Three days later, with the help of the golden dragon lord, the Spirit Vessel traveled six million miles through the void.
Life cannot be revived once lost. Tan Yun transformed his grief into motivation, firmly resolving to diligently cultivate and elevate his realm, seeking vengeance for his subordinates who died because of him.
"Little Gold and Little Demon are gone, but now I have the demonic ape and the divine lion accompanying me. Perhaps this is my greatest comfort!"
The Heavenly Palace was too vast, so Tan Yun decided to leave the palace in its place for now. In the future, when he became stronger, he would take the palace away and give a grand burial to the remains of the demonic dragon and the divine dragon within.
The Heavenly Palace was once set up by him, with the Thousand Dragon Forbidden Sky Formation, so Tan Yun was not worried that anyone could break the formation and disturb his deceased subordinates.
As for the starry moonring illusion array that he had deactivated, it would automatically reactivate in ten days. Apart from the high-level members of the sect, no one would be able to find the location of the Heavenly Palace.
Thinking of this, Tan Yun recalled the golden dragon spirit lion and the heavenly slayer demon ape, which he had inherited. They would take a minimum of five years and a maximum of ten years to awaken. Though they couldn't assist him for now, they would certainly become powerful allies in the future!
Tan Yun calculated that since the beginning of his trials, a year and seven months had passed. In four months, the Seed of Time and Space Sacred Tower in the Ruins City would open.
One day of cultivation inside the sacred tower equated to fifty days in the outside world, and one month of cultivation inside was equivalent to over four years in the outside world.
Tan Yun understood that after killing Linghu Changkong and Murong Kun, he would inevitably offend the chief elder of the Holy Spirit Lineage and the second elder of the Beast Spirit Lineage. Therefore, with a thirst for elevation, he certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to cultivate in the Seed of Time and Space Sacred Tower!
At the same time, two people had to die in Tan Yun's heart.
They were Liu Rulong's master, Elder Law Enforcement Qiu Yongcong, and Liu Rulong's adoptive father, Elder Ten Guo Zhengshou!
Back then, Qiu Yongcong had his enforcement disciples bring him to the Hall of Discipline.
Guo Zhengshou didn't even give him the chance to salute, and after three slaps that humiliated him, he planned to frame Tan Yun for a crime punishable by death in collusion with Qiu Yongcong, wanting to execute him publicly!
If it weren't for Xue Ziyan seeking help from Elder Shen Qingqiu, who arrived just in time to stop it, he would have been in grave danger!
"Guo Zhengshou, Qiu Yongcong, the day my trials end will be the day I take your lives!"
After making up his mind, Tan Yun entered the Spirit Vessel's cultivation chamber, sitting cross-legged. He controlled the Spirit Vessel to fly while unleashing the primordial chaos condensation technique, frantically absorbing the world's spiritual energy, and began his secluded cultivation.
Time flew by, and after sixty-five days, he ignited the last piece of Supreme Spirit Stone in the Spirit Vessel, depleting his spiritual power, as the vessel plunged toward the sea of clouds!
"Whoosh!"
Tan Yun stepped onto his Flying Sword and shot out from the Spirit Vessel, quickly putting it away in the Qiankun Ring. He then rode the Flying Sword, heading towards the eastern Sky-reaching Giant Formation at a speed of eighty thousand miles a day, covering over three million miles.
After more than two months of cultivation, Tan Yun hadn't yet sensed the barrier of the fourth level of fetal soul realm, but he knew that with his talent, he would need three more months to perceive it.
Last time, Tan Yun had to undergo four months of seclusion before he could touch the barrier between the second and third levels of the fetal soul realm. Now, it would take him five months to sense the barrier between the third and fourth levels. This clearly showed that as the realm increased, the time required also lengthened!
