However, the use of medicinal pills for assistance posed certain limitations and moreover, the method of switching cultivation would be entirely controlled by Chang Qing Pavilion.

“There are countless martial artists in the Inner Realm, countless talents. Perhaps when the method of switching cultivation is spread, someone might realize a way to condense the Heaven and Earth Bridge without the need for medicinal pills,”

Li Xuan muttered to himself.

Upon Xie Lingfeng’s successful cultivation switch, several Grandmasters, who were also martial arts scholars, were excited to switch their cultivation to the Innate Realm and then continue studying the difference between the martial arts of the Inner Realm and Dahua.

Hu Shan also prepared to switch to martial arts.

Xie Lingfeng continued to consolidate the Heaven and Earth Bridge, enhancing it from within. As for breaking through to the Tongxuaned Realm, he decided to forgo the idea. His foundation was still weak, making it impossible for him to stage a breakthrough.

All he contemplated was the enhancement of his power by achieving the full strength of an Innate Realm cultivator, defeating a Great Grandmaster.

Xu Yan, having realized the full potential of the Innate Realm, killed even the Peak Great Grandmaster.

Xie Lingfeng had more modest aspirations, content with overcoming a mid-level Great Grandmaster with his complete power at the Innate Realm.

At Canglan Island, there stood Chang Qing Pavilion’s alchemy room, still supervised by Pharmacist Pan. Regularly, people from Tianbao Pavilion would come to collect the Pills while also delivering the spiritual medicine required for the pills.

Xu Yan continued to comprehend Sword Intent while Zhou Ying prepared for a breakthrough into the Innate Realm.

Li Xuan led a carefree life, occasionally drifting on the Cang river while leisurely fishing. His days were comfortable and relaxed.

One day,

“Your disciple, Meng Chong, has defeated a Great Grandmaster with a punch, which increased your battle experience.”

A golden light emerged. Meng Chong had defeated a Great Grandmaster.

“Have they already reached the Purple Cloud Kingdom?”

Li Xuan wondered.

Perhaps, in no time, Meng Chong would begin defeating Peak Great Grandmasters too. Right?

With his current strength, which he’d been building up for breaking into the Tongxuan Realm, it should be an effortless feat for him to defeat Peak Great Grandmasters.

“Your disciple, Meng Chong, has consecutive kills of Peak Great Grandmasters. The Heaven and Earth Overlord Blade that you wield got a power increase. You’ve broken into the second level of the Heaven and Earth Overlord Blade.”

Li Xuan was stunned. The Heaven and Earth Overlord Blade had levelled up?

There was no feedback from the Golden Finger following Meng Chong’s consecutive kills of Peak Great Grandmasters.

Xu Yan continued studying the Sword Intent. Wind was constantly floating around his body, containing an annihilating force within the qualified gentleness. It seemed as if it could wipe out the spirit and consciousness.

Li Xuan was inwardly thrilled, “Xu Yan doesn’t understand the Sword Way of annihilating Gods. Instead, he is studying the Sword Intent that directly counteracts Divine Souls!”

Once Xu Yan comprehends this, he will be able to slay half-step heavenly people with ease.

Even in the face of true martial arts heavenly people, he would have no fear at all.

Moreover, once the Sword Intent is understood, it can be used for both offense and defense.

“The improved version of the Dari Golden Body, I should ponder upon it as well, leaving no weak points.”

Li Xuan was deep in thought.

Canglan Island was calm and peaceful.

However, undercurrents were silently surging beneath the surface of the Inner Realm.

In a small village, Yanguo, an old man with yellowish skin, a slightly hunched back, and white hair lived in a dilapidated wooden house. He was currently carving a wooden sculpture, wood shavings flying all around. Soon, he drafted a figure of a middle-aged man with a cold, stern face, slightly ominous looks, and chilly eyes.

The old man scrutinized the statue, his eyes lost in a deep gaze as if he was in a trance.

A green-faced man in a white robe slowly walked over and stopped in front of the old man. He eyed at the statue in the old man’s hand for a while then broke into a quiet laugh, “Who could have imagined that the once celebrated Devil’s Child is still alive and secluded in this little mountain village.”

The old man continued to stare at the statue in a daze, seeming unaware of the green-faced man’s arrival.

The green-faced man didn’t mind, continuing, “When the Devil Lord established the Devil Cult, a seven to eight-year-old child used to follow him around. He was the closest person to the Devil Lord and was known as the Devil’s Child. He was the strongest and had the highest-ranking amongst the Nine Great Devil Lords of the Devil Cult. When the Devil Lord disappeared and the Devil Cult split apart, he fought off a siege from several other powerful individuals from the Devil Cult and retreated.”

“The name of the Bloodthirsty Devil Child disappeared from the Inner Realm for a long time. Who would have thought that the past Devil Child, who was once so celebrated, has retired in this small village.”

The Devil Child looked up at the green-faced man, “Talk straight to the point. One more nonsense, and you’re dead!”

The green-faced man said in a deep voice, “Elder Yin is dead.”

“So what if he died.”

The Devil Child didn’t care.

It’s not like Elder Yin was a member of the Devil Cult. What does his death have to do with him?

Even if Elder Yin was from the Devil Cult, his death would still have nothing to do with him.

“Elder Yin, he received a task – capture a person. Completion of the task allows one to enter the Gate of Lingyu!”

The green-faced man stared intently at the Devil Child.

The Devil Child lifted his head. His expression was unchanged, still calm and placid.

“Are you sure that capturing a person will grant access to the Gate of Lingyu?” The green-faced man raised his hand and tossed over a scroll.

The Demon Child opened it, saw what was inside, and excitement filled his face as he asked, “Where can this person be found?”

“Canglan Island!”

The green-faced man replied in a deep voice.

The Demon Child carefully placed the statue he was holding on a shelf, and then asked, “What’s your purpose? Capturing someone like this is no easy task, right?”

“Both Elder Yin and the other elders are dead. Dozens of peak Grandmasters have also perished. I’ve already contacted the powerful people from all factions. We’re preparing to attack Canglan Island together and force them to hand over the person.”

The green-faced man did not hide anything, revealing his entire plan.

After contemplating for a while, the Demon Child took out a wooden token and threw it to the green-faced man, saying, “Look for Leng Fu. If you want me to make a move, you will need your green-faced man Zijue to come and persuade me.”

The green-faced man was not frustrated. He picked up the wooden token, bowed his hand and said, “I will take my leave!”

He turned to leave but suddenly looked back and asked, “Is that statue of the Demon Lord?”

Ignoring him, the Demon Child picked up a piece of wood and devotedly started carving. Wood dust flew around while the outline of the statue started to emerge.

The green-faced man left.

Canglan Island, amid a forest thousands of miles away.

A green-faced man in a white robe stood in the forest. Behind him, were ten men in red robes and with green faces.

These red-robed green-faced men were ail peak Grandmasters.

The sound of footsteps echoed as a pale-faced man, as if he had been soaked in icy water, came walking slowly ahead, holding a long knife that gleamed coldly.

As he approached, a burst of chilly air surged forward.

The man stopped in front of a large tree, leaned against it, and a layer of frost color gradually emerged on the tree trunk behind him. The tree trunk with his back against it was slowly losing its vitality.

Looking at the man, the green-faced man in white showed a trace of dread in his eyes.

Soon, two more figures appeared.

Both of them were wearing hoods, not revealing their faces, obviously to concealing their identities.

After arriving, they glanced at the pale man, and one of them whispered in astonishment, “Is that Leng Fu? The Demon Lord Leng Fu!”

Leng Fu looked at the two people and sneered, “If you’re going to murder and steal, be open about it. Hiding your heads and showing your tails. If you’re afraid of being discovered, just don’t come out.”

The two hooded people snorted and ignored Leng Fu.

“Now that we’re all here, let’s go.”

Leng Fu spoke up.

“Not everyone’s here yet.”

The green-faced man in white spoke sternly.

Leng Fu furrowed his brows, showing obvious displeasure.

Suddenly, dozens of figures appeared, all of them peak Grandmasters!

All of those who arrived had their faces masked, concealing their identities, and they did not exchange much conversation with each other.

Counting the number of people, the green-faced man in white found that there were a total of fifty-five peak Grandmasters. Plus the ten behind him, there were sixty-five peak Grandmasters.

Speaking of strength, it had already surpassed the time when they surrounded the Chang Qing Pavilion.

Moreover, this time, Leng Fu and the other two were all half-step celestial beings.

If such a formation fails to capture one person, then the only resort is to pressure the other party to surrender the person in another way.

The matter about Su Lingxiu being related to the Gate of Lingyu, once spread, all the powers in the martial arts world will feel compelled to surrender that person.

This is about the martial way beyond the Grandmaster!

No power or strong person would give it up.

But if this happens, the secret of the Gate of Lingyu can no longer be safeguarded and will be known by a large number of people rather than a small secret known to a select few.

No one wishes to share secrets and opportunities unless they are forced.

“Either they hand over the person, or we will tear down Canglan Island!”

The green-faced man in a white robe spoke coldly.

Leading the ten red-robed green-faced men, they were the first to head towards Canglan Island.

Leng Fu followed closely behind with the other two half-celestial beings, and the group of peak grandmasters glanced at each other, silently holding pace behind them.

This battle is bound to be won!

The Chang Qing Pavilion must be destroyed!

The martial arts of Dahua will also disappear from the Inner Domain!
