Everyone Breaks Through One After Another!

Great Bamboo Peak.

Disciple's Quarters.

Wu Dayi sat cross-legged on his bed, his eyes tightly shut.

His room was simply furnished, with only a bed, a table, and walls covered in calligraphy and paintings.

He was Tian Buyi's second disciple.

By all rights.

His cultivation should have been second only to the senior disciple, Song Daren.

But reality was cruel.

The fourth disciple, He Dazhi, was naturally gifted and sharp-witted. His cultivation had long since broken through the fourth layer of Yuqing, leaving his second senior brother far behind.

Although the disciples had deep brotherly affection and shouldn't be jealous.

But every time he saw the fourth disciple summon his Magic Treasure, the Jiangshan Brush, and the proud look on his face...

Wu Dayi felt a heavy stone lodged in his heart.

Frustrated.

Suffocated.

This feeling of being surpassed by a junior disciple was like being slapped in the face in public, his cheeks burning.

"Hoo~"

Wu Dayi opened his palm.

A round and plump Foundation Replenishing Pill lay quietly in his palm.

The Pill was pure white throughout, emitting a faint luminescence, as if breathing with life.

The rich medicinal fragrance, just by smelling it, made the stagnant spiritual energy within him begin to stir.

"Five years of cultivation..."

Wu Dayi's hand trembled slightly.

This wasn't just a Pill.

It was his dignity.

It was the pride of his position as the second senior brother.

"I must break through!"

Wu Dayi gritted his teeth, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

He suddenly threw his head back and swallowed the Foundation Replenishing Pill.

BOOM!

The Pill dissolved the moment it entered his mouth.

Instantly, it transformed into a vast torrent of heat that surged down his throat.

This torrent of heat was terrifyingly pure.

It was like a rushing river, surging but not harmful.

The heat quickly flowed to his limbs and bones, scouring his long-dry meridians.

Pain.

But more than that, it was exhilarating.

The sensation of his meridians expanding and his spiritual energy filling them made Wu Dayi want to let out a long roar.

He suppressed the trembling in his body, formed hand seals, and circulated the Tai Chi Xuan Qing Dao.

He guided this vast spiritual energy towards the bottleneck that had plagued him for so long.

From the third to the fourth layer of Yuqing.

It was a barrier.

Crossing it meant entering the Object Moving Realm.

Crossing it meant owning his own Magic Treasure and having boundless opportunities thereafter.

Failing to cross it...

Meant remaining merely a martial artist capable of some physical strengthening.

"Break for me!"

Wu Dayi roared inwardly.

Under his guidance, the pure spiritual energy transformed into a sharp sword, fiercely striking the bottleneck.

Crack.

The sound of something shattering echoed in Wu Dayi's mind.

The adjacent room.

Zheng Dali's situation was much the same.

He was broad and stout, appearing simple and honest, but in reality, he had his own thoughts.

As the third child, his position was also awkward.

With the eldest and second eldest above him, and that genius, the fourth child, below him, he was stuck in the middle, neither here nor there.

Normally, his favorite thing to do was eat.

It seemed only delicious food could fill the emptiness in his heart.

But now.

Looking at the Foundation Replenishing Pill in his hand.

Zheng Dali felt, for the first time.

That all the delicacies in the world could not compare to this small pill.

"Seventh Brother is truly a good person."

Zheng Dali swallowed, murmuring to himself.

He didn't have as many complex thoughts as Wu Dayi.

His idea was simple.

Eat it, become stronger.

Then.

He could help his Master and Mistress share their burdens.

He wouldn't be mocked by disciples from other peaks.

Gulp.

Zheng Dali tilted his head back and swallowed the pill in one go.

The next second.

His large face instantly turned the color of pig liver.

So hot!

It was like swallowing a ball of fire.

Or like stuffing a whole roasted suckling pig into his stomach, making him feel stuffed.

The immense medicinal power surged wildly through his broad meridians.

"Ouch!"

Zheng Dali cried out and quickly crossed his legs, clumsily circulating his Cultivation Method.

Sweat poured from his forehead like rain.

It instantly soaked his clothes.

But he dared not stop.

He could feel the spiritual energy within him, dormant for so long, now surging madly.

That feeling of power captivated him.

Great Bamboo Peak

"Boom!"

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from a side room ahead.

That was Wu Dayi's room.

Following that.

"Boom!"

Another aura shot up into the sky.

That was Zheng Dali's room.

The two auras intertwined, stirring the surrounding spiritual energy and forming a small spiritual energy vortex.

"They succeeded."

A chubby figure appeared in the courtyard like a ghost.

It was Tian Buyi.

He stood in the courtyard, sensing the breakthrough auras from the two, and his tense, chubby face finally relaxed.

The frown that was always present was now completely gone.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Tian Buyi said "good" three times in a row, his voice trembling with unconcealed excitement.

How many years had it been?

Great Bamboo Peak finally had someone break through again.

And it was two at once!

The second and third disciples had been stuck at Yuqing third layer for many years, which had always been his biggest worry.

Now that they had broken through, they were masters of the Object Moving Realm.

Great Bamboo Peak's strength had instantly increased by a large margin.

Tian Buyi excitedly rubbed his hands together and paced back and forth.

He wanted to laugh, but felt it would undermine his dignity, so he could only press his lips together desperately, the fat on his face jiggling.

Just then.

With a creak.

Wu Dayi's door opened.

He rushed out with a look of ecstatic joy, his clothes disheveled, his hair wet with sweat and stuck to his forehead.

But he didn't care at all.

As soon as he stepped out, he saw Tian Buyi in the courtyard.

Thump!

Wu Dayi knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Tian Buyi.

"Master!"

"Disciple... Disciple has broken through!"

His voice was choked with emotion, bordering on tears.

Years of suppression were finally released at this moment.

Immediately after.

The door next to him was also burst open.

"Master!"

"I broke through too!"

"I feel like I'm full of energy right now, I could eat a whole cow!"

Zheng Dali rolled out like a meatball.

He also didn't say a word, kneeling on the ground and starting to kowtow.

"What are you crying about!"

"Useless things!"

"It's just breaking through to the Object Moving Realm, is it that big a deal?"

"Are the disciples of my Great Bamboo Peak so short-sighted?"

Looking at these two disciples who usually gave him so much grief.

Tian Buyi's eyes felt a little warm.

He put his hands behind his back, tilted his chin up, and tried hard to maintain a nonchalant demeanor.

He was scolding them.

But anyone could hear the joy in his tone.

"Hehe."

Wu Dayi and Zheng Dali exchanged a look and got up from the ground with silly smiles.

They knew their Master was overjoyed.

Just then.

There was another loud noise.

This commotion was even greater than when Wu Dayi and Zheng Dali broke through earlier.

Even the ground trembled slightly.

Everyone's gaze was instantly drawn over.

It was the room of the eldest disciple, Song Daren.

"This is..."

Tian Buyi's pupils contracted sharply.

Song Daren already had a cultivation of Yuqing fifth layer.

If I broke through again...

That would be Yuqing Layer Six!

Just one step away from the legendary Yuqing Layer Seven!

If Great Bamboo Peak could have one more Layer Seven expert.

Then, in the upcoming Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament, who would dare look down on them!

Tian Buyi could no longer keep up the pretense.

His plump body, agile as a monkey's at that moment, shot to Song Daren's door.

He pressed his ear to the door, eavesdropping on the sounds within with no regard for his dignity.

"Ugh~"

Ye Xuan, having just arrived, saw this comical scene.

This Master.

His persona had completely collapsed.
