Chapter 657: Dark Night Mountains

When he was about to return to the Yunyuan Empire, Su Chen finally had a halo around him, and he was promoted from the peak of the eighth level of the transformation realm to the ninth level of the transformation realm.

This time, the promotion of cultivation was entirely due to the fact that the true essence in Su Chen's true essence sea was too condensed, so it naturally promoted the breakthrough of cultivation, and Su Chen himself didn't even have to make any effort.

Since his cultivation broke through to the ninth level of the transformation realm, Su Chen was no longer polite and took out a red scale dragon fruit directly from the space ring.

This is one of the core resources obtained from Vice President Liu, a rare treasure of heaven and earth.

After taking the red scale dragon fruit directly, the hot feeling exploded in the stomach, and the extremely pure true essence was infused into the limbs and bones, and then flowed through the body and was collected into the true essence sea.

The cultivation level in the True Essence Sea also rose with the tide, from the beginning of the ninth level of the transformation realm, to the middle level of the ninth level, the late level of the ninth level, and then to the peak of the ninth level...

Finally, it was logical to break through to the tenth level of the transformation realm.

Huh!

Su Chen exhaled and opened his eyes that were shining with divine light.

At this moment, he felt that his body was surging with infinite power, and he was completely different from before the breakthrough.

"The core cultivation resources are indeed worthy of being core cultivation resources. The effect on the improvement of cultivation is incomparable to other cultivation resources."

If he was not worried about the unstable cultivation level due to the rapid progress, Su Chen would even want to take out another rare treasure of heaven and earth.

But in the end, he still resisted this idea. The consequences of unstable cultivation are very serious, and it may even take several times the energy to make up for it, which would not be worth the loss.

Looking out the car window, it has arrived at the border between the Yunyuan Empire and the other two empires.

Su Chen stared at the scenery outside the window. This area was a dark forest, and all the trees were a strange dark black, which was very different from the trees in other places.

Curious, Su Chen asked the driver: "What place is this?"

"Sir, this is the Dark Night Mountains." The driver replied.

"Dark Night Mountains?"

Su Chen muttered to himself, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere.

After a long while, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Could it be that place?"

He suddenly remembered that he had heard in his previous life that there was indeed a place called Dark Night Mountains in a no-man's land at the junction of the Yunyuan Empire and the other two empires.

And the reason why Su Chen had heard of the name of the Dark Night Mountains was mainly because he knew that someone in his previous life had obtained a high-level heaven and earth fire source in this Dark Night Mountains.

Su Chen was not very clear about the specific level of the fire source.

If the carriage had not just passed by this area, he would have almost forgotten about it.

"It's a good opportunity to take a look. If I'm lucky enough to find the source of fire, the little sky fire should be able to grow again."

Thinking this way, Su Chen paid the carriage fare, jumped off the carriage, and walked leisurely towards the Dark Night Mountains.

Walking into the Dark Night Mountains, he found that this area was very large, stretching for hundreds of kilometers, with mountains crisscrossing. It is really not an easy task to find a source of fire in such a large area.

This area belongs to the "no man's land". The three empires bordering it have not divided it as a territory, so this area is also very chaotic. Not only are monsters rampant, but there are also robbers from time to time.

However, for Su Chen, ordinary robbers are naturally not taken seriously by him. He chose a direction to walk, wanting to find a village or village with more people, to see if he could inquire about the location of the fire source indirectly.

Halfway through the journey, a group of people suddenly came towards them. The leader was a beautiful young woman, surrounded by five guards, and there were seven people carrying medicine baskets, looking like they were collecting medicine.

"Are you from the herb-collecting team?"

Su Chen only took a look and stopped paying attention.

But what surprised him a little was that the five guards in the herb-collecting team were all warriors of the second level of the Lingtai Realm.

For a "no man's land" located on the edge of three empires, these people have entered the Lingtai Realm, and their cultivation is really conspicuous. I don't know which empire they are from?

"Hey, young man!"

When this group of people passed by Su Chen, someone suddenly called Su Chen.

"Young man, you are alone? Why don't you join us and keep us company?"

The person who called Su Chen was not the young woman in the lead, but a warrior of the second level of the Lingtai Realm among the guards. He was a middle-aged man in his thirties with a dark complexion and a scar on his face.

Before Su Chen could answer, the young woman spoke unhappily: "Guard Li, I haven't spoken yet, and you invited people to join the team. Isn't that a bit presumptuous?"

Guard Li scratched his head and said: "Boss, didn't we agree before we set out that we need a total of seven guards, but now there are only five. As the captain of the guard team, I certainly have the authority to recruit the remaining two guards."
