166 The Late-Stage Foundation Establishment
Zhou Yun slowly walked out of the cave abode.
At this moment, his entire body was wrapped in a faint spiritual mist. Her hair was wet, and drops of dew dripped down. The water from the spiritual energy slid down his strong muscles and across Zhou Yun’s skin. Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but follow the flow of the drops of spiritual energy water.
They saw Zhou Yun’s jet-black hair and his handsome face, which seemed to have been carved out bit by bit by the gods. As the water flowed down his neck, Zhou Yun’s skin appeared in their sight.
Ling Qingyun, Qiao’er, and even Venerable Xunling couldn’t help but breathe heavily.
!!
Originally, after Zhou Yun was reborn, his skin was as tender and smooth as a newborn. It was enough to make any female cultivator envious. After Zhou Yun comprehended the sword seed cultivation heart and the Great Path of heaven and earth, his entire body exuded a sense of transcendent beauty, as if he was an immortal!
But now, after Zhou Yun came out of his seclusion, other than his skin’s original envious tenderness, there were actually more faint lines on the surface of his skin!
These patterns seemed to be formed by spiritual energy. Every spiritual energy pattern seemed to fit in with the great momentum of heaven and earth and existed in every inch of Zhou Yun’s skin. It seemed to exist from a distance, but when he looked closer, he found nothing! It was as if the spiritual energy lines were just an illusion!
Everyone looked at Zhou Yun and felt that the spiritual energy pattern made Zhou Yun, who already looked like an immortal, even more mysterious!
Zhou Yun was merely standing there, but no one dared to make a sound or even breathe too hard. They were afraid that they would disturb the immortal who seemed to have walked out of a painting!
“Brother Zhou Yun is becoming more and more powerful! Could it be that this is the state he is in after breaking through to the golden core stage? I’m also in the golden core stage, but compared to Brother Zhou Yun, whether it’s in terms of aura or appearance, the changes before and after the breakthrough cannot be compared at all!” Qiao’er sighed in her heart. She had originally thought that after she had broken through to the golden core stage, she could catch up to Brother Zhou Yun’s pace with the help of her phoenix blood and phoenix fire. Now, it seemed that the distance between them was getting bigger and bigger!
“You guys, why are you all here?” Zhou Yun said. He didn’t expect that there would be so many people waiting outside his cave abode for closed-door cultivation.
Zhou Yun looked over and saw an unexpected figure in front of Ling Qingyun, Qiao’er, and the other elders. It was Venerable Xunling!
He was slightly on guard. After experiencing the matter with Xin Yu, the first person that Zhou Yun feared in this world was Xin Yu. The second one was undoubtedly the mysterious Venerable Xunling, who had a manual that could allow him to cultivate to the nascent soul stage, just like Xin Yu!
Even though Xin Yu wanted to cause trouble for Venerable Xunling on the surface, Zhou Yun was still very cautious. He had not ruled out the possibility that Xin Yu and Venerable Xunling were just putting on a show and that they were actually working together!
“Cough, cough. Zhou Yun, congratulations on breaking through to the golden core stage and coming out of seclusion.” Ling Qingyun was the first to cough. She slightly lost her composure. Ling Qingyun had never thought that there would be a day when she would be mesmerized by a disciple’s handsome appearance.
Ling Qingyun quickly threw the thought out of her mind. She looked at Zhou Yun and realized that not only did Zhou Yun become more handsome, but even his spiritual energy aura was also many times stronger than before!
However, no matter how Ling Qingyun probed, she was unable to sense Zhou Yun’s current cultivation level even if she were to throw his divine sense onto Zhou Yun!
“I didn’t expect Zhou Yun to become so powerful after breaking through to the golden core stage. Even I can’t sense his cultivation level!” Ling Qingyun’s heart was filled with shock!
“Brother Zhou Yun! Congratulations on breaking through to the golden core stage! Look, even Venerable Xunling has come to congratulate you!” Qiao’er said hurriedly. She leaned over, took a coat, and put it on Zhou Yun. Such a good-looking Brother Zhou Yun was hers!
Zhou Yun looked at Venerable Xunling in shock. When did he break through to the golden core stage? Was Venerable Xunling here to congratulate him?
Didn’t he just break through to the late-stage foundation establishment? Did something happen that he didn’t know about? Zhou Yun put on his shirt, covering his beautiful figure. He didn’t notice that after he put on his clothes, a trace of regret flashed across the depths of Ling Qingyun’s eyes.
“Long time no see, Venerable Xunling.” Zhou Yun greeted Venerable Xunling. He had too many questions to ask Venerable Xunling!
Whether it was this world or the matter regarding Xin Yu. Since Venerable Xunling was so powerful and mysterious, he should more or less know some secrets. Compared to Venerable Xunling’s cultivation resources, he wanted to know the truth behind this world!
“Cough, cough. I didn’t expect that there would be a day when I would be wrong. Zhou Yun, your talent is the most outstanding among all the disciples of the five sects.” Only after seeing Zhou Yun come out of seclusion did Venerable Xunling react. Zhou Yun had only broken through to the late-stage foundation establishment and not the golden core stage!
“The momentum of breaking through to the late-stage foundation establishment is several times stronger than when others break through to the golden core stage. Zhou Yun, could it be that your body’s strength has already far surpassed that of other cultivators?” As he looked at Zhou Yun, it was as if he could see through Zhou Yun’s clothes and see through his entire body. He was constantly trying to determine Zhou Yun’s true strength!
Zhou Yun felt his body turn cold. It was as if he had been seen through!
This was a feeling that he only had when he was with Xin Yu and his soul was seen through by her!
However, unlike Xin Yu, Venerable Xunling had directly examined his entire body! It was as if the secret technique or cultivation technique he was cultivating was displayed in front of him!
“He’s only in the late-stage foundation establishment!” Ling Qingyun couldn’t believe it. She looked at Zhou Yun. From what she could sense, Zhou Yun was now extremely powerful. Even she didn’t have a ten percent chance of winning against him. Such a powerful Zhou Yun was only in the late-stage foundation establishment!
Ling Qingyun sighed in her heart. One had to know that she was the head of the five upright sects! A late-stage golden core cultivator! She was one of the top three powerful cultivators in the world. Now, she was actually outdone by a disciple in the late-stage foundation establishment.
For a moment, Ling Qingyun felt as if she had been abandoned by the times.
“Late-stage foundation establishment.” Qiao’er was also stunned, and her mouth was slightly open as if she was lost in thought. Only when Zhou Yun patted her head did she come back to her senses with a smile.
“That’s right, Venerable Xunling. When I was breaking through to the late-stage foundation establishment, I had some good fortune.” Zhou Yun admitted.
“However, compared to this… Venerable Xunling, I have something to ask you!” Zhou Yun said.
