After conducting his research, Ye Luo finally reached a conclusion!

This clothing actually contains a trace of the Dao! Damn, what kind of tribe is this? Even those ancestral level masters can’t handle it!

Of course, Ye Luo could discern that the Dao in the fabric is naturally occurring!

Could it be that the materials needed for this clothing also originate from the Five Dao Ridges?

It’s highly possible!

No matter what, although this clothing looks old, it’s definitely a treasure, and moreover, Ye Luo personally tested it; the defensive power of this clothing is quite astonishing. Even if he struck with all his might, he couldn’t damage it! That’s the power of the Dao!

Therefore, the next day, Ye Luo directly asked Dao’er for a set for Nuonuo as well!

Although this clothing is very precious, Dao’er didn’t hesitate and quickly provided a set for Nuonuo!

The clothes not only look earthen but also particularly ugly, yet Nuonuo obediently put them on, knowing that Ye Luo wouldn’t get her something so ugly for no reason. There must be a purpose.

Soon, Nuonuo discovered the unique features of this clothing! Wearing it, she didn’t have to worry about environmental influences, and when she practiced body refinement, she had to take it off; otherwise, the clothes would shield her from the environment, preventing her from cultivating!

Undeniably, the days in the tribe were the most leisurely for Ye Luo and Nuonuo.

Every day, apart from cultivation, Nuonuo would cling to Ye Luo, who told her interesting stories from other worlds, drawing from his vast experiences.

Often, as he told stories, Nuonuo would lean against his arm and fall asleep peacefully.

Such days lasted about half a month, during which the environment grew even harsher.

One day, Dao’er found Ye Luo to tell him that the Five Dao Ridges had appeared in this region, but the time wasn’t right yet, so they had to set up camp here!

However, here, there was hardly any distinction between night and day, and the outside sandstorms were fierce. Even with the clothes, they didn’t dare go out casually!

Yet, Ye Luo also noticed that the tribe’s tents, though precarious in these conditions, could still endure, and the raging power of laws inside the tents was considerably mitigated!

Undoubtedly, these tents also incorporated the principles of the Dao to achieve this.

In such an environment, even Ye Luo’s body refinement benefited significantly.

So, while the tribe people drank and idled, Ye Luo took off his clothes to refine his body outside.

Sometimes, Nuonuo accompanied him, but she couldn’t last even an hour now.

As for Ye Luo, he often started in the morning and trained until evening, yet he bore no visible wounds. His physical body indeed had reached a formidable level.

However, as the Five Dao Ridges opened, cultivators began to appear here.

Many seemed to know about the Five Dao Ridges!

Ye Luo even glimpsed the shadows of inland cultivators!

Thinking about it, it made sense; ancient and grand families like the Dragon Clan couldn’t be unaware of such a secret!

Yet, Ye Luo felt trapped because the shadow of the Dragon Clan seemed to follow him wherever he went. Encountering them would inevitably lead to a fierce battle!

Still, the Dragon Clan hadn’t appeared, but another force that Ye Luo found extremely annoying did show up—the Returner Alliance! Ye Luo always perceived them as a bunch of abnormal cultivators.

To the point that they were like mad dogs, biting anyone they saw!

Moreover, quite a few returners came this time, and crucially, their cultivation was not low at all!

If the harsh environment hadn’t limited their attack power, they would certainly have swept through all the surrounding forces.

Even so, a force of returners was headed towards the tribe.

Ye Luo immediately opened his eyes, yet remained unfazed; this was the South Territory, and he had no fear of these cultivators! As long as no ancestral level cultivators appeared, no one could defeat him—not even the returners.

"Haha, kid, quickly roll back to your tribe and tell your Clan Leader that Grandpa Returner has arrived!" one of the returners yelled loudly.

However, as soon as he spoke, a violent power of laws entered his mouth, causing him to widen his eyes and cough intensely, eventually coughing up blood before finally dispelling the power of laws.

Seeing this, Ye Luo laughed mockingly. These guys clearly hadn’t been to the South Territory before; their survival skills were pathetically lacking.

"Damn, you’re not going to report it, and you dare mock me here? Are you tired of living?"

The returner’s eyes widened. The previous incident had made him lose face, so he planned to kill this annoying young man.

The other returners didn’t take Ye Luo seriously; to them, he was just another ordinary young man, easily killable. They’d killed countless people along the way.

But before Ye Luo could make a move, Nuonuo jumped in.

Even wearing that weird clothing, Nuonuo moved agilely, and after days of body tempering, her physical strength grew even more robust!

Despite her physical prowess being roughly equivalent to the peak of the sixth level of the Earth Martial Realm, in the South Territory, she had better adaptability and survivor ability than a cultivator at the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm!

More importantly, she had the auxiliary effect of that strange clothing!

After all, no matter how strong you are, if you can’t move, you’re stuck!

Even an ordinary person could pierce a motionless cultivator to death!

Because of this principle, Nuonuo chose to fight! Since her agility was barely flexible, at least she was faster than these returners; though her strength was relatively weaker, it posed no real danger.

More importantly, this was a rare experience for her.

Because of that, Ye Luo didn’t react at all.

Seeing a little girl jump out, the returners were stunned for a moment before they began to smirk.

"Not bad—this little chick is pretty spicy! Haha, who knew the South Territory had such prime chicks!"

"Haha, then we won’t be lonely tonight!"

"Not bad, this is a bonus haul!"

The returners began to laugh in low tones. Having learned from their earlier mistake, they no longer spoke loudly. Hearing these words, Nuonuo’s eyes turned icy cold.

"You’re courting death!" she shouted and swung a palm attack!

Great Sage Palm! However, the power of this palm was only equivalent to the sixth level of the Earth Martial Realm, posing no real threat to these men.
