Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?!

Chapter 928: Chapter 492: Eighth Life: Winds and Clouds Surging, All Sides in Motion! (Part 2)

The elder, although appearing advanced in age, had temples that bulged high, and his elderly eyes shone brightly, evidently possessing a very full Power of the Divine Soul!

"Disciple Sun Xiao, pays respect to the Elder."

A beautiful woman dressed in purple clothes respectfully knelt before the elder, her eyes filled with reverence.

"The Great Li Dynasty is far from the Holy Domain, and no Great Teachings have yet set their Dao Lineage here. Sun Xiao, since you are a disciple of our Jile Divine Teachings, you ought to strive to spread our teachings."

The elder in flowery clothes picked up a wine cup, took a sip of fine wine, and then spoke slowly.

"Disciple follows the Elder’s instructions."

Sun Xiao touched his head to the ground with extreme reverence.

"The world knows the Great Li Ancestor favors the Third Prince, with an intention to dethrone the elder and establish the younger. I will send you to the Crown Prince of Da Li, and then assist him to ascend the throne."

"As long as the Crown Prince receives the Imperial Dynasty’s Fortune, then this Great Li will belong to our Jile Divine Teachings."

The elder in flowery clothes glanced at Sun Xiao’s alluringly beautiful face, and even with his cultivation, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of heat deep in his heart.

"Though you are of a male body, you are born with seductive bones, indeed suitable for practicing the Joyful Zen of our Esoteric Buddhism. Come over, I will now impart the teachings to you, helping you step into the Soul Palace Realm!"

"Thank you, Elder."

Upon hearing this, Sun Xiao was overjoyed, immediately stepping forward, undressing, and joining this licentious scene.

...

Time flies as swiftly as a hare runs and a crow flies.

Half a month passed quickly.

As there remained only one more day until the Spirit Void Cave Mansion opened, Lu Yuan finally opened his eyes.

"Snap!"

At the instant he opened his eyes, two golden beams shot out from deep within his pupils, leaving two long marks in the air, illuminating the entire Cultivation Room as if it were daylight.

A dark room filled with light, pupils sparkling with cold lightning!

Only when the Divine Soul is powerful to a certain extent can one achieve this Realm.

"Half a month of arduous cultivation, did I finally step into the Third Layer Soul Palace?"

Lu Yuan felt his cultivation carefully, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

Compared to the strength of the flesh body and Spiritual Energy, the Power of the Divine Soul is the hardest to improve.

Under normal circumstances.

A Soul Palace expert secluded for a year may not even advance one Layer of Cultivation.

Yet Lu Yuan, through merely half a month of arduous cultivation, leaped into the Third Layer Soul Palace Realm, if this were to spread, many True Disciples would likely be enviously red-eyed!

"Only Martial Artists below Nirvana Realm can enter the Spirit Void Cave Mansion, and there are power restrictions too. With my current power, even facing top talents of the Da Li Royal Family, I might easily win."

Clenching his fist, Lu Yuan muttered to himself.

But at this moment, a Divine Thought communication suddenly echoed in his mind.

"Lu Yuan, we are about to set off for the Spirit Void Cave Mansion, quickly come to the Sect Hall to assemble."

Upon hearing Han Qingxuan’s voice, Lu Yuan’s expression moved slightly, with a simple cleanup, he immediately headed to the Sect Hall.

Soon after.

He saw a flying ship steadily parked in the plaza in front of the hall, and Han Qingxuan, along with several True Disciples, quietly stood aside, as if waiting for something.

Lu Yuan glanced around and noticed, besides himself and Luo Xin, there were three other unfamiliar True Disciples present.

These three Sect’s True Inheritors not only had formidable cultivation but were also shockingly young, according to Lu Yuan’s estimation, each was likely under thirty years old!

"Disciple pays respect to Sect Master."

Lu Yuan quickly approached, clasped his hands, and greeted.

"You’ve arrived, join the team." Han Qingxuan nodded slightly.

But the next moment.

He seemed to notice something, suddenly his expression tightened, eyes bursting with unprecedented brilliance.

"Wait! Have you stepped into the Third Layer Soul Palace?"

Han Qingxuan’s expression changed, as if witnessing something incredible.

And the other True Disciples heard this and were equally astonished, all looked at Lu Yuan, their amazed eyes resembling seeing some kind of monster.

If they recalled correctly, during the Inner Sect competition, Lu Yuan was merely at the Sixth Layer of Spirit Sea Realm, right?

Yet now he advanced to become a Third Layer Soul Palace powerhouse in just half a month?

What kind of heaven-defying cultivation speed is this?

"Disciple lives up to Sect Master’s high expectations, this time in seclusion I had some gains." Lu Yuan respectfully said with humility.

Upon hearing this, even as a Sect Master, Han Qingxuan couldn’t help but have a darkened expression, somewhat at a loss for words.

In half a month’s time, able to cultivate to the Third Layer Soul Palace, this could be called "having some gains"?

By this logic, doesn’t it mean that the Sect’s True Inheritors like Luo Xin, who have struggled for years to barely enter the Soul Palace Realm, have lived their years in vain?

However, while Han Qingxuan felt this way, he was also very thankful for his decision to protect Lu Yuan at all costs back then.

A genius with such remarkable talent as Lu Yuan might become one of the strongest in ten years.

Otherwise, if he had let the Taixuan Sect Ancestor take Lu Yuan away, he would have regretted it for life!

"Sect Master, when do we set off?"

Lu Yuan seized the opportunity to change the topic.

"No rush, this time besides us, another Supreme Elder will also be joining us on the journey to the Spirit Void Cave Mansion."

"That Supreme Elder has a Contribution to Creation and has not emerged for years. Now that he rarely comes out, you should seize this opportunity and learn much from him."

Han Qingxuan said with a faint smile.

"Master, could it be Elder Li Shouzhuo accompanying us this time?"

Luo Xin asked curiously with her eyes brightening up.

Li Shouzhuo is the former Hall Master of the Inheritance Hall, known for having flipped through the ten thousand volumes of scriptures in the Scripture Pavilion.

However, he is devoted to the Dao and rarely appears before the public, so many new disciples have never heard his name.

"Indeed, Elder Li has achieved some gains from his years of seclusion, and he intends to discuss and exchange insights with other strong individuals of the same level during this journey to the Spirit Void Cave Mansion, hoping to advance further."

Han Qingxuan spoke truthfully, without hiding anything.

After all, the Sect’s True Inheritors present were core disciples cultivated with dedication by the Cyan Cloud Sect, thus qualified to know these secrets.

Not long afterward.

After waiting for a moment, the crowd saw a streak of white light, like a fleeting shadow, break through the skies from a distance and swiftly appear in front of Lu Yuan and the others.

The white light dissipated, revealing the figure of a kind elder.

The elder wore simple attire, a coarse linen robe, but his bright, wise eyes twinkled with an insight penetrating the affairs of the world.

"Disciples, pay respects to Elder Li."

Seeing this linen-robed elder, Han Qingxuan clasped his fists in salute.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan and the others also quickly made respectful salutes to the elder.

"I have not come out of seclusion for many years, and preparing things took quite some time, making you wait."

Li Shouzhuo spoke affably, with a slight tone of apology.

Then he glanced around and let his gaze linger on Lu Yuan for a moment: "Qingxuan, is this the True Disciple you mentioned to me before?"

"Elder Li, it is indeed this person."

Han Qingxuan signaled Lu Yuan with his eyes and hurriedly introduced him to Li Shouzhuo.

"Disciple Lu Yuan, greets the Supreme Elder."

Lu Yuan understood the gesture and again saluted with his fists clasped.

"Good, good, good, at such a young age to already have a Third-Layer Soul Palace Cultivation; truly outstanding talent."

Li Shouzhuo nodded repeatedly, unable to help but exclaim in admiration.

At his level, he no longer needed to use his eyes; just with Divine Thought, he could thoroughly observe someone inside and out.

And in his perception.

Lu Yuan’s Dao heart was resolute, clear, and pure, like an incredibly sharp treasure sword capable of cutting through all miscellaneous thoughts and desires.

In such a state where he could maintain a childlike innocence at all times.

Lu Yuan’s cultivation speed naturally advanced rapidly, comparable to a thousand miles in one day.

"Having such a disciple is indeed heaven’s favor upon our Cyan Cloud Sect."

Li Shouzhuo sighed inwardly.

"Alright then, the urgent matter is to head to the Spirit Void Cave Mansion as soon as possible."

"Since everyone is here, we should not delay, let’s set off now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved a finger casually.

Immediately, the flying ship docked at the Sect Plaza soared into the sky, its size swelling in the wind, transforming into a massive hundred-foot long ship, steadily hovering in midair.

This flying ship had an ancient design, but every corner was covered with Law Array Patterns.

The runes flickered, emanating a terrifying ripple that made even Lu Yuan feel slightly uneasy.

"This ship is called the Cyan Cloud Ship, a flying treasure I refined in my younger days. Using this ship as transportation, we will reach the Spirit Void Cave Mansion in just half a day."

As if sensing the curiosity of the crowd, Li Shouzhuo explained with a smile, showing none of the airs of a Supreme Elder.

Subsequently, everyone gently stomped the ground with their feet, leaping into the air together with Li Shouzhuo to board the ship.

"Rise!"

Once everyone had steadied themselves, Li Shouzhuo let out a light shout, and the ship trembled slightly, transforming into a streak of light and vanished across the horizon in an instant.
