Chapter 445: Chapter 451: Is this kid trying to reach the sky? (Part 1)
The Shangyuan Ancient Scripture practiced by Yang Zhen was just a spiritual level cultivation method, and it was only because of a lucky coincidence that Yang Zhen managed to enhance the quality of the Shangyuan Scripture.
However, the highest quality Shangyuan Ancient Scripture was also just a spiritual level cultivation method. Yang Zhen had once tried to comprehend it, wanting to upgrade its quality, but it came to no fruition in the end.
It wasn’t that Yang Zhen lacked talent, but the limitations of the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture restricted the realization of Yang Zhen’s talent.
If Yang Zhen cultivated to the Great Saint Realm, he could perhaps upgrade the quality of the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture. However, on one hand, the upgraded Shangyuan Ancient Scripture would be totally unrecognizable, no longer the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture, and on the other hand, having cultivated to the Great Saint Realm, why would Yang Zhen bother to upgrade the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture further? Was he nostalgic?
The Shangyan Ancient Scripture was different. It was a cultivation method created by Emperor Shangyan, and it had tremendous potential for advancement, given where the Emperor’s realm stood.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and entered into a state of comprehension. This was the advantage of having explosively high talent— he could comprehend whenever he wanted and enter that state instantly.
This comprehension lasted for three days!
Three days later, the mischievous cat, bored out of its mind, asked the cocky chicken to guard Yang Zhen. After that, he sneaked into the kitchen of Ink Pool Peak intending to get a bite to eat.
No sooner had the mischievous cat entered the kitchen, still yet to steal a bite of food, when he got surrounded by a large group of people.
The sudden appearance of a group of people startled the cat. He hastily turned around to escape but suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned back to look and was immediately dumbfounded: “What are you guys doing here?”
Peak Master Mo, Palace Master Liu, and Mo Xueling, as well as Elder Mo and many other elders of Ink Pool Peak were all there, staring at the cat with fervent eyes. The cat shrunk its tail between its legs under their gaze.
“Naughty cat!” Mo Xueling glared at him and bluntly asked, “That scoundrel Yang Zhen has set up so many restrictions around the cave that we can’t get in. We can only wait here for you. When will he come out?”
The mischievous cat was sheepish. He wanted to ask how they knew to wait for him here but dismissed the thought. It was a no-brainer, why ask?
Since he had been caught, the mischievous cat cleared his throat and said, “Young Master Yang will be coming out soon. He’s currently refining the Shangyan Ancient Scripture. When he finishes, he will naturally come out.”
“What?” Peak Master Mo looked shocked, an anxious expression on his face. “Why is he starting to cultivate only now? It’s said that the Shangyan Ancient Scripture is extremely complex and profound. Even if Young Master Yang is highly talented, he won’t be able to master it without a fortnight.”
Palace Master Liu also frowned, saying in a deep voice, “The Mobei Abyss is about to open. This time, there’s a change of events; many strong cultivators of the Mahayana Phase will go. We must be fully prepared. Yang Zhen’s timing for cultivation is… really too casual.”
The mischievous cat’s eyes widened in surprise. “Why would those of the Mahayana Phase join the ruckus? Do they also want to enter Mobei Abyss?”
“It’s all because of that guy Yang Zhen’s loose tongue!” Mo Xueling sneered, “He blurted out that there is an Emperor’s inheritance in Mobei Abyss. Now everyone in the Northern Island knows it. It would be strange if those strong cultivators didn’t go.”
Hearing this, the mischievous cat couldn’t help but snicker, “Now things are going to be interesting. Oh, that’s probably why Young Master Yang is cultivating at this moment. He must have already known that strong cultivators from the Mahayana Phase would go. This little guy sure digs deep holes! It is truly terrifying, truly terrifying!”
“You mean…” Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo turned pale, looking at the cat in surprise. “You mean Yang Zhen foresaw that strong cultivators from the Mahayana Phase would be going?”
“Absolutely, no doubt about it!” The mischievous cat shrugged, “Dammit, things are heating up now. With the cultivators from the Mahayana Phase entering the Mobei Abyss, if there truly are treasures inside, there will certainly be a fight. I need to rush back and get Young Master to craft me a couple more sets of Black Panther Battle Armor right away.”
Saying this, the mischievous cat turned to leave, ignoring his original plan to grab some food.
Mo Xueling pulled the Scoundrel Cat to a stop, saying, “What’s the point of you going back now? Yang Zhen is already in seclusion for cultivation. Isn’t this time not suitable to disturb him?”
As she spoke, Mo Xueling was stomping her foot in frustration. “This guy Yang Zhen, why did he have to cultivate at this time? Moreover, he is cultivating a completely new cultivation method. With his talent, isn’t he definitely going to enter deep comprehension? Then… when will he be able to wake up? By the time he recovers from cultivation, the expedition to the Mobei Abyss might have already ended.”
The Scoundrel Cat looked strangely at Mo Xueling’s constantly changing expressions and snorted. “Little girl, you probably have no idea just how abnormal Yang Zhen’s talent is. It’s just a Shangyan Ancient Scripture, isn’t it? If the kid wants to cultivate it, it won’t take him more than a few minutes. By the time I return, the kid is probably already crafting flying equipment for the young lady and the Daoist idiot.”
Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo exchanged looks upon hearing this and smiled bitterly. “We don’t have much time to wait here. The Ke Clan, Ancient Spirit Clan, Sha Clan, and other ancient tribes, as well as the head elders of some great sects, are about to come to Ink Pool Peak for discussions regarding various matters of the Mobei Abyss expedition. Now that Yang Zhen isn’t here, what are we to do? Even with his high talent, it’s impossible for him to complete the cultivation of the new method so quickly.”
The Scoundrel Cat was about to speak when suddenly, a loud rumbling came from deep within the mountains of Ink Pool Peak. A tide-like wave of QI surged into the air, condensing into a torrent of energy in mid-air.
The celestial phenomena exploded, and the terrifying energy-enveloped half of Ink Pool Peak. Many disciples were startled and looked towards the sky with a horrified expression.
In mid-air, the energy waves rolled tumultuously as flashing thunder dragons roared, and the deafening thunder raged and dazzled the world, covering the heavens and the earth, terrifying all beings.
The Scoundrel Cat shuddered and pointed to the raging energy outside. “What did I just say? Hasn’t he succeeded now?”
“This… How could this be…”
Peak Master Mo and Palace Master Liu stared at each other, disbelief filling their eyes.
Mo Xueling’s eyes lit up. With a cry of surprise, she rushed outside. By the time she reached the open space, Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er were already waiting there.
Hua Youyue, with tranquil eyes, was looking at the terrifying celestial phenomena forming in mid-air. With a questioning look, she turned towards Han Yan’er.
Han Yan’er trembled all over, her eyes fixed on the raging waves in the sky. She slowly fell into a state of enlightenment, startling the arriving Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo.
“Enlightenment?”
Peak Master Mo let out in a low voice, quickly silenced himself, and muttered in shock. “Why is every person related to Yang Zhen such a freak? Are they not going to let others live?”
Seeing Peak Master Mo utter such words, Palace Master Liu could not help but laugh. “Brother Mo, you’ll get used to it!”
“But the question is, how can I get used to it?” A look of confusion flashed across Peak Master Mo’s face as he looked at Han Yan’er. “Just by observing the celestial phenomena caused by Yang Zhen’s cultivation, she could enter a state of enlightenment. This Daoist idiot is really living up to her name.”
Even Hua Youyue looked moved after seeing Han Yan’er enter enlightenment again. She turned to Peak Master Mo and said, “Peak Master Mo, the Daoist idiot might soon cross a calamity. Could you arrange for it?”
“What? Crossing a calamity?” Peak Master Mo’s face turned pale. He quickly said, “I’ll arrange for a Daoist field immediately!”
“No!” Hua Youyue shook her head, her expression gradually relaxed. She turned to look at the raging vortex forming in the sky and said, “Two Daoist fields!”
Peak Master Mo was taken aback, staring in puzzlement at Hua Youyue. The Scoundrel Cat nearby clicked his tongue in surprise. “Damn, another calamity? Is this kid trying to ascend to heaven?”
