Chapter 2498: Gathering the Astral Origins

ihang, he also knew the severity of the situation. The Yin-Yang Ring should have been secretly refined later on. 。unknown to people 。On the contrary, this woman before me has a profound understanding...The only problem was that the enemy could not fully control the time they gave him. 。However, with so many Spirit Crystals in hand, no matter where I go next, I'll at least have some peace of mind and won't waste the little time I have collecting more Spirit Crystals. 。All in all, this trip to the market was quite fruitful for Lu Xia Tian. 。The sea is calm and vast, while mountains and islands stand tall. 。The island where the ruin market is located gradually recedes in the distance. 。The demon race, the magic race, and the ghost race all drive into the island's thick fog. They follow along this space where the realms intersect, returning to their original places. 。The demon race in the endless Demon Sea, especially those not too far from the market town, naturally didn't need to do so. They could simply come and go directly from the Endless Demon Sea. 。“Lu Daoist, this seat has finally made friends with the Red and Green Ape King. I borrowed the Giant Boat of the Red and Green Ape King to enter the Underworld Corpse Land through a spatial passage, yet you refuse…” 。The praying mantis' eyes glinted menacingly at Lu Xiaodao. 。As for the Banchichi beside him, the four-winged mantis completely ignored it. 。When the Demon Lord explained it to me, he didn't mention anything about borrowing the power of the Red-Green Ape King. 。You go your sunny way, I cross my solitary bridge. 。Once I reach the Demon Grave, I will leave clues for you. If you believe you are strong enough to complete the tasks entrusted by the Demon Lord, feel free to go there on your own. 。If you don't have the ability to complete it independently, you'd best keep a humble attitude. 。

Failure to complete the task, it's not just me who will be punished by the Demon Lord.

Lu Xia Tian remained unmoved and said, 。“Lu Dao-you, calm down” 。King Mawang, since the Demon Lord has sent us three out to handle this, we should prioritize completing his mission. 。You absolutely mustn't give up on the mission before it's finished. As Lu Dao-you said, if we fail to complete the task, none of us will escape the Demon Lord's punishment. 。Since the Demon Lord has sent Lu Daoist over, he must have his reasons. 。Lu XiaTian's feud with the four-winged mantis was progressing faster than Ghost Scorpion King had imagined. 。Right now, Lu Xia Tian appears unconcerned about the Demonic Lord's punishment, but he can't truly be indifferent. 。And the mantis, with its overwhelming performance this time, is becoming too aggressive. If this continues, things won't look good for him either. 。The four-winged mantis's eyes held undisguised rage, but it was pathetic that Lu Xiaoteng didn't take it seriously at all. 。"Haha, it seems Lu Dao-you is worried about me settling scores in autumn. Well then, since you don't want to ride my demonic vessel, I wouldn't be eager to have you along either." 。After arriving at the Realm of Corpse Demons, this King will treat you well. 。The Red-Green Ape King saw several Four-winged Mantises locked in a stalemate. He laughed heartily at the sight. 。This time, he brought a large number of tribes to the market. Since the market trading had already ended and the mist that connected several realms was about to disappear, the Red-Green Ape King also found it inconvenient to stay for long. He immediately led his tribe away. 。Since the Shadow Scorpion spoke on your behalf, this seat will temporarily put this matter aside 。After the Demon Lord's tasks are completed, then we will settle accounts. 。"The four-winged mantis hadn't expected Lu Xia Tian to react so strongly. It stared at Lu Xia Tian for a moment, then let out a cold snort." 。"Always at your service" 。Lu Xia Tian nonchalantly said. 。Regardless of how things go, the threat from the Red-Green Ape King has been temporarily lifted. As for what lies ahead, at least we have to deal with it after reaching the Nether Demon Graveyard. 。Night, the deep and vast expanse of space dotted with twinkling stars. 。Brilliant starlight flickered in the void, gathering point by point into streams, guided by some force, constantly converging. 。Under the starry sky, Lu XiaTian, who was seated with his Phantom Spirit and Ban Qianzhi, each collected the starlight that converged. 。In the marketplace, through Ban Qianzhi's efforts, some medicinal pills were provided to spread the method of focusing starlight liquid. Through other people acting on his behalf, Lu Xia Tian had saved a lot of time. 。Less than two months after leaving the market, Lu Xiaoteng had collected enough star liquid. 。After collecting enough starlight, refining it into a stellar source didn't take too long. With a large formation ready to use at any time, Lu Xia Tian felt more confident. The only drawback was that using this formation required some preparation time. To intercept the four-winged mantis within the formation, he would inevitably have to pay a certain price. 。After all eight Star Cores were successfully refined, every night when the stars twinkled brilliantly, Lu XiaTian would still control his phantom spirit clone to absorb the starlight. 。Even Ban Qian was doing the same thing. 。

Relying on oneself to extract star liquid is a long process.

Unless he could gather another eight Star Cores like before, Lu Xia Tian didn't have to go all out this time around. 。The lotus avatar stopped absorbing starlight and continued to contemplate the sword way day and night. 。Lu Xia Tian continued with his daytime activities, further refining the Dragon Vein Dark Crystal. 。Dragon patterns and dark crystals transform into an astonishing spiritual energy that swirls within his dantian. Each day, only a thread as fine as silk can be formed. To help him break through to the later stage of the Nascent Soul realm, it would require a lengthy process. Exactly how long Even Lu Xia Tian wasn't sure, as it varied from person to person. 。

Some gifted cultivators with solid foundations require fewer resources. A few exceptional individuals can even break through cultivation barriers on their own.

Reaching the next realm is difficult, as few cultivators achieve it. It requires exceptional talent, a solid foundation, and the right mental state, along with a touch of luck. 。As for the Dragon Vein Dark Crystal, even Lu Xia Tian, at most he could absorb a fixed amount of spiritual energy from it every day. If it was refined into a elixir, it could shorten the time significantly. However, the Dragon Vein Hundred Refinement Pill is extremely difficult to refine, unlike elixirs like the Ming Shui Pill that are relatively easier to make. 。On the way from the bustling marketplace to the Nether Demon Cemetery, Lu Xiaoteng had no opportunity to refine pills. 。Fortunately, the number of dragon pattern dark crystals in his hand was sufficient. Lu Xiaoteng had naturally been patient throughout his cultivation until now. 。He was simply refining the dragon pattern dark crystals step by step, while cultivating various other techniques. After becoming familiar with the changes of Wu Xiang Xuanhuo and the way to use its supernatural powers. 。"Lu Dao-you, on the way to the Underworld Demon Cemetery, the Four-winged Mantis will surely clash with us. The Red and Green Ape King is also eyeing us hungrily. Lu Dao-you, do you have a plan to counter them" 。"Ban Qianzhi was collecting starlight for Lu Xia Tian at night, and cultivating himself during the day. Once, Ban Qianzhi interrupted his cultivation, and anxiously transmitted his voice to Lu Xia Tian saying..." 。At this time, although all the old monsters had gathered to head for the Nether Demon Corpse Land, they didn't get along with each other and kept a distance of over a hundred miles. This distance was nothing to these powerful cultivators at the combined body stage, it only took them a moment to cover. 。"If it were just a four-winged mantis, I would not be afraid. But with the addition of a red and green ape king, it is indeed troublesome. With my current strength, I am still unable to fight two opponents at once." 。Along the way, Lu Xiaotian was also thinking about this problem. Since Ban Qianzhi brought it up, Lu Xiaotian also said a few words. 。According to the current situation, the Four-Winged Mantis and the Red-Green Ape King have already gotten involved. Once they achieve their goal, it will inevitably be when they turn against you, Daoist Lu. 。 。“Everyone understands the reason, what do you think” Lu Xia Tian saw Ban Qian Zhi looked like she wanted to speak but held back. 。uld be dire. 。The snow-dwelling deer and the dragon lion were clearly very familiar with the environment within this Shadow Mirror. They went back and forth, leading Lu Xia Tian through it in an emerg...
