#1578 - Explore the Endless Void

"Based on the current special secret method of raising ghost iron and the changes it can bring to the spirit iron, this should be possible. All that's left is time to accumulate."

Ling Pengyun was extremely satisfied, and then he instructed the Ghost Fairy Lamp not to delay nourishing its foundation with ghost energy while condensing the Ghost Fairy Light.

"My dear friend Pengyun, I will definitely remember your kindness in nourishing the ghost iron."

"In the future, if I can condense the light of the ghost fairy, I will hand over 70% of it to the nobles."

The Ghost Fairy Lamp was extremely grateful, and because the Ling family already had two examples of cultivating the fifth-grade intermediate spiritual treasure, the Five Elements Treasures River, and the fifth-grade intermediate ghost treasure, the Ghost Fairy Flying Sword, if the Ling family was really willing to help, it would have a good chance of being promoted to the fifth-grade intermediate.

However, this is an extraordinary temptation for a ghost treasure like this that has been stuck at the lower fifth grade for tens of thousands of years. It can not only make up for its origin, but also help it to pass through the passage of time more smoothly and live longer.

Moreover, it is an extraordinary improvement to its strength. Who knows, in the future, it may be able to destroy the Jihan Immortal Palace and avenge the sect by relying on its own strength.

"This light of the ghost fairy is extremely important to me, so I won't be polite."

"However, Senior Ghost Immortal, don't worry. Our clan will definitely attach great importance to supporting you to enter the fifth-level middle grade. Every hundred years, our clan will at least put a piece of fifth-level ghost iron weighing about a pound into the fifth-level ghost vein to nourish it. After thousands of years, you may have hope of promotion."

Ling Pengyun said with a smile.

As this event came to an end, the Ling family now had two fifth-grade mid-level spiritual treasures. One was Ling Pengyun's Black Dragon Armor, and the other was the Ghost Fairy Lamp.

…

Some time passed.

Deep underground in the Lingxiao Secret Realm, where the extremely secret core of the earth is located, there is a small cave.

The laws of heaven and earth and the spiritual energy within it are particularly rich. It is not only a top-notch place for cultivation, but also the key to the earth's core being able to condense treasures every once in a while.

For this reason, the Ling family prohibited ordinary cultivators from absorbing the laws of heaven and earth at will, so as to avoid reducing the number of treasures bred in the earth's core.

Only in some special times, when one needs to comprehend the Tao and break through the bottleneck by understanding the laws of heaven and earth, can one come here to meditate.

But strangely enough, there has always been a female cultivator sitting cross-legged here.

But she had always ignored the laws of heaven and earth and the rich spiritual energy around her, and instead focused all her mind on the core of the protective formation set up in the Lingxiao Secret Realm.

From time to time, he would unleash an extremely powerful formation technique to amplify the power of the domain protection formation, which could indirectly speed up the speed at which the earth's core gathered the laws of heaven and earth and condensed treasures.

'I have finally comprehended this powerful domain protection formation. As long as I am given time and sufficient resources, I will have the opportunity to set up such a powerful formation.'

After an unknown amount of time, Ling Penglin, the strongest formation master in the family, slowly opened his eyes, with excitement on his face.

The protective formation of the Lingxiao Secret Realm was obtained from a major force in the Ziyuan Realm. Although its grade is still at the lower fifth level, its power far exceeds that of the formations of the same level. It can be regarded as a superior one. As long as there is enough spiritual energy to help, it can even hold off a mid-stage Spirit Transformation Realm powerhouse alone for a period of time.

It is also the strongest formation in the family today. Even Ling Penglin, who has been practicing the fifth-level lower-grade formation for many years, has not been able to set up such a powerful formation.

Ling Penglin was particularly curious about this formation. In the past hundred years, he often came here to comprehend the core of the protective formation, wanting to understand it thoroughly.

Fortunately, after the family, together with major forces such as the Xinghai Pavilion, destroyed the power that owned the domain protection formation, they also obtained the method of that force to set up the domain protection formation and various information about the formation through special means.

Ling Penglin was not a headless fly. She gradually made some discoveries and finally gained enlightenment. Even her attainments in formations improved a little, reaching the peak of the middle level among formation masters of the same level.

Although the probability of arranging a powerful formation like the Lingxiao Protective Array with such attainments is relatively low, perhaps only 10% or 20%, but having such attainments is considered a skill.

'With my current level, I am not able to perfect this formation for the time being. In this case, it is meaningless to continue to stay here to comprehend the formation. Besides, it is also easier for me to bless the domain protection formation to increase the earth's core and breed spiritual creatures. I can do it once every ten years.'

'In this way, we can go to various spiritual places of the family, and with the harvest from this time's understanding of the domain protection formation, arrange or recast a stronger formation for practice, and wait for the opportunity to perfect the domain protection formation here, increase its power, strengthen the safety of the family's secret realm, and speed up the speed of the earth's core breeding treasures.'

Ling Penglin made some plans, then slowly stood up and walked towards the various sacred places of the family.

And every time she left, the formations on the spiritual land would become at least one level stronger, or would simply change drastically.

Moreover, during this period, she did not consume any formation resources, but only brought the effectiveness of the spiritual objects used to set up those formations to perfection.

Many family cultivators who followed her to practice formations benefited greatly from this.

The family formation also became more powerful because of her existence.

And her attainments in formations also increased day by day. Even after several decades, her attainments in formations broke through a small bottleneck and reached a superior level in the same class, surpassing the attainments in formations of Ancestor Xinghai and being able to compete with Great Elder Xingqing.

However, she still has some distance to reach Great Elder Xingqing. It is said that as early as a hundred years ago, Great Elder Xingqing, a person with extraordinary attainments in formations, had already cultivated his attainments in formations to the highest peak, and it is possible that he has reached the top level now.

Moreover, it is only six or seven hundred years away for Great Elder Xing Qing to reach the Divine Transformation stage and his attainments in formations to reach the fifth level.

To be able to make such progress in such a short period of time was truly extraordinary. People within Xinghai Pavilion and the Ling family secretly speculated that perhaps Great Elder Xingqing would be able to advance into the realm of a fifth-level mid-grade formation one day.

At this moment, as Ling Penglin's attainments in formations improved, she once again returned to the core of her family's secret realm to meditate, wanting to perfect the protective formation.

As time went by, this matter actually became a success. The power of the formation and the speed at which the earth's core nurtured spiritual creatures increased by 10% to 20%.

…

Some time passed.

Lingxiao Secret Realm, the fifth-level spiritual land Lingxiao Valley.

In a quiet room for cultivation, a huge spatial fluctuation suddenly erupted, and even the laws of space between heaven and earth were activated. The surrounding void was shattered one after another, but quickly healed itself, which was particularly mysterious.

All the cultivators in the entire Lingxiao Valley were attracted and looked over.

"Space Dao intention?"

"Could it be that my husband is planning to break through that bottleneck?"

As Ling Pengyun's wife, Yan Siyi was well aware of Ling Pengyun's progress in cultivation in all aspects. Her eyes flickered with anticipation as she made secret guesses.

Some other senior executives also guessed something.

However, this matter was extremely crucial and even had extraordinary benefits for them, so they held their breath and focused their attention on the cave where the unusual movement was coming from.

As time passed, the quiet room gradually returned to peace.

The door of the cave also opened, and Ling Pengyun walked out with a happy face.

"Husband, are you done?"

Yan Siyi led everyone to greet them and asked curiously.

“It was a lucky success.”

Ling Pengyun was extremely happy.

The previous unusual movements were caused by his breakthrough into the Great Accomplishment State of Void Dao.

After hundreds of years, he had already comprehended the Tao to a small degree of success, but before that, he had been stuck at a bottleneck and had been unable to make any further progress.

However, during the previous chaos among evil spirits in the Cang Xuan Realm, he gained some insights from the fierce battle with the Xutian Demon Flame Tiger King, who had extraordinary achievements in the Tao of the Void.

After that, he went into seclusion for more than ten years and finally succeeded. His attainments in the methods of the void also became stronger.

Moreover, he also helped it to comprehend the Tao of the Void to a small degree with the powerful space treasure, the Void Treasure Realm, in its hand.

In this way, with the help of the treasure, even if he encounters an extraordinary strong man like Xinghai Patriarch, he has more than 70% chance of escaping directly.

This breakthrough also gave him an excellent way to save his life.

But the magic of this method does not stop there.

To this end, after a brief chat with Yan Siyi and others, he gathered all the Nascent Souls of Yan Siyi and other families together to discuss.

"Although the family is developing well now, with the treasures obtained by the family from destroying the major forces in the Cangxuan Realm and the Ziyuan Realm, the rapid development of the family has gradually slowed down. Even my progress on the path has become particularly slow. If I give up and do nothing, I am afraid that I will most likely stay in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm for the rest of my life."

"And you all... are the same."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"So, I plan to expand outward, but not to attack those incarnation forces in Cangxuan Realm, nor to attack the Tianhe Realm that we heard about when we were dealing with Ziyuan Realm in the early years."

"Instead, we need to explore the endless river of void, search for various small worlds or relatively large secret realms, and seek development. We don't need to destroy those small worlds or secret realms directly, but we need to control the resources within them!"

"However, I need to stay in the family and cannot leave at will. This matter can only be handed over to you. I plan to select a God Transformation, plus some Nascent Souls, and bring a quasi-fifth-level formation, and use the Void Treasure Realm to explore."

"As this treasure realm comprehends the Dao of the Void to a minor degree, its power also increases greatly. With its help, it is extremely easy to cross the endless river of the void. Moreover, this treasure is particularly sensitive to the spatial laws of small worlds or secret realms in various places, and the probability of searching for such places will also be greater."

"In addition, for those who are willing to go, even if they are not in the family, the family will give you three times the usual salary. And if you are able to occupy the secret realm or small world you find, only 30% of the profits will belong to the family."

"If you need the family's help, you can also have 30% of the profits, and the remaining 70% will belong to the family. I wonder if anyone among you is willing to go?"

Ling Pengyun took out the Void Treasure Realm and turned to speak to everyone.

"I'll go."

"It just so happens that the flying sword of my natal ghost fairy that I helped to improve has reached the fifth-level intermediate level some time ago. It is now the time to hone my sword skills in actual combat."

"However, Senior Ghost Immortal needs to stay in the Ghost Cultivation Mountain Range and use the rich ghost energy there to breed the light of Ghost Immortal and cultivate spirit ghosts."

Ling Pengxing said without any hesitation.

"Can."

Ling Pengyun thought about it carefully and nodded.

Ling Pengxing's swordsmanship is extraordinary, and with the help of a fifth-level mid-grade Ghost Fairy Flying Sword, he can fight even a mid-stage Spiritualization warrior. His strength is slightly higher than that of an ordinary top-level Spiritualization early-stage warrior.

Afterwards, Ling Pengyun took out some fifth-level talismans drawn by the fifth-level talisman practitioner Ling Lihao from the clan treasury and gave them to his guardian and the ten Nascent Souls who followed Ling Pengxing.

However, the identities of these Nascent Souls are somewhat special. Even Ling Pengyun’s three descendants, Ling Chengxia, Ling Chengxin, Ling Chengmie, and even Ling Qingmeng are among them.

The four of them are all potential gods in the family, and they are the only four potential gods in the world today.

Some Yuanying of the family were a little worried about this. If something unexpected happened to them, it would be difficult for the younger generation of the family to produce a God Transformation again.

"I know my limits on this matter."

"It is true that Cheng Xia and the others are potential gods, but they are still a little behind those of us who have reached the early stage of gods."

"Even among them, only Cheng Xia can barely make it to the stage. The others lack real fighting skills and it is difficult for them to become big shots."

"Besides, how could it be so easy to explore other places in the endless river of void?"

"This must be extremely boring, and it can also temper their character in a different way."

“In addition, the Void Treasure Realm is my spiritual treasure after all, and during my recent years of seclusion, I have just comprehended a special method. As long as I move my mind, I can completely use the spatial power contained in the Void Treasure Realm to construct a void projection. The strength is one-tenth of my full victory. Ordinary gods can’t stop it at all.”

Ling Pengyun explained to everyone with a smile.

When everyone heard this, their worries disappeared.

…

Not long after.

In Lingxiao Valley, inside a cave.

"Cheng Xia, Cheng Xin, Cheng Mie, you must be careful on this trip."

"Take these fifth-level talismans. If you encounter danger, remember to use them immediately."

Yan Siyi said to Ling Chengxia's three descendants with concern, and took out more than ten fifth-level talismans and handed them to Ling Chengxia and others.

Those talismans are her entire collection of talismans. Once all of them are used up, even a person in the middle stage of Spirit Transformation will have a headache.

However, she could have so many fifth-level talismans thanks to Ling Lihao, the fifth-level talisman master.

"mother……"

Ling Chengxia and others felt jealous when they saw Yan Siyi's actions.

"Take it."

Ling Pengyun said from the side.

Seeing this, Ling Chengxia and others nodded, and then put them all away.

Afterwards, the family had a brief chat, and Ling Chen followed Ling Pengxing to break through the void and disappeared into the Lingxiao Secret Realm.

"Husband, do you think Cheng Xia and the others will be able to have a smooth trip?"

Yan Siyi said worriedly.

"I don't know, but this is an opportunity to strengthen the family's foundation."

"It is also an opportunity for them to pursue their path. Whether they can seize it depends on themselves."

Ling Pengyun said with his eyes flashing meaningfully.
