Breaking Through Two Realms in One Day, Tian Buyi and Su Ru Are Shocked!
"Bastard!"
"Yesterday, I thought highly of this kid. Who would've thought that after just one day, this fool would turn out like this?"
At that moment, in the bamboo grove, Tian Buyi's face was livid. Beside him, Su Ru held a little girl in her arms as she watched Bai Ye practicing his swordsmanship in the forest.
Yesterday, Tian Buyi had been deeply shocked when he saw Bai Ye's incredible comprehension.
If Bai Ye could be properly nurtured, he would undoubtedly become the Qingyun Sect's strongest figure since Grandmaster Qingye a thousand years ago. That was why Tian Buyi had come again today to inspect Bai Ye's cultivation.
Yet the moment he arrived, he saw Bai Ye drunk out of his mind—and Du Dashu had been drunk under the table as well.
"Disgraceful disciple, utterly disgraceful!"
Watching Bai Ye continue to gulp down wine and drunkenly flail about, Tian Buyi's anger surged.
Today, he had to teach this disgraceful disciple a proper lesson.
With such talent and comprehension, he was actually wasting his cultivation like this.
Su Ru's lovely expression changed slightly as well. She knew perfectly well how gifted Bai Ye was. If he continued wasting himself like this, it would be an absolute tragedy.
It seemed that this time, she would not stop Tian Buyi either. Bai Ye had to be taught a lesson so that he would remember it.
Meanwhile, Bai Ye had no idea that his master was already on the verge of exploding in rage.
Bai Ye continued gulping down Dragon-Tiger Wine. The longsword in his right hand swung once again, and the qi of heaven and earth gathered around him.
"Hahahaha!"
"Riding the wind with my sword, I come to purge demons from the world. With wine, I roam carefree; without wine, I still stand at the peak."
"One drink drains the rivers, another swallows the sun and moon. A thousandfold drunkenness cannot topple me—I alone am the Drunken Sword Immortal."
Bai Ye swayed as he wielded his sword, and the spiritual qi of heaven and earth grew violent.
Wind!
Wind!
Wind!
A fierce gale swept through heaven and earth, making the sea of bamboo sway. Bai Ye's sword dance seemed to merge with the world itself.
In Tian Buyi and Su Ru's eyes, Bai Ye now seemed like a wine immortal descending into the world.
Every stroke of his sword seemed utterly unstructured, yet each contained the momentum of heaven and earth.
One had to know that the momentum of heaven and earth was extraordinarily profound.
It was a form of comprehension toward the Dao. Only those whose strength had reached an extremely lofty level could enter such a state.
It was not a realm of cultivation, but more like an understanding of one's realm—a unity of man and heaven.
Even for someone with Tian Buyi's cultivation, entering such a state was exceedingly rare. Yet this disciple he had only accepted a few days ago had already entered that domain.
Unimaginable!
Simply unimaginable!
This lazy disciple actually possessed such terrifying talent.
Such talent likely far surpassed even Grandmaster Qingye's in his youth.
"Buyi!"
"Did you notice? This child has already successfully cultivated the first level of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao. He has guided the spiritual qi of heaven and earth through all thirty-six circulations of his body."
Shock appeared on Su Ru's lovely face as well.
Just yesterday, she had said that Bai Ye would not need long to reach the realm of thirty-six circulations. Yet after merely one day, he had already reached it.
This meant that Bai Ye not only possessed unparalleled talent, but also extraordinary comprehension.
Otherwise, how could he have entered the Taiji Xuanqing Dao and cultivated it to the first level in only two days?
And he had accomplished all this without anyone to guide him!
This child seemed a little too terrifying!
A genius?!
Genius was no longer enough to describe this child's talent.
Reaching the first level of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao in two days and even invoking the momentum of heaven and earth—he was a genius among geniuses.
Tian Buyi's gaze flickered.
His eyes settled on Bai Ye.
At that moment, Bai Ye seemed to have become one with heaven and earth. His sword moved with his heart, and every swing carried the grand momentum of the world.
The spiritual qi of heaven and earth gathered around him, moving with his figure. His unstructured swordsmanship seemed naturally perfected, unstoppable.
Every sword dance was an attack that could be called perfect!
"I have never believed in so-called geniuses, because I myself was not a genius, yet I still reached my current realm."
Tian Buyi looked at Bai Ye, light flickering in his eyes. After a moment, he sighed again. "But today, I have no choice but to admit it. This child is a true genius."
"Without anyone teaching him, he reached the first level of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao within two days and even invoked the momentum of heaven and earth. His future is limitless."
"I have no way to teach him."
Tian Buyi had never believed in the idea of geniuses, because he had reached heights that geniuses could reach despite possessing only half their talent.
But Bai Ye had broadened his horizons today.
It was not that geniuses did not exist. It was simply that none of the so-called geniuses he had seen before truly counted as geniuses.
"This child seems to have his own method of cultivation. Ordinary cultivation methods are already of no use to him."
"You needn't belittle yourself. I think this child is quite remarkable. You only need to guide him in the future."
Su Ru smiled faintly as she held her daughter, whose wide eyes were fixed intently on Bai Ye. "My daughter, it seems you have a fine senior brother!"
At her words, the little girl continued staring with wide eyes, confusion written across her face as she babbled.
"Yiya, yiya!"
"It seems you think so too."
Su Ru smiled as she looked at her little daughter.
"Let this child cultivate on his own from now on. When you have the time, teach him the remaining six levels of the Yuqing Realm portion of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao."
"With his talent, he should not need long to complete the second and third levels of the Yuqing Realm."
After saying that, Tian Buyi took one more deep look at Bai Ye, who was still dancing with his sword as if utterly entranced, then turned and left.
Hearing Tian Buyi's words, Su Ru smiled faintly.
She knew that her Dao Companion had accepted this genius disciple and acknowledged his unique method of cultivation.
He had chosen to let go. Geniuses had their own ways of cultivating.
Soon after, Su Ru left with her little daughter as well. Yet the little girl continued to stare at Bai Ye and babble, as though she did not want to leave.
Bai Ye was completely unaware of their departure.
At that moment, he still seemed tireless, continuously wielding his sword. With every move, the power within his body rapidly grew stronger.
No one knew how much time passed.
Only then did Bai Ye stop. The spiritual qi around him circulated unceasingly, and powerful energy filled every limb and bone.
Boom!
A roar sounded in his mind.
Bai Ye suddenly opened his eyes. His drunkenness had vanished, and a trace of delight appeared in his gaze.
"The Taiji Xuanqing Dao, second level!"
He had not expected the breakthrough to be so easy!
In just one day, he had broken through consecutively and reached the second level of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao.
Such talent was absolutely terrifying!
"Genius!"
"I really am a genius!"
Bai Ye was overjoyed.
In only a few days, he had broken through to the second level of the Taiji Xuanqing Dao. If that did not make him a genius, then what did?
Looking across the entire Qingyun Sect, perhaps only Qingyun Patriarch, who had turned the tide and revitalized the Qingyun Sect, could compare to him.
With talent like this, what else could he be but a genius?
With this kind of talent, wouldn't slacking off in the future be effortless?
In the entire Qingyun Sect, who could surpass him at the same age or in the same realm?
No one!
Absolutely no one!
With that thought, Bai Ye began cultivating diligently once more.
His hard work now was so that he could slack off without restraint in the future.
The Taiji Xuanqing Dao began circulating again. Coupled with Dragon-Tiger Wine and the terrifying power of the Drunken God Body, Bai Ye entered cultivation once more.
