745 The Riddle of Cultivation (1/2)
Then, Ling Xiaozui closed the door before he turned his head, in sync with Dugu Chou. Their four eyes stared at Yun Yang without blinking, their gazes wild, like perverts lusting over a beauty.
Yun Yang was shocked. ”What do you want to do? Why are you looking at me like that?” He hurriedly checked his person to see if anything was amiss.
Ling Xiaozui said with a smile, ”Young brother, you have advanced significantly from this fated chance! I see that your temperament has changed as well, your state of mind is closer to perfection. it looks like you have found incredible joy, an event worthy of celebration!”
Dugu Chou laughed as well, despite a wash of surprise that flashed across his gaze.
These two men had obviously restrained themselves with much difficulty from asking the question while they were on their way back.
Others might not have seen it, but Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou? No matter how Yun Yang concealed his cultivation base or restored to himself to purity, how could the two of them not notice his skyrocketing progress?
Yun Yang chortled as well, mulling over his choice of words and way of speaking.
”Young brother, you must have something you want to ask if you have followed us all the way. Is it very important?” asked Ling Xiaozui.
”Yes, it is indeed.” Yun Yang admitted honestly.
Dugu Chou chuckled as well. ”You have been silent all the way and your cultivation base advancement is shocking. I believe you must've experienced some unique turn of fortune,but you didn't share the happiness with your loved ones immediately. Obviously, you must be troubled by something important. Perhaps it's related to your close one as well?”
”Senior Dugu is wise and sharp indeed,” Yun Yang said, impressed.
”Is it regarding the cultivation base?” Ling Xiaozui asked with a grin.
”Yes.”
”The last time I came, I perceived the oddity in the girl's cultivation base. Firstly, it's unbelievable; secondly, it's unimaginable. Now that you have put it out in the open…” Ling Xiaozui said, ”Ask whatever you want to know. If the two of us can't even answer the mysteries and questions of cultivation in this world, I believe no one else can.”
This was simply the unexaggerated truth.
Yun Yang pondered, sorting through his thoughts, and finally spoke, ”Actually, what boggles me isn't a difficult matter… It's more or less regarding the particular categorization of our cultivation realm and level.”
There was a pause before he continued. ”Based on the example of common cultivators, it can be said that they have already arrived at the pinnacle when they can reach the summit of peak realm. However, this realm is only a beginner's standard to proficient cultivators. When one achieves the pinnacle of the heaven realm, there's still the Dao realm. Initially, these are advanced levels that this junior has never touched nor imagined but now, not only has this junior ascended to the pinnacle of ninth Dao realm due to fate and circumstance, I've even gone past it. Yet, the pinnacle of Dao realm is already the limit of Tianxuan Continent's cultivators. There is no level higher, even in rumors or myths.”
”I've recalled all the past experiences about this, especially historical legends. The cultivation base of the super experts in those legends obviously did not stop at this standard. Like the Seventeenth Master of the Abyss and others, they were not of what the level of ninth Dao realm cultivation base could cover.”
”I mentioned just now that due to the quirk of fate, my cultivation base has exceeded the ninth Dao realm and entered a new realm. However, this junior has no idea what sort of a realm that is – in other words, what is the future path of my cultivation journey?”
Yun Yang spoke respectfully, ”I ask for help from both seniors to resolve my doubts.”
Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui chortled in unison upon hearing what Yun Yang said. Reminiscence flashed across their eyes as they remembered their youth.
