Chapter 97: The Arrival of the Spirit Realm Master (1/2)

Qin Yu and Qing Yun returned to the inn together As chance would have it, the inn they found was actually the exact same one as last time.

The two shared a knowing smile when they saw the inn before bidding farewell, each returning to their respective rooms.

“Ah, wait a second.” Qin Yu was just about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and hastily stopped walking, calling out to Qing Yun.

Qing Yun stayed upstairs and had already started climbing when she was called. She looked at Qin Yu, asking softly: “Is there anything else?”

“Yeah, I forgot to ask something just now. Why did you, Qin Zhao, and everyone else come to Bao Ding City?” This question had always made Qin Yu very curious.

Qing Yun turned around and walked to beside Qin Yu, not replying immediately. Instead, she asked something: “Do you know about the six big powers in Qiongxi Country?”

Qin Yu nodded. He penised had inherited the majority of the original Qin Yu’s memories. The six big powers of Qiongxi Country were very famous and it was impossible to not know about them.

“I know about it, what does it have to do with the six great powers?” Qin Yu didn’t understand.

“Ten kilometers north of Bao Ding City lies a mountain called Zheng Yang Mountain 1 That’s the location of one of the great six powers, the Sun Sect.”

Qin Yu didn’t understand why Qing Yun was suddenly talking about the Sun Sect’s location but reacted very quickly.

“Right.” Qing Yun nodded, “The Sun Sect holds a public disciple recruitment event every ten years and it’s next month. Therefore, all kinds of talented youths are rushing to Zheng Yang Mountain.”

“For us from the southwest, it is necessary to pass through Bao Ding City to get to Zheng Yang Mountain. Since it was already dark and we had heard of Bao Ding City’s traditional lantern festival, we decided to stay here for a night. Qin Zhao and the others probably had the same idea. However, we didn’t expect to see you here and for so many things to happen tonight.”

Qin Yu also thought that the world was truly crazy. Nobody had anticipated for so much to happen tonight. Especially Qin Zhao- how could he have thought that he would die here tonight?

“You wanted to join the Sun Sect?” Qin Yu asked casually.

“Yeah.” Qing Yun nodded.

The powers of a sect was even stronger than the royal family of Qiongxi Country. There would be enormous benefits for both the individual and their family if they managed to enter the sect as a disciple. If their luck was good and was liked by the sect, they could become a core disciple. That would make their status rocket and their future would be filled with opportunities, also allowing their family to share in the limelight.

Therefore, regardless of the family, everybody wanted to join a cultivation sect.

“Qin Yu, why don’t you come with us to the Sun Sect? With your strength, you absolutely wouldn’t have a problem becoming a disciple of the sect. If you become a member, you’ll be under the sect’s protection and so it won’t be easy for the Qin Family or the Shadows to find trouble with you.” Qing Yun’s beautiful eyes were bright upon suddenly discovering that the idea she had just now was actually very brilliant. It was the best way to solve Qin Yu’s current problem.

Qin Yu shook his head and rejected it with a smile. “It’s no use even if I become a member of the Sun Sect. Sure the Qin Family wouldn’t dare to start anything with the Sun Sect, but the shadows aren’t the same. Do you really think the sect would offend the Shadows for me? They wouldn’t and when the time comes, it’d already be pretty good of them to not directly hand me over.”

“This…..” Qing Yun choked, not knowing what to say for a long time. The Shadows weren’t a force a sect could compete with.

After all, their power was huge. If it was just the small branch in Qiongxi Country, the sect could contend against it. However, there was no prosperous sect that would dare go against the Shadows for a mere disciple. If they provoked them, the Shadows could ask for reinforcements. Once the extremely powerful reinforcements come, they would be finished.

“Go back and rest. Don’t worry, I can handle my own business. Good night.” Qin Yu smiled.

“En, good night.” Qing Yun also didn’t say much more.

Soon after, the two both returned to their respective rooms.

Qin Yu’s heart was a little unsettled.

Power, power ah. Right now, he was filled with an unmatchable thirst for power.

Right now, he had to break into Transformation Realm as quickly as possible. Otherwise, nevermind dealing with the Shadows, even just the Qin Family can ruin him.

What a pity that he had wasted an entire year sleeping.

Fortunately, the year hadn’t been completely useless. At least right now, he was at the cusp of breaking through.

For the past year, the《Secrets of Eternal Life》and the Earth Spirit Pearl had been absorbing the heavenly and earthly qi like crazy. Although the spiritual qi had mostly been absorbed by his mind and spirit pearl, there was a little detained in his torso area 2. After accumulating little by little for so long, he was on the edge of breaking through.

Right now, Qin Yu wanted to make one big push and break through to the late stage of Immersion Realm.

He swiftly sat in a cultivation position and took out a chunk of jade from his space ring. This was precisely the one he had taken from Liu Yuru.

From the outside, there didn’t seem to be anything special about the lump of green jade. But when Qin Yu cracked the jade with his fingers, a green liquid seeped out from it. The room became filled with spiritual qi, instantly allowing one to feel at ease.

The green jade’s liquid was precisely liquified spiritual qi.

Spiritual qi had always been the energy of the heavens and earth existing in a gaseous state. The fact that it had actually compressed and become a liquid showed just how powerful and pure this spiritual qi was. A single drop was worth an unimaginable drop of spiritual qi.

In fact, this jade pendant was priceless. It was a pity that some people could not recognize its true value, making it easy for Qin Yu to get it.

Qin Yu clenched his hands around the jade, completely absorbing the dripping condensed qi. In that instant, his entire figure seemed to glow with a dull, green light. He crushed to jade to smithereens, allowing the liquid to fully seep into his body and be absorbed.

‘Peng’ sounds echoed from within his body as the barriers were broken through, smoothly allowing him to advance to the late stage of Immersion Realm. A feeling of satisfaction spread throughout his body as his internal energy surged. He almost couldn’t help but release a whistle in satisfaction, but forced it down to avoid disturbing others.

“I didn’t think that the spiritual qi in the jade would be so strong. It’d probably even be enough for a normal cultivator to break through three grades at once.” Qin Yu stared at the dusty remnants of jade in his hands, mumbling to himself. Luckily for him, it was just enough to break through the last barrier. This showed clearly how difficult it was for him to break through to the next cultivation realm. It was tens, hundreds of times harder than others.

It was very fortunate to break through. That night, he slept very well.
