356: With increased strength, the situation in the Eastern Region

Several months later.

Inside the Cultivation Hall of the Heavenly Flame Palace.

Su Yun opened his eyes.

His entire body had become crystal clear, constantly bursting with dazzling Five-Colored Spiritual Light that illuminated the entire Cultivation Hall.

Illusory images of five types of Physiques, containing the aura of various Laws, circled around him.

Waves of pressure were released from his body, and the earth-shaking roars of several Dragons could be faintly heard from within him.

“I didn't expect the transformation of my Physique to take so long.

However, now that the transformation is complete, my strength has increased several times over.”

Su Yun thought to himself.

He could now feel the spiritual energy within his body flowing endlessly like a sea of stars.

Although he had not yet comprehended Laws, the intensity of the five types of spiritual energy in his body had already reached the level of spiritual energy that contained Laws.

In other words, even without using various Cultivation Techniques to temporarily boost his strength, he could now casually cast Spells with power far exceeding the Enlightenment Layer One Realm.

Compared to Enlightenment Realm Cultivators, he was only missing a Domain. Although he had only advanced to the Body Integration eighth layer during these past few months, with his current spiritual energy intensity, he could directly shatter the Domain of a true Enlightenment Realm Cultivator.

As for exactly which layer of the Enlightenment Realm he could defeat, he wasn't sure; he would have to test it to find out.

“It's time to end my seclusion. Yuyao and the others seem to have gone out half a month ago.”

Su Yun released his Divine Sense and perceived that he was the only one left in the Heavenly Flame Palace.

Oh, that's not right—besides himself, there was also Yan Ling.

Yan Ling had been by his side as a Protector throughout his seclusion.

“Yan Ling, I’m out of seclusion. I’ll come back to keep you company when I have time in a few days!”

Su Yun gently stroked Yan Ling's head and spoke in a soft voice.

Yan Ling narrowed her beautiful eyes, nodded, and said in an excited tone:

“Okay! Master, you have to keep your word!”

In truth, her demands were few; she just wanted to spend more time with her master. Even if they didn't speak, she felt very happy.

She had stayed by her master's side throughout his seclusion these past few months.

This made her feel very happy, and the loneliness in her heart had dissipated.

After bidding farewell to Yan Ling, Su Yun returned to the cultivation room of the Saint Sons Cave Abode with a single thought.

At this time, four Jade Slips were placed on the table in the cultivation room.

The four Jade Slips respectively emitted the spiritual energy fluctuations of An Yuyao and the others.

“Are these messages from Yuyao and the others?”

Su Yun waved his hand, picked up the four Jade Slips, and began to check them.

Chu Ningyue had already returned to her residence in Taixuan City. It was said that because her father, Chu Duanjiang, was going to visit her, she went back early.

As for An Yuyao and the other two women, they had gone out to gain experience in the world after their Realms improved.

“It seems I've suddenly become idle again.

But first, let's check their life scripts!”

With a thought, Su Yun opened the life scripts of An Yuyao and the other three women.

“They won't encounter any danger, so I can rest easy.

They have quite a few trump cards of their own.

Moreover, I gave them many communication Magic Treasures, so they can notify me immediately if they encounter danger.”

Afterward, he continued to check the life scripts of others. When he saw Leng Xirou's life script, his expression became solemn... [Name: Leng Xirou]

[Age: Nineteen]

[Realm: Nascent Soul Third Layer Realm]

[Physique: Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Bloodline (Only six tails have awakened, each representing an attribute.

Currently, the attributes of the six tails are Ice, Fire, Earth, Illusion, Lightning, and Wood)]

[Luck Rank: Purple]

[Background: Reincarnation of the White Fox Clan Empress, Young Clan Chief of the White Fox Clan]

[Role: female protagonist]

[Recent Turning Points:

1. Half a month ago, Huanwu Mountain, where Leng Xirou's White Fox Clan was hiding, was discovered by the Mo Yan Sect.

The Demonic Cultivators of the Mo Yan Sect demanded the White Fox Clan's submission. The White Fox Clan refused to death and activated a half-immortal artifact to release a spiritual energy barrier, sealing off Huanwu Mountain.

2. Eight days from now, after more than twenty days of continuous attacks by several Enlightenment Realm Cultivators from the Mo Yan Sect, the spiritual energy barrier set up by the half-immortal artifact will finally be broken.

The remaining few Enlightenment Realm experts of the White Fox Clan will use the half-immortal artifact to send Leng Xirou away and will blow themselves up one after another to block the Mo Yan Sect's Demonic Cultivators from pursuing her.

In the end, only Leng Xirou will escape heavily injured under the protection of the half-immortal artifact. The experts of the White Fox Clan will be almost completely wiped out, and most of the young members of the White Fox Clan will be captured by the Mo Yan Sect's Demonic Cultivators.]

[Opportunity: None]

...“Xi Rou is facing such a major crisis; I must go save her.

And save the White Fox Clan while I'm at it.”

Su Yun said with determination.

As the Reincarnation of the Fox Clan Empress, Leng Xirou certainly wants to lead the White Fox Clan to rise again.

Even if she luckily escapes this time, she probably wouldn't be able to bear such a blow.

As Leng Xirou's Dao Companion,

he certainly couldn't just ignore it.

Immediately, he left the Saint Sons Cave Abode in a flash.

He had to get some intelligence on the Eastern Region first; otherwise, he would be completely in the dark upon arriving there and wouldn't know where to find this Huanwu Mountain.

Moreover, the place where Leng Xirou and the others were hiding was likely quite secluded.

So, he might not be able to find out just by asking around once he reached the Eastern Region.

Soon, Su Yun arrived at the Holy Land's Intelligence Pavilion.

The Holy Land's Intelligence Pavilion recorded quite a bit of information about the Five Regions.

Although the Eastern Region was a gathering place for Demonic Cultivators and the information regarding it might be incomplete, it was still better than nothing.

After entering the Intelligence Pavilion,

an Elder dressed in blue robes came forward and said with a beaming smile:

“Saint, how do you have time to visit the Intelligence Pavilion today?

Is there some information you want to know?”

“Elder, sorry to trouble you, but I would like to inquire about information regarding the Eastern Region.”

Su Yun cupped his hands and spoke respectfully.

The Intelligence Pavilion Elder's expression changed slightly upon hearing the words 'Eastern Region', and he said in a grave tone:

“Why is the Saint suddenly asking about the Eastern Region?

The Eastern Region has now been completely occupied by Demonic Cultivators.

A month ago, over a dozen Righteous Path Sects in the Eastern Region were simultaneously attacked by many Demonic Sects.

They were all wiped out in less than a few days.

Now, all teleportation arrays leading directly to the Eastern Region have failed. The Demonic Cultivators used some unknown method to set up a powerful Formation in the Eastern Region, isolating it from the outside world.

Currently, the entire Eastern Region can be considered the territory of Demonic Cultivators.

I don't know why the Demonic Cultivators suddenly have such powerful strength.

It's estimated that they want to officially start a war against us Righteous Path Cultivators of the other four regions.”

“What? Such a thing actually happened?”

Su Yun was somewhat surprised to hear this.

It seemed that the discovery of Leng Xirou and the others hiding in Huanwu Mountain was also related to the great changes in the Eastern Region.

Perhaps it was because the Demonic Cultivators of the Eastern Region were mobilized everywhere that they discovered the White Fox Clan.

He had to act immediately; otherwise, Leng Xirou might encounter other dangers.

Moreover, he intended to act alone for this trip to the Eastern Region.

He wouldn't tell the Elders of the Holy Land.

After all, the Elders of the Holy Land would certainly not agree to him venturing into the territory of Demonic Cultivators.

Thinking of this, Su Yun continued:

“The Demonic Cultivators have sealed off the Eastern Region with such fanfare; they might be about to declare war on us Righteous Path Cultivators again.

As the Taixuan Holy Son, only by understanding more about the situation in the Eastern Region can I better deal with the Demonic Cultivators in the future!”

“Saint, it's wonderful that you have this idea!

I will take you now to the place where the Eastern Region's intelligence is stored.”

The Intelligence Pavilion Elder led Su Yun to a huge shelf deep inside the Intelligence Pavilion with a beaming smile and said in a gentle tone:

“The Jade Slips placed on these shelves contain intelligence on the Eastern Region.

They record many of the Eastern Region's forces, city distributions, Secret Realms, and so on.”

“However, these are all old intelligence; they may not be accurate now and can only be used as a reference.”
