Night fell.
Under the unremitting efforts of the unknown Divine Being and the Three True Disciples, Lu Ze's Demonic Path value had already surpassed the two thousand point mark.
He could now Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
According to ancient records, the Ten Thousand Transformations Mysterious Demonic Immortal Body creates a huge commotion when Breaking Through.
To avoid exposure, Lu Ze chose to leave his dormitory and head towards the back mountain.
In the Cultivation world, it was the survival of the fittest.
Even in a Righteous Path Sect, it was difficult to guarantee that there wouldn't be so individuals with ill intentions.
His Ten Thousand Transformations Mysterious Demonic Immortal Body was extrely rare.
He understood the principle that an innocent man is guilty for possessing a treasure.
If he were to be targeted by so malicious Divine Being, his future days would likely not be peaceful.
Finding a secluded, uninhabited spot, Lu Ze took out a set of Formation stones that masked aura from his storage ring and arranged them around him.
He had purchased these from a Disciple of the Formation Pavilion; they were a Formation specifically designed to conceal aura.
It was said to completely block the aura of Cultivators below the Golden Core Realm.
Although the Ice Breath Technique he had obtained from Li Moran that afternoon was a High Grade Spell for masking aura, he didn't have proficiency with it, making its use sowhat clumsy.
Anyway, he was just undergoing Foundation Establishnt. Even if the commotion was big, how big could it be?
The aura-masking Formation should be sufficient.
To be safe, he set up two sets, then sat cross-legged in the center.
Holding his breath and concentrating, he opened his panel.
"System, add points!"
Seeing that no one was around, Lu Ze called out with a serious deanor.
With a thought, all two thousand Demonic Path points were added to his Realm.
There was no struggle or pain as one might imagine when Breaking Through a Bottleneck.
With the System's help, Lu Ze's Breakthrough was natural and exceptionally smooth.
Aside from the imnse aura that instantly appeared within his body, Lu Ze's only feeling was:
That's it?
He's already in the Foundation Establishnt Stage?
He closed his eyes, carefully sensing the spiritual power within his body that had transford into spiritual liquid,
and the liquid vortex in his Dantian, the Spiritual Lake, as described in the books.
However,
the Spiritual Lake described in books for the Foundation Establishnt Stage, when first ford, was mostly a trickling stream.
Most people's Spiritual Lakes were just small ponds.
But why was his Spiritual Lake as vast as an ocean and unfathomably deep?
Lu Ze naturally wouldn't suspect that Cultivators were vague about the sizes of "rivers," "lakes," and "seas."
So the only answer could be his Ten Thousand Transformations Mysterious Demonic Immortal Body.
"As expected of sothing that requires 10 tis the Demonic Path value to upgrade, it's truly amazing."
Lu Ze praised with satisfaction.
Just then.
Within the Spiritual Lake... no, the Spiritual Sea, a violent storm suddenly erupted.
The surrounding Spiritual Qi converged towards him like a frenzy.
Lu Ze had never witnessed such a spectacle.
He inwardly cursed, knowing sothing was wrong, then quickly took out the last set of aura-masking Formation stones from his storage ring and placed them around him.
As soon as he finished placing them, the first set of Formation stones suddenly shattered into pieces.
Imdiately after, cracks appeared in the second set.
Above his head.
Under the profound starry sky, enormous phantoms suddenly appeared...
...
Linxian Peak.
Grand Elder Ding Mingcang looked at the strange phenonon in the night sky, his eyes filled with surprise.
"Lihuo Peak, have any deacons recently had a Breakthrough?"
He put down his cup, glanced sideways, and asked the peak's deacon next to him.
"I have not heard of any."
The deacon shook his head.
"Such a strange Heavenly Phenonon... it's truly a pity."
Ding Mingcang shook his head, not paying much attention.
In the night sky, the phantoms changed.
From flowers and plants to insects and beasts, occasionally a few human figures appeared, but there was nothing particularly special.
A Realm Breakthrough inducing a Heavenly Phenonon indicated that the person had considerable talent.
But for the phenonon to be so diocre...
It was most likely because the Cultivation Technique this person cultivated was of low-grade.
It would have been better if they had been discovered earlier.
Now that they had reached the Soul Transformation Realm, it would probably be difficult to change their Foundation.
However, after all, it was a Cultivator who caused a Heavenly Phenonon, so they still had so strength.
Ding Mingcang was about to pick up the cup he had just put down to continue drinking tea.
The light outside the window suddenly intensified.
The diocre phantom suddenly transford into a three-headed, six-ard Vajra, trampling the heavens and earth.
The surprise in Ding Mingcang's eyes turned into horror.
The mont his fingertip touched the cup, the cup suddenly disintegrated into dust.
He had no ti to think; his powerful Divine Sense instantly rushed towards Lihuo Peak.
At the sa ti.
Within several Spiritual Peaks, the Elders successively activated their Divine Sense to investigate Lihuo Peak...
...
Quenching Fire Peak.
Zhong Yi and Mu Yawen, who were happily sparring, suddenly both exited the Illusion Realm, looking in shock towards Lihuo Peak.
"Junior Brother Mu, a master has had a Breakthrough. It seems the Sect's Immortal Path will beco even more prosperous."
"To be able to cause a Heavenly Phenonon, they must be at least in the Soul Transformation Realm... No, it must be beyond the Soul Transformation Realm; I can't sense any aura at all!"
When it ca to serious matters of Cultivation, Mu Yawen imdiately beca solemn.
Zhong Yi looked at the constantly flickering illusions in the sky, his expression strange as he said:
"Why are these phantoms so strange? A Vajra trampling the heavens and earth, a scholar holding a scroll, a Fairy flying on a sword... I feel like they resemble you, , and Junior Sister Li."
"And what is that Immortal wielding the power of thunder? It can't be the Grand Elder, can it?"
"Perhaps I'm overthinking it."
Zhong Yi nodded.
He recalled that before these astonishing phantoms appeared, there were many low-grade phantoms.
Insects, ants, plants, beasts, Immortals, Divine Beings, humans, demons—they changed endlessly.
"With my Realm, I can't even comprehend the aning of these phantoms... The path of Cultivation is long and arduous!"
Zhong Yi sighed, resolving to Cultivate diligently.
"Senior Brother, I picked up a High Grade Fire Talisman. You're going to lose again."
"You sneaky bastard, that doesn't count. Let's restart!"
...
Sword Asking Mountain.
Li Moran opened her eyes.
The phantom of a woman flying on a sword, with /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ an icy expression, flashed by.
"Is it him?"
In Li Moran's beautiful eyes, an icy light flowed.
The Cultivator on Lihuo Peak who caused a Heavenly Phenonon.
For so reason, Li Moran's first thought was of the anonymous Cultivator she had fought that afternoon.
"As expected, he is extraordinary."
In just a mont, Li Moran's aura cald down.
Her inner self was as clear as a mirror.
"Soday..."
"I will surely defeat you."
...
...
At this mont.
Lu Ze knew that sothing big had happened.
He had been in Lingxiao Sect for three years and had never seen any Cultivator's Breakthrough cause such a huge commotion.
The most crucial thing was...
He had just reached the Foundation Establishnt Stage!!
If he were to be caught, it would be one thing if his Ten Thousand Transformations Mysterious Demonic Immortal Body was discovered.
But if his secret of being a Demonic Path Cultivator, or his secret of having the System, were discovered, he would truly be finished!
At this point, he knew without a doubt that the Elders from the various Spiritual Peaks would soon be covering the area with their Divine Thought!
In his urgency, Lu Ze suddenly rembered the Spell he had obtained from Li Moran that afternoon.
"Ice Breath Technique!"
Lu Ze's eyes lit up.
He only had beginner proficiency in this Spell.
It probably wasn't enough to evade the Elders' Divine Sense detection.
But he had another reward—
Ten years of Martial Dao insights obtained from Zhong Yi!
With that thought, he opened the System again.
"Ten years of Martial Dao insights... let comprehend!"
Suddenly, a large amount of insights related to Cultivating the Ice Breath Technique appeared in his mind, as if he had truly studied it for ten years.
In an instant, his Ice Breath Technique reached Major Achievent.
Generally speaking, 10 years of study would not allow the Ice Breath Technique to go from beginner to Major Achievent.
Not even Li Moran herself could do it.
But Lu Ze's Ten Thousand Transformations Mysterious Demonic Immortal Body could.
Without ti to think further, Lu Ze quickly used the Ice Breath Technique.
Almost simultaneously, the Divine Thought of several Elders gathered in the back mountain.
Several streams of Divine Sense continuously moved around Lu Ze.
Yet, they could not detect even a trace of aura.
"Phew..."
Lu Ze let out a sigh of relief.
This ordeal, he had finally avoided it.
