Chapter 1694

Although both of them appeared calm, their hearts were extremely excited.

They knew their strength had improved greatly, and they were one step closer to achieving their goal of destroying the Xuesha Sect.

"Where do we go next?"

Prince Di Luomi looked at Hearing Ming Ying and asked.

Hearing Ming Ying pondered for a moment, then said, "We continue moving south. I heard there is a very dangerous beast forest there; we can search for some heavenly materials and earthly treasures there."

Prince Di Luomi nodded slightly, and the two immediately moved south.

The beast forest is a dangerous place, filled with countless beasts and dangers, but at the same time, it also contains countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

If they could obtain some help, they would be able to advance more quickly.

The two moved at incredible speed and soon arrived in a massive forest.

This forest contained all kinds of beasts and dangers.

After Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying entered the forest, they discovered many heavenly materials and earthly treasures; these treasures emitted faint spiritual energy that could help them cultivate more quickly.

"Be careful!"

Prince Di Luomi suddenly shouted, immediately leaping toward a tree to her side, while Hearing Ming Ying reacted instantly, leaping toward a tree to his side as well.

A black shadow suddenly swept past Prince Di Luomi's shoulder, then thrust toward Hearing Ming Ying's back.

"It's an Ink Snake!"

Hearing Ming Ying reacted extremely quickly; he immediately sidestepped to dodge, then threw a punch that blasted the black shadow away.

It was a massive snake-shaped beast, its body emitting black light, looking extremely eerie.

"This beast's strength is not bad; let us combine our efforts to kill it!"

Prince Di Luomi looked at the Ink Snake and said.

Hearing Ming Ying nodded slightly, and the two immediately launched their attack.

Their attacks were coordinated with perfect tacit understanding, moving as one, and although the Ink Snake was formidable, under their combined assault it was quickly defeated.

"This beast's strength is not bad; let us take it!"

Prince Di Luomi looked at the fallen Ink Snake and said.

They knew that only through constant battle and trials could they make themselves stronger.

She immediately took out a dagger and began dissecting the Ink Snake, while Hearing Ming Ying began cleaning the battlefield.

A few minutes later, they had organized everything.

Prince Di Luomi looked at a black core in her hand and felt a surge of joy in her heart.

Although this core was not as precious as the items obtained previously, it could still help her advance further.

"Where do we go next?"

Hearing Ming Ying looked at Prince Di Luomi and asked.

Prince Di Luomi pondered for a moment, then said, "We continue moving south. I heard there is a very dangerous beast forest there; we can search for some heavenly materials and earthly treasures there."

The beast forest is also filled with various miasmas; once an ordinary person steps inside, even if there are heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they cannot carry away many. It is better to circle the forest's outskirts, where there is a chance to encounter injured or exhausted beasts and seize their treasures; in this way, strength will improve faster, and there will be no danger whatsoever.

"There should be no beast forest in this direction," Hearing Ming Ying guessed.

"How do you know?" Prince Di Luomi asked curiously.

"Because..." Hearing Ming Ying was about to answer when he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura approaching.

A massive beast suddenly leaped out from the nearby woods and launched an attack on Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying.

"Be careful!" Prince Di Luomi shouted, then immediately dove to the right.

Hearing Ming Ying also reacted extremely quickly, diving to the left.

"It's a Mighty Demon Ape!" Prince Di Luomi recognized the beast.

"This fellow's strength is not inferior to the Xuesha Sect leader!"

Hearing Ming Ying's face looked very grim.

"Then we must not let it escape!"

Prince Di Luomi spoke and charged at the Mighty Demon Ape. Hearing Ming Ying immediately followed, and the two's attacks became even more perfectly coordinated.

Although the Mighty Demon Ape was extremely formidable, under the combined assault of Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying, it was quickly defeated.

"This fellow should fetch a good price."

Prince Di Luomi looked at the fallen Mighty Demon Ape and said.

"All that money will be mine in the future," Hearing Ming Ying said jokingly.

"Be careful; don't end up losing your life," Prince Di Luomi heard this and couldn't help but laugh. She knew Hearing Ming Ying was joking; what they needed most now was money. With money, they could cultivate better and find a way to destroy the Xuesha Sect more quickly.

The two stored the Mighty Demon Ape's corpse, then continued moving south. They knew this forest certainly held more dangers, but at the same time, it also contained more heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

As long as they were a little careful, they would surely achieve even greater gains.

Half an hour later, the two finally arrived in a massive forest. This forest contained all kinds of beasts, but there were no traces of humans.

"There should be no one else here," Prince Di Luomi said while looking into the forest. "What do you plan to do?" Hearing Ming Ying asked. "I want to go in and take a look," Prince Di Luomi said. "I heard there is a fruit called Green Lotus Fruit inside; if we can obtain it, our strength will advance further." "Green Lotus Fruit?" Hearing Ming Ying heard this and was somewhat surprised. "That is an extremely precious fruit; can we find it?" "As long as we are a little careful, we will surely find it," Prince Di Luomi said, then walked into the forest. Hearing Ming Ying immediately followed. After entering the forest, the two immediately began searching. They searched there for an hour and finally found two Green Lotus Fruits.

"These two Green Lotus Fruits will allow both of us to advance further in strength," Prince Di Luomi said while looking at the Green Lotus Fruits in her hand. "Where do we go next?"

"Let us return," Hearing Ming Ying said. "Although this place is dangerous, as long as we are a little careful, there will be no problem. Let us go to the Endless Sea next; perhaps we can find some good things there as well."

Prince Di Luomi heard this and felt somewhat tempted. She knew the Endless Sea was a good place for cultivation, but she had never been there. Now, hearing Hearing Ming Ying say this, she immediately decided to head to the Endless Sea.

The two left the beast forest and moved toward the Endless Sea. Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the Endless Sea. This was an independent sea area, containing all kinds of sea beasts and strange beasts, yet no one came to disturb it.

"This place is truly good," Prince Di Luomi said while looking at the Endless Sea. "What should we do next?"

"Let us search around," Hearing Ming Ying said, then walked toward the seaside. There were all kinds of reefs here, containing all kinds of sea beasts and strange beasts.

The two searched everywhere and soon discovered many good things. Among them, a massive sea beast contained a treasure called the Stabilizing Pearl inside its body; if they could obtain it, their strength would advance further.

The two immediately launched their attack. Although this sea beast was not weak, under their combined assault it was quickly defeated. Prince Di Luomi immediately rushed forward and stored the Stabilizing Pearl.

"This Dingzhu Pearl can make us even stronger," Di Luomi said, looking at the pearl in her hand. "Where should we go next?"

"We should still go to the Jibei Palace," Hearing Ming Ying said. "We have been away for too long; we should return."

Hearing this, Di Luomi could not help but miss the Jibei Palace. She knew she had been away for too long; it was time to return. Thus, the two set off immediately, heading toward the Jibei Palace.

Half an hour later, the two finally returned to the Jibei Palace. Not long after their return, they were summoned by an elder of the Jibei Palace. Standing before the elder, they could not help but feel nervous.

"Where have you been during this time?" the elder asked, looking at the two. "Why have you been gone for so long?"

Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying exchanged a glance; they knew that if they did not tell the truth, the elder would certainly not let them off easily.

Thus, they told everything that had happened, including their encounter with the Xuesha Sect in the forest and their subsequent trials.

"You did very well this time, not only obtaining these treasures but also the Dingzhu Pearl," the elder said, nodding in satisfaction. "However, you have been away from the Jibei Palace for so long, which violates the sect rules; you are well aware of this."

Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying felt a tightening in their hearts; of course, they were well aware of the Jibei Palace's sect rules, but they also believed the elder would not let them off so easily.

"However, since you have established great merit for the Jibei Palace this time, I can choose not to pursue your responsibility," the elder continued. "But you must remember: in the future, without my permission, you are not to leave the Jibei Palace without authorization."

Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying both breathed a sigh of relief; they knew this result was already quite good.

"You have gained much from this trial; next, I will arrange for someone to take you into seclusion for cultivation," the elder said, then let them leave.

After returning to their room, Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying immediately began seclusion cultivation. They knew their strength was still not powerful enough, so they had to work even harder to achieve it.

In the time that followed, Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying cultivated continuously. Their strength also kept improving.

One month later, an elder of the Jibei Palace found them again.

"How did your seclusion cultivation go this time?" the elder asked.

"Thank you for your concern, Elder. We feel our strength has improved significantly," Di Luomi said.

"That is good," the elder said, handing a box to Di Luomi. "Inside this box is an extremely precious spiritual artifact, specially prepared for you."

After Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying opened the box, they found a sword weapon that was transparent throughout. It emitted a cold aura, as if it could freeze even a person's soul.

"This is a Soul Spiritual Artifact!" Hearing Ming Ying said in surprise.

"Correct, this is an extremely precious Soul Spiritual Artifact," the elder said, nodding in satisfaction. "It can help you better cultivate soul power. During your cultivation, you must seize the opportunity well."

Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying both looked at the elder with gratitude; they knew how significant this gift was to them.

"Thank you, Elder!" the two said in unison.

"Very well, you may go down," the elder waved his hand. "Remember, strength can only be obtained through continuous effort."

After Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying left the elder's room, they could not help but feel delighted. They knew their strength had been greatly improved; what remained to be done was to cultivate continuously and become stronger.

After staying in the Jibei Palace for several more months, they left the Jibei Palace again.

This time, they prepared to go to a place called Tianfengcheng. This place was said to possess extremely abundant heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and it also housed some hidden sects. For Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying, this was an excellent opportunity.
