737 A Tremendous Improvement! (1/2)

Yun Yang slowly awakened from a deep sleep. After the repeated rounds of extreme torment, his physical and mental energy should have been drained; he should have felt like he was utterly depleted. However, Yun Yang only felt indescribably at ease now.

A switch of thoughts could easily summon the surge of energy within him and a slight bit of cultivation work could make his body float airily like he possessed no weight at all. It was not an uncontrollable imbalance of weightlessness, but a complete manipulation of control.

Carefully feeling the surging energy within him, the aggressive force in the past that pulsed but could not be exerted was no longer there. It felt gentle and obedient to his will, yet the actual power was a hundred times stronger than it had been before. There was no doubt about the authenticity of this feeling.

Every pore on his body could breathe on their own, inhaling and exhaling the energy of both heaven and earth. The birth of a thought could allow him to absorb the surrounding basic Qi and silently turn it into his personal reservoir of energy without any hindrances.

Yun Yang dared not believe the tremendous improvement he had experienced upon the breakthrough. He cultivated to observe himself internally, attempting to peer at the changes. What greeted him, flowing in his meridians, was not the spiritual force he originally possessed; it had turned into a special spiritual energy that was purple and endless. Even his dantian was violet in color and the inner walls of his meridians were lined with a thin purple film that felt incredibly resilient.

Yun Yang tried to maneuver the spiritual energy in his dantian only to realize with surprise that the cycle speed of the spiritual Qi within him had increased by more than ten times compared to how it had been before!

”How is this tremendous progress possible? It is akin to leaping right into heaven to take on God's role!”

Checking his cultivation again, Yun Yang discovered that all nine mystical arts of his had ascended to the pinnacle of the seventh stage while his mystical Qi cultivation base had gone past the ninth Dao realm; like Ji Lingxi, it had reached a previously unknown realm of expertise.

The most delightful part of all of this was his Endless Divine Art; it had arrived at the pinnacle of the fifth level!

To the youth, the improvement of his cultivation base was delightful, but there was always a cultivation experience that could be followed. Even when he had ascended to an unknown realm, there was a direction forward. Unlike the cultivation base, the journey of the Endless Divine Art's progress was immensely arduous. Developing into another stage was usually several times harder than it had been previously, so the current breakthrough was honestly a remarkably precious opportunity!

”Ayaya…”

Emmie was about to go insane from ecstasy. It shook and danced in the space, its long tendrils waving around speedily. Perhaps it was overwhelmed with elation, which caused it to pull its deeply planted roots out as well. Sprinting around, its five large leaves fluttered everywhere. The space was a blur of green but enjoyably so.

Jiji that had benefitted greatly from this incident covered its head with its pair of wings that was just grown with a layer of thin down. It buried its head into the space's soil, exposing only its buttocks.

It was evident that Jiji was scared of the overly excited Emmie slapping it with its tendrils in its delirium. That would be a scathing sting at the end of happiness.

Yun Yang suppressed the glee that bubbled within him and focused on the contents of the Endless Divine Art's recently acquired fifth level.

The pithy lines of the Endless Divine Art's fifth stage were already reeling in his mind, but Yun Yang was caught between laughing and lamenting the current situation. He had cultivated the fifth stage to the pinnacle without even knowing the pithy formula! What kind of a situation was this?

Could the Endless Divine Art have a hidden attribute? Could it only advance as long as one was adequately capable?

In spite of this, when Yun Yang had checked the pithy lines and fully comprehended it, he could finally confirm that while the smooth sailing pinnacle achieved was real, there was still a considerable difference from the pinnacle which had been cultivated step by step.

The fifth stage's maxim – Bless the people and the world, massacre – where did the heart go? Picturesque territories stained into shape by blood, the five-leaf lotus of gold should always stay…
