Myriad Dragon Divine Sovereign

"Stop!" Liu Xuan suddenly called out.

Wen Qingye paused and looked at Liu Xuan in confusion.

Liu Xuan looked at Wen Qingye, her eyes unblinking as she smiled. "I don’t believe I’ve caught your name. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"It’s already dark; I wouldn’t want to disturb the Eldest Princess. As for my name, it’s Wen Qingye," Wen Qingye said with a slight smile.

"Wen Qingye?" Liu Xuan nodded and said to herself, "A good name. A very good name indeed."

Suddenly, Liu Xuan’s gaze locked onto Wen Qingye’s eyes. "That mass of gray gas just now... it must be quite the treasure, wouldn’t you say?"

Hearing Liu Xuan’s words, Wen Qingye’s expression remained perfectly calm. He gave a faint smile. "Oh? Is the Eldest Princess planning to...?"

Liu Xuan chuckled in amusement. "You really aren’t nervous, are you, kid? Relax, I’m not going to ask for it back. I just hope you’ll remember the favor of my silence just now."

"Alright!" Wen Qingye agreed without hesitation, giving a firm nod.

Since Liu Xuan wasn’t going to pursue the matter of him taking the most valuable item from the coffin, he naturally didn’t mind helping her out once or twice in the future.

"My thanks, then," Liu Xuan said upon hearing Wen Qingye’s reply. Her beautiful eyes flashed as she covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

Wen Qingye was eager to get back and refine the Jade Green Fruit, so he cupped his fist. "I’ll take my leave."

With that, Wen Qingye transformed into a black shadow and vanished into the night.

After Wen Qingye disappeared, Youx Dong bowed and asked in a low voice, "Eldest Princess, are you saying that kid secretly took something from the coffin just now?"

Liu Xuan gazed at the moonlit sky and replied with a smile, "Mm, I saw his palm absorb a wisp of gray gas. I have a feeling that stream of qi was anything but simple."

"Then...?" Youx Dong couldn’t help but ask.

"Let it be. Who knows if that thing is a blessing or a curse? Just let him have it," Liu Xuan said, waving her hand dismissively. "His strength is considerable. Having him owe us a favor will be beneficial for Jinfeng during tomorrow’s tomb exploration. And who knows about the future? No one can say for sure. Being kind to others is its own form of cultivation."

Youx Dong nodded and said no more.

...

Back in his room, Wen Qingye stretched out his hand. A ball of gray qi condensed in his palm, refusing to dissipate, pulsing with a breathtaking light.

This was the Coffin Fungus!

A vast, endless aura seemed to burst forth from it, and a hint of delight appeared in Wen Qingye’s eyes.

Wen Qingye was confident he could use his Yang Fire to resolve the Coffin Fungus’s cold, yin nature. Afterward, he could use it to refine and absorb the pure Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, or even use it in Alchemy. Both were excellent options.

The only problem was that he didn’t have enough time to refine the Coffin Fungus right now.

Wen Qingye put the Coffin Fungus away and took out the Jade Green Fruit. It was crystal clear, a translucent pinkish-red that, upon closer inspection, gave one the irresistible urge to take a bite.

After many days of travel, during which he cultivated on the move, Wen Qingye’s cultivation had reached the peak of the Sixth Level of the Yin-Yang Realm. If used properly, this Jade Green Fruit was just what he needed to break through to the Seventh Level of the Yin-Yang Realm.

Wen Qingye sat down cross-legged, picked up the Jade Green Fruit, and swallowed it whole. Then, he took out a Profound Pearl and placed it in front of him.

The Jade Green Fruit dissolved the instant it entered his mouth. In a flash, a surging, pure stream of Primordial Qi erupted, rushing down his throat like a raging river, roaring as it poured into his meridians.

The moment this turbulent Primordial Qi entered his body, Wen Qingye felt a violent tremor in his heart. If not for his astonishing self-control, he would have been immediately knocked out of his meditative state.

At that very moment, the Profound Pearl also began to emit an astonishing amount of Primordial Qi, which rushed into Wen Qingye’s body at a speed visible to the naked eye. This Primordial Qi was incomparably pure.

The Primordial Qi from the Profound Pearl and the Primordial Qi from the Jade Green Fruit seemed to converge. At first, the unique energy of the Jade Green Fruit gained the upper hand, but as time passed and more of the Profound Pearl’s energy flowed in, the two forces seemed to fall into a stalemate.

BOOM!

Hearing the faint, muffled explosion from within his body, Wen Qingye let out a low groan, and a flush crept up his face.

Activating the Longevity Technique, Wen Qingye’s Heart Spirit continuously guided the energies, causing them to circulate rapidly along the pathways of the technique.

The Primordial Qi already within Wen Qingye’s body was drawn into the motion, beginning to spin rapidly. Then, like three rivers converging, the three streams of Primordial Qi slammed into each other.

In that instant!

Wen Qingye’s mind went blank and ethereal, as if everything had suddenly blurred.

However, as time went on, under the guidance and circulation of the Longevity Technique, the three streams of Primordial Qi slowly converged, gradually fused, and began to form drop after drop of pure Primordial Liquid.

His meridians began to show faint signs of tearing. As the Primordial Qi surged, Wen Qingye could almost hear it roaring with excitement. But in the next moment, the turbulent energy seemed to break free from his control, rampaging in all directions through the meridians in his body.

A bead of sweat slowly trickled down Wen Qingye’s forehead, and a hiss of cold air escaped through his clenched teeth.

Within his Yin Yang Qi Sea, countless streams of Primordial Qi poured in, making the entire "sea" boil violently. Vast swaths of Primordial Qi seemed to liquefy, floating slowly upon the surface of his Qi Sea.

One drop!

Two drops!

An unknown amount of time passed. The Primordial Qi Liquid seemed to go into a frenzy, rushing to every part of Wen Qingye’s body, seeping into every pore, his blood, and his very skin.

Seventh Level of the Yin-Yang Realm!

As the last wisps of energy slowly faded, Wen Qingye felt as if his body could erupt with even greater power. His mind became exceptionally clear.

The sky was now showing the pale white of dawn, and hints of golden light began to shine down.

Fang Yu walked out slowly, stretching his arms and yawning.

"The weather’s nice today," he said, rubbing his eyes.

Just then, Wen Qingye slowly appeared beside him and chuckled. "You were sleeping soundly last night."

Fang Yu rubbed his head sheepishly and explained, "I’m used to meditating in the mountains, so once I start, I tend to go pretty deep. Did Brother Wen come looking for me last night?"

Wen Qingye gave Fang Yu a surprised look, then shook his head. "Last night, five Corpse Ghosts appeared carrying a coffin."

"Really?" Hearing Wen Qingye’s words, Fang Yu’s eyes widened like saucers. He then sighed, "Ah, what a shame. I can’t believe I was meditating that deeply."

Watching the regretful Fang Yu, Wen Qingye couldn’t help but feel a little surprised. ’Generally,’ he thought, ’the deeper one can go into meditation, the more profound their cultivation mindset. They absorb Primordial Qi faster, and their future prospects are limitless.’

’It seems Fang Yu reaching the Eighth Level of the Yin-Yang Realm at such a young age wasn’t entirely due to shortcuts. He must be a top-tier prodigy in the Daoist School of Non-action.’
