Chapter 898: secret path

~~

Little tanuki sat there with her eyes closed, her long black hair falling down to her waist like a waterfall. There was a Holy and solemn look on her pretty face, like a stern and inviolable goddess.

The two little spirits transformed from the power of the space-time Dao pattern circled around little tanuki. Rays of light sprinkled down and were absorbed into little tanuki's body.

For several days, ye chen stayed by little tanuki's side, quietly waiting for her to make a breakthrough in her cultivation.

As time passed, little tanuki's body began to emit a dazzling light.

The surrounding space-time Dao Pattern Power started to fluctuate violently.

Ye chen could feel that little tanuki's energy was constantly rising and was about to break through.

Ye chen and little tanuki's astral bodies had merged and their hearts were connected. When little tanuki's cultivation base increased, ye chen could also clearly feel that the nine Astra in his dantian was circulating faster than usual.

Ye chen seemed to be able to feel every change in energy in little tanuki's body.

"Soon!" Ye chen suddenly opened his eyes and looked at little tanuki.

As expected, the light on little tanuki's body grew brighter and brighter. The surrounding space-time Dao Pattern Power surged over and formed a vortex around little tanuki.

The spirit formed by the black and white space-time Dao Pattern Power disappeared into little tanuki's body. With a loud bang, little tanuki broke through the barrier of advancement and entered the lower Star Lord level from the tenth-tier God servant!

After breaking through to the lower Star Lord level, little tanuki did not open her eyes. Instead, she continued to sit cross-legged and consolidate her realm, allowing her cultivation to become more condensed.

Seeing that little tanuki had successfully advanced, ye chen smiled happily and felt relieved.

After a moment, little tanuki slowly opened her eyes. Her skin was as fair as snow and her eyes were like a clear pool. Her gaze shifted a few times over ye Chen's face. Her pink and tender cheeks were like pearls, as beautiful as Jade.

Little tanuki had finally cultivated to the level of a low-rank Star Lord!

Although his cultivation base was only at the lower Star Lord level, ye chen could feel that some of the power hidden in little tanuki's bloodline was awakening. Little tanuki's illusion could be considered a true creation of heaven and earth!

Ye chen smiled. Looking at the fairy-like little tanuki, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction. It was enough to have such a close female friend in his life.

"Let's continue looking for an exit!" Ye chen said. He could feel that the pair of eyes in the depths of the Imperial mausoleum of the great path had already shifted their gaze.

He didn't know who the owner of that gaze was and what he wanted to do. Ye chen was on guard. They had to leave this place as soon as possible.

Ye chen and little tanuki began to explore some places at the edge and finally entered the thick blood fog.

The fog here was thicker than the periphery of the Imperial mausoleum of the great path. If ye chen and little tanuki were not able to sense each other's location, they might have been separated very quickly.

Ye chen could vaguely see that there were many of those red flowers growing here. Some of them had already borne rich fruits, all of which were blood spirit Holy fruits!

He didn't expect there to be so many blood spirit fruits in the blood mist. Some of them must have been growing for a long time. They were several times bigger than ordinary blood spirit fruits. They were crystal clear and shone with an alluring luster.

To experts who had already become Star Lords, the blood Spirit's fruit was of no use. However, to those who were still in the tenth level of the deity warrior realm, the blood Spirit's fruit was an unparalleled treasure!

For some unknown reason, each Astral Soul would only select one powerful Star Lord. Hence, the position of Star Lord was very limited. However, these blood spirit fruits could allow some cultivators in the 10th level of the deity warrior realm to advance to the lower Star Lord realm without the help of an Astral Soul.

Of course, not everyone could become a low level Star Lord. They also needed a certain amount of talent and cultivation. Eating the blood spirit fruit only gave them a certain probability of advancing.

with these blood spirit fruits, sister tantai and the others might be able to become Star Lords when we return to the Tian Yuan planet! Little tanuki squatted down in joy and carefully plucked the blood spirit fruits.

Ye chen smiled.

As he walked through the blood mist, he would find some blood spirit fruits from time to time. Ye chen picked them along the way and soon, he had more than a dozen blood spirit fruits in his hands. There were three more that were older and little tanuki estimated that she had five or six.

With so many blood spirit fruits, how many Star Lords could they help the Tian Yuan planet create? Just the thought of it made him excited.

Ye chen and little tanuki searched for the exit while picking the blood spirit Holy fruit. Although the vision in the blood mist was extremely poor and they could not see each other if they were slightly further apart, ye chen and little tanuki could clearly sense each other's location.

At this moment, in the depths of the Imperial mausoleum of the great path.

This was an ancient Hall, and everything was cast from a metal similar to bronze. Even though it had gone through a long time, it was not damaged in the slightest, and only gave off a sense of vicissitudes.

In the center of the wide hall was a strange nine Palace array. In the middle of the array, a figure was sitting cross-legged quietly. He was wearing a black robe and a wide hat covered his face. He sat there as if he had been sitting there for countless years, as if his whole person had become one with the palace.

If someone saw the hand he had placed under the black robe, they would definitely be shocked.

There was no longer any flesh on his hand, only five sharp finger bones, but he could still move.

Looking up from the bones in his hand, all that was left of him was a skeleton. Some of the bones seemed to have been corroded by something, completely broken and rotten. Some of the bones were still connected to a trace of flesh, which was fresh and tender in color, as if it had just grown.

There wasn't much flesh left on his face, and only a pair of eyeballs were hanging from the empty eye sockets with muscles, looking extremely strange.

The black robe tightly covered his face and body, and no one could see that he actually looked like this under the black robe.

"I've been waiting for you guys. I've been waiting for you guys. I've been waiting for you guys." The black-robed man sat cross-legged, mumbling to himself in a somewhat neurotic manner. Suddenly, he let out a loud laugh. That laughter was sharp and ear-piercing, and it constantly echoed in the hall.

If someone were to pass by this place, they would definitely be frightened by this laughter.

Suddenly, he stopped laughing. His eyes flickered with a dark light as he muttered to himself, " "A descendant of a heavenly Lord of the great Dao and a descendant of an illusionary Xuan beast! And you, Your Highness Sage Xuanji, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

He fell into a long silence and lowered his head, as if he was recalling something. He muttered, " "I wonder how the heaven's origin sector is now. I haven't been back for a long time! I guess they've already forgotten about me. Things are still the same, people are not always the same!"

As he spoke, his eyes became frenzied, and he began to laugh crazily again. The entire Hall trembled with his laughter.

After a moment, three figures appeared not far away.

"Master!" The three figures knelt down on one knee and said respectfully. They were the experts of the Golden feather race, the human race, and the bi Fang race. The expert of the Golden feather race had the highest cultivation base, being an Empyrean Star Master.

"Bring that little girl over!" The black-robed man didn't even look at the three of them as he indifferently ordered.

"Yes!" The three experts swept out of the hall.

As soon as the black-robed man finished speaking, he suddenly gasped in surprise because he could no longer sense ye chen and little tanuki's energy!

His eyes could see through the vast blood mist and spy on every corner of the Imperial mausoleum of the great path. However, for some reason, he could not see ye chen and little tanuki.

In the garden.

Ye chen was picking the blood spirit fruit when he suddenly heard a "splash" and he could no longer sense little tanuki's aura.

Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. He quickly looked at the pond beside him and saw that circles of ripples were slowly spreading out on the surface of the water.

Did little tanuki fall into the pond?

With little tanuki's cultivation base, how could she have fallen into the pond for no reason?

What shocked ye chen even more was that even his astral body could not penetrate the water in the pond! He could not find where little tanuki was at all.

Ye Chen's heart was burning with anxiety. He shouted angrily and activated the power of the space-time Dao pattern, trying to break through the water's surface. However, he was once again surprised to find that the power of the space-time Dao pattern had inexplicably dissipated when it reached the water's surface!

There was definitely something strange about this pond!

However, it would be too late if he did not save little tanuki now. Ye chen could not care less and jumped into the pond.

As soon as ye chen jumped into the water, he saw a white figure at the bottom of the pond. Ye chen sensed that it was little tanuki!

Ye chen immediately swam down and suddenly hugged little tanuki, then they floated up together.

Little tanuki seemed to have fainted earlier. She only opened her eyes now, her eyes filled with confusion. She was obviously puzzled as to why she had suddenly fainted and fallen into the lake.

As a lower Star Lord, it was too strange for such a thing to happen.

They had almost been separated forever. Seeing that little tanuki had woken up, ye Chen's panicked heart finally calmed down.

Ye chen continued to float up with little tanuki. When he saw a glimmer of light in front of him, he brought little tanuki out of the water.

After he came up, ye chen immediately became alert. He looked around and could not help but be stunned.

It turned out that when they had floated up, they had actually entered the body of the fake mountain beside the pond. In front of them was a deep passage that led to an unknown place.

Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. There was a secret passage hidden in this artificial mountain!

little tanuki, we're here. ye chen was about to say something but when his eyes fell on little tanuki, he found it difficult to look away. He could not help but feel his mouth go dry.

After little tanuki's clothes were soaked by the water, they stuck to her body. Her fair skin was faintly visible, and the proud Jade peaks on her chest were exposed. Looking down, her curvaceous body, flat and smooth lower abdomen, and long and slender legs were all in plain sight.

Feeling ye Chen's gaze, little tanuki's pretty face turned red. She used her hands to cover her chest but her hands could not cover it at all. Instead, it made her even more seductive.
