Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

Ten days later, Wen Qingye had arrived at the Celestial Profound Villa.

By absorbing the Primordial Qi Essence within the Profound Pearl daily, Wen Qingye’s cultivation soared. In the blink of an eye, he had once again reached the peak of the Refining Spirit Tenth Layer.

Wen Qingye was only able to absorb the energy from this Profound Pearl with such abandon because of the solid foundation he had laid in the past.

The end of the month was fast approaching. To earn a large amount of Sect Contribution Points, Wen Qingye had to advance again in this short time and challenge higher-ranked individuals.

At this thought, a flicker of resolve flashed through Wen Qingye’s clear eyes.

The Profound Pearl in front of him suddenly erupted with an astonishing light, illuminating the entire room. The radiant glow scattered, shimmering brilliantly.

The Profound Pearl began to spin rapidly as streams of incomparably pure Primordial Qi seeped out, pouring endlessly into Wen Qingye’s body as he cultivated.

As this pure Primordial Qi drained away, the once resplendent Profound Pearl began to dim rapidly. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Wen Qingye completely absorbed the vast Primordial Qi within, turning it into an ordinary stone.

As he absorbed the Profound Pearl’s Primordial Qi, a powerful suction erupted from Wen Qingye’s body, forcibly drawing the vast ambient Primordial Qi into him as well. This ambient Qi was clearly far more impure than the energy from the Profound Pearl, but its advantage was that the supply was endless and inexhaustible.

Thus, with the two sources combined, a vigorous stream of Primordial Qi surged into his body, tirelessly filling what felt like a bottomless pit.

The area around him was momentarily sucked into a vacuum, but in the next instant, ambient Primordial Qi rushed in to fill the void.

Although Wen Qingye’s absorption speed was incredibly fast, the amount of Primordial Qi required to advance to the Yin-Yang Realm was simply immense. Others had to accumulate energy over long periods for such a breakthrough, so the amount Wen Qingye needed was naturally colossal.

As time went on, the rate at which Wen Qingye absorbed Primordial Qi began to slow. The flow of Primordial Qi from the Profound Pearl was weakening, and even the surge of ambient Qi had slackened considerably.

’If one isn’t enough, I’ll use two!’

Wen Qingye flipped his palm, and another Profound Pearl shot into the air, emitting a dazzlingly intense light.

Instantly, a massive amount of Primordial Qi rushed into Wen Qingye’s body once more. A dense, almost tangible mist swirled around him—this was all Primordial Qi.

This new Profound Pearl provided another massive infusion of Primordial Qi, which was a godsend for Wen Qingye. The pure Primordial Qi, once again surging madly through his every pore, finally dispelled the flagging momentum of his breakthrough. With a command from his Heart Spirit, the pure Primordial Qi flowed through his meridians like a gurgling spring, ultimately pouring into his Qi Sea.

Wen Qingye felt a stinging pain inside his body, but after enduring the agony of cultivating the Five Elements Body Refining Technique, such minor pain couldn’t possibly distract him.

HUMMM!

His Qi Sea continuously transformed, then split into two. One side turned black and the other white, echoing the infinite Great Dao of life’s origin.

CRACK! CRACK!

Meanwhile, Wen Qingye’s body grew more condensed and substantial as the crisp cracking of his bones resounded without end.

A vast, majestic aura slowly condensed, filling every corner of the room without dispersing. Wen Qingye’s eyes snapped open, a sharp glint bursting forth as if it were a tangible thing.

The Yin-Yang Realm!

His immense presence didn’t stop there; it continued to climb until it reached the peak of the Yin Yang Realm First Layer Heaven!

........

At noon, Wen Qingye walked toward B Hall.

The area was abuzz with voices, even more lively than the last time Wen Qingye had visited.

A quick glance revealed that everyone was glowing with health, their Essence, Qi, and Spirit brimming. This was the wondrous effect of cultivating the Celestial Profound Technique. At this moment, the geniuses from various nations who had just begun practicing it were seeing their cultivation increase by leaps and bounds.

”Brother Wang, I heard you found a Basic-Level King Grade Wind Pearl in the Jade Sea Tide-Birth Gorge. Is that true?”

”Of course it’s true. I was on my way to the Cloud Country to eliminate some Evil Cult monsters when I passed through the Jade Sea Tide-Birth Gorge. It happened to be the time when the wind fish spit out their pearls. Hehe... I just got lucky.”

”Have any of you ever been to the Northwest Mo Business Sea Country? You have to go see it. I didn’t get to see the Eternal Night Riverbank, one of the four great wonders of our Eastern Profound Domain, but I did see a spectacle at the Nocturnal Strait. It was absolutely magnificent!”

”It’s a shame. Who knows how long it’ll take for me to save up enough Sect Contribution Points to exchange for a Mid-Level King Grade martial arts manual.”

”Oh, right, I heard that Yu from the Dayan Dynasty is going to challenge a Core Disciple from Absolute Peak in two months. That’ll be the first time a Registered Disciple has ever challenged a Core Disciple!”

......

Wen Qingye casually found a seat and sat down.

”I haven’t seen you in a long time.”

Wen Qingye had just sat down when a familiar voice sounded beside him. Cheng Yu and Yann Xiangyang, both dressed in grey robes, slowly approached. For some reason, Wen Qingye felt they had both lost a lot of weight.

The two of them slowly sat down. There was something strange in the way Yann Xiangyang looked at Wen Qingye; she seemed to be avoiding his gaze. When she noticed him looking at her, she smiled subconsciously.

Cheng Yu seemed to notice the confusion in Wen Qingye’s eyes and said, ”We’re on rotation today. Even servant disciples need to rest.”

Wen Qingye nodded. He understood a bit about the lives of servant disciples. Working in the dining hall was considered a relatively easy job. But when Purple Bamboo was needed, the servant disciples sent to harvest it had a truly bitter task.

Of course, there were other tasks that weren’t necessarily any easier than harvesting Purple Bamboo. In short, being a servant disciple in the Celestial Profound Sect was exhausting.

Wen Qingye had extremely sharp eyes and noticed the calluses on both of their palms at a glance.

Cheng Yu’s expression dimmed as a thought occurred to her. ”I heard Chuxue became a Core Disciple and joined Purple Bamboo Peak. I wonder how far Purple Bamboo Peak is from here.”

Wen Qingye was surprised. He hadn’t expected Yann Chuxue to actually become a Core Disciple.

”I have some Primordial Stones here. You two take them,” Wen Qingye said, taking out a bag of Top-grade Primordial Stones and handing it to Cheng Yu.

These were Primordial Stones he had casually dug up in the Four-Eyebrow Mountain Mine Cave.

Yann Xiangyang shook her head. ”We can’t do that. Aren’t you the one who needs Primordial Stones the most?”

Cheng Yu nodded, but just as she was about to refuse, her expression suddenly changed.

”The people from the Luocheng Ancient Country are here.”

Wen Qingye turned his head to see a group walking slowly toward them from a short distance away. It was composed of more than a dozen disciples in white robes, flanked by several servant disciples in grey. Wen Qingye recognized one of the white-robed disciples—it was none other than Li Zhouyu.

”Senior Brother Li, they’re right here,” a servant disciple said, pointing at Cheng Yu.

Li Zhouyu nodded and gestured for the disciple to step back. His eyes fell on Wen Qingye with a cold glint. ”Brat, you’re good at laying low. I’ve been looking for you for over half a month, and you’re only showing your face now?”

”You were looking for me?” Wen Qingye stood up, his gaze sweeping over the people behind Li Zhouyu.

They all appeared to be from the Luocheng Ancient Country, and their cultivation levels were all exceptionally high. In particular, a man and a woman among them were around the Yin Yang Realm Third Layer.

The man’s eyes were tightly shut, as if he were deep in sleep.

Li Zhouyu licked his lips, but his eyes were fixed on Cheng Yu and Yann Xiangyang. ”These two women are quite loyal to you. I had them assigned to Jia Wuzong to guard the Yin Spirits, and to my surprise, neither of them revealed your whereabouts.”

Hearing Li Zhouyu’s words, both Yann Xiangyang and Cheng Yu trembled, and their faces turned deathly pale.

”What? Those two girls actually guarded Jia Wuzong?”

”The people from the Luocheng Ancient Country are truly vicious.”

”Jia Wuzong? Could an ordinary person even stand a place like that? The Yin Qi is overwhelming there.”

Hearing Li Zhouyu’s words, the surrounding crowd couldn’t help but break into discussion.
