“Could it be the Grand Elder of our Heaven Demon Sect?”

“That’s right. The Grand Elder must have made a breakthrough. Other than him, it’s impossible for anyone else to have such ability.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic aura exploded from the depths of the Heaven Demon Sect.

Almost the moment the aura appeared, a figure flew over quickly.

“Greetings, Grand Elder.”

The higher-ups of the Heaven Demon Sect immediately bowed.

The Heaven Demon Sect’s Grand Elder said with confusion and shock, “Who is it? Who triggered this heavenly might?”

Everyone was stunned and asked in disbelief,

“Elder, didn’t you trigger this heavenly might?”

The Grand Elder shook his head repeatedly.

“How could I possibly trigger this heavenly might? My cultivation level is only at the Shattering Void Realm. I’m far from qualified to trigger the heavenly might!”

Hiss!

Everyone immediately felt their scalps turn numb.

The one who triggered the heavenly might was actually not the Grand Elder of the Heaven Demon Sect?

Who else could it be?

Could there be a peerless expert hidden in the Heaven Demon Sect?

How come they never knew?

Actually, it was no wonder they were unable to sense it.

The Eight Trigrams Heaven Sealing Formation was a top-grade Martial Monarch Realm formation to begin with. Although it was only restricted by Lu Xiaoran to Zhishui Peak, its pressure was enough to easily cover the entire Heaven Demon Sect.

Therefore, even if everyone racked their brains, they were still unable to find the exact location of the Eight Trigrams Sky Sealing Formation.

Lu Xiaoran was also somewhat surprised. He had never expected that a top-grade Martial Monarch Realm formation could actually activate the heavenly might!

It was as if even the heavens did not allow such a formation to be easily formed. Therefore, it kept sending down its might in an attempt to destroy the grand formation.

However!

The Eight Trigrams Heaven Sealing Formation was unwilling to give up at all. It also emitted its own pressure and condensed the power of the earth to resist the heavenly might.

The two fought, and the world darkened. At this moment, all the living beings seemed to have become ants and spectators. They could only look up at the battle between the two and were unable to interfere at all.

Finally, the heavenly might emitted a world-shaking thunder sound and slowly dissipated.

The Eight Trigrams Heaven Sealing Formation had forced back the heavenly might with an Martial Monarch Realm aura!

This made Lu Xiaoran extremely shocked!

This was only an array formation, but because it had reached the Martial Monarch Realm, it was able to resist the heavens.

Then just how terrifying would a true Martial Monarch Realm expert be?

At this moment, Lu Xiaoran suddenly wanted to take in a few more disciples and step into the Martial Monarch Realm as soon as possible!

Unfortunately, disciples could not be obtained immediately.

“Forget it, I can’t rush it for now. I should cultivate the Azure Thearch Longevity Art first.”

Lu Xiaoran shook his head and set up a stone tablet at the edge of Zhishui Peak.

In the forbidden area of Zhishui Peak, anyone who entered would risk their lives.

Then, he turned around and returned to his room to enter seclusion.

He did not set up the other top-grade Martial Monarch Realm formation, the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning Formation.

The Martial Monarch Realm formation was already powerful enough to resist even the attacks of Martial Monarch Realm experts.

The Eight Trigrams Sky Sealing Formation was enough to protect Zhishui Peak.

Moreover, the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning Formation was incomparably dangerous. Once it was activated, all the living beings within the entire array would be destroyed by the divine lightning. The killing aura was too heavy and was not suitable for setting up in one’s own lair.

Of course, the most important reason was the spirit stones.

Wang Cai’s gift bag did not have a single spirit stone. Moreover, setting up the Martial Monarch Realm formation required a lot of energy. The Eight Trigrams Heaven Sealing Formation had already drained all of Lu Xiaoran’s savings for more than a decade.

As the saying went: “a capable housewife cannot cook without rice”. Even though Lu Xiaoran had the Martial Monarch Realm formation, he was still helpless.

After returning to his room, Lu Xiaoran made a seal and directly announced that he was going into seclusion to cultivate his cultivation technique.

The Azure Thearch Longevity Art was an extremely powerful Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique.

In terms of combat, its strength was rich and pure, and its output was endless. It could maximize the lethality of one’s attack.

In terms of replenishment, its absorption speed was stronger than other cultivation techniques of the same level. It could even be said to be the most outstanding.

Moreover, it had an extremely special and powerful effect.

It could quickly repair the injuries on one’s body!

It had to be known that only those with the strength of a Martial Monarch Realm expert could survive from a heavily injured body. After all, they could use cultivation techniques to treat their injuries before being able to regrow their bodies.

Now, after cultivating the Azure Thearch Longevity Art, Lu Xiaoran already had the means to recover his body.

It took him three days to cultivate the Azure Thearch Longevity Art and reach the perfected level.

This speed was rather terrifying.

It had to be known that Yun Lige had only cultivated about a tenth of the Primordial Chaos Emperor Scripture and had yet to completely master it.

On the other hand, Lu Xiaoran had already perfected the Azure Thearch Longevity Art in just three days!

After that, he cultivated the Azure Thearch Longevity Art for another month.

…

Time passed quickly.

Finally, after a month of bitter cultivation, Lu Xiaoran’s cultivation broke through to another level.

He woke up from his cultivation. Not only was his eyes not tired at all, but they were also filled with vitality and essence.

“This Azure Thearch Longevity Art is indeed powerful. If it were the Heaven Realm cultivation technique of the Heaven Demon Sect, with my strength that has just broken through to the Shattering Void Realm, it would probably take me at least half a year to break through. However, now, I’ve already broken through to the second level of the Shattering Void Realm. This cultivation speed is indeed heaven-defying.”

It had to be known that the higher one’s cultivation was, the harder it was to break through.

Even though Lu Xiaoran was a top-notch genius and could quickly comprehend the cultivation technique, he was still unable to change it. He still needed to abide by the Heaven Dao rules and take it step by step.

However, the Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique had shortened his time by about six times. Its terrifying degree simply made people fearful.

However, before he could enjoy the sense of accomplishment from cultivating hard and breaking through, a popping sound sounded from his dantian again.

He had broken through again!

He had reached the third level of the Shattering Void Realm.

“???”

Lu Xiaoran was somewhat dumbfounded. What was going on? Why had he broken through again in such a short period of time?

However, he quickly thought of something.

“Wang Cai.”

“Coming, coming, I’m here, Master.”

“Show me Yun Lige’s information panel.”

“Yes, I’m currently generating Yun Lige’s information panel.”

Name: Yun Lige.

Gender: Male.

Cultivation Technique: Primordial Chaos Emperor Scripture, cultivated to the second level.

Cultivation: Tenth level of the Master Realm, peak perfection.

“Indeed, I knew it!”

Lu Xiaoran was somewhat speechless. He had cultivated painstakingly for a month in exchange for him to break through to the second level of the Shattering Void Realm. He did not expect Yun Lige to contribute another level of cultivation to him.

“Wang Cai, if you do this, I’ll gradually lose the motivation to cultivate.”

“Master, after being bound to me, you don’t need to cultivate anymore. You just need to take in disciples.”

Lu Xiaoran rubbed his temples and said helplessly, “Aren’t you basically robbing me of my happiness?”

“Wang Cai detected an SS-level disciple. Do you want to recruit her?”
