A wasted cultivation cultivator, whose senior sister comes to his door asking for pills at the start

Seeing him climb up the pole, Bai Liuli's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she scolded him reproachfully.

"Dream on. I only practiced dual cultivation with you to break through my bottleneck, not to become your cultivation partners."

Ye Yun shrugged and chuckled.

"At this point, what difference does it make?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Bai Liuli and said with a smile.

"Besides, aren't we quite compatible in dual cultivation?"

Bai Liuli turned her face away and pursed her lips.

"I don't think so."

"Yeah?"

Ye Yun shrugged and said with a smile.

"But I felt that Master was enjoying himself quite a bit before, and his voice was also..."

"..."

Bai Liuli seemed not to have accepted her own feelings yet, and tried to explain.

"I was just... going along with you, not wanting to disappoint you."

Despite saying that, Ye Yun, who has seen countless people, could easily tell whether someone was cooperating with him.

The master Bai Liuli in front of him was clearly enjoying it, but he stubbornly refused to admit it.

Therefore, he simply went along with it and continued.

"Oh... really?"

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and smiled.

"In other words, I haven't done well enough and haven't satisfied my master. I need to work harder in the future!"

"No, no need."

Upon hearing that the other party wanted to work even harder to cultivate with her, Bai Liuli quickly shook her head.

"This is fine as it is."

Although he said he was just cooperating with Ye Yun, his feelings didn't lie.

Whether Ye Yun truly met her needs can be seen from the fact that she would end her cultivation four or five times each time.

So what I said before was just a cover-up for my true feelings.

Ye Yun was naturally well aware of this.

But he pretended not to move and smiled.

"That won't do. I'll try a little harder from now on; I have to make sure Master is satisfied!"

"you……"

Bai Liuli was speechless for a moment. It wouldn't be right to ask her to admit to Ye Yun that she was being tortured to death like this.

Ultimately, she turned her face away, trying to change the subject.

"By the way, did something happen between you and Xian'er on your date?"

Bai Liuli believed she had some understanding of Ye Yun's personality.

If nothing unexpected happens, this date will be a wonderful experience.

So when he asked the question earlier, he should have answered happily.

But his conflicted expression at the time clearly indicated that something was amiss...

Seeing that the topic had suddenly shifted to this, and that there were no outsiders present.

Ye Yun sighed and nodded.

"Indeed, there was a slight mishap..."

Afterwards, he told Bai Liuli the whole story, just as he had told the Holy Lord.

After listening, Bai Liuli frowned and asked in surprise.

"It seems that the threat posed by the Ascension Sect is much greater than we imagined."

The other party actually has the ability to unite other Emperor-level powerhouses.

This alone is enough to prove that she is different from other evil practitioners.

Given time, the Ascension Sect might actually occupy an entire continent.

At that time, it will truly be the end of the world for the other forces on the continent!

Ye Yun nodded in agreement.

"Yes, that's why many forces now believe that the Ascension Sect must be destroyed!"

"They are all ready to join the extermination efforts."

The Azure Dragon Empire of the Southern Continent, the Sword Family of the Northern Continent, the Northern Continent Alliance, and the two sisters of the Alchemist Association.

And... the two holy lands of the Eastern Continent, this is already an extremely large force.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they have united the forces of half the continent!

As for the opinions of the cities in the Western Continent, the situation there is not yet clear.

But in Ye Yun's view, once they understand the cause and effect, they will definitely be willing to join the siege of the Ascension Sect!

Bai Liuli pondered for a moment and then asked.

"So, you've already united the necessary forces?"

A sharp glint flashed in Ye Yun's eyes as he responded.

"Excellent, now we just need to find out where those guys' headquarters is!"

The saying "everything is ready except for the east wind" perfectly describes our current situation.

In Ye Yun's opinion, the most likely candidate is the Wutong Mountains in Xizhou.

But the outcome depends on the investigation results provided by that senior colleague.

Upon hearing Ye Yun's explanation, Bai Liuli nodded approvingly.

"Now that everything is arranged, I can rest assured."

As she spoke, she didn't forget to add a word of praise.

"You and Xian'er have really grown up very quickly; you can already stand on your own now."

Ye Yun smiled faintly, showing no modesty whatsoever.

"Of course, don't you know whose apprentice I am!"

"..."

Bai Liuli, who had been suddenly praised, seemed a little embarrassed.

If she were praising something else, or talking about herself, she might be more modest.

But Ye Yun's praise was so overwhelming that she couldn't refuse it.

"Alright, let's take a rest first."

Bai Liuli glanced at him and pursed her lips.

"Later, you should also go into seclusion to attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm."

Ye Yun smiled and said this.

"No rush, I want to spend a little more time with my master."

As he spoke, he pulled Bai Liuli into his arms and took a deep sniff of her.

"Master, you smell really good."

This action made Bai Liuli a little embarrassed.

Her face flushed even more, and she turned her head to say something.

"You little bastard, you're a real monster..."

However, despite this, Bai Liuli did not struggle or push him away.

After her previous diligent training, she now truly longed for a gentle embrace to lean on.

So she simply rested her cheek against Ye Yun's chest and closed her eyes to rest for a while.

It wasn't until night fell that the master and disciple reluctantly parted ways.

Just as Ye Yun finished changing his clothes and was about to leave, Bai Liuli, who was still sitting on the bed, suddenly said something.

"My disciple."

Ye Yun paused for a moment, then turned around.

"Um?"

In the end, Bai Liuli only softly uttered two words.

"come on."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun grinned.

"must."

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave.

Suddenly remembering something, he turned around and approached Bai Liuli, who was standing there in a daze by the bed.

Bai Liuli raised her head and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing...?"

Before she could finish speaking, the other person silenced her with a kiss and wrapped their arms around her waist...

Two or three minutes later, Ye Yun finally released Bai Liuli, stood up, and waved to her with a smile.

"Alright, Master, I'll take my leave now!"

"I hope this farewell kiss will help me break through to the next level!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away as if he was afraid that his master would cause him trouble.

"This kid..."

Bai Liuli stared blankly at the spot where he had left, her jade-like fingers lightly touching her still slightly moist red lips.

The expression on her face was a mixture of helplessness and a smile that she herself might not even be aware of...

As we walked back from the nameless peak to the Creation Peak, the sky gradually darkened.

Hei Tong finished his day's cultivation and was sweeping the mountain with Xu Qingyan, holding a broom in his hand.

This was also Ye Yun's instruction earlier: to treat Creation Peak as his own home.

When Ye Yun returned, Hei Tong immediately looked over and tilted his head to ask a question.

"Master, have you finished talking?"

Actually, this time it seems to have taken even longer than before.

Ye Yun nodded slightly and said with a smile.

"Yes, I've gained a much deeper understanding of my master."

Black Eyes stared at Ye Yun with a strange expression, his face full of curiosity.

"Disciple is still very curious, what exactly did you and Grandmaster discuss?"

A familiar, refreshing fragrance could be faintly sensed emanating from Ye Yun.

It was obvious that it was the scent of Grandmaster Bai Liuli. Could the two of them possibly have had physical contact?

Ye Yun naturally didn't reveal anything about this, but simply chuckled.

"You'll understand these things later."

The "later" mentioned here naturally refers to the period after their master, Bai Liuli, agrees to make their relationship public.

Then there will be no need to hide anything anymore; naturally, they will know about our dual cultivation.

But now, Kuroko still looked puzzled, but didn't want to press him any further.

"Oh well……"

Seeing her expression, Ye Yun realized that he couldn't dwell on this topic for too long.

Otherwise, who knows, this little girl might actually guess something.

Immediately, he thought for a moment and changed the subject, asking a question.

"By the way, during my absence, have any letters been sent from outside?"

Upon hearing this, Black Eyes seemed to remember something.

"Oh right! Master, I almost forgot!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly took out an envelope from her storage bag.

Then, he handed it to Ye Yun and explained.

"This was given to you by Sister Han when you went on your date, Master. It seems to be a letter from the Azure Dragon Empire."

Immediately, Ye Yun's gaze also fell on the envelope in his hand.

As before, it was indeed a letter from the Azure Dragon Empire, and Azure was undoubtedly the one sent to him.

Ye Yun immediately opened the envelope and read its contents.

After reading it, his expression was a mix of laughter and tears.

This is mainly an apology, the gist of which is that they lost Bifeng.

It may be necessary to start the investigation into the Ascension Cult from scratch.

According to the timeline, this letter was sent when he had just arrived in Wanmeng City.

Clearly, the Azure Empire is unaware of Bifeng's fate or the situation at the Wutong Mountains.

Immediately, Ye Yun thought for a moment and took out a new sheet of paper.

Then, he would write and draw on it, and after he was done, he would put it into a new envelope.

After some thought, Ye Yun turned his gaze to Hei Tong.

"Xiaotong, I'm giving you an important task."

Upon hearing this, Kuro-tomi immediately perked up.

Since entering the Ancient Holy Land, all she has done every day is cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate some more. She's been so bored she's practically dying of boredom.

When I learned that there was a mission, I was naturally overjoyed.

Her beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Ye Yun curiously and asked.

"Master, tell me quickly, what's the mission?!"

Ye Yun handed over the envelope and gave instructions.

"Take this letter to Yuan Yi City, outside the Holy Land, tomorrow and give it to Sister Han."

"Remember, this is very important; you must get it delivered as soon as possible!"

The letter contained information about Bifeng's condition and important intelligence obtained during the interrogation.

Upon hearing that they could leave the ancient holy land, Hei Tong was even more delighted and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, Master! Your disciple will certainly deliver it!"

In the past, Ye Yun would naturally not have felt comfortable letting her leave the sacred land.

But now, his cultivation has reached the Core Formation Realm, which is incredibly fast.

As long as you don't go too far, you should have no problem protecting yourself.

Besides, he can't protect her forever; she'll eventually have to go out and experience new challenges and adventures.

Otherwise, she would only become a vase with high cultivation level.

This was something neither he nor Kurohime herself wanted.

So, given the opportunity, he was happy to let Kuroko gain some experience.

At this moment, Xu Qingyan, who was standing next to her, was still a little worried and couldn't help but ask.

"Master, this is such a small matter, why don't you let me handle it?"

She naturally didn't want Kurohime to take the risk.

Of course, the most important thing is the feeling that there's no need to take that risk.

But then Ye Yun shook his head.

"No, you have more important things to do."

Xu Qingyan was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion.

"What's more important?"

She thought Ye Yun was going to arrange some kind of mission for her to go out.

However, Ye Yun smiled faintly and explained it to him.

"I'm going into seclusion now, and you'll need to guard the cave entrance and protect me."

"Even if the sky falls and the earth cracks, don't let anyone disturb me."

As he spoke, Ye Yun's expression gradually became serious.

For cultivators, this is definitely one of the most important breakthroughs.

If the attempt is interrupted midway, it will be much more difficult to continue.

These serious and earnest words startled Xu Qingyan.

Immediately, she realized what was happening and asked in surprise.

"Master, are you... about to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm?"

Besides that, she really couldn't think of anything else that required her to act as a protector.

Ye Yun didn't hide anything and nodded frankly.

"Excellent! It's time to break through!"

Upon learning of this, Kurohime's eyes lit up, and she said with delight.

"Master! You're so fast!"

"Didn't you just reach the peak of the extraordinary realm recently?"

For her, the higher her master's cultivation level, the greater the benefit to her.

Therefore, she was one of the people who most hoped Ye Yun would make a breakthrough.

However, the other party's incredible speed of improvement still shocked her.

Not long ago, his cultivation level was still very low.

It hasn't been that long, and they're already building a road?

Ye Yun patted her head and said with a smile.

"Don't envy your master. When you reach the peak of the extraordinary realm, you might be able to do it just as fast as I have."

"Really? That's great!"

Black Eyes was overjoyed; she trusted her master's words to a large extent.

Of course, Ye Yun wasn't trying to coax a child here.

Given Nangong Jiutian's high regard for her and his recognition of her talent, her future prospects are indeed immeasurable.

Xu Qingyan bowed respectfully, her face full of joy.

"Congratulations, Master! You are about to advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

Ye Yun waved his hand and immediately said.

"Stop, stop, I haven't broken through yet, I can't celebrate at halftime."

Ye Yun resolutely opposed such an unexpected flag-raising ceremony and the idea of ​​opening champagne at halftime!

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan paused for a moment, then chuckled softly.

"Then I wish you success, Master!"

"Hmm...that's a good option."

Ye Yun nodded in satisfaction.

After explaining the follow-up matters to the two women, he prepared to go into seclusion.

As Ye Yun entered the cave, a series of protective barriers were set up.

Then Xu Qingyan stood guard outside the cave, sat down cross-legged, and opened her full divine sense.

In this way, she can sense any movement around Creation Peak immediately!

After finishing, she couldn't help but turn her head and glance at the cave behind her, feeling very curious.

"I wonder what kind of Dao power Master will be able to comprehend?"

Normally, what kind of profound power a person can comprehend is related to that person's nature.

For example, a cultivator who is inherently fond of killing will not be able to comprehend the power of healing, and vice versa.

Therefore, some top experts can even judge a person's personality by looking at their power of the Great Dao!

Therefore, she was quite curious about Ye Yun's power of the Great Dao...

As for Kuroko, she returned to her room and happily prepared the things she might need for her descent down the mountain.

This was her first time descending the mountain as a disciple of the Ancient Holy Land, and she was still a little excited.

After packing her things, Kurohime left the room.

As per Ye Yun's instructions, she needed to deliver the letter as soon as possible, so she planned to set off overnight.

As she left the room, she glanced in the direction of Ye Yun's cave and secretly cast a wishful look at him.

"I hope Master can break through smoothly."

……

Inside the cave.

Ye Yun sat cross-legged on a futon, with four jade boxes in front of him, each containing a pill.

Three of the jade boxes contained discarded pills.

"Reshape!"

Ye Yun stretched out his hand and activated his abilities on the three pills one after another.

[Consuming 1000 Creation Points, currently reshaping an Eighth Rank...]

As Ye Yun continued to reshape, he completed the process one after another.

The three rotten pills quickly transformed into various flawless pills!

The entire cave was soon filled with the rich fragrance of elixirs.

Looking at the four pills in front of him, Ye Yun asked curiously.

"Senior Nangong, how should I take these pills?"

If it's just one, then there's nothing to worry about; you can just eat it.

But there are four high-grade pills in front of me, I can't just swallow them all.

Soon, Nangong Jiutian said with a smile.

"Is that even a question? Just swallow them all at once!"

"Huh? Swallow it all at once?"

Ye Yun paused for a moment, then couldn't help but ask.

"Won't this... kill people?"

Any one of these four pills in front of you would be incredibly potent.

Not to mention four of them combined, they'd probably burst from the pressure.

Nangong Jiutian scoffed at this and said indifferently.

"Would I lie to you? These pills are mainly for functional purposes; their medicinal power isn't as potent as you think."

"Furthermore, if you want to break through in a short time, you need a stronger drug effect to get through it."

Having said all that, Ye Yun remained silent for a moment.

Then, he took a deep breath and said.

"Alright, I'll trust you this once."

After all, it was Nangong Jiutian who suggested the elixir, and now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to trust her.

With a flick of his hand, Ye Yun sent the four pills flying into his palm one after another.

After that, he looked at the pills in his palm, gritted his teeth, and swallowed them all.

Then, he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, allowing himself to quickly enter a meditative state.

As soon as the four pills were swallowed, the burning sensation quickly filled my entire body!

He sensed that one of the most potent medicinal forces was enveloping three other, slightly weaker medicinal forces.

They intertwined, converged, and condensed into a terrifying force that began to rampage through Ye Yun's body!

"They're here!"

Faced with the surging medicinal power, Ye Yun could only desperately try to refine it, but there was still far too much of it!

Damn it... can this really be digested?

If refining medicinal power is like drinking water, then this medicinal power is like someone forcibly pouring a bucket of water into his mouth!

Soon he felt his whole body swell violently, as if he would explode and die at any moment!

From the outside, Ye Yun's body was radiating various colors of light.

The whole process was extremely painful, as if the meridians and flesh of the whole body were being torn apart.

……

Time passed slowly, and Ye Yun, in his pain, gradually lost his sense of time.

He felt as if he were melting, his soul gradually breaking free from the constraints of his body and floating upwards.

The physical pain gradually disappeared, and the perception of everything around them became clearer.

Whether it's the movement of air, the drifting of dust, or even the workings of the laws of the world...

Gradually, he felt himself fall into an ocean formed by countless colorful clouds.

The entire sea of ​​colorful light resembled a giant vortex, revolving around the golden sphere at its center.

It seems that there, is the center of everything...

"Where...is this place?"

Ye Yun gradually regained consciousness and looked around at everything with confusion.

Suddenly, he remembered a legend he had read in an ancient book.

Some say they have touched upon the very essence of this world.

There is a sea there, a sea of ​​the Great Dao, where all the rules of the Great Dao of the world converge.

That is the origin of all things, and the birthplace of this continent!

Just then, a deep voice echoed in his mind.

"Go to the heart of the sea, to touch the root of it all..."

The center of the sea?

Ye Yun felt strange, but his gaze couldn't help but turn forward.

At this moment, he was somewhere in this sea of ​​colorful light, and a faint sense of summons came from a place in front of him.

Ye Yun gazed at the golden sphere of light, as if something within it was calling to him and guiding him back to his past.

Unbeknownst to him, Ye Yun drifted away little by little, heading towards the depths of the sea...

……

During the time Ye Yun and Hong Xian'er were in seclusion, both the ancient holy land and the area outside it were exceptionally peaceful.

The once bustling and vibrant continent suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

But similarly, it's somewhat like the calm before the storm...

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

On this day, everything at the ancient sacred site was as usual.

The menial disciples were busy with their chores, thinking about how they could advance to the outer sect.

Both outer and inner disciples were cultivating in various places, dreaming of advancing to the Core Formation realm as soon as possible.

The nine peaks, five halls, and two offices were all busy with their own affairs.

But they didn't know that this day would be a day that would be recorded in history!

In a school somewhere in the holy land, Yu Hongling, a disciple of the Holy Maiden, is sharing her cultivation experience with a group of inner disciples.

"The key to breaking through the Innate Realm lies in..."

She shared her experience of breaking through to the Innate Realm with everyone.

But soon, as if noticing something, she reprimanded the disciples sitting by the window.

"You lot, all of you, listen carefully! What are you looking out the window for?!"

At this moment, one of them pointed outside and said with an incredulous expression.

"Master, Senior Sister, look outside!"

"Huh? What do you mean outside?"

Yu Hongling frowned slightly, quickly walked to the window, and peeked out.

This sight startled her, and her beautiful eyes widened in surprise.

"This is……"

In the sky above the ancient sacred land, streaks of fiery red mystic energy converged in one direction.

They transformed into blazing flames, condensing into a magnificent fire lotus that slowly bloomed.

Then, from within that magnificent fire lotus, a crimson pillar of light shot into the sky, soaring straight to the heavens!

The scorching temperature, accompanied by overwhelming pressure, swept across most of the holy land's sky!

Seeing this, Yu Hongling's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she opened her mouth.

"Master...she actually broke through!"

Meanwhile, the rest of the busy people in the holy land.

Whether they were disciples, elders, or even those who were sparring, everyone stopped what they were doing.

They all looked up at the crimson fire lotus.

When they saw where the fire lotus had appeared, it was clearly coming from the direction of the Holy Maiden's Palace.

Everyone was greatly shocked and exclaimed with joy.

"It's the Holy Maiden! The Holy Maiden has built a path!"

This is undoubtedly a great thing for the ancient holy land!

This means that their Holy Maiden has officially stepped into the ranks of the strong from being a so-called young prodigy!

This extraordinary phenomenon was noticed not only by the ancient holy land, but also by the forces in the vicinity and even within the city.

Everyone looked towards the direction of the ancient holy land, marveling at which genius had forged the Great Dao!

However, just as the holy site was reeling inside and out.

Suddenly, somewhere in the ancient holy land, another golden beam of light shot into the sky!

Compared to the fiery lotus that bloomed in the former, this time, the golden color in the sky transformed into a huge cauldron!

Even more oppressive than the previously seemingly world-destroying fire lotus, this cauldron exudes an even stronger sense of pressure!

Seeing this, everyone was shocked and gasped.

"Wow... there's an expert?!"

Within the ancient sacred land, everyone was still reeling from the extraordinary phenomenon at the Holy Maiden's Palace.

This sudden celestial phenomenon drew their attention involuntarily.

This has also sparked much discussion.

"This direction... seems to be towards Creation Peak."

"Creation Peak? Could it be Peak Master Ye?"

"Impossible! Wasn't he in the Life and Death Realm before? How could he advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm so quickly?"

"..."

Pei Yuyan, in the Siwu Hall, listened to the discussions around her and stared blankly at the golden cauldron outside the window.

Her expression was incredibly complex at this moment. Although she had been feeling relieved, she was still in a daze when she actually reached this point.

"Is he... really about to forge the Great Dao?"

Tie Xinyu, standing atop Fire Hammer Peak, nodded in satisfaction.

"As expected of the guy I chose, he's really impressive! I need to work even harder too!"

Inside the discarded pill room, Gu Linlang, who was fiddling with the discarded pills in her hands, was also stunned when she looked at the golden cauldron outside the window.

"Master...it's done so quickly?"

On the nameless peak, Ye Yun's two senior sisters, Xueyi and Lingdie, were also looking at the strange phenomenon on the neighboring mountain in surprise.

Blood-Clad opened his mouth, his eyes filled with shock.

"Incredible! In less than a year, my junior brother has already reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao. Truly defying the heavens!"

Lingdie, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement.

"My junior brother... he is indeed very, very strong!"

In a round pavilion atop a mountain somewhere in the sacred land, Fei Qingluo was enjoying a hearty drink while gazing at two beams of light in the distance.

Her face was full of relief.

"To live alongside such a prodigy is truly a joy!"

Meanwhile, Hei Tong and Xu Qingyan on Creation Peak were completely surprised.

Feeling the overwhelming pressure emanating from the cave, both women were deeply shocked.

"Wow, Master is so amazing!"

Her dark, beautiful eyes widened in astonishment.

Xu Qingyan, who was standing to the side, also nodded in agreement.

"My master... he might really be able to usher in a new era in the future."

The fact that such a powerful celestial phenomenon occurred during Ye Yun's advancement to the Dao Foundation stage is enough to imagine his future strength!

At this very moment, in a study in the ancient sacred site.

Ancient Dao Saint Master Jin Liuli gazed at the two extraordinary celestial phenomena outside the window, a rare smile appearing on his face.

She stood up, slowly walked to the window, and gazed at the two strange phenomena, sighing with emotion.

"Truly, Heaven blesses our ancient sacred land!"
