Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 987, 1 year

Ye Qing stepped out of the room, a slight thought stirring in his heart.

He did not explicitly state that his true nature was that of a bronze ancient tree.

Having come this far, especially after interacting with these top geniuses, Ye Qing also discovered a problem: the Bronze Ancient Tree within his body is very special, but among the thirty-six unique characteristics, there is no Bronze Ancient Tree.

At this age and level, characteristics can determine many things, and Ye Qing, with several characteristics, is in no way inferior to unique characteristics.

Twin traits are rare in this world, but they do exist.

These five characteristics have also appeared before.

However, with five characteristics and two rare traits, it almost never appears.

Ye Qing also knew something about the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart; it was a unique characteristic, but the characteristic itself was fixed. Moreover, there was only one rare characteristic among them.

Ye Qing is different. With each realm he enters, he awakens a new characteristic. Currently, there are still two flower buds on his bronze ancient tree.

The sixth flower bud is about to bloom, and once he breaks through to immortality, he will most likely awaken his sixth characteristic.

Moreover, it is highly likely that this characteristic will remain one of the rare characteristics.

Therefore, Ye Qing felt that his own characteristics were very mysterious. Although he had established a certain alliance with the natives, he was still much weaker than them, which was beyond doubt.

So he thought he should try to hide it as much as possible.

Upon arriving at the door, Zhuo Bufan and Chen Xuan were waiting there. Zhuo Bufan took a deep breath and said, "If you have any needs regarding cultivation, please feel free to ask. Whether it's rare and precious treasures or other elixirs, as long as we have them here, we will cooperate!"

Yun Jin chuckled and said, "Genius treasures that can help you break through to the Immortal level! Give me some, and find me a relatively desolate area, otherwise I'm afraid the devouring properties will affect others during my breakthrough!"

"Okay!" Zhuo Bufan nodded and said, "I'll find you a more secluded place!"

"I need some pills and materials suitable for our cultivation!" Ye Qing said.

"There's plenty of Transcendent Pills suitable for Transcendent-level cultivation!" Zhuo Bufan said.

Unlike Yun Jin, they weren't arranged to live outside; they simply asked for a quiet room.

The following period was a period of complete seclusion for them.

The energy of heaven and earth in this place was extremely rich, and with the constant replenishment from the Transcendent Pill, Ye Qing and his group had no worries.

Time is passing by silently.

More than half a month after arriving in this small world, Ye Qing consumed a large number of Transcendent Pills and, after digesting and absorbing them, finally became the first to break through to the peak of the Extraordinary Realm.

After that, Ye Qing continued his seclusion and, lacking elixirs, asked Zhuo Bufan for some.

Zhuo Bufan seems to have accumulated a considerable amount of wealth, and when he said he had enough, he wasn't just saying it casually.

The time required to break through such a deadly barrier is certainly not as fast as absorbing the marrow cleansing pool.

As time passed, six months after they arrived, Yun Jin successfully broke through to the Immortal level, and his entire being underwent a tremendous transformation! His physical body and aura also improved dramatically!

A month after his breakthrough, he consolidated his realm and then found Zhuo Bufan. He decided to leave this place before Ye Qing and the others to seek some more opportunities in the outside world.

Because Ye Qing and the others were in seclusion, they didn't even have time to say goodbye to Ye Qing. They only told Ye Qing and the others that if they didn't meet him in the Death Gobi, they should remember to look for him on the Holy Mountain.

Afterwards, Yun Jin took the ultimate technique and left the place alone.

This is my ninth month here!

A bird's song resounded throughout the heavens and earth, and Lin Qianyu's body underwent a transformation. Her divine bones became clear and transparent, and she officially stepped into the realm of immortality.

He became the second being to break through to the immortal level.

After that, he quietly consolidated his cultivation level.

Before we knew it, another three months had passed!

A year has passed since Ye Qing and his group entered the small world inhabited by the natives.

One year and three months have passed since Ye Qing and his group entered the Genius Battle.

On this day, in the tallest building in the village, Zhuo Bufan stood respectfully and said, "There is a strange force constantly surging in this direction from the outside."

“I’ve already sensed it. It’s the power of cause and effect. It’s not too far from our little world. However, we’re hiding inside the mountain. Once Ye Qing and the others leave, we’ll seal it again, and this place won’t be affected. Has Ye Qing not broken through yet?”

Zhuo Bufan shook his head and said, "Not yet. This guy is very strange. He absorbs pills at an incredibly fast speed. Moreover, at the peak of the extraordinary realm, he needs a lot of energy, including these pills, which are even two or three times more than Lin Qianyu and Yun Jin!"

"This little fellow is indeed very special!" the old man said. "However, everyone has their own secrets, so I won't pry further! How long will it take for that force of cause and effect to cover our area?"

"Judging from the speed at which that causal power is spreading, it will likely completely cover this place in about five days. We need to get them out of here, otherwise, once the seal is formed, they won't be able to leave either," Zhuo Bufan said. "It's just a pity that Ye Qing can't break through!"

“Give him a Bodhi seed!” the old man said at that moment.

"Ah!" Zhuo Bufan's expression changed. "Ancestor, the Bodhi is too important to you. It takes a thousand years for the Bodhi to bloom, a thousand years to bear fruit, and a thousand years to mature. Only a few seeds mature each time. This is very important to you!"

“A thousand years…” the old man murmured. “For them, a thousand years is enough time for us to take a gamble. Perhaps after a thousand years, we will have left this place, and giving them only one should not have a big impact. They will have trouble outside, and you will not be able to go out with them. Letting him enter immortality will also bring us many benefits!”

……

A year is not a long time! In the context of cultivation, it's just a fleeting moment.

At this moment, in a deep, ancient forest in the spirit world.

A figure slowly walked out from within. He had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and was exceptionally handsome. It was none other than Jiang Shengyang!

At this moment, his eyes were filled with murderous intent. He clenched his fist and said, "I will avenge this one punch!"

As the words fell, an aura of peak immortality erupted from his body at that moment!
