There were two types of phenomena in the cultivation world. One was more common – a baby benefiting from having a powerful father or mother. They would be born blessed, having a higher starting point than others.
The other type was rather rare – a mother benefiting from the baby.
Even if the mother’s talent and cultivation weren’t exceptional, the sacred fetus would grant her more power as it grows.
This was the situation with Long Luofu. Of course, this was naturally a good thing.
However, if the mother couldn’t control the sudden boost, then it could become a disaster.
Feiyun taught her a top merit law so that she could control this new power. After teaching her the fundamentals, he left at ease.
He still hasn’t given up on the Yang Soul Holy Embryo so he went to find the sisters again. This was fruitless since they didn’t relent. He had no choice but to give up.
“If it’s not meant to be, there’s no need to force it.” He became different after reaching the seventh level.
He wanted to fight Yiyi again since both of them were in the same level now. Few could reach the seventh level.
H wanted to know if his Immortal Phoenix Physique and Golden Silkworm Scripture were stronger than her Heart Meditation Sword Scripture and Earth’s End Dao.
She had the Earth’s End Step while he had Swift Samsara.
Her sword technique was impeccable but he had the Tribulation Break.
In his previous life, Shui Yueting killed him with the sword scripture, breaking through his phoenix physique with an ambush. That thrust contained zero mercy.
He didn’t have the chance to actually experience it before dying.
Amidst his rumination, he found himself being next to the ocean.
Bright moon and auspicious red clouds. The reflection of the moon looked like silver scales, gently swaying to the current.
He walked on the water as if it was land. Each step created a lotus flower.
This was because the Buddhist affinity in the world could sense his pure power. It gathered and materialized in the form of a lotus.
After countless steps, he reached an island. There, a lady in white embracing a sword stood in waiting.
“I knew you would come.” The flawless woman said.
“I want to witness your strongest sword.” When he stopped, the waves beneath him turned into a holy Buddha.
She shook her head in response: “The sword scripture uses the heart for control. Using the stronger slash will expend all of my will and power, meaning that my heart will die.”
“The heart will die after the strongest slash?” He murmured.
He raised his hand and created a cosmo within. Peaks turned into mountains and lakes turned into oceans.
This was the Cosmic Seal, a technique from the third diagram of the silkworm scripture. He had fused three million different techniques together to create this cosmo.
Though it hasn’t reached the primeval state, it was still immensely destructive.
“One thought, destruction.” She closed her eyes. The sword on her back floated up in the air and created an illumination moon.
“Boom!” Both the cosmo and the moon shattered.
The battle didn’t continue because Feiyun lost interest due to her comment about dying after using the strongest slash.
At the first glimmer of dawn, he left the island after speaking: “I’ll fight you at another time.”
His mind was distracted by the comment so his chance of winning became rather low. He meditated for two days before calming down.
Since he has been in the kingdom for several days, he was afraid that the others would notice his puppet.
Thus, he left the pathway and noticed something different. There was another person in his room while his puppet has been reduced to dust.
This person’s back was rather beautiful. She sat next to the window lattice while wearing a violet robe.
Liu Suzi played with her fan as she spoke in an aggressive tone: “You’ve finally come out.”
Feiyun put away the Buddha. Since she didn’t destroy it, it showed that her personality wasn’t too rotten.
“You’ve passed the test, able to see through my puppet right away. Impressive.” He smiled.
“I want to know where Yiyi is right now.” She had an unprecedented expression. Her aura seemingly froze the room.
“You’re talking about Aquamoon Saintess?” Feiyun played dumb.
“Who else but her?”
“Haha, then you’re asking the wrong person. Aquamoon Saintess is an elusive dragon, how would I know where she is? Aren’t you good friends? You should know where she is more than me.” He sat down and wasn’t afraid of being exposed.
And so what if he was exposed? The saintess chose to stay in the kingdom of her own volition.
Liu Suzi’s cultivation has reached the sixth level. Her pressure was immense; most youths would be crushed by now.
This was due to the altar giving her a strand of power from an immemorial god, helping her finish the sixth rebirth. She probably benefited more than just this.
There might be an accumulation of power still hidden inside her. Its activation would be explosive.
This was the privilege of a princess; others never got to enjoy such treatment.
She looked rather confused since she had absolute confidence in Yiyi’s cultivation. She didn’t think that this half-demon could even damage Yiyi’s hair.
However, the last time she saw Yiyi, Yiyi said that she was going to see the half-demon. From then on, Yiyi didn’t show up again nor did she respond to any talisman.
Thus, she thought that something had gone awry and went to find Feiyun.
“You haven’t seen her?” She furrowed her brows.
“Just once a month ago. Did something happen?” He pretended to be slightly startled.
Her brows furrowed even more: “Don’t jinx her. Yiyi’s cultivation is beyond your imagination. Only the lords of the last generation have a chance against her. It’s just that… she has been gone for almost a month and the last person she saw is you.”
“She probably returned to Aquamoon.”
“She would have left a message behind for me.” She shook her head.
“How strange.” He stroked his chin and said: “Don’t worry, she’s the saintess of Aquamoon. Only demons dare to attack her, no one else.”
“Demons!” Her expression slightly changed and she hurriedly left the room.
He chuckled and didn’t worry about this matter. He began to consolidate his cultivation once more.
In the next few days, the residence became more lively with powerful cultivators arriving. The majority were geniuses from all over the territory.
Each realm sent its top geniuses. A few powerful realms sent a dozen or so while the weaker only chose one as their representative.
Older experts also came. These old men were lords of their region and commanded respect.
A notable genius was an arrogant youth from Mo Domain, Mo Hen. He challenged everyone and showed off his immense power.
“The Mo hid him well, that’s one of the thirty-six antiquity clans for you. Such a powerful successor.”
“Right, I’ve never heard of him before.”
“I believe the clan sent him to Capital Mountain to train. He only got back recently.”
“I see, a disciple from Capital Mountain, no wonder why he’s so arrogant. He’s actually stronger than Eighth from the Gu.”
Another young lady revealed her talent. Though she tried to keep a low profile, a genius from another antiquity clan wanted to court her. He pushed the issue and was sent flying by her long hair.
Later on, people found out that she was a daughter of Water Domain and a member of Lifeless Palace. She was currently its celestial maiden.
Feiyun was reading a scroll while enjoying the view from a cliff. He saw ships and people flying in the air and took a deep breath: “Looks like it’s about time to depart.”
