Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 1631: Chapter 1627: Vanished

Zhang Ji Yuan turned his head to look at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan was smiling warmly.

Zhang Ji Yuan asked puzzledly, ”Little junior brother, what’s wrong with Little Qingyu?”

Chu Zhiyuan replied with a smile, ”Brother Zhang, didn’t you notice her cultivation has skyrocketed?”

Zhang Ji Yuan turned his head to look at Zhou Qingyu again, slowly nodding, ”Cultivation... Oh, indeed, her cultivation has soared, almost catching up with me, hasn’t it?”

Chu Zhiyuan scrutinized Zhou Qingyu, whose aura was surging powerfully, her eyes like lightning, ”Achieved perfection instantly, does the Inheritance Hall have such a marvelous effect?”

Zhang Ji Yuan asked, ”Did the Inheritance Hall inject cultivation into Little Qingyu?”

Ning Dongge said, ”Can it transfer cultivation? It seems to be the first time I’m hearing that.”

He looked at Lu Tiancheng.

Lu Tiancheng frowned, thought for a moment, then shook his head, ”I also heard about it for the first time.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Let her regain her senses first; she’s in an unbalanced state.”

Zhang Ji Yuan looked at Zhou Qingyu, who was as cold as a glacier, ”What’s wrong with Little Qingyu? It’s like she’s become a different person.”

Even she, as the closest little junior aunt, is so stern and detached, which is absolutely abnormal.

Jing Kaiyang frowned and solemnly said, ”Little junior brother, is she possessed?”

”Stop the nonsense!” Lu Tiancheng said irritably, ”Inheritance Hall, where could possession come from!”

”But this situation...” Jing Kaiyang hesitated.

He had battled in the Outer Realm Battlefield and witnessed many Ghost Realm tactics.

Especially the secret techniques of the Demon Clan, which are indefensible.

Has the Inheritance Hall been infiltrated by the Demon Clan?

His face turned solemn.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Brother Jing, rest assured, if someone wants to seize Qingyu’s body, they’re essentially falling into a trap. Her Heavenly Five Mysterious Techniques greatly suppress possession.”

”That’s good...” Jing Kaiyang breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of Chu Zhiyuan’s abilities, he felt his worry was quite pointless.

Little junior brother Chu Zhiyuan is so skilled, how could he possibly let his disciple be possessed?

”Then what exactly is going on?” Zhang Ji Yuan asked confusedly.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”She probably not only accepted cultivation but also memories. Many bloodlines have memory inheritance.”

Zhang Ji Yuan said, ”Does Qingyu also have some kind of bloodline? Is her rapid cultivation because of this bloodline?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and laughed, ”She doesn’t have a Divine Beast bloodline; she hasn’t awakened inherited memories, probably the memories of the Inheritance Hall, concerning our Heaven-Reaching Sect.”

Zhang Ji Yuan was curious, ”What kind of memories can our Heaven-Reaching Sect pass down?”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”The mental methods you obtained are memory inheritance, aren’t they?”

”This... What Qingyu received, how is it different from ours?” Zhang Ji Yuan was even more curious.

Everyone seemed puzzled, being tangled around memory succession, as if they understood but also didn’t understand.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Apart from mental methods, maybe there are some events and the rise and fall of Heaven-Reaching Sect.”

”Just these?”

”Maybe there are some personal memories too.” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”That’s why Qingyu became like this.”

”Isn’t that equivalent to body possession?” Zhang Ji Yuan frowned, ”Is Qingyu truly okay?”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded with a smile, ”There’s no harm.”

If Zhou Qingyu were possessed, she would have the jade pendant and flying knife to assist.

In today’s world, those who can rival his spiritual power are extremely rare.

Even the possessor, trying to break through the jade pendant and flying knife’s power, would essentially be trying to possess him, almost impossible to succeed.

Everyone gradually quieted down, staring at Zhou Qingyu.

Zhou Qingyu’s bewilderment in her eyes slowly receded, her surging aura also subsiding.

When she fully regained clarity, a tea tray’s time had already passed.

”Master, Sect Master.” Zhou Qingyu said apologetically, cupping her fists.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, leisurely walking towards the Inheritance Hall.

He had awaited this day for a long time, eager to see what the inheritance of the hall truly was.

”Little junior brother, be careful!” Zhang Ji Yuan said worriedly.

The thunder was too powerful, too perilous.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and waved his hand.

Zhou Qingyu worriedly said, ”Master...”

Having sensed the vast power of the Inheritance Hall, she was also concerned.

If such power were to backlash, could Master truly withstand it?

Chu Zhiyuan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and as he approached the hall, purple lightning descended once more.

He reached out to catch it, directly absorbing it into the Inner Universe.

With these lightning bolts joining, the vitality of the Inner Universe grew more vigorous.

He stood still, allowing streams of purple lightning to continuously descend upon him.

With the increasing amount of purple lightning, the Inner Universe’s spiritual energy visibly enhanced a bit.

Chu Zhiyuan felt delighted inside.

Lightning is a rarity anywhere, appearing infrequently in normal circumstances.

Especially such power-packed lightning, seemingly concentrated heavens’ thunder, with even stronger power and more abundant spiritual energy.

Zhang Ji Yuan and the others frowned, puzzled by Chu Zhiyuan’s actions.

He turned to Ning Dongge and said, ”Is little junior brother stuck in place?”

Ning Dongge shook his head, ”Shouldn’t be.”

They suspected Chu Zhiyuan was fixed there, not unwilling to move, but unable to.

Being paralyzed by the lightning attack’s force, rendered powerless.

If that were truly the case, with continuous lightning strikes, he would eventually collapse.

”Little junior brother, need any help?” Zhang Ji Yuan couldn’t help but shout.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, ”Brother Zhang, don’t worry.”

Zhang Ji Yuan exhaled in relief, then asked, ”Why not go inside, why endure the lightning strikes?”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, ”I’m experiencing the power of the Inheritance Hall.”

”What’s there to experience...” Zhang Ji Yuan shook his head, confused.

He felt Chu Zhiyuan’s move was too risky.

Lightning, such strong power of the heavens, with little carelessness, could be life-threatening.

Chu Zhiyuan extended his left hand, as if supporting a heavy object, catching streams of purple lightning, drawing everyone’s intense gaze, breath tight.

But after a while, the lightning began to slow, its density significantly decreased, the frequency of flashes decelerated.

Later, there was even no more lightning descending.

Chu Zhiyuan looked up at the sky, shaking his head.

The power gathered by the Inheritance Hall indeed had limits.

Meanwhile, the spiritual energy in the Inner Universe had increased significantly.

The Inner Universe is vast; to enhance spiritual energy by a fraction is already astonishing.

This is the might of lightning.

Next, he extended his left palm.

A powerful force suddenly tugged at him.

He took advantage of the moment and stepped into the hall, then his vision blurred.

He then appeared in another Inheritance Hall.

The hall interior was exactly as he had seen through the Void Divine Flower.

The only feeling was grandeur; standing on the high altar, he seemed to be in the midst of vast starlight, feeling increasingly insignificant.

Simultaneously, a strange force restrained him, rendering him immobile.

He didn’t struggle.

”Boom!”

The Inheritance Hall trembled slightly, then began to slowly ascend, leaving the ground.

The massive hall, as if held by an invisible force, rose towards the sky.

”Ah, where’s the little junior brother!?” Zhang Ji Yuan shouted in surprise, ”Little junior brother hasn’t come out yet!”

Everyone immediately widened their eyes.

”Find little junior brother!” Zhang Ji Yuan rushed towards the hall.

But no matter how hard he tried to knock on the hall doors, they remained unmoved; no matter how he pried, they were impenetrable.

Jing Kaiyang, Lu Tiancheng, and others all exerted themselves to suppress the hall’s rise with their cultivation.

Zhou Qingyu joined in, desperately operating cultivation to suppress the hall’s ascent.

She hurriedly said, ”Sect Master, let’s use the secret technique to summon!”

”Yes, use the secret technique!” Zhang Ji Yuan exclaimed urgently.

Lu Tiancheng said solemnly, ”Then let’s begin!”

They quickly formed an array, then started operating their cultivation, Lu Tiancheng sealing.

Strange power surged skyward, aiming for the hall.

The hall halted briefly in the air, then resumed its ascent.

Under the helpless and hopeless gazes of everyone, it rose higher and higher, eventually disappearing into the clouds.
