After driving back the invading enemies, Chen Siyu and Chen Ruixuan devoted themselves to cultivating the Chaos Spirit Rhinoceros Technique in the valley. Day and night, they immersed themselves in studying and comprehending the technique, growing increasingly proficient in controlling Chaos Qi.
Chen Siyu sat cross-legged beside the valley's Spirit Spring, her palms, soles, and crown facing the heavens, her expression focused. She tried to deeply merge the Chaos Qi within her body with her own spiritual power, allowing it to circulate more freely. As her cultivation deepened, she felt as though she had entered a vast ocean of chaos. Threads of Chaos Power gathered around her without end. Every strand that entered her body made her feel an unprecedented force surging within her.
Chen Ruixuan cultivated atop a massive boulder not far away. His eyes were tightly shut, his small lips slightly puckered, and his face wore a serious expression. After the previous battle, he understood the importance of strength and cultivated with exceptional diligence. He worked hard to guide Chaos Qi through his meridians. Although he still encountered obstacles along the way, he never gave up, trying again and again while adjusting the flow of his qi.
Day after day, Chen Siyu finally encountered an opportunity for a breakthrough. After countless rounds of tempering, the Chaos Qi and spiritual power within her suddenly produced a wondrous resonance. Like a spark, that resonance instantly ignited the power throughout her body. A layer of multicolored light shimmered around her, laced with wisps of chaotic qi that made her seem mysterious and powerful.
As Chen Siyu broke through, a mighty force blanketed the entire valley. The clouds in the sky, once white as snow, were instantly dyed in five colors, dazzling like a dream. Under the influence of this power, the flowers, grass, and trees throughout the valley grew wildly. Ordinary blades of grass became as thick as trees in the blink of an eye, while flowers bloomed in colors more vivid than ever, releasing waves of rich fragrance.
The water of the Spirit Spring also began to boil, splashing everywhere with a gurgle, gurgle. Streams of spiritual power surged from the spring and circled around Chen Siyu, as though paying tribute to the cultivator who had broken through. The mountains around the valley trembled faintly, seemingly awed by this powerful force.
Chen Ruixuan sensed the disturbance and hurriedly opened his eyes. Seeing the powerful aura surrounding Chen Siyu, he was both happy for his sister and filled with envy. "Big Sister is amazing! I need to break through soon too." Chen Ruixuan silently made up his mind.
However, the commotion caused by Chen Siyu's breakthrough was simply too great. It not only alarmed the entire valley but also drew the attention of several cultivators nearby. A group of cultivators had been trading spiritual items in a town not far away when they suddenly saw multicolored light flashing in the sky and sensed the powerful fluctuations of energy. Surprise appeared on all their faces.
"What is going on? Such powerful energy fluctuations... Could it be that some top-tier magic treasure has appeared, or that a powerful cultivator is breaking through?" a cultivator in a blue robe asked doubtfully.
"Whatever it is, we'll know once we go take a look. Maybe we'll get something out of it." Greed flashed in the eyes of the Fierce-Faced Cultivator.
Thus, the group of cultivators hurried toward the valley. At the same time, on the other side of the valley, an Ancient Remnant Beast sleeping in a cave was also awakened by the force. It slowly opened its enormous eyes, a fierce glint flashing within them. It roared toward the direction where Chen Siyu was in the valley, then began to approach with heavy steps.
Chen Siyu was immersed in the joy of her breakthrough and in controlling her newfound power, and for the moment, she had not noticed the danger closing in from outside. Although Chen Ruixuan saw the cultivators approaching from afar, he did not panic. He knew that his sister was at a critical moment and could not be disturbed. He clenched his fists and stood beside Chen Siyu, deciding to face the coming crisis alone.
"No matter who it is, don't even think about disturbing Big Sister's cultivation!" Chen Ruixuan's eyes were filled with determination. Though small, his figure radiated fearless courage. He quickly took out several small magic treasures he had prepared earlier from his storage pouch and waited for the enemies to arrive. A new challenge was about to unfold in this once-peaceful valley...
