Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Seeing Jun Wu Xie's confidence, Jiu Ye and Uncle Bird couldn't help but remind him, "We know you are not what you used to be, and your strength has improved by leaps and bounds, but don't underestimate the enemy. After all, they have the advantage in numbers, and we only have three disciples from the Sect King Academy."

Jun Wu Xie thought for a moment and said, "I'm not afraid of their numbers, but I'm worried that Xu Dao Ling and Kong Xu will become their primary targets. If the trial ground is really opened, can I go alone?"

"It's possible, after all, among the three of you, the Great River Sword Sect is most afraid of you growing up. If we insist on not letting Xu Dao Ling and Kong Xu participate, I don't think they will force it too much."

Jiu Ye said here, pondered slightly for a moment, and then changed the subject, "It's just that the trial ground is very special. Although participating in the trial this time is dangerous, it is also an opportunity."

"Wu Xie, we hope you can take care of your two junior brothers. Although they are talented, if they always stay on the Sect King Mountain to cultivate, they will be no different from flowers in a greenhouse. Moreover, they will miss many opportunities, and the gap between you will probably become larger and larger," Uncle Bird said earnestly.

Jiu Ye said, "If the three of you can come out of the trial ground alive, you will definitely be able to break through to the Cave Heaven Realm. This will only take a few days, at most ten days!"

"The trial ground can allow martial artists to cultivate so quickly?"

Jun Wu Xie was taken aback.

He is now at the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm, while Xu Dao Ling and Kong Xu are at the tenth transformation of the Qi Condensation Realm.

He is special, so let's not talk about him. The realm of Xu Dao Ling and Kong Xu is still half a step away from the Cave Heaven Realm.

The Cave Heaven Realm is a new major realm, requiring the construction of a Qiankun Cave Heaven within the body. This requires martial artists to condense their essence and energy to an extremely pure level, otherwise it will easily fail.

Generally speaking, breaking through a major realm often takes a long time, basically several times longer than breaking through a small realm.

Jiu Ye is so confident!

At most ten days, and they can break through to the Cave Heaven Realm?

"Of course!" Jiu Ye's eyes sparkled, and he said, "You wouldn't be so surprised if you knew what the trial ground was."

He said that the trial ground is a special underground space discovered thousands of years ago, with countless passages inside, like a maze.

In that underground space, there is a rich aura of the earth. At the same time, there are mysterious cracks in that space, which are unknown to connect to what place.

From those cracks, baleful aura overflows all year round.

These baleful auras give rise to some "spirits", which absorb and devour the earth's spiritual energy, transforming into various forms of fiendish spirits.

Fiendish spirits are condensed from baleful aura and spiritual energy, and their strength is extremely strong. However, if they can be killed, the baleful aura of the fiendish spirit can be shattered, and the spiritual energy can be stripped from it.

When the baleful aura of the fiendish spirit is shattered, it will launch a final counterattack, wrapping the spiritual energy and pouring it into the body of the creature that killed it.

In this way, the person who kills the fiendish spirit can obtain the earth's spiritual energy purified by the fiendish spirit, without having to refine it again. It can be directly integrated and incorporated into the dantian or cave heaven, becoming their own true energy.

This process is dozens or hundreds of times faster than martial artists refining resources for cultivation!

"So that's how it is..."

Jun Wu Xie was a little surprised. There are really too many strange things in the cultivation world that he didn't know about before.

It seems that the trial ground is really a good place.

"The trial ground can be said to be a holy land for cultivation for low-level martial artists, but it is also extremely dangerous," Jiu Ye explained, "The fiendish spirits themselves are extremely strong and like to live in groups. Talented martial artists, in a one-on-one situation, will hardly gain an advantage. Even if they go together, there is a high probability that they will be killed by the fiendish spirits."

"Furthermore, after killing a fiendish spirit, one will inevitably be contaminated with this baleful aura. One must wait until all the baleful aura is refined or expelled before killing other fiendish spirits, otherwise the baleful aura will devour the mind, and the consequences will be disastrous."

Jun Wu nodded and said, "I understand. Participating in the trial is indeed an opportunity for the two junior brothers to quickly improve their realm. Don't worry, with me here, I will definitely ensure that they come back alive."

"We know your strength, but you must not be careless this time," Jiu Ye said solemnly, "The trial ground has not been opened for thousands of years. This time, the Qingtian Sword Sect suddenly agreed to open the trial ground, and there must be a purpose."

"It is impossible for them to only respond to the request of the Great River Sword Sect; they must have their own desires. It is said that more than a thousand years ago, a guardian of the Qingtian Sword Sect delved deep into the trial ground for some reason, and never returned. Later, the Qingtian Sword Sect sent people to search several times, but there were no results."

"Jiu Ye, what do you mean?"

A gleam flashed in Jiu Ye's eyes, and he said, "I suspect that the Qingtian Sword Sect wants to find the Heart of the Sword King this time!"

"What is the Heart of the Sword King?"

"More than a thousand years ago, the Sect King Realm guardian of the Qingtian Sword Sect was a Sword Dao Sect King. If such a strong person is in an environment with extremely abundant spiritual energy, it is possible to condense their lifelong sword dao into an energy crystal before death. This crystal is called the Heart of the Sword King. If they can obtain the Heart of the Sword King, the Qingtian Sword Sect can promote a new Sword Dao King in the Sect King Realm within a year!"

Jun Wu Xie's heart skipped a beat, and he said to Jiu Ye, "If the Heart of the Sword King is in your hands, can you use it to become a Sword King?"

Jiu Ye's eyes were immediately filled with hope and longing, and his eyes were particularly bright.

But then, the light in his eyes dimmed, and he said somewhat desolately, "Just thinking about it is enough. Not to mention that the Heart of the Sword King is impossible to fall into our hands, even if we have the Heart of the Sword King, this old man's body is impossible to break through to the Sect King Realm..."

Hearing him say this, Uncle Bird couldn't help but sigh.

"Why is it impossible?"

Jun Wu Xie felt that Jiu Ye and Uncle Bird seemed to be hiding something from him.

"A hundred years ago, I and my junior uncle had an accident when we went to get the Spring of Life. My junior uncle was hit by the Ice Beast in order to save me, and there has always been a wisp of cold energy in his body, which is difficult to refine and expel. This is also the reason why your Jiu Ye has to drink every day."

"My junior uncle's wine is a fiery wine soaked in Fiery Sun Pills, used to suppress the cold energy. Because of the existence of the cold energy, my junior uncle's realm has not improved in the slightest for a hundred years..."

"Old man, you're so miserable..."

Jun Wu Xie didn't expect that Jiu Ye had always had a hidden illness.

But the corner of his mouth curled up in a smile.

This made Jiu Ye and Uncle Bird look inexplicable.

Is this kid gloating?

"Don't look at me like that. It's just that there is cold energy in the body, what's the big deal?" Jun Wu Xie said, shaking a few seeds from the Fiery Sun Flower, took one and handed it to Jiu Ye, and said, "Take a look, can this thing refine the cold energy in your body?"

"Kid, if the cold energy in your Jiu Ye's body was so easy to expel, how could it have remained until today?" Uncle Bird shook his head and said, "How high-grade can your flower seeds be? Let me tell you, unless it's a seven-star high-grade or above..."

His voice stopped abruptly.

His eyes widened, and the golden light blooming from the Fiery Sun Flower seeds was reflected in his pupils, and he swallowed hard.

And Jiu Ye was already stunned, his lips trembling, and his body trembling slightly.

"This... what is this?"

Jiu Ye and Uncle Bird said in unison, their voices trembling slightly.

The sunflower seed-like thing in Jun Wu Xie's hand exuded an incomparably rich Fiery Sun energy. This Fiery Sun energy was too pure, beyond imagination!

"Fiery Sun Flower seeds, Saint-grade!"

Jun Wu Xie smiled brightly. Cold energy is a small matter. What kind of cold energy can't be solved by Saint-grade Fiery Sun Flower seeds?

Qin Keqing's Nine Yin Extinct Meridian disease can be treated with Fiery Sun Flower seeds, let alone the cold energy left in Jiu Ye's body by the Ice Beast.

"Wu Xie, are you sure this is for me?"

Jiu Ye stammered a little.

He has traveled all over the world in his life, searching for spiritual essences, and can be considered knowledgeable, but at this moment, his whole heart is trembling.

Saint-grade!

He wouldn't even dare to think about this kind of thing!

Not to mention a grandmaster like him, even the peerless powerhouses in the Saint Sect Realm in this world would not dare to say that they can take out Saint-grade treasures!

Saint-grade is something that can only be encountered by chance!

With this kind of thing, not only can the cold energy in his body be expelled, but also the Yang energy lost over the years can be replenished, and he will definitely break through the realm in a short time.
