n“Shall we talk?”

nA voice came from outside, reaching Lu Ming’s ears.

nIt was Jiu Han.

nLu Ming nodded slightly, “Sure, let’s talk.”

nAs he spoke, he proactively opened the restrictions of the manor. Jiu Han and Bai Zhe walked into Lu Ming’s manor.

nBeside the two of them was a yellow blurry ball of air, and Lu Ming quickly recognized it as the demonic qi clone of the Desolate Demon Lord.

nWith a wave of his hand, four round stools and a round table appeared on the open ground.

n“Teacher, please sit, and two Seniors, please sit.”

nAfter inviting everyone to take a seat, Lu Ming sat down.

nThe few of them looked at each other and were silent for a long time.

nLu Ming was waiting for Jiu Han and the others to speak.

nHowever, Jiu Han and the others did not know where to start.

nThings had developed too quickly.

nIt was so fast that they could not react.

nIn the blink of an eye, Jiu Han’s last disciple had gone from the Quasi-God Realm to the Divine Spirit Realm… and not just an ordinary Divine Spirit Realm expert, but a Divine Spirit Realm expert with three divinities, walking on the right path of the divine spirit realm.

nThe biggest question among them was… how did he complete the creation of the divinities alone?

nIn short, Lu Ming’s secrets were too big and there were too many doubtful points. There were so many that Jiu Han did not know where to begin.

nSeeing Jiu Han stammering, Lu Ming smiled and took the initiative to speak.

n“After Teacher left, 1…”

nHe started when Jiu Han went to the front lines.

nHe spoke about the opening of the Blood Demon Gate and how he had to study array formations to protect the Three Elements Academy.

nLater, he discovered the research project Jiu Han left behind, which led him to the path of an Outer Dao God that Jiu Han had mentioned to him. He then used earth-shattering array formation knowledge to thoroughly figure out this path.

nHe skipped the details but still left Jiu Han and Bai Zhe dumbfounded…

nIt sounded simple, but doing this was simply harder than ascending to the heavens.

n“In short, that’s about it. Looking at the power system on Vicky’s clone, my path should be fine…”

nConcluding his words, Lu Ming looked at Jiu Han again.

n“Teacher, what have you experienced during this time?”

nUnder Lu Ming’s guidance, Jiu Han finally sorted out his thoughts. He thought for a moment and said, “1 learned about what happened in Xuanshui City from the front lines of the battlefield…”

nHe spoke slowly and tirelessly, recounting everything he had experienced. When Jiu Han mentioned the crystal left behind by Lord Deun, Lu Ming immediately interrupted, “Can you tell me more about this?”

nJiu Han immediately nodded, “Of course.”

nHe conveyed to Lu Ming the information recorded in the crystal word for word. Lu Ming thought about it briefly but shook his head helplessly, “It’s useless to me.”

nIf he didn’t understand anything, and didn’t know anything, the information recorded in Lord Deun’s crystal could be considered a treasure!

nHowever, in Lu Ming’s eyes now, the things in the crystal were almost all nonsense.

nThis was because it did not provide the general outline of cultivation from the Spirit Realm to the Source Realm.

nThrough the crystals, he could only know that the cultivation outline of the Spirit Realm was to constantly spiritualize blood patterns, the more the better… However, how to break through from the Spirit Realm to the Source Realm—of course, this was referring to the breakthrough in the true sense.

nLord Deun did not give an answer.

nRubbing his forehead, Lu Ming thought about it but did not feel bothered anymore.

nHe was still in the transformation stage and had not even reached the Spirit Realm, so there was no reason to worry about such distant matters.

nLu Ming’s gaze wandered outside, and a moment later, he asked Bai Zhe and the Desolate Demon Lord,

n“Let’s talk about our next destination.”

n“The Black Mist, the anomalies, and that place called the Dead Sea.”

nIn fact, Vicky was entering the area covered by the black mist for the first time.

nAs soon as he entered, Vicky felt that something was wrong.

nAs a true Spirit Realm expert, although Vicky did not attract the anomalies and was not isolated from the perception of the black mist, he could sense that the surrounding black mist had a sticky suction force on him.

nIt was like a normal person entering the water… no, it should be said that it was like a normal person soaking in a sea of syrup.

nAlthough he could still breathe with the oxygen cylinder inserted, his every movement, every word, carried an indescribable sense of restraint.

nDue to the existence of this sense of restraint, Vicky could not unleash his full strength, and his overall strength was weakened by at least 80%.

nAt the same time, he kept having a bad premonition in his heart.

nHis perception was also compressed.

nEven so, Vicky could still vaguely sense the traces of Lu Ming and the others in the distance—he did not lose track of Lu Ming.

nAfter thinking about it, the greed in his heart overwhelmed everything.

n“The opportunity is right in front of me. Do I have any reason to give up halfway?”

n“What is the black mist? We don’t know.”

n“What are anomalies? We don’t know either.”

nBai Zhe spoke first, uttering these two sentences, and Lu Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, seemingly writing a question mark on his face.

nSeeing this, Bai Zhe smiled bitterly, “Zero didn’t say that much.”

n“Zero knows a lot. He’s also the leader of our subversives. Although we will tell the outside world that the leader of our subversives is someone else, it’s just for mystery. The real leader is Zero.”

n“The terms like black mist, anomalies, and the Dead Sea are all told to us by Zero.”

n“In addition, there’s also the Harvest Period.”

n“The appearance of the black mist and the anomalies is the external manifestation of the Harvest Period.”

nJiuhan had just told Lu Ming about the concept of the Harvest Period. At this moment, Bai Zhe repeated it again. Lu Ming was not tired of it and just listened attentively.

nIt was not until Bai Zhe concluded, “In short, this Black Mist Zone is actually the garden of the Supreme God. The winners of the Heaven Ascension Stairs, which is the Divine Spirit Realm in its original sense, are the mature saplings that could be harvested. The ordinary non-Divine Spirit Realm saplings are prepared vegetables.”

n“As for the Harvest Period, when winter comes, the garden will restart and wait for the next spring to sow and fertilize again.”

n“This explanation is not correct.” Lu Ming immediately opened his mouth to refute, “There are too few of them, the number is too small. It takes a whole generation that ascends to the heavens to select a Divine Spirit Realm expert, but creating a divinity doesn’t take so much time.”

nIf it was just raising pigs, the Supreme God’s way of raising pigs would be too few.

nIf it were Lu Ming, he would have to produce 180 of them in a year.

nBai Zhe shook his head, “I’m not sure about that.”

nAt the side, the Desolate Demon Lord’s demonic qi clone added, “The Dead Sea is the origin of the Black Mist and the Anomalies.”

n“It’s located deep underground, with an infinite area. Considering that we don’t know how deep the Dead Sea is, 1 feel that the space there is even much larger than our so-called Black Mist Zone’s surface area.”

nThis was also the reason why the Desolate Demon Lord suggested hiding in the Dead Sea.

nAfter they finished speaking, Lu Ming’s gaze wandered as he looked out of the tower.

nIn the outside world, the Desolate Demon Lord, with the Boshi Tower, avoided the anomalies and traversed dangerous places.

nVery soon, they appeared in front of the Ten Thousand Devil Abyss.

nThe voice of the Desolate Demon Lord suddenly sounded in Lu Ming’s ears.

n“Actually, there’s another reason why 1 suggested coming to the Dead Sea.”

nLu Ming turned to look at the Desolate Demon Lord’s demonic qi clone and saw the Desolate Demon Lord saying in a deep voice,

n“There might be a passageway here to leave the Black Mist Zone..”

n
