Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 237 So what if I absorbed a little more? What's the big deal?

The next day, the sun rose.

Behind the Yunlan Sect, the glow of dawn pierced through the sea of ​​clouds.

A few rays of golden light fell, outlining a hazy edge on the exquisite figure of a woman in a green dress.

Her jet-black hair cascaded down to her slender waist; a gentle mountain breeze stirred, causing her dress to flutter gracefully, exuding a serene and otherworldly charm.

At one point, she seemed to sense something.

Her beautiful eyes peered through layers of clouds towards the horizon, her red lips slightly upturned, revealing a faint smile.

In a short while, the sea of ​​clouds churned, and a streak of light was rapidly approaching.

"Yun'er, is this the place you told me about?"

As the light fell to the ground, Xiao Bai looked around at his surroundings, his gaze finally settling on the beautiful and ethereal woman.

"You have no manners! You should call her 'elder sister'!"

With a shy yet reproachful look in her beautiful eyes, Yun Yun rolled her eyes at him, then gently raised her hand and, with a doting gaze, tidied his wind-blown black hair.

Xiao Bai was stunned, looking at the beautiful face so close to his, her eyebrows like distant mountains, her eyes like autumn water frozen with frost.

She smiled slightly, reached out her arm, and gently embraced her slender waist.

She lowered her head to her fair earlobe, and a delicate fragrance wafted around her nose. She couldn't help but take a light breath.

"Sister Yun'er!"

His voice was deep and gentle, and the deliberately drawn-out melody sounded tender and lingering.

A blush immediately rose on Yun Yun's pretty face, turning red all the way to her ears. The heat emanating from her profile made her long, slender legs feel slightly weak.

"Little hooligan"

With a soft, coquettish scolding, she raised her eyes, reached her jade-like hand behind Xiao Bai's head, gently patted him, and said reproachfully:

"Indecent"

Then she gently pushed him away, took two steps back, calmed her turbulent emotions, looked at a cave behind her, and said softly:

"To advance from Dou Wang to Dou Huang requires an exceptionally large amount of energy. This is where I used to cultivate in seclusion; it's one of the few places in the sect with abundant energy. You can focus on your breakthrough here without anyone disturbing you!"

"It's really a nice place!"

Sensing the abundant energy of heaven and earth around him, Xiao Bai nodded in satisfaction and looked at Yun Yun with a smile:

Thank you so much this time!

Even in places with scarce energy, breakthroughs can still be achieved, but it requires a long period of accumulation to complete the transformation, which takes an exceptionally long time.

"You little rascal, you weren't this polite back in the Monster Mountain Range!" Yun Yun said irritably, giving him a sidelong glance.

When the Monster Mountain Range was mentioned, her beautiful eyes glanced at him almost imperceptibly, her brows furrowing slightly.

Xiao Bailing was extremely perceptive and noticed that her expression was strange. She looked down at herself but found nothing unusual.

A sudden realization dawned on him: during the battle at Yunlan Sect that day, he was shirtless, but he was missing one thing.

"Does Sect Leader Yun think there's something wrong with my outfit today?" A hint of a smile flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes, his tone enigmatic.

"It's fine!" Yun Yun's strange expression vanished instantly, replaced by a faint smile that showed no sign of anything amiss.

"Alright, stop pretending!"

Xiao Bai took out the fragment of inner armor from his storage ring, held it in his hand, and sighed:

"It's not that I don't want to wear it, it's just that I accidentally tore it during my last fight!"

Are you alright?

Yun Yun's expression changed slightly. She took two steps forward, looking worried, and kept looking him up and down.

Even though I know he's standing right in front of me, I still can't help but feel a little heartbroken.

This inner armor, made of sixth-tier magical beast material and worn close to the body, is in such a state of disarray, indicating that he was in great danger at the time.

"Don't worry! That guy is just a three-star Dou Huang. If I hadn't been injured, I could have killed him with two punches. How could I let him break the thing you gave me!"

Mentioning this still makes Xiao Bai grit his teeth, but he notices the woman beside him raising her eyebrows, her pretty eyes glaring at him fiercely, her voice low and menacing:

"A three-star Douhuang, killed in two punches?"

"Haha, I was just bragging. That was a three-star Dou Huang expert, an invincible existence! How could that be possible!"

Xiao Bai chuckled awkwardly, inwardly speechless. He had been careless; there was a three-star Dou Huang right in front of him!

"snort!"

Yun Yun gave a soft snort, snatched the inner armor fragment, and looked at the cracks on it, a trace of heartache flashing in her beautiful eyes.

After a moment of gentle stroking, he raised his head, a hint of majesty in his eyes.

"Get into seclusion right now, you little Dou Wang, don't you know how dangerous it is outside?"

"Well"

Several black lines instantly appeared on Xiao Bai's forehead. Looking at Sect Master Yun, who was displaying her fierce power and adopting the demeanor of a sect leader, he helplessly cupped his hands in response:

"I will obey the Sect Master's command!"

"Pfft!"

Seeing Xiao Bai's cooperation, Yun Yun covered her lips and smiled, her gaze gentle. She stepped forward, gently embraced him, rested her head on his shoulder, and said tenderly:

"Focus on your cultivation. I'll keep an eye on things with the alliance, so don't worry!"

"Um!"

He gently stroked her hair, his eyes softening.

After a brief moment of tenderness, Yun Yun stood up, gently raised her beautiful eyes, gazed at that handsome face, and softly said:

Go!

Xiao Bai nodded slightly, turned and walked towards the cave, inwardly sighing.

The affections of Sect Leader Yun are so strong that they've almost turned him into a gentle, tender person.

As Xiao Bai's figure disappeared into the darkness of the cave entrance, a huge stone door crashed down, sealing the entire cave entrance completely.

Her gaze shifted from the heavy bluestone door to the fragments of inner armor in her hand. Her eyes trembled slightly, and after a moment of silence, she gently began to arrange them.

Inside the cave, Xiao Bai walked to the end. On the cave wall, a dozen or so moonstones emitted a soft light, and everything in the cave came into view.

Although the cave was simple, it was exceptionally clean, and one could almost smell a faint fragrance. On a large rock in the center, there was a blue futon.

With a light tap of his toes, Xiao Bai landed in front of the futon, sat cross-legged, and a cool breeze emanated from the futon, invigorating the mind.

"Heh. As expected of a sect with a long history, their foundation is impressive. This futon can even calm the mind!"

With a faint smile, he gathered his thoughts, formed a hand seal, and within a few breaths, entered a meditative state.

One's own heart substitutes for the heart of Heaven, while the heart of Heaven hangs high above.

With all distracting thoughts gone, I entered a state of selflessness in the blink of an eye.

A wisp of consciousness entered his body, gazing at the surging battle qi within his meridians. Releasing his suppression, the long-suppressed battle qi surged forth like a stampede of ten thousand horses, endless and unstoppable.

A powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted forth, controlling the turbulent battle qi energy within his body, and rapidly circulating it along the path of the cultivation technique.

As the cultivation cycle began, a strange sensation slowly emerged.

This is after advancing to the Dou Wang level, interacting with the energy of the outside world, and starting to continuously gather the energy of heaven and earth under a state of high mental concentration.

Outside the cave, the energy of heaven and earth began to surge wildly, gradually forming a huge vortex that, as it spun at high speed, resembled a giant spiral funnel.

Energy continuously gathers above, while the narrow end below leads directly into the cave.

"Has it started?"

Yun Yun looked up at this scene and murmured softly:

"Ah Niu, I hope everything goes well for you!"

Suddenly, her pretty face changed, and her expression turned very ugly. This was the forbidden area of ​​the Yunlan Sect, and she had just told A Niu that no one would disturb them.

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and with a flick of his wrist, a cyan longsword appeared in his hand. He turned and shouted:

"Who?"

"Your vigilance is quite good!"

A clear, cold voice rang out, causing the space to ripple slightly. A graceful figure stepped out slowly, her long, narrow eyes glancing indifferently at Sect Master Yun.

"Doesn't Her Majesty give prior notice when she visits other people's homes?"

"The same thing happened this time, and the same thing happened last time when they secretly took the unconscious Ah Niu from my room!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Yun Yun's tense heart immediately relaxed. She sheathed her long sword and said irritably.

Cai Lin's lips curled slightly, revealing a half-smile.

She approached slowly, wearing a long gold and red dress. The hem swayed gently with her steps, like a blooming datura flower, both alluring and dangerous.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Seeing that Cai Lin seemed ready to fight at the slightest provocation, Yun Yun remained calm. She glanced at the cave, smoothed a strand of hair behind her ear, and with impeccable composure, lightly teased:

"Heh. Are you sure you want to fight me here?"

Although she was no match for this woman, she didn't want to show any weakness in front of her, otherwise her arrogance would probably only grow stronger.

"snort!"

Looking at the increasingly thick energy vortex in the sky, Cai Lin's eyes narrowed slightly. She snorted coldly and looked at the blue stone door, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

I wanted to ignore this jerk, but I couldn't help feeling uneasy.

"What brings Her Majesty here so unexpectedly?"

Yun Yun wore a faint smile and spoke in a leisurely tone:

"If there is nothing else, please leave. This is a forbidden area of ​​our Yunlan Sect, and it is not appropriate to linger here!"

Cai Lin glanced at her coldly, then her figure flickered and appeared above the cave. Her beautiful eyes swept around, and her jade hands suddenly formed a series of intricate hand seals.

To Yun Yun's astonishment, the space above the cliff began to writhe and twist, engulfing the massive energy vortex.

Although she didn't know what the queen was going to do, she didn't stop her. She knew in her heart that the queen would never harm Ah Niu!

"Space Lockdown!"

With a deep shout, Cai Lin's hand seals suddenly changed, and a mysterious spatial fluctuation spread out, enveloping the entire mountain peak.

After doing all this, Cai Lin's smooth forehead was slightly sweaty, but she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, how am I supposed to get out of here if you lock it down like this?"

As the figure of Cai Lin gradually disappeared, Yun Yun became anxious and hurriedly called out.

A mocking voice echoed from the void, gradually fading away.

"You stay here and protect him until he emerges from seclusion!"

"I"

Yun Yun clenched her fists tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.

"Shameless!"

Despite her usual excellent self-control, she was furious at Cai Lin's actions. Looking up at the space blockade, she felt both helpless and anxious.

Taking a deep breath, he tried to calm his anger, knowing that she was doing this to protect Ah Niu and prevent outside interference with his breakthrough.

Thinking of this, Yunyun's mood calmed down a little.

Looking up at the sealed energy vortex above the cave, a complex expression flashed in his eyes.

Although she and Cai Lin had a long-standing feud, their concern for Xiao Bai was exactly the same.

"Fine, since she has sealed off the space, I can only stay here and protect her."

Talking to herself, Yun Yun then sat down cross-legged, placing the cyan longsword horizontally on her lap.

"Sister Cailin, we're coming back. Aren't we supposed to wait for Xiao Bai to finish his seclusion?"

Zi Yan reached out her small hand and touched the spatial seal in front of her. She blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion:

Why did you lock Sister Yunyun inside?

"Hmph! Since she says this is a forbidden area of ​​the Yunlan Sect and she can't stay long, then let her come!"

Glancing at the woman who had quieted down inside the seal, Cai Lin's red lips curled slightly, and she felt a strange sense of pleasure.

But seeing the even more vast vortex in the sky, a hint of resentment flashed in her narrow, beautiful eyes. This bastard, he really is trustworthy.

Having just ravaged the Yunlan Sect to this state, not to mention Yunshan, if those elders harbored any ill intentions and struck him at a crucial moment, although it wouldn't be fatal, it would still affect his breakthrough.

That vixen won't stay here forever!

"Ziyan, you stay here. If that woman is really in trouble, bring her out. I'll go back to the clan to make some arrangements and then come right back!"

Cai Lin bent down and patted Zi Yan's little head, speaking softly.

She knew about this girl's spatial talent; that void ability sometimes even she found amazing.

"All right!"

Zi Yan nodded gently, looking at Cai Lin's slightly pale face, and said worriedly:

"Sister Cailin, are you alright?"

"It's nothing! I just used up a lot of energy, I'll recover quickly!"

Shaking his head and smiling, Cai Lin stood up, took a step, and disappeared.

Inside the cave, the energy seemed to materialize, permeating the entire cave space. The colorful energy intertwined and swirled, forming dazzling ribbons of light, much like the aurora borealis.

At the end of these light bands, they connected to Xiao Bai, who was sitting cross-legged. At this moment, he was somewhat aware of what was happening in the outside world, but his spiritual sense did not detect any danger, so he ignored it.

The five elements and five directions within the dantian are emanating a powerful devouring force, frantically plundering the energy of heaven and earth.

It swallows in mottled energy as thick as an arm and exhales streams of pure energy thinner than chopsticks.

Then, through the cultivation technique, it is continuously transformed into the Five Elements Thunder Battle Qi.

"This little guy, how come he needs such a massive amount of energy to advance to the Dou Huang realm?"

Looking at the energy being rapidly absorbed into the cave and then constantly gathering again, Yunzhi was stunned, her beautiful eyes slightly dazed.

When she advanced to the Douhuang realm, this energy vortex was only a few feet in size. But now, what's going on with that energy vortex in the sky, which is over ten feet in size and still growing?

She didn't know.

Ordinary Dou Wangs can only slowly refine their power through cultivation techniques to advance to Dou Huang. How could they be like Xiao Bai, whose five elements transformed from the five thunder seeds in his dantian are like a giant beast that devours energy?

This kind of infusion and absorption requires a much larger and more terrifying amount of heaven and earth energy compared to others, but the foundation will also be more solid.

This is also the source of Xiao Bai's confidence in being invincible among his peers and even fighting across levels.

Time passed slowly, and several days went by in the blink of an eye.

Watching the energy still gathering, Yun Yun had become somewhat numb. From initial shock to later acceptance, and now...

It's okay, it's just a tiny bit more, what's the big deal?

until

"Old man, what are you doing?"

"I'm warning you, don't touch this seal, or I'll have Sister Cailin flatten you!"
