67: That's the direction of the Tianshan Sect!

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Inside the small courtyard where Lin Yi lived in Dongshan Martial Academy.

Terrifying flashes of saber light, like claps of thunder, lit up the courtyard.

Lin Yi held a long saber; the snow-white blade seemed to transform into a bolt of lightning in his hand. As he moved, it constantly evoked various images such as the sun, moon, stars, and thunderous phenomena.

On the other side, Ji Xuan pushed Lin Haichuan in his wheelchair, and both watched with smiles.

After an unknown amount of time... "Rip!"

A fierce saber light suddenly tore through the Void Realm, like a terrifying bolt of thunder falling from the sky. However, both its speed and power surged significantly compared to before.

"Yier, have you made a Breakthrough?"

Seeing this, although Lin Haichuan couldn't even understand his son's saber technique, he immediately noticed something was different and asked in shock.

"That's right! After a month of hard cultivation, I've finally cultivated this First Rank martial art, the 'Sun Moon Thunder Blade,' to the Major Achievement Realm."

Lin Yi nodded, a smile appearing on his face.

A Major Achievement in a First Rank martial art was enough to rival the Perfection of a Second Rank martial art or the Great Perfection of a Third Rank martial art in terms of Martial Arts Techniques Realm!

And the Great Perfection of a Third Rank martial art was a level of technique that was considered good even among Third-Rank Martial Artists.

One must know that a Third-Rank Martial Artist was among the upper three ranks of the Nine Martial Ranks. Even in Dongshan Prefecture, they were top-tier experts, each having comprehended the Limit Breaking Realm.

Therefore, relying on their profound Force Exertion Realm, they Cultivate martial arts very easily—much easier than for a Fourth Grade Martial Artist. Almost every one of them could reach the Great Perfection level in Third Rank martial arts.

Yet Lin Yi's Martial Arts Techniques Realm had reached such a level despite only having a Fifth Grade cultivation base. This showed just how high his technique Realm was!

Feeling quite satisfied, Lin Yi intended to continue practicing his martial arts.

But just then—

"Lin Yi! Lin Yi! Quick! Get ready! Just now, the Guide Envoy from Tianshan Pavilion has arrived at Dongshan Martial Academy!"

Outside the courtyard, Zhao Haihong was walking toward them with a face full of excitement, shouting at the same time.

"What! The Guide Envoy from Tianshan Pavilion is here!"

Upon hearing this, excitement also flashed in Lin Yi's eyes.

Tianshan Pavilion had already replied three days ago.

The letter stated that Lin Yi's talent was extraordinary. After confirmation by the higher-ups of Tianshan Pavilion, they determined he had met the requirements to enter the pavilion. They told him to wait at Dongshan Martial Academy, and a Guide Envoy would come to pick him up soon.

So for the past three days, besides spending time with his parents and practicing his saber, Lin Yi had spent almost all his time waiting anxiously. Finally, the Guide Envoy from Tianshan Pavilion had arrived today.

"Great! Principal, wait, I'll just pack a few things and we'll go!"

With that, Lin Yi immediately turned back to his room to grab the bag he had prepared long ago. Then, he pushed Lin Haichuan in his wheelchair and headed toward the Guide Envoy along with Ji Xuan and Zhao Haihong.

A moment later, at a large square in Dongshan Martial Academy.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

A giant Azure Eagle, seven or eight meters tall and significantly taller than the surrounding buildings, was lazily flapping its wings on the square, creating gusts of terrifying wind.

At the feet of the giant Azure Eagle stood a middle-aged man in green robes with an exceptionally gentle temperament.

"Haha! Lin Yi, let me introduce you."

Zhao Haihong led Lin Yi's group to the man in green and smiled:

"This is Wang Yu, the Guide Envoy from Tianshan Pavilion. His nickname is 'Sky-Mixing Palm.' He is an expert in First Rank palm techniques and also one of the teaching instructors at Tianshan Pavilion."

"Today, he has come to Dongshan Martial Academy specifically to pick you up by the order of the Pavilion Master of Tianshan Pavilion, 'Supreme Elder Liu.' You can just call him Teacher Wang."

"Teacher Wang! Disciple Lin Yi thanks you for traveling thousands of miles to Dongshan Martial Academy to pick me up."

Hearing this, Lin Yi cupped his hands and thanked Wang Yu.

"Haha, no need for such formalities."

Wang Yu smiled gently:

"It's not easy for a Genius from Tianshan Pavilion to be born in Dongshan Prefecture, let alone a Genius who comprehended Limit Breaking at fifteen and is qualified to enter Tianshan Pavilion without an exam. This is even more rare."

"With your talent, it will be easy for you to rival me in the future. My coming to pick you up today is nothing."

"By the way! Is everything ready? If so, don't waste time. Follow me back to the Sect as soon as possible!"

"After all, the Sect is holding a grand ceremony to sacrifice to the Ancestral Master tomorrow. We absolutely cannot miss it; otherwise, it would be disrespectful to the Ancestral Master."

"Yes! Teacher Wang, I am ready. I can leave with you now."

Lin Yi immediately nodded and said.

"Good! In that case, get on the eagle! Xiaoqing, come, crouch down a bit!"

Wang Yu smiled and patted the giant Azure Eagle's talons. Although the giant Azure Eagle was a bit reluctant to see a stranger like Lin Yi, it let out a soft cry and obediently crouched down.

Seeing this, Lin Yi leaped onto the back of the giant Azure Eagle. Wang Yu followed suit and patted the eagle's head.

"Xiaoqing! Let's go!"

"Screech!"

A sharp, piercing eagle cry rang out in the air. Then, the giant Azure Eagle flapped its wings, and its massive body quickly ascended, reaching a height of a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

"Haha! Lin Yi, Cultivate well at Tianshan Pavilion. I'll be waiting for the day you become a First Rank, an Innate!"

Seeing the Azure Eagle fly higher and higher in the sky, Zhao Haihong laughed loudly below.

"Yier, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just do your best. No matter what happens, your parents will support you!"

On the ground, Ji Xuan shouted with tears in her eyes.

"Haha! Yier! Go with peace of mind! I believe you will definitely become an Innate in the future!"

Lin Haichuan sat in his wheelchair and laughed loudly.

"Haha! Father is right! Mother! Principal! Don't worry! I, Lin Yi, will definitely become an Innate in the future! I definitely will!"

Looking at the people closest to him below, Lin Yi laughed heartily. A trace of tears appeared in his eyes, but his gaze was incredibly firm.

"Haha, what a confident little fellow. Still, I hope you can make it in the future!"

On the back of the Azure Eagle, Wang Yu also smiled faintly. He then steered the Azure Eagle higher and higher.

So high that the three people, and even the entire massive Dongshan Prefecture City, became tiny black dots. Finally, they turned into a streak of incredibly fast azure light, flying toward the distant east.

And that was the direction of Tianshan!

It was also the direction of the great martial Sect of Qingzhou, famous throughout the Jiuzhou World—the Heavenly Mountain Sect!
