Chapter 60

Ji Xian laughed after seeing the scowl on Xiao Yueyins face, Youre still too weak, once youre at Lihuas level, then Ill consider telling you,

She unhappily looked at him, not knowing how to respond. At this moment, Xiao Yueyin felt really small. It has been a long time since she felt this way. As an Elder of the Arcane Mountain, she was viewed as an important figure in the Mortal Desolate World. Everywhere where she goes, she was greeted with respect and her opinions were highly regarded. But in front of Ji Xian and Xia Lihua, she felt like an inconsequential child.

How did your Awakening go? Ji Xian suddenly asked.

Xiao Yueyin was caught off guard, Awakening?

A thoughtful expression appeared on her face, You mean what happened to me before, that was an Awakening?

Ji Xian calmly nodded, That was what Lihua called it. Apparently, she also went through the same experience after passing Ninefalls. It was only after her Eighteenth Life Destruction when she learned more about it.

Xiao Yueyin was quietly listening but her heart shook after hearing what Ji Xian said in the end.

Eighteen Life Destruction!

She began to breathe heavily.

Doyou.. know how many Life Destructions she went through? She struggled to ask.

Ji Xian indifferently shrugged, I dont know. Ive never asked, but shes probably hit the limit.

Xiao Yueyin was speechless. Her heart raced.

Wait a minute

She swiftly turned to him, Didnt you say an individual can continuously go through Life Destruction? How is it possible for there to be a limit?

...Oh, I guess I forgot to mention it. My words are still true, there are no limits, you can do however many Life Destruction you want as long as your Will is strong enough to withstand against the Rejection. However, after completing a certain number, youll hit a point of diminishing returns. Ji Xian explained.

What do you mean? Xiao Yueyin frowned, feeling a little irritated that he would forget to tell her such a crucial detail.

Simply, you wont see any more increase in strength so theres no reason to continue going through more Life Destructions.

She quietly contemplated. This information was too shocking! The Arcane Mountain only has records of Empress Han Lan surpassing the Ninefalls, but there were no details beyond that.

A big sister. a sister...?

For some reason, she felt a sense of repulsiveness from deep within her soul at this thought and it caused Xiao Yueyin to frown.

How much longer will I allow my bloodline to control me?

She gave it a deep thought before turning to Ji Xian. She carefully looked at him, as though trying to remember every detail of his face. For some reason, his presence always seems to bring her a sense of contentment.

Unknowingly, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

Thank you.

Her beautiful appearance caught Ji Xian by surprise. This was the first time he'd seen her smile. He let out a sigh, "It would be a waste to hide a face like that behind a veil..."

I can say the same to you. Xiao Yueyin quietly muttered before quickly walking away. Her ears were noticeably red.

She sat down, crossed her legs, and immediately began meditating. There was a lot she had to think about.

Ji Xian shook his head. With nothing more to do, he pulled out a book from his spatial ring. This was the book written by Empress Han Lan. He had been slowly reading it all this time. While it contains a great deal of information that had been rather helpful, Ji Xian cant shake the feeling that there was something more to this book.

...

Two days later, Xia Lihua finally opened her eyes. She took a minute to steady her breathing before standing up.

Ji Xian stopped reading and looked up with a smile, Howd it go?

She nodded, A little easier than before.

Youll get used to it the more you do it.

During these past few days, Xia Lihua has been busy inscribing new runes into the suit made from Heavenly Merit. Shes been doing this once a month. Although she still finds the process difficult, shes been gradually improving.

Xia Lihua noticed Xiao Yueyin cultivating on the side but didnt have much of a reaction.

Ji Xian chuckled, Theres a Sect to the North thats a hundred kilometers away. Once Yueyin finishes, well head there.

Havent you taken enough? Xia Lihua gave him a weird look,

In these past months, the two of them have been traveling all over Mortal Desolate. In addition to seeking out Formatics and sealing Chaos Tunnels, theyve also been visiting every city and Sects that they came across.

She didnt think much of it at first, but Xia Lihua quickly discovered that Ji Xian has been sneaking into their treasure vaults and libraries, taking not only their Divine Arts and Cultivation Methods, but also herbs, Artifacts, and whatever else interest him!

The worse part was that he had somehow managed to convince her to tag along as well!
