Chapter 43 Vina is shocked: Liu Yuan has become this strong?
The bloodstains on the training ground had long been washed away.
That sparring match that shocked the entire sect gradually settled into a topic of conversation among the disciples over tea and after meals, and also became the driving force that supported their crazy cultivation.
Liu Yuan did not become complacent after defeating Long Aotian.
He knew that although Long Aotian had lost, it was because of the unreasonable recovery ability of the "Indestructible Body" and the explosive power of the "Three Rings Ten Thousand Years".
In terms of the purity of soul power and the refinement of one's own martial soul, Long Aotian still has much to teach him.
He still needs to humbly cultivate himself.
Thus, a peculiar phenomenon appeared in the Body Sect.
Every day at the crack of dawn, Liu Yuan would appear precisely at the waterfall behind the mountain, using the heavy water to cleanse his body and circulate the secret technique given to him by the Poison Undying.
At the same time, Long Aotian will also appear on the boulder not far away, perhaps even more recklessly than usual.
Long Aotian, who was originally somewhat arrogant, completely turned his grief and indignation into motivation after losing to Liu Yuan.
He showed no signs of dejection; on the contrary, he became even more taciturn than before, devoting every minute to honing his soul power.
This silent competition quickly generated two extremely terrifying energies.
One month later.
Inside the secret chamber in the back mountain, a thick, dark golden soul energy fluctuation emanated from the doorway. Long Aotian slowly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh. Level 48.
In just one month, under immense psychological pressure, he broke through again, taking another step closer to the level 50 Soul King realm.
Upon learning this news, Du Busi showed a rare expression of relief.
He was originally worried that the previous defeat would shatter Long Aotian's Dao heart, but he did not expect that this battle would become the fuse for Long Aotian to break out of his cocoon and become a butterfly.
This is something he would very much like to see.
Meanwhile, fluctuations of soul power breakthrough were also emanating from Liu Yuan's residence.
Level 36.
Compared to Long Aotian's arduous journey to the level 40 threshold, Liu Yuan's advancement speed at level 30 remained at a breathtaking pace.
Advancing one level in twenty days is an absolute prodigy anywhere.
Therefore, when the news of Liu Yuan's breakthrough spread throughout the sect, Chen Lu, Gu Tong, and the others had gone from being "shocked" to being "numb."
"What's the point of practicing anymore? No matter how much you practice, you'll never catch up with Senior Brother Liu."
Although Chen Lu complained, his body betrayed him as he jumped into the iron tub used for the medicinal bath, gritting his teeth and enduring the excruciating pain of the medicine.
Under this atmosphere of "what the superiors do, the subordinates follow," all the disciples of the Body Sect were like wound-up springs, and their cultivation intensity generally increased by more than 30%.
No one wants to be left far behind by that "senior brother" who has been in the sect for less than a year.
The Body Sect is "sweeping" up at an unprecedented speed.
...
On this day, two old friends arrived at the perpetually closed gates of the Body Sect.
Princess Vina took off her gorgeous court dress and put on a smart, tight-fitting outfit. Because she often cultivated her soul power, her skin had a healthy rosy glow.
"Princess, since you left the palace, you have smiled more these past two days than you have in the past few months combined."
Mu Xue, who was standing to one side, couldn't help but complain.
She watched Vina's light and quick steps and shook her head helplessly.
Vina turned her head, her face beaming with a smile: "Muxue, the palace is so boring. Every day you wake up to all this scheming and power struggles. How can it compare to the carefree life of a Soul Master? Here, strength is strength, and weakness is weakness. There are no more twists and turns."
She gazed at the familiar, towering buildings of the Body Sect, a hint of anticipation in her eyes: "Several months have passed since we parted ways. I wonder how everyone is doing. Especially that guy Liu Yuan, I wonder how much stronger he's become."
The two quickly passed the identity verification and entered the sect.
However, as soon as she stepped inside the sect, Vina keenly sensed that something was wrong.
The disciples who used to joke with each other and occasionally slack off on the road were all nowhere to be seen.
Looking around, whether in the square or along the forest path, everywhere you look there are practitioners shouting loudly and sweating profusely.
Vina finally managed to intercept Gu Tong and Chen Lu on their way to the cafeteria, only to find that both of them had dark circles under their eyes, but were frighteningly excited.
"What's wrong with you two? I've never seen you this diligent before!" Vina looked at the two of them in shock and couldn't help but ask.
Chen Lu wiped his sweat and said with a bitter face, "Vina, you've finally arrived. Alas, there's nothing I can do. Ever since Senior Brother Liu Yuan defeated Senior Brother Long on the arena a while ago, the entire sect has gone crazy. The sect leader has declared that anyone who slacks off again will be thrown into the Poison Dragon Pit to feed the worms."
"Wait, what did you say?" Vina's smile froze. She picked at her ear and asked incredulously, "Liu Yuan... defeated Long Aotian? Are you kidding me? He's only at the third ring, right?"
Gu Tong, who was standing to the side, sighed and chimed in, "Vina, how could we dare to joke about something like this?"
"Senior Brother Liu Yuan went to the far north and brought back a black third spirit ring. That's right, it's ten thousand years old."
"He defeated Senior Brother Long, who was at level 47, on the arena in front of the entire sect. Now, among all the younger generation in the sect, he is the strongest."
Chen Lu continued to add insult to injury: "He's level 36 now. You know, he's the same age as you, but his strength... let's not talk about strength, it'll hurt his pride."
Vina and Muxue exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
The Three Rings will last forever.
He defeated Long Aotian, who was at the fourth level, despite being of a higher level.
Vina had thought that Liu Yuan's improvement was already quite significant, but now it seemed that Liu Yuan's improvement rate was even more outrageous than she had anticipated.
"This guy is still as perverted as ever..." Vina muttered to herself, her curiosity about Liu Yuan gradually turning into a strange sense of awe.
Chen Lu glanced at the luggage behind Vina and asked, "Vina, how long are you staying this time? We finally managed to get together, how about we have a get-together tonight?"
Vina shrugged helplessly and sighed, "A life of toil. I didn't come back simply to cultivate; I came with a royal mission entrusted to me by my father. I'll probably have to leave in a few days after we finish our business."
Without further delay, she waved goodbye to Chen Lu and the others, and headed straight for the sect leader's main hall at the top of the mountain.
Half an hour later, in the sect leader's main hall, Du Busi's powerful and somewhat authoritative voice resonated through his soul power, precisely reaching the ears of all the core disciples.
"Liu Yuan, Long Aotian, Chen Lu, Wang Yanfeng, Gu Tong, assemble in the main hall immediately!"
The figures who were practicing diligently in various places stopped immediately upon hearing the command, transforming into streaks of different colors and swiftly flying towards the main hall.
