Chapter 149 Stopped at the Golden Core Stage
Chapter 149 Stopped at the Golden Core Stage
Qi Yan: "..."
He remembered that his peers were quite intelligent, so why are their descendants getting dumber and dumber?
Could it be that our ancestors used up all our intelligence?
"Well, those three demon kings had their own ulterior motives, it's normal that you couldn't suppress them."
Then, he asked Qi Lin why the demon race sent people to the cultivation world, and Qi Lin told him everything.
After speaking, Qi Lin paused, then said nervously, "Ancestor, they want to strike first before you recover your strength. Should you find a safe place to hide?"
Before Qi Yan could speak, Qi Er said, "What are you hiding for? When Master returns, he will naturally give the demon realm a good makeover and teach those who have ulterior motives a lesson, Master, right?"
Qi Yan glanced at him. "You've already made the decision for me, so why are you asking me?"
Qi Er chuckled, "I'm just familiar with your temperament, Master. Of course, I'll follow your instructions."
Qi Yan glanced at Yun Zhao and said, "Zhao Zhao, we may have to stay in the demon realm for a while."
Yun Zhaoming understood, "We need to completely eliminate those people?"
Qi Yan nodded. "Yes, I need to go back to Qingyun Sect with you and settle things in the demon realm before I can feel at ease."
"Then let's just stay here. Anyway, we can cultivate wherever we go, so it doesn't matter where we are."
Qi Yan smiled and stroked her hair. "We live in the Demon Palace. There is a secret chamber made of top-grade spirit stones in the Demon Palace. Cultivating there will be twice as effective with half the effort."
Yun Zhao exclaimed, "Wow!" and said, "Then you can focus on dealing with the demon race, and I'll go there to cultivate."
When Qi Yan said he was going back to Qingyun Sect, Qi Lin and the other two were already a little worried. Their master (ancestor) had finally returned, and now he was leaving so soon?
Qi Lin said weakly, "Ancestor, wouldn't it be better if you stayed in the Demon Realm? I was forced into this position. If you return, the throne of the Demon Emperor will be returned to you."
Qi Yi also said, "Master, you should stay in the Demon Realm. After we've settled things with the four major families and the Demon King, we still need to arrange your wedding with your wife."
Qi Yan was somewhat tempted by his words, but when he thought of what the Spirit of Extinction had said—that Yun Zhao's grandfather might still be alive—he gave up.
He thought that Zhao Zhao probably wanted her family to be there for this important moment in her life.
"Of course," Qi Er said cheekily, "If you take us with you, it doesn't matter where we go."
Qi Yan raised an eyebrow. "Not a bad idea."
Qi Lin: “…”
No, are you sick?
Does it look like you have a mouth?
If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!
Qi Lin wanted to protest, but unfortunately, the protest was ineffective.
Qi Yan wanted to take Yun Zhao to that secret room, but Qi Lin's servant arrived and informed Qi Lin that the patriarchs of the four major families had come and wanted to see him.
Qi Lin asked Qi Yan, "Ancestor, what should I do?"
Qi Yan thought for a moment, "You go see them first, I'll take Zhao Zhao there and then come find you."
Qi Lin agreed, tugged at the bewildered servant, and walked outside.
The attendant asked blankly, "Your Majesty, who are they...?"
Qi Lin slapped him on the head, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask, talk less and do more."
The secret chamber in the Demon Palace, crafted from top-grade spirit stones, was unknown to all the Demon Emperors of the past. Qi Yan led Yun Zhao through a winding path into it, and as soon as they entered, Yun Zhao sensed the rich spiritual energy.
Yun Zhao took a deep breath, "I refuse to believe that I can't break through in a place like this!"
Qi Yan patted her head and said, "Focus on your cultivation. I'll come pick you up once everything is settled."
Yun Zhao nodded emphatically, "Yes, I understand. Ayan, go find our little grandson. I think he's almost broken."
Thinking of Qi Lin's reluctance when he left, she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
Qi Yan said helplessly, "Naughty."
Before starting his cultivation, Yun Zhao had Wu You release Song Qinghua, and Qi Yan had Qi Yi lock him up in a safe place.
Of course, he was still unconscious. As soon as he showed any signs of waking up, Yun Zhao had Wu You feed him a sleeping pill.
Before Qi Yan left, Yin Xue said it also wanted to stay and cultivate, so Qi Yan handed the spirit sword to Yun Zhao.
Bloodthirsty rolled around excitedly in Yun Zhao's arms. Its master was finally going to give it to the mistress! It would be by the mistress's side from now on!
Qi Yan glanced at it. "Temporary."
Blood Drinker: "..."
No hehe!
Time stands still in the mountains, and the same is true in the dark room. Yun Zhao frantically absorbed the spiritual energy around her. With her eyes closed, she did not see the huge vortex of spiritual energy that appeared around her.
However, the spiritual energy did not enter Yun Zhao's body. Instead, it floated outside. Fu Guang and Yin Xue occasionally took a bite of the spiritual energy that was about to solidify, and idly guarded Yun Zhao.
One bite is enough for them to cultivate for a very long time; they don't need to absorb spiritual energy themselves, they only need to refine it.
So when Yun Zhao finished cultivating and opened her eyes, she was disappointed to find that her cultivation level had not increased, and even her spiritual power had not increased in the slightest.
"How is this going?"
Yun Zhao muttered to herself. She wanted to ask Zixu and Wuyou, but they were also engrossed in their cultivation.
Wu You originally intended to protect Yun Zhao, but as soon as Yun Zhao started cultivating, he discovered that spiritual energy was being absorbed by him uncontrollably, so he had no choice but to cultivate as well.
Fu Guang reached out a claw and scratched Yun Zhao, trying to convey the scene to Yun Zhao through divine communication and body language.
Through a combination of guesswork and deduction, Yun Zhao roughly understood.
"So," Yun Zhao said, his words carrying a heavy weight, "the spiritual energy I absorb during my cultivation doesn't belong to me, but it can benefit you?"
Fu Guang meowed in agreement.
Yes, that's what "meow" means.
Yun Zhao: "..."
Well, to put it simply, I'm quite frustrated.
However, seeing the increase in cultivation levels of Fu Guang and Yin Xue, she felt relieved.
Anyway, it won't benefit outsiders. Since she can't absorb the spiritual energy, so be it... Forget it? She'll find out the reason sooner or later!
If she stops at the Golden Core stage, wouldn't staying here make her no different from a cripple?
No, no, she has to find out why!
By the way, her cultivation level in her previous life was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Could it be the same as now?
Deep within its consciousness, sensing Yun Zhao's desire to stay, the system almost burst into tears.
It was so difficult; it worked itself to the bone, and finally, it's going to keep Yun Zhao here!
As for Yun Zhao's stagnant cultivation...
It's not important; once we get there, everything will fall into place.
Before it could even celebrate, someone suddenly spoke up, "Don't be too happy yet. What if that person appears and erases your sister's memory again? All our efforts will be in vain."
The system's heart sank instantly after being splashed with cold water.
"Then, then, what's wrong? Should we do something?"
The system is in tears.
The Spirit of Extinction slowly spoke, "Do you know where that person is now? What is their identity? Have they had any contact with your sister?"
The system was baffled by the three consecutive questions.
"No, Phuket Island..."
