Chapter 117: The Power of Light Beams

  The days in the forest are dull, fortunately, Zhen Ye has also gotten used to it over this period of time and doesn't feel lonely or bored. Moreover, isn't there still Tian Dao and Gu Di Temple accompanying him?

  Tian Dao has a sword spirit and can talk to himself, but Gu Di Temple...

  According to Knife Spirit himself, if the Ancient Emperor's Palace is fully restored, his divine powers will not be inferior to those of Heaven's Knife. However, even Knife Spirit does not know how to help the Ancient Emperor's Palace recover!

  It's a headache because even Ling Wu can't figure it out.

  Gazing up at the bright moon in the sky, it seems to have distanced itself from the intrigue and scheming of the imperial capital. With fewer people around, the moon appears fuller and brighter here.

  "I wonder how everyone at home is doing? And Xiaoyu..."

  Before leaving the Imperial City, Chen Ye had already prepared a pure and yang-based cultivation method for Xiao Yu, believing that with her special physique, she would definitely achieve remarkable accomplishments on the path of cultivation, and there was no need for Chen Ye to worry about her body being tormented by the power of Taiyin again.

  "Master, look!"

  The voice of the knife spirit suddenly rang out, and Chen Ye hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the knife spirit. Near the deep pit on that empty land, it seemed to have shaken slightly, and then, a strand of energy breath that seemed to exist and disappear slowly appeared in the soul's perception.

  "Master, I can now be certain that beneath the deep pit, there must be some kind of living creature hidden!"

  At the mention of this, Chen Ye's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he said, "If it were a living being, how could it live deep underground? Moreover, judging from the fiery red glow it emits, its true form is definitely extraordinary. How could it tolerate others using its energy to heal their wounds?"

  Dao Lingdao said, "Although that's the case, there are always exceptions. Moreover, Qiu Zhen and the others should know more about it. Master, you might as well go ask them. By the way, I'll remind you of something - that old man keeping you here doesn't seem to have good intentions!"

  "Up to no good?"

  "Tonight, I don't want to provoke them, but if they insist on provoking me, then there's no choice. At that time, I can only go and test the results of my training in the mountains for the past month, and see if it will surprise me!"

  The movements coming from the deep pit soon disappeared, and in the following night, there were no more energy fluctuations, as if the creature inside had fallen asleep early.

  After daybreak, they came out of the cave and Zhen Ye saw the five people from Autumn Shock again. They sat cross-legged around the deep pit once more, just like yesterday, waiting for the appearance of the fiery red light.

  "Hey little brother, good morning!" Qiu Zhen smiled and greeted him.

  "Alright, you guys continue, don't mind me!" Chen Ye smiled and responded, they all knew each other, so there was no need to hide, he simply found a huge rock to sit on.

  "Little brother, if you're interested, come and experience it for yourself?"

  Qiu Zhen laughed and said: "That fiery red light beam is not only effective for my injuries, but also has a stimulating effect on one's cultivation. You can come and try it."

  "Anyway, your injury is more important, I'm afraid that if I get too excited later on, or can't hold back, it will interfere with your recovery, and that would be terrible."

  "It doesn't matter, if little brother really can't hold on, just say so in advance, we can send you out of this range, it won't affect me."

  "In that case, I won't be polite."

  Chen Ye hastily floated down from the stone, looking very anxious, and in a few moments he arrived outside the deep pit and sat on the ground that Qiu Zhen had cleared for him.

  Seeing him like this, except for Qiu Zhen, the other four people all smiled coldly in their hearts.

  "Right, Master Autumn, I don't know what's down there, but how can it emit such a glow? Could it be a volcano? But if it were a volcano, that wouldn't make sense either - it's not possible for the glow to appear at exactly the same time every time."

  As soon as he sat down, Chen Ye couldn't wait to ask.

  Upon hearing this, Qiu Zhen let out a bitter laugh and said: "To be honest, I'm not too clear about what's down in that deep pit either. It's just that Wu Er happened to discover this place by chance, and it so happens that it can help me recover from my injuries, so we came here."

  "Oh, so even the master of the Qiu household didn't know, this is quite strange."

  "Autumn House Master, have you ever thought of going in to investigate? With your cultivation, it shouldn't be a problem. If there really is some kind of heavenly treasure down there, that would be an enormous temptation."

  "Heh heh, little brother, after that fiery red light appears later, you'll know just how suffocating that scorching feeling is. Even I, if it weren't for relying on a spiritual treasure, wouldn't be able to protect them and use this energy to heal their wounds."

  At the corner of his eyebrow, Lingbao, in the ranking of military treasure, although it is the lowest level of Lingbao, except for the most ordinary mortal instrument, but also has a certain spirituality, not as good as the innate Lingbao, but also can't be found.

  A spiritual treasure, even in the imperial city's various great aristocratic families, is extremely precious.

  It's said that wealth shouldn't be revealed in public, but this autumn shock, facing an unfamiliar self, directly spoke out the Lingbao, and he really is very trusting of himself!

  Pausing for a moment, Autumn Shock continued: "Young brother, the power of my spiritual treasure is not very great, so it can only support five people. Wait a while..."

  "Don't worry, master of the autumn house, I'm just here to experience the uniqueness of this place. You don't need to bother with me, just help me out when I can no longer bear it and send me away."

  "Hehe, of course, little brother don't worry."

  "Grandfather, let's begin. Don't say any more, focus your energy!" The woman said softly, not forgetting to glare at Chen Ye with a fierce gaze.

  "Little brother, it's really not good..."

  Autumn shock had not finished speaking, the ground shook slightly, because just above the deep pit, at this moment, Chen Ye first sensed a scorching breath that seemed to appear directly from the ground he was sitting on, and then, there was a fiery red light that rushed into the air.

  Under such a brilliant light, the temperature in the surrounding space rose rapidly. Autumn Shock was also right that his Lingbao could only maintain the five of them...

  Appearing directly under the reflection of the fiery red light, that scorching heat was like rolling waves, one wave after another, rapidly rushing towards the zenith.

  When invaded by the tide, Chen Ye felt not only the unbearable scorching heat, but also a powerful impact like a true wave crashing against his body.

  "Hmmph!"

  With Chen Ye's temperament, at this moment, he couldn't help but let out a loud cry, and immediately hurriedly activated his technique. The mysterious energy surged forth to counter the scorching heat wave's impact.

  At this time, Chen Ye finally believed in Qiu Zhen's words. This crimson light beam indeed had the effect of stimulating one's cultivation.

  Under such high temperatures, if there is no spiritual treasure or the like to protect oneself, then one can only rely on their own cultivation. In this process, the heat wave will directly stimulate the flow rate of the Xuan Qi, which is equivalent to indirectly accelerating the speed of cultivation.

  The benefits are not small, Chen Ye estimated that if he didn't reach the Upper Mystic Realm, he would absolutely be unable to calmly cultivate here. If Chen Ye didn't use the Heaven's Blade to protect himself, it would take at most a minute, but if he entered the light beam, it would only take over ten seconds...

  It wasn't even a minute before Chen Ye decided to retreat, the things were good but he had to be alive to enjoy them, and besides, there were other people around, it really wasn't a safe place.

  "Wait, master!"

  "Master, the energy here seems to be absorbable by the Ancient Emperor's Palace!"

  "Really?"

  Great joy at dawn, from the ancient emperor's temple to now, his appearance has been rare, only a few times, among which he took the initiative to appear once, and absorbed Xiaoyao's Taiyin power... After that time, let the ancient emperor's temple recover a bit, what about now?

  "Master, don't be too excited, I'm just saying it seems that way. Even if the ancient temple can absorb this beam of light, the energy contained within is still too little to activate the ancient temple."

  "Is there too little energy here?"

  Chen Ye smiled slightly, and his gaze immediately turned to the deep pit in front of him.
