39: Horrible tree prison

The afternoon passed simply like that.

Li Ye and Lin Qiuyao took a nap.

Because Dual Cultivation and Alchemy had been quite frequent these past few days, Li Ye's Realm was quickly nearing its peak.

Li Ye went to the trading market to see if there were any Cultivation Technique or Divine Ability he liked, but after browsing, he found none.

It made sense; only a few people obtained Divine Ability and Cultivation Technique. He had been in the Wasteland for over ten days and hadn't encountered a single wild and decent Technique.

He went to check on the Spirit Fruit tree and found that the Spirit Fruits had all ripened. He picked thirty Spirit Fruits, leaving ten for himself and his wives to satisfy their cravings, and listed the rest for sale in his shop.

Finally, after two hours of Alchemy, coupled with the sold Spirit Fruits, Li Ye gathered the remaining Spirit Stones he needed.

At this point, his Realm progress reached Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level at 100%.

He checked what was needed to Breakthrough to the next Realm and unlocked information about the Foundation Establishment Stage.

To Breakthrough to the early Foundation Establishment Stage, there are three choices:

Human Foundation Establishment (Lower-Tier Foundation Establishment): Required resources: 1 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone plus one inferior Foundation Establishment Pill. Basic probability: 10%. Each additional inferior Foundation Establishment Pill increases the probability by 10%.

Earth Foundation Establishment (Mid-Tier Foundation Establishment): Required resources: 5 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones plus one ordinary Foundation Establishment Pill. Basic probability: 5%. Each additional ordinary Foundation Establishment Pill increases the probability by 5%.

Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment (Upper-Tier Foundation Establishment): Required resources: 10 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones plus one top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. Basic probability: 1%. Each additional top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill increases the probability by 1%.

Note: The tier of Foundation Establishment determines future achievements. The probability of Core Formation for Human Foundation Establishment is extremely low, and forming a High Grade Golden Core is even more remote.

Earth Foundation Establishment is ordinary Foundation Establishment, with prospects for Golden Core and Nascent Soul in the future.

Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is one in ten thousand, a definite qualification for Soul Transformation.

Players, please handle this appropriately. While Human Foundation Establishment is simple, it is a self-defeating act. Although Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is strong in the future, it requires a large amount of resources.

It is recommended that Earth Foundation Establishment is sufficient.

Li Ye checked for a long time, and his head truly ached. What exactly was this Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment? A single top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill only had a 1% chance.

The crucial point was that to guarantee a 100% Breakthrough, he would need at least a hundred pills... although he could try when he had fifty or sixty.

He could even try with a dozen if he considered himself a lucky emperor.

Human Foundation Establishment was definitely not an option; it would ruin his future. So, the only choices to consider were Earth Foundation Establishment and Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

“Forget it, I’ll see what everyone else says then. Buddha Dragon Child, Solomon, Xiao Yan, they might all choose Earth Foundation Establishment.”

Li Ye opened the chat channel but saw everyone discussing daily quests.

“Brothers, have you completed today’s quest? I don’t have any Yao Beast here, what should I do? Will I die?”

“Me too, I’ve been looking for a long time and haven’t found any Yao Beast. This is a Gobi Desert, a godforsaken place.”

“No way, surely no one hasn’t even seen a Yao Beast, right?”

“This first quest is quite simple. Most of the Yao Beast that spawn outside now are First Order Medium Grade and First Order High Grade; you can kill them with a little effort.”

“Please carry me, I’m a girl.”

“…”

Li Ye was speechless. Did this quest really need a full-screen discussion?

Helpless, he decided to head to the Secret Realm now, perhaps this time he could find the Legacy of the Secret Realm.

Hearing that Li Ye was going out, Chen Peipei and Xiao Luolin both decided to go with him.

Lin Qiuyao and Bai Jie, on the other hand, chose to stay at home and wait for their husband to return.

After some thought, to ensure their safety, Li Ye left Yan Xiaoji and Er Mi behind.

Subsequently, one man and two women headed to the Secret Realm.

Soon, they arrived at the familiar glow.

First Order Secret Realm, do you wish to enter?

Yes.

The three disappeared in front of the Secret Realm, arriving in the familiar world.

After two hours of searching, Li Ye vaguely felt that there weren't many Spirit Medicine and Yao Beast left here.

Perhaps it was because too many people had visited.

After exploring again, heading towards places they hadn't been before, the group arrived in front of a large mountain.

At this moment, two teams of people were arguing about something.

Each of these two teams consisted of about four or five people, both men and women.

They were dressed in modern clothes, so it was easy to tell they were not original resident, but players.

Li Ye was very curious; could there be some treasure in this mountain? If so, he definitely had to get involved.

After observing for a bit, none of these women had goddesses, which made things easier; he wouldn't care if he offended them.

Seeing Li Ye and the two women arrive, the two teams immediately stopped arguing and watched Li Ye and the others with wary eyes.

“What are you arguing about? Is there something in this mountain?”

The leader of one of the teams snorted coldly, saying:

“Young man, this doesn’t concern you. If you don’t want to die, get lost quickly.”

He looked at Li Ye with disdain.

Simply because Li Ye was too young, he probably didn't have much to fear.

While there were young people who achieved success after Transmigration to the Wasteland, more often it was middle-aged people around 30, who were cunning and resourceful.

However, the two women behind him were each more alluring than the last.

The pure and seductive girl Chen Peipei, and the tsundere loli Xiao Luolin, with their exquisite and lovely faces, and their delicate figures, stirred different thoughts in the other leader.

He kept sizing up Li Ye, his eyes carrying a hint of malice.

“Little brother, let me tell you, both of our teams have found the keys to this stone door.

Behind this stone door lies the Opportunity belonging to this Secret Realm, but to open this stone door, two keys are needed, and each of our teams has one, so we’ve been in a stalemate for a while.

Little brother, seeing that you are alone, if you offer me the two women behind you, I am willing to let you join me. I will feed you daily, and I can even give you five Low-Grade Spirit Stones.”

After speaking, his gaze lingered on Xiao Luolin and Chen Peipei, and he was secretly pleased. Currently, five Low-Grade Spirit Stones a day was a high wage, as most people were currently at Qi Refining Stage 3 to Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level and needed a lot of Spirit Stones.

He himself was a strong cultivator at Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level.

At this moment, Li Ye’s heart was also filled with murderous intent. Daring to have designs on his women, wasn’t this carrying a lantern to the toilet—seeking death?

“Since that’s the case, I have a solution.”

Li Ye said, his eyes slightly cold.

“Oh?”

The two leaders both looked at Li Ye with disdain, wanting to see what solution he would have.

“Just give both keys to me, wouldn’t that solve it? All this chattering, you ants who don’t dare to make a move.”

After Li Ye spoke, they burst into laughter.

Did he really think he was the protagonist?

Are young people all this amusing?

A thirty-eight-year-old married woman from one of the teams also looked at Li Ye with a mocking gaze.

When she was young, she loved to play around, and when she got older, she married an honest man and tricked him out of his betrothal gifts. However, during her very first fraudulent marriage, she Transmigrated to this man-eating Wasteland world.

On her first day, she, with her almost rotten body, found the boss, who was the leader of this team and the one with ideas about Li Ye’s women, Yang Baoguo.

“Heh, young man, I advise you to be careful.”

Yang Baoguo said in a seasoned tone.

“Brother Baoguo, kill that insolent brat for me! How dare he mock my Brother Baoguo? He truly deserves ten thousand deaths.”

The disgusting thirty-eight-year-old married woman shrieked venomously.

Just as the two factions were about to make a move on Li Ye, he shook his head.

“Tree Imprisonment Technique!”

He whispered.

The next moment, several spiritual trees, thicker than water barrels, burst from the ground, instantly forming a huge prison made of spiritual wood.

The vines on the spiritual wood extended, tightly coiling around everyone.

Tree Imprisonment Technique!

As the name suggested, it was a prison made of forest trees.

It was a particularly powerful control Divine Ability.

And Li Ye also felt that even ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage experts might find it difficult to break through.

This was only at the introductory level.

How exaggerated would the Tree Imprisonment Technique be at Minor Achievement?

Everyone was terrified, and the two leading figures looked at Li Ye with fear.

They never expected that a young man who seemed to be less than 20 years old could be so powerful!

The 38-year-old married woman was so scared that she lost control of her bladder, and a foul odor permeated the air.

Meanwhile, the vines on the spiritual wood wrapped tighter and tighter around them. If nothing unexpected happened, they would become nourishment for these dozen or so spiritual trees!

Tree Imprisonment Technique.

Terrifying to such an extent!
