The figure landed, grabbed the undead noble's head, and twisted with all his strength! The undead noble collapsed instantly.
Ye Liang watched in shock!
This mysterious figure was none other than Izan Mei—no, Izan Yamato!
He had finally shaken him off, never expecting to meet him here again.
Izan Yamato looked around suspiciously. "Strange, there's no life around. Why did this ancient corpse activate?
Could it be that someone escaped using a teleportation ability?"
Ye Liang clamped a hand over Aya Fujiwara's mouth, barely able to swallow his own fear.
At this moment, he was hiding within a spatial dimension, so Izan Yamato couldn't sense his presence. Moreover, Ye Liang had concealed his form, making himself completely invisible.
Still, he panicked!
He couldn't even handle an ancient corpse with 60 intensity.
Let alone this dark golden boss with 100-level strength!
"F*** me sideways! Is Heaven really screwing with me?" Ye Liang held his breath tightly without uttering a sound.
Ten minutes later, Izan Yamato finally left!
Only then did Ye Liang exhale deeply and sit heavily on the ground.
Aya Fujiwara also relaxed.
She gasped for air loudly, clearly having been quite suffocated by Ye Liang's hand.
"Ye Liang, what are you doing? This guy is just a member of the Izan family. Are you really that scared of him?"
"Do your family members kill sixth-stage ancient corpses in one hit?"
"Uh…"
The woman was speechless.
When everything became completely silent, Ye Liang finally stepped out from the void. He touched the already dead corpse and instantly absorbed all its divine power!
Since this being was a noble, its divine power must be relatively pure!
Sure enough, just halfway through absorption, his cultivation bottleneck started loosening again!
"I've reached level 49!"
Ye Liang quickly sat cross-legged.
Beside him, Aya Fujiwara watched enviously but could do nothing. Ye Liang had locked her inside the spatial dimension, leaving her helpless.
He took a quick scan of his body.
Ye Liang kicked off his breakthrough.
The energy circulation pattern described in ancient cultivation manuals began activating within his body, quickly enveloping his physical form in boundless energy.
Quality transformation differs from quantitative change!
When this energy starts compressing within your body, it becomes extremely dangerous—if your physical form can't withstand the pressure, you could actually explode!
Ye Liang's face alternated between red and white rapidly, changing colors countless times in a short span. Soon, a surge of energy composed entirely of divine power pierced into his mind!
This was the final stage!
His body had undergone divine power purification, yet his spirit still needed to withstand the divine power!
Ye Liang clenched his teeth tightly!
Gradually guiding the divine power into his spiritual space, a sudden 'ding' echoed. Then, delight appeared in his eyes.
"Congratulations, Master. You have crossed the threshold into the Third Civilization! From now on, your cultivation will proceed smoothly without any further barriers!" The system announcement arrived right on schedule.
"No more barriers? What exactly does that mean?" Ye Liang asked.
"It means exactly what it says."
System, seeing that Ye Liang still didn't understand, explained further: "When humans reach Level 50, they enter the power system of the Third Civilization. At this stage, human energy undergoes a qualitative change, eliminating all evolutionary bottlenecks!
In other words, as long as there's enough energy, you can keep enhancing endlessly!"
"No bottlenecks!"
Upon hearing these words, Ye Liang immediately felt delighted.
He had many sources of energy available, like the death qi from Yomi World and the Chakra River! Although he couldn't touch the chakra in this dimension, he could absorb the chakra from the previous world.
After all, that place was long abandoned.
Thinking about it, a wave of joy naturally lifted his eyebrows.
Trying to contain his excitement, he called out Aya Fujiwara.
Ye Liang's strength had already surpassed Aya Fujiwara's, so he no longer needed to worry about her power.
"Sis, where should we go now?" The divine power here had been completely drained! As for where else adventures might be found, he could only ask Aya Fujiwara, who knew the situation.
Aya Fujiwara looked nervously at Ye Liang; she always felt like a helpless lamb awaiting slaughter, caught under Ye Liang's wolf-like gaze!
Shaking her head to stop herself from thinking too much,
she quickly led Ye Liang away from this residential area.
"The underground ruins are enormous. Besides the residences, which might still hold divine power, there are many treasures in other areas—like the ancient beast-taming arenas and medicinal herb gardens.
Of course, there's also the most tempting one—the legendary Altar!"
"The legendary altar?" Ye Liang questioned slightly.
"Yes."
Aya Fujiwara continued explaining: "You must've heard about Divine Spark Inheritance before. Within this massive ancient ruin, there remains the Divine Spark Inheritance from the Creator God. According to my ancestors, whoever obtains this inheritance can rapidly ascend to the Divine Lord realm within an extremely short amount of time!
This mysterious inheritance is hidden inside the altar within these ruins!"
"Hmph!"
Ye Liang inhaled sharply through his teeth.
After hearing Aya's explanation, Ye Liang's eyes gleamed with fervor! Merely advancing to Level 50 made him feel unprecedentedly powerful—let alone evolving into a Divine Lord!
The Divine Lord of Takamagahara symbolizes Level 100!
"So then, where exactly is this mysterious altar?" Ye Liang asked.
Aya Fujiwara shook her head.
"Nobody knows."
"…"
Ye Liang paused momentarily.
You don't even know and still spout nonsense!
He almost wanted to punch Aya Fujiwara in the face!
Just as he was about to scold her, however, he saw her suddenly panic-stricken, falling to the ground trembling. She was shakily pointing behind her back, seemingly having seen something truly terrifying.
"What's wrong with you?"
Ye Liang was taken aback!
Suddenly!
A voice abruptly came from behind him!
"Bro Ye Liang, do you still recognize me?"
Izan Mei!
No!
It was Izan Yamato!
Ye Liang immediately realized!
He stepped back two paces, a smile breaking across his face. "So it's Brother Izan! Never thought we'd meet again here after our last parting. Fate really brings us together!"
"Yeah! I never thought I'd run into Bro Ye Liang again. I didn't expect you to come to this ruin as well. Actually, I could use your help with something. How about we travel together?"
"Still no need for that."
Ye Liang twitched his brow. "Not sure what exactly you need me for. But I've already got a lady companion for today. With such good company, maybe we should go our separate ways."
"Go our separate ways?"
Izan Yamato blinked in surprise, then burst into laughter. "Ha! Brother Ye Liang is joking around!"
He shot a finger toward Aya Fujiwara. Before she could react, a Black Light blasted her forehead with a deafening boom!
The next instant!
A hole burst open on Aya Fujiwara's forehead!
She slowly collapsed to the ground.
