Just as Lin Yi and Xiao Yan approached the Dan River, the crimson water surface suddenly exploded, and a slightly illusory fiery red figure flashed out like lightning, accompanied by an extremely sharp gust of wind that slammed into Lin Yi.
"clang!"
Before Lin Yi could make a move, Xiao Yan beside him had already slammed his staff into the fiery red figure.
"grumble!"
The iron rod struck the fiery red figure, which emitted a shrill scream.
Lin Yi looked up and saw that the attacker was a humanoid creature covered in fiery red scales, holding a trident, with bloodshot and ferocious eyes.
"This is... a Danling corpse?" Little Marten exclaimed in surprise as she stared at the strange creature.
Immediately afterwards, Little Marten also explained the origin of the Pill Spirit Corpse to Lin Yi.
Finally, Little Marten concluded, "Within this Dan River, there are countless Dan Spirit Corpses. It will be very difficult for you to absorb Nirvana Qi here."
Lin Yi smiled faintly and darted along the Dan River: "I received information that some ancient sects have left behind cultivation platforms on this Dan River. The formations there can dilute the Nirvana Qi in the Dan River and also protect against the disturbance of the Dan Spirit Corpse."
"Oh? There's such a nice place?" Little Mink was somewhat surprised to hear Lin Yi's words.
Lin Yi smiled and swiftly swept across the Milky Way, his gaze carefully scanning the river. Before long, he discovered an ancient platform, faintly visible amidst the swirling crimson aura of Nirvana.
Lin Yi's figure flashed, and he landed directly on the ancient platform.
“There are hidden formations on this cultivation platform. Once activated, they can form a powerful defense. This kind of place is specially prepared by ancient sects for their disciples to cultivate,” Lin Yi looked around and was satisfied with the scene.
“But before that, it seems we need to resolve some troubles…” Just then, Little Mink suddenly chuckled strangely.
As soon as Xiao Diao finished speaking, more than a dozen figures flew towards the training platform from not far away.
Lin Yi's gaze fell upon the dozen or so people who had appeared, all dressed in sky-blue robes with a pattern of a giant eagle soaring high on them.
"It's you!"
The leader's expression changed slightly when he saw Lin Yi on the cultivation platform.
"It seems you recognize me. This place is already occupied by me. You'd better find somewhere else!" Lin Yi glanced at the leading man and spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, the leading man's expression shifted uncertainly. After a long while, he said in a deep voice, "My Heavenly Eagle Dynasty and the Demon Rock Dynasty have some grudges. I heard that you wiped out Shi Kun and his gang from the Demon Rock Dynasty. Today, I'll give you face!"
"Brother Wang Lie..."
Upon hearing the words of the leading man, one of the men behind him spoke up somewhat unwillingly.
"Shut up, let's go!" The leader, Wang Lie, interrupted him sharply and ordered the people behind him.
Soon, the group departed in a grand procession.
From afar came the voice of the man named Wang Lie, "That kid killed Shi Kun in one move. Even if I'm stronger than Shi Kun, I'm not much stronger. And you guys are even less of a match. If you don't want to die, come with me to find other training platforms..."
Watching Wang Lie and the others leave, Lin Yi shook his head slightly, found the array hub, and activated the array on the cultivation platform.
"Next, I will attempt to break through to the Nirvana Realm here. Xiao Yan can also absorb the Nirvana Qi to consolidate and improve his strength. Xiao Diao, you keep an eye on things from the side."
After activating the formation, Lin Yi said to Xiao Yan and Xiao Diao.
"You can focus on your cultivation without worry," the little sable said casually, waving its paw.
Lin Yi nodded slightly, then sat cross-legged on the cultivation platform and closed his eyes to cultivate.
With a thought, a black hole rapidly expanded out from behind Lin Yi's head.
"Boom!"
As the black hole spread, a surge of devouring power erupted like a torrent. Then, Xiao Yan and Xiao Diao watched in astonishment as the dense Nirvana aura permeating the cultivation platform transformed into beams of crimson light, continuously flowing into the black hole behind Lin Yi's head.
"Whoosh!"
As the immense aura of Nirvana surged in, Lin Yi's clothes fluttered and rustled without wind, and faintly, tiny streaks of crimson light could be seen wriggling rapidly beneath his skin.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past two days, with the help of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, Lin Yi has been frantically absorbing the Nirvana Qi in the Dan River. If it were converted into Nirvana Pills, it would probably be more than two or three million!
Lin Yi originally possessed the Nirvana Golden Body, and after absorbing such a vast amount of Nirvana energy, he easily advanced to the Nirvana Realm.
However, Lin Yi did not end his cultivation there; he wanted to directly undergo the Nirvana Tribulation.
After successfully breaking through to the Nirvana Realm, Lin Yi consolidated his strength for over an hour. Once he had adjusted himself, his mind stirred, and the brilliant golden light suddenly receded. Then, a terrifying wave rapidly spread from his body.
Under such terrifying fluctuations, even Lin Yi's strong physique trembled violently, and wisps of white smoke rose from his skin.
The little sable retreated far away, clicking its tongue as it stared at Lin Yi, whose skin had turned red.
He knew that Lin Yi's body must have undergone a complete upheaval by now.
Indeed, this was the case. At this moment, a crimson flame of rebirth was emanating from within Lin Yi's body, as if it were about to burn Lin Yi's body to ashes.
However, at this moment, the stone talisman in Lin Yi's palm suddenly emitted a gentle white light, which gradually covered Lin Yi's entire body.
As the white light spread, Lin Yi's crimson body, which looked as if it were about to burn, quickly returned to some of its normal color.
With the help of the stone talisman, Lin Yi successfully passed his first Nirvana Tribulation and officially became a powerful expert in the First Nirvana Realm!
"call!"
Lin Yi exhaled a long breath, opened his eyes, and stood up.
"You've made it through?" Little Mink and Little Flame looked at Lin Yi with delight.
"Hmm," Lin Yi nodded with a smile, then said, "Let's go, we should continue deeper to retrieve the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill for you!"
Xiao Yan obeyed Lin Yi's every word.
Little Mink was naturally very much looking forward to it!
Immediately, Lin Yi took Xiao Yan and left the training platform, flying deep into the ancient secret realm.
As for the people waiting outside the cultivation platform, Lin Yi paid them no attention whatsoever.
Chapter 179 Anyone else have objections? [Please continue reading]
That day, Lin Yi and Xiao Yan were on their way when they suddenly heard some excited conversations coming from not far to their side. Although the voices were faint, Lin Yi still managed to hear them all.
"In the southwest direction, another complete sect ruin has appeared. The ruin is still protected by an energy shield. There's definitely something interesting inside!"
"I heard that three guys have already been lucky enough to obtain the sect's mark there, and they can enter the ruins at any time to receive the inheritance!"
"Oh? Who's so lucky?"
"It's funny, the three who obtained the sect mark actually came from a low-level dynasty called the Great Yan Dynasty. Now those three guys are trapped. As long as we force them to hand over the sect mark, we can enter the ruins and obtain the inheritance!"
"..."
Hearing their discussion, Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. The three people they were talking about were undoubtedly Mo Ling and his two companions. He hadn't expected them to be as unlucky as ever.
With a thought, Lin Yi appeared directly in front of the group of people. He grabbed with his large hand, and a surge of powerful Yuan energy roared out, creating pressure that suppressed the group of people.
"Where is the sect ruins you were talking about?" Lin Yi glanced at the group of people who looked horrified and asked calmly.
"A Nirvana Realm expert!"
Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Lin Yi, the group immediately gasped, exchanged glances, and quickly pointed in a direction.
"Thank you very much!"
Seeing this, Lin Yi casually dispersed the oppressive force and turned to leave.
Along the way, Lin Yi noticed that many figures were constantly rushing in from all directions, clearly all with the same goal.
Lin Yi had no intention of communicating with the others. He quickly traveled with Xiao Yan. About ten minutes later, a huge floating island suddenly appeared at the end of their line of sight.
On that island, there were faint, powerful energy fluctuations spreading outwards.
When Lin Yi brought Xiao Yan to the island, it was already bustling with activity. Figures hovered in the air like locusts, and the noisy sounds gathered together and eventually spread far and wide.
At this moment, almost all eyes on the island were focused in one direction: the center of this suspended island.
In the center stood an ancient hall, somewhat dilapidated, but still far better than the ruins Lin Yi had seen before.
In addition, a faint red glow emanates from inside the hall, enveloping it. This is likely the main reason why the hall has been able to remain intact despite the passage of time.
Enveloped in that red light, there stood a towering stone tablet, on which ancient and weathered characters were faintly visible.
"Qianyun Sect, one of the Alliance's Guardian Sects!"
Lin Yi had a general idea of the history of this ancient secret, knowing that this place was the site of the common ruins of the Heavenly Gang Alliance.
The Heavenly Gang Alliance consists of 108 sects, 16 Dharma Protector sects, 4 Mysterious Sects, and 4 Sect Halls.
This Qianyun Sect is one of the sixteen guardian sects!
When Lin Yi arrived, Mo Ling and the other two were surrounded by people from four advanced dynasties. They had no choice but to throw away the sect seals they were holding.
Upon seeing this, Lin Yi immediately took action without hesitation. With a casual wave of his hand, three sharp gusts of wind accurately struck the three sect seals.
The next instant, to everyone's astonishment, the three sect seals returned to Mo Ling and the other two.
"Who the hell are you? Get out here!"
Seeing the sect seal that was about to be obtained fly away again, the leaders of the four advanced dynasties immediately turned gloomy, and their angry shouts, mixed with killing intent, echoed across the island.
"The things of my Great Yan Dynasty are not something you can just steal as you please!"
A soft voice rang out, and then countless gazes instantly shifted, settling on the two figures that had appeared in mid-air at some unknown time.
"Lin Yi?!"
Upon seeing that familiar figure, Mo Ling and the other two exclaimed in surprise, their eyes immediately filled with joy and excitement.
"Are you Lin Yi?"
Upon hearing the voices of Mo Ling and the other two, a man dressed in blue from one of the four advanced dynasties recognized Lin Yi's face and his expression immediately changed slightly.
"Oh? This guy is Lin Yi, the one who wiped out Shi Kun and the others from the Demon Rock Dynasty? He doesn't seem that special..." Another leader of a high-level dynasty glanced at Lin Yi with a sneer and said.
The leaders of the remaining two advanced dynasties did not rush to speak; their expressions shifted, and it was unclear what they were thinking.
"Since these sect talismans have been obtained by my three friends, you should all leave to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings."
Lin Yi glanced around and spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the four men in blue robes slightly changed their expressions, and the man who had previously sneered flew into a rage:
"Kid, don't think you can be arrogant in this ancient secret realm just because you killed Shi Kun. Any one of us is stronger than Shi Kun, let alone the four of us!"
