After Jun Wu Xiao and Yue Guang agreed not to fight each other, perhaps for a long ti, their lives at the Kunlun Mountains returned to their usual trajectory, which was to cultivate day by day.
Since Jun Wu Xiao’s breakthrough to a new realm, he did not know how long it would take for him to break through again.
Although he did not know how long it would take to break through again, he was not discouraged. At least at the present mont, his chances of success were higher than when he had first started.
When he began his path of cultivation, he did not know when he would succeed. Right from the start, he was prepared to pay the price by trying his whole life without necessarily achieving any result.
Ti passed quickly, and now the three of them had secluded themselves to cultivate for another eight years.
During this ti, nothing special happened in the Kunlun Mountains. This was not unusual since the place was hard to reach, and the Kunlun Mountains were vast, so the chances of soone finding their dwelling were very low.
Today was quite special, once again Jun Wu Xiao felt a familiar sensation. It was the feeling of a breakthrough, this ti he had spent nearly nineteen years in cultivation.
"Ha ha ha, finally, a breakthrough. I had guessed that it would take longer than before, but I did not expect it to take eight years more." Jun Wu Xiao laughed.
Then he quickly concentrated his mind to check how his body had changed.
A mont later, he slowly opened his eyes, his expression not too surprised as he had anticipated this. He said:
"It seems similar to the ti I broke through the body refinent realm. When breaking through the minor realms, the enhancent has reduced from threefold to one-third."
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility:
"Hold on, if it’s similar to this, then could it be possible that if I break through three more tis, I would reach a new realm? No, no, it’s too early to conclude. After all, this is the first ti I’ve encountered these things, so there’s no need to rush to conclusions. I wonder if Chu Wu has made a breakthrough yet?"
Suddenly rembering Chu Wu, he looked towards the distance, in the direction leading to the capital. He said:
"With that guy’s condition, I don’t think he’ll die of old age. But if he’s unlucky enough to be killed by soone, then there’s nothing I can do about it. I hope he’s still alive, I don’t have many friends, losing one would really be a bumr."
"Or perhaps now is the ti I should et him? But Dao San Qian is also close to a breakthrough, so waiting another three years is not too late since if Chu Wu has made a breakthrough, his lifespan would still be long." he continued.
Then, he continued to seclude himself in cultivation until Dao San Qian reached a new realm.
True to his expectations, within less than three years, Dao San Qian successfully broke through. At that ti, Jun Wu Xiao went to Dao San Qian and said:
"Congratulations on reaching the peak stage of the body refinent realm."
Dao San Qian just smiled, not feeling overly proud of this breakthrough. After all, the distance between him and both Jun Wu Xiao and Yue Guang was still vast. He said:
"You coming to find surely isn’t just to congratulate . What do you want to invite to do?"
Jun Wu Xiao saw that he had seen through his intention, so he smiled and said:
"I want to invite you to et Chu Wu. After all, it’s been more than forty years since we last t. I also want to see whether he has made a breakthrough or has passed away."
Hearing about Chu Wu, Dao San Qian also felt a bit anxious. After all, the last ti they t, Chu Wu was already over sixty years old. If he hadn’t made a breakthrough, there was a high chance he could have died of old age. He said:
"Alright, I’ve been continuously cultivating for over forty years now. Taking a break to go out wouldn’t be a problem. Plus, it’s a good opportunity to look for so new items to use, as using the old ones over and over again has beco quite boring."
"Good, then you prepare to leave. I’ll go call Yue Guang and then we can all go together." Jun Wu Xiao said and then left.
He was now looking for where Yue Guang was cultivating, which didn’t take too much ti as they usually didn’t go too far from each other.
Yue Guang, seeing Jun Wu Xiao’s approach, was also a bit curious. Normally, they would just focus on their cultivation and not et each other. Each eting surely ant there was sothing to do. She asked:
"Are you looking for to invite to do sothing?"
Jun Wu Xiao nodded, as it was normal for them, who had known each other for so long, to understand each other well. He said:
"Do you want to go et Chu Wu? We promised to et him again and now it’s been over forty years. I think it’s about ti we went to see him."
Yue Guang rembered that they had indeed promised to co back to see him. Just cultivating for a long ti, there are many things that may not be noticed, but for her, forty years is just a short period of ti so she doesn’t pay much attention because she believes that Chu Wu will also beco cultivators like them.
"Alright, then let’s go. It’s been a long ti since I’ve been out for fun, and a little amusent this ti wouldn’t hurt. Wait for to bathe and change, and you should take a bath and change your clothes too. Don’t be like last ti, making outsiders think there’s a shaless beggar following a young lady around." Yue Guang teased with a playful tone.
Jun Wu Xiao’s face darkened, and he huffed lightly:
"Hmph, can’t you forget about that? It’s been over forty years, and you still bring that up. I don’t look like a beggar anymore."
Indeed, he now took a bit more care of his appearance. Although not excessively, he could pass for an ordinary person. Though his face still looked quite youthful, his hair had turned silver-white.
Yue Guang had undergone similar changes, too. Even though her face had rejuvenated quite a bit after her breakthrough, her hair had not returned to the black of her youth. But it didn’t really matter, as she was still very beautiful, just a little old.
After a while, the three of them had finished preparing, and they now stood at the entrance of their cave. Jun Wu Xiao said:
"Everyone’s ready, so let’s set out now. Oh, and rember to wear masks while we run, but you can take them off once we reach the capital."
"Everyone’s ready, so let’s set out now. Oh, and rember to wear masks while we go. Our existence can be revealed, but it’s best not to show our faces because when we cultivate in seclusion we don’t wear masks. If soone finds out, it will be troubleso."
Their speed was fast, but not beyond human observation. Without masks, they could easily be recognized.
"I know, I’m still in the mood for secluded cultivation. I also don’t want to have a high reputation because it’s not necessary." Yue Guang replied, putting on her mask.
Dao San Qian did the sa, noticing that Jun Wu Xiao was leaving empty-handed so he asked:
"Are you sure it’s alright to go without a map?"
"Just trust , I don’t think the capital has moved after over forty years. After all, this kingdom is very large. I still rember the way, and I think you do too." Jun Wu Xiao replied.
Dao San Qian and Yue Guang nodded, indeed they still rembered the route. Given their current mory capabilities, it was not easy for them to forget.
"Good, then let’s go." Jun Wu Xiao said, and then the three of them dashed off together.
