Chapter 262: Chapter 259: Pure Splendor

A long howl rang out.

Xu Yingying opened her small cherry mouth, and the howl she emitted was clear and melodious, soaring straight into the clouds.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, meeting her open, excited gaze: ”Congratulations.”

Xu Yingying exclaimed excitedly: ”It’s amazing!”

She sized up Chu Zhiyuan, as if looking at a treasure: ”Even more useful than the Miao Ling Pearl!”

”Yingying!” Xu Suying flashed into appearance, speaking sternly: ”Don’t talk nonsense.”

Xu Yingying laughed: ”I’m speaking the truth, he really is more useful than the Miao Ling Pearl.”

She tilted her head and continued: ”If it were the Miao Ling Pearl, I wouldn’t have broken through so quickly.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: ”That Heavenly Ganoderma Building Jade Pill wasn’t given in vain, was it?”

”Here, for you.”

Xu Yingying pulled the Jade Bottle out from her bosom and tossed it to Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan caught it, opened it, and took a look. It was snow-white and flawless, with a faint, elusive fragrance.

As the fragrance entered his nostrils, he felt instantly invigorated, realizing its mystical brilliance.

”With this, you can still break through the First Layer Heaven.”

Chu Zhiyuan immediately laughed.

He was not currently in the First Layer Heaven or Two Layer Heaven, but in the Eighth Layer Heaven.

In this realm, progressing further a layer was dozens of times harder than advancing from the First Layer Heaven to the Second Layer Heaven.

If he were in the First Layer Heaven, consuming a Spirit Pill could possibly propel him directly to the Second Layer Heaven.

Now, it’s just not possible.

”You don’t believe me?”

”I don’t believe.”

”Then you can give it a try, take it now!”

Chu Zhiyuan glanced around and shook his head with a smile.

Xu Yingying snorted: ”Why, afraid I’ll harm you?”

”It’s not that I’m afraid you’ll harm me; I just never break through in unfamiliar places. A discordant state of mind could have an impact.”

”You’re still so shy, how interesting,” Xu Yingying laughed: ”Alright then, take it home to try it out yourself, ... what do you want next time?”

”Strengthening the meridians is already enough.” Chu Zhiyuan said: ”Help me get some Secret Skills.”

”What kind of Miracle Technique?”

Chu Zhiyuan said: ”Miracle Techniques on Body Refinement. Most are lost nowadays.”

In Mingwu Hall, the only truly top-level Body Refinement Cultivation Technique is the Dragon Subduing Sect’s inheritance; others no longer exist.

He wanted to further advance the fifth layer of the Dragon Transformation Technique faster, but this realm had long been sluggish in progression upwards.

He now understood why the Dragon Subduing Scripture’s inheritance had been broken and why Body Refinement Cultivation Techniques were phased out—it truly was too difficult to progress.

Back then, without the Dragon Bone, Dragon Ball, Dragon Blood Stone, and Dragon Fat Fragrance to advance, he would likely still be lingering in the first layer.

”Body Refinement Cultivation Technique? You want Body Refinement? How about I give you a Spirit Pill, a Body Refinement Spirit Pill?”

”What Spirit Pill, what grade?”

”Purifying Bright Pill, Second Grade, how about it?” Xu Yingying said: ”It’s extremely impressive, able to purify the body, making it clearer, more lightweight and precise.”

Chu Zhiyuan said slowly: ”Second Grade Pill is too weak, I want a First Grade one.”

”You’re too greedy, huh?” Xu Yingying pouted, her sweet big eyes staring at him discontentedly.

Chu Zhiyuan said: ”I’ve already taken the Transcendence Pill, ordinary Spirit Pills have very weak effects now.”

”You managed to get the Transcendence Pill?” Xu Yingying was greatly surprised.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: ”Seems Xu girl doesn’t know my recent activities; I have indeed achieved some great feats.”

Xu Yingying looked towards Xu Suying.

Xu Suying nodded gently: ”The Princely Heir has indeed done quite a few significant things lately.”

”Your demands are really high, asking for a First Grade Spirit Pill!”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: ”Comprehending once, advancing one layer, how many Spirit Pills does this save? Just one First Grade Spirit Pill, Xu girl, I consider myself to be quite generous and magnanimous.”

”Hmm, saying it like that, it’s not much.” Xu Yingying tilted her head, thought for a moment, and nodded: ”Alright then, First Grade it is. What kind of Spirit Pill do you want?”

She actually had no concept of Spirit Pills, and she never lacked them, she could have whatever she wanted.

But when her Divine Skill reached the later stage, she could only rely on self-realization; the external influences of Spirit Pills and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were limited.

The Miao Ling Pearl was crucial.

Compared to the Miao Ling Pearl, these Spirit Pills indeed were not worth mentioning.

Chu Zhiyuan said: ”Then a Body Refinement Spirit Pill.”

”The Purifying Bright Pill is actually quite good.”

”First Grade.”

”...Fine, a First Grade Body Refinement Spirit Pill, that should be the Purifying Elixir, right?”

Xu Suying smiled: ”Purifying Elixir is indeed not bad, much more effective than Purifying Bright Pill.”

”Good.” Chu Zhiyuan laughed: ”Then we’ll exchange with Purifying Elixir next time, ... when will you advance to the next realm?”

”In a month.” Xu Yingying’s big eyes flashed, assuredly said: ”A month is enough.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: ”A month, indeed not bad. Then see you in a month.”

”Don’t want to test each other’s Swordsmanship?” Xu Yingying hurriedly said.

She always wanted to spar with Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head: ”In terms of Swordsmanship, you’re far inferior.”

”Hmph!” Xu Yingying immediately showed displeasure: ”Bragging, who’s inferior! How do you know without comparing? My Swordsmanship is exceptional!”

Chu Zhiyuan said: ”Is the Jiuli Divine Sect’s Swordsmanship the Jiuli Divine Sword?”

”Indeed.”

”Then let’s forget about it. Oh yes, let me tell you some good news, Xu girl.”

Xu Yingying’s big eyes stared at him.

”My Heir’s Wife has already become the Holy Daughter of Yao Yue Palace, and she will come to visit your Jiuli Divine Sect.”

”Hmm?” Xu Yingying blinked her big eyes, looking bewildered.

Xu Suying hurriedly said: ”Miss Xiao has become the Holy Daughter of Yao Yue Palace?”

Chu Zhiyuan then explained the true situation, causing Xu Yingying’s eyes to widen even more.

Xu Suying looked at him with admiration.

”Your wife is actually going to become the Holy Daughter of that group of lunatics in Yao Yue Palace?!”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled at her.

He told her this news to further understand Yao Yue Palace.

He couldn’t obtain this information through the Court, and Xiao Ruoling’s perspective was too narrow.

He wanted to see Yao Yue Palace from more angles and understand what it truly was.

”Chu Zhiyuan, still, have your Heir’s Wife return quickly, it would be best.”

”Yingying.”

”Master, I’m not wrong.”

”Why do you say they’re lunatics? Is it because they’re unreasonable or because they act wildly?”

”They’re too vicious, killing without batting an eye.”

”Oh?” Chu Zhiyuan was surprised: ”Does Yao Yue Palace kill indiscriminately?”

”...Well, not exactly innocent, just unnecessary killings.”” Xu Yingying snorted: ”They’re very fierce, always killing. Those whom they could kill or spare, they surely kill, showing no mercy at all.”

”Such as?”

”Like those who steal things from others, it’s enough to teach them a lesson; their crime does not warrant death, but if they encounter them, they kill them directly.”

”What do they steal?”

”Clothes, jewelry, even some food and drinks. In short, these people are bad, but there’s no need to kill them.”

”Anything else?”

”They also make life difficult for our Jiuli Divine Sect disciples, always punishing them.”

”Did the Jiuli Divine Sect disciples offend them?”

”Well, there were offenses, but they hold grudges too much, and they always cause trouble for us Jiuli Divine Sect members, endlessly, it’s so annoying.”

Chu Zhiyuan touched his chin, pondering in silence.

”Isn’t that enough?” Xu Yingying said discontentedly seeing him so, ”Doesn’t that count as lunatics?”

”I suppose it does.” Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Xu Yingying gave him a sideways glance: ”I knew it, your woman became a Holy Daughter, and now you’re biased towards them.”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: ”Then I’ll take my leave, see you in a month.”

With that, he started to walk away.

Xu Yingying followed him out, came to the gates of the manor, and waved her hand: ”I’ll be staying here in this area for a while, if you have time you can come by for a visit, spar in Swordsmanship.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: ”Let’s spar next time, so you know how lacking your Swordsmanship is.”

Xu Yingying pouted, pulled out a small Jade Bottle from her bosom and tossed it to him: ”Here it is, the Purifying Elixir, I’ll give it to you first, you better not act dishonestly.”

”Smart!” Chu Zhiyuan took a glance, then laughed, cupped his fist in a salute: ”Until we meet again!”

He mounted the Heavenly Dragon Divine Horse, transforming into two streaks of golden light and went away.
