Chapter 857: Chapter 854 Departure!

“The Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture,” left by Lie Tian Emperor, the founder of the Emperor Immortal Sect, is a Great Emperor Immortal Skill. Among fire element techniques, it is incredibly formidable, with few techniques in the entire East Desolate region that can compare.

And this perfectly complements Zhou Youwei’s Fiery Sun Saint Body.

The Mystic Ice Saint Technique was initially not practiced by Zhou Youwei. She started cultivating it only after Ye Xuan awakened her Dual Souls, and it was personally chosen for her by Ye Xuan.

Although this method isn’t a Great Emperor Immortal Skill, in some sense, it is not weaker than one.

One crucial point is that the Mystic Ice Saint Technique aligns with Zhou Youwei’s Mystic Ice Saint Body even more than the Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture does with her Fiery Sun Saint Body.

This compensates for the weakness of Zhou Youwei practicing the Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture first and the Mystic Ice Saint Technique later.

During these three days, Zhou Youwei and Ye Xuan were always together.

The high ranking officials of the Emperor Immortal Sect were aware that the decisive battle between the Emperor Immortal Sect and the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect was imminent, so they did not disturb the two, allowing them to focus on their cultivation.

The effects of the Yin Yang Xuan Pill were absorbed throughout, and yesterday, Zhou Youwei successfully advanced into the Heavenly Human Realm!

If in the past, Zhou Youwei would never have imagined that she could progress from the Earth Element Realm to the Heavenly Human Realm in just over a year.

This is a terrifying cultivation speed.

It far surpasses many renowned young geniuses from the East Desolate region.

Even the renowned Fierce Sun Saint Heir was only at the Heavenly God Realm.

But the Fierce Sun Saint Heir is much older than Zhou Youwei.

Perhaps only a few, like the Holy Daughter Lu Li of the Dragon Burying Court and Zhu Xiuxiu of the Zhu Family from Southern Saber Mountain, could compare to her.

Unlike them, Zhou Youwei grew up in the Emperor Immortal Sect, lacking resources and techniques, yet keeping pace with them speaks volumes.

During these three days, Ye Xuan did not take this opportunity to teach anything new. Instead, he helped Zhou Youwei refine many details within the two major techniques.

Although these details might not significantly enhance Zhou Youwei’s cultivation, they could elevate her combat power by more than one level!

Whether it’s swordsmanship or blade techniques, Zhou Youwei displayed immense talent.

Boom————

Zhou Youwei’s left hand wielded the Narrow Blade Winter Thunder, carving a tear thousands of miles long in the void before her, covered in winter frost and echoing with thunder.

Crack, crack, crack————

It was the vibration of the void!

Slash!

Meanwhile, Zhou Youwei’s form twirled, dancing like the Nine Heavens Mysterious Goddess, her right hand sweeping out with the Divine Sun Sword.

Another rift thousands of miles wide appeared, blazing with fierce, terrifying fire.

The two tears crossed, forming an ‘X’, only dispersing after a long while.

“Not bad.”

Ye Xuan, with hands in pockets, observed from afar and nodded slightly, saying, “In just three days, only my Youwei could integrate sword and blade techniques to this extent.”

Zhou Youwei, having retracted the Winter Thunder Blade and Divine Sun Sword, flew towards Ye Xuan.

Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s remark, Zhou Youwei smiled sweetly and softly said, “When shall we depart?”

“Now.” Ye Xuan smiled faintly.

Boom!

At that moment, an incredibly wild force with an ominous aura surged forth.

Soon, a giant figure appeared ahead.

It was a terrifying Desolate Wolf, a hundred feet tall, with a Dharma Form that shook the heavens.

East Desolate Wolf!

“Master.” The East Desolate Wolf bowed its head submissively and respectfully said.

“Young Master.” Behind the East Desolate Wolf stood Fist Venerate Ao Rulong.

Not far, the East Desolate Mountain God and Huang Yue also made rare appearances.

“Elder.” Huang Yue respectfully said.

Ye Xuan nodded slightly and told Huang Yue, “I’ll first head to the Central Earth Divine Continent. During this time, you can visit the Sun Swallowing Sect, Dragon Burying Court, Southern Saber Mountain, and Immortal King Hall. This will enhance your strength further.”

Huang Yue cupped his hands and said, “Yes, Elder.”

Ye Xuan glanced at the East Desolate Mountain God, secretly instructing, “Keep an eye on him.”

“I comply with Emperor Ye’s Decree.” The East Desolate Mountain God respectfully accepted the command.

For someone Ye Xuan personally instructed him to care for, the East Desolate Mountain God dared not slack off.

During this period, he had been with Huang Yue and believed in Huang Yue’s potential to become an Earth Ancestor.

So, even without Ye Xuan’s words, he would have taken good care of Huang Yue.

“Unless his life is in danger, do not intervene,” Ye Xuan reminded.

“Yes!” The East Desolate Mountain God understood Ye Xuan’s meaning all too well.

After the instructions, Ye Xuan took Zhou Youwei and leaped onto the back of the East Desolate Wolf.

Heading to the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect couldn’t be done through flying.

They’d let the East Desolate Wolf carry them, stopping by the Yunxiao Sect to use their Transmission Array to reach the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect.

As for Fist Venerate Ao Rulong, he naturally wouldn’t ride the East Desolate Wolf but followed behind on his own.

Before leaving, Ye Xuan had the East Desolate Wolf pause at the Emperor Immortal Sect.

Zhou Zihuang, Lv Tiangang, Zhou Chaolong, and others returned from Zhongxuan Mountain to see him off personally, which was essential to witness.

It wasn’t the first time Zhou Zihuang and others had seen the East Desolate Wolf, so they weren’t too surprised, but Jiang Jing and many disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect were seeing it for the first time and were utterly shocked.

“Senior Brother’s mount is so majestic, what kind of wolf is this?”

“I don’t know, but given Senior Brother’s status, this wolf must be at least… a Sixth Rank Demon Beast!” boldly guessed a disciple.

“Nonsense, Sixth Rank? At least Ninth Rank!” declared an enthusiastic admirer of Ye Xuan.

Yet the East Desolate Wolf in the sky heard these words, grew a bit agitated, and even considered eliminating these ignorant ants.

A Sixth Rank Demon Beast?

A Ninth Rank Demon Beast?

What rubbish? He could obliterate thousands with a wave, yet they dared compare him?

“Back then, when I saved you, what kind of ant were you?” Ye Xuan sensed the unrest beneath him and spoke flatly.

A few words dissolved the East Desolate Wolf’s anger instantly, leaving him speechless.

He could act recklessly around anyone but Ye Xuan himself.

“O Youwei, take care on your journey.”

At that moment, Zhou Zihuang and the others looked at her with deep emotions, reluctance, and relief.

He, Zhou Zihuang, felt a surge of pride as he looked at Zhou Youwei, the Holy Daughter of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

The fact that Zhou Youwei, raised in Emperor Immortal Sect with limited resources and techniques, could stand shoulder to shoulder with those prominent individuals said much about her potential.

In those three days, Ye Xuan didn’t choose to teach anything new, focusing instead on helping Zhou Youwei refine many details within the two major techniques she was practicing.

While these details might not increase Zhou Youwei’s cultivation significantly, they could elevate her combat power by more than just one level!

Whether it was swordsmanship or blade techniques, Zhou Youwei demonstrated extraordinary talent.

Boom—

Zhou Youwei swung the Narrow Blade Winter Thunder in her left hand, cleaving a path tens of thousands of miles long through the void in front of her, cloaked in frost, with thunderous sound rippling through.

Crackling!

At the same time, Zhou Youwei turned around, dancing like the Mysterious Woman of the Nine Heavens, and with a sweep of her right hand, sent the Divine Sun Sword slashing across.

Once more, a chasm of thousands of miles appeared, burning with fiery flame and terrifying heat.

The two openings, one vertical and one horizontal, formed a cross, dissipating only after some time.

“Not bad.”

Ye Xuan, his hands tucked in his pockets, watched from a distance, nodding subtly, “In three days, to integrate sword and blade techniques to such an extent, only my Youwei could achieve this.”

Zhou Youwei now retracted both her Winter Thunder Blade and Divine Sun Sword and flew over to Ye Xuan.

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Zhou Youwei smiled sweetly and said softly, “When are we setting off?”

“Now.” Ye Xuan smiled slightly.

Boom!

At this moment, an extremely fierce and vicious aura surged forward.

Mere moments later, a massive figure appeared ahead.

It was a terrifying East Desolate Wolf, towering a hundred meters, its presence earth-shattering.

The East Desolate Wolf!

“Master.” The East Desolate Wolf bowed its head in servitude, speaking respectfully.

“My lord.” Behind the East Desolate Wolf stood Fist Venerate Ao Rulong.

Not far off, the East Desolate Mountain God and Huang Yue made rare appearances.

“Senior.” Huang Yue said respectfully.

Ye Xuan gave a slight nod before saying, “I will first go to the Central Earth Divine Continent. During this period, allow yourself to be a guest among the Sun Swallowing Sect, the Dragon Burying Court, and the Southern Saber Mountain to further enhance your strength.”

Huang Yue clasped his hands respectfully. “Of course.”

The East Desolate Mountain God respectfully accepted the command. “I shall comply with Emperor Ye’s Decree.”

For someone whom Emperor Ye has personally advised to look after, he would naturally spare no effort.

He had been with Huang Yue for a while now and saw great potential in him to become a regional Earth Ancestor.

So, even without Ye Xuan’s words, the East Desolate Mountain God would still look after him with high hopes for Huang Yue’s future as a formidable Earth Ancestor.

After giving out the instructions, Ye Xuan said quietly, “Let’s go.”
