550: Chapter 550

A crimson-gold great sun hung high in the sky.

Throughout the Yuntian Sect, there was a dead silence.

Qin Yun stood before the stone tablet, his robes swaying gently as Yang Qi circulated around his body.

That aura was no longer violent, yet it felt heavier than before.

Like a true great sun, it had descended into the center of the square.

No one spoke.

When the stone tablet rioted just now, everyone thought he would be blown apart on the spot.

In the end, not only did he emerge alive, but he had also suppressed that ancestral stone tablet which had been dormant for many years.

A moment later.

The entire square suddenly erupted.

"Has the ancestral stone tablet recognized a master?"

"How is this possible!"

"Who exactly is he?"

"That wasn't a backlash just now, but a Legacy?"

One gaze after another fell upon Qin Yun.

Lin Fan lay in the distance, his face pale and his chest still seeping blood.

He had just been helped up when he saw this scene; a sweetness rose in his throat, and he nearly spat out another mouthful of blood.

Just moments ago, he thought he had triggered the stone tablet, but now he seemed like a joke.

Zhu Yan stood in the crowd, her fingers stiff.

She wanted to say something.

But her lips moved a few times, and not a single word came out.

Right at that moment.

The stone tablet vibrated once more.

*Buzz.*

On the pitch-black body of the tablet, ancient patterns all lit up.

The entire stone tablet emitted a low rumble. From deep within the tablet, wisps of residual Yang Dao Origin and the power left by the ancestor surged toward Qin Yun.

Qin Yun raised his hand and pressed it against the surface of the tablet, offering no resistance.

The Body Scripture circulated.

The Solar Holy Body vibrated.

The surging power was quickly received, dismantled, absorbed, and then integrated into his body.

The Yang Origin no longer collided, and the insights into the Body Dao did not scatter; instead, they followed his blood, Meridians, and Spirit Sea, sinking deeper all the way.

The Yuntian Sect Old Ancestor stood in mid-air, staring at the perfect resonance between the stone tablet and Qin Yun; the last bit of testing in his heart vanished.

What he had brought back this time was not just a Genius.

It was a great Opportunity that could change the Sect's Luck.

The crimson-gold great sun did not dissipate.

On the contrary, it grew even brighter.

Outside the great sun, ancient Divine Runes emerged, slowly rotating around Qin Yun.

The Yang-attribute Spiritual Qi around the square gathered on its own, and even the residual Origin around the stone tablet was drawn in, turning into thin streams that merged into his body.

The faces of some Disciples in the field who Cultivated fire methods and Yang-attribute Cultivation Techniques changed on the spot.

The spiritual power within them trembled; they actually felt a sense of being suppressed.

Someone let out a muffled groan and retreated several steps.

Sweat appeared on some foreheads, and even activating their Cultivation Techniques became sluggish.

It wasn't that Qin Yun had intentionally attacked.

It was simply that once the Holy Body's phenomenon opened, it naturally dominated the field.

On the other side of the square.

Zhu Yan stared blankly at Qin Yun.

Staring at that high-hanging great sun.

Watching those Sect Elders, who were usually high and mighty, now looking solemn, and seeing the shock and awe in the eyes of everyone around.

She finally understood.

Why Qin Yun hadn't paid any attention to her from beginning to end.

It wasn't stubbornness.

It was not feigned indifference.

It was that he simply didn't care about her at all.

Back when the engagement was broken, she stood on high ground, watching Qin Yun fall step by step, thinking she had discarded a useless person and seized a better future.

Looking at it now.

The person she had personally pushed away was no useless person.

It was a great Opportunity capable of changing one's fate.

Zhu Yan's face turned pale bit by bit.

She remembered her former arrogance and that "stray dog" comment from earlier; her face felt hot with shame.

But the most embarrassing thing wasn't any of that.

The most embarrassing thing was...

From start to finish, Qin Yun had not even given her a second glance.

She stood in the crowd, her hands and feet ice-cold.

Like a redundant person.

After a long time.

The light on the stone tablet finally faded slowly.

Qin Yun withdrew his hand, and the crimson-gold great sun faded as well, leaving only a faint outline hanging behind him before finally merging into his body.

The square returned to silence.

The Yuntian Sect Old Ancestor stepped down, standing directly at the very front.

He did not waste a single word.

"From this day forward, Qin Yun is the most important person in the Yuntian Sect."

"No one within the Sect shall treat him with disrespect."

"Violators will be severely punished."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present tightened.

The Old Ancestor had personally set the tone.

This weight was already heavy enough.

The Yuntian Sect Sect Master immediately followed suit.

"Pass down my order."

"Qin Yun shall enjoy the highest level of treatment in the Sect."

"He will have exclusive use of the top-tier Immortal Cave on Heavenly Yang Peak."

"Open the high-level access to the Scripture Pavilion."

"Yang-attribute Spirit Medicines within the Sect shall be prioritized for his allocation."

"The core Cultivation grounds are open to him."

"His status is equivalent to the Old Ancestor."

Several Elders looked at each other and quickly expressed their stance.

Someone gifted a cherished Yang-attribute Spiritual Plant on the spot.

Someone took the initiative to say he could visit the treasury under their management at any time to select what he needed.

Someone was even more direct, inviting Qin Yun to visit their peak when he was free.

Qin Yun's expression was calm as he accepted them one by one.

He did not decline.

Nor did he engage in polite formalities.

To him, these were exactly what he needed most right now.

The commotion thus settled.

But everyone in the Yuntian Sect had now thoroughly remembered this name.

A single tablet deified him.

After that day, discussions about Qin Yun spread throughout the Sect.

Some said the ancestor had chosen a true successor.

Some said the Old Ancestor had picked up a monster.

Others sighed privately, saying that the Yuntian Sect was likely to produce a true Dragon this time.

Qin Yun ignored all of this.

After returning to his new Immortal Cave, he immediately went into secluded meditation.

A month passed in a flash.

During this month, the Yuntian Sect Old Ancestor and Sect Master gave him almost every resource they could.

Qin Yun took the Old Man in the Ring's understanding of the Body Dao, along with the Body Scripture itself, and repeatedly verified them together as if in a furnace.

Qin Yun successfully stepped into the fifth level of the Spirit King Realm.

This speed was already fast enough.

But what was truly important was not his cultivation base.

It was his Physique.

Qin Yun looked inward at himself, staring at that Solar Origin suspended within his body, a trace of thought flashing in his eyes.

This was no ordinary Solar Holy Body.

When the stone tablet's Origin entered his body, three higher-level powers—Grandmist, Desolate Ancient, and Supreme—had all participated in the resonance.

The only one that had barely managed to merge in was the Grandmist power.

Therefore, this Holy Body was still essentially the Solar Holy Body.

But it had already taken on a portion of Grandmist characteristics.

This path was not wrong.

Since Grandmist could merge.

Then Desolate Ancient and Supreme might not be impossible to continue stuffing inside.

A clearer direction gradually formed in Qin Yun's heart.

Using the Solar Holy Body as the main body.

Using the Body Scripture as the furnace.

Slowly guiding the Desolate Ancient and Supreme powers to merge into the solar core.

No need to rush for immediate success.

As long as a truly stable condensation point could first be created within the Solar Origin, the subsequent path could be pushed forward.

Once successful.

This Holy Body would inevitably be completely transformed.

This was a path no predecessor had ever walked.

It was also the path he wanted to take.

After his secluded meditation ended, Qin Yun walked out of his Immortal Cave.

When the Disciples outside saw him, their expressions were very disciplined, and they stopped to salute from a distance.

No one dared to gossip casually like before; their eyes were filled more with awe.

The attitude of the Yuntian Sect's upper echelon toward him was also more solemn than before.

But as soon as Qin Yun came out, he sensed something was wrong.

The security at the mountain gate was much heavier than usual.

Patrolling Disciples had increased.

The aura of the Formations in the shadows was also more active than before.

In these few days, external news arrived one after another, and the Sect Master and Old Ancestor had also consulted secretly several times.

On the surface, the Sect seemed calm, but in reality, the atmosphere was already tense.

Qin Yun looked up toward the distant mountain gate.

Right at this moment.

The sky suddenly darkened.

Clouds surged.

A heavy aura pressed in from outside the mountain gate, and the entire Yuntian Sect shook along with it.

In the next moment.

The Sect-Protecting Formation lit up on its own.

The Sect's alarm bell rang out with a thunderous toll.

*Dong!*

*Dong!*

*Dong!*

The sound of the bell exploded, startling all the peaks.

The Yuntian Sect Old Ancestor, Sect Master, and several Elders appeared simultaneously, standing high in the sky with solemn faces.

Inside and outside the Sect, all Disciples stopped and looked up together.

Outside the mountain gate.

Several figures stood upon the clouds, weighing down the surroundings with a heavy gloom.

No one spoke.

But that oppressive feeling of ill intent was already blowing toward them.

The leader's gaze crossed multiple mountain gates and fell toward the depths of the Sect, his voice echoing throughout the entire Yuntian Sect.

"Hand over the one with the Physique phenomenon."
