it, the Little Prince of Chishui couldn't possibly be only slightly stronger than him!
After she left the country, she inquired and learned that the Little Prince of Chishui had not visited since his last trip!
Could that guy have already gone to the God Realm?
A pang of reluctance stirred in Duanmu Yunshang's heart!
She had long sensed that the Little Prince of Chishui didn't have very deep feelings for her!
She clearly remembered that when Yao Jian proposed a verbal marriage agreement in the Pill Tower of the Pill Pavilion, Lin Heng did not readily agree and was even quite hesitant!
In the end, Lin Heng never said he agreed to the marriage; he only reluctantly said "I like you" twice when she pressed him for an answer.
Since then, Lin Heng has been helping her, but that's all he's done!
Lin Heng never took the initiative to get close to her, and was always lukewarm towards her!
I feel like I'm a younger sister that Lin Heng is obligated to take extra care of!
"Have I not done enough for him?"
Duanmu Yunshang thought with distress, "But what can I do for him? He doesn't seem to need anyone to do anything for him at all!"
Just as her thoughts were churning, her great-grandfather, Duanmu Lan, arrived!
"No need for such formalities!"
Duanmu Lan waved her hand to stop Duanmu Yunshang from bowing, "Seeing how sullen you look, I can guess what you're thinking!"
Duanmu Yunshang remained silent.
His thoughts were probably obvious to everyone in the Mystic Purity Sect.
"Come with me, I'll take you somewhere!"
After Duanmu Lan finished speaking, he immediately leaped and flew eastward!
Duanmu Yunshang followed!
Not long after, Duanmu Lan fell from mid-air and landed in front of a stone door.
Duanmu Yunshang knew that this was a forbidden area of the Mystic Purity Sect, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will!
There were Quasi-God level experts from the Mystic Purity Sect guarding the area, but seeing that it was the sect's Supreme Elder and the Heaven-Burning Battle Physique coming, the Quasi-God experts naturally wouldn't come over to stop them!
Duanmu Lan used his Divine Power to open the stone door.
He led Duanmu Yunshang through the stone gate and into a deep, long cave!
The cave is winding and twisting!
Duanmu Yunshang followed her great-grandfather, walking forward at a leisurely pace!
After walking for about half an hour, Duanmu Lan finally stopped!
We've reached the end of the cave!
Another heavy-looking stone door blocked our way!
Duanmu Lan once again used his Divine Power power to open the stone door!
The moment the stone gate opened, an extremely powerful wave swept out!
Duanmu Lan was prepared, so she remained calm, but Duanmu Yunshang was caught off guard and was pushed back two steps by the shockwave!
Beyond the stone gate lies a huge cave!
Mist billowed from the cave!
Duanmu Yunshang could sense an extremely powerful soul force surging within the cave!
The mist was actually almost liquefied Spiritual Qi!
" Yunshang, there's a small pool in the center of the cave; it contains Earth Marrow Milk!"
Duanmu Lan said, "The soul power surging in the cave is a dragon soul, the soul left behind by a divine dragon that has been gone for countless years!"
"Legend has it that the divine dragon came from the God Realm and possessed cultivation levels above the True God Realm!"
"This cave must be where the dragon's head was after it died!"
"Perhaps the dragon, knowing it was doomed, deliberately separated its soul from its body and hid it here, nourishing it with the Earth Marrow Milk, but unfortunately, it failed to be reborn!"
"When our Mystic Purity Sect's founding patriarch discovered this place, he also found a 100,000-year-old Earth Marrow Dragon Soul Vine, after which his strength skyrocketed!"
"In short, this is a great place!"
"If you can cultivate in seclusion here for a period of time, using the Earth Marrow Milk to enhance your power and the Dragon Soul to elevate your soul realm, your cultivation will also increase significantly!"
"But it's also dangerous here!"
"The dragon soul here has lost its self-awareness, but it contains the will and power of the divine dragon from the God Realm. It will pose a great threat to cultivators who stay here for a long time!"
"I tried to cultivate here, but I had to give up after less than an hour!"
"If you really want to follow in the footsteps of the Little Prince of Chishui and are not afraid of danger, you can go in and give it a try!"
After hearing her great-grandfather's words, Duanmu Yunshang first bowed to him, then stepped directly into the cave!
Without the slightest hesitation!
Duanmu Lan sighed silently; the pressure the Little Prince of Chishui was putting on his great-granddaughter was just too much!
The dragon soul power surging from the cave made it impossible for Duanmu Lan to stay outside the door for long. He had no choice but to use magic to close the stone door and then stand guard outside!
This stone door is easy to open from the inside; it can be pushed open directly. Duanmu Lan doesn't need to worry about Duanmu Yunshang being trapped inside!
"Please, please don't let anything happen!"
Duanmu Lan prayed silently, for if Duanmu Yunshang were to meet with misfortune inside, his sins would be immense!
Time passed day by day!
Lin Heng has finally managed to fleece the Sea Race almost completely!
He left the vast ocean, traveled a long way, crossed the northern border of the Great Xia Empire, and entered the territory of the Great Wilderness Beastman Race!
The Great Wilderness is a plateau forest, with barren land and scarce resources!
This made the Beastman Race who originally lived here very weak, and they could only occasionally compete with the Snowman Race further north!
It is precisely because their territories are so barren and their living environment so harsh that the Beastman Race and Snowman Race have not been invaded by powerful races!
"Congratulations, host, on successfully checking in at the Beast God Hall of the Beastman Race! The system rewards you with one Moonlight Divine Stone!"
The Moonlight Divine Stone is a divine object of the same grade as the Supreme Divine Lightning Bead and the Heart of the Ocean!
The difference is that it can not only enhance one's skills, but also elevate one's spiritual realm!
Because it has always been worshipped by the Beastman Race, and countless generations of Beastman Race have paid homage to it, devoutly offering their soul power as sacrifices!
"Congratulations, host, on successfully checking in at the Aurora Valley of the Snowman Race! The system rewards you with a Divine Ice Snow Lotus!"
This Divine Ice Snow Lotus is 100,000 years old!
Divine Ice Snow Lotus, a snow lotus that grows on Divine Ice!
Divine Ice is already rare, and snow lotuses growing on Divine Ice are even rarer. For such a snow lotus to grow for 100,000 years is even more difficult!
Lin Heng was very happy; this trip was worthwhile!
Moonlight Divine Stone and the Divine Ice Snow Lotus can greatly increase Lin Heng's strength!
He decided to stay in the northern part of the Divine Firmament Continent for a while, trying to fleece the Beastman Race and Snowman Race as much as possible!
