Chapter 608 – Breaking Through to the Sixth Level of the Spiritual Dao Realm!
In the Tianling Basin, a tall tower stood amidst the pervasive cold and fiery aura, with no sound around it.
A month ago, the Ice and Fire Spring erupted with an endless cold and fiery aura, sweeping across the entire Tianling Basin. After being weakened during its journey, the cold and fiery aura no longer possessed the terrifying power it once had.
In the God Refining Pagoda, two figures sat cross-legged, emanating a majestic spiritual energy fluctuation, which seemed to be constantly rising.
A graceful silhouette stood not far away, calmly observing the two figures, murmuring to herself. “It has been so long. Luo Qingyi has already successfully crossed the tribulation and advanced to the Divine Dao Realm, but Xuan Yi has yet to break through. How much spiritual energy does he need?”
“It’s alright. Xuan Yi is in the Spirit Dao Realm but can slay those in the Divine Dao Realm. His spiritual origin is profound beyond our imagination, so it’s normal for him to take a little longer!” At that moment, Luo Qingyi had finished stabilizing her cultivation, stood up slowly.
After taking the Fire and Frost Holy Tiger as his disciple, Xuan Yi began refining the Divine Spirit Pill and using the Spiritual Source Heavenly Spring Liquid to help Luo Quingyi quickly improve in cultivation, entering the marvellous state of unity between man and nature.
After exiting the state of unity between man and nature, Lue Qingyi’s comprehension and cultivation skyrocketed, breaking through the barrier of the Divine Dao Realm and then braving the heavenly tribulation, she successfully advanced to a realm, same as the sect leader of her sect.
“But it’s been a month already, and he said he would take me out, yet we’ve been stuck in this tower for so long!” A complaining voice echoed.
Luo Qingyi laughed and said, “Okay, Ye Han, it’s just a little longer. We’ll have plenty of time in the future!’
When Xuan Yi took Fire and Frost Holy Tiger as his disciple, he named her Ye Han, giving her the surname Xuan.
“I have no choice but to wait quietly,” Xuan Ye Han shrugged helplessly.
Boom!
Suddenly, the spiritual power in the God Refining Pagoda began to surge, and a terrible pressure emanated from Xuan Yi’s body. Luo Qingyi and Xuan Ye Han immediately turned their heads, their beautiful eyes filled with surprise. It was obvious that Xuan Yi was about to break through.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the pressure emanating from Xuan Yi’s body increased several times, so terrifying that Luo Qingyi and Xuan Ye Han were forced to step back several steps.
“This is not the kind of pressure that can be generated by someone at the Spirit Dao Realm!” Xuan Ye Han exclaimed in shock.
Boom!
The pressure continued to mount, and in the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, the pressure emanating from Xuan Yi’s body quickly retreated back into his body, accompanied by the sound of whistling sword and roaring thunder.
Boom!
The next moment, Xuan Yi’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a terrifying aura erupted instantly, causing the space to tremble as if resonating with Xuan Yi. After experiencing the fusion of man and nature, Xuan Yi not only gained insights in swordsmanship and thunder, but also greatly improved his comprehension of the spatial law.
If not using divine power and Primordial Divine Thunder, Xuan Yi’s power in the Dao of Space was no weaker than that of the Dao of Sword and Thunder.
Xuan Yi exhaled a long breath and his face was full of joy. “Finally reached the sixth level of the Spirit Dao Realm!”
“You finally broke through!” The two women approached, and Xuan Ye Han complained.
Xuan Yi smiled. “Let’s go, I’ll take you to see the outside world!”
“Where are we going?” Xuan Ye Han asked curiously.
Xuan Yi smiled lightly. “The Asking Heart Sect still owes me a spot in the Asking Heart World, it’s time I go collect it!”
“Doesn’t Qingyi belong to the Asking Heart Sect? Are you sure you’re going to claim the spot and not ask for her hand in marriage?” Xuan Ye Han teased.
Upon hearing this, Qingyi blushed and quickly said, “Ye Han, don’t talk nonsense!”
“Okay, let’s go!” Xuan Yi ignored Xuan Ye Han’s teasing and retrieved the God Refining Pagoda into his body. The three of them turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the outside of Tianling Basin.
…
Time flew by, another year passed, and they arrived at the entrance of the Asking Heart World in the Asking Heart Sect.
“It’s been a year since they went in, why hasn’t there been any movement? Sect Master, could something have happened?” The Asking Heart Sect’s Elder asked, worriedly.
The Sect Master, Huyan Jing, shook her head and said, “Let’s wait a bit longer. Xuan Yi has an extraordinary background, and there have been no incidents in the Asking Heart World before. Perhaps it won’t be long before he comes out of seclusion with Ouyang Han and Luo Qingyi.”
The elder nodded at her words and didn’t say much.
“How has Fang Hao been doing during this time?” Huyan Jing asked the elder.
Fang Hao was the eldest disciple of the Asking Heart Sect, and his cultivation was even stronger than Ouyang Han’s, having reached the Second Stage of the Divine Dao Realm.
Xuan Yi’s quota to enter the Asking Heart World was originally supposed to belong to Ouyang Han, but for some reason, Huyan Jing did not surrender Ouyang Han’s quota and instead used Fang Hao’s quota.
As the eldest disciple of the sect, Fang Hao knew the importance of the ten divine fruits and did not refuse Huyan Jing’s request. However, he asked to battle Xuan Yi, and regardless of the outcome, he would give his quota to Xuan Yi.
But the result was a complete defeat.
Under the Extreme Thunder Slash, Xuan Yi used his understanding of the Dao of Sword and Thunder. If he hadn’t held back at the last moment, Fang Hao would have been killed or, at the very least, severely injured.
“Fortunately, the Asking Heart Sect has always emphasized cultivating the heart. Although Fang Hao suffered a setback, he did not fall into despair and is now working hard on cultivation,” the elder said with a smile.
Huyan Jing nodded in satisfaction. “That’s good. Only with the mindset of not getting arrogant in victory and not giving up in defeat can someone become the future leader of our Asking Heart Sect.”
“If Fang Hao can make further progress, and with the ten Divine Dao Realm disciples created by the Divine Spirit Fruit, our chances of success in the upcoming Deserted Spirit Festival will greatly increase,” said the Elder in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Huyan Jing’s face suddenly turned cold. The opening of the Deserted Spirit Festival meant that the new round of conflict between the Asking Heart Sect, the Heavenly Martial Sect, and the Great Ye Dynasty was about to begin.
“It’s not going to be easy. Although we’ve obtained the Divine Spirit Fruit, the situation is still not optimistic. According to Han’er, Wu Zhuo has managed to ally with the Blade King Pavilion of the Earth Spirit Zone as external reinforcement, and the strength of the Great Ye Dynasty goes without saying,” said Huyan Jing in a serious tone.
The Elder was a bit resentful and said, “Ah, is our Asking Heart Sect destined to be suppressed by the Heavenly Martial Sect and the Great Ye Dynasty?”
“It’s not necessarily the case. If the Heavenly Martial Sect can seek external support, we can do the same!” Huyan Jing’s eyes sparkled with a refusal to admit defeat.
The Elder was taken aback by her words and tentatively asked, “Master, are you thinking of inviting Xuan Yi?”
“If we can get Xuan Yi to help us, we may be able to change the current situation of our Asking Heart Sect,” replied Huyan Jing with a flicker of determination in her eyes.
