breakthrough!

Inside the True Inheritance Peak of the Beidou Holy Land.

"Eleven drops of divine blood in total, I wonder what Realm of purity they can elevate my Hegemonic Bloodline to!"

"At that time, it will also feed back into my Cultivation!"

"Divine Power Realm, I'm truly looking forward to it!"

After Xu Ying emerged from the Tianjiao Pavilion, he returned to his own residence.

He sat cross-legged, and floating before him were exactly eleven drops of strange divine blood, distorting the very air.

Swallowing these drops of divine blood would make his Hegemonic Bloodline even stronger!

"Gulp!"

Xu Ying didn't even blink, directly taking a mouthful in a whirlwind, as the Peerless Emperor Scripture circulated and vibrated within his body.

It was refined in an instant!

After the strange divine blood surged into his body, it rushed throughout his entire being, and the purple blood within him began to boil.

Xu Ying's skin quickly developed a red flush, and faint wisps of green smoke rose from his head before slowly dissipating.

One could even hear the sound of blood boiling in the air.

Xu Ying was both in pain and happy; the pain came from the seemingly excessive amount of divine blood he had consumed this time, with the pain sensation directly exceeding limits.

But the joy was that the purity of his purple blood began to increase, actually reaching a Bloodline purity of sixty-two percent.

"Boom!"

By the time Xu Ying opened his eyes, he found that the Other Shore spiritual Qi in his Dantian was at Perfection, naturally formed.

"The Other Shore Realm has reached Perfection!"

Xu Ying raised an eyebrow, his eyes unperturbed.

With the Other Shore Realm at Perfection, his overall strength had undergone a qualitative change.

"I can truly achieve invincibility within the Other Shore Realm now; I can even counter-kill those in the Divine Power Realm!"

Xu Ying smiled slightly, a look of confidence appearing on his face.

To cross into the Divine Power Realm, besides the slow, grinding effort, there was another method.

Heaven-Ascending Pill!!

Xu Ying thought of the Medicinal Pill that Elder Yan Ruyi had introduced two months ago.

As the name suggests, the Heaven-Ascending Pill could significantly shorten the time it took for an Other Shore Realm Cultivator to comprehend the power of heaven and earth, thereby Breaking through to the Divine Power Realm.

Mastering a Divine Ability means ascending to heaven!

Of course, this was just the beginning!

"Then I'll go find Elder Yan first."

With his current identity as a True Disciple, it was incredibly easy for Xu Ying to contact Yan Ruyi.

He just hoped that she wasn't in seclusion refining Medicinal Pills right now.

...

...

A gentle breeze swept by, and Xu Ying had already appeared on Elder Peak.

"Oh, isn't this Xu True Inheritance of our Holy Land?"

"A day apart feels like three autumns."

"Xu True Inheritance has changed so much!"

Yan Ruyi, stepping out of her residence, still wore her striking red robe, her neck fair and tender, and her face, free of makeup, gave one a fresh, youthful feeling.

Just by looking at Yan Ruyi's appearance, Xu Ying would have the illusion that the person before him was not an Elder.

Thinking of her unknown age, he immediately sobered up, not daring to guess casually.

After all, a woman three years older brings good fortune, and a woman three thousand years older grants immortality!

"Such a big change!"

After teasing Xu Ying, Yan Ruyi also withdrew her scrutinizing gaze, but her eyes were filled with surprise.

This boy had actually reached Other Shore Realm Perfection already?

"What a monster!"

Yan Ruyi cursed inwardly, recalling how she had struggled for several years to enter the Divine Power Realm when she first joined the Beidou Holy Land.

However, upon remembering that Xu Ying was a Saint Body level Prodigy, it suddenly seemed reasonable.

After all, this scene had occurred ten years ago with someone named Chi Qingning.

"Elder Yan, long time no see, you look even more beautiful."

"If unknown Disciples saw you, they'd think you just turned eighteen!"

Xu Ying, with a smile, complimented Yan Ruyi.

Hearing these words, the smile on Yan Ruyi's face never faded, the curve of her lips almost too wide to suppress.

She deliberately patted Xu Ying's shoulder, playfully scolding, "Xu True Inheritance, you really are a smooth talker."

"No wonder you were able to make Qing Ning fall so quickly; it seems the Disciples of the Holy Land will all come to you to learn a few tricks~"

There was some teasing in her words, but also some truth.

Listening to these words, Xu Ying kept his eyes downcast, seriously stating, "Elder Yan, I came this time because I wish to acquire a Heaven-Ascending Pill."

"No problem!"

Yan Ruyi had already anticipated this, nodding in agreement, and she continued:

"I haven't even finished using the Spirit Medicine you sent last time; the value of those items is enough for you to exchange for subsequent Cultivation Medicinal Pills from me."

"Moreover, that little girl Qing Ning specifically instructed me to give you more Medicinal Pills~"

Towards the end, Yan Ruyi began to raise her eyebrows and smile.

She naturally liked handsome men, otherwise, her surname wouldn't be what it was.

However, for most men, she merely appreciated them, but the Xu Ying before her had sparked some goodwill.

Perhaps it was watching this boy grow over the past two months, that strong (magnificent) and resilient (jade-like) nature that moved her.

Xu Ying stood rooted to the spot, momentarily stunned; Elder Yan had just mentioned Senior Sister Chi, and a warmth spread through his heart.

Senior Sister was so good to him; he would definitely repay (bully) her well when he had the chance.

"Here."

"I've already prepared it for you."

"I just didn't expect you to Cultivate so quickly."

Yan Ruyi flicked her hand, and a jade bottle appeared in her palm, which she handed to Xu Ying.

After Xu Ying took the jade bottle and saw his objective in hand, he quickly said, "Thank you, Elder Yan, then I'll be leaving now!"

"I'll visit you again next time."

Yan Ruyi watched Xu Ying's retreating figure, her mood incredibly bright.

A Saint Body level Prodigy, who had crushed Prodigies of the same Realm in the Five Regions, and could even defeat a Divine Power Realm Prodigy by transcending Realms.

"Your radiance is so dazzling, I'm even a little tempted!"

Yan Ruyi pursed her lips, thinking of Xu Ying's achievements today, and the calm surface of her heart began to ripple.

"Senior Brother Xu~"

On his way back, Xu Ying was recognized by the Inner Sect Disciples; some greeted him with great respect and admiration.

Evidently, his achievements in battling the Prodigies of his generation from the Five Regions today in the Gathering of Heroes Pavilion had already spread.

"Hoo!"

Xu Ying once again sat cross-legged; after consuming the Heaven-Ascending Pill, he began to Cultivate again in one go.

This time, the power unleashed by the Heaven-Ascending Pill activated the efficacy of the Spirit Medicine that had previously settled within his body.

"This feeling, communicating with heaven and earth, so this is what it's like!"

Xu Ying's eyes were tightly closed, his heart merging with heaven and earth, experiencing that profound sensation.

The Heaven-Ascending Pill allowed one to comprehend the power of heaven and earth, directly achieving the Divine Power Realm.

Although he had already mastered one Divine Ability, who wouldn't want to master more?

This Breakthrough lasted for several days.

Until the morning a few days later, Xu Ying slowly awoke.

His eyes calmly opened, and the Aura around him returned to normal fluctuations.

After comprehending the power of heaven and earth, Xu Ying's black hair now appeared understated and mysterious.
