Due to the effects of the Black Iron city wall, the Spiritual Force inside wasn’t as abundant as in the mountains and dense fields outside. Therefore, the Sword Masters who entered the semi-finals all left the city to find a quiet environment to cultivate.

Lou Mu Yan and Ye Qing Han’s two teams were also looking for a suitable place to cultivate after they left the city.

“Mu Yan, what sort of place are we going to find to cultivate in?” Ye Qing Han asked curiously when he saw her searching around.

Lou Mu Yan rubbed her chin and after pondering, she said: “Find a place with the densest Spiritual Force. I think I’ve already found it. Follow me.”

Without Mo Yan, it was more troublesome for her to use her Mental Energy to search. Although the Spiritual Force of the mountains and forests in the outside world were abundant, but it was not as dense as the place where the evil Jiao chased her to last time. After pondering, she felt that it was more suitable for her to take them there to cultivate.

There was a lot of Spiritual Force near the deep pond; there were no high-level Demonic Beasts around the territory that the Octopus Monster had occupied for a long time; and that place was also classified as a Class 2 Danger Zone where the Great Array couldn’t monitor, so it was very secretive.

In addition, other participating competitors generally wouldn’t set foot in a Danger Zone to cultivate, so it was actually the safest for them to go there.

When Lou Mu Yan brought them to the dense fog forest from before, Yun Zi Mo said in surprise: “Isn’t this that Class 2 Danger Zone?”

“The most dangerous place is also the safest place. I was chased by the evil Jiao towards a deep pond. The place where the Octopus Monster and he fought until they were both defeated is abundant in Spiritual Force, and is very suitable for us to hide and cultivate.” Lou Mu Yan smiled and replied.

Her choices generally weren’t wrong, and everyone believed her, “Alright, we’ll listen to everything you say.”

So Lou Mu Yan took the group to the deep pond occupied by the Octopus Monster. Sure enough, because of the pressure and fear caused by the Octopus Monster, there were no other Demonic Beasts appearing in the vicinity.

The frozen ice in the deep pond still showed no signs of melting, and Lou Mu Yan had to sigh with emotion about Ming Xiu’s abnormally monstrous strength.

For the safety of the two teams, she took out the last set of jade stones she nourished and arranged a Nine Palace Array. From the outside, no one could detect their auras, and if a human or Demonic Beast forced their way in, they would also be lost in the Array.

Afterwards, she buried the set of jade stones needed to arrange the Array in a place with the densest Spiritual Force.

“The Spiritual Force here is indeed much more abundant than outside.” Mu Yi said with a smile.

Shi Feng didn’t show much emotion, but his eyes were filled with joy, “The territory occupied by a Tier 8 Demonic Beast will naturally not be bad.”

There just so happened to be a barren mountain near the deep pond. The group made a cave in the barren mountain and lived there, preparing to speed up their cultivation for three months before exiting to snatch jade tablets.

Time passed in a hurry. A month later, Lou Mu Yan’’ cultivation base advanced to Middle-Phase Sword Monarch and her Foundation Establishment Stage was also in the late-layers. When she reached Peak-Phase Sword Monarch, she believed that her Foundation Establishment Stage would be able to reach the Final-Layer.

Because of her special constitution, she could comprehend all the Laws of Heaven and earth, so even if her cultivation speed was double or triple the speed of others, her advancement speed was affected by it.

She used her Mental Energy to probe into the Spirit Beast Ring and found that Mo Yan was currently wrapped in a large net of blue flames and his aura was sometimes strong, sometimes weak. He was probably still refining the Octopus Monster’s Demonic Spirit.

“Owner, after staying in the cave for so long, let’s go out and look for some Spiritual Herbs.” Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s cultivation base advancing one phase, Bing Ji knew she wouldn’t continue to cultivate anymore, so he urged.

Lou Mu Yan glanced at him, “I’m really suspicious about how you cultivated your Tier 8 cultivation base.”

“I’m a genuine Tier 8, so of course my talent is exceptional.” Bing Ji raised his head proudly.

“With you being so lazy and only wanting to go out for a walk all day long, if you continue like this, Xue Xue and Miao Miao would’ve advanced to Tier 9 and you’ll still be standing in the same spot.”

Bing Ji had a very active and lively temperament and simply couldn’t sit still at all. It was already really good for him to have cultivated in the cave for a month. Lou Mu Yan really couldn’t figure out how he used to cultivate to Tier 8.

Bing Ji pursed his lips and muttered quietly: “Isn’t it because my Demonic Energy is sealed by your man, so it’s very tiring to cultivate.”

“Don’t find excuses.” Lou Mu Yan reached out and knocked him on the head, “Ming Xiu suppressed the Demonic Energy in you, so it’s difficult for you to cultivate now, but it can make the Demonic Energy in your body more pure, and when the Seal is broken, it’ll have more benefits for you.

“You’d better cultivate hard, otherwise when Miao Miao and Xue Xue surpass you, I’ll watch where you’ll place your old face.” Lou Mu Yan knew that this kind of blow would be more effective for Bing Ji who loved face.

Sure enough Bing Ji’s small eyes swept over Miao Miao and Xue Xue, as if he had been stimulated, “Owner, I’ll continue to go cultivate now. They want to surpass me? No way.”

He was already suppressed by Mo Yan. If those two things also surpassed him, then how much face would he lose!

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him, “Let’s go out for a walk first and along the way, get some Crystal Cores for you to come back to refine.”

“Little Owner is the best, then I’ll cultivate when I return.” Bing Ji rubbed his head against Lou Mu Yan’s shoulder.

“Sycophant!” Miao Miao snorted.

Xue Xue also agreed with a response: “Crazy flatterer.”

“What do you two children know? Humph!” Bing Ji snorted.

Lou Mu Yan was too lazy to pay attention to them. Seeing that Lou Mu Bai and the others were still meditating and cultivating, she went out alone.

There must be something special about this mountain forest for it to be classified as a Class 2 Danger Zone. There should definitely be no shortage of Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Items. Now that her Mental Energy had recovered, she would be able to find what she needed with just a bit of effort.

After leaving the cave opened in the barren mountain, she gave some maintenance to the Array before leaping towards the depths.

Five days later, a purple figure fled in a sorry state, followed by a group of wasp-like Demonic Beasts the size of fists.

Seeing a small stream ahead of her, Lou Mu Yan jumped down without hesitation. The large group of Demonic Beasts that looked like wasps were a little afraid of water, and wandered around the stream for a day before gradually leaving.

Lou Mu Yan surfaced from the water and looked in the direction in which the Demonic Beasts left with fiery desire in her eyes, “When the competition is almost over, I’ll come to subdue you all.”

“Owner, what are doing going to poke a Scarlet Bee’s nest1!” Bing Ji was stung a few times causing huge lumps and complained with a weak look.

“Naturally to scoop out some Scarlet Bee honey. That’s a good thing.” Lou Mu Yan’s expression revealed a bit of interest, “And don’t you think it’d be super cool to have a bee colony as a Spirit Pet?”

If she didn’t have Flash Steps and a load of means to escape, she would’ve probably died in that Scarlet Bee nest.

Bing Ji rolled his eyes, “The thing is good, but you also need to have the life to take it!”

It wasn’t easy to subdue such a swarm of Scarlet Bees. He felt that Lou Mu Yan was truly indulging in the wildest fantasy.

“Although the Queen of that Scarlet Bee colony is only a Tier 7 Demonic Beast, but it could breed countless Tier 5 and 6 Scarlet Bees. Not to mention subdue, it was even difficult to get close to.”

“I know. So isn’t it that I’m waiting for until my strength advances a little more before going again.” The fieriness in Lou Mu Yan’s eyes didn’t subside, but only grew stronger.

Seeing the heat in her eyes, Bing Ji couldn’t resist twitching the corner of his lips. Owner’s hobby was truly weird!

Lou Mu Yan was about to rest for a while, but suddenly turned her gaze towards a place not far away.

“There’s a fight ahead, let’s go and take a look.”
