Chapter 220: Huge Harvest, Disturbance in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range_3
At this moment, Qingqiu Hua was deep in retreat and Qingqiu did not make a sound.
Meanwhile, inside the Heavenly Demon Palace, the Palace Master of the Heavenly Demon Palace and all the senior ancestors had also received the news, leaving everyone stunned.
"Even Ancestor Yuan Yuan was defeated? And he even had the Heavenly Demon Drum! This is impossible! How could this be?" Nan Mingyuan's face was filled with disbelief.
The entire hall was silent as death, and all the Heavenly Demon Palace ancestors fell silent.
Soon after, an old woman spoke, "Since Ancestor Yuan Yuan was defeated, what of the Heavenly Demon Drum?"
The atmosphere turned even more tense, and Nan Mingyuan's lips twitched before he slowly said, "It must have fallen into Lu Yi's hands!"
"The Heavenly Demon Drum is our sect's Guardian Immortal Artifact. Without it, our sect will lose the majority of its foundation!" The faces of the Heavenly Demon Palace ancestors looked very grim.
"This shouldn't be an issue, as immortal artifacts are sentient. We can set up a great array and call back the Heavenly Demon Drum," Nan Mingyuan declared.
"Let's first summon back the Heavenly Demon Drum! This is a top priority!"
The ancestors who had crossed their tribulations were extremely anxious.
A group of them used a large amount of resources from the Heavenly Demon Palace to set up a stone platform, which was engraved with mysterious and complex patterns for awakening the spirit of the immortal artifact and bringing back the Heavenly Demon Drum.
Nan Mingyuan sat cross-legged within the formation, spiritual energy surged, feeding into the array.
The array gleamed; dark demon light emerged and began to activate.
However, in the next moment, Nan Mingyuan's complexion turned pale, and he coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, cracks appearing on his body as his aura weakened instantly.
This caused the expressions of nearby ancestors who had crossed their tribulations to drastically change as they quickly rushed over.
"Palace Master!"
"What's going on?!"
Nan Mingyuan's expression was one of shock, filled with terror, "I... I can't sense the spirit of the Heavenly Demon Drum! I've been backlashed by the formation!"
"What?!"
At this moment, all the senior figures of the Heavenly Demon Palace were petrified.
Nan Mingyuan coughed up more blood, weakly saying, "Quick! Inform the Demon Ancestor; a great disaster is approaching our Heavenly Demon Palace! Only the Demon Ancestor can resolve this."
......
While the outside world was in turmoil, after Lu Yi, Yun Xi, and Liu Ningshuang had completed their dual cultivation, they joyfully returned to the cultivation room to tally their spoils of war.
Having slain the Void Immortal and two Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors of the Heavenly Demon Palace, Lu Yi naturally wouldn't be without a task.
[Task]
Killing the invaders from the Heavenly Demon Palace. (Completed)
Rewards: Mid Grade Immortal Device, the Demon Extinguishing Sword; detailed explanation of Heavenly Immortal Level Array Tao; 10% of the Dark Law; three Demon Origin Grass plants; 100 drops of Star Marrow.
Would you like to claim the reward: Yes/No
As the opponent was a Void Immortal armed with an Immortal Device, the reward was naturally extremely generous.
The Mid Grade Immortal Device, the Demon Extinguishing Sword, possessed tremendous lethality against demons and anything with a demonic nature. Moreover, it was a longsword, which was an extremely precious Immortal Device for Lu Yi, who mastered over 20% of the Sword Tao Law, and was comparable to the Blood Slaughter Boxing Gloves.
The most exciting for Lu Yi was the detailed explanation of the Heavenly Immortal Level Array Tao.
Lu Yi's array Taoist skills were only at the Mortal Realm level of specific cultivation methods, and he had no means of accessing the Immortal Level Array Tao explanation.
Although his enlightenment in Array Tao was not shallow, he still could not master the Immortal Array.
Now, with this Immortal Level Array Tao explanation, as long as Lu Yi could fully comprehend it, he would definitely be able to set up an Immortal Array!
That would be an Immortal Array!
As long as he could set it up, even if an Immortal arrived, Lu Yi would no longer worry.
The Dark Tao is also an extremely powerful Tao among the Three Thousand Great Tao, and the Dark Law is naturally also immensely powerful.
Even 10% of the Dark Law was not weak.
Demon Origin Grass is a type of Immortal Herb that contains powerful demonic nature and dark power; after absorbing it, one can enhance their magic power.
Most importantly, as an Immortal Herb, like the Immortal Tree, it can emit Spiritual Energy.
Lu Yi naturally would not use it directly but planned to plant it outside his Cave Mansion.
In recent years, as Lu Yi and Yun Xi used secret techniques and Spirit Jade to cultivate Immortal Trees, these trees had already achieved a certain level of growth.
Not to mention other places, the concentration of Spiritual Energy at Ling Luo Peak had become extremely exaggerated, far surpassing even the Immortal Sect Holy Land.
Even the entirety of the White Cloud Sect's Spiritual Energy concentration was extremely high, already exceeding that of a typical Immortal Sect Holy Land.
Even his own Master and Grandma Yuanling were amazed.
If all the Immortal Trees fully grew, there was a real hope that the White Cloud Sect could transform into an Immortal Domain on this Mortal Star!
As for the matter of calling his Master 'dad' that his Master had mentioned before, Lu Yi thought it over and still didn't bring it up.
The more he knew about his Master's identity, the more nervous Lu Yi became. Thinking about it, his Master's dad was probably an extremely powerful big shot, and he didn't dare to take advantage of that, to avoid being killed.
The last Star Marrow was a precious Cultivation Resource, which Lu Yi naturally kept for himself.
Lu Yi had previously inquired with his Master that Star Marrow was generally a cultivation resource for Immortals, not something all Immortals could obtain, immensely precious.
Now, Lu Yi already had hundreds of drops in hand, which was considered wealthy even among Immortals.
Of course, if including the many Immortal Artifacts that Lu Yi possessed, there were probably few low-level Immortals who could compare with him.
Lu Yi was very satisfied. He hadn't yet ascended, but he had already accumulated a vast family fortune, which was very nice.
Lu Yi spent an entire year to fully absorb and materialize all the rewards.
Lu Yi absorbed the Heavenly Immortal Level Array Tao detailed explanation and understood that after Ascension, Cultivators became Heavenly Immortals.
However, from the previous conversation between Grandma Yuanling and senior Wang Jianyuan, it appeared that there were still levels like Profound Immortal and True Immortal, and even Immortals had many realms.
Lu Yi had not yet ascended and did not dare to aim too high, so he didn't dwell much on this matter but began to comprehend the detailed Array Tao explanations.
In the time that followed, Lu Yi's daily routine was Cultivation, Dual Cultivation, and comprehending various Cultivation Skills, devoting most of his time to the detailed Array Tao explanations.
He planned to master the knowledge of Immortal Arrays as quickly as possible so that he could set up Immortal Arrays.
Even, he could deduce Immortal Arrays on his own!
......
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, fifteen years had gone by.
Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.
As the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range had numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and various Fierce Beasts were also precious resources, numerous Cultivators visited the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range daily, hunting Fierce Beasts and searching for treasures.
One day, deep within the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, a terrifying tremor suddenly erupted, causing the entire mountain range to stir.
The Cultivators inside the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range were immensely horrified and looked up toward the depths.
In the vicinity of the center of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, some Great Power Level experts were especially startled.
Before their eyes, in the deepest part of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, terrifying black demon mists surged into the sky, swirling with an unimaginable terrifying power.
Then, they saw a gigantic arm stretch out from within the demon mist, reaching toward the heavens, like a pillar.
