34: Chapter 34: People must grow, and guns must see blood!

But now, as long as Yun Yuan broke through to become a Spirit Saint, he would be able to possess a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone that even a Titled Douluo might not have. One could imagine how much Qian Daoliu valued and trusted him.

"Mm, your Grandmaster also wants to see you reach Spirit Saint as soon as possible."

After making the promise, Qian Daoliu placed the wind and lightning attribute torso Spirit Bone into a specific box and stored it in his storage spirit tool.

When Yun Yuan broke through to Spirit Saint, he would gift this Spirit Bone to him.

Seeing this, Gold Crocodile Douluo couldn't help but show a look of envy, though it quickly subsided.

He also possessed a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone, but it didn't provide a significant boost to his combat power. Currently, his dream was to become a super Douluo like Qian Daoliu.

Wanting to break through from Rank 98 to Rank 99 was not something a single hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone could achieve.

After finding Yun Yuan and meeting up with Golden Crocodile, Qian Daoliu began to leave the Star Dou Great Forest to return to Spirit City.

An hour later, at the mountain behind the Supreme Pontiff Palace.

Yun Yuan returned to his palace and lay on his soft, large bed. He couldn't help but recall the events of the day, which were truly sigh-inducing.

From meeting the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to the Red King's attack and the separation of master and disciple, then to the chance encounter with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, obtaining his second spirit ring and external Spirit Bone, and finally reuniting with Qian Daoliu.

In less than a single day, Yun Yuan felt as if a century had passed. His time in the Star Dou Great Forest was truly nerve-wracking.

But now, everything was fine.

Not long after Yun Yuan returned, Qian Xunji's figure appeared in Yun Yuan's palace.

"Teacher, why did you come over? Didn't Grandmaster say you still needed to recuperate and receive treatment?"

Seeing Qian Xunji, Yun Yuan's first reaction was shock, followed by confusion, not knowing the purpose of Qian Xunji's arrival.

"Xiao Yuan, I came here because I wanted to see you. Alas, if it weren't for my actions, you wouldn't have been in such danger. This is all due to my incompetence."

Qian Xunji let out a long sigh, his words filled with apology. Fortunately, Yun Yuan was capable and managed to survive on his own until his father arrived. Otherwise, Qian Xunji would have lived in regret forever.

Then, he seemed to remember something and said to Yun Yuan:

"By the way, Xiao Yuan, you haven't obtained your second spirit ring yet, have you? In a day or two, I will have a Titled Douluo accompany you to obtain it."

"Obtaining a spirit ring cannot be delayed. Since I am currently injured, I cannot accompany you myself."

Hearing this, Yun Yuan shook his head. Then, under Qian Xunji's confused gaze, he began to recount his fortuitous encounters in the Star Dou Great Forest.

As Yun Yuan spoke, the corners of Qian Xunji's mouth began to twitch, and his eyes were full of disbelief as he looked at Yun Yuan.

What had he just heard? His disciple had obtained a thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's spirit ring, and furthermore, had obtained a thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw external Spirit Bone.

But more importantly, according to Yun Yuan, his Spirit, the qingtian spear, had evolved once again. What kind of incredible luck was this?

After a moment of silence, a look of pride and glory appeared on Qian Xunji's face as he looked at Yun Yuan and praised:

"My disciple Yun Yuan has the potential to become a god."

These were his heartfelt words. Yun Yuan's qingtian spear Spirit was already comparable to a god-level Spirit, and now that it had evolved again, its strength likely surpassed even the Seraphim.

In addition, Yun Yuan was only a two-ring Spirit Master, yet he possessed two extremely precious external Spirit Bones. His fortune was truly flourishing.

Hearing Qian Xunji's exclamation, the corners of Yun Yuan's mouth twitched wildly. This phrase felt familiar, though he didn't know if it carried any karmic weight.

In Yun Yuan's view, this phrase was a jinx, specifically used to jinx geniuses. After all, in a certain neighboring great World, a genius with the potential of a Great Emperor had been jinxed to death.

That tragic state was simply unbearable to witness.

After learning that Yun Yuan had already obtained his second spirit ring, the purpose of Qian Xunji's visit today was gone. He then needed to return and properly treat his injuries.

In the following time, Yun Yuan began to immerse himself in cultivation again, mainly focusing on meditation and Way of the Spear practice.

Having obtained his second spirit ring, his natural talent had increased to three times its original base. At this moment, Yun Yuan's cultivation speed was extremely fast.

In just one month, Yun Yuan's Soul Power level rose directly from Rank 24 to Rank 25, and his cultivation of Heaven-Supporting Intent also made great progress.

But during this month of Way of the Spear practice, Yun Yuan always felt that something was missing in his cultivation of the intent.

"What exactly is it? It's truly frustrating. It just so happens that Teacher Gu Feng returned a few days ago; I should go ask him for advice. I might gain something from it."

Unable to perceive what was missing in his Way of the Spear cultivation, Yun Yuan had no choice but to try another way and ask Gu Feng, a Way of the Spear master who had already reached the third realm of Way of the Spear.

In Spirit City, at Gu Feng's residence.

Yun Yuan's figure appeared here. In front of him was Gu Feng, who had just returned from a mission and was Yun Yuan's former Way of the Spear teacher.

"You're saying that you've already stepped into the Concept, and have even progressed a certain distance within it?"

"But you feel like you're always missing something, making your Heaven-Supporting Intent imperfect, is that right?"

Seeing that Yun Yuan had condensed his own unique Heaven-Supporting Intent in less than a year after formally learning the spear, and had even progressed a bit in this realm, Gu Feng was greatly shocked.

Is he even human? Using the phrase 'born for the spear' on Yun Yuan felt like an insult to him in Gu Feng's eyes.

"Yes, that's it. This is what has been confusing me, and I don't know how to solve it, so I wanted to come and ask you."

Yun Yuan nodded, looking at Gu Feng with expectant eyes, wanting to hear his perspective.

Gu Feng was silent for a moment, as if he had guessed something. He summoned his Spirit, a Silver Spear, and then looked at Yun Yuan.

"Xiao Yuan, you summon your Spirit too."

Hearing this, Yun Yuan did as Gu Feng said. An incandescent, transparent long spear appeared in his hand.

The moment the qingtian spear appeared, the Silver Spear in Gu Feng's hand couldn't stop trembling, as if it were worshipping the qingtian spear in Yun Yuan's hand.

Seeing Yun Yuan's qingtian spear again, he wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he felt that Yun Yuan's Spirit seemed to have become stronger again.

However, what he needed to do now was not to focus on the strength of Yun Yuan's qingtian spear Spirit, but to help Yun Yuan correct the problem he encountered in his cultivation.

"Xiao Yuan, look closely at our two Spirits and see if there's anything different about them."

After Gu Feng finished speaking, he looked at Yun Yuan with a face full of expectation, hoping he could find the answer himself.

Hearing this, Yun Yuan looked back and forth between his qingtian spear and Gu Feng's Silver Spear. Finally, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he spoke his guess.

"It lacks killing intent."

Seeing Yun Yuan's realization, Gu Feng smiled, then withdrew his Spirit and conducted one of his rare teaching sessions.

"Xiao Yuan, you guessed right."

"People must grow, and spears must taste blood!"
