Chapter 127 All That Is Obtained Is What One Desires
"Haha, not bad, not bad! I didn't expect that Yue'er could break through to the initial stage of Fusion in such a short time. It's really amazing!" After Ying Yue successfully stabilized her current realm, Kuang Zheng praised her with a big smile.
Seeing this, Wu Ren, who was standing to the side, quickly chimed in, "That's right! Big Sister, you've been amazing lately, achieving three major breakthroughs in a row, raising your cultivation level by an entire major realm! You're the fastest improving of the three of us! If you continue to develop at this pace, it won't be long before the other two are left far behind!"
Although she knew perfectly well that the two people were just flattering her, Ying Yue still couldn't hide her joy.
After all, with a series of breakthroughs and achievements before them, anyone would feel excited and proud.
A slight smile appeared on her lips as she softly said, "Oh dear, it's not as exaggerated as you make it out to be! You two have already reached the Heartbeat stage, while I'm only at the Fusion stage. I'm still a whole realm away from you!"
However, there was not a trace of envy in her tone; on the contrary, it was full of uncontrollable joy and satisfaction.
This isn't modesty at all; it's practically a disguised form of self-praise!
However, she does have reason to be proud. As Wu Ren said before, since entering the Dragon's Nest, Ying Yue has indeed made breakthroughs one after another, as if she had a cheat code.
Compared to Kuang Zheng and Wu Ren, she was undoubtedly the biggest winner of this cultivation journey.
Although she is not as strong as the two right now, she firmly believes that with her talent and persistent hard work, she will one day catch up and even surpass them.
After all, her rapid improvement in strength in recent times is the most powerful proof, which is why she has the confidence to hold such a belief.
After another round of business-like compliments among the three, they finally reached a consensus—to leave this place.
With the spatial ring, they packed their things exceptionally quickly, and everything was ready in the blink of an eye.
Arriving at the entrance to the Dragon's Nest once more, Ying Yue's eyes revealed a deep longing as she gazed upon the ever-shining dragon's nest.
Although she only stayed for a little over a year, for her, this period was undoubtedly the most peaceful and beautiful time in her life so far.
Being here, there is no need to worry about ferocious beasts suddenly appearing, nor to be anxious about the scarcity of beast cores.
Falling asleep to the steady heartbeat of my loved one every day, I no longer live in constant anxiety, no longer live with the fear of not knowing what tomorrow will bring...
At Dragon's Nest, he not only obtained the alchemy furnace he had always dreamed of, but also devoted himself wholeheartedly to his beloved alchemy career.
This place is rich in rare and precious natural treasures, as well as a wide variety of high-quality animal cores that you can freely use.
Every morning, I can wake up peacefully in my lover's warm embrace, without feeling fear or anxiety, without needing to be constantly vigilant, and without having to worry or be anxious all day long.
All that surrounds you is overflowing warmth and love...
Now, all of this is about to come to an end, and the unbearable emotions surge forth from the depths of my heart like a flood bursting its banks.
Kuang Zheng keenly sensed his lover's low spirits. He held her soft little hand tightly and gently placed it to his warm lips.
He whispered in a deep, gentle voice, "My dear, after we defeat Zhu Xian, we'll settle down in this Dragon's Nest. From then on, no matter where we are, I will stay by your side, never leaving you, and protecting you forever, okay?"
Ying Yue gazed into her lover's eyes, which were filled with deep affection and determination. Her own eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded firmly, replying, "Mmm...!"
At this moment, no more words are needed; our hearts are already intertwined.
As if sensing its master's excitement and joy, the Immortal-Slaying Spear in Wu Ren's hand suddenly emitted a cheerful hum.
Feeling the joy emanating from his beloved gun, he couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Haha...it seems you can't wait to see the outside world. Don't rush, don't rush, my darling, I'll take you on a journey right away! We'll make the whole world witness your unparalleled power!!"
Seemingly understanding its master's bold words, the Immortal Slayer Spear emitted an even more joyful and stirring hum, as if praising and cheering for its master.
However, this stands in stark contrast to Noguchi Pass.
Since the team of experts at the fourth level was dispatched to search for and capture them, the whereabouts of the three humans have completely disappeared.
Faced with such a disheartening result, Zhu Xian was furious but helpless.
After all, in the vast wilderness, how easy is it to find three people who are elusive and deliberately hiding?
Although he was one of the top figures in the wilderness, and was known as having divided the core of the wilderness into three parts.
But that's just a claim!
Although the wilderness shrank after that cataclysmic disaster, it was still vast and boundless.
Because of the loss of spiritual energy, their strength is much weaker than in ancient times.
Even the top experts back then couldn't sense the every move of all the wild beasts in the entire wilderness, so it's even more impossible for them now.
Compared to those once powerful figures in the wilderness, they were pitifully weak.
They claim to control one-third of the beast's core with such strength, but even they themselves don't believe it.
Compared to the vast, boundless wilderness and its long history, they are as insignificant as dust.
The vast wilderness is simply too enormous, beyond imagination!
They claimed to have firmly occupied the core area of the wilderness, but in reality, the territory they actually controlled was only a few thousand square miles in radius.
Beyond this scope, let alone effective management, we've only ventured into it once or twice so far.
Even this was just a cursory glance, a fleeting glimpse.
It was just a glance; it didn't even qualify as an inspection.
There are too many unknown areas for them in the wilderness.
However, for thousands of years, no wild beast has ever challenged the authority of the three territories.
Through the accumulated power over thousands of years and the deliberate propaganda of generation after generation of lords, they have only verbally divided up the core of the wilderness.
In reality, the area they can effectively govern is less than one ten-thousandth of the core of the wilderness.
It is known that in ancient times, countless powerful legendary level twelve super beasts once lived here, including many legendary immortal beasts.
Even during that period, the three top experts only occupied a small part of the core of the wilderness.
Currently, the strongest among them is only at the sixth level.
With such strength, how dare they claim to be the core of the entire Wilderness divided into three?
This is truly a case of: "When the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king."
Fortunately, as the three lords, they did not lose their minds. They knew that with their meager strength, it was simply a pipe dream to try to control the entire coreless area.
Therefore, after a large-scale search operation that lasted for one year and three months, Noguchi Ridge ultimately lost all trace of the three humans.
Faced with this disheartening result, Zhu Xian ultimately maintained the necessary calm and rationality.
Therefore, he decisively lifted the previous large-scale, all-out search.
Instead, Zhu Xian dispersed a large number of well-trained Sky-Listening Beasts and Ironclad Eagles to various corners of the wilderness.
Hopefully, these two special beasts will bring him unexpected surprises...
