Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 296 - 294: Heaven and Earth Treasure Obtained, Secret Realm Collapses! Jiang Qingge: "Husband?! You’re back!
"The Spiritual Awareness Technique truly works."
The terrifying gravity had mostly dissipated, and Lu Ye quickly approached an oddly peculiar low tree.
The Heaven and Earth Source Qi within a radius of several hundred meters here was several times denser than elsewhere.
The surrounding vegetation was also extraordinarily lush, likely nourished by the dense Source Qi.
Lu Ye could sense that there seemed to be pure energy sporadically emanating from the trunk of the small tree!
Upon swiftly reaching the tree, Lu Ye stretched out his hand to pull it out from the soil.
Unexpectedly, despite exerting thousands of pounds of force, the small tree remained unmoved.
"Hmm..."
Lu Ye felt something strange and increased his strength.
Wrapping the root with Grandmaster’s Source Qi to prevent harm, Lu Ye applied force!
...Still, it didn’t budge!
By now, Lu Ye realized something was peculiar.
In his Qi Sea Dantian, the Source Qi of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer began to flow out without reservation, sharply increasing his strength.
A quarter of an hour passed...
Another quarter of an hour...
Finally, Lu Ye’s expression became extremely serious, and even the Star Body was activated once again!
Beside him, Xiao Ling stared blankly as his master employed various means to uproot a tree, nearly stunned.
Is this tree really that hard to uproot?
Finally, after exerting great effort and even using the last resort, the Falling Flame Star Body, Lu Ye managed to pull the small tree out of the ground.
The instant the tree was uprooted, the terrifying gravity on the entire mountain peak suddenly surged.
Even the Spiritual Awareness Technique now had a negligible effect.
Under this overwhelming pressure, Lu Ye’s face turned pale instantly.
"Let’s go!"
...
At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Source Qi within the entire Broken Soul Forbidden Land suddenly became chaotic.
All around the Forbidden Land.
Many powerful fierce beasts raised their heads, looking suspiciously at the phenomenon in the Forbidden Land, unsure of what had happened.
Elsewhere.
With Xiao Ling at full speed, escaping the Secret Realm, Lu Ye’s eyes flashed with rare fear.
He hadn’t anticipated that everything would change after uprooting that small tree...
Winds rose and clouds billowed, thunder rumbled, and an aura of despair enveloped the mysterious mountain peak.
The Secret Realm itself began to... collapse!
"The Secret Realm is collapsing!"
When it comes to spatial collapse, not to mention a Mortal Realm Grandmaster, even a Celestial Realm cultivator is at great risk, with slight negligence leading to fatality.
The entire Secret Realm began collapsing rapidly, starting from the peak’s location.
In the last moment of escape, Lu Ye heard immense noise and, turning back, saw the colossal mountain peak...
Being carried away by some power... flying away!
Witnessing such a scene firsthand, one might find it hard to believe if described to others.
A mountain, and a rather sizable one at that, could actually fly away.
Even Lu Ye, who considered himself experienced, had never seen anything like this before!
Xiao Ling, clinging tightly to one of Lu Ye’s legs, displayed a fear on its small face that was utterly human-like.
Facing the collapse of space... it would not survive!
Only to be crushed into powder and transformed into pure Heaven and Earth Energy, vanishing into the atmosphere.
The spiritual object was utterly terrified!
"This Secret Realm... is too odd."
Observing the similarly strange Broken Soul Forbidden Land, thunder continued to rumble within a radius of hundreds of miles, causing Lu Ye to swiftly flee beyond the Forbidden Land.
...
Beyond the Broken Soul Forbidden Land.
The Forbidden Land was terrifying; few cultivators dared enter it.
Yet, due to its presence, the Heaven and Earth Source Qi here was denser than in most other places.
Leading to better chances for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to grow within a radius of several hundred miles.
At this moment, in a small mountain range less than fifty miles from the Forbidden Land.
Two men gazed dumbfounded at the distant spectacle of thunder.
Here they stood within fifty to sixty miles of the Forbidden Land’s edge, while thunder roared there, leaving this side as quiet as a still pond...
"Did something happen in that terrifying Forbidden Land?!" said the man on the left, his eyes filled with deep fear.
They lived in a village hundreds of miles from the Forbidden Land.
There was immense reverence for the Forbidden Land that had swallowed countless lives.
The phenomena in the sky were easily noticed, and cultivators from a radius of hundreds of miles were drawn to the commotion in the Forbidden Land.
Previously, the Northern Territory had experienced thunder phenomena.
The reappearance of peculiar thunder phenomena in the Broken Soul Forbidden Land quickly spread.
In a small town about three to four hundred miles from the Forbidden Land, a disguised Wang Xingluo was recuperating there.
Upon hearing the news, Wang Xingluo felt an instinctive sense of foreboding!
"Broken Soul Forbidden Land... suspected anomaly? Or perhaps a Beast King breakthrough?!"
The rumor sounded somewhat credible, yet Wang Xingluo dared not be optimistic.
He had just exited the Forbidden Land, only to have a Beast King break through immediately after?
Too coincidental!
Moreover, what kind of Beast King would invoke a localized phenomenon upon breaking through?
Wishing to investigate further, the horror of the Forbidden Land deterred Wang Xingluo...
With a somber gaze, he reluctantly dismissed the idea.
...
The rumor initially didn’t concern Red Cloud Fairy.
However, half a day later, when Lu Ye returned to the top of Sect Leader Peak, Red Cloud clearly sensed... that he had been injured!
Although he seemed to have recovered, the sense of depleted vitality remained.
"You were injured? Who could hurt you?"
At the peak, Red Cloud Fairy frowned, did he have another confrontation with the Five Poison Sect Leader?
"It’s nothing, a small matter." Lu Ye calmly shook his head.
"You... wouldn’t have gone to the Broken Soul Forbidden Land, right?" Red Cloud Fairy stared at him: "Otherwise, with your strength, going after the Five Poison Sect Leader makes no sense, besides the Forbidden Land, I can’t think of anyone capable of hurting you."
After pondering for a moment, Red Cloud Fairy’s star-like eyes widened as she said, "I received news, the Broken Soul Forbidden Land had abnormal activity, some suspect it was caused by a Beast King breakthrough..."
"Did you stir up the Beast King’s lair in the Forbidden Land?!"
Lu Ye: "..."
This Red Cloud, quick to think indeed, but her imagination runs wild with baseless ideas.
Without directly answering, Lu Ye said plainly, "There’s a month left until the Sect Secret Realm opens... I’ll leave for now, and I’ll come back for you after a month."
"Where are you heading?" Red Cloud Fairy asked nonchalantly.
Lu Ye looked at Red Cloud with a playful smile: "Are you trying to pry information out of me?"
Red Cloud Fairy: "..."
She too wondered why his mind worked so swiftly.
Indeed, she intended to probe where he wanted to go, whether back to Cloud Leaf City or somewhere else.
Unexpectedly, he deflected it so easily.
After a while, Lu Ye flew from Sect Leader Peak, leaving Red Cloud Sect.
Red Cloud thoughtfully considered whether she should find an excuse for another trip to Cloud Leaf City.
... 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Cloud Leaf City.
Jiang Qingge had taken some time to inspect the family shops over the last few days.
Not yet back at the Jiang Family, she had just turned a street corner when she stopped, rubbing her eyes as if mistaken.
At the other end of the street, a handsome young man in hemp clothing appeared, walking slowly towards her.
"Hu—Husband?!"
"You’re back!"
