Chapter 28: Ye Cangxue, Not of This World:
[You have comprehended the Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings ]
In front of Lin Ang, a system prompt appeared, and a surge of insights flooded his mind.
At this moment, the ancient and majestic stone monument before him emitted dazzling light.
Lin Ang had completely comprehended the most ancient and venerable technique of the Azure Cloud Sect, the 'Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings.'
From the insights in his mind, the Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings seemed to contain the power of the five elements and could be applied to various attack methods.
For instance, by invoking the power of fire, it could be integrated into sword techniques, creating new means of attack. When a sword strike is made, it could transform into a blaze of flames, capable of annihilating stars.
"As expected of the lifelong enlightenment of an immortal. Currently, I have merely grasped this technique and not yet mastered it completely. As I cultivate deeper, its power will undoubtedly become greater."
An immortal was a being who transcended time, enjoyed millions of years of life.
Such an existence had comprehended reincarnation and could annihilate entire realms with a mere gesture, transcending the present world.
If this immortal hadn't mysteriously perished, their numerous legacies lost in the river of time, the Azure Cloud Sect might now hold the status of a Holy Land.
Even so, the techniques left behind by an immortal were sufficient to serve as the Azure Cloud Sect's treasured inheritance, ensuring the sect's survival for generations.
Lin Ang sat quietly before the stone monument, with stars passing by his side. He reached out his hand and touched the ancient stele.
Buzz!!
Immediately, an immense spiritual Qi flowed through Lin Ang's arm and into his body.
At this moment, a vast and magnificent vision of the Azure Cloud Sect's surrounding mountains and rivers appeared in his mind.
"I have comprehended the Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings and now bear the fortune of this land. This land will, in turn, provide feedback to me..."
With the flow of this immense spiritual Qi, Lin Ang's aura surged rapidly.
First, he made a breakthrough into the 10th stage Spirit Condensing Realm, then smoothly advanced to the Crimson Profound Realm in one go.
In less than a moment, Lin Ang had made a breakthrough into the Crimson Profound Realm.
To understand the magnitude of this breakthrough, consider that advancing to a new major realm requires ten times the spiritual Qi needed for a minor breakthrough.
In this brief period, Lin Ang received spiritual insight equivalent to advancing from the 1st to the 10th stage Core Formation Realm. This shows the immense gift the stone monument provided.
With Lin Ang successfully making breakthrough into the Crimson Profound realm, the stone monument dimmed once more, waiting for decades, centuries, or even millennia until another could come and comprehend the Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings.
"Farewell, Chief Disciple Lin Ang."
As Lin Ang exited the hall of inheritance, the four mysterious elders in black robes bowed in unison, a drastic change in their attitude from before.
...
(In the Supreme Hall)
The thoughts of several supreme elders echoed with astonishment.
"Indeed... He successfully obtained the 'Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings' and comprehended it in less than an afternoon..."
"He not only comprehended our sect's treasured technique but also made a breakthrough an entire realm?"
"What kind of monster is Lin Ang...?"
"Even the geniuses of the Holy Lands may not possess such talent..."
Even the usually composed Supreme Elder Ying Xuanzi was unsettled.
He now understood why the ancestor refused to personally instruct Lin Ang. With Lin Ang's displayed talent, their teachings might have hindered his growth.
"This young man comes from the Lin family of the Yan Empire, the sixth son who lost his mother at a young age. Though his background isn't impressive, after entering the outer sect, his talent shone through. By twelve, he reached the 4th stage Qi Refining Realm. Later, to save his childhood friend Ye Cangxue, he lost his bloodline's power."
"Unexpectedly... these five years didn't make him fade into obscurity. Instead, his true talent awakened..."
At this moment, Ying Xuanzi's voice became stern: "Spread the word. Today's anomaly in the sect was caused by my breakthrough during seclusion. No one in the Azure Cloud Sect is to discuss this matter! Lin Ang's practice of the Azure Clouds Path of All Living Beings must remain our greatest secret. Also, assign a 5th-level or higher elder from the sect's dark division to secretly protect Lin Ang. Do not interfere unless absolutely necessary."
In the Supreme Hall, the other supreme elders' solemn thoughts responded, "As you command." Then, their thoughts dispersed.
...
Meanwhile, millions of miles away, in a supreme holy land within the Kunxu Empire, a brightly lit, opulent hall stood.
Inside, a woman in a golden robe was being attended to by her maids as they combed her hair.
Her peerlessly beautiful face was reflected in the mirror, her eyes like stars. Her long, silky hair flowed like a waterfall, enhancing her ethereal presence. Her skin was like flawless jade, and she wore a golden robe adorned with dragon patterns, exuding nobility and grace akin to a divine goddess descending to the mortal realm.
This woman was Ye Cangxue, the former Holy Maiden of the Azure Cloud Sect, now a highly sought-after Holy Maiden lady of the Great Holy Land, renowned for her unparalleled talent and beauty. She was also once Lin Ang's fiancée. Her name mirrored her cold temperament, as if she was the lone, proud figure amidst the snow.
Behind her, her maid Yun'er gently said, "Your Highness, the ascension ceremony to become an official Holy Maiden lady will be held in three months. At that time, representatives from thousands of nations and tribes under our Great Holy Land will come to honor your celestial grace."
Ye Cangxue nodded slightly, leaning back in her golden chair, her hair cascading down like a waterfall. Her beautiful eyes gazed at the starry sky outside the window, cold and distant like frozen for millennia.
She was like something out of a fairy tale.
-To be continued!
