27: Chapter 27 Journey to Central Plains

Cao Yang looked tenderly at the beauty in his arms and said softly, "Revered Master, these black and white silk stockings have a magical function too; they can automatically protect their owner! As long as you are attacked, they can block eighty percent of the damage. However, please note that this function is limited to attacks from Cultivators. Come, let me help you refine them together."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Liuli narrowed her beautiful eyes, a hint of a smile appearing at the corners of her mouth as she said coquettishly, "Really? That's wonderful! These stockings are not only comfortable and beautiful to wear, but they can actually defend against attacks; it's simply amazing!" She sat up slightly, leaning against Cao Yang's broad chest, feeling his warmth and love.

The two smiled at each other, and then Ouyang Liuli took out a pair of silk stockings and began to refine them. Cao Yang also helped with the refinement; they formed hand seals, and streaks of spiritual light were injected into the stockings. Gradually, a faint glow appeared on the surface of the stockings.

The refinement process was not long, and before long, the stockings were finished.

Cao Yang gently stroked the stockings, feeling the powerful energy contained within, and nodded in satisfaction. Meanwhile, Ouyang Liuli couldn't wait to put them on. She stretched her legs, feeling the comfort brought by the stockings, her face beaming with a joyful smile.

"Wow, they're even more comfortable to wear after refinement! And I feel like my defensive power has increased quite a bit; plus, they can hide within the skin," Ouyang Liuli said excitedly.

Cao Yang nodded with a smile, "Yes, the defensive capability of these stockings is quite good and can provide better protection. In the future, when you encounter danger, you'll have an extra layer of security."

Ouyang Liuli gave Cao Yang a grateful look, then hugged his arm tightly and said spoiledly, "Thank you, Yang'er. With these treasures you've given me, I feel incredibly at ease."

Cao Yang responded tenderly, "You're welcome, my precious Revered Master. As long as it makes you happy, everything is worth it."

"Yang'er, my cultivation has also broken through to the Middle Stage of Undergoing Tribulation; it's truly incredible!" Ouyang Liuli's face was filled with joy she couldn't hide.

That's right, Cao Yang had used the remaining last hundred years of cultivation on his beautiful Revered Master. After all, his beautiful Revered Master had learned so much knowledge, how could he not give her a supplement?

Ouyang Liuli then seemed to remember something else and continued to ask, "By the way, there's also last time; my cultivation went directly to Undergoing Tribulation without any Heavenly Tribulation. Yang'er, what's going on? Is this also a method from your previous life?"

"Correct, I used a method left from my previous life to shield the Heavenly Tribulation. Don't worry, Revered Master," Cao Yang explained.

Cao Yang also asked, "Revered Master, do you need time to stabilize your Realm after the increase?"

"It seems I don't. It's just that my power has surged, and if I want to use it skillfully, it will take some time. However, the Realm increase is even more solid than if I had Cultivated myself," Ouyang Liuli replied.

"Mm, that's good then," Cao Yang said with relief.

It seemed that all Realm increases using the System's cultivation, no matter who it was, didn't require time to stabilize.

Over the next few days, Cao Yang moved back and forth between the various Immortal Caves of Liuli Peak. He gave Fifth Senior Sister Xiao Lingxue and Second Senior Sister Su Xuan two pairs of silk stockings each, one black and one white. Both women loved the stockings immensely.

Besides that, Cao Yang also visited Eldest Senior Sister Mu Wanying, and also dropped by Third Senior Sister Hua Xinyu and Fourth Senior Sister Fu Xiaoya's places once, strengthening their fellow-Disciple friendship.

He also gave that top-grade Magic Treasure, the Azure Wood Sword, to Fourth Senior Sister Fu Xiaoya, which greatly increased Fu Xiaoya's favorability.

Soon, the day to go to the Central State for the Exchange Meeting arrived.

Led by his beautiful Revered Master, Cao Yang and his five Senior Sisters headed towards the Moyang Peak square. By the time they arrived, many people were already there. Besides the Disciples and Elders participating in the Exchange Meeting, there were also many people from the Sect who had come to see them off.

Sect Master Mo Nantian stood on the high platform with several Elders behind him.

Once Master Ouyang Liuli reached the Sect Master and the others, Sect Master Mo Nantian took a step forward and waved his hand, summoning a Magic Treasure airship.

He said to the Disciples below the platform, "Disciples participating in the Exchange Meeting, start boarding the airship now and stay beside the leading Elder of your respective Peaks."

After saying that, he flew into the airship, and the Elders behind him followed.

The various Disciples then boarded the airship one after another. The space inside the airship was very large, and after the Disciples entered, they all went to find the leading Elders of their Peaks.

After the six of them entered, Cao Yang and the others quickly found Ouyang Liuli. After instructing them on matters such as not fighting or using force on the airship, Ouyang Liuli returned to the Elders' exclusive room.

The ship was full of Disciples wandering around, and some Disciples had returned to their rooms to meditate and Cultivate. However, there were over a hundred Disciples participating in the Exchange Meeting in total, so there were many Disciples outside as well.

Soon, Cao Yang encountered the Eldest Senior Sister at the bow of the ship, gazing into the sky in a daze.

Eldest Senior Sister Mu Wanying was dressed in a purple long dress, her black hair fluttering. From behind, she gave off an image of peerless elegance.

Cao Yang lightened his footsteps and slowly walked to Mu Wanying's side. He didn't speak, but just stood there quietly.

"Junior Brother, do you know what lies beyond the sky?" Mu Wanying said calmly. Although she didn't look at Cao Yang, she had clearly noticed his arrival.

"Beyond the sky is naturally the Void Realm. There are many worlds in the Void Realm, some are cultivation worlds like the Tianxuan Realm, and there are also other worlds for martial arts or demonic cultivation. Of course, the Immortal Realm is also within the Void Realm, and perhaps there are existences of an even higher Rank than the Immortal Realm."

Cao Yang also looked at the Void Realm in the sky. Besides what he mentioned, there were also many Void Creatures there, some of which were crashing against the Tianxuan Realm every moment, only to be blocked by a layer of barrier.

"A world of a higher Rank than the Immortal Realm?" Mu Wanying murmured to herself softly.

Although her Aptitude was Heaven-Defying and she possessed the Starry Immortal Physique, which allowed her to Cultivate with the help of the stars at an incredibly fast speed, reaching the Soul Transformation stage before the age of a hundred, she still lacked the confidence to become an existence that surpassed an Immortal. After all, she only had an Immortal Physique.

Mu Wanying looked at Cao Yang and smiled slightly. "I haven't had the chance to thank you yet, Junior Brother. The Medicinal Pill you gave me last time was a huge help. I've already broken through to the Peak of Soul Transformation. My Realm was a bit unstable at first, but after a few days of stabilization, it has already settled down."

"Before this, I never imagined that a single Medicinal Pill could actually raise me by three minor stages," Mu Wanying showed a look of gratitude.

Cao Yang returned the smile, "Eldest Senior Sister, there's no need to be polite. I have plenty of such Medicinal Pills, it's just that they shouldn't be taken in large quantities within a short period, otherwise, it will affect your Foundation."

"I suppose you must have been very powerful in your previous life, Junior Brother, to be able to leave so many hidden measures for your reincarnated self, breaking through to the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation in just over a month," Mu Wanying showed a curious expression.

"I'm not very clear myself. For now, I've only obtained some memories. Perhaps as my cultivation gets higher in the future, I'll be able to obtain more memories."

Cao Yang had previously used the Reincarnation of a powerful expert to explain the things happening to him, and now he could only continue to use that.
