Chapter 85: Making History

While Shen Yu and others were talking, Xiao Lan was focused on her awakening. The nine Qi clouds roared inside her as they went through every part of her body. The pressure of them was so much that Xiao Lan began to feel that she would die.

She didn't even know if she was doing the right thing or not. But she still persisted and continued to circulate the nine Qi clouds while keeping them separate from each other.

Because the circulation required her full focus, she didn't notice anything happening around her. Tiny fissures in the fabric of space were beginning to form around her. Not only that, but there was a small crack in the sky, which was getting bigger every second.

No one noticed it, and the sky continued to split apart as something akin to a pupil began to materialize in that crack. The one eye quivered, showing signs of opening.

However, before it could do so, it froze. The eye trembled as if struggling against something heavy and terrifying. Unfortunately, no matter how it tried, it didn't open. Then, it began to fade away as the cracks healed up, making the sky normal again.

What nobody noticed were two eyes that were visible amidst the dense Qi Mist of Lake. They looked above at the sky in disdain and then ignored it as if it wasn't worth their attention.

The eyes then looked at Xiao Lan, and the previous disdain turned into reverence. Suddenly, the mist began to boil as it shot towards Xiao Lan. However, instead of harming her, it entered her body and began to distribute throughout it, making the Qi present in her body very docile.

Xiao Lan was surprised as she felt the invasion of foreign Qi. But since she didn't feel any malice or threat from it, she allowed it to enter her body. Because of that, the Qi Clouds that were struggling against each other turned very docile and timid, and it was to such a degree that she could command with it a single thought.

'Master must have helped me.'

And that's what Xiao Lan did. In fact, this was by far the easiest step for her since she already had experience controlling Qi, and she also had a very docile Qi. It took only a couple of minutes before she formed her Qi Strand and placed it in her Dantian.

However, since she cultivated the Primordial Nine Coloured Pheonix Flames manual, her Qi Strand was crimson red coloured and emitted a fiery aura.

Xiao Lan jumped in excitement and easily crossed the lake by stepping on the stones' pathway. She didn't look at anything or even check anything. She was too excited, and in her mind, there was only one thing: she had to tell her master the great news.

Soon, she reached a wooden hut where her family was already waiting for her. They all looked at her with a warm smile and welcomed her.

After giving her sisters a wide smile, Xiao Lan skipped over to Shen Yu and hugged him tightly. She said in a muffled tone as she inhaled Shen Yu's scent.

"Master! I did it! I achieved the perfect foundation nobody had achieved till now. I'm now at Qi Refining Realm, directly, haha."

Seeing her enthusiasm, others also broke out in laughter and congratulated her. Shen Yu also praised hers and took her back to their table, where he had already prepared her seat.

They sat on their chairs, but Xiao Lan only looked at her seat. She pouted and then jumped, landing in Shen Yu's lap, who had just taken the seat.

Surprised at first, he wrapped his arms around her slender waist and let her have the best seat.
