Xian Ni: I will always be a level above Wang Lin!

Chapter 16 Arrives at the Dual Cultivation Sect!

The late-stage Nascent Soul ancestor surnamed Song from the War God Temple stepped forward, his gaze lingering on Chu Yuan for a moment, his eyes filled with surprise and doubt.

"Fellow Daoist Chu... has this been a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage? Or...?"

Chu Yuan smiled and said calmly, "I just broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. The strength I had just displayed at the early stage of the Divine Transformation realm was merely due to the formation; it's nothing to mention."

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.

That's a lie... Relying on formations to reach the Nascent Soul stage is still a Nascent Soul stage!

In the cultivation world, strength is paramount. Whether it's your own cultivation level or the enhancement of an array, if you can fight, you can fight. Being able to intimidate an old monster in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm is a true testament to your abilities.

No one expected that Chu Yuan would reach such a level so quietly.

Two years ago, he was just a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Core Formation. Although he could kill early Nascent Soul cultivators, he was still only at the Core Formation stage.

In just a short period of time, he has already become able to rival the mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Such a growth rate is simply unbelievable.

The old man surnamed Song was overjoyed, but he didn't show it on his face. He bowed respectfully and spoke in a solemn voice.

"Fellow Daoist's cultivation has now reached the heavens. In that case, the position of leader of the Fire Burning Alliance will henceforth be handed over to you. I hope you will not refuse!"

Upon hearing this, the others exchanged glances, then bowed and said in unison, "Please accept the position of Alliance Leader, Fellow Daoist Chu!"

Chu Yuan remained silent for a moment, then glanced at everyone present.

The three Nascent Soul ancestors all bowed and invited him with sincere expressions.

Although he is only a member of the Luohe Sect, his current strength is undeniable. He is indeed the best choice to be the leader of the alliance. He is a powerhouse comparable to the Nascent Soul stage, and it is only a matter of time before he takes charge of the entire Xuanwu Kingdom!

"Can."

Chu Yuan nodded.

"However, I usually stay in seclusion to cultivate, so I'll leave the management of the alliance to you all."

Everyone quickly replied, "Of course, of course. Alliance Leader, please focus on your cultivation; we will handle the alliance affairs ourselves."

Chu Yuan nodded and turned to look at Lan Ruo and Mo Yuan.

Lan Ruo's eyes flickered slightly beneath the light veil. She hadn't expected Chu Yuan to grow so quickly, to the point where she now had to look up to him.

Chu Yuan said no more, and with a flash, he teleported away from the place.

……

After leaving the Fire Burning Alliance's base, Chu Yuan teleported repeatedly, his figure flickering in and out of sight in the void.

Each teleportation covered dozens of miles, and after a short while, he arrived in front of a huge mountain gate.

The mountain gate was built against the mountain, with a magnificent presence. Two stone peaks stood like giant pillars on the left and right, and a square stone plaque about ten feet in size hung in the middle, with the three large characters "Dual Cultivation Gate" written on it. The strokes were graceful and delicate, revealing an indescribable ambiguity.

The entire mountain gate was shrouded in a light pink protective array, and faint, seductive music could be heard as the array light swirled, making one's mind sway.

Chu Yuan hovered in mid-air, his gaze sweeping coldly over the mountain gate.

Dual Cultivation Sect.

During the great war between Xuanwu Kingdom and the Fire Alliance, he was chased by a mid-stage Nascent Soul expert from Xuanwu Kingdom and was seriously injured. It took him a whole month to recover.

That person was Xie Yu, the founder of the Dual Cultivation Sect.

In that battle, he fought with all his might to escape from his opponent, and he was in a very sorry state.

Now that he has broken through his limits, if he doesn't come looking for revenge, then he wouldn't be Chu Yuan.

He cultivates Taoism, and what he cultivates is the clarity of a single thought.

He kills when he wants, does what he wants, avenges every wrong and repays every kindness, never wrongs himself and owes no one anything.

Chu Yuan raised his hand.

Vast spiritual power surged forth from within him, condensing into a gigantic hand that blotted out the sky.

The giant hand was a hundred feet in size, with five distinct fingers and clear palm lines. It was wrapped in blue lightning, crackling and radiating a terrifying pressure that made people's breath suffocate.

"Evil Jade, come out here!"

Chu Yuan let out a low shout, his voice like thunder, shaking the entire mountain gate.

Before the words were even finished, a giant hand slammed down!

boom!!!

The palm print slammed into the mountain-protecting array, and the lightning and pink array light collided violently, unleashing a deafening roar.

The pink array of light lasted for less than a breath before shattering like an eggshell, turning into countless points of light that dissipated into the air.

The entire mountain gate shook violently from the blow, and rubble fell from the stone peaks on both sides, splashing up a cloud of dust as it hit the ground.

The protective array of the mountain collapsed in an instant.

Several figures rushed out from the depths of the mountain gate in an instant, moving at great speed, and arrived opposite Chu Yuan in the blink of an eye.

The leader was dressed in a pink robe, with a handsome face and a feminine temperament. He was none other than Xie Yu, the founder of the Dual Cultivation Sect.

Two other people followed behind him, both with the cultivation level of the early Nascent Soul stage.

Xie Yu recognized Chu Yuan at a glance, and his expression changed drastically.

"It's you!"

His gaze swept over the collapsed protective array, then landed on Chu Yuan. A mixture of shock and anger flashed in his eyes as he sternly said, "Chu Yuan, how dare you destroy my protective array? Are you trying to break the ceasefire agreement between us?"

Chu Yuan stared at him, his face calm, but his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Noisy."

A flash of bloodlust appeared in his eyes, and a thin, hair-like bolt of crimson lightning shot out from between his brows.

Xie Yu's pupils suddenly contracted as he tried to dodge, but he found that the speed of the crimson lightning far exceeded his reaction limit, and he didn't even have time to think.

puff!

The crimson lightning instantly entered his brow and pierced straight into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Xie Yu's head exploded as if crushed from the inside by an invisible hand, spraying blood and brain matter everywhere. The headless corpse swayed in the air before falling straight down.

From the moment Chu Yuan made his move to the moment Xie Yu died, it was only a breath's time. A mid-stage Nascent Soul expert didn't even have a chance to resist before he was killed and his life was extinguished.

Chu Yuan raised his hand and swept the evil jade's storage bag and the fleeing soul into his hand, then sealed it away and put it into his sleeve.

The other two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators of the Dual Cultivation Sect stood frozen in place, dumbfounded, their bodies stiff as stone.

A mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator... was actually killed in a single exchange?

They looked at each other and saw endless fear in each other's eyes.

To be able to instantly kill someone in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, what level of cultivation is that? Even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage couldn't do that, could it be... a Deity Transformation stage cultivator?!

Chu Yuan turned his gaze to the two of them and spoke calmly.

"Hand over 90% of the Dual Cultivation Sect's resources, and pay tribute annually thereafter. You may live. Otherwise..."

He paused, a flash of crimson lightning appearing in his eyes.

"die."

The two Nascent Soul ancestors felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads, and the hair on their bodies stood on end.

They had no doubt that if they dared to say "no," they would follow in Xie Yu's footsteps the next moment.

"senior!"

The two bowed deeply.

"Our Dual Cultivation Sect agrees! Ninety percent of our resources will be paid as tribute annually, without question!"

Chu Yuan nodded, his tone remaining calm: "Deliver the items to the Luohe Gate of the Fire Burning Alliance within half a day. If it's late, I'll come again."

"yes!"

The two Nascent Soul ancestors nodded repeatedly, bowed deeply, and dared not raise their heads.

Chu Yuan said no more, and with a flash, he disappeared into the horizon.

next.

Shennong Sect.
