Let You Break Through to Purple Blood

"Miss Lin."

Yi Yun smiled; he knew Lin Xin Tong would come.

Yi Yun's first encounter with Lin Xin Tong took place beneath this waterfall.

Without a word, Lin Xin Tong made her move, a gleaming Soft Sword stabbing towards Yi Yun like a silver snake!

Lin Xin Tong's moves contain an indescribable Mysterious Charm, resembling a magnificent dance.

Yi Yun's eyes gleamed, his legs propelled his body forward, and with a flick of his shoulders, his body created a series of afterimages— his Movement Technique Subtle Movement!

Yi Yun narrowly avoided Lin Xin Tong's sword strike. Although Yi Yun's dodge seemed dangerous, every movement was under his control and perfectly timed!

"You're becoming more and more proficient in the Subtle Movement Technique."

Lin Xin Tong sheathed her sword and praised Yi Yun, but then she changed the subject and said, "You are only at Subtle Movement minor level of mastery now, using your opponent's momentum to dodge attacks. There is still a long way to go before you reach the Subtle Movement level of mastery."

What is meant by "Subtle Movement and achieving great success"?

Yi Yun humbly sought advice.

Lin Xin Tong stepped down from the rock, gently smoothing her long hair from her forehead, and said, "To achieve mastery of the Subtle Movement realm, one must experience it for oneself. What others tell you is ultimately not your own, and may even limit your understanding... Come with me, I'll take you somewhere."

"Oh?" Yi Yun's heart stirred, and he nodded. He was about to follow Lin Xin Tong when he saw Lin Xin Tong extend her hand.

That hand, as white as jade and as delicate as cream, was stretched out in front of Yi Yun.

"Give me your hand," Lin Xin Tong said naturally.

"Huh?" Yi Yun was stunned for a moment. He stared at Lin Xin Tong's unbelievably beautiful hand, and was momentarily speechless. Holding this hand... was that really appropriate?

Yi Yun felt a little expectant, but also a little guilty, because Lin Xin Tong looked so pure and innocent that one couldn't bear to defile her.

But considering they've already high-fived, holding hands again wouldn't be a big deal, would it?

Yi Yun took a light breath and gently grasped the beautiful hand. The slender fingers were like white scallions, and the soft touch was beyond description; it was truly as soft as holding a clear spring.

"Her skin... is so cool..."

Every time Yi Yun had skin-to-skin contact with Lin Xin Tong, he had this feeling: Lin Xin Tong was truly like flesh and blood made of water. She gave people the feeling of a misty drizzle in the mountains, carrying a fresh and ethereal air.

"They're gone."

As Lin Xin Tong spoke, her body floated into the air. A gentle night breeze blew, and her long dress billowed, making her look like Chang'e ascending to the Moon Palace.

Behind Lin Xin Tong, Yi Yun felt a pulling force, and then his body felt light, and he actually flew up!

The wind whistled past his ears as Yi Yun soared into the sky. The waterfall beneath his feet receded rapidly into the distance, while the starry sky above drew ever closer, leaving Yi Yun stunned.

Take off!

To fly in the sky using only one's physical body.

Yi Yun looked down. He saw mountains and rivers standing tall in the darkness. The mountains and rivers that usually made people sigh and find difficult to cross now seemed like insignificant ripples, quickly passing beneath his feet. This feeling... was too wonderful!

The night was boundless, the starry sky was brilliant, and under the full moon that was as bright as a silver plate on the horizon, Lin Xin Tong, dressed in white, pulled Yi Yun, who was dressed in hemp clothing, slowly flew past the bright moon and into the distance, leaving behind a dreamlike figure.

This flight with Lin Xin Tong was a truly awe-inspiring experience for Yi Yun, as it was the first time in her life she had ever flown using her own body.

To fly through the air is a human dream, but martial arts can make it a reality.

Yi Yun and Lin Xin Tong flew for an hour.

Yi Yun felt they had flown at least eight or nine hundred miles, and then Lin Xin Tong began to descend with Yi Yun.

They landed in a canyon, a deep and cold place where a constant chilling wind blew in, making their hair stand on end.

Lin Xin Tong released Yi Yun's hand and said, "We've arrived."

As the delicate hand slipped from his grasp, the feeling of its soft, boneless touch vanished, leaving Yi Yun with a lingering sense of longing. However, he was quickly drawn to the vast, deep canyon before him.

"This is..."

Yi Yun's eyelids twitched slightly. He could faintly hear the low growls of wild beasts coming from the canyon, as if some terrifying being was lurking there.

Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here was extremely rich, yet it gave Yi Yun a very uncomfortable feeling, as if it were somewhat eerie and sinister.

Lin Xin Tong said, "This is the Barren Human Valley, a large canyon in Yunhuang. This canyon stretches for nearly ten thousand miles, and its northernmost end connects to the Desolate Ruins!"

The Desolate Ruins that Lin Xin Tong mentioned are the northern border of Yunhuang. However, saying it is a border does not mean that Yunhuang ends here. On the contrary, the Desolate Ruins are larger and more expansive than Yunhuang. However, various powerful ancient beasts lurk inside, which is completely beyond the control of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom. Usually, the Desolate Ruins are rarely visited by people, and even the Human Race Hegemon do not dare to enter it rashly.

Lin Xin Tong said, "There are ferocious beasts roaming the edge of the Barren Human Valley. You could feel the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, right? Humans would feel uncomfortable if they were immersed in it. This Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is called 'Savage Power,' and it's what wild beasts and ferocious beasts love most."

"The Barren Human Valley... the lurking place of ferocious beasts!"

Yi Yun raised an eyebrow slightly; he hadn't expected Lin Xin Tong to bring him to a place like this!

Within the Yunhuang lie wastelands and Spiritual Ground. The wastelands are filled with the Savage Power, making them a gathering place for wild beasts.

Spiritual Ground are filled with spiritual energy, and humans prefer Spiritual Ground.

Spiritual Ground and wastelands are interspersed, forming the vast and boundless Yunhuang.

This is the first time Yi Yun has set foot in the territory of the wild beasts. In the past, even when riding the Unicorn Giant Rhinoceros to the Tao Clan, the Brocade Dragon Guard tried to avoid the wilderness and instead chose to travel through neutral areas that were neither wilderness nor Spiritual Ground.

The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi... the Savage Power...

Yi Yun murmured to himself, connecting his spiritual power to the Purple Crystal in his heart. With Yi Yun heartbeat, the Purple Crystal trembled slightly, and a small vortex appeared on Purple Crystal surface. The Savage Power flowing into Yi Yun's body was absorbed by the vortex and slowly transformed into pure energy.

When this energy entered Yi Yun's body again, the slight discomfort immediately disappeared.

In this way, Yi Yun felt that the difference between the wasteland and the Spiritual Ground was not too great.

"Purple Crystal, truly a treasure..."

Yi Yun sighed inwardly, gaining a deeper understanding of Purple Crystal. Purple Crystal's control over energy had reached its pinnacle; it was a divine artifact of energy, and it seemed that no energy in this world could escape Purple Crystal control.

"Huh, you..."

The moment the Savage Power within Yi Yun was absorbed and transformed by the Purple Crystal, Lin Xin Tong suddenly felt a stirring in her heart and glanced at Yi Yun with surprise.

"What's wrong?" Yi Yun touched his face, somewhat surprised. Lin Xin Tong's senses were truly sharp. The moment he absorbed the Savage Power, his temperament changed slightly, and Lin Xin Tong noticed.

Lin Xin Tong didn't find anything on Yi Yun, as if what she had just felt was just an illusion. She shook her head strangely and said, "It's nothing... I'll probably be going back to my Lineage in a few days."

"Oh?" Yi Yun was slightly taken aback. He was genuinely reluctant to part ways with Lin Xin Tong.

Having a beautiful woman by his side is always a pleasant thing, not to mention that Lin Xin Tong can bring him a rapid improvement in strength.

"Didn't you say before that you were waiting for your master?"

"I can't wait any longer." Lin Xin Tong. "There are some Lineage matters that require me to return. Moreover, my master is going out this time for a secret realm. The level of the secret realm is beyond my master's imagination. My master has already sent me a message saying that this exploration of the secret realm may take more than a year, or even longer."

Upon hearing Lin Xin Tong's words, Yi Yun was stunned for a moment. Exploring a secret realm would take more than a year...

Lin Xin Tong noticed Yi Yun's surprise and said, "A year of exploration isn't long. Some secret realms are independent worlds, vast and boundless, even larger than Yunhuang! Traveling through such secret realms would take a very long time, and... some secret realms are inscribed with profound formations. These formations might even be the work of sages or Great Emperor. Even if time has passed and the formations are incomplete, breaking them would still take an unknown amount of time."

"Because Master and Marquis Wen Yun been in the secret realm for too long this time, most of the Brocade Dragon Guard may have to withdraw from Yunhuang, leaving only a few to provide support. You should also be returning to the Central Plains of the Divine Kingdom with the Brocade Dragon Guard. At that time, you will enter the heart of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom."

After hearing Lin Xin Tong's words, Yi Yun took a deep breath. The Tai'a Divine Kingdom... the Central Plains...

He was finally about to leave Yunhuang and step into this vast world!

"Miss Lin, I'm going to the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, and you're returning to your Lineage. Will we ever have a chance to meet again?"

"We will meet," Lin Xin Tong smiled gently. "I will be leaving soon. In the next few days, I will try my best to guide you and help you advance your strength to the next level, so that your cultivation can directly break through to the Purple Blood Realm!"

"Purple blood!?"

Yi Yun's eyes lit up. The Purple Blood Realm was hailed as the starting point for martial arts, but in the Great Wilderness, this realm was something that many martial artists dreamed of. Achieving the Purple Blood Realm meant having the foundation to establish oneself in the Great Wilderness and could become the local tyrant of a small tribe.

A single Purple Blood Realm has killed countless people; it's one in ten thousand!

For Yi Yun to enter the Central Plains and establish a homeland on his fiefdom, he naturally needs considerable strength.

Yi Yun had long wanted to break through to the Purple Blood Realm!

This time, after consuming the Jade Spirit Pill, its Medicinal Power were still not fully digested in Yi Yun's body. Yi Yun felt that he was only half a step away from the Purple Blood Realm.

"Today, I brought you to the Barren Human Valley so that you could fight against ferocious beasts and experience true combat!" Lin Xin Tong said, looking at the deep canyon before her.

Upon hearing Lin Xin Tong's words, a glint of excitement flashed in Yi Yun's eyes. Fighting ferocious beasts!? What would that be like?

Thinking about all this, Yi Yun felt a surge of excitement. (To be continued~^~)
