Chapter 2892: Chapter 2892
After experiencing the Five-Colored Body Tempering Stones, Ye Liuyun realized they were truly valuable treasures. He promptly informed the others to take turns cultivating with them.
Especially the Soul Secret Realm—since it wasn’t afraid of depletion, he even had Tian Dao Ye send in the subordinates she had subdued to train there as well.
As for the Five-Colored Body Tempering Stones, Ye Liuyun wasn’t sure how much energy they contained, so he prioritized his own people first. The rest would have to wait until they reunited with Yu Xiaofeng and the others, after which elite members of the Vanguard Corps would be selected for training.
Li Daoyuan and Li Xinran were also included in this round of cultivation, treated no differently from the rest. They were deeply grateful, as Ye Liuyun hadn’t excluded them as outsiders.
Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun himself absorbed the remaining flame source energy that the Qiong Qi hadn’t consumed. Then, he entered the Ancient Desolate Secret Realm, simultaneously absorbing its primordial aura and refining the origin power.
By now, his Golden Crow Sacred Flame and Netherworld Ghost Flame had both manifested their own forms, capable of self-refinement without requiring his direct attention.
Meanwhile, chaos had erupted across the entire Demon-Slaying Star System.
The Zhou family’s experts had begun recklessly crossing boundaries in their search for Ye Liuyun’s demonic beasts, disregarding any offense they might cause to other families.
The Wan family’s powerhouses, meanwhile, were secretly investigating while also stationing people outside the Tang and An families, lying in wait for Ye Liuyun to take the bait. However, their presence was detected by the other two families, who grew suspicious of their intentions.
Both the Wan and Zhou families had recalled their expeditionary forces from across the Demon-Slaying Star System to guard their own territories, fearing unforeseen turmoil.
As a result, tensions arose among the four families, eroding their former harmony and replacing it with constant suspicion.
News of the Zhou family’s misfortune soon reached them. Qin Mengxi was stunned once again upon hearing it, immediately suspecting Ye Liuyun’s involvement. Given that the chaos mirrored the rampages of the Wan family’s demonic beasts, it was easy for her to connect the dots back to him.
"But how did he even reach the Zhou family in time?"
The thought nagged at her—the timing didn’t add up. She concluded that Ye Liuyun must possess some incredibly fast means of travel.
Yet ever since his return, he had remained quietly secluded in his residence, deep in cultivation without a single appearance. She couldn’t disturb him now, leaving her with nothing but her suspicions until their training concluded and she could finally seek answers.
During this period, Ye Liuyun’s advance energy had undergone significant refinement within the secret realm. Now, the moment he absorbed energy, the quantity of his advance energy immediately began to increase.
Coupled with the fact that his divine soul, physical body, and power of bloodline had all reached a considerable level, this was the perfect opportunity to advance his cultivation realm.
His clone was only slightly weaker in power of bloodline, but with both of them cultivating advance energy together, breaking through to the next realm posed no obstacle whatsoever.
The ancient aura within the Primordial Secret Realm was abundant and free for the taking, perfectly suited to continuously enhancing the quality of his advance energy and satisfying his demands for its purity.
In less than a month, both he and his clone had successfully broken through to the seventh level of the Dominator Realm. This breakthrough yielded advance energy of exceptional quality—even he could feel that the increase in power far surpassed his previous advancements.
However, he didn’t rush to leave. Instead, he remained until his newly attained realm had fully stabilized before finally exiting the Primordial Secret Realm.
The others had also recently elevated their cultivation levels. By now, they had all tempered their divine souls and completed body refinement, and were already seeking sparring partners to familiarize themselves with their newfound strength.
Ye Liuyun immediately summoned the Demon Vine and began training with it as well.
At this point, every one of them had not only advanced in cultivation but also solidified their divine souls and physical bodies, laying a robust foundation for future progress.
Only after fully acclimating to his Dominator Seventh Level realm did Ye Liuyun emerge from his clone’s spatial world with Li Daoyuan and Ye Tiandao to take a breather.
Now that his cultivation session had concluded, it was time to prepare for his next move—exploiting the resources of the Tang and An families.
But the moment he stepped out, a servant notified Qin Mengxi, who immediately rushed over to question him about the Zhou family incident.
"It was probably those rampaging beasts causing trouble at the Zhou family again. You can’t just pin everything on me just because you suspect me!" Ye Liuyun argued back.
Yet Qin Mengxi’s suspicions remained unshaken.
"I don’t care. Next time you go out, you’re taking me with you. I won’t rest easy until I see for myself!" she insisted firmly.
"Alright," Ye Liuyun agreed verbally, though inwardly he was already contemplating leaving the Qin family and distancing himself from Qin Mengxi.
Seeing Ye Liuyun’s agreement, Qin Mengxi visibly relaxed. She didn’t press the matter further and instead inquired about the results of his cultivation of the Buddha’s Light energy.
Ye Liuyun mimicked the effects of Li Daoyuan’s Buddha’s Light cultivation, releasing just a hint of its power.
A pleased smile spread across Qin Mengxi’s face as she observed this, feeling that her efforts hadn’t been wasted on him.
"You’ve just finished your cultivation session. Why not come with me to the family’s training grounds for some practice?"
Qin Mengxi was tired of sparring with the same familiar faces in the family and thought it would be refreshing for everyone to test their skills against someone new. She also wanted to gauge Ye Liuyun’s true strength.
After a brief consideration, Ye Liuyun agreed—it was a good opportunity to familiarize himself with the power of his new realm. Accompanied by Ye Tiandao and Li Daoyuan, he followed Qin Mengxi to the Qin family’s training grounds.
The Qin family elders held immense gratitude and respect for Ye Liuyun. Thanks to him, they had escaped the oppression of the Wan family and even risen to become the dominant force on the planet, gradually gaining influence over other major clans.
However, the younger generation of the Qin family had never met Ye Liuyun and were unaware of his relationship with their clan. When they saw Qin Mengxi leading a group in, their curiosity was instantly piqued.
Li Daoyuan, with his aged appearance, was clearly an elder. Ye Tiandao, dressed simply, seemed like a mere attendant. Thus, all eyes naturally fell on Ye Liuyun.
Adding to their interest, Qin Mengxi walked closely beside him, chatting animatedly as she explained the layout of the training grounds.
"Mengxi!" A Qin disciple called out to her, striding over.
Qin Mengxi didn’t even glance up, her expression one of weary resignation. Ye Liuyun caught the look and immediately understood—this was likely an unwanted suitor, and she clearly had no patience for him.
As the disciple approached, Qin Mengxi forced a polite smile and greeted him, "Senior Brother Wuyang!"
By then, the other disciples had gathered around. Qin Wuyang studied Ye Liuyun before asking Qin Mengxi, "Who’s this? An outsider?"
Qin Mengxi took the opportunity to introduce Ye Liuyun to Qin Wuyang and the others. "This is our esteemed guest, Mr. Ye Liuyun. Though he is an outsider, he has already mastered the Buddha’s Light energy."
She added the last part deliberately, ensuring no one would dare look down on him.
"Esteemed guest?" Qin Wuyang scrutinized Ye Liuyun, then smirked as he turned back to Qin Mengxi. "So you brought him here to spar with us?"
