Although it seems incredibly one-sided and unbelievable, moving across this vast earth was indeed a challenging task for Yan Xiaobao. Even a single mont of hesitation was enough to completely thwart the attack he was unleashing.
"Intimidating them is far better than killing them. This way, after we leave, no new courageous souls will co forward. They should at least remain safe for the next few years." With a slight complaint, Yan Xiaobao retraced their earlier path back, his pace sharply slowing as the white-haired boy poured his entire cultivation base into intimidating the City Lord and his elders.
The journey back to the cabin took ten tis longer than their trip outward. Once they reached the clearing, Yan Xiaobao sat down to ditate and began his cultivation. Slowly, he replenished his dried-out Qi and the spiritual energy sea within him.
Inside Yan Xiaobao’s body, a small yellow fla appeared—the Earth Elent. It was currently smaller than the green Wood Fla and the blue Water Fla.
As his spiritual energy returned to the spiritual energy sea, the yellow fla absorbed every single droplet of water, each drop causing the fla to grow in size.
Even after sitting in the sa position for hours, Yan Xiaobao was still far from satisfying the devouring fla, which seed to be growing trendously. As the fla swelled to more than double the size of any other fla, Yan Xiaobao trembled as he watched, his body shaking with excitent. When he realized he could now instantly manipulate more of the earth, a surge of elation grew inside him. His bond with the earth had dramatically strengthened, bringing him closer to the level of unity that Sha Yun had with the earth. Deep within, he felt complete satisfaction.
Finally seeing the fla stop absorbing spiritual energy, Yan Xiaobao could now focus on restoring his spiritual energy sea.
Hours passed as Yan Xiaobao cultivated outside the small cabin, and daylight gradually gave way to night. From the house, cheerful voices could be heard, as the season’s joy ca alive with the return of their mother. The aroma of delicious food wafted out through the open doors, accompanied by a gleaming golden light that made it seem as though night didn’t exist inside the cabin.
Hui Yue awoke after finally replenishing his entire reserve of spiritual energy. Observing the ripples of energy in his spiritual energy sea, Yan Xiaobao smiled with satisfaction, feeling as though he was on the cusp of a breakthrough in cultivation.
They were only in the first chamber of these imnse underground cities, and Yan Xiaobao felt he had already attained imnse power.
Not only had he improved his cultivation base, but by grasping certain laws, the quality of his spiritual energy had been greatly enhanced.
This understanding allowed Yan Xiaobao to amplify the strength of his spiritual energy, which in turn enabled him to face off against Duke-ranked experts. Yet, it also helped him grasp a deeper truth—that no two individuals walked the sa path. Each person makes choices throughout their life, and those choices shape their journey. This very phenonon was what made every person unique.
Above Yan Xiaobao, a strange sight stood out—a star-filled sky hung beneath the stone ceiling. Hui Yue let out a deep sigh and slowly stood up.
Hui Yue gazed at the stars, his eyes wide open, before stepping into the cabin and stepping into a feast. As the white-haired boy entered the house and partook in the gathering, smiles lit up everyone’s faces.
Xinyue relished the food and the company but couldn’t help worrying about Sha Yun, who was alone in the tunnels. No one noticed that Yan Xiaobao had packed a bag of food, especially as he selected an assortnt of treats for his serpent friend for the next ti they reunited.
