Lying in bed, recalling the experience after the teleportation array had been activated, Lu Ye’s face turned pale green.
He had actually gone through teleportation many times before, each time entering or returning to the sect headquarters with the help of the Heaven’s Augury Pillar.
That kind of teleportation was extremely peaceful and fast; after a brief change in vision, the teleportation was already complete.
Therefore, Lu Ye had never thought that teleportation could be such a horrible experience.
After he activated that child array, he immediately felt like he had stepped into an abyss with no bottom, and the process was lengthy. During it, it seemed like a force was twisting him into a long strip, then flattening him repeatedly...
He was quite experienced, having fought forty-three consecutive battles at Golden Light Peak with his Level 5 realm cultivation, fearless even when completely exhausted.
But just thinking about the terrible sensation of the previous teleportation made his heart palpitate. Throughout the whole process, he felt like a leaf adrift on the waves, unable to muster any spirit force, which left him feeling very insecure.
What was even more frustrating was that he got injured!
During the teleportation, it seemed as if sharp weapons were slicing through his body, cutting him all over and shredding his clothes, but fortunately, his physical body was strong. The injuries were only superficial, and with some treatment from Hua Ci, he recovered quickly.
However, the psychological shadow was somewhat difficult to erase.
A day later, wearing a clean set of clothes and looking spirited, Lu Ye returned to the small courtyard.
Yiyi and Hua Ci watched him anxiously from the side.
"Still going?"
"There was a slight issue before that needs adjustment, but this time it’ll definitely be fine," Lu Ye promised confidently, patting his cheeks and silently cheering himself on. As long as the formation I set up is positioned accurately enough and operates stably, such incidents won’t happen again!
Under the worried gazes of Yiyi and Hua Ci, he rearranged the damaged teleportation array in the courtyard and then quickly headed to a location twenty miles away.
He was relieved to find the array banner he had left there yesterday still intact.
This place was deep within the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, where cultivators from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge would not venture, and the numerous venomous creatures in the forest had no interest in an array banner, so naturally, it wasn’t lost.
Two hours later, in the small courtyard, Yiyi and Hua Ci suddenly heard some noises. The two exchanged glances and ran towards the source of the sounds, in perfect sync.
Shortly thereafter, they saw Lu Ye, tattered and bloodied...
"Help... me!" Lu Ye, with a face as pale as paper, lay on the ground, stubbornly lifting his head and reaching out a hand to the two women. His vision swirled, making it impossible for him to stand.
Another day later, inside the small courtyard, Yiyi and Hua Ci looked at Lu Ye expressionlessly.
"This time it definitely won’t be an issue. I’ve identified the problem, just a slight adjustment needed!" Lu Ye said sternly.
More than two hours later, Hua Ci carried the blood-covered Lu Ye back to the wooden hut...
On the fourth day, the same place, the same trio.
"Anyway, whatever I say, you won’t believe me. You’ll see it for yourselves," he said.
Amber curled up on the windowsill of the third floor, casting a pitying glance at Lu Ye before retreating back, her claws dexterously pulling out a Spirit Stone from the storage sack around her neck and crunching it noisily between her teeth.
On the fifth day, facing the inquiring looks of Yiyi and Hua Ci, Lu Ye’s lips moved slightly but he said nothing, turning away instead.
After he left, Hua Ci asked Yiyi teasingly, "Guess from which direction he’ll come this time?"
Yiyi paused thoughtfully, touching her red lips, then pointed in a certain direction, "From over there!"
Hua Ci smirked slightly, "Then I bet he’ll be over there."
They waited quietly, listening intently.
Soon, unusual noises came from not too far away.
Hua Ci smiled, "You won!"
The noises were coming from the direction Yiyi had pointed to.
"Time to save someone." Hua Ci said this and started walking towards that direction.
Over the past few days, both women had gotten used to it: every time Lu Ye would get himself into a terrible state, then they would carry him back to the wooden hut for treatment and recuperation, and the next day he would go out again to continue his experiments...
But before they had gone far, they saw Lu Ye staggering towards them as if he were drunk, a departure from the previous times.

This time, although still pale, there were thankfully no signs of injury, and even his clothes were intact.
Yiyi quickly went up to support him, and Lu Ye grinned at her: "It worked!"
Although the effect was slightly different from what he had anticipated, the adjustment of the teleportation array was finally complete.
However, the teleportation array at present couldn’t accurately locate the teleport, because logically, Lu Ye should have appeared directly on the teleportation array in the small courtyard, yet in reality, he materialized more than ten yards off target.
It wasn’t that there was a problem with the array he had set up, but rather that the array wasn’t stable enough. Thus, during the process of teleporting, there were some minor deviations. The extent of these deviations would increase with the distance of teleportation.
Solving this issue was quite simple—either enhance his cultivation or increase the stability of the array. Currently, Lu Ye was unable to resolve this.
Moreover, Lu Ye vaguely sensed that the best span between the child array and the parent array that he currently laid out should not exceed about 30 miles; beyond this distance, it might cease to function.
After all, his power was still too low. In the future, as his power increased, the teleportation arrays he laid out would be more stable and capable of spanning greater distances.
After tuning the teleportation array, Lu Ye took a day to meditate and restore himself to his peak condition, then shared his plans with Yiyi and Hua Ci.
Without surprise, both women wanted to accompany Lu Ye. Hua Ci, now a 7th Heaven cultivator, had unpredictable offensive methods, fully capable of venturing alone into the Core Circle.
Yiyi and Amber’s strength had also advanced rapidly during this period. Although it was hard to determine their exact level of cultivation, they definitely wouldn’t hold Lu Ye back in terms of power.
"I’m going alone this time; it’s easier for me to act. Also, believe me, you wouldn’t want to experience that kind of teleportation... Besides, the carrying capacity of the teleportation array I’ve set up is limited. Teleporting just myself isn’t too problematic, but I can’t guarantee it’ll work with even one more person."
Upon hearing Lu Ye talk about the teleportation array and recalling his experiences over the past few days, the two women couldn’t help but feel alarmed.
Coming out covered in blood and in tattered clothes, the scene was indeed not very pleasant to the eye.
"Then you must be extremely careful," Hua Ci instructed.
"I know, just wait for me here," he responded.
With nothing left to prepare, Lu Ye immediately set off on his journey.
First, he went to recover the array banners he had left twenty miles away, and then he directly summoned his spirit ark and soared into the sky.
It had been a full two months since Lu Yiye had been trapped in the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest!
Initially, when Lu Ye was trapped in the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators thought his end was near, but to this day, he was still alive and well. They were certain that Lu Yiye must have found a safe place within the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, otherwise, he couldn’t have stayed hidden for so long and survived.
The Ten Thousand Demons Ridge side had long lost their patience, yet they were unwilling to just leave. Around the entirety of the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, a large number of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators were stationed, and even the airspace was constantly monitored to prevent Lu Ye from escaping using weapon control.

Within the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, Lu Ye soared dozens of yards into the sky before he escaped the dense poisonous fog.
As the azure sky and bright sunlight entered his field of vision, Lu Ye felt a sense of seeing the sun after a long time!
He took a deep breath, feeling completely relaxed.
Slowly turning around, within his field of view, about several dozen yards away, a man was staring at him in shock and confusion.
This person was clearly one of the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators responsible for patrolling the air in search of Lu Ye. After two months of fruitless searching, the sudden appearance of Lu Ye left him unable to react immediately.
Not until he met Lu Ye’s gaze did the man shout in surprise and joy, "Lu Yiye!"
As the words left his mouth, Lu Ye had already charged toward him.
The man’s face instantly turned pale; he was well aware of Lu Ye’s martial prowess and achievements. In his excitement, he had forgotten this. Although he possessed a cultivation of 8th Heaven, he knew he was no match for Lu Ye, the Sect Destroyer.
Realizing the danger, he immediately waved his hand, sending a weapon control flare towards Lu Ye, and simultaneously retrieved a Spirit Talisman from his storage sack, slapping it onto his body. In an instant, bright golden light enveloped him.
Spirit Talismans, these things, are used more by low-level cultivators, because low-level cultivators have very limited means of combat, and Spirit Talismans can often play a significant role.
From when Lu Ye set out from Qingyun Mountain towards the Righteous Blood Sect’s base, along his journey, many cultivators he encountered would use Spirit Talismans against their enemies.
But that does not mean high-level cultivators do not use Spirit Talismans.
Once cultivators reach the Level 7 realm, they seldom use offensive Spirit Talismans.
That is because, having reached the Level 7 realm and possessing weapon control abilities, compared to one-time-use Spirit Talismans, using weapons is naturally more cost-effective during combat.
Beyond the Level 7 realm, the talismans used by cultivators are mostly for protection or assistance, and they are also of higher quality than those used by low-level cultivators.
For example, the 8th Heaven cultivator right now is using a mid-grade Golden Body Talisman.
With this talisman to protect him, even a 9th Heaven cultivator would struggle to break through the golden light’s protection in a short time.
Of course, there are no absolutes. Core Circle cultivators may also use offensive talismans, and if that is the case, one must be extremely careful, for those talismans are all incredibly powerful, often the prized assets of their owners.
This 8th Heaven cultivator launched his weapon control attack at Lu Ye and protected himself with the Golden Body, acting in one smooth motion. Although his initial reaction was slightly delayed, his extensive experience in combat taught him how to best protect his life when facing a stronger opponent.
Then he saw a flash of blade light sweep past his eyes, and in an instant, his vision was filled with dense, fiery red.
His mind was instantly engulfed by boundless fear. The mid-grade Golden Body Talisman that he had depended on shattered under this single slash, and the sharp long blade cut through his neck as if slicing through tofu, severing it effortlessly!
