I can gather experience beads

"There are still a lot of secrets left."

"This is all the effect of the experience beads." Cao Rui thought to himself as he explored the remaining secrets in the jade bottle.

The cultivation has reached this level.

Every advancement in a small realm requires a huge amount of energy.

Originally, Zuo Qiu calculated that the secret in the jade bottle would be just enough to help Cao Rui advance to the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm.

However, Cao Rui possessed the experience bead, which greatly improved his utilization of the heavenly secrets.

Therefore, after the promotion, there is still a lot of Tianji left.

"After I have used up all these Heavenly Secrets and participated in the Heavenly Realm Battle Cultivation Event, it will be time to go to the Heaven Beyond Heaven to have a look."

"The world beyond the sky is the great world of the spiritual realm. Although it is dangerous, it is also filled with opportunities." Cao Rui thought to himself.

Cao Rui continued to hone his supernatural powers.

Just like that, the short thirty days passed in a flash.

On this day, when the dawn broke, Cao Rui was already standing in his yard waiting quietly.

He was wearing a suit of soft armor of the city guards, with an upright posture, handsome face, and sharp temperament, quite reminiscent of the style of an ancient monk.

Not long after, Chu Xiyue also walked quickly with light steps to the training courtyard where Cao Rui was.

She was wearing the same soft armor today, but with a light blue long skirt underneath. The hem of her skirt fluttered in the wind, making her look heroic and bright.

This time their departure point was set at the Holy Land Academy, where nine other academy disciples would go to the Heavenly Realm Battle Cultivation Event with Cao Rui.

Everyone will board the spirit ship specially provided by the Holy Land Academy to the venue of this grand event, the Netherworld.

The Netherworld Ghost Den is one of the most famous and powerful forces in the Frost Sky Territory!

Most of the cultivators within it are good at practicing dark-related magical skills, which are hard to guard against.

This grand event of heavenly realm combat cultivation is held in rotation among the major forces every once in a while.

This time it happened to be the turn of the Netherworld to host this grand event.

From the Holy Land of the North Sea to the Netherworld, if you choose to ride a spirit ship at full speed, it will take about ten days to reach your destination.

Chu Xiyue and Cao Rui sped all the way after leaving the City Guard Headquarters, and soon they successfully arrived at the magnificent Holy Land Academy.

On the wide square in front of the magnificent Holy Land Academy, a remarkable spiritual ship has been quietly moored.

This spirit ship was shining with dazzling light all over, as if it was made up of countless bright stars.

Its graceful and flowing body is like a nimble dragon, gracefully stretching between heaven and earth. In comparison, the spirit ship of the Qingqiong Realm is just like an ordinary bamboo raft.

Not far in front of the spirit ship, several academy tutors in plain robes were waiting here with solemn expressions.

Chu Xiyue and the other person fell into the arena.

One of the middle-aged monks with a thin face and a long horse face frowned slightly and was the first to break the silence and said, "Chu Xiyue, we have been waiting here for a long time!"

This person's name is Zhang Liang. He is one of the most famous high-level instructors in the Holy Land Academy and possesses a high level of cultivation in the fusion period.

He is proficient in and has mastered the powerful power of burning flame rules, and his comprehension of this power has reached the astonishing level of [Third Order Insight].

You know, in the entire Holy Land Academy, those who can cultivate the power of rules to such a high level like him are rare.

In the world of cultivation, the degree of understanding of the power of rules is usually divided into the following different realms: [Initial Glimpse], [Gross Knowledge], [Insight], [Control] and [Integration].

Generally speaking, only when a cultivator's comprehension of a certain rule power reaches the level of [Insight], can he still exert the powerful power of the rule even without the assistance of the corresponding innate spiritual treasure.

Zhang Liang was able to successfully elevate the power of the burning flame rules, which he was good at, to the [Insight] level, which was enough to prove that he was gifted and powerful. His combat power was also among the best among the many masters in the Holy Land Academy.

Chu Xiyue calmly took Cao Rui forward and said, "Can we set off now?"

Zhang Liang nodded slightly, "Go ahead, and set off immediately."

Chu Xiyue jumped onto the spirit ship, and Cao Rui followed closely behind.

Many disciples of the Holy Land Academy were standing on the deck of the spirit ship and looking at Cao Rui and Chu Xiyue curiously.

After all, in previous years, the only ones who participated in the Heavenly Realm Battle Cultivation Gathering were basically the disciples of the Holy Land Academy.

Even if they are from the city guards, they will first join the Holy Land Academy and then participate in the event as disciples of the academy.

It was rare for Cao Rui to directly participate as a city guard.

The students in the academy were all guessing about Cao Rui's identity.

"Young Master, this journey to the Netherworld will take ten days, so I will go to my room and rest first."

"Adjust your mood. You will have a better performance at the Battle Cultivation Festival in ten days."

There were many separate training rooms on the spirit ship. Chu Xiyue chose one in the middle and rushed in.

Cao Rui nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with Chu Xiyue's proposal, and then prepared to choose a training room to meditate in like her.

At this moment, a clear and familiar voice came into Cao Rui's ears.

"Cao Rui?" Hearing this voice, Cao Rui couldn't help but stand up straight and raised his head to look towards the source of the sound.

Sure enough, he saw a familiar face—Ye Li.

Before this, they had met once on the fifth floor of the Sutra Repository.

Ye Li was seen wearing the Holy Land Academy uniform today, with a graceful figure and an extraordinary temperament.

Her lively eyes were now staring at Cao Rui, with a faint smile on her lips.

Cao Rui also smiled back and said softly, "Long time no see."

Ye Li walked up to Cao Rui lightly. She knew Cao Rui's identity. He was a disciple of the same Venerable as her. She said with a little surprise: "I didn't expect to meet you here, and you also participated in this Heaven Realm Battle Cultivation Event."

Cao Rui nodded and responded, "It was arranged by the master. It's a good opportunity for me to gain some experience."

Ye Li showed a look of realization, as if he had thought of something, and invited: "According to the previous practice of our academy, all disciples who participate in the Wan Tian Realm Battle Cultivation Ceremony will form teams to go to Tianwai Tian for training."

"This way we can look after each other and improve safety when we plunder the secrets of the Heavenly World. Cao Rui, if you are also going to the Heavenly World, why don't you join our team!"

You know, for many academy disciples, forming a team to go to Tianwai Tian for training is indeed a wise move.

After all, the environment outside the sky is complex, changeable and full of dangers. If you act alone, it is easy to encounter accidents.

Teamwork can greatly reduce risks while allowing everyone to better play to their strengths.

This traditional arrangement has been around in the Holy Land Academy for a long time and has become the default behavior for disciples during every grand event.

Cao Rui naturally knew this truth, so when Ye Li made the invitation, Cao Rui's heart couldn't help but be moved.
