You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?

"There's no barrier," Baili Fengzhi said. The elder and the young man exchanged glances, nodded slightly, and said, "Indeed, we haven't sensed any presence. It seems you are truly a Daoist master. At least, this Concealing Breath Technique is quite extraordinary." The young man, Pei Bin, pondered briefly, then said, "In that case, we shall remain in Qingdu for two more days." "If His Highness doesn't return within two days, we'll have no choice but to return to Di Hong City to report," the elder said softly. With that, the two turned and left. Baili Fengzhi sat alone in the hall, frowning silently, feeling a bit worried. "Where on earth has His Highness gone... Why isn't he back yet?" Three days ago, she had received a note from Lin Yue, which mentioned that the Patrol Envoys might be disguised members of the Tantian Sect. If these two Patrol Envoys intended to leave, she was to try to delay them. So, she had to find a reason to keep them just now. "Should I use the Sahara Six Elements Life Talisman once more to find him?" Baili Fengzhi hesitated and wavered. After Daoist Tu gave her this Life Talisman, she only used it once, finding Lin Yue safe, and had not used it again. In fact, as long as the talisman absorbed enough essence, it could continue to be used. She didn't want Lin Yue to be found by the fake Patrol Envoys, so she intentionally said it could only be used once. "Forget it, I'll wait a bit longer." Baili Fengzhi looked at the Life Talisman in her hand; there was nothing unusual, indicating Lin Yue was currently not in danger. Though she didn't know why Lin Yue had asked her to keep the fake Patrol Envoys, she knew that someone as cunning as Lin Yue surely had a reason for his instructions. "If he doesn't come back within two days, the Tantian Sect will escape." Baili Fengzhi furrowed her brows, "What on earth is Lin Yue doing, why hasn't he returned yet..." ... In a secluded cave mansion, Yu Shiqi sat lazily at the stone table in the cave mansion, sprawled across the table, boredly flipping through the book in her hand. For some reason, since she turned into this jade-like beauty, she found it difficult to settle her mind for cultivation. His Highness had mentioned that this transformation might influence one's character. Could it be that this Patrol Envoy named Ye Chenshuang was originally this lazy? Moreover, fond of showing her shoulders... Yu Shiqi tilted her head to look at her exposed shoulder, realizing that the attire of the Patrol Envoy had been modified, making it so easy for her shoulder to be exposed. Suddenly— "Hmm?" Yu Shiqi sat up straighter, turning her head to look at Lin Yue, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of surprise. "His Highness is about to break through the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier? So soon?" At this moment, she could clearly sense Lin Yue's rapidly changing aura. It was a complete transformation. From mortal to a true cultivator. Breaking through the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier marked the true start of absorbing the Five Elements Essence. "Truly this soon?" Yu Shiqi looked at Lin Yue in astonishment. Although she had achieved this level of cultivation at only fourteen, much younger than His Highness, it was because she had consumed numerous Heaven and Earth Treasures since childhood. Like the noble offspring of the Xiahong clan, she enhanced her potential by nurturing her bloodline before her body fully developed, making awakening easier. After all, in the Xiahong clan, only the prince was sure to awaken. After three generations, the chance of bloodline awakening decreased significantly. But this His Highness had grown up among mortals, never consuming any Heaven and Earth Treasures, yet managed to awaken his bloodline only upon reaching adulthood. To have broken the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier after just a few days of cultivation was astounding enough. At this moment, the essence in the cave mansion surged and flowed wildly. It seemed to transform into a vortex of elemental essence. And at the center of the vortex sat Lin Yue, cross-legged on the stone bed. With his eyes tightly closed, Lin Yue's whole body trembled slightly, and his flesh became somewhat heated. Moments ago, he had already broken through the first Heavenly Barrier—the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier. After breaking this barrier, he immediately felt as if he had shattered some sort of shackle, as the speed at which he absorbed the wind, water, fire, and earth elements had increased by hundreds or even thousands of times! Previously, the speed of absorbing essence was like a few occasional drops from a loosely turned faucet, but now it was like the faucet had burst, only limited by the insufficient supply. Luckily, the concentration of essence in the stone bed area of the cave mansion was immense; otherwise, outside it wouldn't have been this quick. "Whoosh—" At this moment, a massive amount of Earth Element Essence almost frantically washed over his body, continually absorbed under his bloodline's mystical powers, propelling his physical form to improve remarkably quickly! His musculature and skeleton slightly trembled with the rapid transformation, their strength significantly enhanced with each tremble. As his blood and vitality surged fiercely, they became heated, each bit of flesh tightening and consolidating firmly. And the Water Element stored in his head, the Wind Element at his heart, and the Fire Element in his dantian, all continued to merge with vast quantities of water, fire, and wind essences, becoming more potent and formidable. At this moment, Lin Yue was completely transforming toward transcending mortality! It was as if taking the first step from a mortal to an Ancient God. Breaking through the Five Elements Heavenly Barrier was the first transformation from the mundane. Mortal beings had never absorbed the essence of the Five Elements from the world, so their innate life yearning was like the state of long-term hunger. Therefore, the first assimilation was the most rapid, with the transformation being extremely intense! Ordinary Martial Cultivators, after absorbing the Five Elements Essence from the world post-mortality, could possess bodies like hardened steel, capable of immense strength, let alone the bloodline of the Xiahong clan? The magnitude of the first transformation is the greatest, from then on, it would be a long, gradual process.
