In the deepest part of the ruins, in a broken mountain, a man was looking towards the direction of three caves in the distance. This man was none other than Morton, who chose to stay outside because he could not enter the caves.
Morton's eyes narrowed, a hint of worry appeared between his brows, and he muttered to himself, "It's been a month, why hasn't Brother Xuxing come out yet?"
It shouldn't take a month to explore a cave, after all, what's left in the cave are usually opportunities, and under normal circumstances, it can be explored in a few days. Even if the cave Yang Qi entered was left by a high-level martial emperor, a month should be enough. But now, almost a month has passed, and Yang Qi has no signs of coming out.
Thinking of this, Morton frowned slightly, and a thought flashed through his mind, "Could it be that Brother Xuxing had an accident in the cave?"
The caves in the ruins of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect are not absolutely safe either. Just like the Martial Emperor Realm cave they explored before, they were attacked as soon as they entered it. If they had not retreated in time, they would probably have died in it.
Once the restrictions in the cave left by a high-level Martial Emperor erupt, Yang Qi, a low-level Martial Emperor, will definitely not be able to resist it. Yang Qi has not come out for such a long time, the most likely possibility is that Yang Qi has been born.
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Morton's eyes, and he said slowly, "Wait a little longer. If Brother Xuxing doesn't show up, I'll have no choice but to leave."
A few days ago, Cheng Yu and the other person left. After they left, this ruins would probably be reported to the Black Xuan Sect soon. At that time, the Black Xuan Sect would definitely search for the entrance to the ruins and send more practitioners to look for opportunities.
The location where the entrance to the ruins appeared before was the territory controlled by the Black Xuan Sect. Once the Black Xuan Sect exerts its strength, it is entirely possible that the news will be blocked, and other practicing forces will not be able to get the news in a short period of time, and the same goes for the Qing Yuan Sect.
Although Morton brought Yang Qi to the ruins, he had no intention of concealing the news of the discovery of the ruins. After leaving, he would report it to Qingyuan Sect and let Qingyuan Sect intervene.
Now that Cheng Yu and the other person had already left, Morton naturally couldn't delay too long, so he decided to wait for a few more days. If Yang Qi didn't show up, he would have to leave first.
…
Yang Qi, who was in the formation, had no idea that Morton had already planned to leave first, but even if he knew, Yang Qi would not blame Morton. After all, he had not expected to come to this space before, and he could not ask Morton to wait for him all the time.
The practice during this period seemed to confirm Yang Qi's previous speculation that no soul appeared again. However, although the soul did not appear again, the accident still occurred.
Feeling the thoughts transmitted by the Dark Beetle, Yang Qi's brows slightly frowned, "Is the Dark Beetle about to break through?"
The Dark Beetle was originally at the peak of the one-star Martial Emperor, and was only one step away from the two-star Martial Emperor. Now, after absorbing enough essence in this space, the Dark Beetle is on the verge of a breakthrough, and can break through to the two-star Martial Emperor level at any time.
"Should we let the Dark Beetle break through?" Yang Qi's gaze fell on the Dark Beetle, but his mind was thinking rapidly.
The Dark Beetle's breakthrough to the Two-Star Martial Emperor would definitely cause quite a stir, which would be even louder than the noise of their cultivation, and would most likely attract other spirits from outside this area. Yang Qi's improvement during this period of peaceful cultivation was not small. If the Dark Beetle were to break through to the Two-Star Martial Emperor, he would probably return to the situation before where he would have to face spirits every once in a while, and his cultivation would definitely be disturbed.
But if the Dark Beetle is not allowed to break through, it will need to suppress itself and will no longer be able to absorb the origin. It has only been about a month since it entered this space, and there is more than a month left. Should it be allowed to suppress itself all the time
Besides, breaking through the two-star Martial Emperor in this space might be of greater help to the Dark Beetle. If it wasn't for the fact that it would take Yang Qi too long to break through the three-star Martial Emperor, and that once his body broke through, he couldn't stop and had no power to protect himself, he would have considered breaking through the three-star Martial Emperor here.
Now that the Dark Beetle had hope of a breakthrough, Yang Qi really couldn't bear to waste the Dark Beetle's chance of a breakthrough for himself. After all, in this kind of environment, there was only one chance for a breakthrough!
Yang Qi thought about it for a while, and soon made a decision. He looked at the dark beetle and said, "Breakthrough!"
This was the Dark Beetle's chance and opportunity. He didn't want the Dark Beetle, who had accompanied him all the way, to lose this opportunity because of him. He also didn't plan to practice here until the end of the eighty-one days. In the last period of time, he would try to hunt souls. If the Dark Beetle could break through to the two-star Martial Emperor, it would be of greater help to him. Therefore, after some consideration, Yang Qi decided to let the Dark Beetle break through to the two-star Martial Emperor.
Although he decided to let the dark beetle break through, Yang Qi still needed to make some preparations in advance. The first thing was to reinforce the formation, and then set up a formation on the periphery that could withstand soul attacks and burst out soul attacks, or even some special illusion traps. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, it was always better to have more protection.
In addition, Yang Qi also expanded the coverage of the original formation, so that if a soul appeared, he could discover it one step ahead.
After all this was prepared, Yang Qi let the Dark Beetle prepare for a breakthrough. The Dark Beetle was an insect beast, and its breakthrough was different from that of a cultivator. To be more precise, it should be an evolution. As long as the accumulation was enough, it could directly reach the level of a two-star Martial Emperor.
Buzz~
As the dark beetle released the restrictions on itself, its aura immediately rose rapidly. As the dark beetle's aura rose, the origin around it immediately fluctuated violently.
As the dark beetle began to evolve, Yang Qi's expression changed slightly, and he thought to himself, "Sure enough, the noise is even louder than the previous practice."
Although he had speculated about this before, now that he had personally experienced it, Yang Qi also understood that the evolution of the dark beetle had caused such a huge fluctuation, and the possibility of attracting souls from other areas had also increased accordingly.
As the dark beetle evolved, Yang Qi and his shadow clone were concentrating on sensing the formation, guarding against the souls that might appear at any time.
Boom!
I don't know how much time had passed, but the aura of the Dark Beetle suddenly rose and directly reached the level of a two-star Martial Emperor. The Dark Beetle officially evolved into a two-star Martial Emperor.
As the aura of the dark beetle reached the level of a two-star Martial Emperor, the origins from all around began to rapidly rush towards the dark beetle and continuously merged into the body of the dark beetle.
Feeling this change, Yang Qi's eyes could not help but flash with a light, his face lit up with joy, and he thought to himself, "Breakthrough here, there will indeed be some unexpected gains." (To be continued)
