“Brother Han! Brother Han!”

“We’re here!”

Between the Spirit Fields, Wang Da Niu and Lin Shihuang, each with a fine-tuned iron sword in hand, charged straight up to Han Ye. Taking a look around, they found no one’s traces, the expressions on their faces shifting to one of puzzlement.

Wang Da Niu, with a caring look on his face, asked, “Brother Han, are you okay? We heard someone was giving you trouble here, so we hurried over.”

“I am fine.”

Hearing their words, Han Ye felt a little touched, but merely shook his head.

“They could do nothing to me, so they just fled.”

“Being the senior disciple of the Outer Sect, Brother Han, it’s natural that many people below you may not accept this. Especially considering this is Pure Yang Peak, where all are iron-blooded men, a place full of competition and struggle. Conflicts are nothing out of the ordinary. Just be cautious in the future, Brother Han.”

After Lin Shihuang’s reminder, he glanced at Han Ye’s bare torso, with its distinct and striking muscle contours, akin to being cast in glass. He swallowed hard and exclaimed,

“The physical training and tempering Brother Han has undergone, your foundation is simply too perfect. I feel like your vigorous vitality has grown much stronger than it was a month ago, as if there’s an aura enveloping your entire body!”

“No wonder those guys were no match for you.”

Wang Da Niu wore a look of admiration, then sighed, “Brother Han, now that you have mastered Mountain Shaking Five Elements Gang and have become the senior Outer Sect disciple, can you teach us? Master sister is too busy and has no time at all.”

Han Ye responded with a light laugh, “Of course. But you must be prepared, my instruction is quite stern.”

“No matter how strict, as long as we can learn the Divine Power!”

“Exactly, as long as Brother Han is willing to teach, no amount of hardship matters.”

“Alright.”

Han Ye agreed and began teaching the pair over the course of the following period.

Between the waterfalls, the stream rushed boisterously.

“Thud!”

He swung a robust wooden stick, lashing across the two’s bare backs, the impact emitting a dull sound.

“Hit harder! Lift your legs, focus your mind, carefully feel the rush of water. Only then can you grasp the essence of punching.”

Han Ye ordered, standing in front of them like a drill sergeant, watching them undergo the baptism of the waterfall.

“Thump, thump!”

Whenever either of them exhibited the slightest laxity, Han Ye would strike them with the stick. And they weren’t allowed to use their True Qi to resist.

Gradually, the pain started to grow numb. Wang Da Niu started to settle in, his Dantian was slowly rotating, True Qi flowing within the bubbling water. Listening to Han Ye’s words, he concentrated on sensing the essence of the flowing water.

Water will direct you to the path of your punches.

How to swing your fists.

How to control your inner breath.

Han Ye glanced at the sky. Several hours had passed, then he looked at the bruises on the two people, being various shades of green and purple, he admired their perseverance, but didn’t express it on his face. He composedly said:

“Why don’t we stop here for today, and continue the next time. Maybe then you might be able to…” He didn’t finish his sentence, as he suddenly felt a strong current coming from the river.

The stream’s water flow began to slow.

“What is this…”

Seeing this, Han Ye was momentarily stunned.

With his eyes closed, Wang Da Niu stood amidst the waterfall, swinging his fists.

The surrounding True Qi began to move with his motions, carrying the stream’s spray, and converging into a series of water tornadoes.

Han Ye chuckled, “That’s the Water Gang! Azure Water Gang Qi!”

“Da Niu, you’ve done it!”

Wang Da Niu opened his eyes, slowly reigning in his strength, the water flow once again resumed its normal pace. Looking at his own fists, he almost couldn’t believe it.

“I actually did it!”

“Attribute acquired: Fire and Earth Spirit Root+3”

Han Ye’s smile grew brighter: “Congratulations!”

Although Da Niu was somewhat deficient from birth, through his arduous efforts day and night under the waterfall, gaining insight into the Water Gang, he finally integrated it with his fist technique.

“Da Niu, you’re amazing.”

A look of envy appeared on Lin Shihuang’s face, laced with a regretful expression, as if lamenting his own inability to grasp the true essence of the technique.

“Don’t rush it, mastering the Five Elements Gang isn’t as difficult as you’d think. All you need is the willingness to understand and learn. You can do it eventually.”

“We’ll call it a day then.”

Han Ye had been busy for the whole day, and now he finally had time to retreat to his own little dwelling to enjoy some quiet alone time.

He took out the Gathering Qi Pill given by Master sister.

Its effects were far better than the Qi Nurturing Pill, one pill was equivalent to five of the latter, although it was also true that it got absorbed slowlier.

He took out a greenish yellow elixir and swallowed it, it dissolved upon entering his mouth. A massive amount of medicinal power spread in his Dantian, and he circulated his True Qi daily to digest it slowly.

There were only five months left until the Sect’s Big Competition.

He would go nowhere in the coming time and focus all his efforts on preparing for the Sect’s Big Competition.

The days of cultivation always passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, five months had passed.

Han Ye finally understood why time flew so swiftly in a cultivator’s eyes. Immersed in cultivation, all matters around him were ignored as he plunged into his spiritual world.

Accompanied by the full unlocking of True Qi in his meridians, the pond in his Dantian turned into a rapid stream, running ceaselessly. In five months, Han Ye finally reached the River Realm of Qi Cultivation.

The accumulation of True Qi was incredibly abundant. True Qi flowed throughout his entire body, and he could use True Qi at will without worrying about insufficiency.

From an ordinary person to a cultivator in the River Realm of Qi Cultivation, he accomplished this in only a year and a half, partly because of his breakthrough in spiritual roots.

This half a year, he has been picking up Da Niu’s attributes, the purity of the Fire and Earth attributes increased, and he is now a cultivator with Dual Spiritual Roots.

During this period, there were people who tried to trouble Han Ye, but they all returned in failure, soundly defeated by Han Ye.

Since his breakthrough into the River Realm, he has been unmatched within the Outer Sect.

Even when facing cultivators of the Qi Sea Realm, he could easily defeat them!

If he encountered a Qi Cultivation Perfection, he might feel a lot of pressure. However, thus far, Han Ye hadn’t seen even one Qi Cultivation Perfection among the disciples of the Outer Sect.

He asked his senior sister about it.

His senior sister said that being at Qi Cultivation Perfection, if not for the pursuit of flawless roots, there is no need to stay in the Qi Cultivation Realm for too long, because it consumes too much time and it would be better to directly advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He asked what would happen if he advanced to Qi Cultivation Perfection.

She said that the cultivation speed during the Foundation Establishment Stage would indeed be much faster, and the roots would be perfect without flaws.

As usual, Han Ye went to find Da Niu to practice today, picking up the spiritual roots to boost his attributes.

IFire Earth Spirit Root (Z,8o/5OO):Dual Spiritual Roots, good talents, outstanding individuals could break through to the Golden Core, less talented ones can certainly establish foundations.!

Soon, the Dual Spiritual Roots can be picked until they reach perfection, when another transformation will occur.

As daybreak arrived, Han Ye knocked on Da Niu’s door.

“Da Niu, let’s continue today.”

“Brother Han, you are indeed diligent.”

Upon opening the door, Wang Da Niu said with a bitter smile.

Over the past months, Han Ye would wake him up early to cultivate every day, the two of them exchanging ideas.

Even for him, a person who works so hard, he admired Han Ye’s enthusiasm.

Doesn’t he need sleep to recharge?

Han Ye laughed and said, “With such good weather, how can you sleep?”

“I’ll show you the Mind Stabilizing Technique, it’s much more effective than sleeping.”

The two of them greeted each other early in the morning and began their usual exchange.

jPick up Attribute: Fire Earth Spirit Root +1J

jPick up Attribute: Fire Earth Spirit Root +1J

Han Ye watched as his progress gradually increased bit by bit.

Until one morning passed, the progress finally reached five hundred!

It was an exciting moment, and the description in front of Han Ye emitted a burst of purple light.

The brand-new, changed attribute appeared before him.

[Thunder Fate Spiritual Root (Purple):Rare Mutant Spiritual Root, comparable to Heavenly Spiritual Root, extremely rare, cultivation speed is extremely fast, before reaching the Golden Core, there can be no bottleneck.]

“A Mutant Spiritual Root?”

Seeing this, Han Ye was quite surprised.

Is it because the purity reached a limit, and the two spiritual roots fused?

Did it become a Thunder Spirit Root?

He had seen such descriptions in the scriptures.

Mutated and transformed spiritual roots, with attributes like thunder, ice, shadow, wind and so forth, have a cultivation speed not inferior to a Heavenly Spiritual Root. Unexpectedly, he happened to become one of them.

Han Ye’s gaze gradually became deep.

Now that he has a Thunder Spirit Root.

For this month’s Sect’s Big Competition, he felt more confident.
