Chapter 5

The Whole World Fell Silent

Upon hearing Jiang Qian’s voice, Zhou Yun turned around with a look of confusion.

Who was this person? Why did he feel like she had a deep hatred for him?

He had not offended her, had he?

Just as Zhou Yun was feeling puzzled, the other two people thought that Zhou Yun had been stunned by Jiang Qian’s words.

They hurriedly followed up with more verbal attacks.

“Zhou Yun, don’t be so stubborn. We’re doing this for your own good.”

“It’s just cleaning, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. In the future, you’ll know that we are doing this for your own good.”

“That’s right, I can’t fathom why you’re still so stubborn. If you’re not even willing to clean, then what’s the point of pursuing immortality? Do you want to get kicked out of the sect and become a mortal?”

“How can you be trusted to handle huge responsibilities when you can’t even clean a house?”

“There is no gain without pain!”

“Yeah, you might not know this, but if immortals can’t absorb spiritual Qi for a long time, their cultivation level will fall. In the end, they will really be reduced to mortals!”

“That’s right. Do you know how those big forces backed by the spiritual spring and spiritual mountain were destroyed? It’s because of the depletion of the spiritual spring. Their overall strength dropped, which resulted in their destruction.”

“Do you want to become an ordinary person? Do you want all your hard work to go to waste?”

Zhou Yun kept quiet.

The few of them kept talking and he couldn’t get in a word even if he wanted to.

Looking at the few people who persisted in their ramblings, he even had a moment of doubt.

Was he really wrong for not accepting Qin Xiu’s offer?

When he thought of this, he immediately shook his head and smiled. That had nothing to do with him.

As expected, repeated lies created the illusion of truth.

He looked indifferently at the people who were trying to persuade him.

What the hell was this? They were running their mouths even though they just learned a few things about cultivation.

These people didn’t even have a good relationship with him.

Why were they all so energetic today?

“I’m good at cultivating on my own, so you don’t have to worry about me.” Zhou Yun’s eyes narrowed as he interrupted their speeches.

“What do you mean we don’t have to worry about you? You’re really ...”

At this moment, a person emerged from the crowd.

He was the second strongest person among them. His name was Ji Ha, and he was a cultivator at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

Although there was still a big gap between his power level and Qin Xiu’s, it was more than enough to pass the outer sect disciple assessment.

When he saw Zhou Yun’s attitude, he immediately stepped forward and prepared to ridicule him. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

It had been a year and Zhou Yun still hadn’t broken through to the second layer of Qi cultivation. Why was he so stubborn?

It was just cleaning. How wronged could he feel?

Shouldn’t a cultivator at the first layer of Qi cultivation work for a cultivator who achieved the great perfection of Qi cultivation?

Ji Ha was certain that he was right. He criticized Zhou Yun as he approached the latter.

He walked up to Zhou Yun and was about to drag him outside.

Boom!

Zhou Yun’s body trembled and a huge amount of spiritual Qi instantly gushed out from his body.

The gushing of an air current could be heard, and Ji Ha, who had just reached Zhou Yun’s side, was instantly sent flying.

He only stopped after flying for 20 to 30 meters.

The remaining three members, except Qin Xiu, were all blown away by this powerful airflow.

They all used their full strength to resist in order to not be pushed further away.

“How is that possible?”

Their eyes widened in surprise after they stabilized their bodies.

Everyone present was shocked!

Ji Ha was a cultivator at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

How could Zhou Yun push him back?

There was a difference of four layers between a first layer Qi cultivation cultivator and a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator.

The path of immortal cultivation got tougher as the cultivators progressed.

Under normal circumstances, even if Zhou Yun, who was at the first layer of Qi cultivation, used all his strength to hit Ji Ha, the latter would still be unfazed.

Ji Ha would at most feel a tingling sensation.

It was impossible for him to receive any damage, let alone being pushed back more than 20 meters.

Everyone was stunned.

A first layer Qi cultivation cultivator defeated a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator. Were they hallucinating or had the world changed?

Ji Ha was also dumbfounded!

Earlier, he had sensed that Zhou Yun’s body contained a power that was even stronger than his!

Zhou Yun was at least at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation!

Ji Ha had a look of disbelief on his face.

“That’s impossible!”

After he steadied himself, he carefully sensed the fluctuation of spiritual Qi in this place.

Judging from the spiritual Qi fluctuation that Zhou Yun had just released, the former was even stronger than him.

This discovery made Ji Ha even more surprised!

He had met Zhou Yun two months ago. At that time, Zhou Yun was only at the first layer of Qi cultivation.

In just two short months, Zhou Yun had advanced to the fifth layer of Qi cultivation, and was not weaker than him. How was this possible?

“You’re at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation?”

Ji Ha regained his senses and asked Zhou Yun.

Hearing Ji Ha’s words and without waiting for Zhou Yun’s reply, everyone shook their heads.

This was absolutely impossible!

If Zhou Yun had the strength of a cultivator at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation, would he still need to worry about the outer sect disciple assessment?

They had clearly seen Zhou Yun’s worried face when they first arrived.

Moreover, they had just met Zhou Yun not long ago. At that time, he was clearly at the first layer of Qi cultivation. They could not have been mistaken.

Zhou Yun must have pushed Ji Ha away when the latter was not paying attention.

It was impossible for Zhou Yun to have the strength of a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator.

They must be mistaken.

No matter what, they would not believe it.

It must have been an illusion!

Qin Xiu didn’t speak. At the moment, he was lost in thought. He was still a little shocked.

Even though he was surprised that Zhou Yun was a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator, there was something else that shocked him even more.

The release of spiritual Qi!

This was an ability that could only be obtained at the foundation establishment stage!

Just now, he clearly saw that Ji Ha had been pushed away by Zhou Yun’s spiritual Qi.

Otherwise, even if Ji Ha was caught off guard, how could he have been pushed so far away when they were both at the same level?

Here lies the problem.

Zhou Yun was only a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator. How could he release his spiritual Qi?

Qin Xiu was lost in his thoughts.

Jiang Qian was also looking at Zhou Yun in shock. Her eyes were filled with guilt.

As the only female student among them, right now, she already believed that Zhou Yun was at the fifth layer of Qi cultivation.

She had not expected Zhou Yun to be so powerful!

He had been hiding his strength.

She recalled how she had shouted at Zhou Yun earlier and could not help but feel guilty and angry at herself.

Zhou Yun had no problem cultivating here alone.

They were the ones who had barged in and wanted him to clean for Qin Xiu.

They also ridiculed him with all sorts of mockery and sarcastic remarks.

Now that she thought about it, Zhou Yun did not rebuke them just now because he couldn’t be bothered to do so.

Jiang Qian raised her head to look at Zhou Yun again. Only then did she realize that Zhou Yun had not changed at all. He was still as attractive as ever.

They were the ones who had changed.

They had become vain and calculative.

Another person was still mumbling “impossible” over and over again.

He really couldn’t believe it. How did Zhou Yun, who was originally at the bottom among the outer sect disciples, suddenly reach the fifth layer of Qi cultivation?

He himself was only at the fourth layer of Qi cultivation!

He couldn’t accept the feeling of being overtaken.

This must be a mistake!

It was not until a few minutes later that he finally woke up from his initial shock.

However, he still did not believe that Zhou Yun had the strength of a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator.

His eyes were fixed on Zhou Yun.

“I’m at the fifth stage of Qi cultivation.”

Only then did Zhou Yun slowly speak.

The spiritual Qi around his body also began to circulate rapidly.

In an instant, the strength of a fifth layer Qi cultivation cultivator was fully displayed!

At this moment, the entire world fell silent!
