After saying that they loved each other, Zhang Yi and Lu Bi really decided to slowly return to the sect and enjoy time together without teleportation, and Zhang Yi always set up camps even though Lu Bi said he wanted to help.
The two were now much closer, and Zhang Yi was guiding Lu Bi on how they should continue this relationship, even though he was much younger and was already married and experienced, and Lu Bi has never had a relationship in 2,500 years.
She always lived and was raised in Sword Sect and always knew as a cultivator that she had to stay strong and enjoy the early years to cultivate if she wanted to reach the divine realm in the future, thankfully her effort was rewarded and she became one of the greatest geniuses of the sect.
Fortunately as she was in the Sword Sect which was a fair sect she was not required to marry or be with the sect's elders' main disciples and relatives as they did in other sects which could make his life difficult with the beauty she had .
Zhang Yi naturally knew that his relationship with Lu Bi was different with his wives and so he had to be much more respectful when he was with Lu Bi, he also respected his wives a lot before, but he had practically married them when they got together in the past because of the difference in culture.
After a few weeks they finally came back to the sect and the elders who were worried about them finally relaxed, they thought they had given Zhang Yi and Lu Bi an easy mission and as she had the laws of space they hoped the two would come back much faster.
After they returned Lu Bi told everything that had happened to her master and Zhang Yi also went to talk to elder Wang after her to ask him to accept their relationship.
Elder Wang was pleasantly surprised by this and of course, was very happy and agreed that the two would be together, he and the cult elders wondered how they could do to ensure that Zhang Yi would remain in Sword Sect even without using any important resources of the sect.
Some elders thought of using Lu Bi to get Zhang Yi to stay in the sect, but they couldn't ask her because Sword Sect has always been known for giving the disciples a lot of freedom.
Fortunately, the two stayed together even though most of the elders thought Zhang Yi wouldn't be with Lu Bi because he was a genius and usually geniuses had a very big ego and wanted to be with only the best women of the divine plane.
Even though Lu Bi was considered by the elders to be the sect's greatest genius, it was hard to say that she was the most talented woman or the most beautiful of all women in the divine plane, there were still many women who were far more talented than Lu Bi and much younger.
Of course, they didn't know that Zhang Yi didn't care at all who were the greatest geniuses or who were the most beautiful women in the divine plane, he just stayed with Lu Bi because he really loved her and they had been together for many years.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed with her just because of her talent or her beauty, especially because of the guilt he felt with his unborn wives, yet the elders were very happy that Zhang Yi was with Lu Bi now.
Even if he left the sect one day, Lu Bi would still remain a disciple of the sect and that would not change because she took an oath to the sect and came to where she was using the sect's resources.
That was enough for the sect's elders, now Zhang Yi had to wait for the sect's elders and elder Wang's approval to be able to become Lu Bi's husband, not exactly having a wedding ceremony as often as he had on Earth.
Of course, if Zhang Yi wanted he could organize a big party when he married Lu Bi, but that was not a good idea these days because even if he was a genius he still had weaker cultivation than Lu Bi and that would cause a contempt of other geniuses.
Even so, neither Zhang Yi nor Lu Bi was in a hurry and would continue the missions until the elders approved their marriage, even after that they would not marry so quickly.
After that, they did a few more missions for a few months and Lu Bi decided he wanted to do another isolated cultivate to further improve her cultivation, Zhang Yi also decided to do this and warned that it would take many years because he would try to get to Realm of Emptiness before leaving.
Knowing Zhang Yi's talent, Lu Bi knew that Zhang Yi could surely do that in less than 15 years and so she could have more time to cultivate and understand everything she learned from him after so many missions.
So Zhang Yi did as he said he would and stayed another 9 years in isolated cultivation and thus could reach the eleventh realm of energy and the eleventh realm of body refinement, so he was now much stronger than before turning back time.
He can feel the spiritual energy in his mental energy world getting much stronger and that would only help his parents even more, after all even if Zhang Yi was very talented he could not help his parents to reach the divine realm.
So in those 9 years, they only advanced 2 layers and it would get even worse in the next few years, it could take over 100 years to get to the Soul Birth realm, but as they had reached the Mortal Tribulation realm they could live tens of thousands of years.
Also, as Zhang Yi suggested, they not only kept cultivating but also spent time together and often talked to Zhang Yi who also cultivated in the mental energy world.
In those 9 years, Zhang Yi didn't just focus on cultivation either, and besides spending time with his parents, he thought about creating his new defensive technique, with divine talent and divine insight. Zhang Yi was able to create this technique after many years.
This was a defensive technique different from the divine techniques he had and had no guaranteed effect, depending on who used this technique could be stronger than a divine technique or weaker than any common defensive technique.
It was somewhat similar to the sacred domain technique but was more defensive and much harder to use, it could be said to be a defensive technique made exclusively for Zhang Yi to use and perhaps no one else.
The sacred domain technique was a technique that used whatever laws the technique user had and used it to affect the opponent, depending on the technique the user's ability as Zhang Yi could be used to be the best, but if someone didn't have many laws It was almost useless.
Even though having some conditions was an easier technique to use, Zhang Yi's technique was different, it used the laws that the user had the most mastery of and created a shield that prevented attacks of qi, mental energy, and other laws.
The biggest problem was that the user of the technique had to have a high level of understanding of all techniques because he himself had to control the technique and the laws to defend against enemy attacks and was not automatic as the sacred domain technique.
The name of the technique was the shield of chaos and it used several laws to create a chaos shield that could stop anything, for some it was useless, but for Zhang Yi who had supreme understanding in 10 laws and advanced understanding in 3 other laws.
And 2 of the laws he had supreme understanding were the laws of time and space which in this defensive technique of Zhang Yi were the most useful for increasing his total defense, he himself was not sure of the total efficiency of this technique, but the heavenly armor technique would decrease almost half the attack.
