Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 396 - 394: The Escaping Mortal Realm Grandmaster Seventh Layer—Lu Ye, Who Can Overwhelm Yun Province’s Geniuses?
At this moment, Nangong Xihua couldn’t help but doubt herself. Wasn’t she the Saintess of the Dao Sect of Heaven?
Being able to ascend to the position of Saintess represented her extraordinary talent, with the potential to reach the Celestial Realm Grandmaster.
She might even touch the Celestial Human Realm pinnacle of Yun Province!
However, at this moment, Nangong Xihua was not very confident in herself for the first time.
He had seen Lu Ye’s true face at the Jiang Family in Cloud Leaf City and knew what this masked man looked like.
He even thought that this person’s real age might be younger than his own.
While she was known as a rising star of the younger generation in Yun Province.
So, what would people think if this person went to Yun Province...?
A peerless genius?
If such praise were to be given to any of those few people in Yun Province now, Nangong Xihua believed, none of them could bear it.
After all, in terms of realm, those few are almost on par with herself.
But Lu Ye had already completely surpassed her.
Nangong Xihua looked at the two dueling in the field, feeling a bit complicated.
At this time, Lu Ye looked at the wild serpent phantom carrying the breath of the desert and pointed forward with one finger...
Crack... Boom!
The previously imposing wild serpent phantom shattered suddenly!
Caught off guard, the Illusory Destruction Yin Yang Finger not only shattered the wild serpent phantom but also left a deep scar on the body of the one-armed elder.
"Divine Techniques, these are Divine Techniques... you actually know Divine Techniques?!"
The Desert Elder’s face showed fear for the first time.
He possessed three Celestial Tier Secret Scriptures, but none were Divine Techniques.
At this moment, the display of a Divine Technique by Lu Ye caused more than just fear in the Desert Elder’s heart; there was a hint of greed.
It was because of the lack of Divine Techniques that his battle power, even among the Mortal Realm Seventh Layer Grandmasters, was not top-notch.
But next, Lu Ye struck two more fingers, adding two new wounds to the Desert Elder, which instantly awakened the greedy old eyes of the Desert Elder completely.
The Divine Techniques grasped by the opponent seemed highly advanced and tricky!
At this point, a premonition of doom had already emerged in the Desert Elder’s heart.
With a somewhat gloomy look at the almost entirely plundered medicine garden, the Desert Elder began to search for a way out.
Very quickly, he also found that flight was actually forbidden here.
Moreover, the valley was surrounded on three sides by high cliffs, with only one way out.
However, that path seemed somewhat unusual, thick mist billowed at the valley’s entrance, without a hint of entry.
But it gave a slightly strange feeling.
At this time, the Desert Elder didn’t have time to think much; the pressure from Lu Ye was increasing.
If he stayed here any longer, he feared he would fall at the hands of this young junior.
"I’ll spare you today! I will not accompany you further."
With the words spoken, the Desert Elder retreated rapidly, instantly reaching the valley’s entrance.
Then, he unhesitatingly rushed into the white mist.
In the blink of an eye, the Desert Elder vanished from the place.
Seeing the Desert Elder fleeing, Lu Ye’s attention was also drawn to the scene.
Regarding the path out of the valley, Lu Ye always had a vague sense of unease, thinking it was not a good place to go.
Now that the Desert Elder wanted to escape that way, it was just an opportunity to see if anything unexpected would happen.
Unexpectedly, he watched the Desert Elder enter the white mist passage and disappear, without any apparent anomalies.
Nangong Xihua couldn’t help but voice her curiosity, "Huh, he went out that way without getting hurt?"
Nangong Xihua didn’t feel anything strange about the white mist.
However, according to the serendipity and secret cache information she had obtained, it specifically warned not to leave through the valley exit!
Otherwise, it would be a dire situation of nine deaths and one life.
Now seeing the Desert Elder leave through the white mist entrance without any disturbance, Nangong Xihua couldn’t help but doubt.
Was the information she obtained also half-true, half-false?
"Forget it, since he ran away, let’s first collect all the herbs in your second medicine garden."
Shaking his head lightly, Lu Ye withdrew his gaze.
In his perception, the trace of the Desert Elder was long gone.
However, the white mist was indeed strange.
When Lu Ye sent his Spiritual Sense into the white mist, he also discovered that his Spiritual Sense encountered great resistance in the white mist, making the detectable range not as wide as usual.
A quarter of an hour later.
After Nangong Xihua finished gathering the medicine garden, Lu Ye immediately took out the Starfall Spirit Sword.
He led Nangong Xihua to the stone platform and placed the Starfall Spirit Sword into it...
In an instant, the light of an array enveloped both of them.
Seeing this, Lu Ye did not forget to take back this Spirit Sword.
In the next moment, the two were transported away once more.
And with this transport, the stone disk upon the stone platform finally showed signs of strain, with faint cracks appearing on it.
...
After an unknown amount of time, the surroundings became clear once again.
Two figures unexpectedly fell from the sky.
The powerful sense of weightlessness prevented both from adjusting their postures in mid-air.
One of the figures seemed much stronger and managed to forcefully adjust before landing.
But the other figure was not as lucky and fell face-first onto the grass with a thud.
"Ah!"
A light cry of pain immediately escaped from the mouth of the woman who had fallen.
Lu Ye stood calmly beside Nangong Xihua, seeing her fall onto the grass, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
This fall... must have been quite painful.
Nangong Xihua hurriedly got up from the ground, looking at Lu Ye, who had an odd expression. She couldn’t help but blush.
Glancing around at the surroundings, Nangong Xihua exclaimed in surprise, "Where is this place?"
Lu Ye looked around and found it was a lush, unfamiliar environment.
"Let’s go out first; once we find a town or other people, we’ll know where we are."
With that, Lu Ye walked out of the grassland first.
Seeing this, Nangong Xihua quickly took the opportunity while Lu Ye was not noticing her to gently rub the sore spot from the fall, trying to alleviate the pain, and then followed him.
Their speed was swift, about half an hour later they found a village with dozens of households.
After inquiring, they learned that this was still in the Southern Territory, but near its edge.
Just a little further, it would be the Northern Boundary, making this transfer location shorten their journey a bit for Lu Ye and his companion.
"Lucky, we are very close to the Northern Boundary. Are you returning with me?" Nangong Xihua turned around, asking Lu Ye.
