Chapter 979 Mysterious Realm
??*Rumble... Rumble...*
As time passed, the rumbling in the sky became louder, and the lightning that continued to strike there also became more intense, as if the heavens were venting their anger, especially since they had repeatedly failed to kill Ling Yun. This time, they also didn't have the chance to do so, especially since he was only trying to break through one minor stage.
*Zap... Zap...*
A huge white lightning dragon swooped down towards Ling Yun and struck his body, but his expression remained unchanged, as it simply tickled him; his lightning soul and core immediately absorbed it.
*Rumble... Rumble...*
Ling Xi, who was looking up at the sky with a mocking smile, suddenly raised her eyebrows, but Zhou Yu immediately told her. "I asked our old friend to come here, especially since his private realm is not far from this realm, and he can help Ling Yun increase his soul power."
"I see." Ling Xi nodded in understanding, but she ignored Hun Lingwang, who had just landed in front of them.
"Haha." Hun Lingwang laughed wryly before speaking to Ling Xi. "Hey, Luxuria! That incident has passed so long ago, but you still haven't forgotten your anger towards me. Your mistake shattered your first love's soul, leaving me powerless to save him back then. Otherwise, I would have saved him, and you wouldn't be angry like this."
Ling Xi actually realized the truth behind Hun Lingwang's words, but she still couldn't forget the events of that day, which made her regret it for the rest of her life.
Ling Xi's reaction made Hun Lingwang helplessly sigh, and he then looked at Ling Yun before speaking again. "Moreover, you've found a much better replacement, and you're even willing to break our race's taboos for his sake, so you should be able to put the troubles of the past behind you."
"Can you help Ling Yun improve his soul power?" Zhou Yu asked Hun Lingwang.
"Hey, I am the soul spirit, and my abilities are related to the soul, remember?" Hun Lingwang then walked over to Ling Yun without paying attention to the white lightning dragon descending from the sky. "However, this kid is different from other cultivators, especially since he has ten qi souls. However, I won't be able to do it all at once, and I have to strengthen them one by one, or all his souls will become unstable."
Zhou Yu nodded in understanding before asking Ling Xi. "Big Sis, which soul do you believe requires strengthening first?"
lights??v?l ??m "His lightning soul." Ling Xi decided without hesitation. "After all, his lightning soul is still much weaker compared to his devil soul, and he will soon break through to the lower venerated realm, so it is the best choice for the current him."
"You're still as thoughtful as ever, huh, Luxuria." Hun Lingwang, in a playful tone, spoke to Ling Xi, causing her to snort. He then extended his finger towards Ling Yun's lightning soul. "Hey, just think of this as atonement for my past mistakes toward you, so I hope you can forget about that matter, okay?"
After he said that, Hun Linwang looked up at the sky, or rather at the white lightning dragon that was about to attack Ling Yun.
*Zap... Zap...*
After it hit his body, Hun Linwag took out several items that instantly surrounded Ling Yun's lightning soul, and he injected his qi into those items, making them glow.
However, Ling Yun's lightning soul struggled to get away from them, but Hun Lingwang immediately restricted his movements and spoke to calm him down. "Hey, don't resist them; they will make you stronger, so you can help him face his other lightning tribulations in the future."
When he heard that, Ling Yun's lightning soul stopped struggling and allowed those items to enter his body, turning his expression into excitement as he began to experience their benefits.
"That's right, absorb them, especially since there are still many white lightning dragons that will attack him, and you can use them to become stronger faster." With a satisfied smile, Hun Lingwang noticed that Ling Yun's lightning soul had absorbed the benefits of those items more quickly, and he then turned to Zhou Yu. "Is your information about Jing Shen really true?"
"Have I ever lied to you?" Hun Lingwang softly sighed and shook his head, to which Zhou Yu responded. "Jing Shen is very cunning, and our emperor trusts him too much. However, the situation has now changed as Lu Yi has dispatched the other leaders of the nature race to hunt him down. I am optimistic that they will be able to kill him, especially since we won't be able to do so as long as Zhu Ling continues to protect him."
Hun Linwang nodded in agreement with that. "After all, Zhu Ling is our emperor, so he has control over all of us and can easily weaken or cripple us."
Not long after that, several giant white lightning dragons hurtled towards them as the heavens wanted to thwart Hun Lingwang's plan to strengthen Ling Yun's soul, which would make it even more difficult for them to kill him, so they couldn't allow him to do so.
"Hahaha." Hun Lingwang chuckled upon witnessing this, uttering a mocking statement to the sky. "Heavens of heavens, you have always been arrogant, killing many cultivators in your breakthroughs, and now you seem to have gone senile. You are currently confronting a unique individual, and your efforts to eliminate him will remain futile as long as the three prophecies persist, particularly given that he was born to fulfill them."
However, the heavens paid no heed to Hun Lingwang's words, and they continued to shower Ling Yun with many giant white lightning dragons non-stop, all of which were absorbed by his lightning soul, making him grow in size very quickly under the help of the soul spirit.

Five hours later, the sky had stopped rumbling, and the lightning had also disappeared from above, indicating the end of Ling Yun's breakthrough.
[Ding]
[You have broken through to the Peak Saint Realm.]
After the notification appeared, Ling Yun immediately returned his cores and souls to his body, opened his eyes, and spoke to Hun Lingwang. "Thank you for your help; my lightning soul is now almost as strong as my devil soul."
"There's no need to thank me, and I'm helping you just to make amends with Luxuria." Hun Lingwang replied by shaking his head. "Moreover, you still have nine souls, so my task is still not finished. However, it would be better if we left this realm, and I will help you on your way to that mysterious tower."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun did not immediately agree, and he decided to check the amount of Qi needed to break through to the Lower Venerate Realm.
===
Cultivation:
> Peak Saint Realm: 10,760,000/14,760,000
-Yang Qi: 7,640,000/14,760,000
-Yin Qi: 3,120,000/14,760,000
===
>Yin-Yang World Ring
-Qi Reserves: 3,000,000/5,000,000
===
'Sigh, I thought my reserve qi would be enough to break through, but it still wasn't enough.' Ling Yun then got up from his seat and said to them. "All right, we'll leave this realm right now and go straight to the mysterious realm."
"That's good!"
Zhou Yu then took the three of them back to the Icarus, where their party members were waiting for them, and he immediately flew the Icarus out of the realm.
After that, Ling Yun took his guest to one of the rooms, and Hun Lingwang helped him to strengthen his other nine souls, which took two full days. The most time-consuming process was when he strengthened his devil soul.
In the end, Ling Yun's devil soul remains the strongest, but his other souls are no longer as weak as before, which will be very useful when he trains in the mysterious tower.
After he finished his task, Hun Lingwang left the Icarus and returned to his realm, and Zhou Yu accelerated the flying speed of the Icarus, especially since Ling Yun was increasingly impatient to train there.
After that, Ling Yun focused on dual-cultivating with his wives and dual cultivation partners, especially since he couldn't wait to break through to the lower Venerate Realm. Unfortunately, he still lacked a million Qi, and dual cultivation was the quickest way to meet that requirement. Even so, he couldn't achieve it in a day, and he still lacked quite a lot.
On the fourth day, they finally arrived near the mysterious realm, and they could see that there were so many flying artifacts belonging to cultivators from all corners of the universe entering that realm, which made the situation there very noisy.
Aside from that, they could see a tower rising high out of that realm, and its location was right in the middle of it. However, Ling Yun felt confused seeing the size of the tower, especially since it was much smaller than he had previously imagined.
"You don't need to be confused by that." Ling Yun immediately turned to Tian Yueling. "The tower is not big from the outside, but you will be surprised by the inside. The inside is like a separate sub-realm, and each area is no less spacious than the Sky Jade Realm."
"I see." Ling Yun then said to Zhou Yu. "Find a place to land that is far from the crowd because our group is too big, and our presence will only provoke their jealousy."
