"Big lion, courtesy demands reciprocity. Since you've been so generous, I'll give you a few Third-grade Pills as well."

"We'll be leaving now. No need to see us off."

Having successfully obtained the treasure, Ye Tian took out several Primal Yang Pills and tossed them to the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King. Then he leaped onto the White Jade Kirin's back and called Yun Yun to leave the area.

"Whoosh..."

The White Jade Kirin immediately stepped through the air with elegant strides, fleeing into the distance and vanishing in the blink of an eye.

"Whoosh..."

Seeing this, Yun Yun immediately flew after Ye Tian. However, the White Jade Kirin's speed through the air was simply too fast. One great stride covered several miles, leaving only streaks of afterimages behind as it quickly left her far behind.

"Why did this little fellow make that Magic Beast fly so fast? Couldn't he wait for me?"

"Could that be a Tier 7 Magic Beast? But judging from the aura it released earlier, it seemed to be only at the Dou Emperor level. How could it possibly have the ability to walk through the air? How strange."

Watching Ye Tian and the white Magic Beast disappear after only a few moments, Yun Yun was utterly stunned. She could only fly with all her strength and chase after them.

Thinking back to what had just happened, Yun Yun found it incredibly amusing. She had originally planned to fight that big lion, yet Ye Tian had resolved everything so effortlessly.

"Just who is this human youth? Why does such a powerful Magic Beast follow him? And how did he know that I needed the Companion Purple Crystal Source?"

"Sigh! I can't afford to provoke him. I just hope this little ancestor doesn't come back next time."

After Ye Tian and the white Magic Beast vanished, the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King's mind was filled with question marks. Thinking of that mass of Companion Purple Crystal Source, it felt an unbearable ache in its heart. It helplessly shook its head and returned to its cave.

"Xiao Bai, stop over there. Wait for that woman."

On the other side, after the White Jade Kirin had flown several hundred miles, Ye Tian looked back and saw that Yun Yun had yet to catch up. He instructed Xiao Bai to land atop a tall mountain and wait for her.

"Yes, Master."

With several great strides, the White Jade Kirin arrived at the mountaintop.

"Xiao Bai, why did you suddenly come out?"

Ye Tian lightly patted the White Jade Kirin's back before jumping to the ground.

"At the time, I sensed that Master was in mortal danger, so I asked the lady to send me out."

As Ye Tian's contracted Spirit Beast, protecting his safety was the White Jade Kirin's responsibility.

"Alright. This is a Fire Attribute Energy Crystal."

"That woman is here. Go back into the tower first and refine it."

Ye Tian took out a Purple Crystal Stone and rewarded it to the White Jade Kirin. Then he activated the Chaos Tower Array and took it back inside.

"Whoosh..."

"Ye Tian, where is your Magic Beast? Where did it go?"

A moment later, Yun Yun arrived beside Ye Tian. When she did not see that jade-white Magic Beast, her face was full of confusion.

"My Master took it away, but please keep this secret. Don't casually tell others about Xiao Bai."

Ye Tian told a small lie, too lazy to explain the White Jade Kirin's situation to Yun Yun.

"Don't worry. I'm not someone who gossips. I absolutely won't tell a third person about what happened today."

Yun Yun nodded solemnly and stopped probing into the little fellow's secrets. Still, she would need to interact with him more deeply in the future and slowly come to understand him.

"Wait a moment. Let me take this thing out first."

At that moment, Ye Tian took out the spherical Companion Purple Crystal Source given by the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and used a Purple Crystal Stone to cut a small hole in its surface.

"Buzz..."

In the next instant, a tiny opening appeared, releasing dense energy.

"Hiss, hiss..."

Immediately afterward, Ye Tian took out a Jade Bottle and filled it with the Companion Purple Crystal Source liquid.

Yun Yun merely watched quietly from the side without disturbing Ye Tian.

"Yun Yun, here are some Companion Purple Crystal Source and Purple Crystal Stones. Keep them."

"This Companion Purple Crystal Source is a fine treasure. You can use it directly for cultivation and raise your strength."

After working for a while, Ye Tian had filled a total of ten bottles with Companion Purple Crystal Source liquid. He then gave Yun Yun some of both treasures.

"Thank you."

Yun Yun thanked Ye Tian and hurriedly stored the two treasures in her Ring of Holding. She had heard Gu He mention that the Companion Purple Crystal Source was an Energy Liquid, a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure even better than Purple Crystal Stones.

"Alright, that's it for now. I'm leaving."

After putting away the treasures, Ye Tian prepared to leave the Monster Mountain Range.

"Where are you going next? Shall I take you there?"

Seeing Ye Tian preparing to leave, Yun Yun's eyes were filled with tenderness and reluctance.

"I plan to return to Qingshan Town and take a look."

"I'm already a Dou Ling now, and I can fly quickly. There's no need for you to take me."

"Whoosh..."

Ye Tian waved to Yun Yun and then used his Flying Dou Technique.

"Wait."

"Thank you for helping me... Mmph..."

In that split second, Yun Yun flew over, threw herself into Ye Tian's arms, hugged him, and directly kissed him.

At that moment, Yun Yun thought of those intimate days with him in the cave, days she would never forget for the rest of her life.

"Uh...! What are you doing?"

Seeing this woman attack so fiercely, Ye Tian had not been mentally prepared at all. I only helped treat your injuries, and this is how you repay me?

"Don't talk..."

Yun Yun said with flushed cheeks, then continued kissing him. We've already done that much. How could I let you go so easily? I need to leave my mark first.

Provoked so shamelessly by Yun Yun, how could Ye Tian, a hot-blooded young man, endure it?

Yun Yun had already felt favorably toward this mysterious youth. After their intimate contact in the cave, she had developed feelings for him. At this moment, she was even more proactive than Ye Tian, her emotions flooding out like a burst dam, impossible to stop.

"My good disciple, you captured this woman's heart so quickly? Not bad!"

"But this is the Monster Mountain Range. Aren't you afraid of those Magic Beasts?"

Just as Ye Tian was about to make a move with Yun Yun, Jin Yan's voice rang out in his mind.

"Uh...! Master, you haven't been watching the whole time, have you?"

Hearing Jin Yan's teasing voice, Ye Tian immediately snapped awake. At this moment, he felt that his Master was a little like a female hooligan.

"My good disciple, I know exactly how many hairs you have on your body. Would I need to peek?" Jin Yan chuckled.

"Alright, Master. As you please."

Ye Tian had already witnessed his Master's methods. Before her, he was completely transparent.

"Ye Tian, you... what's wrong?"

At that moment, Yun Yun saw Ye Tian suddenly fall into a daze. She immediately suppressed the fire in her heart and called out to wake the little fellow.

"Nothing! Sorry, I offended you just now."

Ye Tian hurriedly replied. If not for his Master's reminder, he would probably have already gone to war with this woman.

"Well... I only did that to thank you, so... don't overthink it."

Yun Yun calmed herself down and felt that she had acted somewhat impulsively just now. She had actually taken the initiative to do such a thing to this young man, but the feeling had truly been too thrilling.

"You're the one overthinking it..." Ye Tian teased.

"Stop talking...!"

Yun Yun shot him a charming glare and quickly reached out to cover Ye Tian's mouth.

"I should go now. Take care. Goodbye."

Ye Tian gently pulled Yun Yun's hand away and prepared to leave the Monster Mountain Range.

"I'll take you."

"Whoosh..."

Without giving him a chance to refuse, Yun Yun picked Ye Tian up, summoned her blue Dou Qi Wings, and shot into the sky toward Qingshan Town.

"Why are you using this move again?"

Ye Tian felt utterly helpless. The impulse he had just suppressed was stirred up again by this woman.

"Be good! Don't move! And don't let your thoughts wander!"

Yun Yun smiled sweetly and held him tightly. Breathing in the mysterious aura around him, she felt incomparably comfortable.

Through their intimate contact over the past few days, Yun Yun had discovered that Ye Tian occasionally emitted a mystical charm that made her feel extremely comfortable. She always felt that staying beside the little fellow for a long time would benefit her cultivation.

This discovery delighted Yun Yun greatly. At the same time, she understood why those Magic Beasts had crazily pursued him. They had regarded this little fellow as an unparalleled Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

"Can you do whatever you want just because you're strong?"

Wrapped in Yun Yun's magnificent bosom, Ye Tian felt as though it was killing him.

"That's right. When you're strong, you can do whatever you want."

Yun Yun chuckled, ignoring Ye Tian's resentful expression as she continued flying swiftly.

A Dou Emperor's speed was indeed terrifying. It did not take Yun Yun long to bring Ye Tian to a mountaintop on the outskirts of Qingshan Town.

"I'm returning to the sect first. I'll come find you again later."

Yun Yun reluctantly kissed Ye Tian goodbye before flying toward the Misty Cloud Sect.

"Goodbye!" Ye Tian waved, watching Yun Yun until she disappeared beyond the horizon.

"That woman has truly fallen for you."

At that moment, Jin Yan's voice sounded in Ye Tian's mind. She knew everything that had happened during Yun Yun's time with the little fellow these past few days. This little fellow's Romantic Luck was truly quite good.

"By the way, Master! Can the Spirit Beast contract method be used on humans?"

At that moment, Ye Tian thought of Yun Yun's troubles. If he could use a contract to control those assorted scoundrels around her, it would be a good solution.

"Of course it can! Who do you want to subdue?"

Jin Yan asked with a smile.

"There are a bunch of unsavory people around that woman. She's only a Puppet Sect Master now and has no real authority."

"Some time ago in Wutan City, several elders from her sect wanted to capture me. After she learned of it, she stayed by my side to protect me. When I get the chance to visit her sect in the future, I'll use this contract method to turn those scoundrels into her servants."

Ye Tian told his Master what he was thinking.

"No problem. It's a small matter."

"I'll teach you this contract spell. When the time comes, just knock those people unconscious and use this Supernatural Power to control them."

Jin Yan understood Ye Tian's intentions and told him to proceed boldly.

"Whoosh..."

In an instant, the Chaos Tower lit up with a ray of light that shot into Ye Tian's glabella.

"Master, I think this contract spell would sound better if it were called the Soul Locking Curse. What do you think?"

After receiving this contract spell Supernatural Power, Ye Tian felt that it was similar to the Soul Locking Curse Ye Chen had used in Lord of All Realms. Both were Supernatural Powers for controlling souls.

"You have a point. Soul Locking Curse does sound better. We'll call it the Soul Locking Curse from now on!"

Jin Yan nodded, agreeing with Ye Tian. She felt that the little fellow was quite clever.

Ye Tian then began to absorb the method for using the Soul Locking Curse. Using blood as the medium and one's own powerful soul force, one could forcibly leave a mark within another person's soul. The curse could also be removed, but if someone forcibly broke the Soul Locking Curse, the curse mark would self-destruct, severely injuring the soul or even causing immediate death.

"Buzz..."

After comprehending the Soul Locking Curse, Ye Tian's soul seemed to sense a barrier. He immediately felt that the opportunity for a breakthrough had arrived, so he began cultivating the Universe Soul Forging Art at once.

"Spirit light stirs, radiance illuminates the great expanse; intent rises beyond the nine heavens, feet tread upon the immortal cauldron. The universe lies within one's grasp, the heart itself is a treasure mountain. The divine soul undergoes nine refinements and does not fall into the Yellow Springs.

"The heart roams heaven and earth, guarding the universe. Cast away evil and sever delusion; straighten the heart and freeze the spirit. The soul turns nine times, and the core heart becomes steady. The heart of heaven is supreme; follow this path.

"A path lies beneath the blue heavens, and youth may be retained. Raise your eyes before you: jade towers and jeweled trees. Let the heart fill the spirit mountain and intent fill the immortal lake; the core heart may enter."

As Ye Tian silently recited the cultivation verses of the first three levels of the Universe Soul Severing Art, a Universe Eight Trigrams Diagram appeared within his Soul Sea, directly drawing him into it. His soul traveled through the void and wandered between heaven and earth.

"Whoosh..."

Seeing her good disciple cultivating his soul, Jin Yan quietly sent the White Jade Kirin out of the Chaos Tower to stand guard for him.

No one knew how much time had passed before a powerful soul aura erupted from Ye Tian's body. His soul ascended once more, and his cultivation of the Universe Soul Severing Art stepped into the third level.

"Xiao Bai, how long was I cultivating?"

After waking, Ye Tian saw the White Jade Kirin quietly guarding his side and knew that his Master had released it.

"Master, you have cultivated for three days." The White Jade Kirin nodded.

"Your Soul Strength has now reached the Dou Zong level, but your actual strength has yet to catch up. During the coming period, you must work hard to raise your cultivation."

"As your Soul Strength rises, your cultivation speed will also become faster and faster."

Sensing that Ye Tian's soul cultivation had broken through once again, Jin Yan nodded in satisfaction and reminded the little fellow to keep working hard.

"Master, I understand."

Ye Tian knew that his soul had improved so quickly because he possessed this Divine Technique devoted to cultivating the soul. Otherwise, his current Soul Strength would at most be around the Mortal Realm Mid-stage.

Ye Tian then sensed that his realm was indeed close to breaking through to the Four-Star Dou Spirit level. He sat down cross-legged again, circulated the Chaos Creation Art, and absorbed Heaven and Earth Energy for his own use.

As his strength increased, the amount of Heaven and Earth Energy Ye Tian required for each breakthrough also grew greater and greater.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

At that moment, the Heaven and Earth Energy within several miles gathered toward Ye Tian like a tide, forming a powerful Energy Vortex like gusts of violent wind.

"Whoosh..."

Half an hour later, Ye Tian successfully broke through to the Four-Star Dou Spirit level.

"Congratulations, Master." Seeing Ye Tian's successful breakthrough, the White Jade Kirin immediately congratulated him.

"Xiao Bai, thank you for standing guard for me."

Ye Tian stood up, took out a Fourth-order Magical Core, and tossed it to the White Jade Kirin. This fellow's cultivation was simple; it only needed energy. A Magical Core was also a fine Cultivation Resource for it.

"Protecting Master's safety is my responsibility."

After receiving a Fourth-order Magical Core, the White Jade Kirin was incomparably excited.

"Go back into the tower first. If you return to the village with me looking like this, you'll frighten the Villagers."

"Whoosh..."

Ye Tian wanted to keep the White Jade Kirin by his side at all times, but its body was simply too large and would frighten people. He could only take it back into the tower.

Ye Tian then set off toward Qinghe Village, intending to check whether Xiao Yan was still in Qingshan Town.

"Xiao Tian, you're back..."

When Ye Tian returned to Qinghe Village, he immediately sparked cheers from the Villagers.

"Hello, everyone!"

Seeing these simple, honest Villagers from his hometown again, Ye Tian was also very happy.

"Not long after you and Xiao Yi Xian left Qingshan Town, all the Mercenaries in the town were hunting you down. We were terrified back then."

"A year ago, a young man named Xiao Yan came here and told us that you had already become very powerful. Only then were we relieved..."

The Villagers then slaughtered chickens and sheep to welcome Ye Tian home. Seeing that the Little Fellow had grown stronger, everyone felt greatly comforted.

Ye Tian also refined some Foundation Establishment Pills and gave them to the children in the village, laying a foundation for their cultivation.

Meanwhile, after returning to the Misty Cloud Sect, Yun Yun gave the Purple Crystal Stone to Pill King Gu He to refine a Purple Splendor Pill for Na Lan Yan Ran.

"Yan Ran, hurry and take this pill. Let's see how effective it is."

Yun Yun then went to the Back Mountain and gave the pill to Na Lan Yan Ran, who was cultivating there.

"Thank you, Teacher."

Seeing that her Teacher had brought her another Precious Pill, Na Lan Yan Ran was delighted and threw herself into Yun Yun's arms, acting spoiled.

"Hurry and take the pill to increase your strength. You're already grown up, yet you still act like a child."

For some reason, Yun Yun felt a little uncomfortable when Na Lan Yan Ran threw herself into her arms, so she hurriedly pushed the Little Girl away.

"Okay!"

Na Lan Yan Ran swallowed the Purple Bi Pill in one gulp and began refining it. Before long, her strength directly broke through to the Eight-star Dou Master realm.

"Teacher, aren't I amazing?"

Feeling her strength break through again, Na Lan Yan Ran jumped up excitedly and showed off her achievement to her Teacher.

"Keep working hard."

Yun Yun said this blandly to Na Lan Yan Ran before leaving the Back Mountain and returning to her residence. Sitting by the window, she looked into the distance, missing someone.

"What's wrong with Teacher? She used to be so happy whenever I broke through. Why is she so indifferent now?"

Na Lan Yan Ran recalled the way her Teacher had looked at her just now. It seemed as though she felt disappointed that Na Lan Yan Ran had failed to live up to her expectations.

"No, I have to go take a look."

Thinking this, Na Lan Yan Ran felt that she had fallen out of favor, so she immediately ran toward where Yun Yun lived.

"Why aren't you cultivating properly? What are you doing here?"

Seeing that her disciple was slacking off again, Yun Yun was speechless.

"Teacher, I feel like you have something on your mind?"

Na Lan Yan Ran pouted and sat beside Yun Yun, acting spoiled.

"Hurry back and cultivate. Stop bothering me. There isn't much time left until the Three-Year Agreement. If you don't make the most of it, then if you lose, the one embarrassed will be yourself."

Seeing that Na Lan Yan Ran was slacking off again, Yun Yun directly flicked the Little Girl on the forehead.

"Ow!"

After being struck by her Teacher, Na Lan Yan Ran hurriedly covered her forehead and pretended that it hurt badly as she acted spoiled.

"I'm already an Eight-star Dou Master. No matter how powerful Xiao Yan is, there's no way he can catch up to me."

Thinking of her current strength, Na Lan Yan Ran immediately raised her head proudly, convinced that she would definitely defeat Xiao Yan in the Three-Year Agreement.

"Confidence is a good thing, but too much confidence becomes arrogance."

"Leave now. Stop disturbing your Teacher. I'm going into seclusion to cultivate."

Seeing her disciple's proud expression, Yun Yun shook her head helplessly and hurriedly told the Little Girl to go cultivate. After witnessing Ye Tian's talent as a Prodigy, she felt that her own disciple was merely ordinary.

Thinking of this, Yun Yun could not help recalling the happy times she had spent with that Prodigy. She wondered when she would be able to see him again.
