CHAPTER 128: CHAPTER 128: SPECULATING THE PLANNER, WANYI BREAKS THROUGH

"This is becoming more and more interesting..."

Ye Yun placed his hands behind his back. As his calm eyes gazed at the letter and Jade Tablet in the wooden box, a momentary, almost imperceptible smile flickered across his face.

The other party was extremely careful, even leading all the clues this time to a Heavenly Moon Osmanthus Tree deep within the Secret Realm. The force behind this must be unimaginably large; even a Sky-Level Sect couldn’t achieve this. Only an Eternal Sect could possess such astounding power. The planner was astute, meticulously arranging each step. Every potential clue could be severed, making it impossible for future generations to discern anything.

Having signed in for a hundred thousand years, I am now invincible. It’s just the right time to have some fun with you...

Ye Yun smiled faintly.

The wooden box before him suddenly vanished, stored away by him.

Although he hadn’t obtained any direct clues, acquiring a letter and a Jade Tablet was quite satisfactory for Ye Yun. He enjoyed the feeling of unraveling a mystery. It relieved him of the loneliness he had felt from being unbeatable for the past one hundred thousand years.

Now, he could follow these clues. Accompanied by the three young members of the Dragon God Sect, he would lead them to continuously gain experience and head toward the Heavenly Moon Dynasty. Then, he would see what mysteries truly lay hidden within the Secret Realm.

Space tore open, and Ye Yun stepped through. The next moment, he appeared in the air above the Shen Heng Sect Square.

The battle was still ongoing. Battle cries shook the heavens, swords clashed, and continuous loud booms resounded.

Luo Li, Jun Moxiao, and Su Wanyi, under the siege of tens of thousands, faced unimaginable pressure. This was particularly true since all the Shen Heng Sect disciples had been controlled by Ye Yun using a Secret Technique; they were all attacking with suicidal abandon. One could only imagine the intensity of such pressure.

Only one person in the square wasn’t participating in the battle: Ren Tianxing, the Sect Master of the Shen Heng Sect. He had been controlled by Ye Yun earlier and still couldn’t move.

You should join them too!

A flicker of movement in Ye Yun’s expression, a profound light flashed in his eyes, and Ren Tianxing, still in a daze, also joined the battle.

Watching the battle below, Ye Yun’s gaze flickered as he began to ponder.

The Shen Heng Sect had kept the Dragon God Sect in check for at least ten thousand years. Before that, other sects must have been secretly plotting, making quiet moves against the Dragon God Sect. The true decline of the Dragon God Sect likely occurred tens of thousands of years ago. And the group that orchestrated and executed this shocking plan, after tens of thousands of years, it was believed they had long since vanished from this world. That generation had toppled the Dragon God Sect from its zenith, causing its power to continuously wane. Ultimately, it fell to a ninth-rate sect like the Shen Heng Sect to handle the aftermath.

On the Cangnan Continent, for a sect to ultimately become an Eternal Sect, it naturally had to possess the profound destiny of the continent. These Eternal Sects had deep foundations and were by no means easily toppled. Back then, I was tricked by the System into entering a mystical space to ’sign in.’ No one knows what happened to the Dragon God Sect during the subsequent one hundred thousand years. The Dragon God Sect had endured hardship for tens of thousands of years, and records from that distant past were long lost. To put it bluntly, its main lineage of inheritance had been severed.

Fortunately, successive generations of the Dragon God Sect were exceptionally tenacious. Coupled with the lingering protection from the Eternal Sect’s destiny, they had managed to endure down to Luo Li, the 298th generation. It had truly been an arduous journey.

A hundred thousand years. Oceans can turn into mulberry fields, and people and things change with time. Back when I was active, the Dragon God Sect teemed with Eternal Realm masters. But in Luo Li’s generation, her master only reached the Origin Sea Realm.

Ye Yun was deeply moved by these recollections.

Therefore, I am determined to train these three unfortunate children to become undisputed masters of the Eternal Realm. I aim to increase the concentration of the Ancestral Dragon Bloodline in their bodies to over 90%. This would truly enable a single Eternal Realm expert from their ranks to overwhelm dozens of ordinary Eternal Realm cultivators. In the future, with these three Eternal Realm powerhouses stationed in the Dragon God Sect, they could dominate the entire Cangnan Continent for at least tens of thousands of years. That way, I can leave without any worries.

Time continued to pass slowly. 「In the blink of an eye, five to six Time Units had passed.」

The battle on the square had reached an extremely brutal stage. People kept falling one after another. Only five to six thousand combatants remained on the vast square.

Luo Li, Jun Moxiao, and Su Wanyi were still as vigorous as ever, showing no signs of fatigue.

The three were utterly astounded. We never expected the Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood to make our bodies so powerful! Unbelievably so! After fighting for five to six Time Units, we still don’t feel any fatigue!

On the square now, with the Shen Heng Sect’s numbers drastically reduced, the pressure on the trio lessened considerably, and the forces on both sides reached a tentative equilibrium.

"Senior Sister, I can’t believe we haven’t had a breakthrough yet!" Jun Moxiao said in annoyance after executing a sword strike.

"Yes, perhaps our talent isn’t strong enough. Despite this level of pressure, we still haven’t broken through!" Luo Li also felt somewhat upset.

Their Ancestor had hoped they could achieve another minor breakthrough in this battle. However, despite fighting for so long and having matched their opponents, they still hadn’t achieved a breakthrough in their realms.

The medicinal efficacy of the three Dragon Tiger Pills they had consumed earlier was still continuously converting into Mana. This potent energy surged through their meridians like a great river, steadily transforming into their cultivation base. Even so, a small gap still remained to their breakthrough.

By now, the Shen Heng Sect disciples at the Origin Sea and Divine Bridge Realms were utterly exhausted. Only a few Nirvana Realm Elders were still bitterly holding on.

Ye Yun sat inside the carriage, watching the battle and making silent calculations.

Currently, among these three youngsters, Luo Li and Jun Moxiao are at the Divine Bridge Realm, so they still need some time to break through. However, Su Wanyi, at the Shaping God Realm, is on the verge of a breakthrough after this arduous battle.

As Ye Yun made this calculation, countless minute, star-like runes flickered and transformed within his unfathomably deep, demonic eyes, emitting an indescribable glimmer.

On the square below, at that very instant, the cultivation base of all the embattled Shen Heng Sect disciples rose by an entire level.

As a result, the pressure on Luo Li, Jun Moxiao, and Su Wanyi increased dramatically.

"Senior Sister, the Ancestor is giving us special treatment again!" Jun Moxiao exclaimed, overjoyed. He burst into laughter, his spirits incredibly high, and the sword light from his hand flowed like a torrential river.

Luo Li also smiled.

BANG!

Su Wanyi, who had manifested as a Divine Dragon Phantom in mid-air, suddenly shuddered and her true form was revealed. At this moment, her aura surged dramatically, and she broke through to the Ninth Layer of the Phase of God.

Finally, I’ve broken through!

Su Wanyi was both surprised and overjoyed, the delight on her beautiful face impossible to hide.

Upon reaching the Ninth Layer of the Phase of God, her Mana was now dozens of times more potent than before, and her combat strength had once again increased astonishingly.

A Shen Heng Sect Disciple of Heaven’s Pride at the Divine Bridge Realm, whose cultivation had also been boosted, was momentarily stunned seeing Su Wanyi. Then, he suddenly launched a sneak attack. A dazzling sword light tore through the air, slashing toward Su Wanyi.

"Senior Sister, watch out!" Jun Moxiao shouted a warning. He was too far away, and it was too late to provide aid.

Su Wanyi snapped back to her senses. Just as she was about to use the Dragon God Body Technique to dodge the attack from behind, her peripheral vision caught a black shadow hurtling over.

BANG!

That Disciple of Heaven’s Pride from the Shen Heng Sect was struck by the black shadow and instantly exploded into a mist of blood.

"With Old Cat here, no one gets to harm the little master!" the Big Black Cat declared smugly, appearing in mid-air. It licked its paws with its blood-red tongue, its dark eyes gleaming.
