Chapter 390: Breaking Seclusion

Dao of the Fearless…

The Vermilion Bird wasn’t giving up. She wanted Yue Hongling to accompany Lu Ye in the future, but if her realm didn’t improve, there wouldn’t be any talk of companionship.

“I remember in my last life, after your Dao of the Fearless went through the Dark Turmoil, you also wanted to collapse. Back then, your husband helped you reshape it, right?”

The Dark Turmoil was absolutely terrifying. It was a calamity for all living beings, shrouding everyone in immense horror and despair.

Yue Hongling started to recall.

“He told me to break through the Dark Forest.”

“Start from the outskirts!”

“Got it! I’ll start from the outskirts, bit by bit, to build my confidence and gradually hone it, so I can reshape the Dao of the Fearless!”

“I just need to find a dangerous place to conquer it bit by bit…”

“Defeating fear through one victory after another…”

Yue Hongling seemed to have an epiphany and started muttering to herself.

Where was suitable for her to go?

That place suited her?

**Fourth Heaven**…

“Let’s first check out the **Void of Ten Thousand Beasts**, then head to Demon Mountain. I want to reclaim my fearless heart!”

“This time, it has to work!”

“Can I go with you?” the Vermilion Bird asked eagerly.

Yue Hongling paused, looking at the Vermilion Bird, sensing something was off.

“Why… are you being so nice to me?”

This was different from usual.

The Vermilion Bird let out a soft sigh. “Consider it compensation. After all, I was the one who told you about the poisoning. If I hadn’t, you might have dodged it.”

“But even if you didn’t tell me, An Li and that crazy Yin would have told me anyway!”

“In the end, it was still me who told you!”

Yue Hongling…

“Okay, then let’s go together. This time, we have to do our best to get our Senior Brother’s forgiveness for our happiness!”

Yue Hongling clenched her fists!

The Vermilion Bird smiled.

“Yes, for our happiness!”

…

Time flew by quickly.

Lu Ye had been in seclusion, breaking through from the **Carefree Realm** to the **Cosmic Realm** in one go.

His True Essence increased by dozens, even up to eighty times, and it became more terrifying day by day.

In the **Cosmic Realm**, the cultivators were like the vast cosmos—boundless, inexhaustible, and never fading.

Lu Ye opened his eyes.

The void before him was already blurred.

Almost there!

Lu Ye didn’t plan to break straight through to the **Imperishable Realm** because he had some matters to deal with first; a sword that isn’t sharpened will surely rust!

His seclusion this time lasted a full eighty years.

Yes, eighty years!

While eighty years might mean little to most cultivators, for Lu Ye, it was the longest period of seclusion since his rebirth.

Future seclusion periods wouldn’t shorten; they would only lengthen.

And that’s considering he had the **Endless Secret Vault** at his disposal.

An all-out fast-paced cultivation was how he reached the fifth level of the **Cosmic Realm**.

Fast enough!

He stood up, his tall figure wrapped in a black robe, exuding a terrifying sense of oppression.

The **Transmitting Stone** had left many messages. Lu Ye briefly listened; some were concerned about his situation, while others were inquiring how he planned to deal with the **Buddha Sect**.

Lu Ye didn’t respond for now.

How to deal with the Buddha Sect?

Once the Buddha Sect killed the surrendered **Guan Zhi Daoist**, there was no turning back.

Before the killing, they could compensate and admit their mistakes.

In fact, these people still hadn’t realized that after making a mistake, as long as it wasn’t particularly serious and they sincerely repented, offering enough compensation, Lu Ye wouldn’t mind giving them a break.

Lu Ye wasn’t a bloodthirsty person; did this kind of thing really need to be spelled out?

Oh well, someone would understand eventually!

Lu Ye’s figure vanished as he raced towards **Ming Fo Temple**, a massive rumble echoing across the entire planet. He reappeared in the boundless starry sky.

Eighty years had passed at **Ming Fo Temple**.

Some had boldly attempted **Crossing Tribulation**, but the results were pitiful.

The targeting by the Heavenly Dao hadn’t faded.

What could they do?

They could only urge the higher realms, but the higher realms were already ignoring them since the **Buddha Sect** of the **Sixth Heaven** had been severely beaten by the **Heavenly Gate**.

They could only admit their mistakes!

Nothing else could be done!

Whether dispersing the disciples of the Buddha Sect or enhancing formations, it wouldn’t work!

Because whether it was finding people or breaking formations, Lu Ye was simply unbeatable.

**Ming Fo Temple** was utterly hopeless, struggling to come up with a solution.

Finally, they pondered and discussed repeatedly.

They made a decision.

That was to compensate, to do their utmost to compensate!

However, this compensation couldn’t just come from **Ming Fo Temple**; they also needed contributions from the **Buddha Sect** of the **Sixth Heaven**.

After all, it was the message from above that urged them to capture Lu Ye…

Fine, they certainly had a responsibility, but Lu Ye had the **Endless Secret Vault**, and the treasures inside were so numerous that ordinary compensation wouldn’t draw his interest.

They had to bleed profusely.

They suffer losses, and the upper realms had to chip in too.

The higher realms had been beaten up badly by the **Heavenly Gate**, but they hadn’t completely abandoned **Ming Fo Temple**, thus sending down some treasures.

The people at **Ming Fo Temple** were always on edge, terrified that Lu Ye would show up without waiting for compensation and start a massacre.

Eighty years had passed.

The Senior Brother at **Ming Fo Temple** was enveloped in a desperate atmosphere; some monks even went mad while cultivating due to overwhelming pressure and fear!

Six disciples of the Buddha Sect were on duty not far from **Ming Fo Temple**.

However, at that moment, an enormous sense of oppression came from the distant void, escalating rapidly.

“Who!”

“How dare you release your aura so recklessly near **Ming Fo Temple**! Do you really think we are a soft persimmon? If provoked, I’ll storm your sect, it’s all the same death anyway—might as well drag a sect down with me; let’s see if you dare to act so brazenly!”

“Could it be…?”

A gigantic figure suddenly appeared in the void.

This figure was larger than the stars.

Only in the void now, otherwise, such a figure would definitely reach the sky.

Having reached the **Cosmic Realm**, under the soaring True Essence total and unlocking certain divine abilities,

There were some divine abilities that Lu Ye couldn’t use, not because he didn’t know them, but because his strength was too low; using them wouldn’t make a difference, so it was better not to.

Like now, the top-tier divine ability—**Heavenly Laws Manifesting Earthly Forms**!

It wasn’t the first time Lu Ye used **Heavenly Laws Manifesting Earthly Forms** since his rebirth; he had used it when swallowing the **Giant Spirit Pill** in the **First Heaven**, too.

Of course, the **Heavenly Laws Manifesting Earthly Forms** from back then and now were absolutely incomparable.

Last time, it was just a pill!

This time, it was genuinely about to wreak havoc!

The gigantic Lu Ye flew towards **Ming Fo Temple**.

Immediately, **Ming Fo Temple** received the news, going into lockdown, while rapidly transmitting information to Lu Ye!
