A typical warrior would choose an appropriate speed while running in the Divine wilderness. One could not be too fast, not because of stamina, but because one might not be able to discover desolate beasts lurking in one’s surroundings due to the fast speed. By not being vigilant enough, one could easily receive a surprise attack from desolate beasts.
It was not uncommon in the history of the Tai Ah Divine City’s to have examples of cultivators who ran too fast, accidentally entering a desolate beast nest, resulting in there not even having a single piece of their corpses left.
But one could not go too slow either. As the Divine wilderness was too vast, being too slow would waste plenty of time. One could only explore a tiny area if one did, resulting in many missed opportunities.
Yi Yun first used a normal speed to cover tens of miles before he picked up his speed. At the same time, Yi Yun opened his Purple Crystal energy vision.
In the energy vision, every embodiment of energy returned to its original fundamental state, leaving no way for them to hide.
With the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun did not need to spend too much effort in being vigilant.
There were not many desolate beasts that could be killed surrounding the Tai Ah Divine City. Strong desolate beasts were afraid of the Tai Ah Divine City’s energy, so they would all flee far away.
Yi Yun’s destination was the Meteorite Abyss. Legend has it that tens of millions of years ago, a huge star, that burned with Yang flames, fell from the sky, crashing into the Divine wilderness. It broke up a mountain ridge that went on for tens of thousands of miles, creating a huge deep abyss.
This deep abyss was the Meteorite Abyss!
Back when the star landed, its Yang flames swept through the Divine wilderness, burning countless numbers of strong desolate beasts to their deaths. If they were close to the center of the explosion, even primordial species would not survive. They too would instantly be turned to ashes!
After tens of millions of years, the destruction left behind by the fallen star had already been restored. However, the Meteorite Abyss left behind by it was like a huge scar left on the Divine wilderness.
The star had merged with the Meteorite Abyss. Although the Yang flames that swept the Divine wilderness had been extinguished, there were still rainbow Yang flames burning deep within the Meteorite Abyss. All the Yang Qi in a radius of millions of miles was gathered here!
Hence, there were a large number of pure Yang-elemental desolate beasts in the Meteorite Abyss.
Yi Yun’s first attribute choice for cultivating the ‘Ten Thousand Beast Totem’ was pure Yang.
Hence, the Meteorite Abyss was Yi Yun’s first destination.
But, with Yi Yun’s current strength, he did not dare to venture deep into the Meteorite Abyss. He could only kill the desolate beasts, in the exterior perimeter of the Meteorite Abyss, to condense his Aspect Totem.
Yi Yun flew forward with the wind ringing in his ears.
After crossing a large tract of the wilderness plains, he encountered grassland. The grass was about half the height of a person and was called Frost Star Grass.
The leaves of the Frost Star Grass had cold frost dew formed over the years. This frost dew’s temperature was below freezing points, yet it did not form into ice. If a mortal were to cross into the Frost Star Grass grasslands, just a few steps would leave them frozen due to the frost dew.
Yi Yun gathered Yuan Qi and circulated his body’s Qi and blood, creating heat that emanated from his body.
He then rushed into the Frost Star Grass grassland. The glistening beads of dew reflected the dazzling sunlight. It made Yi Yun’s body wet, but Yi Yun only felt some slight cold at his exterior, it did not affect his movements.
With perfect movement techniques and the Purple Crystal’s energy vision, Yi Yun traversed the complicated terrain like a eagle in the sky, and at times, like a lurking python.
On the way, Yi Yun also encountered some desolate beasts. For example, the Specter Python that hid ten meters underneath the wilderness plains, or a creeping Three Spotted Tiger on a hilltop. These were all detected by Yi Yun using the Purple Crystal’s energy vision, allowing him to avoid them early.
Yi Yun’s goal in this expedition was clear. It was to kill pure Yang desolate beasts, absorb their body’s pure Yang power and blood, and condense an Aspect Totem.
Unless there were very valuable desolate beasts along the way, Yi Yun would not stop.
The Meteorite Abyss was very far away. Yi Yun managed to cautiously and stealthily make his way. Only when the dying Sun was swallowed by the horizon, and the star constellations in the sky began to appear, did Yi Yun have to stop.
He had come to a barren plain. The night breeze blew, causing pebbles to roll as it constantly shattered the quietness of the night.
