After telling his family everything he needed to say, Lu Xuan went on to train in isolation.
Even without him around to take charge of things, the fusion between the Earth Federation and the Blessed Enclave was going smoothly. The process was even speeding up at some points.
Knowing that Lu Xuan was about to leave Earth, everyone in his family did their best to accelerate the fusion between the two parties.
While Yun Ling’er was also training in isolation, Lu Shanshan and Lu Guoguo were taking charge of things on Earth and the Blessed Enclave respectively.
Outsiders were entirely oblivious to the change taking place. They simply believed that the Yunxuan Villa became a lot more concerned about the problems at hand.
Then again, nobody dared to ask about things that they did not already know.
Meanwhile, in a secret room back in Yunxuan Villa in the Blessed Enclave…
As Lu Xuan sat cross-legged on a cushion, his primordial spirit manifested behind him in the form of a golden dragon.
The scales on the golden dragon were vivid and lively.
Meanwhile, Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Aether boiled.
Now, his powers had apparently grown even further compared to when he defeated Yan Han over a year ago.
Regardless, many people still saw Lu Xuan to have been as powerful as he could have gotten back then.
He had gotten so powerful that others simply thought that he had run out of room for growth, but he still managed to make further progress without breaking through to higher levels.
In terms of power, he was currently at the peak of the first tier of the Divine Transformation Realm.
He could have actually grown further within the year, but he did not do so for the sake of polishing his foundations.
Getting his foundations more solidified meant making it easier to make progress in the future. In that case, he would be more successful in the future as well.
As such, he was not in a hurry. He spent the past year mostly guiding others in cultivation and sorting out materials and texts on cultivation, which included that of the Divine Transformation Realm as well as important points of methods concerning realms beyond that, leaving behind a comprehensive set of materials.
The culmination of his efforts ensured that his family would never be hindered by methods while having ample resources to spare.
Now, it was finally time for him to make a breakthrough.
Taking into account his accomplishments during his past life, this was his second time breaking into that realm, which was completely different from the confused state he was in when making such a breakthrough. Currently, he knew about everything there was to know.
He was able to ensure that every step that he was about to take would be perfect.
Lu Xuan was almost at the peak of the first tier of the Divine Transformation Realm, so much so that he was nearing perfection.
In terms of pure combat capacity, he was probably more than 10 times stronger than Great Ancestor Shen Jian and Great Ancestor Zhang Cheng.
Even if he never used the Auric Flower, he could have easily killed someone at the same level as he was with only a single punch.
It wasn’t difficult at all.
Having such combat prowess meant that even if the aforementioned two Great Ancestors made it to the second tier of the Divine Transformation Realm, they still would not have been able to defeat Lu Xuan. He could still make short work of them.
As his Spiritual Aether boiled, everything in his body was accelerating under the guidance of the Taixu Origin Power.
The Taixu Origin Power was the origin of everything. There was nothing too special about the Spiritual Aether that came from using this method.
That was completely different from the methods that Lu Xuan trained in back in his past life. Back then, he aimed to be a powerful fighter. As such, all the methods that he trained in were of the element of lightning. Back then, he had no other choice.
The lightning methods were one of the most orthodox ones, yet the methods that he trained in back then were obviously different from the Taixu Origin Power.
As its name suggested, the method was all about getting to the source of everything. That could’ve been chaos, which was the state everything was in it before the beginning of time. That could’ve also applied to everything in existence.
As such, this method allowed him to bring forth powers of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, lightning, wind, and many other elements.
It was just like he was training in the methods with all of those elements.
That meant that the Taixu Origin Power essentially had limitless potential. The lightning arts that Lu Xuan currently used was far stronger than when he was dedicated to training in lightning powers back in his past life.
He could’ve even trained in several different elemental traits at the time, which he had not been able to back in his past life.
The Spiritual Aether in his body went down every pathway in his body over and over. The Spiritual Aether went on to help him break into an all-new level like a massive organized army.
Everything was under his control.
10 days had passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Xuan’s Spiritual Aether continued fluctuating in the secret room. They burst like water that had just finished boiling.
Boom!
His Spiritual Aether instantly splashed all over the place like liquid mercury, but it was all pulled back the second they hit the walls.
When he opened his eyes, not a single fluctuation of Spiritual Aether remained on him. The golden dragon primordial spirit behind him was nowhere to be seen, either.
The second tier of Divine Transformation Realm.
This must’ve meant that after 10 days, he managed to make it to the second tier of the Divine Transformation Realm without much difficulty.
The golden dragon primordial spirit behind Lu Xuan had grown nearly 15 meters tall.
Despite growing by only a little more than three meters in size, the growth was nonetheless staggering. Primordial spirits at the third tier of the Divine Transformation Realm were little more than a dozen meters in size.
Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit was about that size when he was only at the first tier of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Primordial spirits were commonly found growing about three meters at every tier, with the largest ones being 30 meters tall.
That measurement itself was already deemed very extreme.
It was about nine zhang in conventional Huaxian measurement, which was considered an extreme in such cases.
The current growth rate of Lu Xuan’s primordial spirit was almost that of the fourth tier at the Divine Transformation Realm. Given that, there was no doubt that it would exceed this limit in the future.
“Despite only being at the second tier, I’m only as powerful as I was back when I was in the third tier. Common beings at the third tier of the Divine Transformation Realm probably wouldn’t have been able to take me on.”
After getting a better idea of where his combat prowess currently stood, Lu Xuan’s eyes narrowed.
That level of combat prowess didn’t even take the Auric Flower into account, which would’ve caused his powers to spike again. By then, he could’ve at least escaped from danger unscathed even when fighting against those at the fourth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm.
There were nine tiers to the realm and every tier was a massive step-up.
The difference in combat prowess at every tier was as huge as that between heaven and earth.
Lu Xuan murmured to himself, “I’d be more confident heading towards the Holy Sun Continent as I am now.”
He exited isolation as secretly as he went into it, without alerting anyone nearby.
Everyone around him had gotten used to him coming and going without making a sound. Nobody could tell when he would appear and when he would fade back into isolation.
Lu Xuan had no intentions of announcing his departure for now. After all, Yunxuan Villa would’ve still held a very intimidating presence as long as he was around.
People all over the world began to suspect that he wouldn’t show up anywhere for a while. Despite that, the more ambitious ones didn’t dare to make a move as long as they couldn’t confirm his absence.
He would be buying enough time for Yun Ling’er, Lu Tianxiang, and the others to get into the Divine Transformation Realm.
Lu Shanshan, Lu Guoguo, and some others would grow even further. Things at Yunxuan Villa would be as solid as they could be.
