Asura Continent

On the central continent, in the center of the only planet known as Earth Light, there were three seas. One of them was connected to the southern continent.

The vast sea stretched as far as the eye could see. From time to time, waves could be seen, one higher than the other.

The group flew on the surface of the sea for more than ten hours before arriving at a continent. The continent in front of them was much smaller than the Eastern Continent. Rather than calling it a continent, it was more like an island of a giant star. The size of the island was about the same as the Western Chu Nation. This was once a holy land of the cultivation world, and only experts with extremely high cultivation would be able to come here and leave Earth Light Star through the Divine Spirit Palace.

However, following Zhang Kuang's use of that sacred art, everything changed. All of the experts' clones left the Divine Spirit Hall, and they wouldn't be able to return for a while. The internal structure of the Divine Spirit Hall had undergone a huge change. Because under the trend of benefits, everyone wanted to master this place that was once incomparably mysterious. Everyone knew that there was a powerful forbidden technique inside the Divine Spirit Hall.

The Divine Spirit Hall was the only center of the northern part of the continent. There was only a plain in that area, and on the plain was a huge city. The city was shocking in size, and the city walls were hundreds of thousands of meters high. In the center of the city was a grand hall. This was the mysterious Divine Spirit Hall, the place where the strong gathered.

But now, because of the departure of the strong, this place had become much more desolate. Even the number of cultivators in the city had become sparse. As for the reason, most people knew. Of course, this didn't affect foreign cultivators from coming here. After all, this was once a holy land, and everyone wanted to see what a holy land looked like.

By the time Lu Yang and the rest arrived, the sky had already darkened. Initially, they wanted to enter the city, but the city was closed and they could only rest outside for the night. Everyone walked to the forest outside the city. Just as they finished setting up their tents, a cultivator walked over. That cultivator was a middle-aged man in his thirties. His cultivation level wasn't low, and he had already reached the Spirit Severing stage.

The middle-aged man walked up to Lu Yang and the others, clasped his hands in a friendly manner, and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist, you want to enter the city as well?"

"We are prepared to meet the legendary Holy Land." As the saying goes, good, extended his hand to not hit a smiling person, Lu Yang also politely replied.

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I advise you not to go. The current Divine Spirit Hall is no longer the sacred ground of the past. At this point, he paused and glanced at Han Ruoxue and the others. He hesitated for a moment, but didn't finish his words.

Lu Yang's brows twitched as he asked, "What happened in the city?"

"You really want to know?" The middle-aged man said.

Lu Yang nodded his head and said sternly, "Speak your mind, and we will prepare."

"Since that's the case, then let me tell you this: the Divine Spirit Hall is controlled by a strong power, and the person in power is a young man. This person is extremely lustful, and with so many beauties by your side, if you bring them there, it will bring about a fatal disaster." The middle-aged man said, "I know that your cultivation base is not low, but your hands are unable to withstand four punches. I suggest that you give up on the idea of going."

Hearing this, Lu Yang had a good impression of him and said, "How should I address you, fellow cultivator?"

"I don't remember my name anymore. They all called me Demon King Liu. What do you think? That's a good name, right?" Demon King Liu laughed, seemingly shocked by this name.

Lu Yang smiled and immediately asked, "Fellow's name is indeed good. Since we can't go inside the city, where does Fellow want to go?"

"The world is vast, and there is always a place where I can cultivate. Why stay here?" Demon King Liu said, "I heard that a genius cultivator appeared in the Eastern Continent and reached the Spirit Transformation Stage in just a few hundred years. I am preparing to go to the Eastern Continent to meet that cultivator, and I want to gain some cultivation experience. "

"We came from the Eastern Continent. I've heard of that cultivator, and we've met him before." Lu Yang felt that it was fated to meet the other party and decided to give him some pointers.

"Oh!" You know that cultivator, I heard his name is Lu Yang, is that right? " Demon King Liu was extremely excited, wishing he could hug Lu Yang and kiss him.

Lu Yang nodded his head and said noncommittally, "He once told me that the path of cultivation is about perseverance and comprehension. Only with perseverance will one day be able to comprehend the Heavenly Dao."

"Heaven's Path?" Demon King Liu was startled and subconsciously asked, "We say that they are cultivators, but in reality, they are all cultivators. Just what is Dao?"

"Where is the Dao? The Dao is beneath my feet." Lu Yang said with a straight face, "The Heavenly Dao can reward you."

Demon King Liu seemed to have understood something. He cupped his hands towards Lu Yang and said gratefully, "Thank you fellow cultivator. Junior understands."

"I wish you a breakthrough in your cultivation." Lu Yang laughed.

"I'm going to find a place to cultivate and perhaps break through to the next stage. Demon King Liu was really grateful towards Lu Yang and said, "Fellow, if you don't have the ability, you'd better not enter the city."

Before Lu Yang could say anything, Han Ruoxue couldn't help but ask, "Fellow Daoist, you're not going to the Eastern Continent?"

"I'm not going. The legendary expert is definitely not ordinary. Senior's words just now made me feel a lot more excited. Even if I saw that senior Lu Yang, I'm afraid that I would not be able to comprehend his realm. After all, the difference is too big." Demon King Liu cupped his fists at the crowd and left.

Seeing the other's disappearing figure, Han Ruoxue couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. "Husband, just what game are you playing?"

"This person is kind-hearted, and has told us so much. I want to help you." Lu Yang answered.

"Screech!" Since when did my husband have such good intentions!? I seem to have heard you say that you and senior Lu Yang have met once, is that true? " Han Ruoxue's big watery eyes looked unblinkingly at Lu Yang.

Lu Yang froze for a moment, then realized that he had been ridiculed, and said, "We have indeed met once. If you guys want to become his women, I can help you …"

"Humph!" Han Ruoxue glared at Lu Yang and said angrily, "No need, I'm not interested in him at all!"

Dong Ling'er smiled as she walked over. "I need to ask senior to introduce her to my youngest daughter."

Hearing this, everyone laughed. Lu Yang waved his hand and said, "It's getting late, let's rest early!"

It was a silent night. Early the next morning, the sky had just turned white when the city was opened.

They arrived at the east gate of the city. The guards looked at them and one of them said, "Report your cultivation to enter the city."

"Darknorth Continent, Five-Fire stratum." Lu Yang answered.

The cultivator looked at Lu Yang, then looked at Han Ruoxue and the rest of the women before waving his hand and saying, "Go in!"

When Lu Yang and the rest entered the city, they saw a group of patrolling cultivators quickly walk over and pass by them. These people were all Aurous Core stage cultivators. Their robes were exactly the same as the cultivators on guard. They were all grey and had a palm-sized "Forest" embroidered on their chests. It was obvious that they came from the same family.

"Lin Clan?" Lu Yang looked at Lin Li beside him and subconsciously asked, "Do you know of the Lin Family?"

Lin Li's body trembled. He immediately laughed bitterly and said: "If I said I didn't know him, would you believe me?"

Zhang Yue knew Lin Li very well. He could tell that the relationship between Lin Li and the Lin Family was not ordinary and he said: "What exactly happened? Are you also a member of the Lin Family?"

"It used to be, but now it isn't." "Don't forget, since I've left the Lin Family, I don't want to get involved with Lin Jia anymore. As long as they don't cause trouble for me, I won't take the initiative to find them …"

The crowd did not know what had happened to Lin Li. Since the person in question had already said so, Zhang Yue did not continue asking.

Under the gate of the eastern city, the cultivator that had entered the city with Lu Yang and the rest quietly left, heading straight for the Divine Spirit Hall.

Inside the Divine Spirit Hall, two young men were looking at the nine statues. One of them asked, "Third brother, what do you think of these statues?"

"Big Brother, these statues are so lifelike that they look as if they could come back to life at any moment." Third brother Lin Hai answered.

Lin Tao nodded his head and seriously replied, "It's said that these Nine Supremes Gods all come from the Darknorth Continent. It can be seen that there are some unknown secrets hidden there."

"Ever since the top treasure of the Darknorth Continent, the Nine Mystical Jade Wall, disappeared, there have been no secrets at all. I feel that the real secret lies in this Divine Spirit Palace. "I don't know why, but all the architects have left. This has given us a huge opportunity. If we can't find the secret in a short time, this plan will be a failure." Lin Hai said in a deep voice.

"You're right. If we can't find the secret and allow our cultivation to break through to the Divine Tribulation Realm, then we won't be able to defend against the attacks of the other clans of the Southern Viewing Continent." Lin Tao was also a little worried, "We can hold them down for a while, but we can't keep suppressing them. Once they join forces, the Lin Family will not be able to withstand them."

At this moment, the gatekeeper came into the hall and respectfully called out, "Eldest young master, third young master, your subordinate has something important to report …"

The two of them looked at each other and walked out of the hall. Lin Hai asked, "What is it?"

"Reporting to Third Young Master, just now, seven peerless beauties entered the city." The guard said.

Hearing this, the two of them were stunned. Lin Tao began to shine and said, "Are you sure about the seven peerless beauties?"

"Eldest Young Master, your subordinate definitely did not make a mistake." The guard said affirmatively.

"How are their figures, appearances, and cultivations?" Lin Tao asked three crucial questions in a row.

The guard answered truthfully: "She has an excellent figure and a beautiful appearance. Her cultivation should be around the Five-fire realm, around the Nascent Soul stage."

"Are you for real? How are those girls compared to Yuan Xiaoman?" Lin Tao clenched his fists tightly, unable to conceal the excitement in his heart.

"It's hard to tell the difference, and it might even be better." The guard said.

"Not bad, not bad, you made a great contribution this time." Lin Tao burst into laughter as he ordered, "Close the city gates and activate the array formation. Bring me to meet these ladies …"

Lin Hai's brows twitched as he hurriedly said, "Big brother, this isn't good, right?"

"What's wrong with that? You don't like beauties, so don't stop me." Lin Tao let out a cold snort and immediately shouted angrily at the guard, "Why aren't you closing the city gates?"

The guard hesitated for a moment before saying, "Eldest Young Master, one of the cultivators in that group looks very much like Second Young Master."
