The one roaring was naturally Tu Shan Xinshu. Beside him were three other Mahayana cultivators, as well as Chunhu Qingzhen, who had previously left the pavilion.
Seeing Tu Shan Xinshu's appearance, Chunhu Qingzhen said:
"Alright, what's done is done. Besides, that kid cultivates True Yang Qi, which is extremely compatible with Yue'er's Nine Yang Qi. You've seen the speed of their dual cultivation."
Tu Shan Xinshu remained silent.
Chunhu Qingzhen continued, "That old fellow Heiquan only has three thousand years of life left before he has to undergo the Third Tribulation. Whether he passes it or not, he will have to leave then."
"Without him, our Nine Yang Heavenly Fox Clan will definitely suffer a great loss in strength. Therefore, Yue'er must grow up quickly."
"I..." Tu Shan Xinshu raised his hand, but didn't know how to refute.
The old man who had been playing white chess saw the situation and smiled:
"I say, Xinshu, aren't you just upset about being thrown away by your son-in-law? What's so embarrassing about it?"
Speaking of this, Tu Shan Xinshu became even more annoyed, snorted coldly, and turned his back with a flick of his sleeve.
The old man continued to smile and said, "Besides, that kid is so strong. Whether it's for Yue'er or for our Heavenly Fox Clan, it's a good thing. You should be happy."
"I don't care about this matter anymore. You guys go talk to Yue'er yourselves."
Leaving these words, he left in a huff.
...
On the other side, Lu Xin came out of the Nine Yang Heavenly Fox Clan's treasure vault, not only obtaining the Bone-Rotting Soul-Devouring Flower, but also two additional poisonous spiritual herbs, one of the seventh rank and one of the eighth rank.
It was truly an unexpected surprise.
He wondered if these would be enough for him to break through to the late stage of Body Integration.
"Tell me, kid, what exactly do you want to do with collecting so many poisonous things?" You Su Heiquan really couldn't understand.
Lu Xin casually made up a story, "The Myriad Poisons Ancestor of the Divine Physician Sect in the Qionglin Domain is actually one of my incarnations. I plan to have him cultivate poison techniques."
Now that he was clear about his strength, there was no need to hide his true identity.
Moreover, he didn't think that the Nine Yang Heavenly Fox Clan would attack him or the people around him now.
"As expected, it's fake. I knew you couldn't utter a few true words from your mouth."
You Su Heiquan didn't seem surprised or angry. Instead, he admired his cautiousness:
"Speak up. It's come to this, you can't possibly hide your true identity from me anymore, right?"
Lu Xin said directly, "My surname is Lu, my name is Xin. I am the founder of the Seven Luminaries Sect in the Donghua Domain."
"Good fellow, you've hidden yourself really deeply."
Although You Su Heiquan didn't know who Lu Xin was, he knew that the Donghua Domain and the Qionglin Domain were completely unrelated.
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows."
Lu Xin chuckled, then asked a question he had always wanted to ask, which was what the Upper Realm that cultivators went to after passing the Third Tribulation was like.
Upon hearing this, You Su Heiquan solemnly shook his head, "I can't answer this question, because basically no one who ascended to the Upper Realm has ever returned. Therefore, the records in the Spirit Realm are also very few. Not many people know what the situation is in the Upper Realm."
Lu Xin was a little disappointed and asked again:
"Then after passing the Third Tribulation, how does one ascend? Is it a 'swoosh' and then they disappear, or do they need to shatter the space themselves?"
"You have quite the imagination, kid."
You Su Heiquan stroked his beard, "I can answer this, because my clan has had predecessors who have ascended."
Lu Xin pricked up his ears upon hearing this.
Then, You Su Heiquan slowly explained how to ascend.
...
Inside a cave dwelling, which was the residence arranged for him by the Nine Yang Heavenly Fox Clan, he entered, set up the formation, and couldn't wait to start devouring the poisonous substances.
To prevent his realm from increasing and causing the effects of low-level poisons to decrease.
Therefore, he decided to start by devouring the seventh-rank poisonous substance first.
As usual, after leaving the seeds behind.
Soon, the seventh-rank poisonous substance was swallowed into his stomach. With the transformation of the 【Poison Devouring Body】, a surge of energy was quickly produced.
He glanced at the panel and saw that it had only increased his mana by more than eighteen million.
Somewhat disappointed, he took out the eighth-rank poisonous substance and swallowed it in one gulp.
This time, the energy produced was much larger. Half an incense stick later, the energy stopped. He glanced at the panel again.
This eighth-rank poisonous substance had increased his mana by more than eighty-three million in total.
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the mana increase would be so much with only a one-rank increase in the poisonous substance's rank.
So, he couldn't wait to take out the ninth-rank poisonous spiritual herb, the Bone-Rotting Soul-Devouring Flower.
He felt his mana increasing just by smelling it.
So, unable to resist any longer, he left the seeds behind and directly devoured it in one gulp.
"Boom!"
Ninth-rank spiritual herbs were indeed extraordinary. Although it was a poisonous substance, it contained a huge amount of energy.
As soon as it entered his stomach, Lu Xin felt like he was about to explode.
Fortunately, the 【Poison Devouring Body】 quickly took effect. With the increase in mana, his dantian was also constantly expanding.
Finally, after half an hour, the energy gradually disappeared.
And in this process, he successfully broke through to the late stage of Body Integration, and there was still a surplus.
【Host: Lu Xin】
【Lifespan: 101 / 45150】
【Realm: Late Stage of Body Integration (87 million / 230 million)】
【Cultivation Technique: True Yang Evil-Slaying Demon-Quelling Art, Seventh Layer】
【Convertible Mana: million (continuously increasing)】
【Convertible Mana provided by Dao Companion Ji Yue: 3 million+ (One-click conversion available.)】
【Convertible Mana provided by Dao Companion Tu Shan Dan Yue: 2700 (No cultivation for the time being)】
【Passive Skills: Breathing, Heart of the Sword, Heart of Self, Bonds, Poison Devouring Body, Lord of Myriad Treasures, Body of Restriction Breaking...】
He looked at it. This ninth-rank poisonous spiritual herb, the Bone-Rotting Soul-Devouring Flower, had provided him with a total of 198 million mana.
Almost 200 million.
And his lifespan had also increased by a thousand years.
"Next, I'll go back and cultivate the poisonous substances and the Amethyst Star Pattern Fruit."
Lu Xin took out the seeds or roots of the poisonous substances he had collected along the way and looked at them, planning to cultivate the poisonous substances while widely recruiting disciples to increase his mana.
He was a little tired of running around himself.
He tidied up his clothes and walked out of the cave dwelling.
A moment later.
"What, you're leaving already?" You Su Heiquan asked in surprise.
Lu Xin nodded, "I've been out for a long time. It's time to go back and take a look. I'll come again when the Holy Island opens."
If I haven't ascended by then.
He silently added in his heart.
"Since that's the case, I won't keep you. It's just that Yue'er..." You Su Heiquan turned his gaze to Chunhu Qingzhen.
He saw her cough once and said, "You go first. Yue'er is temporarily in seclusion. I'll have her come find you in the future."
Lu Xin glanced at the system, which indicated that cultivation was paused. What seclusion? It seemed that she didn't agree with this matter.
But that was good too. If she went back with him, he didn't know how to tell the other Yue'er.
"In that case, this junior will take his leave first. You two are welcome to visit the Seven Luminaries Sect in the future."
Lu Xin cupped his hands, then turned and left, disappearing in an instant.
"Wait."
At this time, You Su Heiquan suddenly stopped him and took out a token, saying:
"This is the Myriad Demon Token. You are a human. You will always encounter trouble when traveling in the demon domain. With this token, you can travel unimpeded."
In fact, he was afraid that some ignorant person would provoke Lu Xin and lose their life for no reason.
After all, the other party had 70% of his strength.
Lu Xin didn't refuse, thanked him again, and then left, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Come out, little girl." Chunhu Qingzhen looked back.
Tu Shan Dan Yue silently walked out.
"You really don't want to become a Dao companion with him? I think he's quite handsome." Chunhu Qingzhen said.
Tu Shan Dan Yue glanced in the direction Lu Xin left, and said lightly, "I'll talk about it when I can beat him to the ground one day."
"That will be difficult." You Su Heiquan smiled and stroked his beard, thinking that as long as she didn't refuse, it was fine.
