“Since you can withstand a Fourth Grade forces, in the future you will be able to condense a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage,” Yang Kai said.
Guo Ziyan said, “Miao’er now has a Second Order foundation, so even if she condenses a Fourth Grade forces, it will be useless. In the future, she will only be able to achieve Second Order Open Heaven Stage. Sir, there are many things waiting to be done in the Void Land, so there is no need to waste any more resources. I will take care of Miao’er’s cultivation in the future.”
“Who says it’s a waste?” Yang Kai laughed, “You’ve probably forgotten about Meng Hong.”
“Young Master Meng Hong?” Guo Ziyan was startled.
He naturally recognized Meng Hong. After all, they had spent more than ten years together in the Great Ruins Boundary, so he clearly remembered what had happened during that time.
“Sir means…”
Yang Kai said solemnly, “Senior Brother Meng originally condensed a Third Grade force, but after breaking it, he was able to cleanse his Dao Seal, and now he has condensed a Fifth Grade force! In the future, if he can achieve Open Heaven, he will be able to reach Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage directly! His starting point will be two grades higher than before.”
“This humble subordinate also knows about this, but Young Master Meng Hong only had this opportunity because he obtained some Taiyi Clean Soul Water. However, Extreme Taiyi Clean Soul Water is simply too rare, it’s simply impossible… Sir, what is this?” As he spoke, Guo Ziyan’s eyes suddenly widened as he stared at the small jade bottle in Yang Kai’s hand. As the jade bottle shook, the sound of water dripping could be heard.
“This is the Taiyi Clean Soul Water,” Yang Kai smiled.
Even though he already had a guess, when Yang Kai confirmed it with his own mouth, Guo Ziyan couldn’t help taking a deep breath, and even Yue He was stunned.
In the Unaging Land, Open Heaven Stage cultivators were unable to enter, so even if Yang Kai obtained some kind of treasure, they didn’t know what it was. Others might not be able to find it, but Yang Kai had many Taiyi Clean Soul Water.
This Taiyi Clean Soul Water was a treasure Yang Kai had obtained from the Unaging Land.
“With this Divine Water, it will be able to cleanse the power in Guo Miao’s Dao Seal. Fortunately, she has only condensed one type of power, so it won’t be difficult for her to cleanse it. I just don’t know if Guo Miao has the courage to persist.”
Guo Miao said excitedly, “According to Sir’s words, this Taiyi Clean Soul Water can give this disciple a chance to start over?”
She had never heard of the Taiyi Clean Soul Water before. After all, she had been cultivating in Blood Goose Continent and had little contact with the outside world, so she was somewhat ignorant, but this didn’t stop her from deducing its effects from Yang Kai and Guo Ziyan’s conversation.
“That’s right!” Yang Kai nodded, “Although I haven’t used this Taiyi Clean Soul Water before, I have a friend who has used it before. Although this item will allow you to have a chance to start over, the risk is not small. After all, this matter concerns your Dao Seal, if you are not careful, your foundation will collapse and your future will be ruined. Moreover, during the process of cleansing your Dao Seal, I’m afraid you will have to endure great pain.”
Guo Miao cautiously asked, “May I ask Sir, how did your friend end up?”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “Although it was difficult, at least he succeeded.”
A look of determination flashed across Guo Miao’s eyes, “Since that’s the case, please bestow this Taiyi Clean Soul Water upon me, this disciple is willing to try.”
“Have you thought it through?” Yang Kai asked solemnly.
Guo Miao said, “Disciple has thought it through carefully. Disciple originally had a Fourth Grade aptitude, but now that I’ve been forced to condense a Second Grade force, even if I were to safely advance to the Second Order Open Heaven in the future, I’m afraid I won’t be able to accept it. Rather than being unwilling in the future, it would be better for Disciple to go all out today. Even if I fail, Disciple will have no regrets!”
Standing to the side, Guo Ziyan wanted to say something but hesitated, as if he wanted to stop Guo Miao, but every time he wanted to say something, he would swallow it down. At this moment, he couldn’t help letting out a long sigh and giving up on the idea of stopping Guo Miao.
Yang Kai handed the portion of Taiyi Clean Soul Water to Guo Miao and smiled, “Since you have the heart to improve, this King will grant you your wish. However, you don’t need to worry too much. When my friend consumed this thing that day, he passed it with his powerful will, but today is different. With Yue He protecting you, I’m sure it will be much easier.”
“Yes!” Guo Miao took the jade bottle and held it tightly in her hand, as if what she was holding was not a portion of Taiyi Clean Soul Water but her future.
Turning to look at her father, Guo Ziyan gave her an encouraging look.
Without any hesitation, Guo Miao immediately went into seclusion to consume the Taiyi Clean Soul Water. Yang Kai naturally agreed and instructed Yue He to take good care of her.
There were many private rooms in the Lotus Fall, so the two of them found a private room and entered it, opening the barrier and isolating themselves from the outside world.
Guo Ziyan stood outside the door like an iron tower, pacing back and forth, his face filled with worry and anxiety.
Days passed as the Lotus Fall fell through one great region after another. Twenty days later, they finally arrived at the Great Domain where The First Inn is located.
When Yang Kai first came here, he didn’t know much about this Great Domain, but now he learned from the Universe Chart that this Great Domain was called Thousand Birds Territory and had a second class force called Thousand Birds Sect.
However, the Star City here was not under the jurisdiction of Thousand Birds Sect. Although Thousand Birds Sect was a Second Class force with a deep heritage, it was still one of Great Battle Heaven’s subordinate forces, and the true owner of this Star City was one of the 36 Cave Heaven, which is the Great Battle Heaven.
In these 3000 Worlds, First Class, Second Class, and Third Class forces were as numerous as the hairs on an ox, and many of them were subordinate forces.
For example, in the Void Territory, the Void Land ruled over a Great Domain, and the other third class forces that lived in the Void Territory belonged to the Void Land and were its subordinate forces.
When the Void Land was being constructed, the third class forces had also sent many people to help.
The Void Land was like this, as were most of the other second class forces. For example, the relationship between Startled Goose Pavilion and Blood Goose Continent was similar.
If a Second Class Force could control a Great Domain, what about the Cave Heaven Paradise?
Every Cave Heaven Paradise controlled more than one Great Domain, as many as a dozen, or as few as seven or eight. Everything in these Great Domain was the foundation of these Cave Heaven Paradise.
Thousand Birds Territory was one of the Great Domain controlled by Great Battle Heaven, and Thousand Birds Sect was also one of the Great Battle Heaven's subordinate forces. If Great Battle Heaven called, Thousand Birds Sect would be unable to resist, unless they didn’t want to continue living in this Thousand Birds Territory. To any Cave Heaven Paradise, supporting a Second Class Force to rise and replacing others was simply a simple matter.
Yang Kai secretly rejoiced that the Void Territory was not under the jurisdiction of any Cave Heaven Paradise, otherwise, the Void Territory would probably have to bow down to some Cave Heaven Paradise and act according to their wishes.
On the second day after arriving at Thousand Birds Territory, the door to the secret room, which had been closed all this time, suddenly opened. Seeing this, Guo Ziyan, who had been standing guard outside, quickly asked nervously, “How was it?”
Yue He smiled lightly and said, “Go in and see for yourself.” Saying so, she lean to the side. He rushed into the secret room like a wind. A moment later, Yang Kai heard this guy’s carefree laughter.
“Good work,” Yang Kai nodded lightly to Yue He.
Yue He shook her head and said, “From beginning to end, I didn’t do anything. She passed all the trials by herself. Guo Miao is a good seedling.”
Compared to the time when Meng Hong had taken the Taiyi Clean Soul Water, Guo Miao had a great advantage. Firstly, she had condensed a Second Grade Force, one grade lower than the Third Grade which Meng Hong had condensed, and the effects of the Taiyi Clean Soul Water were greater and faster. Secondly, she had only condensed the Second Grade Force for a short time, making it easier to cleanse. Thirdly, she had only condensed one Second Grade Force, while Meng Hong had condensed several forces.
If Meng Hong could persist, there was no reason for Guo Miao to fail.
Guo Miao’s current condition was quite good. As long as she rested for a while, she would be able to establish a foundation for her Open Heaven Stage.
Soon, Guo Miao came out under the leadership of Guo Ziyan and thanked Yang Kai profusely. Yang Kai immediately took out a few Fourth Grade cultivation resources and gave them to Guo Miao, causing her to feel extremely grateful.
Two days later, they finally arrived at the Star City’s harbor.
Yang Kai received the Lotus Fall and paid a fee before leading Yue He and the others into the Star City.
Looking at the familiar streets and the shops that hadn’t changed much, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit emotional. The last time he had come to the Star City with the Proprietress, he had owed her a large sum of money, but in the end, he had to collect debts on her behalf. At that time, he had been a wanderer with no one to rely on, but now, after more than a decade, he had become the master of the Void Land. Not only did he have Open Heaven Stage master like Yue He and Guo Ziyan, but he also had a future elite like Lang Qingshan and Cunning Face.
After more than a decade, the changes were huge.
If the Star City in the Void Territory was a medium sized Star City, then the Star City in the Thousand Birds Territory was a large sized Star City. The people who came and went were packed with all kinds of goods.
Compared to this place, the Star City of the Void Territory seemed somewhat shabby.
Yang Kai wasn’t unfamiliar with this place. After all, when he was collecting debts, he had visited almost the entire Star City. After more than ten years, the Star City hadn’t changed much, so he naturally wouldn’t get lost. He immediately led a group of people towards the First Inn.
This was the first time Guo Miao had come to a place like Star City, so she was filled with curiosity about this prosperous place. Everything she saw was fresh, so after a short walk, she bought a lot of random things.
Guo Ziyan followed her with a smile. No matter what his daughter liked, he only cared about buying it, his love for her overflowing, as if he wanted to make up for all the guilt he had felt over the years.
After walking two streets, Yue He, who was standing next to Yang Kai, suddenly frowned. With a wave of her hand, a gentle force swept out, her beautiful eyes coldly glancing to the side, her expression vigilant.
Before Yang Kai could react to what was happening, he turned around and saw a burly man staring at Yue He in shock.
This person had a fiendish appearance and was obviously not a good person. Coupled with his expression, he looked extremely comical.
At this moment, his hand was raised in the air, seemingly wanting to pat Yang Kai’s shoulder, but Yue He’s reaction was so fast that she directly stopped him.
During this brief exchange, this person had also noticed how tyrannical Yue He was and couldn’t help being shocked.
Yang Kai looked at this bear-like man and couldn’t help laughing, “Shopkeeper Pei?”
This was the Hundred Refining Hall's Pei Buwan!
