Chapter 2145 - 2143: Star Abyss Gate Opens

Compared to before, Lu Ye feels that his cultivation efficiency has increased several times over, even under the restrictions of the Magic Source.

If the refining of the Magic Source could match the speed of the Talent Tree's absorption, the efficiency growth would be even more terrifying.

In just half a month, he felt the flow of mana within him break through a bottleneck, reaching another level, and at that moment, the limit his body could contain expanded suddenly, making the mana more condensed than before.

This undoubtedly means his mana will possess greater destructive power.

This is a sign of breakthrough.

Sun Blaze Late Stage!

Counting carefully, he has been diligently cultivating within the Star Abyss for many years, not to mention the spirit jades and spirit crystals he had, which were exhausted, nearly all the spirit jades, spirit crystals, and elixir pills brought by others were consumed by him.

Recently, at Mount Fangcun, he gained considerable benefits; now it's indeed time to advance.

Slowly opening his eyes, having just advanced in his breakthrough, Lu Ye wants to know if his previous assumptions were correct.

Sun Blaze Late Stage, with his foundation elevated, should allow him to wield the power of the 8th Dao.

Thinking thus in his heart, Lu Ye first activated the power of the 7th Dao, with ease and without any pressure, immediately knowing his thoughts were correct.

Boosting another Dao power, the feeling of wielding the 7th Dao as before emerged, the pressure descended upon him invisibly from all over, although not too intense, but if engaged in a fight, it would be unsustainable.

Sure enough, his current Sun Blaze Late Stage strength can barely handle the power of the 8th Dao.

This satisfies him.

Not wasting any time, he continues cultivating; this time, he wants to push his mana to the limit of Sun Blaze in one go!

The Star Abyss Gate will open soon, the Star Abyss invasion is imminent, so he must improve himself swiftly.

Cultivation knows no years.

While Lu Ye is in seclusion for cultivation, the entire stellar space prepares its forces, with various factions gathered at the five stellar space vulnerabilities, ready to respond.

Half a year later, within the Nine Provinces, the first Spirit Jade Vein was born, marking the Nine Provinces finally joining the top-tier domains sequence, although still quite a way from the peak of the former Nine Provinces, this is ultimately a good beginning.

The billion beings of the Nine Provinces rejoice and excitement bubbles.

Simultaneously, under the coordination and dispatching of Tree Elder, the first group of Sun Blaze stage experts from various stellar space forces entered the Nine Provinces, aided by Number Nine in channeling the Nine Provinces' foundation to assist their rapid growth.

This batch of Sun Blaze, numbering just over a hundred people, were seasoned Sun Blaze Late Stage cultivators like Woo Qimo and Zhang Kun, who had no issues with polishing Soul Suppressing Secret Technique; what they lacked was merely mana accumulation.

Once they cross this threshold, they will surely become Peak Sun Blaze.

Some months before the Nine Provinces began, the Soul Race ancestral land welcomed guests from all directions, led by the Soul Race to enter the ancestral land, each settled in different Lotus Land locations for cultivation.

Stellar space experiences unprecedented peace, all beings, regardless of race or factional roots, have united their forces solely to confront the impending disaster.

Three years pass in the blink of an eye.

All Phenomena Ocean, Jade Sword Island.

The upheaval of yesteryears nearly annihilated the cultivators on Jade Sword Island, even destroyed all buildings.

However, now, a batch of buildings has risen again on the island, and due to changes in stellar spirit energy over the years, what used to be a merely upper-class Spirit Island has now become a top-class Spirit Island, brimming with spirit energy.

There are now not many people on the island, less than ten people, all of whom are Sun Blaze stage.

These Sun Blaze originates from various forces, with different racial backgrounds, but all are accumulations of many years reaching Peak Sun Blaze.

Besides them are Jiu Yan and Chong Yue, with Lu Ye's Talent Tree Avatar present.

With predictions that the Star Abyss Gate's opening will still be near Jade Sword Island, naturally, over the years, everyone has maintained vigilance over this area.

There had been no movements until half a month ago when news came of changes in space at the previous opening location of the Star Abyss Gate.

Jiu Yan and Chong Yue rushed over immediately, joined by Lu Ye's Talent Tree Avatar.

That piece of Void showed some distinct abnormal fluctuations, ebbing and flowing, and during this half-month, the position gradually distorted.

As time passed, the distortion became more apparent, with faint red light permeating.

Until one moment...

"It's here!" Chong Yue exclaimed in a low voice.

With his voice falling, the twisted Void seemed to melt, suddenly collapsing, exposing a vast red light, imprinting the familiar red vortex into Lu Ye's view.

The Star Abyss Gate has opened!

Long before, as everyone returned from the Star Abyss, Tree Elder predicted that the Star Abyss Gate would open within three to five years, and now at this time, that prediction is indeed correct.

Behind the three, the myriad Sun Blaze stage individuals are both nervous and excited.

Nervous because they have comprehended the strength of Star Abyss living creatures, incomparable to stellar space cultivators, excited because the Star Abyss Gate has opened, the Star Abyss ambience invades, and they finally have the opportunity to further themselves.

Only Lu Ye, along with the other two, remain calm as water, with three silhouettes standing not far from the Star Abyss Gate, even having the leisure to idle chat.

"This Star Abyss ambience... is so thin," Chong Yue frowned.

"It's just the beginning of the invasion, naturally it's like this."

"In such an environment, can we really establish a Dao foundation?"

"At the very least, there is a precedent of success on the Cover Armor stellar space side, but no need to worry, the Star Abyss ambience will become more intense in the future."

"That's true."

From the twisted red vortex, a silhouette suddenly walked out slowly. Lu Ye focused his eyes and found that the newcomer looked somewhat familiar, much like the ox demon that came out of the Star Abyss last time. Here's another ox demon.

It's uncertain whether the Star Abyss on the other side is a gathering place for ox demons.

The aura of this ox demon wasn't powerful, only at the Sun Blaze Late Stage level, and the Dao force was quite thin, undoubtedly someone who hadn't forged a Dao foundation.

As soon as he appeared, he greedily absorbed the surrounding spirit energy, showing a cruel smile: "Finally... I've entered!"

Then his gaze was drawn to the three of them, not paying attention to Lu Ye and Chong Yue at all, but instead scrutinizing Jiu Yan with great interest, extending a hand and beckoning her: "Kneel before me, submit to me, serve me, become my plaything, and I'll spare your life!"

Jiu Yan's eyebrow twitched, she punched at him, and in an instant, a fist shadow aimed at the ox demon.

"Hahaha!" The ox demon laughed wildly, "The power of a giant ant, daring to shake a mighty tree..."

He then threw a punch to meet it.

But his entire body was shattered by that fist shadow, leaving only two small legs which fell into the All Phenomena Ocean.

Lu Ye glanced at Jiu Yan, who bowed her head: "Couldn't hold back..."

According to the plan, they weren't supposed to deal with these initially emerged Void creatures because the Star Abyss Gate had just opened, and those coming from the Star Abyss were the weakest creatures, perfect for the Sun Blazes to practice and appreciate the intricacies of Dao force directly.

But that ox demon chose the wrong target by provoking Jiu Yan and got killed by a single punch.

Luckily, another Star Abyss cultivator's silhouette soon emerged from the red vortex, but before he could steady himself, three figures from Jade Sword Island rushed forward to attack in unison.

All three were at Peak Sun Blaze, and together were virtually unrivaled in the stellar space, yet after just a brief clash, they sensed the fearsome presence of the enemy.

The opponent's cultivation was not even at their level, certainly not at Peak Sun Blaze, but the trio's strikes couldn't shake him at all, whereas even a casual attack from the Star Abyss cultivator carried unimaginable destructive power.

Three of them teamed up and couldn't match him.

Only after two more people joined did they manage to stabilize the situation.

After a fierce skirmish that lasted a full hour, they exhausted the Star Abyss cultivator's Dao force before killing him.

The battle subsided, and the five Sun Blaze cultivators panted heavily, faces filled with horror; initially, seeing Jiu Yan easily kill an intruder, they didn't take them seriously, but only after experiencing it themselves did they understand the enemy's might.

And within this hour, more Star Abyss cultivators continued to come through.

Five more Sun Blaze cultivators joined forces to kill the enemies, but they could only tangle with one, while Jiu Yan, Chong Yue, or Lu Ye killed most of them.

Realizing the gap between them, the Sun Blazes lost the will to keep fighting; the result they achieved after joint combat for half a day couldn't compare to a single blow from Jiu Yan and the other two.

Returning to Jade Sword Island, each went into seclusion for cultivation.

Although the Star Abyss ambience was thin, there was still an environment for cultivation, and if lucky and well-prepared, it might be possible to forge a Dao foundation.

Lu Ye and the other two began alternating their watch at the Star Abyss Gate, and with their current strength, Star Abyss creatures were almost all killable.

Initially, the Star Abyss creatures were very weak, all without Dao foundations, and killing such enemies was no more difficult for the three than crushing ants.

But this was only temporary.

As time went by and the Star Abyss Gate stabilized and expanded, the invading cultivators from stellar space would grow stronger.

Following the opening of the Star Abyss Gate at All Phenomena Ocean, five months later, the Star Abyss Gate at the Destroyed Illusion Star Cluster also activated!

These two Star Abyss Gates, compared to the other three, were obviously weaker, All Phenomena Ocean's gate opened first because it had briefly opened once before.

The Destroyed Illusion Star Cluster's gate opened second due to Lu Ye and others' return.

Much like the All Phenomena Ocean, the first invaders were some insignificant Star Abyss creatures, with Chen Wulei and Chang Yu stationed, posing no threat to the stellar space.

News reached All Phenomena Ocean, and Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed Yin Luo acted according to his instructions before he left.

Under Lu Ye's guidance, she swore in the name of the Will of the Star Abyss to guard the Star Abyss Gate, so she once suggested to Lu Ye whether they should kill all attracted Star Abyss creatures to eliminate any invasion threat.

Lu Ye naturally refused!

Though he didn't deny Yin Luo had the ability, doing so would not be beneficial to the stellar space.

Without an invasion, stellar space cultivators would have no opponents to temper against, no Dao Bones to obtain, how could they grow more rapidly?

So before leaving, Lu Ye instructed Yin Luo that unless a Dao Fusion stage expert invaded, everything else should follow its natural course.
