Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 316 - 314: Lu Ye Absorbs the Spirit Pool, Daylight Stars Appear!

Chapter 316: Chapter 314: Lu Ye Absorbs the Spirit Pool, Daylight Stars Appear!

As Lu Ye swiftly headed over there and formally arrived not far from the Thunder Attribute Spirit Pool, he realized that there was a natural barrier here.

This barrier covered the Spirit Pool.

Only a faint trace of thunder attribute aura was revealed, indicating that indeed, an opportunity existed here.

"Perhaps it is precisely because of the natural barrier that the fierce beasts of the Gravity Plain haven’t ruined this place."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye did not summon Xiao Ling who was resting in the Myriad Dao Pavilion.

This natural barrier was quite clever; cultivators could see through it at a glance, but most fierce beasts, who lack adaptability, were easily kept out.

In the next moment, crossing the outer natural barrier, Lu Ye entered within.

The space inside was not large; amid a muddy plain, there was a stone platform.

And on the stone platform, there was a pool, above which... faint strands of tiny lightning could be seen, as if thunder snakes were surging!

Leaping onto the stone platform, Lu Ye instantly sat down cross-legged.

Without employing the Ancient Star Scripture, he could already feel the surging energy around him eagerly attempting to penetrate his body.

He absorbed a bit to test the strength of this Thunder Attribute Spirit Pool.

Suddenly, a slight tingling sensation came from Lu Ye’s body, like an electric shock...

"Thankfully, it’s still within the bearable range, though it’s uncertain to what extent it could be enhanced once I start absorbing in large quantities."

Nodding slightly, in an instant, Lu Ye hesitated no more; the Ancient Star Scripture was fully activated! Overhead, a vague starlit scene faintly appeared!

As Lu Ye absorbed with full force, the thunder snakes hiding within the Spirit Pool’s energy erupted completely.

Lu Ye felt a wave of pain from within his body, the power of thunder!

"Such a domineering thunder attribute!"

At this moment, Lu Ye realized the might of thunder; the human body is ultimately fragile, not yet akin to steel.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye suddenly slowed his absorption and refinement speed by half.

Only then did the gathered thunder snake’s power become tolerable for Lu Ye.

As Lu Ye absorbed and refined, the aura slowly emanating from him continued to ascend.

...

Secret Realm First Layer.

Su Wan also arrived at the entrance leading to the Second Layer.

"Eh, I remember there used to be fierce beasts roaming the entrance before, why are they missing today?"

After pondering for a moment, Su Wan concluded someone might have arrived earlier?

Was it the master or Lu Xuan?

Not lingering long in the First Layer, Su Wan swiftly entered the Second Layer of the Secret Realm.

At the very same time Su Wan stepped into the Second Layer, in the vast and boundless Second Layer Secret Realm... suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder boomed!

Rumble!

Celestial thunder pierced through the clouds, descending upon this often sealed space of the Secret Realm.

"Secret Realm Celestial Thunder?! What... what’s happening?!"

Su Wan had entered the Secret Realm multiple times, and although theoretically celestial phenomena existed here, most of the time it remained calm and unperturbed.

Strong winds only appeared at night.

This situation of thunder crashing down... was never before seen in the Secret Realm!

On the other side, Red Cloud Fairy, who arrived at a hot area within the Secret Realm, suddenly raised her head to look at the heavens.

"Celestial Thunder descending?!"

Similar to the celestial phenomena change in the Northern Territory before...

In that instant, many previous speculations once again resurfaced in Red Cloud’s mind!

That time... several hundred miles outside Cloud Leaf City, encountering someone suspected to possess a Divine Body making a breakthrough, Red Cloud Fairy originally intended to investigate but was repelled by a woman cultivator dressed in black...

"So, previously I guessed wrong; the Divine Body owner and you... are the same person?!"

Red Cloud Fairy stood frozen, her mind somewhat blank.

"You... are actually the Divine Body?!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Unlike Su Wan, Red Cloud Fairy could almost confirm the celestial phenomena movement was mostly caused by Lu Xuan!

Even... ninety-nine percent sure!

"Is he currently trying to achieve Grandmaster?!"

Thinking to this point, Red Cloud’s heart was suddenly shocked by the thought of Grandmaster... such distant words!

While celestial phenomena roiled within the Secret Realm, outside over the Red Cloud Sect and surrounding thousands of miles, a sudden rainstorm descended.

This rainstorm came unexpectedly, with many people caught under the rain, barely able to protect themselves with inner qi, seeking shelter from the rain.

"This ghastly weather, changing all of a sudden, it was fine just now."

"Indeed, I had only walked halfway, intending to visit my distant cousin, but now with this rain, I can’t see my cousin, nor my cousin-in-law..."

In a small town.

Under the eaves of a shop by the street, there were many people sheltering from the rain, looking at the sky and the unanticipated downpour, many with expressions of helplessness.

Among the crowd hiding from the rain was an elder dressed in coarse cloth.

The elder carried a thick aura of twilight, indicating he was an elderly person on the verge of passing.

His old face was lined with wrinkles, his eyes were cloudy, seeming slightly intoxicated from drinking.

But upon witnessing the sudden downpour, the elder’s expression suddenly became serious, and a trace of surprise flickered deep in his eyes.

"Within the celestial phenomena, a hint of auspicious energy is hidden... is someone making a breakthrough?"

The elder muttered to himself, his voice was low, but still heard by those beside him.

Turning to look, they found the old man in coarse cloth, who immediately laughed: "Old Yuan, what nonsense are you muttering now? Did you drink too much again today?"

"Yes, Old Yuan, you always like to ramble when you drink, constantly saying the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed; I think you’ve babbled quite a bit!"

Someone nearby burst into laughter; Old Yuan was the lonely elder in the town, having arrived here seven or eight years ago, living in a previously unwanted thatched cottage on the west side of town.

This old man liked to drink and never had much silver, so he set up a stall to tell fortunes, earning some copper coins to buy wine.

Initially, the old man’s predictions were somewhat accurate, slowly earning him a bit of reputation.

But as more people came drawn by his reputation needing fortune-telling, changing from ordinary people’s luck to cultivator’s opportunities...

Old Yuan’s predictions seemed to lose effectiveness, never accurate again; if not for his frail old age, his stall might have been overturned by some hot-tempered cultivators.

So now, hearing him deduce auspicious energy from merely observing the sudden downpour, someone making a breakthrough...

The town residents couldn’t help but laugh.

Disregarding the comments of others, Old Yuan pretended not to hear, his expression amidst half-drunkenness revealing a thread of seriousness.

"In broad daylight, stars faintly appear..."
