Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 295 - 293: Within the Secret Realm, the Terrifying Gravity Mountain and the Appearance of a Rare Heavenly Treasure

Chapter 295: Chapter 293: Within the Secret Realm, the Terrifying Gravity Mountain and the Appearance of a Rare Heavenly Treasure

Strangely, within a radius of several dozen miles, where Lu Ye’s gaze reached, there were few plants in vast areas.

"It seems there’s a gravitational field here, making flying impossible."

After a brief sensing, Lu Ye discovered this situation.

Gazing at the gigantic mountain in the distance, Lu Ye intuitively thought, if there truly existed a mystical treasure within this peculiar Secret Realm, it was very likely...

Right over there!

"Xiao Ling, let’s go."

With a call, Lu Ye took the lead towards that direction.

Behind him, Xiao Ling immediately hopped a few steps to catch up with its master.

This Secret Realm still had fierce beasts present.

In less than ten minutes, Lu Ye encountered a fierce beast at the Peak of Innate Realm.

However, the beasts in here continued the trend of the outside Broken Soul Forbidden Land, seeking fortune and avoiding disaster.

Feeling that Lu Ye was not to be trifled with, this beast turned around and ran, as if fearing that if it delayed for a moment, it would lose its life.

From the way the beast turned and ran, it could be seen that in this Secret Realm, even the speed of the beasts was suppressed, looking not as fast as outside.

Then, half a day later, the beasts within the entire mysterious Secret Realm seemed to have disappeared completely.

On the journey, not a single one was encountered.

"Are the beasts here this cautious?" Lu Ye shook his head at this rather strange situation.

Under the suppression of the gravitational field rules, Lu Ye’s speed was not considered fast.

After half a day had passed, the mountain in the distance was still visible but distant.

Having stayed in the Myriad Dao Pavilion for a long time, Xiao Ling found everything outside quite novel, its small eyes darting around, as if there were endless sights to see.

Finally, after another half day.

Within the Secret Realm, day also began to turn into night, with stars hanging in the night sky flickering.

"The phrase ’looking at a mountain tires a horse’ truly holds!"

Lu Ye sighed, obviously able to see the mountain in view, but had to walk a whole day just to barely reach the foot of the mountain.

After all, even under the suppression of the gravitational field, his speed was still not something ordinary people could compare with.

Upon approaching the mountain, Lu Ye felt the pervasive gravitational field seemed to become stronger.

Every step forward required more effort to accomplish.

"This mountain seems a bit peculiar."

Lu Ye murmured slightly, as this gravitational field was so suppressive even to him, a Grandmaster of the Ninth Layer.

Any other cultivator coming here with lower strength than his would surely be in a worse situation.

Nearby, Xiao Ling wasn’t affected at all, continuing to bounce and hop around.

Seeing Xiao Ling still lively, Lu Ye pondered whether the suppression here only affected the Human Race or fierce beasts?

Was it that spiritual objects like Xiao Ling, inherent to nature, could avoid this situation?

If that’s the case...

"Xiao Ling, go check out what’s on this mountain and see if there’s a tree that looks like a treasure."

On this mountain, with such a strong gravitational suppression, no beast dared linger on it, unable to withstand such terrifying pressure.

So, Lu Ye felt assured to have Xiao Ling scout the way.

This little one, not being suppressed, would be wasting this trait if not utilized.

Hearing its master’s words, Xiao Ling nodded immediately.

Its small, jade-like feet hopped towards the mountain.

Watching Xiao Ling’s silhouette gradually disappear up the mountain path, Lu Ye bore the pressure, sat cross-legged at the foot, and began cultivating, wasting no idle time.

After nearly half an hour, with Xiao Ling’s petite pace, it finally managed to scout the general situation of the rather grand mountain.

When Xiao Ling returned, it chirped a lot.

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

The useful information for Lu Ye was not much.

According to what it said, there were several oddly-shaped trees up there, looking quite unusual.

But whether one of them was the tree its master sought, Xiao Ling couldn’t ascertain.

"Didn’t you claim to have a keen sense for treasures? Even you can’t tell?" Translating Xiao Ling’s words, Lu Ye was a bit surprised.

"Chirp chirp." Xiao Ling chirped twice more.

Quickly, Lu Ye analyzed its meaning.

Xiao Ling meant it could sense the special traits of treasures.

However, if those high-level treasures were disguised, Xiao Ling’s current level was not enough to perceive their wondrous nature thoroughly.

Hearing this, Lu Ye pondered.

Suddenly, Lu Ye thought of a trick to let Xiao Ling carry a Surveillance Array Plate!

While he held the Surveillance Array Stone, he could see the status of various places inside the mountain.

"Here, I’ll give you a Surveillance Array Plate. Take it and make another round, pick out those trees you find a bit odd and capture them for me to see."

"Chirp." Xiao Ling nodded; its energy was abundant, and this round trip was no big deal for it.

Shortly after, Xiao Ling, holding the Surveillance Array Plate, ascended the mountain again.

As Xiao Ling moved through the mountain, the scenes inside, through the Surveillance Array Plate, came into Lu Ye’s view.

Soon, after the time of a burning incense stick passed.

At one particular site, with Xiao Ling’s chirping direction, saying it felt this tree seemed off, Lu Ye’s eyes slightly narrowed.

It was a tree of unidentifiable species, seemingly less than half a meter tall, with not too many leaves.

Moreover, beside the tree lay a blank stone tablet, like some sort of mark.

At this moment, Lu Ye had a hunch that if a mystical treasure truly existed and it was a tree, this was most probably the one!

Having Xiao Ling make a mark, then carrying the Surveillance Array Plate back.

Feeling the overwhelming gravitational field face-on, Lu Ye’s expression was quite serious as he embarked on the path up the mountain.

Just within a distance of less than two hundred meters, Lu Ye’s substantial Grandmaster’s Source Qi was visibly depleted by about ten percent.

One must know, this fraction of power, if used in battle, could easily kill several Peak of Innate Realm individuals!

Yet now, simply climbing up the mountain resulted in such terrifying depletion.

Fortunately, from the information Xiao Ling relayed back, the tree wasn’t at the mountain’s peak but rather near the halfway point.

"This peculiar gravitational field... I wonder if psychic techniques might have some effect."

This thought flashed through his mind, and aside from utilizing his Grandmaster’s Source Qi to sustain his advance, Lu Ye activated the Purple Extreme Divine Refining Technique.

In the next moment, something happened to Lu Ye’s delight.

The terrifying load of gravity in front of him visibly eased up considerably.

Although it still didn’t reach the ease of walking on flat ground, it was already much easier to move forward.
