At this moment, he had already passed the initial stage of adaptation. Now, the speed at which he cultivated and refined the Earthly Ferocious Aura had become even faster. However, the bone-chilling cold and the terrifyingly low temperature still made it difficult for him to withstand.
Now, he had to rest for a period of time after every six hours of cultivation. There was no other way. Even if his physical body was strong enough and his Divine Powers were strong enough, his physical body was still unable to be completely immune to such a terrifyingly low temperature.
At this moment, he could not help but feel fortunate. If the System in his mind had not provided him with such a special Body Tempering Technique, even if he wanted to use what he had learned, he would not be able to use it to strengthen his physical body. To him, mastering this was not difficult. The difficult part was that he could not persevere for a long time.
To him, this was an extremely difficult matter. However, at the same time, Luo Xiu also knew that he could not be too anxious. He still understood the principle of more haste, less speed.
The most important thing was that under such circumstances, he did not know what he could do to raise his physical body to its strongest state in the shortest time possible.
However, he was very clear that he had no choice. If he wanted to go to the source of the Earthly Ferocious Aura, he had to work hard to integrate the Earthly Ferocious Aura in this place and see what kind of opportunity was hidden there that made the System treat it so seriously. If it was any other time, Luo Xiu would have had the ability to escape from this place.
However, the System's insistence made Luo Xiu know that there must be something very important to him or the System. Otherwise, the System would not be so insistent on staying here.
"System, if I continue to waste time like this, who knows how much time I will waste?
Do I really have to keep wasting time like this?
This is not something that can be solved in a short time. You also know that I have very important things to do. That old man, the Devouring Heaven Emperor, has always been a thorn in my side. If we don't take this opportunity to get rid of him, the fact that I killed the direct descendants of the two great families will definitely be exposed. "Luo Xiu asked worriedly.
Although he knew that the fact that he had killed the direct descendants of the two great families had already been exposed, he still held on to the possibility that something might happen. After all, to him, at worst, he could just change his identity.
After all, in terms of the ability to escape, Luo Xiu believed that as long as he was given the chance, he could say without exaggeration that no one in this world could catch up with him. "Don't think too much about it.
Those people don't dare to come in easily, but it doesn't mean that they won't be able to come in forever. You don't have as much time as you think, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it won't be long before those people can come in. I have already sensed the change in the energy. At this moment, the Earth Demon Energy in this area is converging towards the core area, which means that something big is about to happen. Most importantly, once the Earth Demon Energy in this valley returns to the source, you can imagine what the consequences will be. At that time, this place will no longer be safe. Have you ever thought that once this happens, your situation will be very dangerous? Although there is no way to find out why they are chasing you, it can be said that you must have caused some trouble. Either your identity has been exposed, or they are here for the World Origin. No matter which side it is, it is extremely disadvantageous for you. "
Seeing Luo Xiu's nonchalant attitude, the System in his mind knew the seriousness of the matter. Therefore, when it said this, its tone was particularly serious.
Although Luo Xiu was dismissive of the System's words, he knew that he couldn't be too willful. Therefore, he continued to cultivate without hesitation. For him, time was indeed extremely precious, just as the System said.
Although he knew that no matter how hard he worked, it was impossible to upgrade his body to the strongest state in such a short period of time, he also knew that he had no other choice. The situation in front of him wasn't something he could decide.
For him, if he couldn't solve his problem in a short period of time, he had to find a way to leave this place. Otherwise, it would be a tragedy if he was really surrounded by those people outside.
Luo Xiu didn't care about the outside world at all. He knew that it wasn't peaceful outside, but he knew that he couldn't do anything. No matter what the situation was, he couldn't affect those people outside.
After all, he was now a turtle in a jar. The most important thing now was to protect his own life. Compared to these things, the situation here was the best.
At the same time, the outside world in the Nine Heavens Sanctuary, which had already become chaotic because of the rogue cultivators from the Divine Realm, became more and more chaotic as time passed. Some rogue cultivators had even completely given up on pursuing Luo Xiu when they saw the miserable scene outside Don't Forget Valley.
At this moment, taking advantage of this opportunity to descend to the lower realms, these people had already experienced the greatest enjoyment of having a strong cultivation. For them, if they were in the Divine Realm, they would be insignificant existences. But in this lower realm, it was different. Here, they could do whatever they wanted. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that in this lower realm, they could even become the overlords of a region.
This huge difference in status made these people a little complacent. At this moment, they had completely given up on making further breakthroughs in their cultivation base. They even directly gave up on the idea of returning to the Divine Realm.
For them, since their cultivation base was stuck in this place for the rest of their lives, they might as well enjoy themselves. Most importantly, they were just some low-level cultivators in the Divine Realm. However, in this world, they were indeed terrifying overlords who could dominate a region.
For a time, because of the rogue cultivators' outrageous acts, the entire Nine Heavens Sanctuary was in chaos. Many powerful clans were even exterminated. The precious collections of the clans that had been stored for millions of years were looted. Some beautiful women of the clans were also forcefully taken. This was simply a violation of social norms, and it really angered some powerful existences in the Nine Heavens Sanctuary.
However, because the situation in the Nine Heavens Sanctuary was extremely strange, some powerful experts of the Divine Realm couldn't cross over to this place. Even if some people with similar cultivation base as the rogue cultivators came over, they couldn't do anything to so many rogue cultivators. After all, when the Jin Clan and the Mingyu Clan opened the teleportation array, the two great clans released a lot of evildoers.
After so many years, the entire Nine Heavens Sacred Region had fallen into chaos. Only three or four of the original top ten forces were left. The rest had either been wiped out or had gone into hiding. Some had even gone into hiding in their own Minor Dimensions.
At this very moment, Luo Xiu's cultivation had already reached the most crucial moment. However, what made him disappointed was that as time passed, he was already unable to maintain his current cultivation speed. Due to a special reason, the valley that he was in, was the source of the Earthly Baleful Qi, and it was continuously returning to the Earthly Baleful Qi.
As a result, the density of the Baleful Earth Qi in the area he was in was no longer enough to satisfy his cultivation conditions.
Left with no choice, Luo Xiu could only enter the huge cave created by the system and go deeper and deeper. At this moment, in front of him, rumbling sounds could be heard continuously. It was heading towards the source of the Baleful Earth Qi.
As Luo Xiu refined his body, he absorbed and refined the Earth Terminus Qi at the same time. To him, the situation before his eyes was extremely unfamiliar. He looked at the black stones that were flickering with a strange light on both sides of the wall and his face revealed a strange expression.
"System, why do these black stones look so familiar? I think I've seen them somewhere before. Can you help me check your database? I'm sure I've seen these things before."
Luo Xiu couldn't help but ask the system in his mind. He really felt strange about the stones that were emitting a strange light.
"These should be formed from the Baleful Earth Qi. To the system, these things aren't very useful. It's even more useless for you. Of course, if you want them, they still have some use. It's just that they are extremely difficult to extract."
The system didn't hesitate and directly gave Luo Xiu the answer he wanted. However, Luo Xiu felt that things weren't that simple.
However, at this moment, these weren't important to him. The most important thing was to find out how he could get close to the source of the Baleful Earth Qi.
As Luo Xiu went deeper into the cave, Luo Xiu could already see the source of the smoke-like Baleful Earth Qi. This was a spacious lava cave. The walls of the cave had been eroded by the Baleful Earth Qi, forming a terrifyingly huge space. In this space, there were strange patterns that made one's scalp go numb. They were like worms that were constantly wriggling.
At this moment, Luo Xiu saw that on the ground of this huge cave, there was a fair-skinned man with half his body buried in the ground. At this moment, the man was standing there with his eyes tightly shut. If he didn't know that this person was already dead, just by looking at his appearance, one could tell that this person was an extremely terrifying expert.
After seeing the fair-skinned man's appearance, Luo Xiu couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. He didn't know how long this person had been dead. However, from the dense Baleful Earth Qi that soared from the top of his head, Luo Xiu knew that this man's cultivation must be extremely terrifying.
This kind of special Baleful Earth Qi was formed due to being isolated for a long time. If this corpse didn't have a powerful cultivation, no matter how strong the Baleful Earth Qi was, it wouldn't be able to form such a special environment.
However, Luo Xiu suddenly rubbed his eyes in disbelief. This was because he saw a scene that made him flabbergasted. Not far behind the fair-skinned man, because the fair-skinned man's body was exposed higher, he neglected the two corpses beside him. Seeing this scene, Luo Xiu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This was because from the position of the three corpses, it was obvious that they had perished together during the battle.
"System, are you mistaken? Other than the influence of the Earth Terminus Aura, there are no other effects?
Help me see if there is any other problem. If there isn't, let's take a closer look. I can see that these three corpses are obviously not ordinary people. Let's see if we can seize the opportunity to plunder some heavenly treasures. It would be helpful for my cultivation. "Looking at the three corpses, Luo Xiu knew that his opportunity had arrived.
Although he didn't know why the three of them would fight here and perish together, he knew clearly that the person who was able to emit such a terrifying Earth Baleful Qi, not to mention his powerful cultivation, his collection was definitely extremely rich. This caused Luo Xiu to be extremely excited in his heart.
It wasn't because he valued this, but because he knew that this was his only chance. The situation that happened here before was definitely not something he could understand. Most importantly, he knew his current situation. As long as he could get the treasures left behind by these people, he could quietly slip away.
"It's okay. Just go and search. These people are still in a state of death, but they still have a chance to be resurrected. So don't be careless. At least don't let the corpses absorb their blood. Otherwise, we will be in big trouble." The System warned Luo Xiu.
This was because Luo Xiu knew that the system had a heaven-defying life detector. Any method of holding one's breath and concentrating would be useless in front of the system. That was why he trusted the system's judgment so much. After all, to him, the system was the most correct in this situation.
Therefore, Luo Xiu stopped talking nonsense. He cautiously approached the three corpses while constantly absorbing and refining the Baleful Earth Qi. Now, for some reason that he didn't understand, Luo Xiu could only absorb a limited amount of Baleful Earth Qi even when he was close to the three corpses.
The reason why he still wanted to absorb the Baleful Earth Qi was that it was better than nothing. However, as Luo Xiu continued to approach, Luo Xiu's heart pounded. This was because he saw the sword marks on the ground. Luo Xiu knew that these weren't marks of a battle, but a kind of strange combination celestial device. This thing was a combination type spiritual treasure that was formed by combining countless small weapons. However, it looked like it had been damaged by a fierce battle.
Looking at the three corpses in front of him, Luo Xiu guessed that because of the absolute low temperature here, their bodies didn't show any signs of decay. However, Luo Xiu knew that the strange temperature here was also caused by the powerful cultivation of the three corpses. This made Luo Xiu faintly guess.
However, he knew that it was impossible for him to do anything to the three corpses in the current situation. He was just unwilling to give up. If he could obtain the three corpses and refine them into his clones, then he wouldn't have to worry about being chased to the ends of the earth like before, whether it was a one-on-one or a group fight.
