Linghu Yao and his companion led Fang Qingxiao and Su Yuan to tour the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect.
Along the way, many disciples of the Divine Sect ca specifically to take a look.
"It’s actually Emperor Ye personally eting them and letting Elder Linghu lead them around."
"The leader from the East Continent also seems to be an Eighth Stage King Level!"
"With such experts, no wonder!"
"But the younger one should be the new king among the Earth Tribulation like Fu Sword Venerable and Dugu Sword Master."
"Coming over to the Southern Continent with an Eighth Rank Expert, he mustn’t be simple, probably an extrely formidable new king from the East Continent!"
"..."
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect were all incredibly curious upon hearing that King Level Experts from the East Continent had arrived.
anwhile, Su Yuan, Fang Qingxiao, and others followed Linghu Yao around, visiting so sect landmarks, including the Sword Enlightennt Tower, and experiencing the foundation of a super sect of the Southern Continent.
After the tour, Linghu Yao arranged for Su Yuan and the others to stay on a peak where Star Power was extrely dense.
Without ntioning Fang Qingxiao and Wei Chi, Su Yuan went to Moyun Peak with Fu Chaosheng.
"Brother Su, I didn’t expect we would et again so soon," Fu Chaosheng said with a smile.
Not to ntion for a King Level, even for most Burning Suns, years are just a blink of an eye.
Moreover, since the Dragon Vein dispute began, Fu Chaosheng had already ascended to King Level, and the subsequent ti was almost entirely spent cultivating Laws, making the ti feel even faster.
Su Yuan shook his head and smiled: "But the news I bring isn’t good; if it weren’t for the matter of the Grey Realm, we wouldn’t have co across the sea at this ti."
"Let’s not talk about business for now..."
Fu Chaosheng waved his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, many fine wines, exuding rich fragrances, appeared on the table.
"Tonight, we drink until we’re drunk since we haven’t t for so long!"
"That’s certainly no problem, but..." Su Yuan’s gaze fell on one of the jars of wine, "Brother Fu, you might want to put away that Dragon Tiger Wine first."
Hearing this, Fu Chaosheng laughed heartily: "Alright!"
At this mont, how could Su Yuan not know that Fu Chaosheng had probably done it deliberately back then?
After getting drunk on the Dragon Tiger Wine brewed from the Dragon Tiger Fierce Sun Fruit that night, sothing ssy seed to have happened in a haze.
Thinking of this, Su Yuan couldn’t help but recall a graceful and charming figure.
And that person, coincidentally, was on this continent, at the Taishang Sect...
Thinking of this, Su Yuan couldn’t help rubbing his forehead.
As the two drank, Fu Chaosheng asked:
"By the way, Brother Su, how did you escape from the Curse King during the Great Wilderness Ridge encounter?
That Curse King said you were hit by his curse divine skill; I thought you were dood!"
"Hmm? Did Brother Fu ever face the Curse King?"
Fu Chaosheng said, "Since Brother Su helped beco a king, I felt a connection in the dark.
So during the Dragon Vein incident at the Great Wilderness Ridge, I hurriedly arrived to barely intercept the Curse King."
Su Yuan realized: "So that’s how it was. It wasn’t just luck that I wasn’t caught by the Curse King, but thanks to Brother Fu’s intervention. However, it truly felt like a narrow escape; if not for..."
Recalling the scene, Su Yuan paused slightly.
Fu Chaosheng raised his wine bowl and asked, "What’s the matter?"
Su Yuan hesitated for a mont, then slowly said, "The reason I survived back then seems to be because Mu Kexian saved ."
According to Ruan Ruan, Mu Kexian’s cultivation was almost entirely depleted because of it...
"Friend Mu..." Fu Chaosheng’s eyes moved slightly and he praised, "Speaking of, Fairy Mu truly deserves to be a peerless genius of the Taishang Sect. Her cultivation has now soared to the Second Stage."
"Hmm??" Su Yuan’s pupils shrank, a look of shock in his eyes, "You say she’s now King Level Second Stage?!"
Didn’t Ruan Ruan say she had to use the Ti Holy Artifact to save , causing her cultivation to plumt to Shining Star Level?
How did it suddenly not only recover but also directly reach King Level Second Stage!
Despite the shock, Su Yuan inexplicably felt relieved.
If this were true, all the better, easing so of his own guilt.
Unaware that Mu Kexian had lost her cultivation, Fu Chaosheng wasn’t surprised at Su Yuan’s astonishnt and nodded:
"It’s said that Friend Mu is the only one in a thousand years to master the Supre Forget Emotion Technique to the divine skill level, and also the only one who got the direction right.
Now, both the Taishang Sect and her master, Ei Spirit Venerable, are sparing no resources to nurture her. Two months ago, she had already reached the Second Stage successfully."
"I see..." Su Yuan marveled with a click of his tongue, "That Curse King lived for a thousand years to rely reach King Level Second Stage, yet she reached the Second Stage so quickly."
Even if King Level is an accumulation of the Power of Laws, and the First, Second, and Third Stages are only subdivisions of the Beginner Stage, this speed is indeed astonishing.
Fu Chaosheng laughed and said, "Actually, it’s not hard to imagine that Wen Yun, the Curse King, reaching the King Level was already quite an achievent.
One could say that compared to talent, he undoubtedly had quite good luck.
But even if by chance he beca a king, as a loose cultivator, in tis of peace, there aren’t many avenues to gain Law Treasures or Law Saint Pills, so his cultivation naturally progresses slowly.
Relying only on oneself, if one’s talent is limited and comprehension isn’t good, it’s common to make no progress over a thousand years.
This is one of the reasons why sects thrive while loose cultivators are few and far between."
Su Yuan nodded in agreent, and couldn’t help but think of the Tornado Mad Firefly he obtained from the Curse King.
Indeed, not to ntion the first, second, or third stage, Yang Yifeng directly elevated the Wind Law from the third stage to the fourth stage through the Tornado Mad Firefly!
Although partially because he was originally a Sixth Stage King Level, crossing the bottleneck from the third to the fourth stage in two or three years is progress on par with Fairy Mu Kexian, showing the importance of Law Treasures.
For King Level experts, accumulating the Power of Laws is paramount; having resources or not makes a huge difference, especially in the early stages!
With resources, one can greatly accelerate cultivation speed.
The Ten Great Sects already select and cultivate elites, allowing for more concentrated resources.
Choosing whom to cultivate depends on competition and, more importantly, the will of the higher-ups.
Since Fairy Mu Kexian has amazing potential, it’s natural for her to receive extensive cultivation.
However, the Great Fla and sects differ in this regard.
The Great Fla is nation-based, with nurous people, and rewards are given based on contribution, even if with so flexibility, avoiding uneven distribution.
No matter how exceptional Su Yuan’s talent is, without contributions, he wouldn’t be granted treasures lavishly.
The systems of a state and sect differ and shouldn’t be muddled together.
But either way, both are better than being loose cultivators.
Fu Chaosheng continued, "Now, Friend Mu is rising in prominence, overshadowing not just others but even Dongfang Yi and Ye Shuying."
Su Yuan nodded slightly, happy for the other’s achievents.
"So, how’s Brother Fu’s cultivation going now?" Su Yuan asked, changing the subject.
"? After refining the elixirs granted by the sect... I estimate it could be two or three years before reaching the Second Stage.
But Junior Brother Dugu is more outstanding, just a step away from breaking through to the Second Stage!"
"Dugu Jiu, huh..."
Su Yuan recalled the brief encounter on Qixia Mountain, thinking of the super genius from the Sword Transformation Lineage.
Hua Tiandu could rank among the top three of the Ten Heroes, and also ranking, or perhaps even slightly surpassing him, is Dugu Jiu of the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect!
Fu Chaosheng suddenly rembered sothing, furrowing his brows slightly:
"Two years ago, when the Dragon Vein struggle was temporarily paused, the Taishang Sect invited new kings of various Daoist Sects for a gathering.
At that ti, I went to talk with Friend Mu and found she seed sowhat different from before."
"Oh? How is she different?"
Fu Chaosheng said, "Her aura is increasingly ethereal and transcendent, yet she becos more... lacking ’human warmth’.
Even when I ntioned you, she had no reaction, as if she heard a completely unrelated na."
"Is that so..." Su Yuan’s eyes moved slightly.
Fu Chaosheng said, "It might be because of the Supre Forget Emotion Technique, reportedly, since she ended her retreat, she’s this way not only to us but also to her fellow brothers and sisters at the Taishang Sect.
The Supre Forget Emotion Technique is indeed the hardest divine skill to cultivate, comparable to Seventh Grade Skills, so it’s normal for it to have such side effects.
Just that such a transformation in Friend Mu, I fear she may be... distant to Brother Su. Anyway, Brother Su should be ntally prepared."
Su Yuan understood Fu Chaosheng’s aning, and with a shake of his head, smiled without comnting further.
If Mu Kexian indeed turns cold towards him as well, maybe that’s for the best.
However...
Recalling what happened on Moyun Peak back then, a slight wave rippled in Su Yuan’s heart, but he quickly shook his head to suppress the thoughts...
Several days went by.
Su Yuan and Fu Chaosheng t a few tis, enjoying the rare opportunity.
anwhile, Fang Qingxiao was discussing alliance matters with Lou Zhen.
Only Wei Chi remained secluded, having been in constant cultivation since leaving Heavenly Sword Peak...
This day, as Su Yuan was resting, Fu Chaosheng suddenly arrived by sword control.
"Brother Su, there’s a reply from the Taishang Sect. Your Imperial Throne is currently with Sword Master Lou.
The Sword Master has commanded to bring you and Friend Wei Chi to the Mountain Gate, so we can depart together to the Taishang Sect imdiately!"
