She infused them with her Qi as the other disciples watched her.
Zhao Lian took a deep breath and focused her aim to attack the bees buzzing all over the place above their heads, yet they didn't come down to attack them.
She waved her hand rapidly and sent one needle after another at the bees flying overhead.
All the needles hit their targets as Shen Yuan saw one bee getting hit after another.
"Good." Shen Yuan praised as he saw the precision of the attacks.
Zhao Lian blushed slightly at his compliment as she soon finished up with the rest of the bees.
"Let's collect the entire honeycomb and run away from here first; those bees should be returning soon as they might have felt something from here," Shen Yuan said softly.
The other disciples nodded their heads and stepped back to let Shen Yuan take care of the rest.
"Good job, Little Lian." Shen Yuan patted her head while she was returning, making her blush brightly as she lowered her head and shyly walked back.
He slowly moved forward while looking up at the honeycomb as he took out his scythe.
"Now, let's collect it," he said with a grin and slashed at the trunk of the tree, cutting it in half.
The disciples hurriedly moved back to avoid getting smashed by the falling tree.
Ling Mei felt her eyes twitching as she asked, "Couldn't you just have cut the branch holding the honeycomb? Why did you slash the entire tree?"
Shen Yuan hurriedly slashed again and stuck his scythe in the tree to prevent it from falling down. After securing it, he replied with a smile, "It's faster."
He picked up the entire tree and put it in his storage space.
[Just a reminder, you can't keep it inside the system space for long as it doesn't support life. Before all the eggs die, you better move them somewhere else.]
Yue Lan's voice echoed inside his head as Shen Yuan's lips twitched.
'Why didn't you remind me about this last time?'
[...]
Shen Yuan looked back at the group, "Let's head to the center of the Mystique Realm; we need to find the center of this realm."
The disciples looked at each other as they couldn't understand what he wanted to do there.
Nonetheless, the group followed after him as he began walking. None asked him for honey as he himself had collected it without the help of any of them except Zhao Lian.
As the beast came closer and the pressure increased, Shen Yuan felt something different in the beast's aura.
"FUCK! This beast has been infected by that Abyssal Qi as well?!" Shen Yuan's eyes widened as he cursed loudly.
His grip tightened on the sword as he remembered his beatdown. He took a deep breath, crouched down a little, and jumped above the sky.
"Heaven and Earth Severance: Mountain Cleaving!" he shouted in rage and gathered his purified Qi to slash at the huge beast.
The beast paused in its steps as it felt the Qi gathering above the sky. Its body shook as it felt a primal fear.
Shen Yuan didn't wait for anything as he slashed down with his sword, releasing all the gathered Qi at once.
The sky turned blue due to the enormous amount of Qi released.
The disciples' jaws dropped as they saw this scene in front of them. The pressure in the surroundings seemed suffocating to them as they finally had a glimpse of Shen Yuan's true strength.
"Is this Senior Brother's real strength?"
"It's so... overwhelming."
"I don't think any Inner disciple can handle him."

BOOOM!!
The slash connected with the huge monster and hit him squarely in the chest.
AUGHH
H
!
The beast roared in pain as the blade of Qi pushed forward and started drawing blood, inching deeper into the skin of the beast every second. But not even a second passed before the slash cleanly sliced the being in half from the center.
The massive body fell in different directions, flattening nearly the entire forest as it seemed as if a mountain had been placed where the forest used to be.
Shen Yuan looked at this scene from high up as he fell to the ground. "Haa... that was refreshing," he smiled in peace while continuing to fall downward.
The cool breeze hit his face. "Hmm...nice time to try those things out. I can test them for the future as well."
