Sometime later, Ling Yun and Feng Huang had returned to Jian Xianâs old hut. Naturally, they brought Wang Tianshiâs entourage with them, but some of them immediately returned to their respective places, such as Ning Fan and Ning Hao.
"That Ning brat appears to be hostile toward you." Jian Xian said.
Ling Yun shrugged his shoulders. "That idiot tried to approach some of my wives, and Iâve beaten him black and blue, yet his temper hasnât changed. If it werenât for Wang Tianshi and Xueâer, I would have killed him long ago."
"Hehe." Jian Xian chuckled. "Ning Weichen pampered him too much; as a result, he became so arrogant. Since that old man witnessed our previous fight, Iâm sure he will punish that brat once he snitches on him."
Ling Yun gave a faint smile as he looked towards the Ning Clan. "That old man better instill some common sense into that guyâs brain, or Iâll do it myself, and he wonât like it."
Since she had witnessed Ling Yunâs strength with her own eyes, Jian Xian naturally didnât doubt that he could destroy the Ning Clan. She then turned to Wang Tianshi. "You must go with us to the supreme realm, and I would rather not hear any refusal from you. If you dare to refuse me, I will seal your cultivation and throw you into the hell antsâ nest."
Hearing that, Ji Pingâer and the others erupted in laughter, certain that Wang Tianshi would not dare to defy Jian Xianâs orders, particularly considering her superior strength.
Wang Tianshi ferociously glared at them as if he wanted to tear them apart, forcing them to shut their mouths. He then answered Jian Xian. "Fine! I will go with you to the supreme realm, but I will not stay with you. The battlefield is my home, and I can only hone my abilities in various battles, so I will go wandering once we get there."
"Defeat him first." Wang Tianshi turned to Ling Yun and raised an eyebrow. "If you manage to defeat the current him with his full strength, I will allow you to go on your own adventure there. If you lose to him, you must stay with us until your cultivation breaks through to the three immortal realms."
âTch! She knew that I wouldnât be able to beat this kid, yet she gave me such a condition.â Wang Tianshi then flew away. "Iâll pack up my things first."
"Hahaha!" Ji Pingâer laughed heartily at Wang Tianshiâs departure. "Senior Jian, you are the only person who can make Senior Tianshi dare not refute."
"Go back to your sect and bring Ling Yun there." Jian Xianâs order took Ji Pingâer aback. "I talked to Hun Tianhao before, and he should have prepared the Soul Gate for him. Therefore, you can take him there so he can try learning your soul techniques."
Ji Pingâer found it difficult to believe that her sect master would allow Ling Yun to learn their soul techniques, but she didnât dare doubt Jian Xianâs words. "Alright, Iâll take him to my sect now."
Ji Pingâer immediately led Ling Yun to the Soul Palace, followed by Ji Ruxi and Zhou Yu.
"Yun Fei! Go back and help your grandfather pack everything, and we will leave as soon as Ling Yun finishes his business at the Soul Palace." Jian Xian then turned to Yin Yao. "You will also go with us, so you can go back now and prepare."
"Yes, Grandmaster." Yin Yao and Yun Fei left the place directly.
"What about us, Senior Jian?" Hou Liang and the rest asked.
Xuanyuan Xueâer answered them instead. "My husband already considers the four of you his friends, and you guys helped us a lot at the tower. He will take you with us, so you can get ready now. As for the members of your clans, we have to wait for him to come back."
Hou Liang, Wan Jiang, Chui Shong, and Wan Xiaotang were overjoyed when they heard that.
Wang Jiang then spoke. "After spending a few months together, we are more or less familiar with Ling Yunâs character, and we know that he wonât bring our family along. We have no problem with that, and we will pick them up once we become truly strong."
"Yeah." Xuanyuan Xueâer nodded slightly, and the four men immediately returned to their respective clans to prepare themselves. "Master, let me help you pack up."
"Sure."

As the three of them entered the Soul Palace, the disciples of the sect stared at Ling Yun in confusion. However, the elders stopped them and ordered them not to say anything, mainly because they had also witnessed his spar with Jian Xian earlier.
Soon, they had arrived in front of the Soul Gate, where Hun Tianhao was waiting for them. "Kid, I donât know how far you have understood the soul cultivation path, so I donât know which technique is suitable for you. Therefore, you should enter this gate to choose it yourself, but you should not force yourself because the soul pressure inside is too high, and your soul will be injured if you force it too much."
"All right." Ling Yun replied with a nod.

"Pingâer, you can lead him inside."
"Master! I want to find a new technique, and I want to try to enter the third level, so I will join them." Hun Tianhao briefly glanced at Ji Ruxi before nodding. "Hehehe! Thank you, Master."
Ling Yun looked up at Zhou Yu. "Do you want to join us?"
"No." Zhou Yu told Ling Yun about something, to which he immediately agreed.
After Ji Pingâer and Ji Ruxi led Ling Yun into the Soul Gate, Zhou Yu asked Huo Tianhao to take her somewhere else, causing him to frown for a moment. Despite this, he did not refuse and took her to that place. âWhat exactly does she want to do there?â

The moment they arrived inside, Ling Yun felt a strong pressure pressing down on his soul, but it was nothing much to him because he had eleven souls, and a small part of Sheng Mingâs soul also resided in his soul space.
"Donât you feel anything?" Ji Pingâer curiously asked.
"I can feel the pressure, even though it doesnât affect me that much." Ling Yun then looked at the surrounding area. "Where are those techniques located?"
"Right ahead." Ji Ruxi answered as she pointed ahead. "This place divides into five levels, and once we pass through that gate, we will reach the first level. The pressure on the soul will get stronger the further we go in, but we will be able to obtain better soul techniques."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "Have any of you managed to reach level five?"
"I only managed to reach level two." Ji Ruxi replied disappointedly.
Ji Pingâer shook her head. "I previously only managed to reach the third level, but Iâve improved a lot now, so Iâll try to enter the fourth level."
Ling Yun led the two women into the first level as he looked at the collection of techniques floating in the area, but none of them caught his interest because their grade was too low.
The three of them then went to the second level, and the pressure there increased even more. However, it was not a problem for Ling Yun and Ji Pingâer, but Ji Ruxi began to sweat from the effects of the pressure.
"Ugh! I have to get a better technique, so I have to make it to the third level!" Ji Ruxi turned to Ling Yun while blinking, especially since the pressure on her soul suddenly disappeared thanks to him. "Can you help me go all the way to level five?"
"I still donât know the pressure at level three and above, so we should try it first." Ling Yun then chose a few techniques on the second level, but there was only one technique that interested him, and he took it directly. "This Soul Ignition Technique isnât bad, right?"
Ji Pingâer directly told him. "This soul ignition technique is indeed good, but we have to burn our soul for a temporary power boost, so you should not choose it. Instead, you can choose the Soul Awakening Method in the third level, and it can help you awaken the dormant potential of your soul."
"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding and released the technique in his hand. "Letâs go there."
Upon arriving at the third level, Ling Yun immediately picked up the technique that Ji Pingâer mentioned before and read it seriously.
[The Soul Awakening Method is a profound technique designed to awaken a sleeping, fractured, or sealed soul. It is often used by cultivators who wish to unlock their hidden potential, recover lost memories, or increase their spiritual awareness. Depending on the method used, the awakening process can be gentle and gradual or intense and painful, pushing the soul to its absolute limits.]
"I will learn this technique." Ling Yun then asked. "Do you have any other technique recommendations for me?"
Jin Pingâer first looked at those techniques and considered several things before taking two of them for Ling Yun. "This Soul Sealing Formation is good, but you must first understand the formation array to be able to learn it. Since you have the light element, the Soul Cleansing Art is suitable for you, and it can help you to purify corrupted souls and heal soul-related injuries."
"Here!" Ji Ruxi suddenly handed Ling Yun a technique.
"The Soul Mirage Illusion, huh?"
