Chapter 753: Sixth Rank
Chapter 753: Sixth Rank
After muttering to himself, Su Jingzhen was about to head in Shen Yifeng’s direction.
However, at that moment, Ji Wuya suddenly turned to look at Shen Yifeng.
“Follow me back to the Ji clan.
Some old fellows want to meet you.
Over the past few decades, you should have a good idea of how the Ji Clan has treated you.
Now it’s time for you to make a statement. The situation in the Luo River Basin is such that you can no longer remain ambiguous.”
Ji Wuya’s tone was quite calm, devoid of any emotion.
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared at the corner of Shen Yifeng’s mouth.
He then held his sword and bowed respectfully to Ji Wuya.
“Junior understands!”
After giving a positive reply, Shen Yifeng walked over to Su Jingzhen and the others.
“There is no need for many questions or many words.
Things have reached the best possible outcome.
The situation in the Luo River Basin may change significantly.
Brat, take care of yourself first.”
Shen Yifeng said nothing else.
He just gave a simple reminder before walking over to Ji Qinghe.
For Shen Yifeng, breaking the curse on his body was the greatest happiness.
Breaking through the Middle Nascent Soul stage would be as easy as eating and drinking.
He would no longer have to worry about his lifespan.
Just being at the Middle Nascent Soul stage had given him the power of an Ascendant, and it was unimaginable how strong he would be when he broke through to the Ascendant stage.
After that, the Ji Clan people left Heavenly Deity Island under the leadership of Ji Qinghe and others.
Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao also approached the Dark Unicorn who was still standing in the void.
“Lord, are you coming back with us to the Heavenly Dragon Race territory?”
Technically, as the first sequence members, Qiu Yaoyao and Su Jingzhen held a higher status than the Dark Unicorn, despite its formidable strength, as it was ultimately just the Grand Elder’s mount.
However, at this moment, Qiu Yaoyao and Su Jingzhen showed great respect to the Dark Unicorn.
Upon hearing this, the Dark Unicorn shook its head. “The matter on Heavenly Deity Island is still unresolved. I must remain here to guard it.
The one from the Divine Kingdom will eventually resurface. If there’s no one here to stop him, his appearance will surely bring great disaster to the Luo River Basin.”
It spoke calmly, but its words revealed a deep respect for the ancient demon king.
Indeed, as the leader of an ancient civilization, it would be wise to take him very seriously now that he has awakened.
After all, he had just awakened, and merely absorbing the life force and flesh of a few thousand Unity Realm cultivators was enough to restore him to the Spirit Immortal stage.
Given more time, it wouldn’t be surprising for him to recover to the Mystic Immortal Realm or even the True Immortal stage.
For those who had left earlier, the Void Eye had already been sealed by the Dark Unicorn, ensuring eternal peace.
Only the Dark Unicorn knew the gravity of the situation.
At this moment, Qiu Yaoyao’s brows instantly furrowed. “According to your words, this matter is very serious?”
The unicorn nodded again. “Very serious!
I will stay here to keep watch. If anything goes wrong, I will notify my master to return.”
As these words were spoken, Qiu Yaoyao’s heart was once again filled with anxiety.
Of course, the unicorn’s master was the Great Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Race.
He was the true pillar of the Heavenly Dragon Race, the white jade pillar that supports the sky and the purple gold beam that spans the sea.
“I understand. I will return, and the Heavenly Dragon Race will assist the lord in managing the situation.
Please rest assured and continue to avert any threats here.”
As she spoke, Qiu Yaoyao’s tone was incredibly serious.
The Dark Unicorn nodded again.
At this moment, his gaze turned to Su Jingzhen.
“You are very capable. With you to assist Yaoyao, this generation of the Heavenly Dragon Race might reach its peak.”
This was the second time the Dark Unicorn had directly complimented Su Jingzhen, and he did so without any pretense.
“Predecessor, you are flattering me.”
Su Jingzhen bowed respectfully, and then they did not hesitate.
They returned to the outer streets of Heavenly Deity Island and used a super teleportation array to leave.
The Heavenly Deity Island remained as busy and vibrant as before.
But no one there knew the extent of the crisis.
…
With a flash of light, Su Jingzhen and the others emerged from the teleportation array.
They were back in the familiar territory of Heavenly Dragon Race.
“Sister Yaoyao, what role will our Heavenly Dragon Race play in this matter?”
Su Jingzhen asked Qiu Yaoyao again, his tone serious.
He could see that a conflict between the Yan and Ji clans was inevitable.
The situation would inevitably affect the dynamics of the Luo River basin in a short period of time.
At this juncture, the attitude of the Heavenly Dragon Race was crucial.
“I can’t say for sure.
However, when necessary, the Heavenly Dragon Race would stand by the Ji Clan side.
After all, they were close to us on Heavenly Deity Island.
The Heavenly Dragon Race, no matter how foolish, wouldn’t abandon a top-tier force that has willingly submitted to them.”
Qiu Yaoyao analyzed after a moment of silence.
Su Jingzhen nodded, not dwelling on it too much.
After all, it seemed that the people he cared about in the Luo River Basin were doing well.
So let the dynamics of the Luo River Basin develop as they might.
In the end, he was merely at the Body Sovereign Realm. Despite his elevated status, how much could he really influence things?
While they were talking, the two of them had already returned to their residence by Heavenly Green Lake.
Upon their arrival, Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao glanced at the courtyard where Xuening resided.
They saw that the courtyard was enveloped in a radiant aura of five colors.
A scorching fragrance of elixirs wafted out from it.
As usual, a crowd had already gathered around Xuening’s courtyard, drawn by the unusual phenomenon above it.
It was clear that this was due to another breakthrough in her alchemy skills.
Arriving at the entrance of Xuening’s courtyard, Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao exchanged glances again.
They both saw the astonishment in each other’s eyes.
How long had it been since Xuening became a 5th Rank Alchemist?
If she were to break through again, she would already be at the 6th rank.
Was this even possible?
“Is the Pure Dan Heart really that powerful?
It’s only been a few days. At this rate, wouldn’t Sister Xuening easily reach the peak of alchemy?
At that time, she would be far more desirable than us in this cultivation world.
I now understand why the three elders gave her the status of First Sequence right away.
I’m becoming more and more curious about her true identity.”
Hearing Qiu Yaoyao’s words, Su Jingzhen’s heart stirred.
Xuening had the Pure Dan Heart, and he, Su Jingzhen, also possessed a Dan Heart.
If one were to compare, the Dan Heart he controlled should be even more dominant.
If he were as devoted to alchemy as Xuening, would his current achievements have also reached the 5th or 6th rank?
