"As long as you know it, don’t act like that brainless fool in the future. He is in Body Cultivation, and you are not," Lou Yushan advised:
"This ti, Chen Yi has just arrived at Taizhou Mountain and appeared near the garrison we are defending, which is a good thing. When he exits seclusion, give him a small gift on my behalf."
"I understand," Lou Yuchun pondered, "But what would be appropriate? With his current cultivation and skills, ordinary items might not catch his eye."
"That is true... How about gifting him that Magic Treasure?" Lou Yushan proposed, "After all, he’s new to Taizhou Mountain and needs to understand this place. That Magic Treasure contains so records about the different Realms within Taizhou Mountain, which might pique his interest."
"Brother, you an... But what if he later blas us for any harm?"
"If he suffers, that’s his problem, not ours."
"Okay, I’ll deliver it to him later. Also, brother, there is another matter I need to discuss with you."
Saying this, Lou Yuchun revealed the matter of the Netherworld River connecting to the Tianyuan Continent, and finally said:
"I haven’t had the ti to report this to the elders yet..."
Lou Yushan interrupted, "Such an important matter isn’t sothing you, Chen Yi, or I can decide alone. Besides, with the three Scouts who returned with Chen Yi, do you think this can be kept a secret for long?"
"..." Hearing his admonition, Lou Yuchun smiled bitterly, "That was my original plan, but I’ve been worried..."
On the other side of the copper mirror, seeing his expression, Lou Yushan’s tone softened a bit and said:
"Brother, I know what you’re worried about, and I have my concerns too."
"In recent years, for so unknown reason, several of our Human Race’s garrisons have been repeatedly attacked by the Demon Court, even the strong cities with elders stationed have been at a disadvantage."
"It’s suspected that this is the work of spies from the Demon Court, but I suspect it’s likely soone high up within our Human Race colluding with the Demon Court. Otherwise, those demons wouldn’t know our garrisons and bases so well."
Upon hearing this, Lou Yuchun’s face darkened further, and he nodded, "What you said is indeed what I’m worried about. If the Demon Court learns about the Netherworld River, even with harsh passage conditions, there is a certain risk."
"You must know that the East Sea Coast is not within the Wei Dynasty’s borders, and our defenses there are the weakest."
"Once soone in the shadows conveys this information to the Demon Court, I’m afraid our rear defenses will beco the front line."
Lou Yushan said firmly, "Therefore, we must inform the elders as soon as possible so that they are prepared in advance. Even if there’s collusion with the Demon Court, we can be ready."
"Brother, you must understand that we have to hold this place for a hundred years, and there’s no room for carelessness."
Lou Yuchun nodded, "I know what to do now, I’ll imdiately send a secret ssage to the elders."
"Go quickly!"
anwhile, every person in White Emperor City and even those in the nearby garrisons noticed the commotion in the city, with so cheering, so sighing, but most were filled with envy.
anwhile, in the military camp on the eastern side of White Emperor City.
Gu Zhuo, Ji Binglan, and Yin Shunan had just finished writing their report and handing it in and then learned that Chen Yi was breaking through to the Heavenly Human Realm, leaving them sowhat speechless.
"Wasn’t that senior’s cultivation only at the Void Extre Realm? Earlier, when he slew that Void Extre Realm Demon King with one sword, I thought he was already an elder at the upper tier of the Heavenly Realm."
"Maybe his Sword Dao Realm is more extraordinary," Yin Shunan pondered and remarked, "I even suspect he might be a Great Power of the Divine Power Realm."
"I have the sa suspicion," Gu Zhuo nodded, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, "But the higher the senior’s cultivation, the better, after all, we..."
He didn’t continue, but the other two understood what he ant.
However, Ji Binglan suddenly fell silent, smiled with them for a while, then asked, "When do you both plan to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm, brothers?"
The laughter ceased imdiately.
Gu Zhuo and Yin Shunan exchanged a glance and cautiously asked, "Little sister, why do you ask? Brother Yin and I are currently only at the Second Grade Divine Travel Realm, and a breakthrough is still far off, at least ten years away."
"Then will it take even longer for ...?’
Ji Binglan’s face pouted instantly, and she sulkily turned to leave.
"Hey? Little sister?"
"What’s wrong with her?"
"I think she’s lovesick..."
...
Four hours later.
As dusk fell, Chen Yi finally reined in his imposing aura, opened his eyes, and two crystalline lights flashed, illuminating the dim carriage.
He surveyed his surroundings, seeing not only the scenery but also reflecting the talismanic seals hidden within, or anything imbued with spiritual energy.
At the sa ti, he could perceive the formless and odorless nature’s spiritual energy—so faintly shining dark, others like red flas, mixing like the elental essences that ford this world.
But only for a mont, Chen Yi withdrew from that state, and his eyes reflected tangible objects again.
"So this is the Heavenly Human Realm."
Chen Yi realized in his heart that ascending to the Heavenly realm is the first step from mundane to immortal.
Upon reaching this realm, his body was thoroughly rged with the heavens, able to house a portion of the celestial might within himself, just like a small link at the end of an iron chain.
Simultaneously, he perceived the flow of elental energies as effortlessly as a limb, as if a gentle breath could draw on those energies to form an impressive force to harm foes.
This feeling was much like when he previously integrated the White Tiger Divine Intent, seeing the myriad things not as they appeared but as an illusionary aura.
