Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 480: Chapter 423: A Path Ahead

”The matter of the Bitter Lotus Sect has been resolved. Han Yu didn’t die, only one person was injured!”

Quan Xiaotong, keeping a close watch from the Inspectorate on the Bitter Lotus Sect, received a secret report from Ling Wuce.

Yet, what surprised him greatly was that despite Han Yu clearly being in trouble, it was Elder Luo from Nanli Sword Studio who was severely injured.

It wasn’t until he reviewed the entire series of events that he wore a peculiar look and secretly chuckled; this was truly a disaster from nowhere.

There’s no place to complain, and the other old men clearly intended to save him.

As for whether the move was too heavy, that’s hard to say.

Quan Xiaotong speculated that during the rescue, some individuals involved might have had a bit of personal emotion mixed in.

Gao Feng, seeing Quan Xiaotong’s smiling face, somewhat guessed the situation.

”Has that kid come back to life again, lively and jumping around?”

”Yes! Lively and jumping around.”

Quan Xiaotong laughed and pushed the letter toward a white snake. Gao Feng leaned over, extending its long neck to read.

Shortly, the white snake spiraled up, standing like a person, swaying its body as if pacing.

”Has he grown stronger again?”

According to various intelligence from the Inspectorate, Han Yu had already been highly praised for his strength when he single-handedly challenged Celestial City Peak.

After several events following that, Han Yu’s profile was thrown into the top tier group of the Celestial Pavilion because, firstly, his strength had already touched the pinnacle of the Cultivator Realm, qualified to be placed there.

Secondly, Han Yu had too many secrets, and with the deepening cooperation with the Fifth Tower, Quan Xiaotong didn’t want any information regarding Han Yu or their cooperation with the Fifth Tower to be further leaked out from here.

And the top-tier of the Celestial Pavilion, only he could access due to the highest authority.

”Originally, I thought the Realm of Transcendence was the pinnacle until the emergence of Soul Splitters broke that perception.”

Quan Xiaotong said solemnly; initially learning of the existence of Soul Splitters left him in a nearly powerless state. How could anyone compete against such a strong force?

Although the existence of Daoists can counter Soul Splitters, it doesn’t let Quan Xiaotong rest easy.

After all, both sides are elusive and secretive, so he doesn’t dare to trust anyone.

”What do you think of Han Yu?”

Quan Xiaotong suddenly asked.

”Very strong!”

Gao Feng hissed before speaking.

”I mean, not his strength; what kind of person do you think he is?”

Quan Xiaotong shook his head, rephrasing the question.

The white snake was taken aback, not expecting this kind of question from Quan Xiaotong.

Does what kind of person he is matter?

No, it mattered to Quan Xiaotong.

He noticed the cautious expression on the other’s face, so after pondering for a moment, he replied.

”Remember I gave him a waist badge? I once thought about absorbing him into the Inspectorate, but...”

Han Yu was too prone to trouble, too unpredictable. Dropping such a troublemaker into the Inspectorate would likely bring chaos.

The events that followed confirmed his decision was undeniably correct, just look at those mansions, Celestial Secret Tower, Nanli Sword Studio, and now Bitter Lotus Sect.

”But besides being quite troublesome, I rather like his plain nature. Haven’t you noticed this guy has little awareness of his own strength?”

Or maybe he has, but never behaves like a typical strongman.

No top cultivator would roam around daily, coaxing people into buying pills.

”For any cultivator reaching his level, it’s either life and death at their command or arrogance. At most, those with higher quality might hold back a bit.”

And Han Yu truly doesn’t exhibit the demeanor of a top-level cultivator; he lives more down-to-earth, thus Gao Feng thought to recruit him into the Inspectorate.

”Why do you ask this?”

The white snake Gao Feng swayed its head and looked over curiously.

Quan Xiaotong smiled subtly and softly spoke, ”Do you think I should bet on him?”

”How would you bet?”

Gao Feng asked, perplexed, as if thinking the Fifth Tower had nothing worth betting on.

”Naturally, I’ll push him directly when he needs it.”

There’s no treasure in the Fifth Tower, but I have one, Quan Xiaotong said with profound wisdom.

”You want him to deal with Soul Splitters?”

Gao Feng wasn’t foolish, he naturally guessed a hint of intention.

Quan Xiaotong didn’t deny; currently, inland... Central Continent has almost no one capable of dealing with Soul Splitters; Han Yu is the only potential candidate.

It’s still a cooperation, Quan Xiaotong had a premonition that Han Yu was destined to clash with them, possibly fighting it out endlessly.

He believes in fate; starting from the Zuyou Sect, it was Han Yu who continuously unearthed them, they were decimated by him, Soul Splitters were lured out by him, and naturally, it won’t stop there—more excitement is sure to come.

He eagerly conveyed to Gao Feng, ”I wonder how strong Han Yu is now?”

In Ling Wuce’s report, it wasn’t mentioned...

...

”How strong are you now?”

This is the second day after Han Yu was struck by thunder. He rolled around for half a day to completely absorb the lightning in his body.

Elder Luo, suffering an undue disaster, stood pale beside him, alongside numerous embarrassed elders from the Nine Sects as well as Mo Xiuwen and Ou Mingdong and others.

Yesterday, not knowing who struck so heavily, sent him flying down the mountain, barely avoiding severe injury.

He was the one asking the question, for the residual waves of Tribulation Thunder had already left him in such an awkward state; he couldn’t help but be curious about to what extent Han Yu, who bore the full brunt of the Tribulation Thunder, had grown stronger.

After enduring such hardship, the gains for Han Yu were undoubtedly immense.

But Elder Luo’s words left him struggling to answer—how strong? He didn’t know either.

The changes in his body gave him an especially bizarre sensation; apart from an endless supply of power, he inexplicably felt a delusion of being able to shatter everything.

That should mean he’s very strong.

After all, his body has always been honest.

”How about showing a bit?”

The Great Elder of Unparalleled Tower suggested eagerly, and after he spoke up, everyone responded; indeed, they were curious too, to what extent Han Yu had reached.

Han Yu did want to try, feeling a peculiar itch within; if he wasn’t strong enough, wouldn’t it be letting his thunder-struck head down?

Fight them?

The group shook their heads like rattles; even before breaking through, Han Yu could suppress them in combat.

Now, who dares to try; the inability to hold back might actually lead to fatalities.

Han Yu glanced around and finally laid his eyes on the neighboring peak.

With a sudden lift of his right hand, the veins bulged like dragons, and a powerful aura caused everyone’s faces to suddenly change.

”Is it Tribulation Thunder!”

The old monk from Galan Temple showed shock, retreating alongside the group.

”No, it’s the aura of destruction.”

Ling Wuce, being more observant, shook his head quickly after watching from afar.

Because the power of the punch was so immense, it gave the feeling of a destructive aura akin to Tribulation Thunder.

”Ha!”

With a resonance from Han Yu’s chest, his right fist erupted forward, aimed at the distant peak a mile away.

Pong!

The massive momentum surged, almost flipping everyone over, and shortly took the strong wind towards the peak a mile away.

Boom!

The effect was as if Tribulation Thunder descended, directly halving the entire mountain, and the enormous winds stripped and tossed all the trees out of the mountain.

With just a punch through empty space, half the mountain was destroyed, leaving it bald.

”Cultivation Technique?”

Their faces turned pale, although they could barely manage such an act, they definitely couldn’t do it so effortlessly.

”No, Turtle Fist, just pure physical power.”

Han Yu shook his head with a grin, clearly satisfied; this wasn’t even his full-out state—indeed, his struggles weren’t in vain.

”Next time I encounter Soul Splitters, watch me beat them until they cry out.”

He was filled with confidence.

And hearing his declaration, the group, apart from having strange expressions, internally cursed him as abnormal.

If this was the strength of just his physical state, then wouldn’t such attacks could presumably continue without end?

The human-shaped disaster!

At Han Yu’s level, his every move carried immense power.

”So, is this the new world beyond transcendence?”

The Great Elder of Piaomiao Sect was already filled with immense yearning; Han Yu’s success meant a path lay ahead for them too!
