“What?!”

Ji Wuxia’s heart suddenly pounded violently.

What kind of concept was that?

Didn’t that mean that Lu Xiaoran’s strength could already be said to be the number one in the Great Zhou Empire? No, even in the entire continent, he was probably the peak combat strength!

“Senior Brother, do you have any proof?”

Yun Lige scratched his head.

“I’m only guessing. The first reason is that Master’s cultivation technique is a top-grade Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique. Since you became Master’s disciple, you should have also obtained a top-grade Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique, right?”

Ji Wuxia nodded.

“Very good.”

On this point, Ji Wuxia had to admit that Lu Xiaoran was terrifying.

A top-grade Martial Monarch Realm expert. In the entire continent, Martial Monarch Realm cultivation techniques were already rare, let alone top-grade Martial Monarch Realm cultivation techniques.

Moreover, he had even easily bestowed it to his disciple.

His behavior of not caring about the top-grade Martial Monarch Realm cultivation technique had already made him an existence that ordinary people could not reach.

“Secondly, you also know that the rules of our Zhishui Peak have to do with living ignobly. Master has clearly said that we have to hide our cultivation realm and are never allowed to reveal it. However, it was still effortless for Master to defeat your guard, which means that he’s at least above the Creation Realm. Moreover, it’s natural for him to hide a few cultivation realms. That is why I said that Master’s cultivation level is at least at the Martial Monarch Realm.”

Hiss!

Ji Wuxia could not help but gasp.

She had actually become a disciple of someone whose strength was not inferior to a Martial Monarch Realm expert!

Although this Martial Monarch Realm expert liked to live ignobly, he was still a Martial Monarch Realm expert nonetheless!

Seeing Ji Wuxia’s shock, Yun Lige did not find it funny.

Back then, hadn’t he also been shocked along the way like Ji Wuxia?

The current him had long changed his mind. He was no longer shocked, but happy that he had found such a powerful master.

“Alright, Junior Sister, I think we should still focus on cultivation. Although Master is powerful, he can’t protect us forever. We still have to rely on our own efforts.”

Ji Wuxia nodded and immediately took out a small porcelain bottle from her storage bag. There were three Essence Energy Pills lying inside.

“Senior Brother Yun, thank you for helping me answer my doubts. Here are three Essence Energy Pills. Consider it a little gift from Wu Xia. I would have given Senior Brother Yun more, but this time, I only brought thirty Essence Energy Pills with me when I left the Imperial Palace. I still have to use them for cultivation. I hope Senior Brother Yun won’t mind.”

Of course, although she said that, three Essence Energy Pills was actually already a lot.

Even if she was the princess of Purple Peace Imperial Palace, she only received ten Essence Energy Pills in the monthly offerings.

However, Yun Lige did not receive it. Instead, his expression was somewhat strange.

Ji Wuxia raised her brows slightly.

“Senior Brother, could it be that you think it’s too little?”

Yun Lige shook his head.

“That’s not what I meant. However, Junior Sister, you’ve just entered the sect, so it’s not appropriate for me to accept your gifts. Moreover, you also need more medicinal pills to cultivate your cultivation technique.”

With that said, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his storage bag.

“Take these Essence Energy Pills and use them first.”

Ji Wuxia’s face immediately twitched violently.

The small porcelain bottle was filled with Essence Energy Pills. According to her initial estimation, there were at least 200.

Where did Yun Lige get so many medicinal pills?

Wasn’t he just a small disciple of the Heaven Demon Sect?

Was the Heaven Demon Sect this wealthy? Did all of their disciples have a few hundred Essence Energy Pills each?

As if sensing her confusion, Yun Lige smiled and said,”It’s impossible for the Heaven Demon Sect to give us so many medicinal pills. This was given to me by Master. After we use them, we can ask Master for more. If we want more, we can get 1,000 pills at a time. It’ll be enough for a long time.”

Ji Wuxia’s face could not help but twitch fiercely again.

At this moment, she was fully convinced that Lu Xiaoran was a Martial Monarch Realm expert.

In fact, Lu Xiaoran was naturally not a Martial Monarch Realm expert. His current cultivation was only at the third level of the Shattering Void Realm.

All of this was just Ji Wuxia and Yun Lige’s own imagination.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoran was opening gifts in his room.

When Yun Lige advanced to the master level, he was given a huge gift bag. After he advanced to the perfected master level, he also received ten small gifts.

He opened his gift bag.

mid-grade Heaven Realm Spirit Marrow Pill x100.

Top-grade Heaven Realm array formation, Immovable Bright King Formation x1.

High-grade Heaven Realm Dragon Burial Spear x1.

…

Lu Xiaoran had gotten a lot of good stuff. Just like how the Essence Energy Pill was an upgraded version of the Qi Gathering Pill, the Spirit Marrow Pill was an upgraded version of the Essence Energy Pill.

One Spirit Marrow Pill was even comparable to a hundred Essence Energy Pills.

The other items were also all Heaven Realm treasures.

It seemed that as Lu Xiaoran’s disciple’s cultivation level increased, the items he obtained from the gift bag also became better and better.

If his disciples all became Martial Monarch Realm experts in the future, wouldn’t that mean that he could receive even better items?

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoran opened the huge gift bag.

Top-grade Martial Monarch Realm Realm cultivation technique—Great Void Chaos Steps.

The Great Void Chaos Steps was a peerless movement technique. It allowed the user’s speed to increase along with his cultivation. With this movement technique, one could travel 50 kilometers, 500 kilometers, 5,000 kilometers… When their cultivation reached a certain level, they could even reverse time and space!

“Hiss! Good stuff!”

Lu Xiaoran could tell at a glance that this cultivation technique was extraordinary.

It was too heaven-defying.

He had to cultivate it.

If he did not cultivate it, he would have let down Wang Cai for giving him such a good gift bag.

Lu Xiaoran immediately went into seclusion and began to cultivate the Great Void Chaos Steps.

“Yin and Yang are divided in one breath. Yin and Yang become the Three Purities. The Three Purities are divided into the Four Symbols and the Four Symbols transform into the Five Elements…”

…

Cultivation often lasted for long periods of time. In the blink of an eye, a month passed.

A month later, Lu Xiaoran woke up.

His eyes turned white and black. The two colors emitted a strange glow that was filled with dignity and intimidation.

“I didn’t expect to spend so much time mastering the Great Void Chaos Steps this time . It spent even more time on this than I did on the Azure Thearch Longevity Art. Looks like even though the Azure Thearch Longevity Art is a top-grade Martial Monarch Realm cultivation, a movement technique like the Great Void Chaos Steps is still a little stronger.”

“However, for a peerless genius like me, it’s still not a big problem.”

If it were anyone else, even if they were a little genius, they would still have to spend several years mastering the perfected Great Void Chaos Steps. As for Lu Xiaoran, he only needed half a month. This speed was definitely heaven-defying.

For the other half of the month, he circulated the two Martial Monarch Realm cultivation techniques in his body with all his strength to increase his cultivation.

“For the past month, I’ve been cultivating the Great Void Chaos Steps and the Azure Thearch Longevity Art non-stop. With the help of the Spirit Marrow Pill, my cultivation should have already broken through to the fourth level of the Shattering Void Realm. At this rate, there’s hope for me to break through to the Essence Realm this year.”

As he spoke, Lu Xiaoran looked at his own cultivation again.

“…”

Sixth level of the Shattering Void Realm!

This rocket-like upgrade made Lu Xiaoran suddenly somewhat speechless.

This was the Shattering Void Realm, not the Body Refining Realm!

He had advanced by another two levels in the same month. This speed was a little too much!
