"As ti went by, the Moon God Palace was sowhat ready to give up. That’s when a powerhouse with the surna Yun stepped forward, volunteering to give it another try!"
Yun Wei said this with an unusual glint in her eyes, and when she ntioned "a powerhouse with the surna Yun," Yun Xiao shivered all over.
These two siblings had never t their father and they did not take their mother’s surna, Shang, but had always used the surna Yun. Could it be that the so-called powerhouse of the Moon God Palace with the surna Yun had so connection to them?
Seemingly noticing the confusion in Yun Xiao’s eyes, Yun Wei gently shook her head and continued, "In the end, that senior of the Moon God Palace with the surna Yun did go, but never ca back. It was only because Master has a good relationship with an elder of the Moon God Palace that we know this much."
"However..."
Yun Wei paused here, then went on to say, "Master said that after that senior with the surna Yun disappeared, the Star-picking Tower quietly took so action, seemingly in search of soone. As for what really happened, no one knows!"
"Does sister an that senior with the surna Yun succeeded?"
Yun Xiao’s eyes brightened at the thought of a possibility, but then he questioned again, "That couldn’t be, for if he had succeeded, why didn’t he return to the Moon God Palace? After all, the Blood Moon Jade originally belonged to the Moon God Palace, and I guess there’s probably no safer place throughout the Nine Dragons Continent than the Moon God Palace, right?"
"Perhaps you have a point, but my guess is, that senior with the surna Yun might have discovered sothing when he got the Blood Moon Jade, and that’s why he didn’t return to the Moon God Palace."
Yun Wei had seen more of the world following her master through the years and thought deeper than Yun Xiao. Moreover, she didn’t believe it was absolutely safe inside the Moon God Palace—perhaps this lowest plane, the Hidden Dragon Continent, might be a bit safer?
"Little brother, I’ve told you so much just to let you know the importance of the Blood Moon Jade. Now, Shen Xingmou might have a treasure on her that can sense the aura of the Blood Moon Jade. When sister isn’t around, you must be extra careful!"
After spilling all her thoughts, Yun Wei heaved a gentle sigh. Yun Xiao couldn’t bear to let her go, but how could she bear to leave this brother she had not seen for three years?
Unfortunately, Yun Wei was not like Shen Xingmou; without the backing of a powerful force like the Star-picking Tower, she simply could not stay long in this lower plane. Even this descent to the Lower Realm was achieved by her master, Elder Xuan He, who took risks to persuade an old friend to open a spatial channel.
Once this unofficial descent beca known, Elder Xuan He might be carefree, but his old friend would likely face severe punishnt.
"Heh, I’ve always had my sister’s protection, how can I grow? This might not be a good thing for !"
Yun Xiao reined in the lancholy in his heart and then said, "As long as sister leaves without being detected, Shen Xingmou will have reservations and won’t act rashly. Even if she is a supre talent from the Star-picking Tower, she can’t stay in the Lower Five Realms forever, right?"
It seed Yun Xiao had also given this so thought. However, with Shen Xingmou’s formidable strength, he had to be cautious. Since Yun Wei was bound to leave, he couldn’t let outsiders know right away.
"You’re more thoughtful, little brother!"
Yun Wei gently stroked Yun Xiao’s head once again, sensing the faint daylight outside, she knew she inevitably had to part with this little brother she only got to see once in three years.
"Little brother, you practice your cultivation well. Sister will wait for you in the Li Yuan Realm!"
After years of tempering, Yun Wei wouldn’t hesitate like she once did in the Shang Family. Her voice fell softly, and her figure had already disappeared in an instant from the room, leaving behind a sense of longing.
In the entire Jade Pot Sect, no one knew that the formidable Heavenly Rank Expert had already left, and that room specially prepared for Yun Wei would likely remain untouched by anyone for so ti.
"Looks like I really need to hurry and improve my strength!"
After staring at the spot where Yun Wei had disappeared for a long while, Yun Xiao shook his head with a wry smile. At this mont, he deeply felt the insufficiency of his own strength. Even though he had won the champion title at the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, he was just a young powerhouse in the Hidden Dragon Continent.
With Mid Stage of ridian Union Realm cultivation, not to ntion the gap between him and talents like Yun Wei and Shen Xingmou from the Li Yuan Realm, he couldn’t say for sure he could act with impunity even in the Hidden Dragon Continent.
The path to cultivation is like rowing upstream; if you don’t advance, you fall back. Yun Xiao’s progress from a broken man with ruined ridians to the number one talent of the Hidden Dragon Continent in just three years was not only due to the miraculous Ancient Dragon Taming Technique but also inseparable from his diligent cultivation.
It’s proven that diligent cultivation does pay off. On the morning of the third day, the ridian Qi aura that had been dormant for nearly a month within Yun Xiao finally showed so changes.
Boom!
A majestic wave of energy burst forth from Yun Xiao’s body, followed by all the Heaven and Earth Energy in the room rushing toward him as if drawn by so force.
The breakthrough that was like the completion of a water channel finally ca to an end. From this mont on, Yun Xiao had truly stepped into the Late Stage of the ridian Union Realm as a cultivator, taking another solid step on the path of cultivation.
Speaking of Yun Xiao, it had only been a month since his last breakthrough. Managing to break through again in such a short period of ti was indissociable from the fierce battles he had been engaged in recently.
Several life-and-death battles at the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, coupled with the sudden appearance of Shen Xingmou, had once pushed Yun Xiao to the brink of despair. In such critical monts of life and death, his understanding of the Heavenly Dao was most effective.
Thus, once he relaxed and devoted himself to a full day and night of cultivation, the breakthrough ca as a matter of course. Now, Yun Xiao was confident that if he were to encounter Xuan Jiuding, who was at the peak of the ridian Union Realm, again, he might not even need to invoke the power of the Ancestor Vein to defeat him.
Creak!
After his breakthrough, Yun Xiao opened the door to leave his room, only to see several people standing outside: Sect Master Yu Shu, Great Elder Lu Zhan, and Mo Qingling Pill were all present.
"Yun Xiao, oh? Your aura..."
Upon seeing Yun Xiao erge from the room, Yu Shu was about to speak when his eyes suddenly bulged in surprise, and he pointed at his disciple without being able to say anything more.
Yu Shu’s reaction also drew the attention of Lu Zhan and the others to this fact; they all inhaled sharply, shocked that this young man had broken through again. Did they even stand a chance to live anymore?
This was because Lu Zhan and the others all knew that when Yun Xiao had just returned to the Jade Pot Courtyard, he had only been at the early stage of the ridian Union Realm. In just over a month’s ti during the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, he had broken through two realms consecutively. Was this even humanly possible?
"Could it be Miss Yun Wei?"
Thinking of a possibility, Yu Shu and Lu Zhan were sowhat appeased. After all, that lady was able to prompt a cultivator at the Earth Rank Third Realm to break through instantly. Helping her own younger brother to advance a minor realm would be a trivial matter for her, wouldn’t it?
In fact, Yun Xiao’s breakthrough this ti had nothing to do with Yun Wei. In order to solidify his ridian Qi foundation, she simply couldn’t rely on external forces to promote his progress; that would only hinder Yun Xiao’s future cultivation path.
Even Yun Wei hadn’t given Yun Xiao a single Elixir, much less to say about outsiders like Yu Shu and Qian Sanyuan. Compared to them, Yun Xiao, her biological brother, seed rather pitiable.
"Fortuitously achieved a breakthrough. Teacher, is there sothing you need?"
Yun Xiao didn’t bother to explain too much. He knew that these people ca early in the morning probably not just to witness his breakthrough, but because there was another important matter.
"Oh, it’s like this, yesterday the ridian Refining Master Guild sent people to announce that Vice President Qian Sanyuan will publicly demonstrate the ridian Refining Technique at the guild the day after tomorrow. Moreover, all ridian Refining Masters in Baiyue City, regardless of their level, are welco to observe and learn!"
Yu Shu explained their purpose and then stealthily glanced in a certain direction and finally added: "Vice President Qian’s letter was very courteous, stating that he hopes Miss Yun Wei can also attend to provide guidance and correction!"
Although Qian Sanyuan was aware that Yun Wei was not a ridian Refining Master, the ability to nonchalantly gift an Elixir like the Heavenly Breath Pill suggested that there was an extrely formidable high-level ridian Refining Master behind her.
As for giving guidance and correction, it wasn’t just a respectful phrase from Qian Sanyuan. After all, Yun Wei’s ridian Qi Cultivation was far superior to his, and with her extraordinary background, she might well have so unique insights.
Of course, Qian Sanyuan’s deliberate invitation of Yun Wei was also aid at establishing a good relationship with this powerhouse. Who knows if there might be intersections between them in the future? This could also be an opportunity for the ridian Refining Master Association of Tenglong Continent.
"My sister is not a ridian Refining Master, she will not go!"
Yun Xiao looked forlornly at a certain courtyard, regretting that aside from him, no one else knew it was already vacant; thus, he could only say so.
"Moreover, my sister said she needs to retreat and ditate, and cannot be disturbed by anyone!"
To be absolutely certain, Yun Xiao still emphasized this point. If by any chance soone from the Jade Pot Sect carelessly entered the courtyard and found out Yun Wei had already left, and this news reached Shen Xingmou’s ears, then he would be in great trouble.
"Yes!"
Even Yu Shu didn’t dare to take this lightly. After all, that was a Heavenly Rank Expert. For them, half-stepping into the Earth Rank and able to strut about on the Hidden Dragon Continent was one thing, but in front of Yun Wei, they were probably less than ants, so of course, they dared not disobey.
"Yun Xiao, there’s one more thing that needs your decision!"
After Yu Shu finished speaking, the Great Elder Lu Zhan suddenly spoke up, and with his words, the envy on the faces of the two Great Elders from the Poison Vein was apparent, piquing Yun Xiao’s interest.
Lu Zhan didn’t beat around the bush but pointed to the black-robed girl beside him and said, "Vice President Qian’s letter also ntioned that Miss Mo Qing has a not inconsiderable talent for ridian Refining and wishes to accept her into the ridian Refining Master Association of Tenglong Continent. What do you think of this?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao finally understood why Fu Du and Mo Li from the other side showed such expressions. Clearly, it was out of envy.
