Chapter 594 - Why Didnst You Act? (2/2)

Once again, Gu Yue shook her head. “I just want to go with you. Don’t invite the others.”

Tang Wulin blinked a few times, a gush of warmth filling his heart. Although Gu Yue always came off as cold to strangers, he could tell that she treated him specially. After knowing her for so many years, he had become accustomed to her spontaneous mood swings. But no matter what, whenever he faced danger, she was always the first to leap to his side.

“Okay,” said Tang Wulin. “Let me finish cultivating my Purple Demon Eyes and eat breakfast first though. I’m totally starving! We can go right after.”

“Pftt. I did find it strange that you slept without eating dinner first last night. It was totally not you.”

“Not me?” Tang Wulin asked, cocking a brow.

“Well, you’re a glutton.”

Tang Wulin stared at her, face twisted into a sunken expression for several excruciating moments. “So that’s how you thought of me! I’m hurt!” he said, clutching his heart in exaggeration.

Gu Yue giggled. “Then if you can go without breakfast today, I’ll take back my words.”

“Uh. Nevermind. I’m a glutton,” Tang Wulin said, expression instantly back to normal.

He turned back to the horizon just as the sun rose. A flash of purple, and his eyes captured the light, filling him with tingling warmth. He could feel that his Purple Demon Eyes were on the verge of a breakthrough. After many years stuck in the first stage, he was finally about to enter the second.

Cultivating the Purple Demon Eyes was split into four stages. From first to fourth, the stages were Survey, Detailed, Mustard Seed, and Boundless. Few ever managed to reach the third stage, not to mention the fourth. Regardless of that, cultivating the Purple Demon Eyes had a profound effect on the growth of one’s spiritual power.

Tang Wulin sensed that the rapid growth of his Purple Demon Eyes was due to the Body Sect’s training he had undergone. It had dragged out the potential hiding within him and strengthened his spiritual power.

“Gu Yue, what’s your spiritual power at now? Do you know?”

“I’m not sure. But I’m certain it’s still higher than yours,” Gu Yue said, a slight smirk on her lips.

“Hey, I’ll have you know that my spiritual power increased a lot recently,” said Tang Wulin. “Maybe it’s even higher than yours now.”

Gu Yue rolled her eyes at him. “You wish.”

“How are you so confident that you’ve got me beat?” Tang Wulin pressed.

“I’m not in the Spirit Sea realm anymore.” With that, Gu Yue closed her window, her figure disappearing from Tang Wulin’s sight.

“Not in the Spirit Sea realm anymore? She couldn’t have regressed—” A thought struck him as he mumbled to himself. Wait! There’s no way her spiritual power regressed. She’s still so powerful, and spiritual power usually grows as someone ages, all the way until they’re fifty years old. Since she didn’t regress, then she’s…. Holy shit! Did she break through to the next realm?

Tang Wulin began to sweat at the thought. Cultivating spiritual power grew harder and harder with each realm achieved. In fact, each realm was multiple times harder to reach than the previous.

However, it was still a possibility he had to consider! After the Spirit Sea realm came the Spirit Abyss realm. The power of the Spirit Abyss realm was that of an abyssal prison between heaven and hell.

At that realm, everything existed. The human mind was physically incapable of comprehending its entirety. As such, it was necessary to possess such mighty spiritual power in order to obtain legendary spirit souls. A soul master at this level could fuse with whatever spirit soul they wished. Even an orange or red spirit soul. But if that occurred, their remaining capacity would only be that of the Spirit Sea realm. If excluding orange and red spirit souls, they could fuse with up to five of any level up to and including black.

Normally, the Spirit Abyss realm was the limit of humanity.
