82: The disciples couldn't sit still any longer and went into seclusion as a group!
Master-Seeking Alliance — Tongtian Treasure Pavilion.
The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat somber.
Mu Qingxue sat upright, the chill around her even more intense than usual.
"Sixth Junior Sister! Is it really okay to leave Revered Master in the Myriad Demon Forest?!" Luo Ximei finally stopped pacing.
Gu Qiuyue, who had been focused on wiping a Jade Slip, looked up and asked, "Fifth Senior Sister, do you think Fourth Senior Sister would harm Revered Master?"
"She wouldn't dare!" Mu Qingxue immediately retorted.
Just then, a Shadow Guard appeared silently in the center of the main hall, kneeling on one knee.
"Reporting to the Alliance Leader, urgent news from the Myriad Demon Forest."
Gu Qiuyue put down the Jade Slip, her expression turning serious: "Speak."
"An hour ago, Mr. Su was sparring with Demon Lord Ye in the Myriad Demon Forest, and during the spar, he attracted a Soul Transformation Heavenly Tribulation." The Shadow Guard was concise.
Before he finished speaking, the temperature in the hall plummeted, and Devilish Qi surged around Luo Ximei.
"What?!"
"Nonsense!"
Two sharp shouts rang out simultaneously.
Luo Ximei was furious: "That lunatic! How dare she let Revered Master Breakthrough at a time like this!"
Gu Qiuyue raised her hand, "The result?"
"The Heavenly Tribulation was a lightning of annihilation, far exceeding the norm.
Demon Lord Ye You forcibly devoured the final tribulation lightning with her Abyssal Devouring Bloodline Manifestation."
"..."
A strange silence fell over the main hall.
Devoured the Heavenly Tribulation?
The fury and worry on Mu Qingxue and Luo Ximei's faces froze.
They knew deeply what that implied; it was no longer something that could be achieved by simply relying on Cultivation or Magic Treasure.
The Shadow Guard concluded: "Mr. Su is safe and sound, and has successfully broken through to the Early Stage of Soul Transformation."
With that, the Shadow Guard's figure vanished.
"Fourth Senior Sister... has actually become this strong..."
Mu Qingxue slowly sat down, the chill in her eyes receding, but her expression was extremely solemn.
She had to admit, if it were her, facing that kind of Heavenly Tribulation, she would definitely not be able to withstand it.
Fourth Senior Sister, she was reliable after all.
This thought arose in the minds of the three simultaneously, then was replaced by an even stronger competitive urge.
Gu Qiuyue said, "Fifth Senior Sister, Seventh Junior Sister! Revered Master has already broken through to the Soul Transformation Stage."
"From the current situation, Revered Master's path to Breakthrough will likely become more difficult each time."
"Now, among the seven of us, my Cultivation is the lowest."
She frankly admitted her shortcoming, but her tone was calm, "I must not bring shame to Revered Master."
Luo Ximei and Mu Qingxue's expressions became serious upon hearing this.
Revered Master's Heavenly Tribulation was more terrifying each time. Next time, when he attempts to reach Void Refining, or even Body Integration, what kind of scene would that be?
At that time, could they still protect Revered Master?
"Sixth Junior Sister, speak your mind directly." Luo Ximei said.
"I plan to enter secluded Cultivation. Unless I Breakthrough, I will not emerge!"
"Secluded Cultivation?" Luo Ximei raised an eyebrow, "The Master-Seeking Alliance has many affairs; can you really leave?"
"Problems that money can solve are not problems."
Gu Qiuyue answered lightly, "The Master-Seeking Alliance's operations have long been on track; my presence or absence doesn't make much difference.
Instead, my Cultivation has become the biggest weakness."
She looked at the two, her tone sincere: "My two sisters, Revered Master is currently in the Myriad Demon Forest, protected by Fourth Senior Sister, so he is very safe.
This is the best time for us to improve ourselves.
If we still want to continue to stay by Revered Master's side, this level of Cultivation is far from enough."
Mu Qingxue did not answer immediately. She stood up and walked to the window.
All this time, she had considered herself the Sect Master of Qingyao Sect and prided herself on reaching Void Refining in a hundred years.
But today, Ye You's performance made her realize that her achievements might be insignificant in front of a true Prodigy.
"I agree." Mu Qingxue turned around, her voice clear and firm, "I also need to enter secluded Cultivation."
Seeing this, Luo Ximei let out a soft chuckle.
"Since both of you say so, how can I fall behind?"
Her thoughts were purer and more domineering.
Revered Master was hers, and no one could snatch him away.
If Ye You could devour the Heavenly Tribulation for Revered Master, then she, Luo Ximei, would be able to slaughter all enemies for Revered Master in the future.
Seeing that both had agreed, Gu Qiuyue's face showed an expression of a plan coming together.
If she entered secluded Cultivation alone, these two sisters would definitely go to Revered Master.
It was better to pull them into secluded Cultivation together, so at least for now, Revered Master would only have Fourth Senior Sister by his side.
She gently clapped her hands, and two maidservants came up, carrying three exquisite Jade Platters.
On each Jade Platter, there was a shimmering Medicinal Pill bottle.
"These are the three [Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Pills] that our Master-Seeking Alliance has collected over the past century, a lost ancient Pill Formula.
This Medicinal Pill has a gentle but long-lasting effect, with miraculous results for breaking through one's Bottleneck, and it has no Pill Poison side effects.
I had prepared them to offer to Revered Master in the future, but now, we will use them first."
She pushed two of the Jade Platters towards Mu Qingxue and Luo Ximei respectively.
"Furthermore, near Tianshu City, three top-tier Spiritual Veins of the continent are suppressed.
I had already ordered the construction of three secluded Cultivation chambers directly above the core of these Spiritual Veins, where the Spiritual Qi concentration is a hundred times that of the outside world.
They are [Crimson Sun Peak], [Mystic Ice Valley], and [Myriad Transformation Peak]."
Gu Qiuyue explained in detail: "[Crimson Sun Peak] has the most vigorous ground-fire Spiritual Qi, suitable for your Demonic Technique tempering, Fifth Senior Sister.
[Mystic Ice Valley], on the other hand, has an eternal cold Qi, complementing your Cultivation Technique, Seventh Junior Sister.
As for me, I will go to [Myriad Transformation Peak], where the Spiritual Qi is the most balanced and peaceful, suitable for me to solidify my Foundation and seek Breakthrough."
"We will enter secluded Cultivation here.
Firstly, we can look out for each other, and secondly, the grand Formation of Tianshu City can also isolate our aura during Breakthrough, avoiding unnecessary trouble."
Luo Ximei and Mu Qingxue looked at the Medicinal Pills before them and listened to Gu Qiuyue's arrangements, both feeling a tremor in their hearts.
The financial power of the Master-Seeking Alliance was indeed unfathomable.
Whether it was the [Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Pills] or the Cultivation chambers at the core of the Spiritual Veins, these were top-tier resources that were hard to come by in the Immortal Cultivation world.
Gu Qiuyue had brought them out to share without hesitation.
Luo Ximei picked up the Medicinal Pill bottle, opened it, and sniffed. A pure Dragon Qi rushed out, making the Demonic Qi within her body become active.
She no longer stood on ceremony, directly put it away, and said to Gu Qiuyue: "Sixth Junior Sister, I will remember this favor.
When I emerge from secluded Cultivation, I will definitely go to the Myriad Demon Palace to find some suitable Demonic Treasures for you."
Mu Qingxue also put away the Medicinal Pill, "Thank you."
Gu Qiuyue, Mu Qingxue, and Luo Ximei reached a consensus and each entered their respective secluded Cultivation chambers at the core of the Spiritual Veins.
The Formation of Tianshu City silently operated, isolating the outside world... Above the Myriad Demon Forest, the oppressive might of the Heavenly Tribulation dispersed, and everything returned to peace.
Ye You's tail wrapped around Su Lin, bringing him back to the bamboo house.
She placed him on the bamboo bed, then sat beside him, propping her chin, her eyes scanning his body.
Su Lin closed his eyes, currently stabilizing his newly Breakthrough Soul Transformation Realm.
Spiritual Power surged within his body, the Nascent Soul in his Dantian opened its eyes, surrounded by a faint golden glow, and his Divine Soul power was several times stronger than before.
"Revered Master." Ye You's voice sounded, carrying a hint of fatigue, "The commotion you caused with this Soul Transformation Breakthrough was too great!"
"You've worked hard."
"'You've worked hard' isn't enough." Ye You leaned closer to him, "You promised to compensate me!"
