899: Chapter 888 I am Qin Yan!

You must know that these Holy Land Disciples in the Cangwu Small World have always operated on a "hit-and-run" basis when dealing with local factions, never daring to stay in one place for long for fear of being surrounded and suppressed by those local forces.

Yet Qin Yan was the first in history to dare to openly declare war on a local hegemonic faction in such a straightforward manner.

For a time, streams of light rose from every corner of the Eastern Region, converging toward the direction of the Vajra Temple like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

Qin Yan was unaware of all these undercurrents in the outside world, or perhaps even if he had known, he would not have taken them to heart.

At this moment, he was standing in a temporarily rented inn room, holding the moyuan spirit weapon, practicing his Spear Technique over and over again.

The gray-black Great Destruction Spear Intent flickered at the tip of the spear, and every thrust left a lingering trace of destruction in the air.

Huang Jiuli was infected by his enthusiasm seeing Qin Yan cultivating so diligently; she took out her Phoenix Feather Sword and began practicing her Sword Technique attentively to the side.

For a time, half the room was filled with the gray-black Great Destruction Spear Intent sweeping across, while the other half was filled with the crimson phantom of a divine Phoenix circling and crying out.

These two distinct powers flowed alternately in the cramped space, yet they did not interfere with each other.

Time slipped away quietly in such fulfilling cultivation, and soon four days passed, bringing the date to October 5th.

Qin Yan put away the moyuan spirit weapon, exhaled a long breath of turbid air, and immediately opened his attribute panel.

The changes on the panel were not significant; the various values had only increased slightly within a small range.

Qin Yan's gaze swept across the panel, finally resting on the Mental Energy column.

"I wonder when my Mental Energy will be able to break through to 600 Hertz."

His Mental Energy had been stuck at 599 Hertz for some time, and even now, he had yet to take that final step.

He knew in his heart that he had encountered a Bottleneck between major Realms—599 Hertz to 600 Hertz was the critical threshold for the transformation from a Rank 7 Spiritual Power Cultivator to the Rank 8 level.

The difficulty of this Breakthrough was far greater than crossing between ordinary minor Realms.

Even with the exceptionally favorable cultivation conditions of his Shadow Clone, breaking through this Bottleneck would still require a considerable amount of time to slowly polish and accumulate.

"It's a pity that I no longer have the benefit of time acceleration. If I were still in Wanfa Palace or the Sea of Time, given the Shadow Clone's speed of comprehension, I'm afraid it wouldn't take more than a few days to break through this Bottleneck in one go."

Qin Yan muttered to himself with some regret.

For him, time acceleration was equivalent to using a cheat code.

In that environment, not only was he cultivating himself, but his Shadow Clone was also constantly comprehending Mental Energy within the Darkness Profundity.

With the two combined, the extent of his progress far exceeded that of anyone else.

However, thinking about this now was useless; the cultivation in the Temple of Time had ended, and all he could do now was stay grounded and move step by step toward that threshold.

Qin Yan closed the panel, pushed open the door, and walked out. Today was the appointed day; it was time to set off for the Vajra Temple.

Huang Jiuli had already prepared herself, and seeing Qin Yan come out, she retracted her long sword into her body.

The two exchanged a glance, simultaneously turned into streams of light, soared into the sky, and tore through the air toward the direction of the Vajra Temple.

Since they were not far from the Vajra Temple, after less than half an hour of flight, Qin Yan and Huang Jiuli had already arrived above the Vajra Temple.

The towering ancient temple beneath them was built against the mountain, with layers of Buddha halls extending all the way from the foot of the mountain to the summit.

Looking from afar, the entire mountain was shrouded in a layer of pale golden Buddha light, solemn and dignified.

"Who dares to fly across the sky above my Vajra Temple!"

Before the mountain gate of the Vajra Temple, a gatekeeping monk wearing a gray monk robe looked up at the two uninvited figures in the sky and shouted sternly.

"I am Qin Yan."

Upon hearing the name "Qin Yan," the gatekeeping monk's expression changed instantly.

This person was actually that extraterrestrial demon who had killed two demon kings in the royal palace of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Beasts and had threatened to challenge their Vajra Temple.

Before he could react, a low and majestic Buddha chant had already sounded from within the Vajra Temple: "Amitabha. Extraterrestrial demon, since you have come to my Vajra Temple today, there is no need for you to leave."

The moment the voice fell, the entire Vajra Temple suddenly erupted with intense Buddha light.

Brilliant golden Buddha light shot up from the domes of every Buddha hall, illuminating the entire sky as if it were the Western Pure Land.

Immediately afterward, figures wearing monk robes flew out from every corner of the temple like a tide, surrounding Qin Yan and Huang Jiuli in the center within the blink of an eye.

Zen Master Shikong's expression was solemn as he gently waved his withered palm.

A Vajra bracelet, with pale golden Buddha light flowing all over its body, flew out from his sleeve and instantly turned into a golden stream of light, sweeping to the sky above everyone's heads.

Layers of Vajra power poured down from the Vajra bracelet like a waterfall, rapidly interweaving and condensing in the void.

In the blink of an eye, it formed a semi-transparent golden Vajra barrier, tightly shrouding this area like an overturned giant golden bowl.

Seeing this scene, a trace of cold Battle Intent flashed in Huang Jiuli's Phoenix eyes, and the Phoenix Feather Sword suddenly appeared in her hand.

Crimson Phoenix True Fire burned fiercely on the sword body, and a clear, resonant Phoenix cry faintly emanated from the sword edge.

She swung her sword in a slash, and a Phoenix Sword Qi dozens of zhang long broke free from the sword, transforming into a crimson fire Phoenix with wings spread, carrying a terrifying high temperature that could burn everything, slamming heavily against that layer of Vajra barrier.

Phoenix True Fire and Vajra Buddha Power collided wildly in mid-air; the crimson flames and pale golden Buddha light crushed and devoured each other, splashing up ripples of intense energy one after another.
