Chapter 1049 - 521: 3 Years
Chapter 1049: Chapter 521: 3 Years
Spring passes and autumn arrives; time flies like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.
Deep within the Purple Bamboo Forest on Spirit Profound Peak, Chen Yue, clad in a pristine white robe, is seated cross-legged on a protruding rock.
As time has changed, the little girl who once leaned against Chen Mu, seeking warmth, has now surpassed forty years of age, becoming a renowned heroine in Yu State, listed on the Wind Cloud List!
Following Chen Mu’s teachings and guidance, Chen Yue was not eager to ascend realms but focused on honing and solidifying her foundation. In an incident with a Heavenly Demon in Sha Prefecture years ago, she gained fortune from misfortune—stimulated by the Heavenly Demon, she thoroughly solidified her Martial Arts will, and her dormant soul heart completely awakened. Shortly thereafter, she comprehended the Martial Arts Domain within just a few years!
During her path through the Five Viscera and Six Viscera realms, Chen Mu consistently provided her with abundant resources, making her foundation exceptionally solid. She tempered the Five Viscera ten times and her Six Viscera refinement greatly exceeded that of ordinary true inheritors.
Regarding innate talent, she is slightly inferior to true inheritors of the sects, but these shortcomings did not hinder her from compensating through postnatal tempering and sufficient resources. It is often said that possessing two out of talent, fortune, and effort, one already reaches the pinnacle of humankind.
Chen Yue could have attacked the Marrow Cleansing Realm long ago, but she chose to consolidate her foundation for future progress. Now, she has finally reached the limit she sensed deep within, ready today to break through the Marrow Cleansing Mysterious Pass.
"Back then, brother entered Dao with his Five Viscera and Six Viscera refined to the extreme in just one attempt, achieving Perfection..."
Ripples appeared in Chen Yue’s eyes.
This was her first attempt to break through the mysterious pass. Most martial artists find it hard to succeed in one go when attacking the Marrow Cleansing Mysterious Pass, but she adhered to Chen Mu’s teachings: silent until one makes a striking success, aiming to succeed in one attempt.
Outside the Purple Bamboo Forest,
several figures stood.
As Chen Yue attempted the Marrow Cleansing Mysterious Pass, there were naturally protectors to prevent disturbance.
Those protecting her were not ordinary people; among them were Xu Hongyu, a Grandmaster, the current Peak Master of Spirit Profound Peak Chu Jingsui, and the Vice Peak Master Meng Danyun, most of whom were from Qin Mengjun’s lineage.
It is worth noting that Meng Danyun had also attained Grandmaster success. Originally a true inheritor, she chose not quite a difficult path, mastering merely two domains. Later, Chen Mu provided her with abundant resources, and after multiple breakthrough attempts, she ultimately achieved Grandmaster mastery.
Zhao Zhenchuan, however, failed to break through the mysterious pass. Being slightly older than Meng Danyun, he lost the opportunity when Chen Mu reached invincibility worldwide, bringing back abundant resources. He is no longer a protector at Seven Profound Sect, but has returned to his family in the prefecture, now serving as an Inspector, blessed with numerous descendants.
"Unknowingly, Yue’er has reached this step."
Meng Danyun gazed toward the Purple Bamboo Forest, a hint of emotion in her eyes.
As Chen Mu’s senior sister, she was familiar with Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue, and others. Early on, when Xu Hongyu and Chen Yue followed Chen Mu to Seven Profound Sect, she was responsible for arrangements, often guiding Chen Yue in cultivation when her prowess was still shallow. After Chen Mu’s return, she traveled with Chen Yue for training after she entered the Six Viscera Realm.
Having received countless favors from Chen Mu over the years, though she once guided his cultivation briefly, Chen Mu soon displayed unparalleled talent in cultivation, surpassing her long ago. Subsequently, he provided her with numerous resources, ensuring her Grandmaster attainment owed much to his assistance.
Thus, she naturally cared deeply for Chen Mu’s kin, guided Chen Yue in cultivation, and on occasion accompanied Chen Yao for outings. Chen Yao holds fond affection for her ’Martial Aunt,’ Meng Danyun.
Presently,
as years pass by, Chen Mu stands as an invincible Martial Saint, while Chen Yue reaches the Grandmaster realm.
Indeed, when one person attains Dao, even fowls and dogs ascend to heaven; this is no falsehood. Since Chen Mu’s return, conquering Central Prefecture, and bringing substantial resources, Seven Profound Sect flourishes step by step. Just on Spirit Profound Peak, there are Grandmasters like Chu Jingsui, Meng Danyun, and Xu Hongyu, with each remaining peak boasting multiple new Grandmasters, such as Zhou Hao, an early true inheritor alongside Chen Mu, who has also now attained Grandmaster status.
Back then, Seven Profound Sect had no more than a dozen Grandmasters, even counting martial prowess like Murong Yan, barely exceeding twenty, but now there are already over twenty Grandmasters.
In the Blood Exchange Realm, Qin Mengjun and Yin Heng stand strong.
Once mere among many sects reigning over a state, Seven Profound Sect now ranks within the top twenty martial sects nationwide, even disregarding Chen Mu.
If more Grandmasters emerge in the future, and Qin Mengjun reaches the Celestial Human level, Seven Profound Sect would stand as a top-tier sect globally.
"Yue’er’s foundation is robust and accumulation substantial, her breakthrough will not be as arduous as mine, it should come swiftly."
Xu Hongyu, clad in plain attire, looked as she did twenty years ago, unchanged. Her demeanor now held a few shades of kindness and grace, mixed with maternal maturity, plus the transcendence of a Grandmaster.
"Aunt is amazing too."
Chen Yao stood softly to the side, alongside Ning He; now, Ning He’s cultivation reached Six Viscera Realm, yet progressed no further. Her foundation is too weak, inferior to Xu Hongyu’s by far, even with Chen Mu’s abundant resources, she could not break through the Marrow Cleansing Mysterious Pass; achieving Grandmaster is not solely accomplished through resources.
