Chapter 1985: Making Excuses (1/2)

Huang Xiaolong shuddered slightly as the sacred light from his body intensified further. The light pillars around him became more solid and real, while the tremors running through the Reverence Divine City became more violent, threatening to collapse the city.

Some of the spectating experts were lifted into the air by the energy vibrations from Huang Xiaolong’s sacred light.

When the light veins inside the meteorite rock drilled into Huang Xiaolong’s back, within a hidden space somewhere in the depths of the imperial courtyard space, a thin old man suddenly opened his eyes from his meditation. At that moment, every single inch of land and space within the Reverence Moon Academy appeared in his eyes, especially the changes taking place to the meteorite rocks’ four characters ‘Reverence Moon Academy.’

His gaze penetrated through time and space, falling on Huang Xiaolong. A pause later, a doting smile spread over his face, “I’ve waited for so many years. You’re finally here!”

The light veins inside the meteorite rock were still entering Huang Xiaolong’s body, tempering his physique. To his delight, the light veins seemed to be pure energy gestated by nature, drastically raising his strength.

Half a day later, when the light veins vanished, Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation had advanced to mid-Second Order Emperor Realm!

Watching this unbelievable scene, the crowd was dumbfounded. Half a day ago, Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation was far from advancing to the peak early Second Order Emperor Realm, yet a few hours later, he had already broken through to mid-Second Order Emperor Realm!

This was unheard of.

Probably, not even a level three origin treasure could bring this degree of benefit!

Huang Xiaolong looked at the meteoric rock that had dimmed, returning to its previous state. Though elated with the harvest, he couldn’t help but feel pity. If the meteorite rock’s light energy could have gone on for a few more days, there was a chance he could have directly broken through to Third Order Emperor Realm.

After the meteoric rock returned to normal, only the four characters ‘Reverence Moon Academy’ were still shining brilliantly. Just a while ago, Huang Xiaolong had fully comprehended the dao esoterics within the four characters.

Ao Ping stepped out from the crowd and looked at Huang Xiaolong with a complicated expression. He was naturally happy that Huang Xiaolong had succeeded in comprehending the four characters, yet he was also astounded just like any other person in the crowd.

“Your reputation is louder than me now!” Ao Ping teased in a joking manner.

Huang Xiaolong grinned. Honestly, his ability to comprehend the four characters in such a short time was all thanks to the Radiance Ancestor’s complete inheritance he had obtained. If it wasn’t for that, even relying on his three supreme godheads, three archdevils’ bloodline, and dumbfounding comprehending ability, he wouldn’t have comprehended the four characters in such a short time.

He had gained a great harvest in comprehending the four characters this time. It was not merely an increase in his strength or an improvement in every aspect of his physical body, but he had also gained a deeper understanding of heaven and earth’s power.

The light veins inside the meteoric rock were kind of heaven and earth power. After years of nurturing inside the meteoric rock, the amount and quality of this power were unimaginable. This was also the reason why Huang Xiaolong was able to advance from the early Second Order to the mid-Second Order Emperor Realm in half a day.

Even so, the amount of heaven and earth power he was rewarded from comprehending the four characters was a small portion of its entirety. If another person were to successfully comprehend the four characters, he too would be rewarded with the same amount of heaven and earth power.

“Let’s go to Reverence Moon Peak. It’s time for those four old men to fulfill their promises.” Huang Xiaolong said to Ao Ping.

Both made their way back to the Reverence Moon Academy.

The crowd was still lingering outside, each with their own thoughts, watching Huang Xiaolong’s back.

“Have you found out what is this Ao Li’s origins?” Qin Huangzhong asked the old man by his side.

The old man shook his head, “No clue. This Ao Li first appeared at the Sea of Radiance out of nowhere. It was said that he has been cultivating around the Sea of Radiance territory.”

“Continue to check!” Qin Huangzhong ordered. “Also, see what he needs and form a good bond with him. Better yet, let him serve our Fengdu City!”

“Yes, Young Lord! But if we take in Ao Li, we might offend Dun Hao!”
