That means being reverse-invaded is acceptable, but being reverse-invaded multiple times by the same plane is not; otherwise, the demon plane will truly face collapse.
"Hmph, the Douluo Continent, is it? Soul Masters, is it? How dare you invade the territory of the great Lord Alba? Then let you taste the flavors of hell!"
Alba stated that he had long since given up on suppressing the hellish passage there.
Seeing the Demon Lord retreat decisively, Yali and the other three looked grave.
"They took it so easily?"
Somewhat incredible.
According to their previous plan, establishing a base in the demon plane would require a huge price to pay, rather than simply demonstrating power comparable to the demon lord.
However, after a brief period of worry, they quickly directed many people from Shrek Academy's inner court to begin establishing strongholds in the surrounding area.
Soon, a soul-guided array covered an area of ten kilometers around the passage.
The energy of heaven and earth in this demon plane is too violent. If a soul master absorbs it directly, their meridians may be damaged if they are not careful.
The power of the Golden Ancient Tree spread out, affecting the environment of the area covered by the great formation. In particular, the violent factors in the energy of heaven and earth that permeated the environment were partially filtered out by the Golden Ancient Tree, making it safer for the Soul Masters to absorb it.
Although the energy of heaven and earth here is still more violent than that of Douluo Star, it is much milder than at the beginning.
Moreover, this power, which is more violent than the spiritual energy of Douluo Star, has a very obvious effect on tempering the body!
"Now, the power of the Golden Tree can quickly make up for it," Xu Yuan thought to himself.
Its power has even extended into the demon plane and can modify the environment to some extent; clearly, the Golden Tree can also absorb the energy here.
The power it previously gave to Xu Yuan and Tang Wulin consumed half of its accumulated power over ten thousand years.
Now that he's connected to the demon dimension, he'll recover quickly.
It's not that the Golden Tree's extraction of the Demon Plane's essence is particularly significant; so far, the Golden Tree has only absorbed and devoured the energy that has dissipated from the Demon Plane into the world.
The reason why the recovery effect is so obvious is also due to the method.
In the past, the Golden Tree accumulated its power by fulfilling its own 'job' responsibilities. Although it gathered the power of heaven and earth to create a very favorable environment for the entire Poseidon Island, the power it accumulated each year was actually limited.
This is why people can eat well and live well, but their savings don't grow slowly.
The energy absorbed and devoured from the demon plane is now entirely external, a direct plundering of its power.
Without the constraints of heaven and earth, it doesn't need to give back to its surroundings; whatever it devours becomes its income.
“Xiao Yuan, the environment in the Demon Plane is harsher than we imagined, but the benefits here also far exceed our expectations, so exploring the Demon Plane is of utmost urgency.”
Yali's expression was solemn.
Before the escaped demon lord could retaliate, they needed to quickly gather information and understand the situation in the demon plane.
Ever since Alba left so decisively, she had a bad feeling about it.
"The natural energy here has been modified by Elder Tree, making it incredibly effective for body refinement. However, exploring outside this area modified by Elder Tree requires enduring the most primal and violent impacts of natural energy. If you become distracted or injured while absorbing it, you may suffer a backlash."
"So, do I need to go explore with Wu Lin?" Xu Yuan didn't seem surprised.
There's an extra episode tonight, same as always, no need to stay up late, just watch it tomorrow morning.
Chapter 333 Exploration and Pioneering (Please subscribe!!! 10 more chapters added)
This demon dimension is a completely new world for the Shrek academy students.
All exploration begins from scratch.
The inner disciples had no experience exploring new worlds. Even the four elders had only come into contact with the Abyss, but had never explored it in depth, let alone experienced the era when the Abyss first invaded and they gradually gathered information about it.
However, everything proceeded smoothly in the early preparations.
"The energy of heaven and earth in the Demon Plane is too violent. Even Lan Muzi and Tang Yinmeng will suffer damage to their meridians when they absorb the energy of heaven and earth from the outside world."
Lan Muzi and Tang Yinmeng, who are the senior brothers and sisters of the inner courtyard, are the two with the best cultivation.
Yali began to speak slowly.
"In fact, according to our preliminary research, within a radius of ten kilometers, the energy of heaven and earth filtered by the ancient golden tree is gradually transforming their bodies. After cultivating for a period of time, they should be able to develop a preliminary resistance to the energy of heaven and earth here."
"By then, anyone at the Soul Saint level or above should no longer be bound by the energy of heaven and earth when exploring, but this will take time."
It doesn't mean that you have to absorb the energy of heaven and earth just because you say it.
If you don't integrate it into your body, don't refine it, and don't expose your most vulnerable meridians to the energy of heaven and earth, you will naturally not be affected.
However, in reality, this simply doesn't work.
Because it can't last long.
In an unfamiliar environment, it's instinctive to stay fully alert at all times.
Moreover, the Demon Dimension does not belong to the Soul Masters of Douluo Star.
Even around the passage, a Soul Master's Soul Power is constantly being lost, let alone in the outer areas.
Absorbing the energy of heaven and earth to restore one's own soul power is a basic survival need, so absorbing the energy of heaven and earth in the demon plane without injury has become a standard, a standard for going out to explore.
"Actually, Ryuji's meat buns are also quite useful. There are also three other food-type students whose martial spirits can restore the energy consumed by students who go out to explore, but they certainly can't go out to explore too far."
Ya Li recounted these events one by one and found that Xu Yuan was not surprised at all. She also realized that Xu Yuan should have guessed this long ago and was mentally prepared.
"Master's wife, don't worry. It was my suggestion to explore the Demon Plane. I am naturally duty-bound to do so."
"What about Wu Lin?" Ya Li asked hesitantly.
"I'll go talk to him."
Yali nodded, and after reminding Xu Yuan of some precautions, she returned to the passage to continue discussing with the other three elders the details of modifying the base environment and the subsequent expansion into the demon plane.
"Wulin."
Meanwhile, Xu Yuan also approached Tang Wulin.
At this moment, Tang Wulin is absorbing the energy of heaven and earth here to cultivate.
The energy varies across different planes, which is the result of the different exclusive laws governing each plane. However, the energy of most planes is universal.
For example, the primordial energy of the world in Douluo Continent is relatively mild and has a wide range of applications. Although the primordial energy of the world in the Demon Realm is violent, it is also extremely versatile. As long as one's physique is strong enough to resist its erosion, one can absorb and utilize it.
Moreover, the stimulation of energy from different dimensions is also a unique opportunity.
For example, at this moment, many students in the inner courtyard are actually trying to cultivate, partly to recover from the exhaustion of the previous battle, and partly to feel the energy of heaven and earth here.
When Xu Yuan woke him up, Tang Wulin was not angry, but rather very excited.
He had a vague suspicion as well.
"Wu Lin, here's the situation."
Xu Yuan gave a brief explanation and then asked Tang Wulin for his opinion.
"Brother Xu, don't worry, I also want to go out and explore." Tang Wulin grinned and readily agreed.
While the filtered energy of heaven and earth here is certainly more effective for tempering the body, Tang Wulin felt it wasn't enough. He felt that the more violent energy of heaven and earth outside would have a better effect on him.
Moreover, the great battle on Poseidon Island had been very rewarding for him, and Tang Wulin was now extremely interested in hunting demonic creatures and absorbing their life energy.
The Golden Dragon Spear can devour life energy, but it's not always easy for him to use it in the Douluo Continent. The large-scale killing of demonic creatures he just did was the most satisfying time Tang Wulin had ever experienced since he obtained the Golden Dragon Spear.
"Brother Xu, let's act alone."
Xu Yuan had no objection.
The two of them decided on a direction and, after consulting with Yali and the others, went out directly.
Other students also began to take action.
Xu Lizhi and three other food-type Soul Masters were recruited to prepare food constantly. First, they gave Lan Muzi and Tang Yinmeng enough food, and then distributed it to the other students according to their Soul Power levels.
With the food made by the food-type Soul Masters, Lan Muzi, Tang Yinmeng, and the others were able to leave the area affected by the Golden Ancient Tree.
Xu Yuan and his companion went directly into the Demon Dimension.
In just two and a half hours, Xu Yuan was already over a hundred kilometers away from the passage.
During this time, whenever he encountered demonic creatures, he would decisively take action and attempt to absorb their energy with his own abilities.
At this moment, without the blessing of the Golden Ancient Tree, the devouring ability of his Heavenly Origin Five Elements Spear was much weaker, but it was still an ability that belonged entirely to Xu Yuan himself.
As the number of times he devoured increased and his skills became more proficient, Xu Yuan's devouring ability gradually approached the state he had before when he was empowered by the Golden Ancient Tree.
"Ok?"
Xu Yuan sensed a powerful energy fluctuation and immediately restrained his soul power, becoming cautious.
His mental energy probed forward.
After two and a half hours of slaughter, he also gained a vague understanding of the strength of the creatures within the demon plane.
In fact, the demon legion that entered Poseidon Island at the beginning had a very clear division between strong and weak.
Organized legions generally have clear tiers in this regard.
By comparing the two, Xu Yuan divided demons into five levels.
The weakest are naturally those below the Soul King level, followed by those who can rival Soul Kings and Soul Emperors.
Above that level are those comparable to Soul Saints and Soul Douluos; Xu Yuan refers to this level as Demon Lords.
