The Break Through
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, Ling Qingyun finally asked the question that had been on his mind.
“What’s going on?”
The elders present were also puzzled. Why did they start fighting as soon as they came out?
However, when they looked at Zhou Yun, their eyes widened.
Tenth layer of Qi cultivation?
The legendary realm?
Although the elders had not broken through to tenth layer of Qi cultivation before, they had learned how to distinguish between tenth and ninth layer from the experience and books passed down by the seniors.
Although they could not believe their eyes, there was no doubt that Zhou Yun had really broken through to the tenth layer of Qi cultivation stage.
One had to know that no one had broken through to tenth layer of Qi cultivation for countless years. They even unanimously thought that this was a legend.
The Grand Elder recovered from the shock and looked at Elder Zuo proudly. Elder Zuo stared at Meng Fei’ang and snorted.
“Sect Leader, they bullied Little Junior Sister Qiao’er in the secret realm, and they even wanted to kill me!”
Zhou Yun’s words had ignited the fury of all the elders present!
Qiao’er was a treasure in the hearts of all the elders, and they couldn’t wait to protect her. If Qiao’er didn’t insist on participating in this trial, they wouldn’t have allowed her to participate.
They all looked at Qiao’er’s body and saw that her clothes were torn in many places, and there were even wounds in some places.
Just by looking at it, the elders’ hearts ached!
They all turned to look at the group of inner disciples, the anger in their eyes were evident.
The inner court disciple looked at the elders who were glaring at him and his body trembled unconsciously. He was obviously feeling guilty.
The sect leader was even angrier. Other than Qiao’er’s matter, the second matter that Zhou Yun had mentioned made him even angrier. He had personally set the rule before entering the secret realm that they were not to kill each other. In the end, this group of people had actually chased them out of the secret realm?
A sharp glint flashed across Ling Qingyun’s eyes. They had ignored his orders!
“It’s not like this! Zhou Yun is lying!”
“That’s right, it was Zhou Yun who snatched the spiritual beast that we fought so hard to obtain from the late of foundation establishment stage spiritual beast. He even fed it to Qiao’er in front of us!”
“That’s right, that was originally meant to help Big Senior Brother advance to tenth layer of Qi cultivation. In the end, it was snatched away by him just like that and even fed to Qiao’er!”
“Zhou Yun has gone over the line. We were fighting the spiritual beasts on the shore of the Spirit-cleansing pond while he was resting underwater. When we finished fighting and our spiritual Qi was almost depleted, he suddenly came up and snatched the Spirit-cleansing Liquid. We chased after him because we were angry!”
After hearing Zhou Yun’s words, all the inner sect disciples present began to cry out in pain and injustice.
When the elders heard the words of the inner sect disciples, they were stunned by Zhou Yun’s actions!
How as he able to pull something like that off?
No wonder this group of people wanted to fight Zhou Yun to the death!
If they were in the same shoes, they would also be so angry that they would fight Zhou Yun to the death!
Hearing everyone’s complaints, Ling Qingyun felt that there was something unusual in their words.
“Zhou Yun, how did you advance to the tenth layer of Qi cultivation?”
The moment Ling Qingyun’s words left his mouth, the inner sect disciples were all stunned.
Zhou Yun was at the tenth layer?
How was that possible?
He had already fed the Spirit-cleansing Liquid to Qiao’er, so how could he still advance to the tenth layer?
Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, Zhou Yun slowly spoke.
“I have absorbed some Spirit-cleansing Essence from the bottom of the Spirit-cleansing Pond!”
“Spirit-cleansing Essence?” Ling Qingyun and the other elders were slightly shocked. “No wonder!”
None of them had expected that in this era where spiritual Qi was scarce, there would still be something like the Spirit-cleansing Essence. After hearing Zhou Yun’s words, they were all envious of Zhou Yun’s good luck. The effects of the Spirit-cleansing Essence were much better than the Spirit-cleansing Liquid.
“It’s said that the Spirit-cleansing Essence can awaken the Divine Sense. Have you awakened it?”
Zhou Yun hurriedly greeted Sir Pill. “It’s awakened!”
After Qiao’er heard Zhou Yun’s words, she recalled the scene where the two of them were underwater, and she could not help but blush.
After everything had been sorted out, the elders were relieved. In general, the secret realm trial was a success. After all, a tenth layer of Qi cultivation cultivator was born. There was hope for the future of the sect.
At the thought of this, the elders present congratulated Zhou Yun one after another, and told him not to be arrogant and complacent, and to cultivate diligently.
Meng Fei’ang looked at the happy and harmonious scene in front of him and felt that the world was cold. Was he going to let go of the matter of his Spirit-cleansing Liquid being stolen?
He wasn’t going to let things go that easily!
He needed an explanation and an answer!
Then, he glared at Zhou Yun and asked with grief and indignation. “Since you’ve already broken through to the tenth layer of Qi establishment stage, why did you still want to snatch my Spirit-cleansing Liquid?”
Zhou Yun was taken aback by Meng Fei’ang’s question. Their conflict was only because he had blocked Meng Fei’ang’s way, or because Meng Fei’ang was jealous of him becoming a glory disciple, but there was no way to explain it. If he continued to use the topic of them bullying Qiao’er, it would probably cause the elders to be dissatisfied.
“Answer me! Do you have an answer?” Seeing Zhou Yun was stunned expression, Meng Fei’ang pressed on, not giving him a chance to think.
Zhou Yun had no choice but to drag his Senior Sister down with him. “Who asked you to be so jealous? Big Senior Sister and I are innocent. Big Senior Sister only took care of me because my realm is low, but you don’t like it and target me everywhere! Is there anyone like you?”
It just so happened that Big Senior Sister Su Wanyi was also present. After hearing Zhou Yun’s words, her brows immediately furrowed. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the usually gentle Big Senior Sister was angry for the first time!
She walked up to Meng Fei’ang. “The relationship between you and me is only that of senior sister and junior brother, not the kind of relationship you think it is. There will be no such relationship now or in the future. Please don’t fantasize about this in the future!”
Her words were no longer as gentle as before, and were instead stern and guarded. Meng Fei’ang was stunned when he heard this. He had thought that Su Wanyi liked him, but she didn’t dare to say it because of her identity.
Originally, he thought that as long as he broke through to the tenth layer of Qi cultivation stage, he would take the initiative to mention the matter of being cultivation companion s and Su Wanyi would definitely agree. However, everything in front of him and the voice in his ears told him that all of this was just his fantasy.
Meng Fei’ang felt like his world had collapsed.
“I’m sorry, Junior Brother. I didn’t expect you to suffer so much because of me!” Su Wanyi’s voice became gentle again, but she was speaking to Zhou Yun.
“Ah! I’m going to kill you! I will kill you, Zhou Yun, it’s all because of you! I’m going to kill you!” When Meng Fei’ang came back to his senses, he felt as if his heart had been split in half. His mind was blank. He didn’t know what to do other than shout to kill Zhou Yun.
A moment later, Meng Fei-ang was taken away by Elder Zuo, and the secret realm trial was over.
“Alright, this secret realm trial has ended successfully. Everyone can leave now!”
After Ling Qingyun announced the end of the trial, he immediately called Zhou Yun to his side.
“After we return, I will arrange for you to break through to the foundation establishment stage!”
