Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1238: Chapter 1238 Good Heavens, You Really Do Love Me the Most! (2nd Update)

In the next moment, Ji Tianyu suddenly looked up and let out a long roar, his aura instantly surged.

The Core Formation Realm was achieved!

However, Ji Tianyu did not seem happy about the breakthrough in his cultivation; instead, his expression was as if he had been castrated.

The inheritance of the Holy Peak is only available to cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage. Any cultivator above the Core Formation stage cannot enter the Holy Peak, whether at the foot or the summit.

Ji Tianyu finally understood why none of his predecessors used an Enlightenment Pill to conquer the Holy Peak’s trial. Because those who did achieved nothing in the end.

Sure enough, just seconds after Ji Tianyu’s core formation, the Holy Peak seemed to rage, hurling Ji Tianyu out.

”No!” Ji Tianyu’s face was full of unwillingness and regret, tears instantly flowing from his eyes.

From childhood to adulthood, he had never shed a tear. But this time, he truly wanted to cry.

Twice, he was so close to the Holy Peak’s inheritance, yet both times, he narrowly missed it.

He was in pain, a pain of losing two perfect opportunities.

He hated it, hated that every time he was about to succeed, he was thwarted by Ye Haochuan.

”Ye Haochuan, one day, I’ll grind your bones to dust!” Ji Tianyu let out a long roar, unable to bear the pain in his heart, and fainted.

At the foot of the mountain, Ji Ba and Ji Tianye, who were watching Xuanwu Peak, clearly saw Ji Tianyu falling down.

”Did he fail again?” Ji Tianye frowned slightly, his face full of disdain.

He and Ji Tianyu climbed the peak together; he had already received the inheritance, while Ji Tianyu had lost the Vermilion Bird Peak inheritance. If he lost Xuanwu Peak as well, this elder brother would no longer be fit to be called one of the Ji family’s twin tigers.

Ji Ba instantly ascended and caught Ji Tianyu.

He initially thought the same as Ji Tianye, believing that Ji Tianyu had failed again. But when he sensed Ji Tianyu’s successful core formation, this thought wavered instantly.

”He must have accepted the inheritance, otherwise he wouldn’t have broken through. I just don’t know why the Xuanwu Statue didn’t appear and instead let Yu’er fall this way!” Ji Ba, who held a significant position in the Ji family and was a senior to the Ji brothers, found this term reasonable.

Hearing this, Ji Tianye frowned and looked up at Xuanwu Peak.

Ye Haochuan was above the fourth step but hadn’t yet reached the summit. Moreover, he had also personally seen Ji Tianyu reach the peak.

Although the situation at the summit wasn’t clear, since he assumed Ji Tianyu had already won, he should have received the inheritance.

”But why hasn’t that rascal been thrown off yet?” Ji Tianye said puzzledly.

”I don’t know, this Xuanwu Peak seems a bit strange today!”

”Let’s wait a bit longer. We must tear that rascal to pieces. Otherwise, others will think they can trample on the Ji family’s prestige at will!” Ji Tianye snorted coldly.

Just as Ji Ba was about to nod, he suddenly noticed a message on his phone. He took it out and looked, his brows furrowing fiercely.

”The family head has issued a decree, ordering all Ji family members to rush to the Imperial Capital immediately!”

”What’s happened?” Ji Tianye couldn’t help but frown as well.

”The decree doesn’t specify, but since it’s issued, it must be something significant!” Ji Ba said urgently, ”Let’s go, we should hurry back!”

Normally, a special decree from the family head is only issued under extraordinary circumstances. Each time such a decree is issued, something major is bound to happen.

”What about that rascal? Are we just going to let him off the hook?” Ji Tianye cast a glance at Ye Haochuan on the summit.

”Of course we won’t let him go!” Ji Ba sighed, ”But not now. Once this matter is resolved, I’ll personally lead a squad to capture him for punishment. How could we, the Ji family, possibly let him have it easy?”

Although Ji Tianye wasn’t happy about it, since the decree had been issued and there was no telling when Ye Haochuan might descend, waiting here was fruitless.

Soon, Ji Ba and Ji Tianye left with Ji Tianyu and some remaining Ji family cultivators.

At this time, Ye Haochuan was unaware of what was happening at the foot of the mountain; Ji Tianyu’s sudden expulsion from the mountain gave him another chance at the inheritance.

With no more competition, he didn’t even have to use a pill, slowly and steadily taking the last few steps.

About half an hour later, Ye Haochuan finally walked out of the air swamp.

”Haha, indeed, it’s not about who laughs the best but who laughs last!” As he stepped out of the swamp, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but laugh, ”Good Heavens, you indeed love me the most!”

Eagerly, he headed towards the stele at the mountain top. This stele was almost identical to the one at Vermilion Bird Peak, except it replaced the Vermilion Bird design with the snake-turtle Xuanwu.

”Xuanwu Force Vein!”

Just as Ye Haochuan expected, the Xuanwu Peak’s inheritance was related to strength.

Looking further down, Ye Haochuan thought it would be a poem like on the Vermilion Bird Peak stele. Surprisingly, there were only four words below.

”Power! Power!”

Ye Haochuan was speechless; the Xuanwu Peak’s test was mindlessly simple, and even the stele was equally mindless.

It seemed this Xuanwu was truly simple-mindedly foolish!

Although somewhat disdainful, Ye Haochuan still eagerly leaned his forehead against the stele.

Soon, the dark Xuanwu totem let out a roar that traveled for hundreds of miles.

The people of the Imperial Capital seemed accustomed to it; within a few days, this was already the third time.

However, some informed cultivators couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

They knew two of the Holy Peaks should have fallen into the Ji brothers’ hands, so who was the third? Could it be a super genius had emerged within Xuanmen?

Just arriving at the Imperial Capital, Ji Ba and Ji Tianye were stunned by the sudden appearance of the Xuanwu totem, looking at Ji Tianyu with added confusion.

But by now, they had no way of returning to investigate, as the family head of the Ji family had already appeared here.

...

On Xuanwu Peak, another surge of powerful spiritual energy flowed into Ye Haochuan’s body. This energy was even more potent than the Vermilion Bird Peak’s inheritance, instantly breaking through the shackles of the Core Formation Stage, causing Ye Haochuan’s cultivation to surge again.

However, after reaching the Core Formation Stage, further breakthroughs required massive amounts of spiritual energy. By the time the inheritance concluded, Ye Haochuan had not yet broken through to the Core Formation Mid-Stage.

Ye Haochuan was content; within just a few days, he’d obtained two inheritances, advancing two cultivation levels. Even a rocket wouldn’t provide such speed.

The Xuanwu Peak’s inheritance retained Xuanwu’s almost brainless simplicity.

”Xuanwu Force Vein, Treasure-Level Late Stage, significantly boosts the user’s strength!”

Ye Haochuan pondered over this phrase repeatedly, feeling somewhat exasperated.

What does ”significantly boost” mean? How does it boost, and by how much?

Just as he was about to curse in frustration, he received a text message from Long Xiaotian.

”Emergency, return immediately!”
