Chapter 622

Each cultivation made him feel his strength constantly increasing.

In the forest valley, moonlight filtered through the treetops and fell; Lu Yuan sat quietly on a smooth boulder, eyes closed, focusing his mind.

His breathing gradually became steady, as if merging with this tranquil natural environment.

Suddenly, he sensed a subtle fluctuation.

He slightly opened his eyes and looked toward the distance not far away.

Under the moonlight, Su Liyan's white clothes were like snow, and she walked lightly through the night.

"Brother Yuan, are you cultivating here?"

Su Liyan asked softly.

Lu Yuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I feel cultivating in such a tranquil environment yields greater gains."

A hint of admiration flashed in Su Liyan's eyes, "You are truly a diligent and hardworking person."

She handed Lu Yuan a paper packet, "I brought some snacks for you to try."

Lu Yuan took the packet, opened it, and saw it contained homemade immortal spirit fruit.

He smiled and thanked, "Thank you, Xiao Li."

The two tacitly found a cool and secluded spot in the forest valley and sat down.

In the night breeze, they exchanged their cultivation insights and experiences.

"Xiao Li, can you tell me some secrets about the ice-element immortal arts?"

Lu Yuan asked curiously.

Su Liyan smiled slightly, drew her Ice Crystal Long Whip, and traced a beautiful arc in the air.

She took a deep breath and began a detailed explanation: "Ice-element immortal arts mainly focus on controlling and utilizing the cold element, by condensing water vapor in the air to produce ice mist or using jade ice shards to enhance power."

Lu Yuan listened attentively and occasionally posed questions.

He and Su Liyan exchanged insights and techniques on immortal arts cultivation, benefiting greatly.

Just as the two were enthusiastically exchanging, suddenly Su Liyan's expression changed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuan immediately sensed the tension emanating from Su Liyan.

Su Liyan said solemnly, "The sect has noticed your recent surge in power and remains vigilant about it."

"We must act cautiously."

Lu Yuan furrowed his brows, "Does the sect have any concerns?"

Su Liyan nodded, "Yes."

"They believe such a strength increase may harbor some hidden danger, so it must be monitored."

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, then changed the subject, "Why don't we join forces, grow together, and face challenges?"

Su Liyan smiled and nodded, "Of course, I am willing to walk forward with you."

After Lu Yuan and Su Liyan exchanged cultivation insights, they gradually felt their mutual understanding deepening.

As time passed, their level of mutual understanding in facing challenges together grew higher.

One day, after finally finishing their practice, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan returned together to Lei Huo Dan Ge.

On the way back to Lei Huo Dan Ge, they suddenly noticed a stranger standing nearby.

"Isn't that Mo Di?" Su Liyan exclaimed in surprise.

Yes, it was indeed Mo Di.

He is the Dragon Clan's crown prince, and in the course of acting together with Lu Yuan, he gradually became close with them.

Mo Di walked over, smiling at them.

"Lu Yuan, Su Liyan, what a coincidence."

"I have been looking for you."

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan looked at each other.

Why would Mo Di suddenly come looking for them?

"What do you need?" Lu Yuan asked, somewhat curious.

Mo Di said mysteriously in a low voice, "There has been an anomaly at the Tian Ting border; I need to rely on your superb Detection Technique for reconnaissance."

Upon hearing this news, Lu Yuan furrowed his brows, seeming to express concern about the Tian Ting anomaly.

Su Liyan looked at Mo Di: "Why are you looking for us?"

Mo Di gave a wry smile: "Because Lu Yuan's reconnaissance ability is required for this mission."

"I came here personally to find you in hopes of cooperating with you."

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan looked at each other, believing Mo Di would not seek their cooperation without reason.

Soon after, the three of them arrived at a quiet little house and began discussing cooperation.

"Now please tell us more about the situation at the Tian Ting border," Lu Yuan asked solemnly.

Mo Di said solemnly, "Over the past few months, several mysterious incidents have occurred at the Tian Ting border."

"Currently we have not yet clearly grasped the specific details, but our Dragon Clan pays close attention to this."

Su Liyan said softly, "If so, let's go together to investigate the Tian Ting border."

Lu Yuan nodded, "Alright, I also want to see for myself what exactly happened."

After the three agreed on the plan of action, they immediately set out for the Tian Ting border.

On the way, Lu Yuan pondered the current situation. What does the anomaly at the Tian Ting border signify?

For them, this is a great challenge and also an opportunity for tempering.

Finally, they arrived at the Tian Ting border and found the place in utter chaos.

Lightning, flames, and storms intertwined, forming a terrifying scene.

Originally a place of pleasant weather, it is now shrouded in a thin mist, with an eerie aura.

Mo Di pointed ahead and said, "This is the border of Tian Ting; I've heard that many mysterious events have occurred recently."

Lu Yuan looked around; he could feel a strong dark aura permeating the air.

He rubbed his brow, his expression solemn.

Su Liyan tightly gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip in her hand, sensing the evil power latent in the surroundings.

She looked at Lu Yuan and said, "Lu Yuan, we need to be careful; something's not right here."

"Hmm."

Lu Yuan nodded, "I can sense an evil power hidden in the mist."

Mo Di looked seriously at the two of them, "Xueying has been unusually active lately; I suspect these mysterious events are related to him."

"Xueying!" The name made Lu Yuan and Su Liyan's hearts tighten involuntarily.

Xueying is the leader of an evil force, possessing great power, and has been plotting to conquer Tian Ting.

Lu Yuan decided to use his Detection Technique to uncover Xueying's plot.

He closed his eyes, and multicolored light flashed around his body, revealing profound immortal-law runes.

"Five Elements Escape Technique!" Lu Yuan murmured softly.

With Lu Yuan's chant, the five elements around him surged, forming a complex and precise Detection Technique network.

Su Liyan quietly observed Lu Yuan's actions, knowing he was using his top-tier Detection Technique.

Time passed second by second; suddenly, fragments of information transmitted in Lu Yuan's mind.

His brow furrowed slightly as he gradually sensed Xueying's ambush plot hidden in the mist.

"It is not that many mysterious events have occurred at the border of Tian Ting."

Lu Yuan explained, "Actually, Xueying concealed himself using the fires of war between the Monster Clan and the Ghost Clan."

Everyone looked at each other, their hearts filled with surprise and vigilance.

Lu Yuan continued, "Xueying plans to take advantage of the chaos between the Monster Clan and the Ghost Clan, gathering strength to attack Tian Ting. We must stop him!"

Su Liyan gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly, her eyes flashing with determined light, "We have no time to waste; even if it's just the three of us, we must strive to defend Tian Ting." (End of chapter)
