483: Ninth level of the Heavenly Net Realm

In the following days, Yang Lingchen kept Cultivating on Xuanbing Peak.

There were abundant resources in the Storage Rings of Quan Guanqing and Li Xiaoming, so Yang Lingchen did not need to perform missions to earn any contribution points.

Time spent Cultivating always passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed.

On this day, Yang Lingchen's sound transmission jade vibrated, and he quickly picked it up.

Immediately after, Su Yuyan's voice came from within: "I am at the Medicinal Cuisine Hall."

Yang Lingchen tidied up briefly and then flew all the way towards the Medicinal Cuisine Hall.

After entering the Medicinal Cuisine Hall, he found the private room where Su Yuyan was.

"Where is Li Hanyan? Didn't she leave with you? Why haven't I seen her return?" Su Yuyan asked curiously.

"Sister Hanyan has gone to the Desolate Ancient Central Continent." Yang Lingchen's tone was slightly heavy.

"The Desolate Ancient Central Continent?" Su Yuyan looked surprised, "Why did she go there?"

"She was injured, and only by going to the Desolate Ancient Central Continent can she be cured."

A trace of sorrow appeared on Yang Lingchen's face, and then he recounted the events that he and Li Hanyan had encountered.

Of course, he naturally would not mention the matter of him killing Tan Shaodu and Quan Guanqing.

"Lingchen, don't worry. Since that Mu Qingcheng has promised to treat her, she will definitely be fine."

Su Yuyan comforted him. Although she and Li Hanyan would occasionally bicker, upon hearing this news, she suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness.

"She will definitely be fine, and I will definitely bring her back."

Yang Lingchen's tone was incomparably firm. Since Li Hanyan could sacrifice her life for him, he would absolutely not let this woman down.

"By the way, in one year's time, it will be the Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle. Are you interested in participating?"

Seeing that Yang Lingchen's mood was rather low, Su Yuyan began to change the subject.

"Of course I will participate." Yang Lingchen nodded, "And my goal is to aim for the champion."

"Then you must work hard! The top fifty in previous Ranking Battles have basically been controlled by the Four Great Super Factions. Our Six Great Top Factions have never entered the top fifty," Su Yuyan said.

"How many people from our Six Great Factions will participate?" Yang Lingchen asked.

"Our Six Great Top Factions each have five spots per Sect, and the Four Great Super Factions each have twenty spots. The final ranking of each faction will be determined based on their overall results."

Following that, Su Yuyan recounted some things about past Ranking Battles.

"Sister Yuyan, have you heard about the rewards for this Ranking Battle?" Yang Lingchen took a gentle sip of spiritual tea.

"It is said that those ranked in the top fifty can obtain the opportunity to enter the Divine Origin Pool for a baptism. As for the rewards for the top ten and the champion, I am not very clear about them," Su Yuyan said.

"Divine Origin Pool? What kind of place is that?" Yang Lingchen replied.

"The Divine Origin Pool is condensed from Divine Origin Veins and contains a large amount of Divine Origin Water. A single baptism inside can greatly improve one's Physical Body, Soul, and cultivation level."

A trace of yearning appeared in Su Yuyan's eyes.

"Sister Yuyan, take these Xuanzun Pills and strive to raise your cultivation level in advance. When the time comes, we will enter the top fifty together."

Yang Lingchen took out some supreme grade Xuanzun Pills he had recently refined from the haotian jade space and handed them to Su Yuyan.

"supreme grade Xuanzun Pills? Where did you get so many supreme grade Xuanzun Pills?"

A trace of shock appeared in Su Yuyan's eyes; after all, these were supreme grade Xuanzun Pills!

"I refined them myself," Yang Lingchen said casually.

"Impossible. You are only at the Heavenly Net Realm; how could you possibly refine Medicinal Pills of the Xuanzun Realm, and supreme grade ones at that?"

Su Yuyan's expression was full of doubt, as if to say: "Stop bragging in front of me."

"Sister Yuyan, do you want them or not? If you don't, give them back to me." Yang Lingchen's mouth curled up slightly, forming a very natural smile.

"I want them, of course I want them."

Su Yuyan quickly put away the supreme grade Xuanzun Pills, as if afraid that Yang Lingchen would take them back.

"If they are not enough, you can find me again, but you must bring the medicinal materials yourself," Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

"Why are you suddenly being so good to me? You don't have ulterior motives, do you?" Su Yuyan smiled faintly.

"Of course, you are so beautiful, it is very normal to have ulterior motives towards you," Yang Lingchen smiled and pursed his lips.

"Stop with the glib tongue," Su Yuyan said coquettishly, "Right, there is a piece of good news, I wonder if you have heard it?"

"What is it?" Yang Lingchen asked casually.

"I heard from my Revered Master that the soul lamps of Tan Shaodu and Elder Quan Guanqing seem to have gone out," Su Yuyan whispered.

"Of course I know, I killed them," Yang Lingchen chuckled.

"Yang Lingchen, why are you full of empty talk lately? Would it kill you not to brag?"

Su Yuyan rolled her eyes at Yang Lingchen.

She did not believe that Yang Lingchen could kill Quan Guanqing; after all, Quan Guanqing's cultivation level was at the ninth layer of the Xuanzun Realm, while Yang Lingchen was only at the Heavenly Net Realm. The gap between the two was self-evident.

"Believe what you want."

Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

Afterward, the two chatted for a while longer before each leaving.

After returning to Xuanbing Peak, Yang Lingchen once again entered a state of seclusion.

Time passed unconsciously during Cultivation, and soon another three months had passed.

At this time, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level had reached the Peak of the eighth layer of the Heavenly Net Realm, only one step away from the ninth layer of the Heavenly Net Realm.

He was seen mobilizing all the Divine Origin Power within his body and then continuously charging towards the barrier of the ninth layer of the Heavenly Net Realm.

With continuous impacts, cracks gradually appeared on the barrier of the ninth layer of the Heavenly Net Realm.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen gathered his strength in one go, condensed the Divine Origin Power into a sword blade, and then furiously charged forward.

"Boom... boom... boom...!"

"Heavenly Net Realm, ninth layer."

At this moment, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level finally broke through.

After the Breakthrough, he did not rush to come out of seclusion. After all, there was still one year until the Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle. He could completely raise his cultivation level by another level, and only then would he have enough confidence to win the champion.

As far as Yang Lingchen knew, the strength of the contestants in this year's Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle far exceeded previous ones, and it was very likely that Myriad Illusions Realm contestants would appear.

Therefore, before that, all Yang Lingchen could do was to try his best to raise his cultivation level.

Yang Lingchen still attached great importance to this Ranking Battle; after all, the rewards for the Ranking Battle were very generous, especially for the champion.

If he wanted to quickly raise his cultivation level, then he absolutely could not miss this Ranking Battle.

In addition, there was one more thing that had always been engraved in Yang Lingchen's heart, and that was to destroy the Li Family of Great Zhou City.

However, with his current strength, it was almost impossible to destroy the Li Family of Great Zhou City.

Because the Li Family was backed by the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty after all. If Yang Lingchen destroyed the Li Family, it would definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, which would very likely bring huge crises to him and Wentian Palace.

Ever since the Great Yan Academy was destroyed because of him, Yang Lingchen did not want to wrong anyone else.

Although he did not have much sense of belonging to Wentian Palace, on his path of growth, Wentian Palace had played a certain role to some extent.

If it were not for Wentian Palace, Yang Lingchen would very likely still be wandering in the Void Spirit Realm.

Therefore, before having absolute strength, Yang Lingchen also did not want to casually bring trouble to Wentian Palace.

...

Wentian Peak, Palace Master Hall.

"Revered Master, who exactly killed Junior Brother Shaodu?"

A young man with a steady aura and a fierce appearance asked urgently.

"Shaojun, you do not need to ask about Shaodu's matter. Now, Revered Master is giving you a task: go to Xuanbing Peak immediately and challenge Yang Lingchen. I want him dead."

Palace Master's eyes revealed cold killing intent.

"This Disciple will definitely complete the task."

Xu Shaojun responded respectfully.

Although he did not know who Yang Lingchen was, he would try his best to complete the task given by his Revered Master, no matter what.
