Chaos Dao Sheng Jue

Lu Chen excitedly followed the team of casual cultivators in flying on his sword, flying towards the depths of the endless forest. As time passed, everyone could no longer see the Zhongba City behind them.

Then the continental plates gradually moved away from people's sight until they disappeared.

Under my feet, what came into view was an endless forest. Without any reference points to determine the direction, a formation of 500,000 Foundation Establishment cultivators began to spread out in all directions.

At first, Lu Chen even thought that more than two million cultivators might be too many, which might lead to a scramble for resources.

However, when they actually entered the endless forest, they realized that they were wrong.

Take the 500,000 Foundation Establishment cultivators as an example. At the beginning, they seemed like a huge crowd, but as they flew, everyone began to disperse. Some chose to work alone, and some chose to form teams.

In the end, there was no cultivator left in Lu Chen's sight.

Three hours later, Lu Chen was flying alone on his sword above the endless forest, his brows slightly furrowed, because he was also confused. He had a sense of direction before, but now it made no difference where he looked.

Looking around, there was nothing but sky and forest all around, so Lu Chen plunged into the endless forest and appeared in the golden bead world the next second.

In order to better deal with what happens next, Lu Chen plans to break through to the late stage of foundation building first.

Previously in Shun'an City, because of the bitter bamboo incident, Lu Chen's state of mind had been greatly improved, and his cultivation had shown signs of a breakthrough.

It's just that at that time, I spent all the 500,000 medium-grade spirit stones to redeem Zi Xuan, and I also had to prepare for the Endless Forest Trial, so I was delayed.

In the Golden Bead World, Lu Chen sat cross-legged in front of a small hill of mid-grade spirit stones, practicing the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue and beginning to impact the late stage of foundation building.

After practicing the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue for a period of time, Lu Chen felt more and more the power of the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue.

Not only can it automatically derive subsequent exercises, but there are almost no bottlenecks or obstacles in breaking through. The only drawback is that it consumes too many spirit stones.

For example, an ordinary cultivator needs to absorb about 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones to break through from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building, while Lu Chen needs to absorb 300,000 medium-grade spirit stones to practice the Chaos Dao Sheng Jue. He is a real spirit stone tiger.

While Lu Chen was hiding in the golden bead world to break through, other cultivators in the endless forest had their own experiences.

"Gu Feng, be careful! Look at my ice talisman!" Zhong Tao shouted, threw out a second-level low-grade spiritual talisman, and quickly formed seals with both hands.

The talisman flashed white light and instantly froze a giant ant that was rushing towards Gu Feng. It was very mysterious.

"The first-level monster Iron-winged Golden Ant! Fatty Zhong, it seems your talisman skills have improved a lot!" Gu Feng praised in surprise.

Only then could I see clearly that it was a giant golden ant almost two meters long, with a pair of black wings on its back, two long fangs exposed at the corners of its mouth, and a cannibalistic look in its eyes. It looked quite intimidating.

"Haha... this thing was trying to sneak attack you just now, but I easily dealt with it with the Ice Talisman. Now I'm one point ahead." Zhong Tao smiled proudly.

After entering the Endless Forest, the two naturally formed a team. Zhong Tao suggested that they compete to see who can kill more monsters. Each monster killed will be scored one point. After returning to the sect, the loser will wash the socks for the winner for a month.

"Just a small shrimp. You are temporarily ahead." Gu Feng said disdainfully.

"What do you mean I'm ahead? I've been ahead in the first place, okay?" Zhong Tao argued unconvinced. When he was about to put the iron-winged golden ant into the storage bag, something strange happened.

"Crack...crack..." The ice gradually cracked.

The Iron-winged Golden Ant, which was originally frozen in ice, suddenly broke free from the ice and let out an unpleasant roar.

In a flash, Gu Feng took out his magic sword and a flash of sword light passed by.

The Iron-Winged Golden Ant was easily killed by Gu Feng before it could launch another attack.

"Haha... your ice talisman doesn't seem to work. I'm so sorry. I'm one point ahead." Gu Feng put the body of the Iron-Winged Golden Ant into the storage bag and smiled proudly.

"You... humph... are just a small demon beast comparable to the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage." Zhong Tao said unconvincedly when he saw the cooked duck flew away.

"Haha...that's better than not opening yet!" Gu Feng retorted without showing any weakness.

"Hmph... let's wait and see. I will make you wash my socks for a month." After saying that, Zhong Tao dodged and continued to look for prey.

Gu Feng shook his head and smiled, his body turned into a shadow and chased after him.

In the golden bead world, Lu Chen exhaled a breath of turbid air, opened his eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He successfully broke through to the late stage of foundation building.

With a thought, he appeared in the endless forest and began to look around.

There were big trees all around, each of which was more than thirty stories high. Seeing this, Lu Chen smiled.

It seems that the species in the world of cultivation grow many times taller than on Earth due to the influence of spiritual energy, and people standing under the big trees appear particularly small.

All kinds of plants grow under the big tree, and each plant is larger in size as if it had been injected with hormones.

For example, common rattan can be seen everywhere here, but the smallest rattan is as thick as a thigh, and the larger ones probably require two or three people holding hands to hold them.

Lu Chen took out the information jade token and injected his spiritual consciousness into it. There were two red dots, one big and one small, in it. The big red dot represented the location of the formation signal tower.

The small red dot represents your location, somewhat similar to a modern portable radar.

Combining the coverage of telephone signals on Earth, Lu Chen estimated that the area covered by the formation signal tower should be fan-shaped and spread out towards the endless forest.

The cultivators of each realm explore in a fixed area. If they continue to go deeper, the information jade token will lose its function of receiving signals. This information has been specifically informed by someone before they come.

This is also the cleverness of the seven major sects. They control the areas that cultivators can reach through information jade plates, and the formation signal tower should also have corresponding data displays.

Lu Chen even guessed that the information jade tablets of the children of aristocratic families and independent cultivators could receive signals in a wider range than those of the seven major sects.

In this way, the children of aristocratic families and independent cultivators are equivalent to cannon fodder, and the seven major sects can always analyze the background data to find out which place has more fallen cultivators and which place has richer resources, thereby reducing the death rate of the cultivators in the seven sects.

Lu Chen's biggest purpose of entering the Endless Forest this time was to find bitter bamboo, and he had already memorized the relevant map.

According to Lu Chen's speculation, based on the time when Zi Xuan's ancestor entered the Endless Forest and the fact that the formation signal tower is updated every ten years, the approximate coverage range of the formation signal tower several hundred years ago can be deduced.

Lu Chen estimated that the location of Kuzhu should be within the range where the current fusion-stage cultivators were located. Although he knew it was dangerous, Lu Chen still decided to give it a try.

The only thing that needs to be solved now is how to upgrade the signal receiving range of the information jade token in my hand. Otherwise, if I run out of the signal range of the Foundation Establishment cultivator, wouldn’t I be like a headless fly without the signal?

Lu Chen took out the flying boat and embedded a mid-grade spirit stone into it. While controlling the flying boat with his spiritual sense, he observed the small red dot in the jade token and its relationship with the formation signal tower to ensure that he was flying towards the depths of the endless forest.
