She let out a sigh.

“Where shall we go next, young master?” she asked.

After leaving the Thousand Stars Lake, Hu Shan asked.

Xie Lingfeng pondered for a moment, and said, “Let’s stick around Sword Master Cliff, keep an eye out for any news concerning me.”

As a top powerhouse in the Inner Domain, Sword Master Cliff naturally has an information network for obtaining news from the martial world.

Just then, a shadow appeared midair, and a grey bird the size of a fist landed.

Tied to its leg was a message tube.

“News from a Flying Sparrow! What’s happened?”

Seeing this, Hu Shan froze, perplexed.

Flying Sparrow News is the often-used communication method in the Inner Domain’s major factions, raised and trained specifically for this, belongs to the sect’s flying sparrows, a near-spiritual bird species that is fast, concealed strongly, and can fly high, sending messages day and night.

Furthermore, they can recognize the sender, within a certain range, they can quickly find the person to whom the message must be passed.

Major factions establish Flying Sparrow News sites in certain areas, forming a large communication network, and there are only a few factions in the entire inner Domain that can establish such a vast communication network.

And the Sword Master Cliff is one of them.

That being said, they wouldn’t use Flying Sparrow News unless it’s an emergency or a special circumstance. The consumption every time it’s used is not small, requiring spiritual medicine to maintain the sparrow’s ability to communicate.

Xie Lingfeng untied the message tube from the sparrow’s leg and took out the message inside.

“Brother Xu has gone to the Seven-star Study Palace and has challenged the

nine stages of the Martial Arts stage …”

Xie Lingfeng’s scalp tingled slightly.

“Hiss!”

Hu Shan was shocked, ” Can Xu Yan already defeat a Great Grandmaster?”

The defender at the ninth level of the Seven-star Study Palace is a Great Grandmaster!

“No, Brother Xu has broken the rules, defeating ten peak Grandmasters at the ninth level and entering the Seven-star Study Palace’s library under my name.”

Xie Lingfeng handed the message to Hu Shan.

After reading it, Hu Shan joyfully said, “Young master, this is good news, your reputation will shake not only the Seven-star Study Palace, but also the Inner Domain.”

Xie Lingfeng wanted to cry but had no tears, “What kind of strength does

Brother Xu have and what kind do I have? Do you think I can bear this kind of reputation?”

Hu Shan thought, and agreed.

“To the Seven-star Study Palace!”

Xie Lingfeng said in a deep voice.

He must clarify that he is the real Xie Lingfeng, or else one day he might have to change his name. He can’t bear such a reputation.

As Xie Lingfeng set off for the Seven-star Study Palace, a woman in plain clothes in Wushuang Pavilion took a message from a sparrow’s leg, the more she read, the more shocked she got.

“Young Master Xie, You’re truly unparalleled!”

She let out a heartfelt sigh and said to her master, “Master, 1 want to go to the

Seven-star Study Palace.”

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster chuckled, “Just as I thought, you’ve got a crush on him!”

The woman in plain clothes rolled her eyes, ignoring her master, and said, “Grandma Yao, will you come with me?”

An old woman appeared in the courtyard and said, “Okay!

She is a Great Grandmaster.

Seven-star Study Palace. Even though it’s been three days since Xu Yan stirred things up, the waves he created still hadn’t settled. It had become a hot topic of discussion at the Seven-star Study Palace.

Everywhere you go, you can hear the students discussing Xu Yan’s feat of challenging the ninth level martial arts stage.

“Miss, Young Master Xie has arrived at the Seven-star Study Palace!”

In a certain standalone courtyard in the Seven-star Study Palace’s Inner Courtyard, Cui’er came running over, her face filled with excitement.

Upon hearing this, Du Yuying’s eyes lit up and she asked, “Cui’er, where is Young Master Xie?”

“I don’t know, but everyone in the school is talking about Young Master Xie. He’s defeated the tenth great instructor of the school at the ninth level Martial Artsplatform.”

Admiration filled Cui’er’s eyes.

“Cui’er, quickly find out where Young Master Xie is. I want to see him!

Du Yuying’s face reddened. She said eagerly.

“Yes, Miss, I will spend some more money and ask someone to help investigate.”

Cui’er was just as eager.

“Hurry!”

Du Yuying reminded.

Cui’er hurried away.

in the Jiansun Cliff retreat, the True Qi on Xu Yan’s fingers split into ten, each strand of True Qi was greatly solidified, precisely instead of being in a dispersed state.

“Finally, it was successful.”

Understanding the True Qi on his fingers, the True Qi erupting from his body began to split continuously, dividing into two… With every split, the True Qi became thinner and more defined.

In the end, there was a dense array of True Qi needles as thin as hair surrounding Xu Yan, transforming his entire body into a humanoid hedgehog.

“So, this is the mystique of True Qi. When I split the True Qi, I am also enhancing it, pushing it nearly to its limit. At this point, the purity of my True Qi has increased by about thirty percent.

“This is almost the limit of True Qi, and having comprehended the mystique of True Qi gives me some insight into the method of Tongxuan.

Xu Yan was very excited.

His power had improved once more.

With one thought, needle-like True Qi converged into one, and it formed a small dragon of True Qi.

This is not the dragon produced from the Descending Dragon Palm, but a dragon formed by splitting and combining True Qi.

“The power of my Descending Dragon Palm has also increased.

With control over True Qi growing stronger, especially after its split and recombination, the power and the attack mode of Descending Dragon Palm also improved.

“It’s time to break through to the Great Achievement Innate Realm.”

Xu Yan gathered his spirits, his eyes gleamed with anticipation.

After breaking through the Great Achievement Innate Realm, he will no longer fear Great Grandmasters.

Even if it was a peak Great Grandmaster, he would not fear them. Even if he could not win, the opponent could do nothing to him.

“To leap over a major realm in power,”

Xu Yan was buzzing with excitement.

With the completion of the Innate Realm, he would no longer fear Great Grandmasters. Once the Innate Realm is perfected, an ordinary Great Grandmaster could be killed with just one sword.

Once he broke through the Tongxuan Realm, sweeping over the Great Grandmasters would be no big deal!

Even those top peak Great Grandmasters in the Inner Domain, he could easily defeat them.

Xu Yan sat cross-legged, beginning to break through the Great Achievement Innate Realm. He drew the spiritual energy from the world around him, constantly refining it into the Innate True Qi.

“The spiritual energy in the Inner Domain is too gentle, less fierce and domineering, could this be due to the Heavenly Earth Spirit Mechanism?” “With just a thought, it allows for the spiritual energy from heaven and earth to enter the body. I’m almost able to control the spiritual energy now; I can sense a gentle rhythm between heaven and earth.

“Could this be the so-called Heavenly Earth Spirit Mechanism?

Xu Yan silently perceived.

The spiritual energy in the Inner Domain is too gentle; he doesn’t need to run his Cultivation Technique virtually. With just one thought, the spiritual energy from heaven and earth would enter his body, pass through the Heavenly Bridge, and refine into True Qi, directed to his Dantian Qi Sea.

“I wonder if it’s the same for the martial artists in the Inner Domain?”

Xu Yan pondered.

The Heavenly Bridge connects the spiritual energy at the border, allowing for the absorption and cultivation of the spiritual energy. Upon arriving in the Inner Domain, the absorption speed of the spiritual energy has become nearly inconceivable.

Even without the operation of the Cultivation Technique, with just one thought, the spiritual energy from heaven and earth will actively enter the body.

Xu Yan guessed that this could be the function of the Heavenly Earth Spirit Mechanism and wondered whether martial artists in the Inner Domain also cultivate in this way?

Rumble!

The True Qi within his body was continuously strengthening, and Dantian Qi Sea was continuously expanding as if it had truly become as vast as the sea. Breaking through the Great Achievement Innate Realm, he encountered no obstacles. Xu Yan, in one swift effort, has fully broken into the Great Achievement Innate Realm.

“This is the Great Achievement Innate Realm. With my current strength, even Fu Yuntian, the Great Grandmaster, can’t pose a threat to me.”

Xu Yan was silently evaluating, “Fu Yuntian is the top supervisor of the Seven­star Study Palace. He’s a Great Grandmaster with great achievement, one major realm higher than me, moreover, he belongs to the strongest amongst the Great Grandmasters with great achievement.

“He has cultivated the strong martial arts of the Seven-star Study Palace. He must have mastered several martial arts secrets.

“Moreover, he must have cultivated a secret technique which allows him to self-inflict damage, and explosively increase his power in an instant. So, defeating him is not so simple.”

Since the Seven-star Study Palace has a secret technique to self-inflicted damage for an explosive breakthrough in power, how could the martial artists of Seven-Star Study Palace not cultivate it?

It might not be necessary to use it, but it’s necessary to know it.

Once life is threatened, it can be used. Heavily injured is always better than death.

Dying with the enemy is better than dying alone.

So, without a doubt, Fu Yuntian must have cultivated this secret technique. Remembering the powerful palm of his Master defeating a Great Grandmaster Xu Yan felt a fire stirring inside, “Although I can’t defeat Fu Yuntian with a single palm, there should be no issue in defeating him.

“If I allow all eighteen golden dragons to strike together and bombard him relentlessly with dozens of blows, could that be enough to defeat him?” Xu Yan evaluated in his heart and had a rough estimate.
