1399 A Terrifying Number of Supremes (1/2)
While Tang Xiu was inside the palace, his whole body was filled with great energy. All sorts of different types of energy spanning thousands of kilometers away from him were all absorbed continuously into his body.
”The Heavenly Art of Cosmic Genesis undoubtedly surpasses all cultivation techniques in the Immortal World. Although my power has seen tremendous growth, I'm only able to contend with an early-stage Supremacy Stage powerhouse. However, I can already see the loci of the heavenly laws this clearly.
”Unfortunately, the effects of god blood are already greatly ineffective. Otherwise, I would be able to return to the pinnacle within two hundred years if I continued to train at this rate.
”It's time to take a break from training and prepare the Divinity Attainment pills.”
Tang Xiu stood up. When he stepped outside the palace, he froze slightly. This was because he saw that nearly half of the upper echelons of the Great Tang Empire were standing outside. Each of them had worried expressions on their faces.
”What's happening?”
Tang Xiu did not understand the meaning of this and asked.
Ouyang Lulu quickly walked forward with her worried expression now dissipated from her face. She said, ”You sealed yourself away for so long, and furthermore, all the Immortal Force energy within thousands of miles from here has all rushed into the palace. We were afraid that there was a problem with your cultivation, that's why we all came here to wait for you. You… Are you okay?”
Tang Xiu laughed and replied, ”I'm okay. I'm very well! Everyone! Go do your own things! I won't be in solitude to cultivate for the foreseeable future. I just need to refine some pills now.”
”Yes!”
As the crowd proceeded to decrease in size, Tang Xiu looked at the few left. They were all Tang Xiu's women. They hadn't seen Tang Xiu in a while, so they obviously missed him a lot. It was only after Tang Xiu's reassurance and calming words that they were willing to leave and return to their homes.
”Master.”
The unbelievably beautiful Gu Yin was spectating from afar. She floated over to Tang Xiu with a leaf hanging from the side of her mouth.
”Not bad!” Tang Xiu chuckled. ”You haven't even been training for three hundred years, and you're already an Earth Immortal stage cultivator. A rapid growth rate such as yours is extremely rare even in the whole Immortal World.”
Gu Yin laughed and replied, ”Master, at the most, I will be able to break through to the Celestial Immortal Stage within the next six months.”
Tang Xiu happily replied, ”Not bad. Not bad at all.”
Gu Yin said, ”Master, my training speed is actually quite slow. Compared to sister Yan'er, I'm so horrendously slow that it's shameful. You don't know this, but sister Yan'er told me six months ago that with another three years of cultivation, she would be able to break through to the Supremacy Stage. Yinyin also wants to become a Supreme cultivator in the Immortal World and also be able to assist my master.”
Tang Xiu chuckled and replied, ”Your master doesn't need your help. As long as you can happily cultivate and become stronger and stronger, there will be a day where you will be able to protect your loved ones. That will be sufficient.”
They continued to chat.
Suddenly, the sky was filled with tribulation clouds, and thunder rumbled. When Tang Xiu raised his head and looked at the heavens, the edges of his face crawled into a bigger smile. This was already the thirteenth time seeing such a sight in the last two hundred and forty years. It looked like someone else was breaking through to the Supremacy Stage.
”It's Senior Sister!”
Gu Yin watched as a silhouette rushed into the sky and squealed in surprise and excitement.
Tang Xiu watched Gu Yan'er in her white robes, floating in the air. He nodded his head and chucked. ”Your senior sister is already a powerhouse in the Perfected Golden Immortal stage. She's only a silver away from stepping into the Supremacy Stage. After a few hundred years of cultivation, not only did she recover her strength back to her peak, but she even broke through to the Supremacy Stage! Truly, the speed of her growth is extremely fast. With the help of the god blood and adding onto her potential, she should be able to pass the 49 Heavenly Tribulations with no difficulties. Looks like our Great Tang Empire will be adding another Supremacy Stage powerhouse to our numbers.”
Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!
Silhouettes suddenly appeared in front of Tang Xiu, as quickly as lightning. There were sixteen of them in total, and all of them were Supremacy Stage powerhouses. Although there were only Old Sycamore and the Obsideum Immortal Father at the middle-stage Supremacy Stage, many powerful cultivators in the Supremacy Stage still suddenly appeared at the same time. This was an extremely frightening and impressive sight that struck awe into all spectators.
