Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Suddenly, at that moment, she heard a shout by her ear, "Stop!"

Suddenly,

the six tunneling lights halted at the sound, and everyone turned to look at Zhao Sheng, who had spoken.

Zhao Sheng, wearing a look of surprise, transmitted his message, "Have you noticed? Since a short while ago, the concentration of Spiritual Energy has significantly increased?"

"Hmph, Sheng Long, will you ever stop? Hasn't the concentration of Spiritual Energy been rising continuously for the past three years?" River Lord retorted irritably after hearing this.

The fruitless pursuit over so many years had already drained much of everyone's energy, filling their hearts with frustration, just waiting for an opportunity to vent.

River Lord took this moment to vent his anger as well.

"No, this increase is too abnormal. The concentration of Spiritual Energy here now matches that of the core of a Third-rank Spirit Vein, but just a moment ago, it was barely equivalent to a Third-rank Spirit Vein," Zhao Sheng immediately countered.

Reminded by him, everyone suddenly realized, and Fox Fairy, overwhelmed with joy, hastily said, "Does this mean we are close to the Seven Star Spirit Realm?"

"Very likely! Hehe, we finally see dawn approaching," Qingmu Monster chuckled with a strange laugh, his deeply wrinkled face even blushing slightly.

Seeing this, Blood-eyed Elder immediately cast several spells on the Seven Star Ruyi, and the glow of the Ruyi intensified, with the star lines at its end becoming exceptionally bright and thick.

"Haha! We can finally see the True Face of the Seven Star Spirit Realm!"

Upon seeing this, Blood Eyes laughed heartily and, with a flicker of his figure, transformed into a bolt of blood-red lightning and dashed downward.

Zhao Sheng and the others also transformed into light and pursued him.

Two days later, the group had traveled about eight thousand li and finally reached a grand and bizarre place.

Beneath them, within the densely packed Meteorite Sea, there lay an "empty" area nearly one hundred thousand li in size.

In the center of the empty area, seven "stars" sparkled brilliantly in the dark void, strikingly enveloped in a large swath of colorful nebula.

These seven big stars were divided into two big and five small ones; the two large stars were about two thousand li apart from each other, one bright and one dark, both roughly a thousand li in diameter, occupying the central void.

The five smaller stars, around one hundred li in size each, orbited around the two central big stars, moving slowly along an invisible curved line.

Upon seeing this strange and grand scene, Fox Fairy blurted out the next second, "Yin yang and the Five Elements! It's actually... actually a naturally formed Yin Yang Five Elements Great Array!"

"No, this place definitely wasn't formed by cosmic forces; it must have been crafted by some unimaginably powerful entity."

"Indeed! This must certainly be the Seven Star Spirit Realm. The predecessor with such immense power is indeed wor-thy of our admiration!"

"Haha, what are we waiting for? Let's go in! Blood Eyes, would you quickly open the Seven Star Spirit Realm?"

As everyone marveled and excited, an odd thought suddenly occurred to Zhao Sheng, "The concentration of Spiritual Energy here is approaching Fifth Rank. If any living being survives here, what terrifying level of strength must it possess!"

With this thought, Zhao Sheng once again fixed his gaze on those seven "stars."

The seven stars were covered with pits and depressions, large and small, desolate and silent, also lacking an atmosphere, similar to ordinary meteors.

However, the surfaces of these seven star meteors were completely covered in a thick layer of crystalline gravel.

Under the illumination of the colorful and brilliant light, these crystal-like gravel refracted dazzling and eerie lights.

"Everyone, please wait; let this old man cast a spell first." At this moment, Blood-eyed Elder spoke, drawing everyone's attention.

Zhao Sheng turned his gaze towards him, only to see him muttering under his breath, his right hand lightly tossing, and the Seven Star Ruyi suddenly flew up into the void, bursting with brilliance.

Blood Eyes continuously formed spells with his hands, casting countless trails of blood-colored Spirit Light into the Seven Star Ruyi.

Gradually, the seven Star Beads embedded in the Seven Star Ruyi were coated in a dense layer of blood light.

A moment later, Blood-eyed Elder fiercely spat a mouthful of Heart Blood onto the Seven Star Ruyi.

In an instant, a column of blood-red light explosively shot out from the head of the Ruyi, striking down onto that colorful nebula.

The colorful nebula, upon being stricken by the light column, instantly dissolved a section, revealing a nearly thousand-zhang wide void.

Without needing any reminder, the six people immediately transformed their tunneling lights and descended, passing through the void and entering the interior of the nebula in the blink of an eye.

Upon entering, Zhao Sheng was startled and immediately sensed that the void was filled with endless, pure Spiritual Energy, furiously rushing into his body, without him needing to actively absorb it.

The others also noticed this and all revealed expressions of surprise and enjoyment.

"Haha, this is amazing! Just the abundance of Spiritual Energy here makes the trip worthwhile. If I could cultivate here for a few hundred years, I suspect not even the Divinity Transformation Heaven Barrier could stop me."

"Could this place be the Treasure Land truly designed for us?! The Seven Star Spirit Realm is indeed as incredible as its reputation!"

"Blood Eyes, how does the concentration of Spiritual Energy in the core spiritual acupoint at the Bright Peak of the Mingye Sect headquarters compare to here?"

"Nowhere close to this!"

Zhao Sheng took a deep breath, feeling an unparalleled ease and comfort throughout his body, his Mana inside more active than ever before, and the Nascent Soul in his Purple Mansion seemed eager to burst through his forehead.

Just then, the Demon Tooth Mushroom Mother suddenly swooped down silently, darting like lightning towards the central Dark Star.

"Demon Teeth, wait!" the Blood-eyed Elder exclaimed as his expression changed and his Divine Thought surged to its maximum, suddenly shouting out.

But the Demon Tooth Mushroom Mother ignored him, continuing her rapid descent.

Before long, she had already landed on the surface of the Dark Star, and with a flash, she vanished into the ground, disappearing without a trace.

"Blood Eyes, should we chase after her?" River Earl Fu You asked, his face ashen.

The Blood-eyed Elder's expression fluctuated, he waved his hand sending a Spell Light into the Seven Star Ruyi, and then a beam of starlight shot out from the end of the Ruyi, penetrating directly into the Dark Star.

Seeing this, everyone had their speculations.

"Follow!"

Having said that, the Blood-eyed Elder plunged downward, transforming into a blood-red meteor that fell onto the Dark Star in a blink of an eye, disappearing just after a flash.

Simultaneously, four streams of light, some rolling with golden flame, some misted in pink, some lush green, and some a muted blue, closely followed the trail of blood light disappearing into the underground of the Dark Star.

As Zhao Sheng entered the underground, his heart suddenly surged, an immense sense of danger unforeseen emerged as if he'd fallen into some lethal trap.

However, the next instant, his premonition of danger abruptly dissolved, as if the previous moment was merely an illusion.

Zhao Sheng didn't believe it was an illusion, "This place might truly contain some deadly dangers.

He secretly warned himself, his spirit extremely vigilant, instantly releasing three Bright Sun Mirrors which circled around him.

As the Magical Treasures moved, they shot out bursts of golden flames, forming layers of True Fire Shields, securely protecting Zhao Sheng.

Simultaneously, Zhao Sheng's fingers flicked repeatedly, deploying a series of Third-rank Treasure Talismans around him, ready to be activated at a moment's thought.

Fox Fairy, Blood Eyes, and others also perceived the abnormality, and quickly added various defenses to themselves.

But… none of them stopped to consider turning back, instead continuing to dive towards the core.

Because the deeper they went, the concentration of Spiritual Energy strangely increased again, and the layers of soil and gravel began showing pieces of agate-like alien crystals, each emanating a wave of Spiritual Energy not inferior to a Mid-grade Spirit Stone.

Fifty li,

One hundred li,

When they passed three hundred li, any agate crystals within their Divine Thought's reach were no smaller than the size of a human head, and the soil layers here gradually began to crystallize, with large crystals visible everywhere.

Besides, the concentration of Spiritual Energy here faintly exceeded Zhao Sheng's imagination, such that even if he flipped through ancient books, he had never seen a place with a richer concentration of Spiritual Energy.

The legendary Taiyi Spirit Realm could probably only match this.

Ahem!

Suddenly, Zhao Sheng "saw" Qingmu Monster ahead trembling, a coughing motion appearing at his mouth.

Focused Zhao Sheng immediately transmitted a message: "Qingmu, are you alright?"

"This old man is just fine!"

"Good to know, we should see the outcome soon. Please be very careful, Daoist!"

Although Zhao Sheng said this, he slowed down, intentionally creating distance between himself and the Qingmu Monster.

Interestingly, the other three made the same movement.

In the depths of this unknown realm, any sign of oddity required utmost caution and vigilance, especially since his companions were all hardened veterans of many battles.

Soon, they had descended over four hundred li, where most of the soil and stones had transformed into faintly glowing crystals, the waves of Spiritual Energy within the crystals nearing the level of top-grade spiritual stones.
