Asura Mad Emperor

Activating the Earth Pulse Vital Energy beneath Spirit Peak for cultivation was undeniably of significant importance for the resource-depleted Congyun Sect.

If they could stimulate the eruption of Earth Pulse Vital Energy beneath all the Spirit Peaks of the Congyun Sect and enrich them, they would be able to greatly accelerate the cultivation speed of the sect disciples and save a large amount of cultivation resources.

It was a win-win scenario.

Therefore, knowing that Qinchuan could actually activate the Earth Pulse Vital Energy beneath Spirit Peak for cultivation, Wu Tian and the other high-ranking elders present all changed expressions immediately, their eyes turning fervent.

Elder Yan and Elder Zheng recounted in detail everything that had happened on Heaven-Piercing Peak earlier. Upon hearing that Qinchuan claimed he could transform Zhou Xi's Taiyin True Meridian into a Taiyin Treasure Body, Wu Tian and the other elders present couldn't help but gasp in shock.

However, everyone quickly regained their composure.

Wu Tian furrowed his brows, harboring great doubt about Qinchuan's words.

"The Taiyin Treasure Body is one of the ten great Treasured Bodies, and it's said that if one's Constitution is cultivated to the extreme, it can rival the Supreme Body, even some Divine Bodies!"

"Qinchuan is merely a youth, what ability does he have to elevate the Taiyin True Meridian to a Taiyin Treasure Body?"

Wu Tian said in a deep voice.

Hearing Wu Tian's words, the crowd also showed their doubt.

"Sect Master, this matter is indeed unbelievable, but that Qinchuan is quite confident. Moreover, he seems to genuinely understand the Taiyin True Meridian—as he previously pointed out the symptoms that Sister Apprentice Zhou Xi was exhibiting with striking accuracy," Elder Zheng said thoughtfully.

Wu Tian's gaze flickered as he spoke, "If this boy truly has such abilities, then making him the Saint Heir of our Congyun Sect would not be an issue. However, there is something peculiar and mysterious about him."

"He is just a scion from a remote small city like Great Wilderness City, with such young age, how could he know the secrets of the Taiyin True Meridian and the Taiyin Treasure Body?"

"Not only that, but there are also the various peculiar phenomena he caused before entering the mountain, as well as the respectful treatment from the Great Elder. It's all quite strange indeed."

The elders nodded in agreement, finding this reasoning persuasive.

"No matter how mysterious this person is, as long as he does no harm to the Sect, let it be. But if he dares to do something detrimental to the Sect, I will not spare him!"

Wu Tian said with a stern voice, "As for whether this boy truly has the means to resolve the hidden dangers of the Taiyin True Meridian and even transform it into a Taiyin Treasure Body, we will know by tomorrow."

...

Night fell, and the moonlight was hazy.

Qinchuan stood at the peak of Heaven-Piercing Peak, holding a wine cup, gazing at the clear moon in the distant sky, drinking alone in contemplation.

The cool night breeze was gentle, tousling his hair and robes.

Below Heaven-Piercing Peak,

The Earth Dragon, being careful, turned itself over, using the deep abyss and cliff to climb up, and coiled quietly next to Qinchuan, its lively eyes occasionally stealing glances at him.

"It's been a million years, Little One, do you think the nights in that grave are cold?" Qinchuan asked, staring at the cold moon in the sky, filled with endless reminiscence, and addressed the Earth Dragon beside him.

Hearing Qinchuan's words, the Earth Dragon blinked its spirited eyes, affectionately rubbing its head against the back of Qinchuan's hand, and let out a low whine as if to comfort him.

"In this life, I will enter that place again."

Qinchuan tilted his head back and drank the wine in his cup in one go, his eyes at that moment appearing incredibly deep and sharp: "All that stand in my way shall be destroyed!!"

"Crack!"

As he spoke, the wine cup in Qinchuan's hand instantly shattered.

A terrifying murderous aura flashed by in an instant.

For tens of thousands of miles around, countless beings all felt a momentary chill throughout their bodies for no apparent reason.

But before they could react, that bone-piercing coldness vanished, leaving many startled and confused, wondering if it had been an illusion.

Sensing the fleeting intent to kill from Qinchuan, the Earth Dragon, Little One, seemed to share the same enemy with Qinchuan, also displaying a hint of ferocity in its eyes.

It let out a low whine, indicating its willingness to follow Qinchuan forever.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Qinchuan's face. He affectionately stroked Little One's head and said with a laugh, "That place is not where you can enter, even if you transform into a true Divine Dragon, you still would not be able to enter."

"Hoo..."

Little One let out a dissatisfied low whine.

Qinchuan shook his head and said with a smile, "If you can cultivate to the realm of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon, perhaps you might be able to enter."

Instantly, Little One's eyes widened, showing an expression of dejection.

The Primordial Ancestral Dragon, this is a mythical existence.

And now, it is merely an Earth Dragon, not even a true dragon yet.

Above the true dragon, there are the Ying Dragon, the Ancient Odd Dragon, the Ancient Divine Dragon, and only then comes the Primordial Ancestral Dragon.

...

Qinchuan wasn't in a hurry to awaken his Innate Pupils.

Awakening the Innate Pupils was vitally important to Qinchuan and could not afford any mistakes.

With nine lifetimes of reincarnation to cultivate the Innate Body and tread the Flawless Foundation Immortal Path, he now had to awaken each of the nine parts of the Innate Body one by one, and he had to be careful at every step.

Especially the first step, which involved awakening the Innate Pupils, could not tolerate any carelessness and required the best state to proceed.

That's why Qinchuan didn't immediately set about awakening his Innate Pupils with the Heavenly Treasures Materials left from his past life for this very purpose.

He was adjusting his state, to be in the best condition to complete the first step of awakening.

...

Early in the morning.

Gu Chuan had brought Zhou Xi to Heaven-Piercing Peak early to claim pills.

Not only Gu Chuan and Zhou Xi came, but all high-ranking members of the Congyun Sect did as well, including Congyun Sect's Sect Leader Wu Tian.

Learning that Qinchuan could actually induce the eruption of both Earth Pulse Vital Energy beneath Spirit Peak and the essence of Spiritual Energy from heaven and earth for cultivation, and that he claimed he could resolve the hidden dangers of Zhou Xi's Taiyin True Meridian and even assist in refining her Taiyin Treasure Body,

Wu Tian and the high-level members of the Congyun Sect became restless and also arrived at Heaven-Piercing Peak early in the morning, wanting to see how Qinchuan would resolve the dangers of the Taiyin True Meridian and even help Zhou Xi refine her Taiyin Treasure Body.

"Disciple pays respects to the Sect Leader and all the Elders."

Atop Heaven-Piercing Peak, the disciples on duty were startled to see the Sect Leader and several high-ranking elders descend upon the place, immediately kneeling to pay their respects.

"Where is Qinchuan, and why isn't he here to greet us?"

Wu Tian spoke with a calm expression that naturally commanded authority.

"It seems Brother Qin is unaware of the Sect Leader and the Elders' arrival; I will go in and report."

A disciple on duty at Heaven-Piercing Peak hastily said, appearing somewhat nervous and flustered in front of Wu Tian and the many high-ranking elders.

The disciple quickly entered the grand hall of Heaven-Piercing Peak.

At that moment, Qinchuan was having breakfast with Qin Xiaoyu.

Noticing the hurried disciple, Qinchuan asked indifferently, "What's the matter?"

"Brother Qin, the Sect Leader and all the Elders have arrived at Heaven-Piercing Peak."

The disciple hurriedly reported.

"They have arrived, so why the panic?"

Qinchuan said after hearing the news.

"...Brother Qin, the Sect Leader and the Elders are waiting outside, aren't you going to greet them?"

Seeing Qinchuan still composed and leisurely enjoying his breakfast with no immediate intention to greet them, the disciple couldn't help but remind him.

"Let them wait in the side hall for now. Whatever it is, we can talk after breakfast."

Qinchuan continued to sip his porridge slowly.

He disliked being disturbed when doing anything, especially when eating.

"..."

Hearing Qinchuan's words, the disciple was embarrassed, thinking that Qinchuan hadn't heard him clearly, and cautiously reminded him, "Brother Qin, the Sect Leader is here, along with the Great Elders..."

"Didn't I make myself clear just now?"
Your journey continues at empire

Qinchuan frowned, "Dismiss yourself!"

The disciple's mouth fell open, but then he quickly acknowledged with a bow and retreated.

"From now on, when I'm eating, no one is to disturb me."

Qinchuan spoke calmly.

The two attendants in the main hall quickly nodded their heads and answered, "Yes."
