Upon returning to the Zetian Sect, Chen Nian immediately arranged accommodations for Ja Na and Ja Wau. He decided to let them become sect disciples first before giving them special training.After everything was settled, Chen Nian entered the World Ring, which he had not visited for a long time. The moment he entered, he immediately sensed an extremely strong fluctuation of energy within. From that feeling, Chen Nian could estimate that someone had reached a higher stage.Chen Nian’s gaze fell upon Zhu Que, who was currently cultivating. The energy emanating from her body was so powerful that Chen Nian knew the woman he loved had reached the early stage of the Cave Realm.When Zhu Que opened her eyes, she felt extraordinary power flowing through her body. She smiled at Chen Nian, showing her gratitude and happiness.“Chen Nian, I’ve successfully reached the early stage of the Cave Realm,” Zhu Que said enthusiastically.Chen Nian’s face lit up upon hearing her words. He was proud of he

Lihua snapped out of her daze, her eyes staring at the gloomy sky. Chen Nian’s voice, her companion in battle and lover, rang clearly in her ears. “Face the Heavenly Wrath—don’t be afraid!”Lihua’s face looked tense, but after seeing the confident smile on Chen Nian’s face, she nodded firmly. She gripped her cold sword tightly, then shot into the sky like an arrow released from a bow.“Ice Lotus!” Lihua shouted, immediately unleashing her signature technique. Ice particles appeared around her, forming countless beautiful lotus flowers. With a single swing of her cold sword, she directed the ice lotuses toward the lightning raging in the sky.Boom!A massive explosion occurred as the ice lotuses collided with the roaring lightning. Dark clouds churned, lightning streaked across the sky, while the shimmering ice lotuses danced among the flashes. Lihua fought with all her strength, facing the terrifying Heavenly Wrath.When it was over, Lihua felt a sense of comfort from a cold light tha

Xu Xuan briefly shifted his attention away from Xi Zhengtong and looked at Chen Nian with a smile on his face. He nodded slowly, acknowledging the strength of the opponent he had just faced in a serious battle. “It’s been a long time since I’ve fought this seriously. I’m glad to have an opponent like you! I take back what I said about you being weak. Turns out you have many trump cards,” he said sincerely. Chen Nian’s face remained calm, but deep inside he felt worried about the presence of Xu Xuan and Xi Zhengtong in his world. “You haven’t seen everything yet. It’s best if you leave. You are not from this world. You don’t belong here!” he said firmly, making it clear that he already knew their origins. “You’re right, we are indeed not from this world,” Xu Xuan admitted in a low tone. “However, this battle has opened our eyes that this world has warriors as strong as you. We respect that, but before we leave, I want to see the extent of your true power,” Xu Xuan challenged enthusia

In a critical moment with his life hanging by a thread, Xu Xuan used a Special Technique—one that was nearly forbidden—just before his death to deceive Chen Nian. With his eyes closed and breath ragged, he clenched his fists and gathered every last bit of strength remaining in his body.This technique was extremely dangerous and risky. Cold sweat poured down Xu Xuan’s forehead as he felt the long arm of Heavenly Flame trying to grasp his soul. However, with astonishing speed, the forbidden technique managed to trick the Heavenly Flame, leaving it confused and momentarily stunned.Even so, Xu Xuan knew he had sacrificed most of his soul to use this technique. But he had no other choice. To him, it was better to sacrifice himself to deliver a message to his Master than to have his soul trapped and destroyed by his enemy.His soul shot forward at unimaginable speed, crossing countless dimensions before finally arriving in another world. Xu Xuan’s vengeful spirit found itself heading towa

Chen Nian finally succeeded in healing Zhu Que, who had been severely injured by Xi Zhengtong’s kick. Meanwhile, Lan Lihua had also recovered after enduring a long struggle against the pain that had ravaged her body. Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Flame offered a suggestion that changed everything: the Yin-Yang Technique—a dual cultivation method that allows two people to gain tremendous benefits with only half the effort. This approach was far more efficient than constantly seeking external resources.However, this technique was not without consequences. Behind its extraordinary benefits lay equally significant side effects. Each woman could only use this technique once in her lifetime, and violating that limit carried immense risks. Moreover, the cultivation partner had to be stronger than the one using the Yin-Yang Technique in order to absorb the Pure Yin that would be produced.Coincidentally, Lan Lihua had just reached the Sky Realm through the inherited cultivation method of the Ic
