Just when Sima You Yue was leading the people out to attack, Sima You Lin and the others had finished their closed door cultivation as well.
Sima You Lin was the first one to emerge. He had risen by three levels during these nine over months, to achieve the rank of fourth ranked spirit Saint.
Sima You Lan was around that level. She was still quite a distance and blocked from leaving fourth rank.
Sima You Yang had become a third ranked spirit saint.
The other Sima clansmen had also entered the ranks of spirit saint.
After they had fully absorbed all the spiritual qi in the cave, the few of them finally opened their eyes.
I never thought that the spiritual qi here would be completely absorbed by us.
Sima You Qing exclaimed.
Not bad, everyone grew quite a bit stronger.
Sima You Yang said with a smile.
We’ve all entered the rank of spirit saint.
Sima You Ming and the others were ecstatic as well. Their gains this round had been huge.
After asking the contracted beasts who were standing guard for them, they finally knew that they had actually been shut in here for over ten months.
Over ten months.
Sima You Lin’s eyebrows raised slightly,
Never thought that we would actually take such a long time in closed door cultivation. Right now, there’s only two more months left before we leave. We should look for You Yue and the others.
Hey, there’s a pile of bones over there.
Sima You Qi called out.
Everyone looked over to where he was looking at. At the deepest part of the cave lay a white pile of bones, in whatever remained of the spirit qi lake. It was only because they had almost drained that lake dry that the pile of bones emerged.
Could this be the one who had set up the array back then?
He asked with curiosity.
This person must not have left the little world before it closed, for whatever reason, and finally died of old age here.
Sima You Qing guessed.
I don’t think so.
Sima You Ran said,
If he died of old age, he would not have created such a complex array so close by.
The spiritual Qi seems to be coming here.
Sima You Yang said.
Everyone immediately sensed their surroundings, and it was just as he said. The spiritual qi was gushing here.
What could it be that’s attracting the spiritual qi?
Sima You Qing was incredibly curious,
It couldn’t be that the skeleton is the one attracting all the spiritual qi, right?
Rubbish! How could this be possible!
Sima You Yang rapped her lightly on her head.
Looks like we’ve come across a treasure this time.
Sima You Lin said as he walked over to the skeleton. He carefully lifted the already tattered strips of cloth, as a pearl the size of a fist appeared in front of everyone.
What is this thing?
Sima You Ming asked what everyone was thinking.
Not a clue. However, this has something to do with the spirit qi lake.
Sima You Lin said.
Looks like this pearl has some uses in attracting the spiritual qi. If we use this pearl to cultivate, our efforts in cultivating will definitely halve.
Sima You Ran said.
Hehe, once we get out of here and present this item to our clansmen to help in their cultivation, our clan will definitely outgrow the other clans.
Sima You Yang said.
Keep it away first. After we get out, we’ll give it to Clan Leader.
Sima You Lin said.
Right now, we’ll go look for You Yue and the others.
Okay.
You Lin, quickly take a look how far You Yue is from us?
Sima You Qing suggested.
Sima You Lin took out the jade. The two red dots were pretty small, showing that the two people were currently very far from each other.
Looks like we have to fly there if we want to look for them.
Sima You Yang said.
It’s a good thing we have many flying beasts. They’re pretty quick too. If we fly through the night, we shouldn’t take too long.
Sima You Ming said.
Let’s go look for them now, then.
Wait up.
Sima You Lin called out to stop them.
What’s up, You Lin?
Everyone looked at him. He waved at them, then turned to the skeleton and gave a huge bow, saying,
Many thanks to our senior for leaving this chance to us. We have no way to return the favour, so we will bury your body to rest.
As he did this, everyone followed after him and bowed.
Sima You Lin rose, then led everyone out. However they did not bury the body.
You Lin?
Sima You Qing looked at Sima You Lin.
Sima You Lin didn’t say anything and headed outside. He began to disable the array and kept the borrowed spirit stones away. Once the array was completely disabled, everyone slowly felt the mist enveloping the peak of the mountain was gone.
Standing in front of the mountain, Sima You Lin bowed once more. Then, he released a burst of spirit energy and attacked the mountain peak. After a few attacks, the mountain collapsed. The bulging mountain became like a huge grave.
Let’s go.
He called out his spirit beast and took everyone to the direction that Sima You Yue was in.
Countless of miles away, Sima You Yue was currently leading the Divine Devil Valley’s men in battle against a group of people. Those people were the partners of Cloud Cave and Sage Pavilion, but their numbers were not few.
The battle went completely as expected. However, Sima You Yue and the others had obtained a surprising piece of news from the mouths of the other party.
When the Sage Pavilion and Cloud Cave’s men found out that the Divine Devil Valley’s men were retaliating, they had called over a few people who were rather strong. They had at least ten thousand people waiting to stand off against them.
When Sima You Yue heard this, she pursed her lips, lamenting,
The ancients spoke rightly. This world lacks everything except people!
After hearing her complaint, Yun Yi and the others smiled, saying,
A lot of continents have come this time. If ten thousand come from each, there’s eighty thousand people. It’s not exaggerated to know they’ve gathered ten thousand people.
Then why don’t we have that many people?
Sima You Yue looked at her own troops. Apart from the Yun clan, Hao clan, Divine Devil Valley and Moon Bow’s clansmen, only the few of them from the Yi Lin continent remained.
There are many reasons.
Shen Rao explained,
Sage Pavilion is different from other powers. They have many pavilions in the worlds below. Furthermore, they are also very highly ranked. Many of the people from those continents yield to them. Since the Sage Pavilion’s men are gathering people now, it’s natural that those from the Sage Pavilion will follow after them.
Furthermore,news of the Sage Pavilion having a Sacred Beast has circulated around the entire little world. Everyone knows that it’s pretty much settled with a sacred beast. The people from the Sage Pavilion and Cloud Cave are merely the icing on the cake. They merely want to join in the fun.
Yun Feng said.
Sigh, everyone knows to expand their power in the worlds below. How could you guys stick to just these places?
Sima You Yue sighed.
This probably has something to do with method of cultivation later on.
Qiao Ya said,
I heard Master say before that Sage Pavilion’s method seems to be able to rise in rank from the power of belief. The more believers they have, the stronger they become. That’s why they have to keep expanding the people below.
Since the relationship between Sage Pavilion and Divine Devil Valley isn’t too good, how did my senior brother become the Holy Son?
Sima You Yue didn’t understand.
Furthermore, this guy wasn’t the average holy son. His position in the Sage Pavilion was rather high.
Yun Yi shook his head, saying,
We don’t know either. We heard that the Pavilion Master from the Sage Pavilion personally came to the Divine Devil Valley to recruit him.
