Chapter 48

In the vast expanse of the sky, Lu Shaoyou transformed into a divine rainbow, streaking across the heavens.

"I didn't expect the Purple Mansion Cloud Lotus to not be in Ying Feiyang's possession," a hint of confusion flickered across Lu Shaoyou's brow. After his enlightenment, Ying Feiyang had directly revealed all the information about the Purple Mansion Cloud Lotus. "I didn't expect there to be an old ancestor behind him, who is even Ying Wen's master, with a cultivation level of a half-step Transcendent."

The divine pig, inside Lu Shaoyou's sea of consciousness, comically shook its pig head and said, "If you think about it carefully, what is the Purple Mansion Cloud Lotus? It's a spiritual medicine that can directly allow a Foundation Establishment cultivator to achieve the Transcendent realm. How could such a precious plant be entrusted to a mere Foundation Establishment Second Stage trash to guard?"

"Perhaps this old man wants to achieve the Transcendent realm himself, so he wants to obtain it. However, the Yanwu Clan has a rule that enforcers cannot leave, so he sent Ying Feiyang to protect it," the divine pig said.

"From Ying Feiyang's words, it seems this old man instructed Ying Feiyang to guard the entrance to the place, not allowing anyone to enter. On the day it matures, he will send a jade token to notify him, and he will come out to pick it," Lu Shaoyou slowly said, "Fortunately, we have at least a clue. The Transverse Mountain Range, it seems we need to hurry." As he spoke, his body accelerated again, transforming into a streak of rainbow light that shot through the air.

The Transverse Mountain Range is vast, stretching for thousands of miles. From the sky, it resembles an ancient celestial dragon coiled on the earth. As soon as Lu Shaoyou stepped into the Transverse Mountain Range, he felt a dense aura of the primordial era rushing towards him, a heavy and ancient sensation slowly spreading from the land. The divine pig, who had been snoring loudly in Lu Shaoyou's sea of consciousness, suddenly stood up and roared at Lu Shaoyou, "Ancient Wasteland Forbidden Zone! This is the Ancient Wasteland Forbidden Zone! How is this possible! How can this be!"

Lu Shaoyou's brows furrowed, and he asked the divine pig, "Ancient Wasteland Forbidden Zone? What is this place?"

The divine pig roared, "I never thought it! The Transverse Mountain Range is actually the Ancient Wasteland Forbidden Zone! Kid! We hit the jackpot! We hit the jackpot! In the ancient era, this place was known as a treasure land! Of course, it's also very dangerous. Many great figures perished here in the past, and even powerful beings could fall here."

Lu Shaoyou's sword-like brows arched, and a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, "That's great. Such a dangerous place will be both a life-and-death trial and a battlefield for me. My cultivation will surely improve here!"

"Right, cultivating and seeking the Dao is defying the heavens. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Only by constantly striving can you step onto the path of eternal life and achieve immortality! If you are timid, how can you compete with other geniuses for destiny! Not to mention challenging the heavens and seizing your own fate!" the divine pig lectured Lu Shaoyou with an air of authority.

After entering the mountains, the view was a vast expanse of green. The mountains were lush with vegetation, and the sky was like a blue crystal inlaid with white clouds, a perfect blue without a single flaw. Soft and bright sunlight gently fell, making the place look like a fairyland. Occasionally, some young ferocious beasts would peek out from the dense foliage to forage for food, their round heads and large, round eyes, and small paws scratching, making them quite adorable.

"We should be close! That's what Ying Feiyang said, it should be correct!" Lu Shaoyou flew over the Transverse Mountain Range, admiring the scenery around him while muttering to himself.

Suddenly, a chaotic sound of fighting came from a distance. Although it was faint, it was still quite far away. Lu Shaoyou, who could not claim to see the world or hear for a thousand miles, could still hear it from a distance of four or five hundred miles. After some thought, he flew several dozen miles in the direction of the fighting. Soon, the sounds grew louder and more chaotic, indicating a fierce battle.

Lu Shaoyou approached cautiously, peeking over. He saw a group of demon cultivators in moon-white robes surrounding a group of people. Looking closely, the surrounded group was from the Yanwu Clan, and the demon cultivator in the center was the icy and warlike woman—Li Yuchen! At this moment, she had no trace of her divine woman image, drenched in sweat, with her robe torn, exposing large areas of her snow-white skin.

Beside her were a few other demon cultivators, mostly women, likely from the Vermilion Bird Academy. The remaining male cultivators were probably the legendary protectors. They were in a chaotic and exhausted state, barely fending off the attacks. Li Yuchen was the best among them, with the highest cultivation and a Dao artifact, but Lu Shaoyou noticed she hadn't used her Dao artifact, which puzzled him.

"What's so strange about that?" the divine pig snorted, arching its pig eyes, "Have you ever thought about it? Dao artifacts aren't that easy to activate! What are Dao artifacts? They are the tools of enlightenment! To activate them, you need to expend a tremendous amount of essence, how can you just activate them at will! Do you think Dao artifacts are cabbages!"

Lu Shaoyou's eyes fixed on Li Yuchen, a greedy look in his eyes. The divine pig, seeing this, immediately cried out, "Lu kid! Are you planning to take advantage of her! That's too evil! How can you do this! At least take me along! You're too unscrupulous!"

Lu Shaoyou's veins bulged on his forehead, wishing he could immediately give the pig a couple of knocks. He whispered to the divine pig, "I want that Dao artifact! Think about it, I'm currently penniless! I don't even have one! Not to mention a Dao artifact! Not even a spirit artifact, a treasure artifact, or even the lowest-grade magical artifact!"

The divine pig, seeing Lu Shaoyou's helpless expression, rolled its eyes and said, "I advise you to capture that woman first! She will be of great benefit to you!"

As it spoke, the divine pig's expression turned from lecherous to serious. Seeing the divine pig's serious expression, Lu Shaoyou couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure?"

The divine pig nodded its large pig head and said to Lu Shaoyou, "Kid, first, I need to warn you. This world is formed by the union of yin and yang! As the saying goes, 'yin alone cannot last, so yang must decline.' To reach a higher realm, one must go through this process. Otherwise, your life will be incomplete, with flaws. This is the same as the monks' theory that 'if you don't leave the world, how can you enter it.' Not to mention you, even the ancient Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors had many wives and concubines! How stupid! You won't be like the Supreme Being who forgets emotions! You're a piece of rotten wood! A piece of rotten wood!" The divine pig kept pounding its chest, seemingly very distressed, with a very comical expression. "Also, I need to tell you, this woman is likely the reincarnation of the ancient Ice Immortal's primordial spirit! I can sense an extremely powerful ice aura from her, very similar to the Ice Old Lady's aura. Moreover, the如意Snow Lotus is one of the Ice Old Lady's many Dao artifacts. Let me think, yes, it should be correct. If you merge with the reincarnation of the Ice Old Lady, it will definitely help you understand the true essence of ancient ice! So you must take her!"

Lu Shaoyou's eyes glowed with green light as the divine pig spoke. He said to the divine pig, "There are so many benefits! Good! She's not bad, so I'll designate her as one of my concubines!"
