In truth, Zhang Xuan could understand the intentions of the elders and Luo Ganzhen as well.
His name, Luo Tianya, was simply too insignificant. If he wanted to swiftly establish the Luo Clan's reputation and prestige, he would have to trample on the rising star, Zhang Xuan!
Stifled, Zhang Xuan turned to look at Lozosy, who was waiting for him by the side, only to see a smile on her face. Ever since they met, she had always been cold and aloof. He had never seen such a radiant smile on her face before.
In an instant, Zhang Xuan felt even more stifled.
Is she still my girlfriend? Even at this stage, she still refuses to say a single word …
"Actually, I think that it would be better for you to agree!"
Just as Zhang Xuan was at a loss for words, Lozosy suddenly stopped smiling and sent a telepathic message to him.
"Agree?" Zhang Xuan's lips twitched. "You want me to slap myself?"
"That's not it. You should first head to the Zhang clan and find a suitable opportunity to reveal your identity so that the two clans can bury the hatchet! Otherwise, given the grudge the Luo Clan has toward the Zhang clan, the more you compensate them, the more likely they will clash in the future. Thus, you might as well settle it once and for all … "
Lozosy explained.
"This …" Zhang Xuan fell silent.
The other party was right.
The Luo Clan and the Zhang clan were irreconcilable enemies. If they were to compensate the Luo Clan out of goodwill, it would be no different from adding oil to the fire. Not only would it not alleviate the situation, it would only make it worse!
Under such circumstances, it was only a matter of time before a war broke out between the two clans … Rather than leaving behind a potential threat, it would be better to resolve the matter once and for all.
After all, he couldn't possibly disguise himself as Luo Tianya one moment and revert back to being Zhang Xuan the next.
If he were to do so, he would die from exhaustion.
"I guess that's the only thing I can do …"
Having thought this through, even though Zhang Xuan was filled with helplessness, he eventually nodded and said, "Alright, I'll agree to your request. We'll head to the Zhang clan right now!"
"Head to the Zhang clan!"
"Beat up Zhang Xuan!"
"Beat that son of a bitch to death …"
…
The elders immediately burst into excitement.
"…" Zhang Xuan.
The members of the Luo Clan were already prepared. Seeing that Zhang Xuan had agreed, there was no need for them to hesitate any longer. They quickly got to their feet and commanded the aerial saint beasts.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of saint beasts were floating in the air.
Knowing that the Luo Clan was intending to make a show of their might, Zhang Xuan decided to give up on the idea of setting up a Teleportation Formation. Even though he had grasped a certain level of spatial manipulation, it was impossible for him to teleport there.
Landing on the back of the flying Holy Beast, Zhang Xuan looked at Lozosy, who was laughing so hard that she almost couldn't breathe.
It's not easy for me!
Who did he offend …
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I'd better comprehend it as soon as possible and figure out how to break through to Great Sage!"
Even though Zhang Xuan was frustrated, he knew that since he had already made up his mind, there was no point in thinking too much about it. Thus, he closed his eyes and recalled the insights and experiences that he had read in order to find a way to make a breakthrough to the Great Sage realm.
"Are you trying to break through to the Great Sage realm?"
After deliberating for two whole days, he felt that he had gained some insights. Just as he was about to push forward, Lozosy looked over from the side.
"That's right," Zhang Xuan nodded.
There was no need for him to hide anything from the young lady before him.
Had it been anyone else, he might have had to explain to them that he was able to advance so quickly. However, the young lady before him didn't need to.
Perhaps it was because she wasn't surprised by his speed, or perhaps it was due to some other reason, but she didn't seem to be shocked by his speed at all. Instead, she seemed to think that it was only natural for him to achieve a breakthrough.
"There's no need to rush into it. Saint realm is divided into Celestial Sainthood and Celestial Sainthood. It's not worth it to make a breakthrough recklessly, "Lozosy said.
"Celestial Sainthood?" Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.
When he had first reached Saint realm, it was the young lady before him who had led him to the Saint Ascension Platform to find Kong Shi, and he had successfully made a breakthrough using it. It was for this reason that the energy in his body was so powerful, making him unparalleled in his cultivation realm.
Could it be that … there was a Celestial Sainthood for Great Sages as well?
"There's no such thing as a Celestial Sainthood for Great Sages," Lozosy said, seemingly seeing through Zhang Xuan's doubts. "However, there's a difference in the prowess of Great Sage as well."
"This …"
Zhang Xuan had no idea what his girlfriend's identity was, but he was certain that she was far more knowledgeable than him in terms of cultivation. If not for her, he wouldn't have been able to become a Celestial Sainthood.
Since she had said so, it was likely that there was a difference between the two.
"Un. The first realm of Great Sage is known as the Introspective Convalescence realm. One's Spiritual Perception is able to enter one's cells and even affect one's metabolism."
Luo Ruoxin nodded grimly. "Normally, in order to achieve a breakthrough in one's Spiritual Perception, one's Spiritual Perception has to become stronger and more refined in order to achieve a breakthrough. While it's possible for one to become a Great Sage through such means, it's still the lowest tier of Great Sage! It's also known as the Low-tier Breakthrough Technique. "
If there was a Low-tier Breakthrough Technique, there would be a high-tier Breakthrough Technique.
"However, there is no exception to this. There is only one person on the Master Teacher Continent who has successfully created a high-tier cultivation method and succeeded in doing so!" Zhang Xuan shook his head.
Lozosy said.
"Are you referring to … Kong Shi?"
Zhang Xuan asked anxiously.
In the past several dozen millenniums, the most dazzling figure on the Master Teacher Continent had been Kong Shi. If there was really a person who could achieve such a feat, it would be him.
"Indeed, it's Kong Shi!"
Luo Ruoxin nodded in agreement. "When he was at Saint 9-dan pinnacle, he drew in the heavenly flames to temper his physical body. His Spiritual Perception was also tempered by the heavenly flames, making it far more resilient and resilient. Due to that, he became even more formidable after his breakthrough. Be it the capacity of his zhenqi or his cultivation, they far surpassed that of ordinary Great Sage cultivators. That's how he became the number one expert in history, an irreplaceable figure! "
"Heavenly flames?" Zhang Xuan's body stiffened.
He had seen Kong Shi's will previously, and the latter had said that if he wanted to resolve the Innate Fetal Poison, he would have to become a Nine Stars master teacher and draw in the heavenly flames.
Under normal circumstances, Seven Star master teachers were from Saint 2-dan to Saint 4-dan, and 5-dan half-8-star master teachers were from Saint 5-dan.
8-star master teachers were from Saint 6-dan to Saint 8-dan, and 9-dan half-9-star master teachers were from Saint 6-dan to Nine Stars!
Under special circumstances, it was possible to bestow the emblem of a Nine Stars master teacher to a Saint 9-dan pinnacle expert. However, in order to become a Nine Stars master teacher, one had to achieve a breakthrough to Great Sage!
Could it be that … what Kong Shi said about becoming a Nine Stars master teacher wasn't the emblem bestowed by the Mingshi Tang but his own strength to achieve a breakthrough to Great Sage. Furthermore, he had to use … a high-tier breakthrough technique?
"The Heavenly Flame Tribulation is the same as the lightning tribulation. It's a punishment that the heavens give to cultivators. Now that you've entered the Saint domain and gone through the Saint domain Ascension Tribulation, do you feel that your body and soul have improved significantly?
Lozosy asked.
Zhang Xuan didn't deny it.
Normally, cultivators would have to reach Saint 5-dan Leaving Aperture realm before they could tap into the lightning tribulation to temper their Primordial Spirit. However, after undergoing the Saint Ascension Ordeal, Zhang Xuan's soul and physical body had improved significantly, making him far stronger than ordinary cultivators.
If the heavenly flames were the same as well, it would indeed be able to strengthen his Spiritual Perception and raise his fighting prowess.
"I have read many books, but I have never heard of high-tier and low-tier breakthroughs to Great Sage … If Kong Shi is the only one who has achieved it, Ruoxin … how did you know about it?"
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Zhang Xuan turned to Luo Ruoxin and asked, "What is your relationship with Kong Shi?"
