"What is it? I have a feeling... Yang Xiao just broke through."
Yang Ziling said, a little excited.
Yang Tian glanced at her.
"He did break through, but it's just his cultivation. At this point, even if he breaks through to the Martial Saint Realm, it still... Huh? What's going on?"
In that casual mont, Yang Tian had sensed sothing.
But when he looked at Yang Xiao again...
He was stunned.
The guy's Spiritual Power was rising without end.
It wasn't fast, but it was steady. It didn't seem like normal cultivation at all—more like he had swallowed so kind of Miracle Pill.
"What is it?"
This ti, Zhang ngfei also sidled over, curious.
Yang Tian shook his head without saying anything more.
Only Yang Lin...
...wore a wicked grin.
He had absorbed so of Yang Xiao's mories, so he naturally knew a few of the secrets behind the Heaven and Earth Origin Fire. And it was precisely because he'd integrated those mories that he felt so close to Yang Xiao.
It was as if they were biological brothers—brothers who had lived together for centuries.
He felt a deep sense of attachnt to him.
At the sa ti, he approved of everything Yang Xiao did.
So of course, he wouldn't reveal his secrets.
He was simply reveling inwardly.
Especially after hearing Yang Tian cast doubt on his big brother Yang Xiao's breakthrough, he grew even more expectant. 'Just wait until my brother is finished. I can't wait to see the look on that guy's face.'
...
And so, ti passed day by day.
Yang Xiao was tempering his body and spirit.
Yang Tian, Yang Lin, and the others split into two groups.
One group went out to search for the third-floor Inheritance Tower, as well as any trace of Lu Fangliang and Bing Xin.
The other group stayed behind to guard Yang Xiao.
However, in less than ten days...
...they could no longer go out.
The outskirts of the valley teed with terrifying Barbaric Beasts.
The weakest were Tier Four, and there were quite a few at Tier Five as well.
That in itself wouldn't have been a problem.
Putting aside Yang Tian's strength for a mont...
...just take Yang Lin. He had now broken through to the Peak of Tier Five Middle Grade and could even fight against so of the overlords among the Fifth Tier Barbaric Beasts.
And in fact...
...he had done just that.
He acted with his usual arrogance.
In the end, he provoked a terrifying bear-like Barbaric Beast. The beast was clad in formidable black armor, its body imnse and its strength boundless.
Nothing could stand in its way.
Even with a full-power strike, Yang Lin's strength couldn't even break its defense.
If not for Yang Tian's sudden appearance to rescue him...
...this newly resurrected fellow would have likely died at the giant bear's hands.
And because of this incident...
...that giant bear had been circling the vicinity of the valley ever since.
This prevented Yang Tian's group from getting in or out.
They were trapped in the valley.
Strangely enough...
...although Tier Four Barbaric Beasts, and occasionally even Tier Five ones, would appear in the valley, none of them were at the level of a Tier Five overlord.
The truly powerful Fifth Tier Barbaric Beasts never appeared.
It seed...
...it was because of the Inheritance Tower.
But that terrifying, armor-clad giant bear was not a Fifth Tier Barbarian Beast.
It was a Tier Six Beast King.
A Barbarian Beast King comparable to a human in the Small Divine Ability Realm.
Although it only appeared to be at the Initial Grade of Tier Six...
...none of the people present could contend with it.
Even the mysterious Yang Tian seed to have so reservations, claiming he was powerless to help.
Of course, Zhang ngfei didn't believe that for a second.
But the guy was completely obstinate.
There was nothing anyone could do.
They had no choice but to take his word for it.
In his heart, however, Zhang ngfei increasingly felt that the guy was too slick and not at all straightforward, which made him feel even more estranged.
But Yang Tian didn't care.
The four of them...
...could only hole up in the valley.
Waiting for Yang Xiao to co out of his seclusion.
And so...
...another ten days passed.
The ti Yang Xiao had set had arrived.
But looking at him, he showed no signs of coming out of seclusion.
And so, ti passed bit by bit.
Another day passed.
Yang Xiao still hadn't erged.
However, the aura around him had grown even more formidable.
And so...
...three days passed.
Just when everyone could wait no longer and was about to wake him up...
Yang Xiao...
...finally began to stir.
Terrifying power began to surge around his body.
It was just like the Vibrating Sword Wave he had previously unleashed with his sword.
It crushed all surrounding matter to dust.
Even Yang Lin and the others were forced back.
They retreated to a safe distance.
"Senior Brother Yang Tian, what's happening to Yang Xiao?"
Yang Ziling had taken to calling Yang Tian "Senior Brother" these past few days, just like Yang Xiao. Seeing the strange transformation happening to Yang Xiao now, she couldn't help but grow nervous.
"I'm not entirely sure, but I've heard that when so unparalleled geniuses break through to the Void Observation Realm with their spirit, they glimpse the void, which can cause visions to appear. So even gain special powers. As for Little Junior Brother, he..."
Yang Tian didn't continue.
Even though he already thought very highly of Yang Xiao...
...he still didn't truly believe that Yang Xiao would gain a special ability while breaking through to the Void Observation Realm.
After all, that was sothing only true Demon Level geniuses might experience.
Even he...
...had only experienced visions back in his day.
He hadn't obtained any special Void Power.
But...
...everything happening before his eyes...
...was simply too bizarre.
If it were just visions...
...why would the vision manifest into substance...
...and annihilate the surrounding matter?
'Could I have truly misjudged him?'
Yang Tian thought to himself.
His expression grew grave.
And although Yang Ziling was also worried...
...she was also filled with anticipation after hearing what Yang Tian said.
At the sa ti, she was also a little worried.
She now knew that Yang Tian had an extraordinary background, that he was likely a genius from the outside world. Yet, for such a figure to think so highly of Yang Xiao...
...treating him as a junior brother...
...and helping him in various ways...
...Yang Ziling knew that Yang Xiao's future was limitless.
'But what about ?'
'My talent isn't even considered top-tier in the Celestial Cloud Region.'
'If Yang Xiao hadn't taught the Sword Dao...'
'...I'm afraid it would have been incredibly difficult for to even beco a True Disciple of the Pure Yang Sword Sect.'
'Soone like ...'
'...am I worthy of the brilliant Yang Xiao?'
At this mont, Yang Ziling's feelings were very complicated.
She longed for Yang Xiao to soar to the heavens.
But she was also afraid that when that day truly ca, Yang Xiao would leave her.
Conflicted.
Utterly conflicted.
'If that day ever really cos, maybe I'll just watch him leave. But before that, I have to work hard. I have to try my best to keep up with him.'
'It'll be difficult, but I'll be filled with regret if I don't even try.'
Yang Ziling suddenly made up her mind.
And just at this mont...
Yang Xiao's eyes...
...SNAPPED open.
Two tangible beams of divine light shot through the air.
They blasted apart a distant boulder the size of a decorative mountain.
He...
...had broken through.
The aura on his body...
...at that instant, beca incredibly dense.
Finally...
...it converged.
And completely disappeared.
Standing there, he seed just like an ordinary person.
It was the state of returning to simplicity, of appearing mortal.
What was even more frightening was...
...Yang Tian suddenly discovered...
...his own Spiritual Power...
...could no longer sense Yang Xiao's presence.
If his naked eyes couldn't still see him standing there...
...he would have thought the space was empty.
'Could Little Junior Brother have truly obtained a special power? If not, we're both in the Void Observation Realm, so why is he so much stronger?'
Yang Tian was stunned!
He found it hard to believe.
