Chapter 8: Great Breakthrough!

“Breathe—breathe—”

Shen Ran, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed and entering a cultivation state, kept heaving his chest.

Two thick white streams of air, like flood dragons, kept flickering between his mouth and nose.

With the enhancement of the Blood Cloud Powder, Shen Ran’s terrifying cultivation speed actually increased by more than 10 times.

His body seemed to have transformed into a bottomless black hole that devoured the surrounding spiritual energy at an unimaginable speed.

Around his residence, the other servant disciples who were also cultivating within a 10-mile radius sensed that the spiritual energy in the air was rapidly thinning.

They all guessed that the spiritual energy supply in the sect had decreased again.

After all, such things had happened before.

However, no one would think that spiritual energy was scarce because someone was cultivating at that moment.

After all, the surrounding disciples were not talented.

Even ordinary disciples with much stronger talent could not cause such a situation if they cultivated here.

A huge amount of spiritual energy surged into Shen Ran’s body without stopping.

It penetrated deep into his limbs and bones, and his internal organs, swam along his meridians, strengthening his body at an unbelievable speed.

......

It could be said that Shen Ran’s body was getting stronger every second.

His cultivation realm also rose at a rocket-like speed.

Eighth level of Qi Refinement!

Ninth level of Qi Refinement!

Tenth level of Qi Refinement!

Perfected Qi Refinement!

The enhancement brought by the Blood Cloud Powder in his body finally burned away.

Shen Ran slowly opened his eyes.

“Buzz!”

Two thick golden pillars of light shot into the sky from his eyes.

The space shook with it.

In his body, golden runes flickered on more than 300 bones, emitting terrifying power.

A dignity that belonged to the Nine Heavens Supremacy spread out from him.

On the Ninth Summit, all the disciples who were still sleeping suddenly woke up when they sensed the aura of the Supreme Bones.

They were puzzled by the instinctive desire to kowtow to the servant disciples’ residential area.

“Phew—”

Shen Ran let out a long breath and looked helpless.

The spiritual energy he had just absorbed was probably enough for a thousand people to break through to the Divine Sea Realm.

However, half of the spiritual energy he absorbed was divided between the Pangu Sacred Body, the Ancient Immortal Eyes, and the Supreme Bones.

The other half was infinitely compressed and purified by the Heavenly Spirit Root. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

He had just advanced from the seventh level of Qi Refinement to the perfected Qi Refinement Realm. He was only a step away from breaking through to the Divine Sea Realm.

However, Shen Ran sensed that the spiritual energy in his dantian had already been purified and compressed into a liquid state.

Any drop of liquid spiritual energy could match the full cultivation of an ordinary perfected Qi Refinement cultivator.

In addition, his Pangu Sacred Body had also been strengthened.

With his well-proportioned muscles, he could feel an explosive strength in any movement.

Shen Ran estimated that his current strength was more than 10,000 catties. He could kill a cultivator at the perfected Qi Refinement Realm or even the Divine Sea Realm.

Therefore, although his realm seemed to be only at the perfected Qi Refinement Realm on the surface, his actual combat strength was far beyond that!

He stood up and stretched.

All the bones in his body crackled like fried beans.

“Awesome!”

The pleasure of increasing his strength made Shen Ran feel very wonderful.

He had not slept all night, but he was very energetic.

He pushed open the door and walked out of his residence. The sky was already slightly bright.

Shen Ran breathed in the cool morning air and felt that the future was full of hope.

“Plop!”

At this moment, Old Xu, who had not returned all night, walked over with a mouthful of big yellow teeth. Before he could greet Shen Ran, he knelt down.

Shen Ran quickly helped Old Xu up. When he smelled the alcohol on him, he couldn’t help but frown. “How much did you drink last night?” ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛o𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

Old Xu scratched his head in confusion. “I didn’t drink much. It was not even half of my usual amount. Why am I feeling wobbly and kneeling down? It’s really strange!”

Looking at Shen Ran, Old Xu felt that the current him was already different from when they first met yesterday.

But he couldn’t tell exactly what was different.

“Why are you looking at me like that? I’m not interested in men.” Shen Ran felt goosebumps from Old Xu’s stare.

“Get lost! You make it sound like I’m interested in men!” Old Xu hurriedly stood up straight and yawned. “I’m going to catch up on my sleep. Remember to go to the servant quarters to receive your mission today. The servant disciples have to take on servant missions every day. If they don’t complete it for three days in a row, they will be expelled from the sect. Don’t forget that.”

“Don’t you have to accept missions?” Shen Ran looked at Old Xu who was walking towards his residence. He couldn’t help but be curious.

“Do you think I went to have fun last night? I went to complete a mission! However, not everyone can accept this mission of mine. You have to be as old as me. Alright, stop disturbing me and go take the mission.”

With that, Old Xu slammed the door of the residence.

Before long, the snoring inside the door began.

I wonder which ordinary disciple will issue a mission to let a servant disciple drink with him. Could he be an old drunkard like Old Xu?

Shaking his head, Shen Ran walked towards the servant office.

The first task of the servant disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect was to serve the ordinary disciples of the sect.

Every day, the ordinary disciples would assign various chores, such as washing clothes, cleaning the rooms, irrigating the spiritual fields, and so on.

The servant disciples, who were not talented in cultivation, only had time to cultivate after completing a servant mission every day.

The path of cultivation was uncertain. They still had to spend time dealing with chores. This was why the servant disciples would leave the sect, one after another.

Unfortunately, as a servant disciple, Shen Ran had to accept servant missions every day if he wanted to continue staying in the Empyrean Sword Sect.

“Your Highness Dao Seed, after our thorough investigation, we have compiled a list of everyone who appeared in the Grand Myriad Mountains yesterday. Please take a look.”

After receiving the list from his subordinate, Wang Qingxuan’s expression was very ugly.

His two subordinates were killed in the Grand Myriad Mountains.

The Blood Cloud Powder that he had been cultivating this month had also disappeared!

This meant that his cultivation progress would slow down significantly in the next month.

If news of his followers carrying the Demon Blood Cloud Powder spread, his identity as a spy from the Demon Cult would also be exposed.

However, this matter could not be reported to the sect.

If he let the people from the Empyrean Sword Sect get involved in this matter, his undercover identity would definitely be exposed.

Therefore, Wang Qingxuan secretly got his subordinate to compile this list.

Glancing at the list, Wang Qingxuan read out a few names. “Empyrean Sword Sect, Luo Hao, fourth level of the Divine Sea Realm.

Icy Mysterious Zither Sect, Zhu Wanqing, seventh level Divine Sea Realm.

Asura Sect, Yan Ao, second level of the Divine Sea Realm.

Beast Taming Mountain, Chen Wushuang, sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm.

Note down these names and the sect they belong to. I want to visit them one by one!”

Wang Qingxuan instructed his subordinates.

The few names he read out were people who were good enough to kill his two sidekicks.

Those whose strength was lower than the seventh level of Qi Refinement, including Shen Ran, were not his suspects for the time being.

As for the people he was targeting, Wang Qingxuan’s plan was to attack them first so that they would never be able to speak!

Only the dead keep secrets forever.

As for the reason? They had offended the Empyrean Sword Sect’s Dao Seed and were sentenced to death!
