The Most Powerful Bodyguard

Chapter 1428: Chapter 1428: Celestial Thunder and Earthly Fire

Yang Yan gently smiled and reassured, "I’ve always said that while hard work is important, talent and mindset are equally indispensable."

"Especially mindset, because talent is something that cannot always be forced, and those who can truly defy fate are, after all, few."

"Therefore, the more you strive to progress quickly, the more likely you are to fall into errors, and ultimately you often won’t reach the ideal state."

Qianye nodded, "Yes, teacher, you once said, haste makes waste."

Yang Yan nodded, "That’s the truth. So while cultivation requires continuous effort, you must maintain the right mindset. And I’ve said before, with your extraordinary talent, you start from a much higher point than others, plus having me as your teacher isn’t too bad, you’ll certainly go further than others."

Qianye seemed amused by Yang Yan’s confidence again and suddenly laughed, "Exactly! Teacher always says great teachers produce excellent students, so I definitely won’t let a renowned teacher like you down."

"That’s natural! I don’t take many disciples, and you two are the ones I’ve taught with the most dedication. The future is boundless. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be shameful if I, the grand Moonlight Emperor, had two unambitious disciples?"

This made Qianye’s smile even brighter, and she nodded heavily, "That’s right! Every time teacher’s friend, the Ice Emperor Ao Tian, sees us, he always mocks us, saying we’re not competitive enough."

Hearing this, Yang Yan suddenly laughed, "Him? Do you know the situation with his disciples? I guess they’re only at mid-King level at best now!"

Qianye was obviously startled, a hint of gloom appearing on her face.

Yang Yan quickly reacted and explained, "It’s different, you’ve only known me for a few years. Ao Tian’s disciples have followed him for at least hundreds of years and are at most only mid-King level."

"That guy dares to mock you, where does he get the courage! When I meet him, I’ll definitely have a word!"

With Yang Yan’s explanation, Qianye finally felt relieved.

But she seemed to remember something and quickly asked, "Teacher, is it my illusion? I’ve successfully broken through to the King level, and my foundation is exceptionally solid. It seems I can break through to the mid-level soon."

As she spoke, she looked nervously at Yang Yan, clearly thinking her feeling might be wrong.

Yang Yan gently smiled and patted her shoulder, "Not only that, but you should also feel that the flame attribute within you seems to have changed, becoming easier to control and much more powerful, right?"

Qianye nodded rapidly, she did feel this way but was too embarrassed to ask earlier.

Yang Yan gently smiled, "Of course, your physique has awakened again, and this is a rare Fire Separation True Body. As your strength progresses, these flames will continue to evolve. So, there’s still a long road ahead of you!"

Qianye understandably nodded, her eyes carrying a hint of surprise and joy.

She bashfully glanced at Yang Yan and then mustered up the courage to say, "Teacher, what exactly is your realm right now? I feel like you’ve already surpassed the Emperor-level..."

Yang Yan hadn’t spoken yet when the Void-Devouring Tiger couldn’t help but interject.

It edged closer and teased, "Your master is extraordinary. Though his cultivation dropped somewhat, he’s still at the mid-Transformation Realm."

"Oh, it seems the Earth’s ranking system is a bit different. How should I explain it to you properly?"

As the Void-Devouring Tiger pondered how to best compare the two ranking systems, Zhuge Wushuang suddenly spoke up.

"You’ve now entered the initial King level, which actually corresponds to the early Golden Core stage. You should feel a solidified spiritual power in your dantian."

Upon hearing Zhuge Wushuang, Qianye promptly nodded, indicating her understanding.

Just at this moment, after a thorough refinement by the Thunder Origin, what was originally a Thunder Python Dao Body has been elevated to its utmost, albeit could only be considered a pseudo-dragon state, yet it was already infinitely close to the Thunder Dragon Dao Body.

Lei Ming was extremely excited, and unlike Qianye, she had witnessed everything that just happened.

Initially, upon seeing Qianye advance to the King level, while Lei Ming was happy for her, she also felt a bit lost.

After all, the two of them have always been extremely close, like sisters, and their strength had always been similar.

Moreover, she had long known from Yang Yan that although both of them had enviable talents, relatively speaking, Qianye was more exceptional.

Once the King level bottleneck was crossed, the gap between them would truly emerge.

But now, her physique had also been awakened. Although she didn’t know how formidable the so-called Thunder Dragon Dao Body was, she could infer some clues from the conversation earlier between Yang Yan and Nie Suyuan.

Yang Yan was originally very satisfied with his two disciples. Now that both had successfully entered the Golden Core stage, Yang Yan took out the elixirs he had long prepared for them.

One Fire Separation Golden Core, one Thunder Dragon Golden Core.

Though these were two Earth-level low-grade elixirs, they were precisely the ones Yang Yan specially had Jian Mingyin refine in the past.

These were also the only two Earth-level low-grade Golden Cores Yang Yan carried when he returned from the Land of Mist.

Due to their physiques, upon immediate consumption, there appeared a momentary celestial phenomenon, with thunderclouds boiling in the sky and lava spewing underground.

Apart from Yang Yan and Nie Suyuan, even the Void-Devouring Tiger widened its eyes, not to mention others like the so-called Ten Swords.

That’s because they saw the aura around Lei Ming and Qianye rapidly expanding, as if they could casually command both Celestial Thunder and Earth Fire.

At this moment, Lei Ming was tightly encased within a myriad of flowing lightning, while Qianye was enveloped in blazing flames.

What was more peculiar, their powers seemed mutually attracting, with Lei Ming gradually emitting red fire tongues besides the lightning.

Conversely with Qianye, it wasn’t just fire enveloping her, but faint arcs of electricity also crackled within.

"You anticipated this outcome long ago?" Nie Suyuan’s voice suddenly shimmered beside Yang Yan’s ear.

"I hoped for this outcome; I just didn’t expect it to come so soon. But I must thank you. Without your help, it’d probably still take another two or three years for Lei Ming to meet the current conditions," Yang Yan said sincerely.

"Destiny is unpredictable. This might have been their fated opportunities, and we merely went along with the flow," Nie Suyuan whispered gently.

Finally, the two girls regained control of their newly merged powers, slowly opened their eyes, and looked at Yang Yan with glee on their faces.
