"Meridian Opening, Tenth Heaven!"
Early in the morning, Yu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and let out a carefree howl.
With the help of the imitation pearl and the Meridian Opening Pill, he successfully opened his tenth meridian in a short amount of time and stepped into the Tenth Heaven of the Meridian Opening Realm!
There were still three days until the competition between the three realms, so his chances of winning were naturally higher now that he had made another breakthrough.
"Congratulations."
Yuan Lianyao's lazy voice suddenly sounded like a ghost at this moment.
Yu Yuan's expression changed slightly as he abruptly turned his head to look at the clearly closed window. Then, he stared at the beautiful City Lord in a bright red dress and said with a bitter smile, "How long have you been here?"
"It's been a while." Yuan Lianyao didn't have the slightest awareness of being a guest. With a twist of her snake-like waist, her figure flashed in front of Yu Yuan. "The Blackdragon Scissors are the treasure of the Spirit Treasure House. How did you get it? I'm very curious. "
"Where's the Lin Family's daughter?" Yu Yuan asked.
"According to the method you gave me, the father and daughter were personally sent out of Dark Moon City as soon as the poison was removed." Yuan Lianyao took a few steps back and sat on the wooden chair with her two straight legs crossed like the Blackdragon Scissors. With one hand on the table and one hand under her chin, she looked at Yu Yuan with a smile.
Yu Yuan felt uncomfortable under her gaze.
"The spirit art you cultivate is very strange. If I'm not wrong, it should be a high grade spirit art, right?" Her gaze suddenly fell on Yu Yuan's lower dantian. "If the Yu Family had a complete high grade spirit art without any side effects, they wouldn't be in such dire straits."
Spirit arts were divided into low grade, middle grade, and high grade. They were then further divided into nine grades.
The empires and aristocratic families of Qian Xuan Continent mostly cultivated low and middle grade spirit arts.
High grade spirit arts, even if they were only of the first grade, were extremely rare.
High-grade spirit arts meant that one's cultivation speed would be fast, and one would be able to avoid a lot of trouble when breaking through to the next realm. There was even hope for one to enter the Sun Spirit, Freedom, and Primordial Spirit realms.
If a cultivator only cultivated low grade spirit arts from beginning to end and didn't change them midway, it would be almost impossible for them to reach the top of the last three realms.
As for intermediate spiritual arts, there was only a small chance that he could reach the last three realms, Yang Spirit and Freedom.
The Primordial Spirit Realm wasn't something one could hope for with a mid-grade spiritual art.
Most cultivators of the Qian Xuan Continent could only come into contact with low level spirit arts when they first started cultivating.
Then, after he slowly broke through his realm, if he was lucky, he would be able to obtain a suitable middle rank spirit art and continue to cultivate.
If he had the hope of reaching the Tranquil Continent and the Tianyuan Continent in the future, he would be able to obtain the favor of a large sect with a deep foundation and be accepted as a guest elder or worshipped. Only then would he have the opportunity to come into contact with high grade spirit arts.
Even Yuan Lianyao herself was only cultivating a seventh grade middle tier spiritual incantation.
This was something she had obtained in a secret forbidden area after going through numerous dangers and tribulations.
As for Yu Yuan, he was in the Meridian Opening Realm, and the first spirit incantation he cultivated was a high grade one!
What did this mean?
It meant that during his long cultivation journey, Yu Yuan wouldn't have to run around and rack his brains to obtain new incantations to replace the one he was currently cultivating!
"After he woke up, his temperament changed greatly. He's steady and ruthless in his actions, and he seems to be able to concoct pills and possess a high grade incantation..."
As Yuan Lianyao sized up Yu Yuan, she increasingly felt that he was surrounded by mysterious halos.
This had also aroused her curiosity, making her want to peel off the layers of mysterious halos and figure out exactly how many secrets this Yu Clan youth who had come back from the dead was hiding.
"City Lord, you've misjudged me. The incantation I cultivate is very ordinary." Without batting an eyelid, Yu Yuan covered his lower dantian region with the palm of his left hand and said with a teasing smile, "Sister, you're making me, your younger brother, a little flustered when you look at this part of my body!"
"What the hell are you flustered about?!" Yuan Lianyao scolded fiercely before giggling. "Alright, since you don't want to say anything, I won't force you."
CLANK! CLANK!
She placed a dazzling array of spirit plants and a few bottles and jars on the table. "Here, these are the things you asked for. I've made a special trip here to deliver something to you. The old man you saw a few days ago, whose earthly soul was corroded by fire toxins, is very important to me! "
With these words, her expression finally grew serious.
"I hope you'll take it seriously! If you can really get rid of the fire toxins in him, everything will be fine. But if you dare to deceive me or play tricks on me, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes. "
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Yu Yuan said in a low voice. "But you know that the competition between the three realms is about to begin. I hope you can give me some more time."
"A competition between the three realms?" Yuan Lianyao frowned. After pondering for a few seconds, she suddenly said, "Since you call me sister, I'll give you a suggestion. You'd better give up on the competition between the Meridian Opening stage cultivators. "
"Why?" Yu Yuan asked curiously.
"It's for your own good. I don't want anything to happen to you." Yuan Lianyao pondered briefly before adding, "If you insist on joining the competition, I can only say that I'll guarantee that you won't die from serious injuries."
With these words, the closed window silently opened. Yuan Lianyao's enchanting fiery figure suddenly shrank into a dazzling red lotus.
The red lotus floated through the window and rapidly became illusory before disappearing.
"Hmm?!"
Before it finally disappeared, Yuan Lianyao's surprised voice rang out from within the red lotus.
Yu Yuan immediately leaned over to the windowsill and saw An Ziqing, the maidservant who served him, leisurely walking over with a copper basin in her hands.
The young girl was dressed in purple garments. Under the rising sun, she seemed to be emitting a misty light.
"Young master!"
Upon seeing Yu Yuan at the window, the pretty servant girl's eyes lit up. Her smile was so sweet that even Yu Yuan felt a bit dazzled.
Yu Yuan closed his eyes. When he looked again, An Ziqing was already close to him.
The strange feeling that she seemed to be emitting light from before was no longer there. This made Yu Yuan think that it was just an illusion caused by the sunlight shining on the copper basin.
"Little Qing, how did you know that I woke up today?" Yu Yuan asked with a smile.
Before returning from the Spirit Treasure Room and cultivating with the imitation pearl, he had told An Ziqing that he didn't need her to take care of his daily necessities for the time being.
Two days ago, he didn't sense An Ziqing's presence because he had neglected to eat or sleep.
Today, he had just reached the tenth level of the Meridian Opening stage. When he woke up, he first saw City Lord Yuan Lianyao and then saw An Ziqing walking over with a copper basin.
"Young master, I actually come here every morning." An Ziqing rolled her eyes and explained, "It's just that I didn't see you open the door the last few times, so I turned back. What a coincidence today. I saw you looking at me from the window as soon as I came. "
"Did you see a red lotus just now? Did you hear anything?" Yu Yuan asked.
"No. What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Wait a moment."
After closing the window, Yu Yuan quickly walked back to the table and moved the numerous spiritual materials and jars that Yuan Lianyao had brought to the table under the bed, so that An Ziqing wouldn't see them and ask about them incessantly.
After taking a quick look, he knew that the materials he had asked for from the old man who practiced the Scarlet Refining Devil Incantation should be complete.
He only needed a portion of the materials to get rid of the fire poison. He was going to use the other portion to refine a medicinal pill that would allow the old man to stand up again.
"Alright."
After arranging the spiritual materials, Yu Yuan shouted and opened the door to let An Ziqing in.
An Ziqing placed the copper basin and towels on the table and was about to serve Yu Yuan.
"No need. I'll do it myself."
Yu Yuan smiled and motioned for An Ziqing to move aside. Then, he wiped his neck and cheeks himself.
"Young master, have you heard of Huang Bin of the Huang Clan?" An Ziqing suddenly asked.
"Mm." Yu Yuan answered vaguely and continued his actions without even raising his head.
"That Huang Bin has opened all twelve meridians and is at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm." Looking at Yu Yuan, who didn't seem to care, An Ziqing said worriedly, "I heard that he could have tried to break through to the Spirit Nurturing Realm three months ago. He purposely held back and didn't rush into the Spirit Nurturing Realm because he wanted to be the strongest person in the Meridian Opening Realm during the competition between the three realms!
"After all, the competition between the three realms of the four great clans is related to the future profits of the clans."
An Ziqing said seriously.
Yu Yuan wrung the wet towel and finally raised his head. "Of course I know the importance of the competition between the three realms. Otherwise, I wouldn't have cultivated so hard these past few days."
In his eyes, An Ziqing didn't know about cultivation realms, so he didn't tell her that he had entered the tenth level of the Meridian Opening Realm.
"Young master, I heard that Huang Bin said that if you dare to participate in the competition, he will beat you to death during the competition between the three realms!" An Ziqing said anxiously. "I've heard of Huang Bin many times. He's very ruthless. Young master, you just woke up not long ago. Do you want to talk to the old man and ask him not to participate in the competition? "
"Huang Bin?" Yu Yuan rubbed his chin.
"Little Yuan 'er!"
His uncle Yu Wei hurried over. When he saw him, he immediately shouted, "You'd better not participate in the competition between the three realms in three days! In the next three years, you can participate in the Spirit Nurturing Realm battles! "
"Why? Have you heard any news? " Yu Yuan gradually understood that something special must have happened. Otherwise, Yuan Lianyao, An Ziqing, and his uncle wouldn't have come to persuade him to stop the competition.
"The Huang Clan seems to have instructed Huang Bin to kill you during the Meridian Opening Realm battles!" Yu Wei said angrily. "The old man's legs were broken by the Huang Clan. All these years, we've been bullied by the Huang Clan. That's fine, but who would have thought that they would want to kill you when you finally woke up and started on the path of cultivation! "
Yu Yuan frowned. "Can the competition between the three realms of the four great clans determine life and death?"
"If both sides agree, it can." Yu Wei nodded. "I'm afraid that the Huang Clan will deliberately anger you and make you lose your mind. Then, you'll agree to it because of your face. To be honest, although Huang Bin is arrogant, he's indeed powerful in the Meridian Opening Realm. As for you … "
Yu Wei sighed. "You have no combat experience. Even if you're at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm like him, you still have no chance of winning."
"That's right. Combat experience is too important. It's too crucial!" An Ziqing nodded like a chick pecking rice. "It's useless to have cultivation without combat experience!"
"What does grandpa mean?" Yu Yuan asked.
"The old man also thinks that you lack combat experience." Yu Wei didn't hide it. "He thinks that you can participate, but you have to avoid Huang Bin and all of the Huang Clan's sons. If you're really unlucky and run into Huang Bin, just admit defeat. "
"Lack of combat experience, huh?" Yu Yuan muttered to herself, then said, "Uncle, I'm going to participate in the Meridian Opening Realm battle. As for the Huang Clan and Huang Bin, I really want to see what they're capable of to kill me in public! "
