Inside the Wilderness Martial Arts Academy, Du Yuying was staring out of the window as if she was thinking about someone.
Cui’er walked in.
“Miss, once we go to the Ling Domain, will we no longer see Young Master Xu?”
Du Yuying turned her head, looked at her, and softly said: “No.”
“Then, Miss, when will you and Young Master Xu be together?”
Expectation filled Cui’er’s face.
With a slightly blushing face, she thought that if her mistress got together with Young Master Xu, she could finally become a companion maid.
Du Yuying sighed faintly, saying, “I don’t know either.”
She was considering whether to pay a visit to Canglan Island and deepen her relationship with Mother Xu.
…
Ling Domain, Yuzhou, Mang Mountain.
A silhouette rushed out from Mang Mountain at an incredible speed, as fast as a flash of lightning, disappearing into the skyline in the blink of an eye.
Following this silhouette, another figure also leaped out from Mang Mountain with an equally swift speed. Its Divine Soul power was fully displayed, intimidating all in its path.
Refining God Heavenly Man!
Xu Yan inwardly sighed on the unpredictability of life. He killed Dai Yingying, but Wen Yong was the one blamed. The Dai Family didn’t come after him, the real murderer.
But what he didn’t expect was that he would still get involved with the Dai Family!
No, it was the Dai Family that were picking a fight with him.
After absorbing the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi and accumulating enough foundation, Xu Yan successfully broke through to the Divine Intent State, even transforming into a Mountain and River Divine Bone, resulting in a massive increase in his strength.
Upon entering the Divine Intent state, one steps onto the path toward becoming an Enlightened Martial Artist.
The strength of a Refining God Heavenly Man lies in its Divine Soul, and under the coverage of the Divine Soul’s power, insects and ants are within their control.
However, Xu Yan was not certain whether the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi he found was the one Yu Xiaolong had mentioned.
Therefore, after Xu Yan broke through to the Divine Intent State and consolidated his realm, he kept the remaining Earth Spirit Jade Marrow and prepared to search for the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi that Yu Xiaolong had found.
If there was another Earth Spirit Dragon Qi that he could collect and bring back to the Inner Domain, both Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu had enough foundation to complete the transformation after breaking through.
As for the pursuit by the Jade Spirit Sect and the Su Family, Xu Yan was completely unconcerned. His confidence had greatly increased after breaking through to the Divine Intent State, capable of slaying even a Great Heavenly Martial Artist.
Even when facing a Refining God Heavenly Man, he might be able to challenge them. If he couldn’t win, he could still retreat easily.
While traveling through Mang Mountain, following the guidance of Yu Xiaolong looking for the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi, he didn’t find it, but he did encounter a Great Heavenly Human Elder from the Dai Family.
With the death of Dai Yingying, the blame was on Wen Yong, Xu Yan didn’t care when he encountered the others. After all, they didn’t know that he was the actual murderer.
However, when the Elder from the Dai Family discovered that Xu Yan was a hunted person by the Jade Spirit Sect and Su Family, he couldn’t resist the opportunity to capture Xu Yan and hand him over to the two forces in exchange for their help in capturing Wen Yong.
Xu Yan couldn’t help but sigh. It seemed he was destined to be an enemy of the Dai family.
Since the other party was being aggressive, wanting to capture him for the Jade Spirit Sect and Su Family, Xu Yan wouldn’t be polite. He had just broken into the Divine Intent State, so he decided to use the Elder from the Dai Family to test the power of his new state.
He immediately slashed out with his sword, covering the landscape. His Sudden Wind Sword Intent was as ferocious as a raging wind, harassing the other party’s mental consciousness in an instant.
After breaking through to the Divine Intent state, Xu Yan’s Sword Intent also had transformed, becoming stronger.
The Elder from the Dai Family was shocked, feeling as though his consciousness was immediately blurred, as if being oppressed by a huge mountain, even experiencing an irrepressible sense of Heavenly will.
He roared in anger, the might of the Great Heavenly Human Ruin bursting forth in defiance of the heavy pressure like a mountain, the sensation of Heavenly Intent. However, he then felt an intense wind assaulting his mental consciousness.
A sensation of tearing pain in his consciousness caused him to feel as if he lost control of his consciousness and physical body in a split second. By the time he regained some clarity, the radiant sword had already overwhelmed him.
Xu Yan had killed the Great Heavenly Human Martial Artist from the Dai Family with a single sword strike, getting a clearer judgement of his own strength.
His Divine Intent could suppress the Lesser Heavenly Human, but it couldn’t suppress the Greater Heavenly Human completely. However, it could suppress the mental consciousness of the Greater Heavenly Human, preventing them from fully utilizing their strength.
From this, he inferred that his current Divine Intent was somewhat weaker than the Divine Soul power of a Refining God Heavenly Man, and he might not be able to resist the Divine Soul power of a Refining God Heavenly Man fully.
However, if he released the Sudden Wind Sword Intent, he could indeed clash with the Divine Soul power of a Refining God Heavenly Man.
The strength of a Refining God Heavenly Man also didn’t rely solely on their Divine Soul power.
“I am invincible below the Refining God Heavenly Man!”
Xu Yan exhaled a breath and had a clear judgement of his strength in the Ling Domain.
“I wonder how strong the geniuses in the Transcendent Spirit Sect of the Ling Domain are? I’m confident that I can suppress those within the same realm. If someone is one major realm stronger than me, can I also defeat the genius of the Transcendent Spirit Sect?”
Xu Yan couldn’t help but grow curious.
For an instant, he had the desire to confront the geniuses of the Transcendent Spirit Sect.
Of course, the Transcendent Spirit Sect was high above the rest, and even their geniuses were no exceptions. They might not come to the land of Yuzhou.
After killing Dai Family’s Great Heavenly Human, Xu Yan continued the search for the Earth Spirit Dragon Qi.
Unexpectedly, he encountered another Great Heavenly Human of the Dai Family.
Moreover, this person turned out to be Dai Yingying’s father, the contemporary head of the Dai Family, Dai Yiping!
Power of a late-stage Great Heavenly Human!
From the moment Dai Yiping made his move, Xu Yan knew that the people of the Dai Family were seeking their own death.
Since that was the case, he would grant them that wish!
Therefore, he killed Dai Yiping.
