Three days later, Xing Hun and Great Si Ming returned to the Yin-Yang School while Ji Yun stayed behind to receive guidance from Duke Huang Shi. As for Ji Yun's mission, Eastern Emperor Taiyi wanted Chu Nan Gong to return to the Yin-Yang School, but Chu Nan Gong said that he already knew about it and had already returned. Ji Yun was speechless. He did not ask about Nan Gong and Donghuang Taiyi's relationship. Some things were better left unsaid.
Three months later, Ji Yun bid farewell to Chu Nan Gong and returned to the Yin-Yang School alone.
Two months later, it was already late autumn.
Guanzhong, Mount Li, Yinyang School Headquarters.
Ji Yun, who was dressed in white, slowly walked on the Yinyang School's mysterious pattern and runic patterns. The Yinyang School's mountain ghosts, servants, and disciples who occasionally appeared stopped and bowed respectfully, but their eyes were filled with shock as they looked at their young master. No, they weren't looking at Young Master Ji Yun. They were staring at the shocking figure behind Ji Yun.
A huge white wolf that was as tall as an adult man and a half was slowly following behind Ji Yun. The white wolf's fur was as white as snow, without a trace of color. Only the wolf's head had a purple mark on its forehead, making it look a little strange and mysterious.
These disciples were all amazed by the snow wolf's figure, but no one noticed that it was following behind Ji Yun. The frequency of each step it took was exactly the same as Ji Yun's, and even the distance between each step was the same. No one noticed the disdain and contempt in the snow wolf's eyes when it swept its gaze across the disciples.
This snow wolf was Little White, who had grown up with Ji Yun on the snowland. In four years, not only had it grown bigger, but it also seemed to have undergone some inexplicable changes.
After Ji Yun walked past, these people started whispering to each other in twos and threes. The topic of conversation was naturally the Young Master and the snow wolf. Although these discussions were soft, Ji Yun could still hear them clearly with his cultivation. However, he naturally did not care about them.
He stopped in front of the Star Hall. The door was already open. It seemed that the person inside already knew about Ji Yun's return. Ji Yun turned around and patted Little White's neck, signaling it to wait for him at the door. Little White lowered its head and rubbed Ji Yun's hand intimately. Then, it lay on the ground and crossed its front legs to rest its head on Ji Yun's hand. Ji Yun smiled and walked into the door under Whitey's gaze. Only when the door slowly closed and Ji Yun's figure disappeared did Whitey close its eyes and doze off like a human.
Stepping into the dark and starry Star Hall once again, Ji Yun's heart was no longer as depressed and uneasy as before. He was calm and indifferent. Stopping in front of the stairs, Ji Yun raised his head and looked at the black robe under the golden light belt with a profound gaze.
After a long while, Ji Yun bowed slightly." Greetings, Your Excellency Donghuang."”
"Not bad, he's already half a step into the Xiantian realm. He's only one step away from breaking through.”Donghuang Taiyi's ethereal voice rang out, revealing Ji Yun's realm.
The so-called Xiantian realm meant that the martial artist's meridians were all mastered, and his zhenqi had reached a state of endless circulation. He could feel the power of heaven and earth. In the later stages, he could even borrow the power of heaven and earth to maintain his true qi at all times and strengthen the power of his mental cultivation techniques and moves. In this world, martial arts cultivation was divided into four levels, and the Xiantian realm was the second level.
The first level was known as the Houtian realm. It was the shallowest level in martial arts, which was the ordinary realm of ordinary martial artists. Due to the large number of sects and mixed talents, the number of martial artists in this realm was extremely large, and their strength was uneven. Therefore, this realm was also divided into five small levels.
Martial arts cultivation required talent and perseverance. Only those who could endure bitter cultivation could achieve success. Those martial artists who knew martial arts but were not strong enough to enter the ranks were collectively referred to as unranked martial artists, followed by third-rate martial artists, second-rate martial artists, first-rate martial artists, and super-first-rate martial artists.
For example, Xiang Shaoyu, who was in the initial stage, was only a third-rate martial artist. The Big Iron Hammer, Snow Maiden, and Thief Plantar of the Mo Family were considered second-rate martial artists because of their unique abilities. As for Gao Jianli of the Mo Family, he was a First Rated Warrior because he wielded the famous sword, Cold Water, which was ranked seventh. The Great Si Ming of the Yin-Yang School belonged to the category of super martial artists.
There were countless Pre-Sky Realm martial artists, and even first-class and super first-class martial artists were not in the minority. However, there were still very few who could advance to the Connate Realm. This was because only when a Houtian realm martial artist reached the Houtian limit in the four aspects of spiritual cultivation, spiritual cultivation, physical cultivation, and internal strength growth, and then broke through this limit, would they advance to the Xiantian realm.
It wasn't difficult to increase one's physical strength and internal strength. As time passed, many people would be able to achieve this with their own hard work. However, the cultivation of the mind and spirit was a difficult problem for many martial artists because they could not rely on hard work and time to break through. For example, Ji Yun's physical strength, internal strength, and spirit had already reached the limits of the Postnatal Realm when he left the Yin-Yang School last year. However, he had never been able to break through because of his lack of spirit.
Therefore, there weren't many Connate experts in the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. The main force was still the first-rate experts and super-first-rate experts. Among the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, the only famous Connate Masters were the descendants of Phantom Valley-Sword Saint Ge Nia and Master of Quicksand Wei Zhuang. The Yin Yang School's Right Protector, Yueshen, the Mohist Giant, the Daoist Xiaoyao Zi, and Master Xiaomeng were a few people.
When a martial artist stepped into the Connate Realm, they would also begin to come into contact with the Dao of nature during their cultivation. When a martial artist cultivated his body, mind, and spirit to the point where they were completely unified, and could perfectly control the "body","heart", and "spirit", then his cultivation of his body would reach the peak. After that, he had to truly understand the world, understand all things, comprehend nature, and be able to interact with the world and become a part of it.
After reaching this step, he would enter the third realm of martial arts, which was called the Way of Heaven and Man or the realm of Heaven and Man Connection.
This realm was a realm that all martial artists in the world yearned for. They could already absorb the power of heaven and earth at any time and place for their own use. They could grasp the operational laws that surpassed the limits of the human body, and thus reach an endless state. It was no exaggeration to say that people who had reached this level could no longer be simply called humans. It was more appropriate to call them demigods!
However, it was too difficult to reach this realm. In fact, there were only a handful of people in the world who knew how to reach this realm. As for the person who had already reached this realm, there was only one person in the world that everyone knew of, and that was the BOSS of the Yin-Yang School, Donghuang Taiyi.
The fourth realm of martial arts, the Void Shattering Realm, was only a legendary realm.
It was said that through relentless cultivation, one could master the laws of the body to the acme of perfection, which was the state of transformation. After that, he would combine the wisdom and talent of the main body with a deep understanding of the universe and all things in the world. He would integrate his heart into the world and then raise his "spirit" to the supreme level of seemingly seeking but not seeking. He would then reach the extreme of the "Heavenly Dao". After that, he would be able to take the final step and shatter the void, becoming a true immortal.
However, legends were just legends. This realm only appeared in myths and legends. Because of this, all the martial artists in the world still yearned for the Way of Celestial Being, and would occasionally fantasize about this so-called fourth realm. No one really pursued this ethereal legend.
Perhaps, only those who had truly reached the Celestial Way would understand the mysteries of this "Shattering the Void" and truly pursue this seemingly non-existent legend. Take East Emperor Taiyi for example. Ji Yun knew that this terrifying existence pursued the " Shattering Void " and the legendary " Immortal Dao ".
Therefore, Ji Yun was not surprised at all that Donghuang Taiyi could see through his cultivation base with a single glance. His strength was no different from being transparent in his eyes. How could he hide it?
Ji Yun did not feel proud of Donghuang Taiyi's praise. Although he was considered a top genius at his age, there were many people who could reach this level. At least, the number of people Ji Yun knew could not be counted on one hand.
However, Ji Yun's situation was a little special. He should have advanced to the Innate Realm long ago, but because of his inner demon, his strength had not been able to break through and was suppressed at the peak of the Postliminary Realm.
This trip had broken through the nightmare in Ji Yun's heart and resolved the confusion in his heart for many years. After two breakthroughs in his mental state, Ji Yun's current mental state cultivation had even surpassed his own cultivation of his body and inner energy. In other words, as long as Ji Yun was willing, he could advance to the ranks of the Xiantian realm at any time, and it would be straight to the middle stage of the Xiantian realm.
After all, Ji Yun had been suppressed at the peak of the Postliminary Realm for far too long. During this period of time, his body and inner energy cultivation had been improving. This was the so-called accumulation of strength.
However, after Ji Yun's state of mind had broken through, he was not in a hurry to do so. Moreover, Chu Nan Gong had also asked him to continue suppressing it. Therefore, Ji Yun was only a half-step to Inborn now. Just as Donghuang Taiyi had said, Ji Yun needed an opportunity to break through.
And this best opportunity was the reason why Ji Yun had returned to the Yin-Yang School-to accept the forbidden trial to officially take over as the Young Master of the Yin-Yang School!
