Chapter 729 - The Seventh Heaven!
ayed in three floors. Each dazzling treasure was similarly protected by its own array formation.The grading of treasures was not as intricate as that for cultivation methods, simply divided into upper...Chapter 729 - Seven Layers of Heaven!
"Seven layers of heaven" Hao Ren looked at them doubtfully.
"Yes, it's information from the Heavenly Mountain Sect. They said they tried to negotiate for Immortal Peak, but the sects in the seventh layer didn’t agree," Lu L琳琳 said.
For these past dozen days or so, Xie Yujia had no heart to manage the spiritual herbs of Immortal Peak, so the Lu sisters often came over to tend to the spirit fields.
Hao Ren knew that the information obtained by the Heavenly Mountain Sect should still be somewhat reliable. They were telling these things to Immortal Peak in order to get closer to it.
He looked carefully at the realms of Lu L琳琳 and Lu 莉莉, and found that they had already recovered to the middle grade Gān realm within a short period of time; it seemed that it wouldn’t be long before they reached the upper grade Gān realm.
"Then… let’s go take a look at the seventh layer of heaven," Hao Ren said.
Now his realm had already reached the Xūn realm, and he was in dire need of mysterious crystals. If he could successfully cultivate Seven-hearted Five-colored Lotus, then he would be able to refine the mysterious crystal and aim for reaching the Gān realm within three years. In this way, when he returned half of the dragon pill to Purple, it would be relatively safe.
"I... will also go," Xie Yujia said softly.
"Me too!" Zhao Yanzi volunteered.
"You two should stay in the valley and cultivate. The fewer people there are at the seventh layer of heaven, the better it is for us," Hao Ren said.
Xie Yujia thought about it and felt that he was right, so she didn’t say anything more; her realm was the lowest of them all, and if she went along, she would just be holding them back.
Zhao Yanzi wanted to go to the seventh layer of heaven out of curiosity, but when Hao Ren said what he did, she gave up on that idea. After eating the ginseng fruit, her stomach felt warm and it indeed helped with her breakthrough.
And if she reached the middle stage of forming an inner core, wouldn’t that be even better Maybe... the mark of the Purple-Qing Sword in front of her belly could shrink!
Now the green mark on the sword extended from her chest all the way to her belly; it could only be covered with clothes, and that was just ugly!
"L琳琳 and 莉莉, come up with me," Hao Ren said as he looked at his Lu family sisters.
“Sure!” The Lu sisters naturally had no doubts. Among everyone, they were the ones with the highest realm.
"And you!"
Hao Ren suddenly sent out a beam of white sword light.
The direction the sword light was heading towards, a black disk suddenly leaped up from the black rocks.
The rocks were shattered by the sword light, while the flying black disk turned out to be Jin Guang Shield—it had been lying still on a large black rock, thinking Hao Ren wouldn’t see it
When this guy flew out of the Nine Dragons Palace, Hao Ren knew that it would return to Xie Yujia or rest and cultivate spiritual energy in Misty Peak.
Jin Guang Shield spun around twice before slowly lying down on another rock.
Hao Ren saw its lackadaisical behavior and knew calling it wouldn’t help. He gave a light snort and patted Xiaobai’s butt.
Xiaobai transformed into a snow lion, carrying Hao Ren as the Lu sisters each stepped onto their rings, following Hao Ren out of Misty Peak.
"The ancestor is back! The ancestor is back!"
The disciples from the three small sects around Misty Peak were thrilled when they saw a pure white snow lion emerge, with two barefoot female cultivators resembling fairies following alongside it.
For these past few weeks, Hao Ren hadn’t appeared near Misty Peak on the back of the snow lion, which left all three sects uneasy—did this mean their ancestor had left What would happen to them then
Hao Ren’s sudden appearance made their disciples feel reassured. Their excited behavior was akin to finally seeing an emperor appear at a city gate—they almost started shouting "Long live the emperor!"
During this period, all three sects had rapidly developed; not only had their buildings spread halfway up the mountain waist, but the number of new disciples had also multiplied.
New recruits who hadn’t met Medicine King Elder were awed by Hao Ren’s appearance on a snow lion as big as a small mountain—this was an Essence Formation Realm cultivator, truly impressive!
The newly arrived female disciples from Qingyin Sect, upon seeing Hao Ren's youthful looks, felt their hearts flutter with admiration. However, they were soon reminded by their senior sisters: even the beautiful Wu Yan couldn’t catch Elder Medicine King’s attention; you better not waste your thoughts on him!
Every cultivator was intimidated by the aura Hao Ren unconsciously emanated. Even the extremely pretty Lu L琳琳 and Lu 莉莉 weren’t the focus of their conversations.
Eyes following Hao Ren and the Lu sisters as they flew towards the Sixth Heavens, these disciples couldn’t calm down for a long time. Though they could only take a brief glimpse from afar, it was still an incredible sense of pride!
In the Fifth Heavens, having one Essence Formation Realm cultivator was already considered very powerful, while the Medicine King Elder who provided their protection was a bigwig even major sects in the Sixth Heavens couldn’t offend!
Qingyin Sect, Qixing Sect, and Qionghua Sect had more Foundation Establishment Pills than other sects by several times over. They also produced countless types of Tier 3 medicinal pills! With such good fortune, they should work even harder on cultivation!
Gazing far into the clouds of the Sixth Level Sky where the white snow lion disappeared, these cultivators felt a surge of reverence in their hearts.
Hao Ren had no idea that stepping out from the Mysterious Peak would cause such a stir among the three sects and greatly excite the younger disciples.
He flew from the Mysterious Peak to the Sixth Level Sky to inquire about more detailed information regarding the Mount Tianshan Sect, not intending to show off. However, this made those cultivators feel the imposing manner of a master who does not look sideways!
With Little White’s power as a Fifth Stage snow lion, he effortlessly pierced through the barriers between the Fifth and Sixth Level Skies, allowing Hao Ren to directly head towards Mount Tianshan.
The Mount Tianshan Sect had gradually recovered its former glory after some time of recuperation. Although the Spirit Martial Ancestor, who represents the highest generation in the sect, has yet to reach the full completion stage of the Core Formation Realm, he can now resume cultivation and is temporarily safe from mortal danger. This greatly uplifted the morale of the disciples.
As long as this ancestor remains alive, even if he cannot advance to the full completion stage of the Core Formation Realm, his rich cultivation experience will significantly elevate Mount Tianshan’s overall strength just by guiding the younger generations!
The two cultivators guarding the sect entrance saw a white mass flying towards the direction of Mount Tianshan and instantly tensed up.
In the past, there was no need for special personnel to guard the entrance of Mount Tianshan. However, with the turbulent situation in the Sixth Level Sky more unstable than that of the Fifth Level Sky, it’s impossible to predict whether other sects might suddenly attack a weakened one.
Mount Tianshan has managed to recover thanks to several Core Formation Realm cultivators helping the Medicine King Ancestor build an array formation and by sending their leader's daughter into Mysterious Peak for cultivation in exchange for lifting the restrictions on the Spirit Martial Ancestor. Despite this, they still cannot afford to be careless.
The white mass approached at a speed surpassing that of the Core Formation Realm, nearly reaching the level of Nirvana.
Before these two cultivators could send an alert back to the sect headquarters, Hao Ren on Little White’s snow lion had already crossed the entrance and the newly established array formation. The Fifth Stage Little White breezed right through without even being noticed by any barrier.
It is easy to rebuild houses, but it's not simple to reconstruct an array formation. Mount Tianshan's current protective array formation is barely connected together, like a brittle eggshell compared to their previous one—it can't fend off Core Formation Realm cultivators but serves as a warning system.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three Core Formation Realm cultivators flew up from the scripture repository. Upon seeing that Hao Ren and two female attendants had entered Mount Tianshan, their expressions became respectful.
Their astonishment was evident when they realized Hao Ren's cultivation level was already in the mid-stage of the Core Formation Realm.
Originally, they thought Hao Ren was a disciple of the Medicine King Ancestor. Now, looking at this youthful cultivator, they suspected that he might be the Medicine King Ancestor himself!
It must have been due to some mishap during cultivation or practicing a secret technique that caused his temporary regression in realm, leading him to retreat to the Fifth Level Sky…
As these three Core Formation Realm cultivators welcomed Hao Ren with respect and looked at him sideways, various thoughts rolled through their minds.
"How many pieces of the Ten-Thousand Year Black Herb do I need I heard that this kind of spirit herb can be found in the Seventh Layer Sky" Hao Ren asked straight to the point.
The three core formation cultivators looked at each other, and one of them said, "Reporting back to Medicine King Ancestor, there is a piece of black medicinal field in the Mysterious Sound Sect in the Seventh Layer Sky. The Ten-Thousand Year Black Herb that the Ancestor needs might be available."
"Hmm," Hao Ren nodded his head. "Then who will lead me there"
When they heard Hao Ren's question, the three core formation cultivators looked at each other again.
Providing information about the Seventh Layer Sky was already very risky, but if they led Medicine King Ancestor to the Seventh Layer Sky for medicine, wouldn't that be...
It should be noted that there were spirit transformers residing in the Seventh Layer Sky!
"Why did Medicine King Ancestor come to Mount Heaven Sect" Spirit Martial Ancestor, wearing black Taoist robes, sat on a Snow Lion Trident and rose up from behind the mountain.
He sensed the sudden arrival of a core formation cultivator in Mount Heaven Sect and hurriedly came out to see what was happening; he didn't expect it would be this "honorable guest."
"I want to borrow some Ten-Thousand Year Black Herbs from the Seventh Layer Sky. Is there anyone among the disciples of Mount Heaven Sect who can lead me" Hao Ren asked him.
“This…” Spirit Martial Ancestor didn’t expect Hao Ren to make such a request and looked hesitant.
"If it’s inconvenient for you to go, just tell me roughly what I need to know," Hao Ren said straightforwardly without wanting to waste time.
"Old man has some acquaintance with the Mysterious Sound Sect. It might be better if old man accompanies Ancestor there." Spirit Martial Ancestor gritted his teeth and said.
The three core formation cultivators suddenly looked at Spirit Martial Ancestor in shock.
The regulations of the Seventh Layer Sky were stricter than those of the Sixth Layer Sky. No cultivator from the Sixth Layer Sky could enter the Seventh Layer Sky without permission, even if they were approaching completion of their core formation. Due to his high cultivation level, Spirit Martial Ancestor occasionally had opportunities to be called up by a sect in the Seventh Layer Sky for questioning but was only allowed to move within designated areas.
With Mount Heaven Sect being devastated and Spirit Martial Ancestor’s realm having dropped sharply, if he entered the Seventh Layer Sky now without any response from upper-tier sects of the Seventh Layer Sky, especially with other cultivators in tow...
The old-looking Spirit Martial Ancestor had his own thoughts. He originally thought that Medicine King Ancestor was a high-level cultivator in the Seventh Layer Sky who resided in the Fifth Layer due to certain reasons but now it seemed that he wasn’t familiar with the Seventh Layer Sky at all, which left only one possibility… This Medicine King Ancestor was actually a cultivator from the Eighth Layer Sky!
He hadn't imagined that Hao Ren, who could use the Five-Element Skills, was not an upper-layer cultivator but a land-based cultivator!
"Alright! Then let's go!" Without any hesitation, Hao Ren patted Little White’s head and headed for Mount Heaven Sect's gate.ion, Hao Ren didn't dare to move and sat steadily, waiting for another aperture to open up automatically inside the Inner Dan.Puh puh puh puh! How much he wished to hear this sound again!However, the...
