You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 417 - 28, Emperor Yu Token

As the dense white fog around the platform churned violently, the deafening roars of beasts erupted.

Enormous Beast Kings emerged from the fog, leading an astonishing number of exotic beasts, charging madly from all directions.

Ten spirits of the Grotto Heaven remained solemn, ready to terminate the trial.

Now, each wave consisted of the eight most powerful Beast Kings appearing from eight directions, leading a large number of slightly weaker Beast Kings, and even more lesser Beast Kings, along with tens of thousands of Four Symbols level exotic beasts.

It was truly a tide of exotic beasts!

Even though they were formed with the power of the Pocket World Array and lacked the special abilities of true exotic beasts, their fearless nature made them even more terrifying.

They could tell that the Seventeenth Prince of Great Yong was quite powerful, but faced with such a dreadful beast tide, it was exceedingly dangerous.

Under such a beast tide, merely surviving was commendable, let alone focusing on cultivating the Primordial Spirit Cultivation Method.

"Mountain-Bound Elephant King, Hundred-Eyed Snake, Flaming Hound..."

Lin Yue glanced at the leading Beast Kings, immediately recognizing them, and sensing their aura, he understood what rank these Beast Kings were.

The leading eight Beast Kings were all peak King Rank exotic beasts with normal bloodlines!

Generally, only Great Cultivators who achieved the sixth layer with five consecutive victories in Tianxia Building could match them.

These eight peak Beast Kings, combined with the massive numbers of Beast Kings and the Exotic Beast Ocean, charged fearlessly to death, making it so that even those great cultivators had to flee.

"Using the Lifebound Divine Weapon and the Mind Forbidden Technique could manage with difficulty, but..."

Lin Yue extended his hand, and a light silver long blade appeared in his grip, starlight flickering along its edge, extremely beautiful.

"With a Divine Artifact, there's no need for such trouble."

With the blade in hand, Lin Yue felt much assured, then exerted gentle strength, gripping the hilt tightly.

At that moment, his figure turned into a wildfire of wind and fire, flashing eight times consecutively, slashing toward the beast tides charging from eight directions.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!"

Eight massive blades of light burst forth, forming eight brilliant and dazzling rivers of starlight, directly engulfing the eight strongest leading Beast Kings, instantly shredding them and nearby exotic beasts into pieces!

As more Beast Kings charged forward, Lin Yue casually wielded his blade, the starlit rivers obliterating a large swathe with ease.

Then, he flashed back to his original spot, continuing his cultivation on the ninth layer.

"The Divine Artifact truly is powerful..."

Lin Yue couldn't help but silently admire.

Without the Divine Artifact, he'd have to frantically attack with the Lifebound Divine Weapon and Mind Forbidden Technique, dodging constantly, not knowing how long it would take to clear out those Beast Kings.

But with the Divine Artifact, it only took a dozen strikes to clear the field.

The starlit rivers formed by the enhanced blade light of the Divine Artifact carried an exceptionally terrifying shredding power and could expand greatly, making it an unparalleled weapon for both group attacks and one-on-one battles.

"Ninth layer!"

Lin Yue continued focusing on cultivating the last layer of the Nine-colored Beast Breath, while the gale and his flying sword zealously shredded exotic beasts.

Nearby, the ten spirits of the Grotto Heaven remained silent for a while before speaking in disbelief.

"So effortlessly? He actually hid his strength?"

"What a beautiful blade light... Is it some Heavenly Reversal Technique he created, or is there something peculiar about that blade?"

"It seems another person will perfectly pass this Third Upper Cave Heaven."

"We'd better think about what reward to give him... Sigh, are all the princes and princesses of Great Yong this formidable?"

"The previous four were all over thirty, and it was impressive enough for them to perfectly pass the trial, but this Seventeenth Prince is only in his twenties, and he's this astonishing?"

"And his Dao Heart Will is truly extraordinary; he must have cultivated similar methods. The pain of the ninth layer is enough to make many Great Cultivators with strong Dao Hearts faint from pain, yet it didn't even make him furrow his brow?"

Just then—

Lin Yue, standing quietly at the center of the platform, felt the dazzling pure white light on his surface abruptly shiver, silently transforming into a layer of deep, dark mysterious aura!

That aura was as dark as the Eternal Night.

"Completely mastered..."

Lin Yue opened his eyes, revealing a hint of shock in his gaze, "This aura... how is it so similar to the Eternal Night?"

Though he had never been to the Eternal Night, he had felt it within the Black Jade Coffin Illusion Realm.

And after fully mastering the Nine-colored Beast Breath, the dark aura it emitted was precisely like the Eternal Night!

"Yes, exactly like the Eternal Night."

A voice with a hint of laughter sounded, and the ten spirits of the Grotto Heaven, clad in black royal robes, flew over.

"It's the Eternal Night?" Lin Yue looked at them.

One spirit of the Grotto Heaven explained, "Exotic beasts are all favored children of the Eternal Night, growing relying on the mysterious power within it, while the aura formed by this cultivation method is intensely concentrated Eternal Night, making it the perfect lure."

Lin Yue understood.

It was as though cultivators who absorb the essence of heaven and earth would wonder if some Heaven and Earth Treasures had appeared upon witnessing incredibly pure and concentrated essence, naturally desiring to investigate.

Moreover... exotic beasts trusted the Eternal Night more.

"This cultivation method is an exclusive secret passed down by the Imperial Family of Great Yu, and can only be learned here in the Third Upper Cave Heaven through the influence of the Inheritance Stele."

One spirit of the Grotto Heaven explained, "With this cultivation method, one can attract exotic beasts to flock in the Eternal Night, transforming into a lure that exotic beasts are most obsessed with, thereby helping our Human Clan's exploration teams gain more room to operate."
