321: The protagonist was distressed, and the disciples of Tai Xuan were shocked.
A few days later.
Lingwu Holy Land.
A young man of ordinary appearance stood on the mountaintop with a gloomy face, looking into the distance.
He was none other than Chen Hao, who had just finished challenging the Spiritual Martial Holy Son.
"Dammit, I actually lost!"
Chen Hao said with an ugly expression.
Unlike other Holy Lands, every six months, every Spiritual Martial Disciple can challenge the current Spiritual Martial Holy Son. If they defeat the current Saint, that Disciple becomes the new Spiritual Martial Holy Son.
So he had prepared for so long and remained in seclusion until a few days ago just to defeat the current Spiritual Martial Holy Son and seize the position of Saint.
But he still failed.
The current Spiritual Martial Holy Son had hidden his strength; on the surface, he was only at the Nascent Soul Second Layer Realm, but in reality, he was at the Out-of-Body Fourth Layer Realm.
And even when he fully activated his secret technique and Heavenly Martial Saint Body, his strength was only at the Nascent Soul Third Layer Realm, which is why he lost.
"It shouldn't be like this!
It's all Su Yun's fault!"
Chen Hao said through gritted teeth.
Previously in the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm, it was all because Su Yun injured him that he missed out on a large number of Heaven And Earth Treasures.
By the time he recovered from his injuries, the Heaven And Earth Treasures in the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm had already been scavenged clean by others.
His only gains were several top grade Rank Spells. Since he already knew many top grade Rank Spells, they weren't very useful to him.
If he had obtained the Immortal-grade Cultivation Technique Legacy on the summit of that Mountain of Inheritance, he wouldn't have lost today.
Just then, a communication jade slip in Chen Hao's Storage Ring suddenly flickered with spiritual light.
"Is there news?"
"So fast!"
A flash of joy crossed Chen Hao's face.
He had previously asked his Junior Brother to help gather information regarding Su Yun.
After all, he only knew that Su Yun was a Taixuan Holy Land Disciple and knew nothing else, so when he came out of seclusion a few days ago, he had his Junior Brother gather information about Su Yun.
Then, he took out the communication jade slip and circulated his spiritual power to check the message.
"What? Su Yun became the Taixuan Holy Son?"
Chen Hao's eyes widened, and he spoke with extreme displeasure.
"Damn it! It must be because Su Yun refined the large number of Heaven And Earth Treasures he obtained in the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm, causing his strength to skyrocket, that he became the Taixuan Holy Son!"
Then, he suddenly swung his fists, and white fist light released in all directions.
A violent explosion sounded, dust filled the air, and the ground cracked inch by inch, but it quickly restored under the effect of the mountain peak's Formation.
"It seems I must hurry and Cultivate.
My Heavenly Martial Saint Body isn't fully activated yet; once it is, my Cultivation speed will be even faster!
Just you wait, Su Yun. Your Realm is only temporarily higher than mine."
"Ruoxi, one day, I will clear up the previous misunderstanding with you."
Chen Hao with a flash returned to his Immortal Cave and continued to Cultivate.
He believed this failure was just a small interlude.
He had obtained the Legacy of an Ancient Immortal; he certainly wouldn't lose to Su Yun.
Although he heard Su Yun also obtained an immortal inheritance, he believed his own Legacy was more powerful because the Immortal who passed the Heavenly Martial Saint Body to him seemed to be beyond the ordinary Immortal Realm.
So he believed that as long as he was given enough time, he would surely catch up to Su Yun, and then he would definitely be able to take his revenge.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao sat cross-legged and took out all his Heaven And Earth Treasures to begin Cultivating. The aura on his body slowly rose as the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi continuously surged toward him... Taixuan Holy Land.
Below Saint Son Peak.
Ever since Su Yun became the Taixuan Holy Son, Disciples often lingered at the foot of Saint Son Peak.
After all, Su Yun's strength was so formidable that many Disciples wanted to become his followers.
"The Saint doesn't seem to plan on recruiting followers!"
"Sigh, what a pity."
"Yeah, but I saw Senior Sister An and Senior Sister Luo seem to have moved into Saint Son Peak."
"Could it be that the two Senior Sisters have become the Saint's followers?"
"Is it possible that it's because both Senior Sisters are the Saint's Dao Companions?"
"So that is why they moved into Saint Son Peak?"
"I'm so envious!"
Many Disciples would visit the foot of Saint Son Peak during their Cultivation breaks, but they all returned disappointed.
After some time, a rosy light suddenly shot up from the summit of Saint Son Peak into the clouds.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the entire Great Profound Realm suddenly surged toward the summit of Saint Son Peak.
"Such a huge commotion.
Could it be that the Saint has made a Breakthrough?"
"Didn't the Saint just break through to the Nascent Soul Tenth Layer Realm not long ago?
How has he broken through again?"
"Then wouldn't the Saint be breaking through to the Integration Layer One Realm?"
Many Disciples who were planning to leave turned back, speaking in disbelief.
The surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi quickly turned into spiritual power vortices, surging toward the summit of Saint Son Peak.
Several Elders from the nearby major peaks also noticed the change in the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the Great Profound Realm.
However, once they realized the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was all surging toward Saint Son Peak, they stopped paying attention.
They were afraid they would become jealous if they paid any more attention to the situation at Saint Son Peak.
They already regretted why they had been afraid of Elder Meng and given up on taking Su Yun as a Disciple.
If they could go back to the past, they would rather be beaten by Elder Meng every day just to take Su Yun as a Disciple.
After all, this was a Disciple with the potential for Immortal Ascension; Cultivators with such talent had only appeared in ancient times, and every single one of them had become an Immortal... Some time ago.
Inside the Saint Sons Cave Abode.
The three women, including An Yuyao, finished their Cultivation early and came to the outside of the cultivation room together.
They had long since learned from Meng Shuyan that Su Yun was breaking through to the Dao Integration Realm, so they did not enter the cultivation room and only waited outside.
A moment later, a powerful aura was suddenly released from the cultivation room, followed by powerful spatial fluctuations.
The space within the entire Immortal Cave began to vibrate slightly, but it quickly calmed down under the suppression of the Immortal Cave's Formation.
"Spatial Spiritual Power?"
Luo Qingshuang's beautiful eyes flickered as she remembered the drop of space dragon essence blood Su Yun had found in the Dragon Tomb Secret Realm.
Perhaps it was because Su Yun had refined that drop of space dragon essence blood that he possessed such powerful Spatial Spiritual Power.
"It's not just Spatial Spiritual Power, but also multiple types of powerful spiritual power.
As expected of Su Yun."
An Yuyao said with a slight smile.
As an Awakener of the Innate Spiritual Charm Sacred Body, her perception of spiritual power was very strong, so she could clearly sense multiple types of powerful spiritual power.
As the spatial fluctuations disappeared, countless rays of rosy light were suddenly released from the cultivation room, lighting up the Immortal Cave, with countless Law patterns contained within the rosy light.
These rays of rosy light seemed to sense a familiar aura; most of them surged toward the three women, including An Yuyao, while only a small portion shot through the Immortal Cave into the air.
Bathed in the abundant rosy light, the three women, including An Yuyao, suddenly had an epiphany; things they couldn't understand during their usual Cultivation were suddenly made clear.
At this moment, An Yuyao gained the most.
The Bottleneck to her Spirit Transformation Realm quietly dissipated.
In other words, she could now directly break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.
The other two women also gained significantly; Chu Ningyue directly broke through to the Nascent Soul Eighth Layer Realm.
And Luo Qingshuang also broke through to the Nascent Soul Second Layer Realm.
