“Who is breaking through to Nine-star Great Emperor?”
Within the Ancestral Land, the Old Ancestors of the four lineages – Cang, Tian, Xuan, and Dao – were all startled. In an instant, countless Divine Senses and Divine Thoughts shot towards Azure Mystery Peak.
At this very moment, Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen’s auras were still climbing, surging towards Nine-star Great Emperor Late-stage!
Boom!
A terrifying Spirit Fire erupted from Ji Fuyao’s body, rapidly spreading outwards. Supreme killing intent condensed around her, and the temperature of this entire world instantly soared as a dreadful Spirit Fire shot into the sky. The Eight Desolations Annihilation Flame automatically activated, all its seals breaking. Behind Ji Fuyao, her Ultimate Emperor Weapon, a spear, also soared skyward, unleashing a terrifying roar.
“Zzzzzing!”
As its master broke through, the sentient weapon resonated, and in a flash, the entire Azure Mystery Peak was engulfed in towering Spirit Fire, like a colossal sun rising to illuminate the heavens.
A Heaven and Earth Phenomenon!
On the other side, Ye Chen’s Martial Dao Will surged endlessly from his body like a breached sea, as if without limit.
“Boom!”
The virtual image of his Martial Dao Furnace directly manifested. Ye Chen stepped into the void, his white robes billowing with the fierce winds, his long hair flying. His back gradually overlapped with the owner of the Desolate Heaven Art, his figure spanning heaven and earth, swallowing mountains and rivers, bearing the sky. Ye Chen overlooked the world, gazing down upon all creation, and slowly spoke.
“I am Desolate Martial Great Emperor, I shall suppress all enemies in the world!”
In his left hand, the Fire Refining Furnace roared, while in his right, the Bone-Chilling Ghost Flame began to unseal, its aura towering. Both Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen stood majestically in the void.
The Grand Dao Sect disciples erupted in a frenzy.
“This, this is… what happened?”
“Why did Fuyao and Ye Chen directly break through to Nine-star Great Emperor Late-stage?”
“It must be the White Robe Great Emperor. But how did he do it?”
On Ethereal Peak, Body Tempering Peak, and Sword Peak, Liu Xuan, Fang Yan, and Luo Lingkong stared at the scene with incredulous expressions.
Nine-star Great Emperor Late-stage!
No. In less than a month, they’d soared from Five-star Great Emperor to Nine-star Great Emperor?
“Pfft!”
Luo Lingkong directly spat out a mouthful of essence blood. His Dao Heart was struck, almost shattering. They’d agreed to rise together, hadn’t they? Why were they suddenly cheating?
At this moment, countless prodigies of the sect were filled with regret. Ahhh… Why didn’t they become Peak Master Lu’s disciples? If they could do it again, even if their families beat them to death, they would still become Lu Xuan’s disciples.
They remembered two years ago, when Peak Master Lu came to recruit disciples, disheartened after seven consecutive years of failing to recruit any, mocked by everyone. Just then, a Grey-robed Elder wore a bitter expression, dead memories assaulting him.
“Sigh… I was truly blind. That day, I boasted that if Peak Master Lu could recruit a disciple, I’d swallow ten pounds of shit.”
The Sword Peak Peak Master curiously asked, “What happened then?”
The Grey-robed Elder replied, “What are you expecting?”
The Sword Peak Peak Master: “…”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Genius Lin Feng stood in the crowd, looking at Ji Fuyao with only reverence. He recalled those years, when he’d even wanted to pursue Ji Fuyao, but before he could get close, Ji Fuyao beat him up. Now the gap was too vast; he cultivated desperately, yet wasn’t even in the Saint Realm.
At this moment.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Within the Ancestral Land, the Old Ancestors of the Cang, Tian, Xuan, and Dao lineages all stepped into the void. Dozens of divine rainbows shot out, flying towards Azure Mystery Peak. In the Ancestral Land, only Dao Xuan Old Ancestor had not yet emerged, the sole Three-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme. Everyone looked at Ye Chen and Ji Fuyao, excited. Their cultivation had already surpassed most of the Old Ancestors of the Cang and Tian lineages. This was simply unbelievable.
Dao Xuan Old Ancestor’s eyes were moist. “Excellent! Excellent! If the Ancestor knew, he would surely be delighted.”
Ye Chen: “…”
Ji Fuyao: “…”
The Sect Master and all the Peak Masters flew over. The Sect Master smiled. “Truly wonderful. Their cultivation is much higher than mine.”
Many Peak Masters laughed. “Sect Master, you’re almost Attaining Emperor too, aren’t you?”
The Sect Master’s old face flushed. “Almost.”
Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen respectfully bowed to the Old Ancestors and Peak Masters, then bowed to Lu Xuan.
“Thank you, Master.”
Lu Xuan nodded, saying to everyone, “The Supreme Path is about to open. You can prepare in advance. Dao Xuan Old Ancestor can also emerge.”
Many Old Ancestors nodded. “Good.”
After everyone left, Chen Changsheng said, “Master, tomorrow I will open the Supreme Path.”
Lu Xuan said, “Alright. Let’s eat first.”
Chen Changsheng immediately entered the thatched cottage to cook. Cooking smoke curled upwards. Ji Fuyao, Ye Chen, and Baili (Xuanji Holy Lord) still wanted to use this time to cultivate.
Lu Xuan stopped them. “Just rest today.” He felt a little pity for his three disciples. Aren’t they just donkeys from a production team?
Ye Chen, Ji Fuyao, and Baili immediately sat by the stone table, then started cultivating again.
Lu Xuan: “…” Cultivation maniacs!
Just then, the System’s voice rang out.
“Ding! Synchronizing First Disciple Ji Fuyao’s cultivation!”
“Ding! Synchronizing Second Disciple Ye Chen’s cultivation!”
As the sound fell, two streams of pure spiritual energy surged into Lu Xuan’s body, like great rivers crashing through him. Lu Xuan’s cultivation foundation continuously rose! Another step closer to Two-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme!
A moment later, Lu Xuan said calmly, “In a bit, I’ll go find Elder Mu and help you exchange for the complete Grand Dao Scripture.”
Chen Changsheng said, “Master, I need it too.”
Lu Xuan nodded. Just as he was about to rise, a divine rainbow shot from afar. It was Elder Mu! Elder Mu, in a grey robe, landed on Azure Mystery Peak with a chuckle. “Lu Xuan, Dao Yuan Old Ancestor asked me to bring you the Grand Dao Scripture jade slips.”
Lu Xuan sat back down. “Good.” Four copies in total! Lu Xuan smiled. “Thank you, Elder Mu.”
Elder Mu nodded, a look of relief on his face, and said to Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen, “The future belongs to you!” Then he left Azure Mystery Peak.
Lu Xuan handed the Grand Dao Scripture jade slips to his four disciples. Ji Fuyao’s eyes sparkled with divine radiance. “Extreme Dao, I’m coming!” She hadn’t expected this day to come so quickly! Ye Chen also said, “I also want to enter the Extreme Dao!”
Not long after, Chen Changsheng emerged, carrying steaming hot dishes: Stir-fried Fire Jiao meat, sweet and sour Fire Jiao meat, tea-smoked Fire Jiao meat… a whole family bucket of Fire Jiao meat. Time to eat.
Just then, a little girl’s yawn sounded. “Whoosh!” A green-skirted girl materialized and landed in Lu Xuan’s arms. The Heavenly Dao actually came!?
The green-skirted girl’s cheeks were like pink jade carvings, her delicate features flawless. Her face held a sleepy expression, her petite figure revealing a hint of curves, her chest slightly swelling, and her slender, fair calves gleamed as she hung from Lu Xuan’s waist. She was exquisitely tender and beautiful.
Lu Xuan looked down. “Hmm? Grown a little?”
The green-skirted girl pouted, lightly punching Lu Xuan with her pink, tender fist. “What are you talking about?”
Ji Fuyao looked at the green-skirted girl, her heart trembling. A touch of envy. The green-skirted girl opened her delicate lips into an ‘O’ shape. “Feed me.”
Lu Xuan ate on his own, completely ignoring the green-skirted girl. The green-skirted girl was so angry she ground her tiny tiger teeth. “Ah!!”
Xuanji Holy Lord was slightly surprised. The Heavenly Dao and Lu Xuan were already this familiar?
Seeing Lu Xuan ignore her, the green-skirted girl huffed indignantly. She conjured a stone stool for herself, sat beside Lu Xuan, and began eating, grumbling discontentedly. “You’re so heartless.”
Lu Xuan said calmly, “You’re not my disciple.” Ji Fuyao’s heart warmed. The green-skirted girl blinked her big eyes. “Trying to trick me into becoming your disciple? No way.”
Lu Xuan: “…”
The green-skirted girl suddenly pointed to the depths of the void above Azure Mystery Peak. “There’s someone there!”
Lu Xuan nodded. He had already noticed. This person was a Three-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme from Dark Shadow Island. He had been lurking for several days. The green-skirted girl looked at the void. “Hey, come out!”
As her voice fell, the figure deep within the void froze. He was one of Dark Shadow Island’s Eight Killers, a Dark Shadow Monarch, Chen Luo. His face was filled with disbelief.
“Huh?”
“I’ve been exposed?”
