Chapter 15

Next.

Many Profound Emperor Realm geniuses wildly slaughtered fire beasts in the first layer of the Flame Abyss Secret Realm.

The watching inner-sect disciples were utterly shocked.

Normally strong fire beasts actually became feeble.

In one day, someone slaughtered over 30,000 fire beasts!

Many genius disciples went berserk killing!

They killed so fast that the first-layer fire beasts couldn't even materialize.

The Flame Abyss Will appeared in time to stop them: 'The fire beasts are being consumed too much; within three days, no new fire beasts will spawn in the first layer of the Flame Abyss!'

Many disciples were shocked.

Under the stimulation of Junior Sister Ji Fuyao, many geniuses became utterly crazy!

Slaughter!

At this moment, Fang Yan, Luo Lingkong, and Liu Xuan, among the top core disciples, stepped into the second layer of the Flame Abyss!

They began to break Ji Fuyao's record!

The Guardian Fire Beast at the second layer's entrance curled its lips; seeing many fire beasts slain, it felt extremely gloomy.

Because these fire beasts are condensed from its power, normally it can balance the power when disciples slaughter them, but now too many disciples have gone berserk, causing its qi to weaken somewhat; it likely needs to rest for a while to recover.

'Are they all crazy, really?'

Soon, a disciple from Sword Peak flew over on his sword, looked down at the Guardian Fire Beast, and said lightly, 'I'm drawing my sword.'

The Guardian Fire Beast lay on the ground, its huge head like a small hill, emitting waves of terrifying spirit fire; its eyes opened like bronze bells, and it slowly spoke.

'Make your move.'

'Sizzle!'

Suddenly, a sword qi transformed into a rainbow and shot forth.

Seeing this, the Guardian Fire Beast's massive body rose and swung a claw at Luo Lingkong.

The next moment.

The Guardian Fire Beast was directly sliced in half by the sword qi!

Instant kill!

On the sword cultivator disciple's face appeared a faint smile: 'Has the Guardian Fire Beast weakened, or have I grown stronger? I think it's that I've grown stronger.'

Saying that, he directly stepped into the second layer of the Flame Abyss.

After that sword cultivator left.

Boom!

The Guardian Fire Beast, borrowing the power of the Flame Abyss Will, condensed once more into a massive body.

Just then.

A lady from the Miaomiao Peak descended in a white dress, her jade feet stepping on brilliant flowers.

Her slender jade hand reached out, not giving the Guardian Fire Beast a chance to speak, as a divine radiance surged forth.

'Damn...'

Before the Guardian Fire Beast could react, an invisible force sealed its body, then it turned into showers of spirit-fire petals.

It wanted to resist.

But it was useless!

Dead!

The Miaomiao Peak lady smiled enchantingly, her jade feet stepping on the annihilated body of the fire beast, and entered the second layer of the Flame Abyss.

After dozens of breaths, the Guardian Fire Beast's body condensed once again.

It was angry.

'Damn?'

Because too many fire beasts have dissipated, its current strength hasn't recovered, less than half of its usual strength!

So, normally it could easily handle these Profound Emperor Realm geniuses, but now it's the one being handled!

The Guardian Fire Beast's nostrils spewed flames as it was about to send a voice transmission to the sect master, wanting the sect master to stop these disciples.

But.

Another male figure came rushing in madly.

It was a disciple of the Body Tempering Peak!

This young man was naked, his body surface flowing with incredibly brilliant golden light; each step he took shattered the ordinary fire beasts that lunged at him, he arrived before the Guardian Fire Beast and suddenly clenched his fists.

'Crackle!'

The young man curled his lips into a smile and threw a straight punch at the Guardian Fire Beast.

Boom!

With the might of a single punch, the Guardian Fire Beast turned into showers of fire light and dissipated.

The young man's face showed no ripple as he directly stepped into the second layer of the Flame Abyss.

In the air, the Guardian Fire Beast condensed once more, emitting a resentful sound.

'Damn you, immortal!'

'Who the hell did I provoke?'

'You all came to practice on me, right?'

Moments later, several more figures descended.

It saw that behind it there were still many top-tier Zhuan Chuan Di Zi queuing up, wanting to kill it.

These disciples didn't even say hello, they directly attacked.

Fire Beast of the Pass, exterminated!

Exterminated!

Exterminated!

Even before it could condense into form, in less than a breath, its body was blown apart by someone!

The Fire Beast of the Pass wanted to cry but had no tears.

It directly collapsed.

It now has a face full of question marks.

???

Finally, the Fire Beast of the Pass directly ran away, leaving the entrance to the second layer of the Fire Abyss.

"I don't want to guard this broken entrance anymore; whoever wants to guard it can guard it."

Many disciples were stunned straight away.

The Fire Beast of the Pass actually fled?

After the Sect Leader and others learned of this, they all laughed.

This really is the first time such a thing has happened.

At this moment, Fang Yan, Liu Xuan, Luo Lingkong and others, on the second layer of the Fire Abyss, broke Ji Fuyao's Profound Sect Realm record!

Thus, on the Profound Emperor Ranking and the Profound Sect Ranking, Ji Fuyao's name was squeezed off!

All of Ji Fuyao's records have been refreshed!

After the Sect Leader and others learned of this, they nodded lightly.

Looks like the inner sect trial is a sure thing.

Fang Yan let out bold words, "I don't know, Junior Sister Fuyao, can you break through my defense?"

Luo Lingkong had a light and carefree expression, "I have a sword; once drawn, I am invincible! First in the inner sect, none but me!"

Liu Xuan gave a charming smile, "It's been a long time since I've made a move; this time I'm actually looking forward to it."

The Sect Leader felt confident, again sent a voice transmission to Lu Xuan, telling him what happened in the Fire Abyss Secret Realm.

Lu Xuan heard about the Fire Abyss Secret Realm and laughed until he couldn't close his mouth.

The Fire Beast of the Pass is just too tragic.

When it was time to eat, Lu Xuan told Ji Fuyao about this.

"Pfft." Ji Fuyao pursed her lips and smiled, "Those top-tier true transmission disciples can break my Profound Sect Realm record; it seems their strength is not weak."

Lu Xuan pursed his lips and said, "But my disciple is stronger."

You should know that these past few days, after Ji Fuyao returned from the Fire Abyss Secret Realm, aside from cooking, she has been cultivating nonstop!

Last night, she entered the mid Profound Sect Realm!

And Lu Xuan directly entered the first layer of the Profound Venerable Realm!

It's only been one month!

His cultivation level skyrocketed from the Qi Refining stage to the Profound Venerable Realm!

Profound Venerable Realm, by venerating the law of heaven and earth's power, one can touch a trace of heaven and earth's power.

If other cultivators enter the Profound Venerable Realm, they must focus on comprehension afterward!

Pure cultivation increase will lead to a bottleneck, making it impossible to enter the Profound Sage Realm!

What is a sage?

You must know your own "Dao".

Therefore, in the Profound Venerable Realm, comprehension is more important than cultivation; one must accumulate comprehension for the Profound Sage Realm.

Actually, at the moment Lu Xuan entered the Profound Venerable Realm last night, he felt a slight chill on his celestial crown.

He touched a trace of heaven and earth's power!

But Lu Xuan did not continue to comprehend.

What's the point of wasting effort on this nonsense?

Doesn't he have a disciple?

Thinking of this.

Lu Xuan looked at Ji Fuyao with an appreciative expression, "Disciple, during this time you have performed excellently on Xuan Qing Feng. As your master, I am very satisfied."

Ji Fuyao's face slightly blushed, she gave a light smile, and her heart warmed.

Her master made her feel a kind of warmth and purity.

In her previous life, she fought her way through bloodshed, but never experienced this pure and warm feeling!

This month on Xuan Qing Feng passed quickly.

This place is like her home, and her state of mind consequently became clear and indifferent.

In cultivation she did not slack off, but her state of mind is no longer as impatient as before.

And this state of mind, she sought it desperately in her previous life but never realized it.

Never expected that it would actually be achieved on Xuan Qing Feng.

Ji Fuyao's starry eyes sparkled, she gave a radiant smile to Lu Xuan, and felt even more that her master was mysterious.

She murmured in her heart, "There is so much on my master that I need to learn."

Lu Xuan smiled.

What is the disciple Fuyao fantasizing about again?

Fuyao's expression like this is all too familiar to him.

Ah… this girl!

Evening.

Ji Fuyao cast countless seal restrictions in her cave dwelling, brilliant spirit patterns flowing, appearing extremely mysterious.

She took out the Fuyao Order.

Directly activating an ancient secret art, she began contacting the imperial dynasty's Dragon Guard.

"Wang Man, Qing Yan, have you gathered any news about the other two forces?"

Soon, a rough voice sounded.

"Your Majesty the Empress, we have already made contact with one of the forces; the other force is too far from the Black Flame Mountain Range and has not yet responded to us."

The speaker was none other than the Dragon Guard Commander, Wang Man!

Ji Fuyao nodded and said, "Continue."

"The ones we have contacted are Qingcheng and the Ye family! For three thousand years, they have become the overlords of Qingcheng, though they have always remained very low-profile."

"We have already sounded them out. They are absolutely loyal to Your Majesty the Empress!"

"Moreover, we have informed the Ye family's ancestral elder of your reincarnated return! They are already preparing to welcome your descent!"

Ji Fuyao slightly tilted her snow-white neck, divine radiance flowing in her eyes, "Well done."

At this moment, the other Dragon Guard Commander, Qing Yan, asked, "Your Majesty the Empress, when will you descend to the Black Flame Mountain Range?"

Ji Fuyao said, "In just these few days!"

Tomorrow is the inner sect trial.

After the inner sect trial ends, she will receive a sect mission and take this opportunity to head to the Black Flame Mountain Range.

Qing Yan and Wang Man were both extremely excited!

"We will be able to see Her Majesty the Empress imminently..."

Their voices trembled slightly.

After three thousand years of steadfast guarding, the moment we have been waiting for has arrived!

Ji Fuyao said, "Alright. I will contact you then."

The two commanders in unison said, "As you command!"

……

The next day.

The Great Dao Sect's inner sect trial begins.

The entire sect was immediately in an uproar!

Above countless spiritual peaks, brilliant Dao patterns flowed and intertwined, as brilliant as a galaxy.

Above the Void, numerous auspicious saint-rank demon beasts soared, their wings unfurled, emitting waves of auspicious sounds as they roamed the firmament; wherever they passed, divine radiance surged, appearing extraordinarily magnificent.

Numerous elders and disciples stepped into the void, divine rainbows shooting forth in the air, shining brightly.

At the martial training field, disciples from the minor spiritual peaks had already descended.

Regarding this inner sect trial, everyone discussed it heatedly.

"You say, who will take first place—Senior Brother Fang Yan or Senior Brother Luo Lingkong?"

"Senior Sister Liu Xuan is also very strong!"

"What about Junior Sister Ji Fuyao? If she can make it into the top thirty of the trial, that would already be terrifying."

Just then.

A gray-robed youth descended in the air, his body emanating a terrifying qi and blood pressure, a faint golden light spilling from his surface; with each step he took, his inner world resonated with rolling waves.

A disciple exclaimed in surprise, "Body Tempering Peak's Senior Brother Fang Yan has arrived!"

Fang Yan!

He is famed as the one in the Great Dao Sect who is unstoppable below the Profound Venerable Realm!

The next moment.

"Clang!"

Sword cries rang through the void as hundreds of figures turned into meteors and rushed toward the martial training field.

Sword Peak's disciples!

They all flew on their swords, appearing ethereal and unworldly, causing many female disciples' hearts to flutter.

The leader was none other than the sword cultivation genius, Luo Lingkong!

Luo Lingkong gave a light smile, making people feel like they were basking in a spring breeze, "Everyone, long time no see!"

Many disciples replied, "Senior Brother Luo Lingkong!"

Shortly after.

From the Ethereal Peak, Liu Xuan stepped upon countless brilliant petals, immortal aura drifting, landing in the martial training field.

This caused a male disciple's eyes to light up.

Soon, the sect leader and many peak masters also descended.

The sect leader glanced around and asked, "Where is Lu Xuan? He hasn't arrived yet?"

The Elixir Peak master chuckled, "Good for nothing..."

After a long while.

In the distance, a misty cloud drifted along; upon the mist were Ji Fuyao and Lu Xuan.

Ji Fuyao wore a Huo Se Chang Qun, her face absolutely beautiful, her figure presenting an utterly perfect curve, causing many disciples' hearts to tremble.

Lu Xuan also stood lazily in white robes, smiling as he looked down at the elders and disciples, "Everyone, long time no see."

Everyone was stunned.

No one responded.

The scene was a bit awkward.

The sect leader's face twitched, "Lu Xuan! Hurry up a bit, everyone's waiting for you!"

Lu Xuan said: "Good."

Soon, Lu Xuan and Ji Fuyao landed in the martial arts field.

Everyone looked at Ji Fuyao, all somewhat shocked.

It's been a few days; Ji Fuyao has broken through again?

Now she is already at the mid-stage of the Profound Ancestor Realm!

The sect leader silently wondered, "How many pills has Lu Xuan fed Fuyao?"

Just forcing the realm up, huh?

Ah...
