”Your cultivation?” Yan Zaizen's eyes flashed with realization and acceptance as he faced Tao. Tao hadn't changed much outwardly but his cultivation was far from what he was before.
Tao was originally at the mid-True Essence Realm, but now...he had stepped solidly into the Heavenly Path. ”You've built your second-floor?” Yan Zaizen was both happy and conflicted.
Tao could sense his conflict. After all, he had essentially experienced a coma, stagnating while others progressed. He was just as conflicted and happy as Yan Zaizen kept increasing in strength while his cultivation was slower than a crawl.
”Mm, I've built my second-floor using the Law of the Sword.” With a smile, he walked up to Yan Zaizen and spread out his hands.
With a chuckle, Yan Zaizen hugged Tao. To him, it may have been an instant, but to Tao who didn't know about his life or death, he likely felt indescribable emotions. When they came into contact, Yan Zaizen sensed a familiar aura on Tao.
”You?” Shocked, he looked disbelievingly at Tao.
Laughing with vigor, Tao nodded, ”I married Lang Xue. Who would've known?” When he said those words, he had a little pride in his eyes.
”...” Processing this information, Yan Zaizen felt like he fell into a new world. Tao had Lang Xue aura deeply entrenched into his own, this was an indication of constant dual cultivation of the body and soul. Not to mention, Lang Xue's primal yin was far more special than normal, linked to divine beasts and the gigantus race.
”Thanks to Xiuhei Sovereign, I was capable of shattering her binds and restriction, giving her and her race freedom. I've also become an Inner Disciple of the Violet Source Palace. Palace Lord Yan has been generous and accepted me.” He explained.
After all, during the previous altercation, the Yun Clan's Patriarch tried to kill Yan Zaizen and was thusly killed by Zhou Xiuhei. They no longer had as much power as before.
”You've comprehended a spatial law on your own, exhibited incredible insight into space, and thus are a natural fit for the Violet Source Palace.” Shi Yan calmly stated, giving credit where credit's due.
”It's because of my Brother's support and notes in cultivation that I could reach this step,” humbly replying, he felt untold gratitude in his eyes.
Yan Zaizen was blank for a moment but then joyously laughed. ”Good! Good!” He turned to Bai Lufeng and felt he was far different than before. His aura was nearly unfathomable.
”My life and my fate belongs to you Young Lord, I don't dare to join any force unless you agreed.” Bai Lufeng had calm eyes radiating a dense sense of loyalty. Towards Yan Zaizen, he owed much. Too much.
Tao pat Bai Lufeng on the shoulder, ”he's an absolute genius in cultivating the Soul Source Path. He's already reached the Advanced Astral Soul Realm.”
”What?!” Truly startled, he swept his sense over Bai Lufeng and found it to be true. His soul energy and astral star formed were dense and powerful. Were they always this talented?
”You've all truly progressed while I napped. Already caught up and exceeded me.” Despite saying those words, he was truly happy. His smile said it all and his eyes radiated his truest of feelings.
”How's your current state?” Zhou Xiuhei stepped forward and asked.
”I'm fine as far as I can tell.” He wasn't truly certain and he was unsure why he slept for three thousand years, but he felt that, albeit on the surface he may not have changed, something at the very core of his existence has. He felt more like himself, no longer influenced by other things inducing a very conflicting feeling.
It could be explained that he no longer felt like an independent existence was pressing on his own. He couldn't explain it clearly, but that's how he felt.
