Long Yu and Ling Han split up and headed in the direction of the Zhentian Clan.
Seven days later, Long Yu finally arrived at the entrance of the Heaven Suppression Canyon.
Elder Yu's true spirit had appeared and bought him enough time to escape back to the Zhentian Clan.
He was finally safe after arriving at the Heaven Suppression Canyon.
"Long Yu, you're back!"
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the canyon, before Long Yu could even dismount, he saw a delicate figure running out of the canyon. Her face was filled with joy. It was Liao Lele!
"Oh, it's you."
Long Yu smiled and got off his horse.
"Senior Brother Ling Han returned before you. Now, we know everything about what happened at Ancient Ginseng Forest."
Liao Lele's eyes were filled with joy. "He's been back for a day, but I still haven't seen your shadow. I thought you wouldn't come back."
Long Yu naturally couldn't be bothered with Liao Lele's words.
"Thousand Thread Sect is too despicable. But fortunately, our Zhentian Clan's sect master has already set out to demand an explanation from Thousand Thread Sect. He definitely won't let them off easily!"
Liao Lele waved her little fist and was filled with righteous indignation about Gu Canlin.
"Sect master has made a move? That's good. "
Long Yu nodded his head and frowned, "Is there any news of Elder Yu?"
"No."
Liao Lele's expression dimmed. "Old Black went to provide support yesterday, but there hasn't been any news. I'm afraid …"
It bodes ill.
Long Yu guessed. Elder Yu was fighting one against three. With the Heaven Suppression Palm's true spirit, it shouldn't be difficult for him to escape.
But in order to stop those people from chasing after Long Yu and Ling Han, there was still no news about Elder Yu!
"Kid, come up quickly."
Right at this moment, Old Bai's voice sounded in Long Yu's ears. He was taken aback for a moment, but he nodded his head and called out to Liao Lele. The two of them walked along the mountain path towards the peak of the Heaven Suppression Canyon.
At the top of the mountain, Long Yu saw Master Bai in a white robe, standing on the edge of the cliff with his hands clasped behind his back. The mountain wind was piercingly cold, causing his gray hair to dance wildly. Accompanied by the fluttering of his white robe, he actually looked like a graceful immortal.
"Good kid, not bad, Martial Path Grade Seven."
Old Bai nodded with a smile and said without turning his head.
Long Yu stood not far behind him and said in a deep voice, "It's a pity that my fellow brothers and sisters …"
"I know everything."
Old Bai turned around and waved his hand. "Come, sit down. I heard from Ling Han that Hua Yun and Hua Qing from the Frost Sect and our inner sect disciple Tan Jian tried to kill you, but you killed them all by yourself."
"Yes, but at that time they fought and were both injured."
Long Yu replied after a brief ponder.
"Even if you're injured, you're strong enough to become a core disciple. It shouldn't be a problem for you."
Old Bai nodded his head in satisfaction. He did not feel regretful for Tan Jian's death. On the contrary, he was impressed by Long Yu's talent. As long as Long Yu grew stronger, his influence on the Zhentian Clan was comparable to ten Tan Jians!
"There are a total of one hundred and eight core disciples in the Zhentian Clan. As long as you can challenge any one of them, you'll become a core disciple and have the right to enter the back mountain of the Martial Skill Pavilion to pick a Supreme Martial Skill to practice!"
A Supreme Martial Skill was extremely tempting to any Martial Cultivator. Old Bai believed that it was the same for Long Yu as well.
However, Long Yu was not in a rush. Instead, he just wanted to absorb the Spiritual Qi from the Supreme Ginseng.
Once he reached the Eighth Stage of the Martial Path, the Nine Underworld Dragon Seal would evolve further. Not only would it increase his strength, but it would also give birth to a powerful martial skill!
Long Yu believed that the martial skill derived from the Nine Underworld Dragon Seal would definitely be stronger than the Zhentian Clan's Supreme Martial Skill.
"Kid, I suggest you challenge the core disciples ranked after the hundredth. It's safer that way."
Old Bai said with his eyes narrowed as he stroked his beard.
"Old Bai, I want to challenge Feng Yun!"
Long Yu's words shocked the old man.
"This … Feng Yun?"
Old Bai was stunned. Feng Yun was ranked tenth among the core disciples and he had already practiced more than one Supreme Martial Skill. His fighting strength was outstanding!
Before Long Yu went to the Ancient Ginseng Forest, he was seriously injured by Feng Yun. Now that he had returned from the Ancient Ginseng Forest, he wanted to challenge Feng Yun?
That was too whimsical!
"Kid, you might not know this, but Feng Yun has already stepped into the Ninth Stage of the Martial Path after recovering from his injuries!"
Old Bai said in a serious tone, "If you want to challenge him, I'm afraid you're still far from it. Furthermore, the sect rules state that anyone who challenges a core disciple for the first time is not allowed to challenge the top ten core disciples. You should find another target! "
Long Yu frowned when he heard that.
He understood that he couldn't challenge the top ten core disciples for the first time. If it wasn't like that, wouldn't the top ten core disciples be busy to death?
One had to know that the top ten core disciples were the foundation of a sect. Their most important thing was to cultivate, not accept challenges from others!
"Since that's the case, I'll challenge the 108th."
Long Yu was a little disappointed as he shook his head and said.
Since he couldn't challenge Feng Yun, it didn't matter who he challenged. It was easier to challenge the 108th and the most important thing was to save time.
"Alright."
Old Bai nodded. "I'll help you propose it. Also, when do you want to challenge?"
"Seven days later."
Long Yu said without hesitation.
Right now, there was still about a month before the Feng Clan Gathering. He had to become a core disciple as soon as possible and cultivate a supreme martial technique. Only then would he have the confidence to face Feng Yun at the Feng Clan Gathering.
The current Feng Yun had already stepped into the Ninth Stage of the Martial Path and his combat strength was extremely terrifying.
Long Yu had to make sufficient preparations.
Just the martial technique derived from the Nine Underworld Dragon Seal wasn't enough!
After discussing with Old Bai, Long Yu saw Ling Han who had returned first.
Ling Han told him that he was preparing to go into seclusion for seven days and attempt to break through to the Eighth Stage of the Martial Path. If he succeeded, he would challenge a core disciple with Long Yu.
The two chatted for a while before Ling Han quickly left.
Following that, Long Yu returned to the bamboo house and prepared to absorb the top grade ginseng stored in the Nine Underworld Dragon Seal.
… …
The news that Long Yu was about to challenge the 108th core disciple spread like wildfire through the Zhentian Clan.
"Long Yu, the guy who defeated Tan Yue, Han Jian, Feng Yang, and Fang Kang the moment he entered the sect?"
"That's right, it's him. He just said that he wanted to challenge the 108th core disciple, He Renyi!"
"What kind of joke is this? He's just an outer disciple, yet he wants to challenge a core disciple?"
"Wishful thinking! Does he think that he can become a core disciple just because he went to the Ancient Ginseng Forest? "
Many Zhentian Clan disciples discussed among themselves. They were not optimistic about Long Yu's chances.
However, Long Yu didn't care what others thought of him.
Right now, he was fully focused on absorbing the top grade ginseng's spiritual energy!
"If I want to step into the Eighth Stage of the Martial Path, I must expand the Heavenly Veins. If the seventh stage of the Martial Path's Heavenly Meridian only has a small connection with the heaven and earth, then the eighth stage of the Martial Path's Heavenly Meridian has a line of connection with the heaven and earth! "
Inside the bamboo house, Long Yu focused on cultivation, constantly tempering his body with the dense spiritual energy of the top grade ginseng.
The process of expanding the Heavenly Meridian was not easy for anyone. At the seventh stage of the Martial Path, it became extremely difficult to advance by one stage.
Even Long Yu couldn't do it in one go.
Therefore, he set aside seven days for himself. No matter how difficult it was, he had to break through to the eighth stage of the Martial Path within seven days!
Ordinary people would have to go through untold hardships to break through to the eighth stage of the Martial Path. However, as long as they had enough spiritual energy, it wasn't impossible to do it in one go.
With the support of the dense spiritual energy, Long Yu's Heavenly Meridian continued to expand.
During this process, Long Yu felt that his connection with the heaven and earth was getting closer and closer, allowing him to gain a deeper understanding of the laws of suppression contained in the Heaven Suppressing Art. That trace of divine charm gradually grew stronger in his body.
Not only that, but the meridians in his body had also become thicker under the tempering of the spiritual energy. They could accommodate more Xuan Qi, and this was the foundation for the advancement of the Martial Dao.
Only a stronger body could accommodate more power. And Long Yu, who cultivated the Demon Subduing Tyrant Body, didn't have to worry about this at all.
Until the morning of the third day, Long Yu felt as if his Heavenly Meridian had suddenly been opened. It made him suddenly feel enlightened. Compared to when he was at the seventh stage of the Martial Path, he could feel the aura of heaven and earth!
Following that, the Xuan Qi in his body surged and quickly surged into every inch of his skin, every inch of his bones and flesh, causing his original base strength of 72,000 jin to suddenly rise to 120,000 jin!
120,000 jin was just a rough estimate. According to an accurate description, it was the strength of a hundred and twenty-eight horses. This was the basic strength possessed by an expert at the eighth stage of the Martial Dao.
"Now, when I punch down, it's equivalent to the power of a hundred and twenty-eight horses galloping!"
Long Yu opened his eyes and felt the power in his body surge, as if he could support the heavens and the earth.
The difference between the eighth and seventh stage of the Martial Dao was indeed huge. When one's strength broke through a hundred thousand jin, that feeling was completely different.
Long Yu had previously defeated Tan Jian and the others, who were at the eighth level of the Martial Dao, while they were injured. Otherwise, if he had to fight one against three, Long Yu would have died without a doubt.
"I've finally broken through to the eighth stage of the Martial Dao. The Nine Nether Dragon Seal has indeed begun to transform. "
Long Yu lowered his head and looked at the Nine Nether Dragon Seal on his chest.
He only felt a boiling hot and slightly cold aura from the Nine Nether Dragon Seal into his limbs and bones, causing his entire body to suddenly tremble!
Immediately after, the black lines on the Nine Nether Dragon Seal deepened, giving off an aura that came from the Netherworld.
"Activate!"
When Long Yu felt the transformation of the Nine Nether Dragon Seal, he tried to activate it with his Xuan Qi. Following that, a terrifying force spread to his limbs and bones.
A hundred thousand jin of strength!
The strength of a hundred horses!
After the transformation, the Nine Nether Dragon Seal had indeed increased his strength to a hundred thousand jin, more than ten times the previous strength!
Long Yu's strength had instantly transformed. However, what made him the most delighted was not just this.
A set of top-grade martial arts cultivation methods were deeply engraved in his mind, making it impossible for him to forget them even if he wanted to.
"Nine Nether Dragon Fist, a top-grade martial skill derived from the second transformation of the Nine Nether Dragon Seal. It is one level stronger than a transcendent rank martial skill!"
