Senior Brother Lin Xiaoyun is from the Crown Prince Hall!
Upon hearing Chen Lingyu’s words, Luo Cheng couldn’t help but pause in surprise.
This was the first ti he had heard of this.
No wonder the other party didn’t show up.
He had a deep-seated enmity with the Crown Prince Hall and was soon to face Yan Qi in a fight to the death.
Luo Cheng himself didn’t know how he would confront this Senior Brother if they t face to face.
Elder Chen Xuan lightly cleared his throat and said,
"Your Senior Brother is a good person. You’ll understand when you et him in the future."
As he spoke, Elder Chen Xuan flicked his finger.
Swish!
A streak of spiritual light shot toward Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng reached out to catch it—it was a One-star Storage Spirit Ring.
Elder Chen Xuan said, "This is the storage ring I promised you. Additionally, your recent feats in bringing honor to our Xuanyuan Sect have made proud. I’m also gifting you one thousand Essence Energy Pills."
Chen Xuan then retrieved a wooden box, and with a wave of his hand, the box landed stably in front of Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng’s eyes lit up.
The Storage Spirit Ring was extrely rare; a One-star Storage Spirit Ring was worth millions of taels.
And with the addition of one thousand Essence Energy Pills, this was a considerable fortune.
"Thank you, Master!"
Luo Cheng had long since accepted Elder Chen Xuan wholeheartedly as his master.
The wealth was secondary; since joining the Xuanyuan Sect, Elder Chen Xuan was one of the few people who didn’t harbor prejudice against him.
Luo Cheng imdiately put on the Storage Spirit Ring. With just a thought, he stored the wooden box inside it.
Seeing this, Elder Chen Xuan and Chen Lingyu were both sowhat surprised.
A martial artist at the Half-step Tongxuan Realm could only refine pseudo-essence energy and didn’t have the ability to activate a Storage Spirit Ring.
Only by refining essence energy to its peak, nearing a breakthrough to the Tongxuan Realm, where pseudo-energy is transford into true essence energy, could one activate a storage ring.
Elder Chen Xuan sized up Luo Cheng and remarked,
"It seems you’re not far from reaching the Tongxuan Realm."
"However, let remind you, since you’ve cultivated to the Golden Body Realm and established a foundation for Supre Martial Arts, your physique is exceedingly strong and formidable. Advancing to the Tongxuan Realm will be harder for you compared to others. You’ll need a vast amount of essence energy to break through the bottleneck."
"When you attempt to break through, you should prepare plenty of spiritual dicine and spirit pills."
Luo Cheng furrowed his brow and asked, "Master, how much will I need to prepare?"
Elder Chen Xuan shook his head with a wry smile. "The Great Yue Dynasty has not seen anyone successfully reach the Golden Body Realm in a hundred years. I’m not entirely certain about the specifics."
"However, as the Golden Body Realm’s physique is incredibly dominant and is several tis stronger than other martial artists of the sa level, the resource consumption is likely severalfold as well. At the very least, it may require several thousand Essence Energy Pills."
Luo Cheng nodded, but his heart inevitably stirred with concerns.
His physique was not rely comparable to Tongxuan Realm martial artists.
With the True Dragon Technique having reached the Seventh Level, his strength exceeded 200,000 pounds!
In terms of raw physical power alone, even a martial artist at Tongxuan Realm First Layer Peak couldn’t match him.
With this in mind, several thousand Essence Energy Pills might still fall short.
Elder Chen Xuan added, "You have only half a month left before your duel with Yan Qi. Are you confident? If not, I can intervene on your behalf. With my position, Yan Qi likely wouldn’t dare trouble you."
Luo Cheng shook his head without hesitation: "This duel is inevitable; I wouldn’t trouble you, Master."
Chen Lingyu furrowed her brows in persuasion: "Junior Brother, Master is doing this for your sake. That Yan Qi is a Tongxuan Realm First Layer Peak martial artist, his strength is no small matter, and he’s from the Crown Prince Hall. Sotis patience and restraint bring peace—don’t let impulsiveness get the better of you."
"Within half a month, I will ascend to the Tongxuan Realm!"
Luo Cheng shook his head again, silently thinking this senior sister was too naïve.
Many tis, patience doesn’t bring peace!
Others would simply perceive weakness and pile on the ridicule!
A sharp blow to expose the truth, rather than letting chaos fester, was Luo Cheng’s preferred thod.
Elder Chen Xuan had already seen through Luo Cheng’s temperant and remarked,
"If that’s the case, I won’t intervene. As long as you succeed in your Tongxuan Realm breakthrough, victory in this battle may not be out of reach."
"However, you only have half a month left, so prepare carefully. Otherwise, failing the breakthrough won’t just cost you ti and energy; you might even face backlash."
"Also, starting today, you will reside on Qingxuan Peak. I’ve arranged a residence for you there, and your Senior Sister Lingyu will accompany you shortly."
When he heard this, Luo Cheng’s eyes glead with excitent.
This had been his goal during his visit.
Cuiliu Peak was overcrowded, and the Heaven and Earth Essence Energy couldn’t compare to Qingxuan Peak.
Since he now qualified to move to Qingxuan Peak, why not seize the opportunity?
"Thank you, Master!"
After chatting briefly about Sun Yingyang, Luo Cheng and Chen Lingyu stood up and left the practice hall.
On the mountain path.
Chen Lingyu blinked and asked curiously, "Junior Brother, did you truly awaken an unford Martial Soul?"
Luo Cheng didn’t say a word and simply released his Martial Soul.
"Huh, it doesn’t even have One-star..."
Chen Lingyu examined the Martial Soul and looked surprised. Clicking her tongue, she remarked, "When Master told about this, I didn’t believe it."
"You’re truly remarkable—awakening an unford Martial Soul, yet winning first place in the Green Cloud Trial, provoking the Crown Prince Hall, cultivating to the Golden Body Realm, and slaying Tongxuan Realm martial artists despite being only at the Transcendence Realm... You’ve created quite a stir."
Luo Cheng chuckled, "Senior Sister, are you praising or criticizing ?"
Chen Lingyu laughed lodiously, radiant as ever: "Of course I’m praising you! Master said that if you’d awakened a standard Martial Soul, you’d be an exceptional genius!"
"Since you awakened an unford Martial Soul, let’s downgrade ’exceptional’—you can reluctantly be called a genius instead."
Reluctantly called a genius...
Luo Cheng laughed helplessly.
At that mont, Chen Lingyu seed to recall sothing. She grazed her storage ring and pulled out a porcelain vial, apologetically saying:
"I nearly forgot about this. This was entrusted to by Senior Brother Lin Xiaoyun to give to you. It’s a Bright Essence Pill, which can increase your chances of breaking through to the Tongxuan Realm!"
Luo Cheng glanced at the porcelain vial and shook his head:
"Don’t accept kindness without earning it."
He accepted spirit pills from Chen Lingyu since he acknowledged her as his Senior Sister.
However, as for Lin Xiaoyun, whom he had never t and who belonged to the Crown Prince Hall, rashly accepting such a precious gift would only make others think him cowardly.
Even if he lacked spirit pills now, Luo Cheng wouldn’t compromise his dignity for them.
"Junior Brother... Fine, you’re certainly stubborn. I’ll let him give it to you in person soday!"
Chen Lingyu saw Luo Cheng’s determination and reluctantly put the pill away.
Soon, the two arrived in front of a luxurious estate.
The estate was nad "Xuan Yi Residence," situated on the eastern hillside of Qingxuan Peak. It spanned a vast area, featuring a main courtyard and three smaller ones.
Inside the main courtyard were pavilions, towers, and a shimring lake surrounded by ancient willows, all exuding an elegant, tranquil aura.
Beside the lake was the practice field, paved entirely with exceptionally sturdy Black Iron Stone. It covered an area ten square ters in diater, several tis larger than the small courtyard Luo Cheng had stayed in before!
On the edge of the practice field stood four tallic training posts, each representing the extre defensive capacities of Tongxuan Realm First to Third Layer martial artists.
The fourth training post had a defensive power equivalent to that of Awakening Vein Realm martial artists!
Walking ahead, Chen Lingyu introduced everything one by one:
"Junior Brother, from now on, you’ll live here in Xuan Yi Residence. When you enter the practice field, an array will automatically activate, not only gathering essence energy but also preventing interruptions from others."
Luo Cheng found it hard to believe, "The entire Xuan Yi Residence belongs to alone?"
Chen Lingyu noticed his thoughts and smiled brightly:
"Of course. You’re Master’s direct disciple, holding extraordinary status within the Outer Sect. However, this is just the beginning. Once your cultivation breaks through to the Awakening Vein Realm and you beco an Inner Sect disciple, your treatnt will improve by several tis over. True disciples even have entire mountains all to themselves."
Luo Cheng sighed deeply as he gazed at the surrounding scenery.
Indeed, strength is everything!
The difference in treatnt is worlds apart.
After admiring the view, Luo Cheng decided to move in imdiately and prepare to break through to the Tongxuan Realm!
Chen Lingyu, who disliked solitude and was thrilled to now have a Junior Brother, clamored to help Luo Cheng move his belongings.
The two headed toward Cuiliu Peak together.
"Luo Cheng!"
Just as they reached the base of Cuiliu Peak, a tall figure rushed toward them.
It was Yuan Zhilan.
Yuan Zhilan looked pale, her expression filled with worry.
Luo Cheng frowned and asked, "Yuan Zhilan, what happened?"
Yuan Zhilan took a deep breath, her voice urgent:
"Gu Lingfeng is in trouble!"
