With the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique, Luo Cheng’s speed skyrocketed.
In just one day, he had left the Running Horse Plain.
During this ti, Luo Cheng finally understood why the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique, despite being such a formidable secret technique, was only rated as a Five-star Top Grade!
The fundantal reason lies in its excessive consumption of Essence Energy, making it a heavy burden.
Each ti Luo Cheng cast it, it consud nearly one-tenth of the Essence Energy in a single Essence Energy Mansion!
For an ordinary Awakening Vein Realm cultivator, their total Essence Energy wouldn’t even allow them to sustain ten casts.
As such, the practicality of the Mysterious Wind Explosion Technique was significantly reduced.
In a single battle, being able to use it two or three tis would already be considered impressive!
Such a drawback naturally prevented its grade from being any higher.
However, Luo Cheng had no such concerns.
With nine Essence Energy Mansions within him, he could unleash it recklessly without restraint.
Whoosh!
His Essence Energy erupted continuously, transforming Luo Cheng into a streak of flowing light, darting through the clouds.
Half a day later, Luo Cheng saw a vast forest from afar.
The forest was shrouded in faint black mist that blocked sunlight, leaving it eerily dark—like a sinister black dragon lying dormant upon the earth.
This was none other than the Black Cloud Mountain Range!
"I wonder how the Fierce Cloud Sect is progressing in tracking down the Blood Nether Sect’s stronghold."
Luo Cheng frowned and pondered.
The fact that Sun Yingyang had been bribed revealed the Blood Nether Sect’s machinations. Their influence had even infiltrated the Three Great Sects, and their threat was growing day by day!
Hmm?
Luo Cheng was still contemplating the matter when his gaze shifted, noticing the mountain range below.
Amidst the sinister dense forest, faint silhouettes were flickering.
In addition to that, massive shadows accompanied by chilling beastly roars could be heard.
In a clearing within the forest, four individuals were surrounded by a pack of Demon Beasts.
The beasts resembled fierce tigers, over a zhang in length, with glossy black fur. Black mist spewed from their mouths and noses, while sticky black drool dripped from their serrated fangs to the ground, instantly sizzling nacingly.
They were Grade Three Interdiate Demon Beasts, Black-toothed Tigers!
Among the four young n and won, there were marks of the Golden Ring Sect. Luo Cheng instantly recognized the insignia of the second-rate sect near Qishan City.
One of the spirited young won in the group turned out to be an acquaintance—Qi Family’s young miss, Qi Ting!
He hadn’t seen her in a year, and Qi Ting had grown even prettier.
Though she still couldn’t compare to the won Luo Cheng had encountered, like Luo Yao, Yun ngli, Yan Qingshuang, Chen Lingyu, Ninth Princess Jin Yuxi, Zhu Lingi, and others...
She had blossod into a graceful and attractive lady, with her body perfectly accentuated by a tight-fitting outfit that radiated youthful energy.
Yet at this mont, her previously proud face was pale, sweat beaded on her brow, and her gaze was filled with fear as she stared at the Black-toothed Tigers.
The strength of Black-toothed Tigers was equivalent to Tongxuan Realm Third Layer cultivators at the Middle Stage. Moreover, their demon qi was highly venomous, such that even Peak Third Layer Tongxuan Realm experts would usually choose to avoid them.
Among the four Golden Ring Sect disciples, the highest cultivation level was rely Tongxuan Realm Third Layer at the Middle Stage.
At present, the four were besieged by five Black-toothed Tigers, their situation perilous, faces written with terror.
Roar!
A Black-toothed Tiger let out a furious roar and lunged directly towards the nearest—Qi Ting.
Her face turned as white as paper. Clenching her teeth, she raised her sword in defense.
At that mont.
Swoosh!
A flash of Sword Qi streaked past, and the Black-toothed Tiger leaping through the air froze before being severed mid-flight.
Startled, Qi Ting quickly leapt back.
Monts later.
The remaining Black-toothed Tigers were all sliced apart, their cuts smooth and clean as blood spurted forth.
"The Black Cloud Mountain Range has been dangerous lately. Leave imdiately!"
A clear voice descended from the skies.
"Flying in the sky! Look! It’s an Awakening Vein Realm swordsman!"
"Thank you for saving us, senior!"
The surviving Golden Ring Sect disciples looked up at the fading figure in the distance. Trembling with excitent, they bowed respectfully in gratitude.
"Huh? It’s him!"
Though Luo Cheng had flown away, Qi Ting instantly recognized him. She pursed her red lips, her expression carrying a hint of complexity.
She rembered clearly how a year ago she had gone to great lengths to reject the engagent with Luo Cheng, claiming they were from different worlds.
She hadn’t expected her own words to beco prophetic!
While she was still struggling to break through to the Tongxuan Realm...
Luo Cheng had already ascended to the Awakening Vein Realm, becoming a True Dragon soaring in the heavens!
"Sister Qi Ting, you know this senior?" soone asked in astonishnt.
Qi Ting snapped out of her thoughts, glanced in the direction Luo Cheng had left, and gave a bitter smile while shaking her head:
"How could I possibly know soone like him..."
When Luo Cheng returned to Qishan City, it was already late at night.
Without alerting anyone, he transford into a shadow and headed straight for the Luo Residence.
Roar!
As soon as he reached the skies above the Luo Residence, a low growl suddenly echoed.
Golden light flared as two magnificent beasts, their bodies radiating golden brilliance like lion-tigers, leapt into the air, baring their teeth at Luo Cheng.
Their powerful demon qi unleashed terrifying waves akin to a massive tidal force.
"Golden Lion Beasts!"
Luo Cheng instantly recalled that the family had acquired these two guardians and imdiately halted his movents.
The Golden Lion Beasts were Four-star Top Grade Demon Beasts!
Together, the pair could rival a Four Extres Secret Realm Great Power. He dared not act rashly.
"Who goes there? Hmm, Cheng’er! You’re back!"
A figure shot into the sky—it was Luo Mingshan. He promptly ordered the Golden Lion Beasts to retreat and greeted Luo Cheng with a radiant smile.
Luo Cheng’s eyes lit up. "Grandfather, you’ve reached the Awakening Vein Realm?"
"Haha! That’s right, broke through half a month ago! All thanks to the Five-star Top Grade cultivation technique you gave ! And those elixirs!"
Luo Mingshan laughed boisterously, his face glowing with health and pride.
Reaching the Awakening Vein Realm had been his lifelong dream.
He never thought he might live to see it fulfilled—all thanks to his exceptional grandson, Luo Cheng!
"Congratulations, Grandfather!"
Hearing the commotion, the Luo Family mbers rushed over.
Luo Mingshan smiled, saying, "Let’s head down. I’ll have soone prepare hot water for you so you can rest well!"
Luo Cheng shook his head. "No need. I’ll be leaving early tomorrow. This ti, I’ve returned to discuss sothing with you and Father."
"Oh? Then let’s go to the main hall!"
Luo Mingshan imdiately dismissed the group and led Luo Cheng to the eting hall.
Luo Hong was already waiting in the hall.
Once seated, Luo Mingshan said, "Cheng’er, have you heard of the incident in Wuyan City? The Sun Family of Wuyan City was wiped out by the Blood Nether Sect overnight—no survivors."
"That Sun Family head, Sun Yingyang, was once your father’s friend. Yet he betrayed and ambushed him, leaving your father unable to cultivate... This is karma!"
"Yes, I’ve heard," Luo Cheng replied, nodding. "Grandfather, take a look at these first."
As he spoke, Luo Cheng activated the Lingxiao Jade Token, retrieving various miscellaneous treasures, armor, weapons, elixirs, and secret manuals.
Whoosh!
Instantly, a mountain of items ford in the center of the hall.
Precious gems, jade, spiritual dicines, and other treasures emitted dazzling glows that illuminated the entire hall.
Luo Mingshan and Luo Hong’s eyes were overwheld by the brilliance.
Luo Mingshan casually picked up a secret manual and froze upon opening it:
"Five-star Top Grade Wind Control Palm Technique!"
Luo Hong picked up another manual. "This is also Five-star Martial Arts! Five-star Supre Fist Technique!"
Despite being experienced and seasoned, Luo Mingshan found himself montarily stunned, staring at Luo Cheng in disbelief:
"Cheng’er, did you... empty Xuanyuan Sect’s treasure vault?"
