Lu Yaoyao was visibly stunned upon hearing Zhou Qingâs words, her eyes widening in shock.
From the time I took over that mirror frame to the moment you emerged, there was only a tea time in between, and you managed to slay a legendary Spirit Severing Realm entity?
How did you do that?
Normally, Spirit Severing Realm cultivators donât easily engage in combat with one another.
Because once they do, itâs truly a cataclysmic battle, some can even last for several years.
Even if Yan Sen was severely injured, heâs still in the Spirit Severing realm, you...
[Heart Mirror Points +9]
Soon, the label above Lu Yaoyaoâs head, which had changed to {Good Nose} not long ago, reverted back to {So Cool}.
No wonder my father is so extraordinary, even when fighting across realms, heâs remarkable.
Zhou Qing no longer spoke, fully immersing himself in cultivation.
As the Heart Method of "Yin Yang Skills" operated, the Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystal immediately released strands of dark-red light that burrowed into his meridians.
His pupils constricted, filled with astonishment.
Because this energy was dozens of times more pure than top-grade spirit stones, transforming into a blazing inferno upon entry and surging through the meridians.
It burned away impurities accumulated over many years.
It was an indescribably smooth sensation, as if he wasnât absorbing spiritual Qi but merging with the Origin Power of the heavens and earth.
Vast Essence Qi continuously poured into his Dantian, Sea of Consciousness, meridians...
Zhou Qing could even hear light cracking sounds from within his body, it was the stagnant spiritual power barrier slowly fracturing.
Besides that, he felt his Sea of Consciousness was as clear as a mirror. Past insights that were obscure and difficult to comprehend suddenly became clear and tangible.
It had a somewhat ethereal feeling, akin to absorbing the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree.
"No wonder itâs comparable to Tao Trace Level Divine Techniques, how did the Blood Phoenix Race even create this?"
Zhou Qing was amazed, hastening the absorption even further.
As the fifth day arrived, Zhou Qing held the last nearly transparent Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystal in his hand.
Lu Yaoyao had long recovered and was vigilantly guarding the surroundings.
As for that strange crystal in fatherâs hand, I had seen it when I was a child.
Specifically, each time he slew a Demon Emperor, several pieces would appear on his body, used for healing and absorption.
Iâve long gotten used to it.
But having never cultivated before, I was trained only by father to temper my physique.
Looking again now, this item is clearly extraordinary, and who knows where it came from?
As she pondered, Zhou Qing, who was originally meditating, suddenly had his aura shake after absorbing the last wisp of blood and Qi.
The spiritual power barrier long constrained in the Dantian collapsed dramatically, a more vast aura spread forth.
"A breakthrough?" Lu Yaoyao could clearly feel this aura imposing far stronger than usual.
Zhou Qing also opened his eyes with elation.
Then he slowly stood, feeling the turbulent spiritual power rushing through his body, a smile unconsciously appeared at his lips.
From today, Zhou Qing would be the top below the Spirit Severing realm!
"Itâs getting late, letâs go!" Zhou Qing hurriedly led Lu Yaoyao out, unable to linger in celebration.
After collecting the mirror frame, he headed straight for the platform he had marked.
"Yan Senâs eighth uncle, I guess, should be in the late-stage Spirit Severing realm, and as a fourth-level Array Master, dealing with him is incredibly difficult!"
Zhou Qing looked toward a distant platform, worried.
Furthermore, itâs unknown where he had gone now.
If heâs ventured deeper, that would be good, for even the Old Peng King and Shen Hanyi dare not tread too far there.
Existences at the Demon Emperor level could leave him forever stranded.
"Stay here and donât move, Iâll go check!" Zhou Qing instructed Lu Yaoyao and then cautiously approached.
Upon reentering the ruins, he observed the Four-Color Array still functioning, though there was no trace or aura of Yan Weiyi.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing rejoiced and quickly rifled through Yan Senâs storage bag, retrieving the Token.
After swiftly refining it, with a wave of his hand, the array dispersed, transforming into twelve Array Flags and an Array Disc filled with top-grade spirit stones.
Zhou Qing happily stored them and returned to Lu Yaoyaoâs side.
"I assume Yan Senâs eighth uncle doesnât know this place will expel all outsiders after five days,"
"So, logically, he should be searching around now." Zhou Qing was certain.
Lu Yaoyao nodded, saying, "Yeah, I really hope heâs as unlucky as Yan Sen!"
Zhou Qing sighed softly.
Unfortunately, there was only one "Bad Luck Sticker".
"What do we do now?" Lu Yaoyao asked.
Zhou Qing thought for a moment, surveying the surroundings.
The suspension platforms around Kunpeng Palace are numerous, and they didnât land at the same place as last time.
Itâs completely random.
Once expelled, given the opponentâs Spirit Severing realm means, escape is impossible for the two of them.
Teaching a person to fish is better than giving them a fish!
If the opponent wants to enter again, he might perform a Soul Search on him or coerce Lu Yaoyao to force him to hand over the "Emperorâs Brilliance Scripture".
Afterward, they could be killed to keep the secret, monopolizing the Secret Realm alone.
So, a few hours later, it would truly be do-or-die.
"Donât rush, let me see!" Zhou Qing said as he rummaged through Yan Senâs storage bag.
Thereâs plenty inside, especially over a hundred top-grade spirit stones, though none from the five elements.
Howâs this possible?
"Scrolls of Three-color and Four-color Arrays, the legacy left to him by Master Xuanqing is all here!"
