The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

However, what Xiao Qingyin didn't expect was that there was something that could be manipulated beside the River Styx that would frighten most people.

"What is he doing?"

Lu Ye kept slipping in this direction and then in that direction.

Even though Xiao Qingyin considered herself to be very knowledgeable, she had never seen such a scene before.

Xiao Qingyin: "..."

No wonder he thought of coming to the Black Tide Forbidden Land; it turns out there are such unique ways to play.

On the other side, after a long period of exploration, Lu Ye indeed found some traces of fluctuation in the passage.

Every hour or so, when the Black Tide River reaches this place, it stirs up several giant waves, which are awe-inspiring.

Just then, an invisible passage quietly appeared, but the opportunity was fleeting.

Lu Ye relied on all the knowledge of array formations he had learned in his life to spin around for a long time.

Furthermore, the fact that this passage was no longer in a perfect state finally revealed this brief period of revelation.

However, despite the discovery, Lu Ye would not enter the area himself to test it.

What if this is a one-way passage?
Doesn't that mean that once it's over, there's no going back?
"No, although the leaked aura is very small, and most people wouldn't dare to come here, we should still try to repair it if possible."

After a moment's thought, Lu Ye took out several array flags and, instead of touching the main body of the passage, rearranged two shielding arrays next to the riverbank.

After it was done, even when the special period of about an hour arrived, the aura of the passage was no longer revealed.

The reason for going to such lengths is mainly to guard against those who might come from the Netherworld.

Perhaps some of them have heard the story of the Black Tide River Styx and know a little about it.

Now that the loopholes have been patched, unless they are truly proficient in formations, it will be useless for them to come near the River Styx.

When Lu Ye returned to Xiao Qingyin's side, Xiao Qingyin was already sitting in meditation, consolidating her newly advanced realm.

Seeing Lu Ye return, Xiao Qingyin finally opened her eyes.

"You're back? What were you doing just now? I saw you wandering around over there for a long time." Xiao Qingyin asked with a hint of curiosity.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see if there was anything special about this Black Tide River. Unfortunately, after looking for a while, I didn't find anything," Lu Ye said.

When the River Styx has a passage leading to an unknown destination, the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Therefore, Lu Ye did not say it.

"The River Styx is indeed mysterious, and its depths are unfathomable. Many have wanted to go down and see what kind of world lies beneath it, but alas..."

Xiao Qingyin sighed and said, "In the end, no one still knows."

Lu Ye nodded in agreement; the River Styx was indeed mysterious and captivating.

But now that he's at the Earth Realm, he can't see much more. All he can say is that this mystery is hard to unravel.

...

Half a day later, after wandering around the Black Tide Forbidden Land again, Lu Ye actually found a sixth-order spiritual herb and two or three fifth-order ones.

The fifth-tier item was naturally given to Xiao Qingyin, as he had no use for it. The sixth-tier item was placed in his storage ring, waiting to be used during his next cultivation session.

In addition, Lu Ye also saw several fifth-tier ferocious beasts in the forbidden area, comparable to the mid-to-late stage of a Grandmaster in the Mortal Realm.

However, when they encountered Lu Ye, these ferocious beasts all ran away as fast as they could.

The beast king, who is feared and terrified in the forbidden area, seems to be even more frightening than the humans!
"Alright, let's go out." At this moment, Lu Ye also suggested leaving.

Overall, the most dangerous place within the forbidden area is still the River Styx.

Apart from that, in other regions, having the strength of a mid-stage Earth Realm cultivator is generally enough for safe movement.

"Hmm, let's go. I feel this forbidden area is still too dangerous. That fifth-tier ferocious beast is at least comparable to the mid-stage of the mortal realm."

Unlike Lu Ye's experience, Xiao Qingyin felt that the forbidden area was indeed a forbidden area, and was still too dangerous.

Hearing that this person was finally going to leave, I immediately felt a sense of relief.

I don't want to come to this place again. Let whoever wants to come, come.

After a while, they withdrew from the depths of the forbidden area. This time, in the outer area, they actually encountered a small team with roughly the strength of the Acquired Realm.

Seeing just these two people emerge from what appeared to be the depths of a forbidden area, the six-person team couldn't help but widen their eyes in astonishment.

"No way... just the two of them dared to go this deep?!" One of the bald team members said in disbelief.

Going any deeper, even those at the Innate Realm cannot guarantee a safe retreat...

These two people don't look like experts at the Innate Realm.

In the squad, another man glanced at it twice, and suddenly his pupils contracted sharply.

"It's...it's him?!"

Immediately, the pockmarked man gasped in shock, as if he had seen a foreigner appear.

Seeing the pockmarked man's shocked expression, his teammate asked curiously, "Old Yu, do you know these two people?"

The pockmarked man took several deep breaths before shaking his head and then nodding: "To be precise, I know one of them."

"Damn it! You kid, you don't know that female cultivator who looks so elegant, do you?!" Immediately, several teammates punched the pockmarked man.

With a wry smile, the pockmarked man said, "You're giving me too much credit. When I say I know someone, I mean one-sidedly... I know the person on the other side, but they don't know me at all. Besides, the person I know is that man."

That man?

The other five people glanced at it, and two or three of them seemed familiar, but for a moment, they couldn't quite place them.

"Who is that?"

"If I tell you, you should recognize him. He's the one who recently killed a Grandmaster of the Earth Realm on Yinmang Mountain... Senior Chen Beixuan!"

After the pockmarked man finished speaking, he showed a deep expression of reverence, as if he had seen a god of the world.

"What?! It's that senior?!"

Sure enough, upon hearing this name, the teammates all trembled as if they had heard the name of a celestial being.

"Everyone says that senior is very young, achieved fame at a young age, and is a once-in-a-millennium genius in our Northern Territory. Now that I see it, it is indeed true!"

"If it's him, it's not surprising that he could enter the depths of the forbidden area..."

The team members were immediately amazed.

On the other side, Xiao Qingyin also spotted the small, weak exploration team and couldn't help but laugh, "It seems like someone over there recognizes you. You're quite the celebrity in our Northern Territory now."

After advancing to the Grandmaster level in the Mortal Realm, Xiao Qingyin's five senses also increased significantly.

Several hundred meters away, their voices were quite loud, and they could be heard clearly. (End of Chapter)
