Chapter 979 - 327: Celestial Tao Sect (Part 4)

The man noticed something was wrong with Wu Yixuan’s expression and paused, slightly taken aback.

"Who are you talking about?"

Wu Yixuan said, gnashing his teeth.

"Xiao Yu, didn’t you have a vendetta against him back then?" the man responded, puzzled by Wu Yixuan’s expression.

"Is this guy not dead yet?"

"Hahaha, that’s great, he’s not dead, that’s really great!"

Suddenly, Wu Yixuan burst into laughter, leaving his companions bewildered.

"By the way, I should ask big brother what happened that allowed this guy to escape from him."

Wu Yixuan stifled his laughter, contemplating inwardly.

Now, he was no longer as reckless as before; he had learned to be somewhat cautious, albeit not much.

...

Flame Martial City.

The courtyard where Lin Zheyu had lived for over three years.

Rustle rustle rustle~~~

The leaves of the large tree in the courtyard rustled in the gentle breeze.

Swish swish swish~~~

In the center of the courtyard, Lin Zheyu wielded a longsword, practicing the Seven Extremes Saber Skill. The blade sliced through the void, creating piercing, intense winds.

Huff huff huff~~

Soon after, heavy panting could be heard.

Lin Zheyu leaned on the longsword, staggering and struggling to stand in place.

Even with his considerable strength, the process of breaking through limits was still immensely difficult, and after breaking through, he would be left weakened.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called breaking through limits.

The golden Celestial Eye in the sea of consciousness burst forth with dazzling gold light, displaying numerous Tao Rhythm Patterns within its unemotional pupils.

After breaking through the limits, Essence, Qi, and Spirit energy meshed into one, and the soul’s instantaneous ascension fully fell into the golden pupils.

A few breaths later.

The soul’s ascension afterglow quickly passed.

Lin Zheyu exhaled a long breath of stale air, and with a thought, abundant Essence, Qi, and Spirit Energy surged from the three Divine Treasures.

In an instant, his weakened body returned to its peak condition.

"Extreme Skill, Version 19863..."

Lin Zheyu thought lightly.

Using the new insights gained from breaking through limits, he refined the "Extreme Skill."

This was a Cultivation Technique that Lin Zheyu created based on the insights gained during the process of breaking limits.

The goal was to allow him to bind Essence, Qi, and Spirit without laborious exercises, effortlessly enabling soul ascension into that special soul wave frequency state.

Unfortunately, after more than two years, he still couldn’t fathom the mysteries hidden within.

He couldn’t even create a Cultivation Technique that would allow him to gradually cultivate and thus master this ability.

"Failed again."

"Extreme Skill, Version 19864..."

Lin Zheyu was not discouraged, he refined it further and thought again.

The data in his consciousness flickered for a moment, but the Extreme Skill data didn’t manifest.

Lin Zheyu tried repeatedly, refining it and failing time and time again.

Until he exhausted all the inspiration gained from this limit-breaking experience, he couldn’t create this Cultivation Technique.

"Still not working."

Lin Zheyu sighed softly and stood up.

He looked at the data in his consciousness, and after seeing the source power, his face lit up with a smile.

[Heaven rewards diligence]

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source Power: 1105

Skills:

Heavenly Deceit Skill (Perfection)

Seven Extremes Blade (Fifth Layer: 73%)

Shrinking the Ground into Inches (Second Layer: 100%)

Primordial Golden Body (Fourth Layer: 100%)

"Over a thousand units of Source Power, it’s been a long time since I fought such an affluent battle."

Lin Zheyu smiled: "It’s been two years; it’s about time to figure out how to break free from these shackles."

In the past two years, he not only accumulated a large amount of Source Power but also amassed substantial insights in Arrays and Martial Dao.

"A new time-space node has appeared in the demon cave."

"It’s said that if fully opened, it could support terrifying demons at the Eight-Striped Divinity Transformation Layer entering."

"Let me try there again, maybe I can obtain stronger rule fragments."

"If it still doesn’t work, then I guess rule fragment opportunities can’t get much better than this."

Lin Zheyu murmured softly.

Over the past two years, he participated in two opportunities to seize rule fragments.

However, the harvest was not significant.

Otherwise, the Seven Extremes Blade wouldn’t still be at the Fifth Layer.

After all, these are merely opportunities for cultivators below the Golden Core level.

Previously, Lin Zheyu used Source Power to perceive rule fragments, nearly comprehending the Rule Tao Rhyme contained within.

Subsequent participation in three more didn’t enhance space rule perception much because the rule fragments contained Tao Rhyme, which wasn’t considerably more than the last time.

The content was almost redundant.

Lin Zheyu wanted to see if the quantity of Rule Tao Rhyme within rule fragments would increase with the strength of the time-space node.

Therefore, he planned to participate in the rule fragment competition this time before proceeding.

Regardless of the outcome, it was time to join Tu Mingzhen in heading to the Witch Race’s relic.

After waiting for so long, if delayed further, Tu Mingzhen might be compelled to go alone.
