Chapter 860: The Legacy Dwelling Emerges
"It seems the last contender is the Blood Sea Demon Lord."
"This one is a bit tricky."
"This person's attacking power is immense, and his cultivation level far exceeds my own. He is certainly not someone of Nangong Tian's caliber."
As Liu Yu gazed at the Blood Sea Demon Lord from a distance, various thoughts flashed through his mind.
This opponent was incomparable to Nangong Tian; even if he revealed all his trump cards now, he could at most match him in battle.
But that state wouldn't last long, and once time was up, he would inevitably be defeated.
"Let's act according to the situation."
"The cave dwelling world has its advantages. The enormous commotion won't reveal itself to the outside world."
"If I encounter this person while fighting for the Creation Green Lotus, I should consider using the Sword of Ruin."
Furrowing and then relaxing his brow, Liu Yu thought silently.
Only by obtaining the Creation Green Lotus could his Primordial Spirit cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, and the chances of overcoming the divine transformation bottleneck in the future would be much greater. This item was crucial.
In matters concerning a thousand-year plan, he could not afford to hesitate, even if it meant using a spiritual treasure.
With Liu Yu's cultivation rising, the power of the Sword of Ruin he could summon had naturally increased as well.
By now, he was able to cross the boundary from the fourth stage to the fifth stage, reaching levels unimaginable even to true lords.
Even if he had only one strike's worth of power, it was not impossible to annihilate a great cultivator.
"Since the Blood Sea Demon Lord has arrived, it seems the last of the three from earlier has already been eliminated."
Liu Yu exchanged glances with Ink Plum, both having the same thought.
The matter of the Mountain-Shift Legacy Dwelling was of great significance; if they carelessly disclosed information, stronger cultivators could become greedy and attempt to take everything.
It was precisely for this reason that Ink Plum had kept silent over the years, revealing information only to Liu Yu.
Now, with the Blood Sea Demon Lord taking the place of the last contender, his fate was self-evident.
This person's strength theoretically surpassed that of anyone else present, indeed giving him the capital to act alone.
A single person could make a team!
However, such situations were commonplace in the cultivation world. Everyone soon realized they need not focus on the last absent contender.
With the arrival of the Blood Sea Demon Lord, the atmosphere over the plain grew increasingly strange, with the three parties standing off against each other at a distance of several dozen miles.
Although there were undercurrents flowing, no one showed any inclination to attack for the time being.
Theoretically, the combination of Liu Yu and Ink Plum was the weakest one; the Blood Sea Demon Lord had the strongest individual strength, while the Heavenly Lotus team boasted the strongest overall capabilities.
Each side had its advantages, but it was still not enough to take down the other two sides collectively.
Though the Blood Sea Demon Lord was strong, the gap was not insurmountably large, and Liu Yu and the Evil Eye True Lord joining forces would likely be enough to contend with him.
Thus, despite any actions they might take, the three factions of cultivators remained still, quietly waiting for the legacy dwelling to open.
...
In the blink of an eye, three more days had passed.
It had been half a month since they arrived in this plain.
Even with Liu Yu's considerable patience, waiting without any sign of movement for half a month still led him to frown secretly.
Had it not been for the presence of the Heavenly Lotus True Monarch and the Blood Sea Demon Lord, he might have been tempted to consider that Ink Plum was deceiving herself.
"Mm?!"
It wasn't until the eighteenth day that, as Liu Yu bore patiently, some sort of commotion suddenly erupted around him.
His exceptionally sharp spiritual perception was immediately stimulated.
