"Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit..."
Xue Tianao was undoubtedly the one with the ugliest expression in the room, after all, this was Xuanyin Hall, and within the most important place in Xuanyin Hall, Xuanyin Cave, a Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit had unexpectedly appeared. As the Xuanyin Hall Master, he could not shirk his responsibility.
Xue Tianao had been seated as the Xuanyin Hall Master for quite a long ti, and when he first beca the Xuanyin Hall Master, the sealing in Xuanyin Cave was not so formidable. This clearly changed with the potential presence of the primordial strength of a Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit within the cave.
In Xue Tianao's eyes, if he had discovered the existence of the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit earlier, he could have assembled the experts from Teng Continent, like those beside him, to eliminate the still-sleeping Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit in one go.
Unfortunately, such matters, such affairs at the Xuanyin Hall headquarters, required an outsider nad Yun Xiao to inform them, only then did it draw their attention, making Xue Tianao feel sowhat ashad at this mont.
Now, with the seal so formidable, a seal set by a Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit, even if it was a re instinct during slumber, it was beyond what they could break. Unless soone of Heavenly Realm strength ca along.
Elder Lu Yanji, even as the strongest in Tenglong Continent now, was rely at the peak of Lingyun Realm and had a long way to go before reaching Heavenly Realm.
"Tenglong Continent is in trouble now!"
As various thoughts ran through Xue Tianao's mind, Lu Yanji finally turned around and softly said this, albeit with so helplessness.
It seed he knew that among the human cultivators in Tenglong Continent, no one could possibly break the seal set by the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit.
Moreover, the seal set by a Strange Spirit and the seal set by a human powerhouse had so fundantal differences. Even with the combined strength of the four great experts and the support of the power-accumulating array, the power to break the seal was incredibly close to the attack power of the Heavenly Realm.
Yet, such power still posed no threat to that seal, giving Lu Yanji reason to believe that even if the four top forces combined with all the Heavenly Rank Third Realm experts of the thirteen first-class forces, they would unlikely break the seal set by the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit.
"Are we just going to sit and watch?"
Wei Duzheng, the President of the Spirit Fighting Comrce Guild, was quite agitated, as the pressure from the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit was imnse. Once it awakened, it would undoubtedly wreak havoc on Tenglong Continent, and their Spirit Fighting Comrce Guild would be no exception.
"If you have a way, I wouldn't mind trying again!"
Lu Yanji gave Wei Duzheng a sidelong glance, and with just one sentence, shut him up. If he had a way, why would he be so agitated? It was precisely because he couldn't find a solution that he was so anxious.
"Xue Tianao, your Xuanyin Hall must take at least half the responsibility for this matter!"
Similarly irritated, Wu Zhukong, the Palace Master of Wuyan Palace, lashed out at Xue Tianao, having always been at odds with the Xuanyin Hall Master, and coupled with the events in Extre Yin City a few days ago, he naturally found this an opportune mont to add insult to injury.
"This indeed was an oversight on my part, I won't shirk responsibility, but the most urgent task is to unlock the seal. If the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit truly awakens, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
In response to Wu Zhukong's criticism, Xue Tianao uncharacteristically did not argue. However, after he spoke, Lu Yanji also nodded slowly in agreent.
"Hall Master Xue is right, in the face of a formidable enemy like a Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit, we must put aside our internal conflicts. Squabbles within will only make us the laughingstock of the Strange Spirit!"
Lu Yanji's words finally silenced Wu Zhukong. He ultimately understood that if the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit erged, Xuanyin Hall would indeed bear the brunt, but once it wreaked havoc, Wuyan Palace might not be spared either. This was no ti for petty quarrels.
"We must think of so thod. If we can break this seal in advance, perhaps we can dissolve the looming disaster before it takes shape!"
After suppressing the internal conflicts, Lu Yanji's gaze turned back to the seal on Xuanyin Cave as he muttered. Upon hearing his words, Wei Duzheng, the President of Spirit Fighting Comrce Guild, turned his eyes as an idea ford in his mind.
"Elder Lu, should we call upon those first-class forces as well? I don't believe that pooling together all the power of Heavenly Rank experts can't break this turtle shell!"
Wei Duzheng seed to favor the principle of strength in numbers, and the people he was referring to were naturally the power holders of each of the major first-class forces, who had at least reached the level of Heavenly Rank.
"That might not be a bad idea. Go ahead and make the arrangents!"
Lu Yanji nodded. Knowing that a Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit lay within Xuanyin Cave, doing nothing and rely waiting would seem too passive.
After all, Lu Yanji understood in his heart that since the Holy-grade Heavenly Spirit had set such a formidable seal, it indicated that this period was extrely important to it and could not allow any external disturbance, especially from strong characters like him in the Heavenly Rank Third Realm.
If the seal can be broken ahead of ti, this terrifying catastrophe might be averted early. No matter what, they must try every possible thod, as this concerns the lives of millions on the Tenglong Continent.
"For now, let's all stay in the Xuanyin Hall and put our heads together to see if there are any other solutions!"
Lu Yanji concluded, then directly walked to the entrance of Xuanyin Cave and sat down, staring intently at the seemingly empty entrance, carefully sensing the changes in the aura within.
The other three went off to arrange various matters. This was a major affair; besides Wei Duzheng sending ssages to the top forces, Xue Tianao also entered the intelligence departnt of Xuanyin Hall to carefully review the array masters on the Tenglong Continent.
Hopefully, these special cultivators can find a way to dissolve the seal.
A current sweeping across the entire Tenglong Continent has already begun to move, yet Yun Xiao, located in the depths of a certain mountain range, remains completely unaware, for he has arrived at a significant mont.
...
Deep within the expansive mountain range!
A figure sits cross-legged atop a large tree, appearing to be Yun Xiao, and it's been exactly half a month since the night he killed Su Jian.
In the preceding days, Yun Xiao delved into this mountain range, avoiding detection. Once his injuries recovered, he began refining the Shock Thunder Stone obtained from Su Jian's Waist Storage, absorbing and refining the thunder attribute power within.
The Earth Rank Advanced Shock Thunder Stone, untouched, contained imnsely vast thunder attribute power. After several days of absorption and refinent, Yun Xiao's second Thunderbolt Ancestral Vein received a significant boost.
Along with it, Yun Xiao's ridian Qi Cultivation also saw a notable enhancent. Although Yun Xiao hasn't directly broken through to the Early Stage of the Earth Bending Realm, he's evidently close to the level between the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm and half-step Earth Realm.
Not far from Yun Xiao's position on the tree branch, a small, fiery figure lies there, eyes fixed on Yun Xiao, mouse eyes gleaming with a glimr of anticipation.
This figure, naturally, is the Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan. Notably, Chi Yan's injuries have not only healed well; even its Demon ridian Qi aura is completely different from half a month ago, now reaching the Ninth Rank low-level.
A Ninth Rank low-level Vein Demon is equivalent to an Early Stage Earth Realm human cultivator. It seems Chi Yan, blessed in disguise by Wu Zhukong's heavy injuries, seized the chance to break through to the next Great Rank.
With Chi Yan's combat prowess and the Fire Cloud Rat's special attributes, encountering Early Stage Earth Realm cultivators like Lie Shan or Lin Mo again would likely be effortless to deal with.
Chi Yan's breakthrough was completed days ago, while Yun Xiao remains in the midst of his breakthrough till this mont when a powerful surge of energy bursts forth from him.
Boom!
The branches and leaves around Yun Xiao seem swept by a violent wind, quivering chaotically. Yun Xiao abruptly opens his eyes, finally reaching the half-step Earth Realm, making solid strides on his cultivation path.
In fact, the half-step Earth Realm still falls within the range of the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm. Nonetheless, regarding the usage of Earth Power, Yun Xiao has stepped half a stride towards mastery from re inducent.
If Yun Xiao can fully master Earth Power, he can truly break through to the Early Stage Earth Realm. However, many cultivators on the continent are stuck at this step, unable to progress for life; one must seek the next opportunity for breakthrough.
Yun Xiao is quite satisfied with this breakthrough. Previously, he could contend with Early Stage Earth Realm experts unchallenged, but now, reaching the half-step Earth Realm, his confidence is naturally heightened.
"Hehe, breakthrough achieved, perhaps it's ti to seek that Secret Treasure belonging to Wuyan Palace!"
Elevated in spirits, Yun Xiao chuckles, flipping his wrist to reveal a complete piece of cloth appearing magically in his palm.
Yet, looking at the unfamiliar location on the Wuyan Cloth, Yun Xiao feels utterly clueless, unable to recognize the specifics on the Tenglong Continent before him.
"Seems finding the place should be handed to Shenxiao Sect!"
After gazing at the Wuyan Cloth for a while without any leads, Yun Xiao didn't grow overly vexed. Speaking of the most well-inford place across Tenglong Continent, it's probably Shenxiao Sect.
Yun Xiao initially learned about the details of the Wuyan Cloth from Shenxiao Sect's information.
With a firm decision in mind, Yun Xiao leapt down from the tree, setting his direction westward, soon disappearing into the dense forest, uncertain of what storms may arise from this journey?
