Chapter 1374: Chu Yang, Rapid Breakthrough
Boom!
Not long after, Chu Yang broke through to the Third Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, however, it didn’t stop there, as his cultivation kept rising until he finally came to a stop after reaching the Peak of the Fifth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm.
If not for the fact that his cultivation was in a rather unstable state at the moment, he would have wanted to try and figure out more about where that powerful and pure spiritual qi had suddenly come from, but for now, he quickly sat down and stabilized his cultivation base enough that he could move around normally after 10 minutes.
Even if he wanted to stay and fully consolidate his cultivation base, he understood that he couldn’t remain inside the abandoned city when the cultivators from Demon Mountain City arrived.
So, having already found the gateway out of the secret realm as it was essentially at the center of the abandoned town and difficult to miss, Chu Yang placed the black spear into his interspatial ring before rushing out and arriving directly in front of the gateway-
Whoosh-!
And without any hesitation he stepped through the gateway just as one of the few surviving Nascent Soul Realm cultivators popped his head up over the edge of the cliff before dragging his exhausted body up on the ground before falling unconscious due to the overwhelming exhaustion from the two-day long journey across the violent river.
Not far behind him, the city lord, a Domain Lord and two other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators similarly collapsed on the ground from exhaustion. All of them having been pushed to their limits over the past two days, as they constantly had to fight off strange creatures and keep themselves afloat at the same time.
In the end, they were the only ones who had ended up surviving out of the close to three dozen people who had gone at the start.
But that didn’t matter to any of them, they were just happy that they had managed to survive.
As for leaving the secret realm? None of them were dumb enough to do something like that in their current exhausted and half dead state, as they expected to end up somewhere like where they had found the first entrance to the secret realm. Inside a mountain range filled to the brim with powerful demon beasts that would want nothing more than to jump on them and devour them if given the opportunity.
…
“A small cave and hidden by a formation as well. If not for that Soul Ascension Realm cultivator who might come through the gateway at any moment now, I would have really loved to stay in a location like this to stabilize my cultivation base.”
Coming out on the other side of the gateway connected to the secret realm, Chu Yang first felt relived that it wasn’t somewhere dangerous where he would get jumped by a group of powerful demon beasts the moment he arrived, but at the same time also felt disappointed that he couldn’t stay with a Soul Ascension Realm cultivator potentially appearing through the gateway to the secret realm at any moment.
Knowing the danger of staying for even a few seconds longer, Chu Yang quickly made his way to the entrance of the cave before looking out to see if the environment outside was just as safe as inside the concealment formation.
“No demon beasts stronger than the Foundation Establishment Realm around… Great! This place isn’t as dangerous as I thought it might be.” Muttering this to himself after inspecting the outside environment, Chu Yang felt even more at ease before he made his way out of the concealment formation. Looking like he suddenly stepped out through solid rock in the eyes of anyone witnessing the scene of him leaving the concealment formation.
Huh? This is still a mountain range… And that path over there- Isn’t that the end of the safe passage? Did I manage to cross through the mountain range by accident?
Inspecting his surroundings more in-depth now that he had left the small cave, Chu Yang could not help showing a somewhat shocked expression on his face when he realized that he had ended up right next to the endpoint of the safe passage through the mountain range separating the core region from the former territory of the Sky Empire.
Seeing a small city that had been described in the information about the safe passage through the mountain range not too far away, Chu Yang confirmed that he had indeed made it to the core region of the continent.
If not that, he could also clearly feel that the spiritual qi in the air was far denser than it had been back in the Sky Empire’s territory.
Of course, it was still far inferior when compared to the Shattered Star Peaks, but it wasn’t like there was anything to compare the chaotic qi formation to…
“For now, find a safe place, stabilize my cultivation base. After that explore the core region!” Muttering this to himself as he gazed off towards the small city in the distance, Chu Yang quickly set his priorities straight before he left the place and went to search for a safe place to consolidate his cultivation base at the Peak of the Fifth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm without being disturbed when the Soul Ascension Realm city lord would inevitably emerge from the secret realm like he had.
In the end, he settled for a small, secluded cave a few hundred meters away, as he made sure to try his best at hiding his presence before sealing the entrance with a large rock to prevent anyone or anything from accidentally stumbling into the cave before he sat down in a meditative position and focused his full attention on consolidating his cultivation base.
Given that he had directly broken through from the Second Stage of the Domain Lord Realm to the Peak of the Fifth Stage, it would take him at least a few weeks to fully stabilize his cultivation base.
Of course, though he felt sad at using so much of his time just cultivating in seclusion after reaching the core region, he wasn’t too sad when thinking about the reason for it.
