Free Web NovelChapter 2064: Chapter 2062: Hengyue Galaxy
This cultivation journey took Lu Ye roughly a year.
A year later, he returned from beneath the sea.
He could not continue cultivating, as his consumption of fire-type resources was too alarming. Even though Three Worlds Island had done its utmost in the past six months, the fire-type resources acquired were still insufficient.
This led to intermittent cultivation.
Currently, his Talent Tree still has some fuel reserves, which can’t be consumed anymore; it’s always good to have a backup, just in case.
This year’s cultivation indeed brought significant growth in Lu Ye’s cultivation, but it’s far from reaching mid-stage. After Sun Blaze, the accumulation required for a breakthrough was noticeably larger than before.
Upon reflection, although the Talent Tree had some changes, it still hasn’t reached the point of transformation. Lu Ye couldn’t even determine how much uncanny fire it needs—only that the fourth transformation of the Talent Tree is a bottomless pit.
This didn’t discourage him; instead, it invigorated him. The enormous demand from the Talent Tree suggested that once it completed its transformation, there would be significant changes.
Back in the day, it seemed the previous Nine Provinces’ Chao Nian hadn’t reached this level. In terms of growth potential, Lu Ye undoubtedly surpassed the previous generation’s Dao Tree successor.
In just a mere year, All Phenomena Ocean hadn’t seen much change. In fact, since the conspiracy of the Insect and Blood Races was exposed, conflicts among various factions have reduced considerably.
Today, many powerful factions and cultivators are investigating the Insect and Blood Races’ affairs, while probing the secrets of the impending major shift. Unfortunately, to date, no one has gained any substantial insights.
Lu Ye didn’t linger much on Three Worlds Island. A few days later, after instructing Old Tang and others to continue purchasing fire-type resources, he disguised himself and left Three Worlds Island.
He planned to head to the Hengyue Galaxy, which was the previous Nine Provinces galaxy.
Before Ma Bin left, he had shared some things with Lu Ye, so Lu Ye wanted to learn what resources the Hengyue Galaxy could offer to meet his fire-type resource demands.
Before departing, Lu Ye brought along a large quantity of spirit jade, spirit crystals, and psyche refinement pills to ensure that even while traveling, he could cultivate using these resources at any time.
The galaxy where the previous Nine Provinces resided was directly interconnected with All Phenomena through an Insect Path.
Upon one occasion, Lu Ye curiously asked Ma Bin during a casual chat why he wanted to kill Sun Blaze of All Phenomena—was there some deep-seated hatred between All Phenomena Galaxy and the previous Nine Provinces?
Ma Bin’s response was that back in the day, many forces joined hands to attack Nine Provinces. The smooth coordination and assembly were thanks to All Phenomena Galaxy’s convenience.
Those forces came from all corners of stellar space, and without All Phenomena Galaxy offering them a passage, how could they converge so easily?
Moreover, during the operation against the previous Nine Provinces, All Phenomena Galaxy had also participated.
Days gone by like smoke; most cultivators from those times have perished, only some long-lived species, such as powerful Demon Race members, have survived. So over the years, Ma Bin’s revenge was mostly fulfilled, and he never revealed to Lu Ye which specific factions took part in the assault on the previous Nine Provinces, evidently not wanting to continue this cycle of vengeance.
The affairs of the previous Nine Provinces ended with him.
In summary, the travel between All Phenomena Galaxy and the galaxy of the previous Nine Provinces was very convenient.
The absence of a governor at the front of the Insect Path undoubtedly indicated that the galaxy of the previous Nine Provinces had completely declined. If there were massive domains present, the Insect Path wouldn’t be in an unguarded state.
Lu Ye probed the condition of the Insect Path, confirming it to be relatively stable, and proceeded straight through.
Moments later, he arrived in the Hengyue Galaxy.
Looking back, behind him was the exit of the Insect Path. Observing his surroundings, Lu Ye furrowed his brows.
Although he knew this galaxy had declined, he never expected it to have fallen to such a degree. The bright stars visible elsewhere in stellar space were scarce here, and the entire space was shrouded in vast patches of darkness; even the stellar space spirit energy wasn’t considered dense.
In such an environment, not to mention the birth of large domains, the production of spirit jade was far less than in normal places.
Lu Ye immediately formed a judgment; such a place was only slightly better than some truly barren star systems.
Just as Lu Ye was contemplating which direction to head, some noise suddenly came from behind him.
Turning back, he saw rippling near the Insect Path exit, with faint silhouettes gradually emerging.
Someone was coming!
Sure enough, within three breaths, two figures suddenly burst forth from the Insect Path.
A man and a woman, due to just passing through the Insect Path, had palpable energy fluctuations. The man was at Moon Jade Early Stage, while the woman was at Constellation Late Stage. frёewebηovel.cѳm
However, their states were intimate, holding hands—likely Dao companions or siblings—their auras fiery, unmistakably aligned with the fire element.
They clearly hadn’t expected someone at the Insect Path exit. At first glance, seeing Lu Ye, they were both startled, eyes full of vigilance, their energies subtly activated.
Naturally, Lu Ye had no interest in them, and he had already disguised himself for this journey, so the man and woman failed to recognize him as the master of All Phenomena Ocean.
Additionally, with Lu Ye’s still presence and restrained aura, they couldn’t discern his depth.
Sensing Lu Ye’s lack of malice, the man nodded slightly to Lu Ye, tugged the woman, and then swiftly moved to the side, disappearing from view in no time.
Lu Ye did not pay attention, lifting his eyes to survey the stellar space. Where should he go?
Ma Bin only told him to come to the Hengyue Galaxy, but didn’t tell him what exactly was here.
However, if there is really something useful to him within this galaxy, it shouldn’t be hard to discover with his Sun Blaze cultivation.
Let’s wander around and take a look; after all, this is the galaxy where the previous Nine Provinces was located. To nurture such a top domain as the previous Nine Provinces, this galaxy must have something unique.
He randomly chose a direction and leapt away.
Along the way, he found nothing until half a day later, he suddenly turned his head to look towards a certain direction, where a fluctuation of mana was spreading out. It seemed like someone was contending.
And as time went by, it was getting closer and closer to him.
It wasn’t a contention, but a pursuit.
Lu Ye focused his gaze, then laughed silently, because he saw that the ones being pursued were actually the man and woman he had seen before at the exit of the Insect Path. At this moment, both looked battered and exhausted. The man had a higher cultivation, continuously using techniques to attack backwards while fleeing, intending to hinder the enemy, but with little effect.
Those chasing them weren’t cultivators, but star beasts.
It was an elliptical star beast, more than ten feet long, completely snow-white like a giant silkworm cocoon. Both ends had ferocious giant mouths with spiraling sawtooth fangs densely packed. Such a star beast was clearly too much for the two fleeing.
Lu Ye had never seen a star beast like this. It wasn’t a matter of experience; the variety of star beasts in stellar space was just too vast. Even the most knowledgeable cultivator wouldn’t dare claim to know all star beasts.
The two initially hadn’t noticed Lu Ye, but as they drew closer, they finally sensed Lu Ye’s presence. The leading man’s face first showed a startlement, followed quickly by joy as he shouted, "Fellow Daoist, benevolent! Please, save us! My wife and I are willing to offer a 5-star magic treasure as gratitude!"
He didn’t know what cultivation Lu Ye had exactly, but from their brief previous encounter, he could feel Lu Ye’s strength surpassed his own.
Moreover, since Lu Ye dared to stand still, it showed a great confidence in his own strength.
In the current situation, seeking rescue from Lu Ye was undoubtedly the best choice, and he even mentioned the gratitude gift to persuade Lu Ye to agree.
This was undeniably thoughtful of him. They were being pursued in the stellar space. Without saying anything and just approaching Lu Ye would obviously mean bringing trouble to him. If Lu Ye wasn’t in a good mood, they might be killed by him before the star beast even attacked.
Although giving up a 5-star magic treasure was painful, what did it matter compared to saving their lives?
After calling out, he attentively checked the situation on Lu Ye’s side, heard no response, yet the other party still stood there motionless, with his attitude unclear.
This left them unable to judge if the other party was willing to help...
However, the current situation left him no time for hesitation. The man gritted his teeth, "We have nothing to lose!"
He led the woman and swiftly approached Lu Ye. Only after they passed by Lu Ye did they feel relieved they didn’t encounter any attack.
From behind, a faint fluctuation of mana emerged. When he turned around again, his expression froze.
Because the once-imposing star beast was split in two at the center at that moment. The two halves of its corpse were neatly cut, flying past on either side of the unknown expert, who remained unstained by even a drop of blood.
Sun Blaze!
The man’s heart trembled, instantly judging Lu Ye’s cultivation.
That momentary mana fluctuation was undeniable. Furthermore, that star beast possessed the Moon Jade Late Stage caliber; to slay it so effortlessly, apart from Sun Blaze, there was no other possibility.
Composing himself, the man then brought the woman over to stand not far from Lu Ye, courteously cupping his fists: "Thank you, Senior, for saving our lives!"
Lu Ye turned his head to look at them, feeling oddly amused.
Senior...
He could be certain that he was definitely younger than this couple, but the cultivation world was like this, respecting strength, especially in such remote places. If proper etiquette wasn’t shown, nobody would know if they got casually killed.
Collecting his thoughts, Lu Ye slightly nodded, adopting a demeanor of a powerful figure, causing even greater reverence in the hearts of the couple.
Sun Blaze, a high and unattainable height for them.
As previously agreed, the man quickly took out a 5-star magic treasure and respectfully handed it over, as repayment for saving their lives.
Lu Ye received it casually; the 5-star magic treasure wasn’t much to him, but it could be used to nurture the Sword Qi for the sword gourd, and it was what he deserved.
The woman even took the initiative to retrieve the Crystal Core from the star beast’s corpse and handed it to Lu Ye, clearly trying to endear themselves to him.
"Is Senior also heading to the Giant Red Planet?" the man asked.
Although Lu Ye appeared indifferent, since he was willing to help just now, it showed he wasn’t someone cold-blooded. Such strong individuals weren’t hard to get along with, which was why the man dared to boldly inquire.
