Chapter 594: Heaven's Reward

Returning to Fox Fairy Valley, the mood is completely different.

"This is Fox Fairy Valley, it's pretty." Feng Yuechan stood in the air, overlooking the bottom.

In terms of scenery alone, Fox Fairy Valley is indeed good. After all, it is the place where fox demons have lived for a long time, how can it be bad, but it is still inferior to the spiritual land.

Accustomed to the beautiful scenery of the spiritual land, the evaluation of Fox Fairy Valley in Feng Yuechan's eyes is just pretty.

"What are you going to do here, little junior brother?" Li Baxian asked.

"There is a place that I am a little concerned about." Lu Ye said, leading the way, and several people followed.

After a while, they arrived at a place covered by a large formation.

Li Baxian thought: "Is this... a forbidden place?"

Although he and Lu Ye stayed in Fox Fairy Valley for more than a month, he had heard of the name of the forbidden place. More than one cultivator told him that he could go anywhere in Fox Fairy Valley, but there were only two places he couldn't go.

One is the sleeping palace of the fox demon, which cannot be entered without summoning.

The other is the forbidden place located in the deepest part of Fox Fairy Valley.

At least there is a chance to enter the fox demon's bedroom, but no one in the entire Fox Fairy Valley knows what the situation is here. Even Xie Yunhan, who was in charge of the entire Fox Fairy Valley formation before, doesn't know, because this is a clear order from the fox demon. No one is allowed to set foot here, even if they are close to a hundred feet.

Li Baxian understands why Lu Ye came back.

To be honest, he is also somewhat interested in this forbidden area. The unknown can arouse curiosity.

Lu Ye stood in front of the formation, his eyes were blessed with insight into the spiritual patterns, and he looked at the nodes of the formation. After a while, he raised his hand and shot out a few formation flags.

The last time he came here, he relied on his attainments in the formation to sneak into the formation, so he didn't cause any damage to the formation, but this time it was unnecessary.

Strictly speaking, the strength of the formation here is not high, and it is not difficult for him to crack it.

One by one, the formation flags were shot out and embedded in the nodes. Lu Ye raised his hand and pressed on the formation. As his spiritual power was urged, the spiritual power on the light curtain of the formation flowed slower and slower until it completely stagnated.

The weapon box on the waist hummed, and nine streams of light shot out one after another, blasting towards a certain part of the formation.

Accompanied by a crackling sound, as if a mirror was broken, spider web-like cracks immediately appeared on the formation, and after three breaths, it was completely broken.

The place covered by the formation also appeared in the vision of several people.

A lonely grave, an ancient altar.

"Why is there a grave here?" Feng Yuechan curiously stepped forward to investigate, only to see a tombstone standing in front of the grave, with a line of large characters on the tombstone.

"The tomb of the master Lei Zhengyin?" Feng Yuechan whispered softly.

"This Lei Zhengyin should be the original master of the fox demon, but for some reason he was killed by the violent giant ape, so the fox demon started the revenge plan twenty years ago, and has been collecting monks all these years until today." Lu Ye explained casually.

Li Baxian seemed to be thinking: "Junior brother, have you been here before?"

Lu Ye said: "I sneaked in out of curiosity once, and happened to meet the fox demon here to mourn, and heard something."

"I see." Li Baxian nodded.

"This tomb was made by the fox demon, nothing special, I care about this altar." Lu Ye said as he stepped forward and walked to the altar, "Brother, Sister Feng, can you tell what this altar is used for?"

Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan walked forward together and looked carefully. After a long while, Li Baxian shook his head and said: "I can't tell, but it has four grooves, which should be used to place spirit stones. Maybe if enough spirit stones are placed, something can be opened."

"Open what?"

"Secret realm?" Feng Yuechan made a bold guess.

As soon as the words came out, Lu Ye and Li Baxian became interested. If this altar can really open some secret realm, it must not be missed.

There are many secret realms in the Yunhe battlefield, so Feng Yuechan's suspicion is very likely to come true.

"Give it a try!" Lu Ye said excitedly.

At this moment, the four people took a corner each, took out the spirit stones from the storage bag, and placed them in the groove.

A shocking scene appeared. The middle-grade spirit stones were just placed in the groove, and the spiritual power in them was drained in a very short time, turning into waste stones.

After absorbing the spiritual power of the spirit stones, the complex patterns on the surface of the altar slightly lit up a small area. Such an area only occupied a tiny part of the entire altar, but it made Lu Ye and his friends' eyes light up.

They looked at each other and took out more spirit stones to place in the groove.

The spirit stones turned into waste stones, and the spiritual power was drained by the altar. The range of the illuminated patterns on the altar became larger and larger.

Until a certain moment, when the four people consumed a full thousand middle-grade spirit stones, the surface of the altar shone brightly, and all the patterns were completely lit up.

At the same time, Lu Ye felt a slight heat on the back of his hand. He looked down and saw the golden mark on the back of his hand suddenly flashed out, turned into a golden light, and fell into the altar.

In an instant, there was only dazzling golden light in front of him, which made people unable to see.

After several breaths, when Lu Ye and others' vision recovered, an elliptical golden light curtain appeared in front of them.

"Junior brother, what was that just now?" Li Baxian asked in doubt.

The golden mark on the back of Lu Ye's hand suddenly fell into the strange scene on the altar. He saw it clearly, but he didn't know what the golden mark was and why it fell on the altar.

Lu Ye reacted.

It turned out that this was the reward given by the secret of heaven!

He had seen the golden mark before, which was the same as the one he had obtained in the hunting ground last time, and thought he needed to find a pillar of heavenly secrets to check the harvest, but he did not expect that the golden mark was actually used to activate the altar.

In this way, even if the people from Fox Fairy Valley returned here, found the altar, and placed enough spiritual stones, they would not be able to activate the altar without his mark.

"The reward from heavenly secrets was given to me after I killed the fox demon before." Lu Ye explained simply.

Li Baxian was extremely shocked: "For killing the fox demon, heavenly secrets gave a reward?"

This kind of thing was unheard of.

Lu Ye told Li Baxian his previous conjectures and the words the fox demon said before dying. Li Baxian nodded and said, "So, Junior Brother, killing the fox demon has indeed eliminated a major scourge on the Yunhe battlefield, which is a blessing to the area. It is understandable that Tianji gave you a reward."

Feng Yuechan's expression moved slightly: "Since it is a reward from Tianji, it must be good. Junior Brother Lu, good people are really rewarded."

Lu Ye laughed. His main purpose in killing the fox demon was to save Li Baxian. If Li Baxian had not been enslaved by the fox demon, he would have run away secretly. Now that he has encountered so many things, it can be regarded as a coincidence.

Feng Yuechan looked at the golden light curtain with a full gaze: "I wonder what's behind this?"

Li Baxian said: "You said it's good, there will definitely be no bad things, junior brother, go in and take a look?"

Lu Ye nodded, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Jujia, let the wolves guard the surroundings."

Jujia nodded, raised his hand to his mouth, and blew a loud whistle. The next moment, a large group of demon wolves led by the head wolf rushed over with great momentum.

Jujia drew a circle casually and said concisely: "Watch."

The wolves immediately separated to the left and right and surrounded the surroundings.

Lu Ye was amazed. Although he had a good relationship with the wolves before, he could never do it as easily as Jujia.

"Jujia, explore the way!" Lu Ye ordered.

Although this is a reward from Tianji, there is a high probability that there is no danger, but it is still better to be careful in everything.

Among the few people, Jujia has the strongest physique, so it is naturally better for him to lead the way.

Without saying a word, Ju Jia took a big step and walked towards the golden light curtain. After a few steps, he came to the golden light curtain and plunged into it without hesitation.

Lu Ye's eyes did not move for a moment, and he saw a layer of ripples on the golden light curtain, and then swallowed the figure of Ju Jia completely.

Lu Ye followed Ju Jia closely, and then Feng Yuechan and Li Baxian followed behind.

Stepping into the golden light curtain, he instantly entered another world, but this world was hazy. Ju Jia, who came in first, was not far ahead, but under the hazy fog, Lu Ye could not see his figure clearly, only vaguely saw an outline.

Lu Ye stood still, his eyes showing surprise.

Just because the surrounding environment gave him a very familiar feeling.

Li Baxian's low cry came from behind him: "Heavenly Secret Baptism?"

Among the four people present, except Ju Jia who had never been on the Lingxi List, the remaining three had all been on the Lingxi List, so they were naturally familiar with the monthly Heavenly Secret Baptism.

The baptism of the Heavenly Secret Reward will lead the cultivators on the Lingxi List to a completely independent and special environment. In that special environment, the cultivators' physique and mind will be tempered to a certain extent, thus strengthening.

It can be said that the future prospects of cultivators who have ascended to the Lingxi List are different from those who have not ascended to the Lingxi List.

Wei Que is at the ninth level of Yunhe, and Tan Sheng and Xia Liang are also at the ninth level of Yunhe. Moreover, without exception, all three of them have been promoted to the Yunhe Realm with 360 orifices. In comparison, Wei Que's ninth level strength is not as good as Tan Sheng and Xia Liang.

The most fundamental reason is that Tan Sheng and Xia Liang have ascended to the Lingxi List, and their rankings are not low.

Lingxi Realm is regarded as the initial realm of cultivators' cultivation, and it is also regarded as a realm that lays the foundation for the entire cultivation career. At this stage, being able to receive the baptism of the Heavenly Secret Reward will undoubtedly make the cultivator's foundation more solid and the future more promising. The higher the ranking on the Lingxi List, the greater the benefit of the Heavenly Secret Baptism.

When Lu Ye was in Lingxi Realm, he could basically only kill people by jumping one small level, but when he reached Yunhe Realm, jumping two small levels was not a difficult task. This was certainly related to the uneven strength of the cultivators in Yunhe Realm, but it might also be because of the benefits he gained from occupying the top spot in Lingxi. You must know that the higher the cultivator's level, the more difficult it is to kill enemies of higher levels, because the higher the level, the greater the increase in strength will be if you jump one small level.
