"Xing Nu actually couldn't detect my prying eyes."

Chu Tian had been watching Xing Nu's reaction all along, deep in thought.

Xing Nu had been sent to follow him, so her talent was naturally exceptional. Now that she was an adult, her strength had long surpassed the Spirit Refining Realm, and her Spiritual Power had been condensed for years, giving birth to a Divine Soul.

Yet even so, Xing Nu had only sensed something faintly and could not detect the source of the scrutiny.

The Eye of the Heavenly Dao was even more wondrous than Chu Tian had imagined. Worthy indeed of being an unparalleled divine ability created by the Destiny Dao Venerable, a Great Accomplishment Innate Dao Body, through the insights of an entire lifetime.

With the Eye of the Heavenly Dao's enhancement, although he had yet to enter the Spirit Refining Realm, he could already project his Spiritual Power beyond his body. Its condensation had been amplified by more than tenfold; even ordinary people who had broken through to the Spirit Refining Realm likely could not compare to him.

Though he had not yet broken through to the Spirit Refining Realm, his Spiritual Power already surpassed it. Moreover, his physical body had yet to reach the limit of the Bone Forging Realm, leaving him enormous room for improvement.

Just then, a spirit insect shaped like a mosquito suddenly flew past the gauze window.

A silver needle as thin as a hair suddenly appeared in Chu Tian's hand. With a flick of his finger—

Buzz!

The spirit insect was directly nailed to the tree trunk by the silver needle. The needle had merely pierced its nearly transparent wing and had not harmed its life.

Buzz!

Another silver needle shot out, accurately pinning the spirit insect's other wing to the tree trunk.

"After Spiritual Power becomes stronger, control over strength also becomes more meticulous, and control over the physical body grows increasingly effortless. No wonder the Spirit Refining Realm is classified as the realm after the Bone Forging Realm," Chu Tian murmured.

He now possessed 1.7 million jin of strength. Yet under the Eye of the Heavenly Dao's tenfold enhancement to his Spiritual Power, he was comparable to someone in the Spirit Refining Realm, while his perception far surpassed them. The strength he could unleash was likely at least 3.5 million jin.

He cultivated through the night.

Chu Tian's comprehension had already been extraordinary. With the Comprehension Halo's enhancement, after one night, he had already mastered the Eye of the Heavenly Dao with effortless ease.

His Spiritual Power had also improved tremendously. When he opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashed within them, and his condensed gaze could already leave marks on the sturdy bluestone floor.

Chu Tian's physical strength had also increased by a hundred thousand jin, reaching 1.8 million jin.

If news of such a rate of improvement spread, even the cubs of Primordial Fierce Beasts would likely be scared to death, unable to tell who was the fierce beast and who was the Human Race.

Even Primordial Fierce Beasts, blessed by nature with powerful bodies and vigorous bloodline power, could not possibly improve at such a speed.

However, in a single night, the medicinal liquid Chu Tian consumed had multiplied as well, reaching four barrels. Chu Tian had awakened Xing Nu three times during the night.

"Young Master, after changing your medicinal liquid last night, I took the opportunity to visit the arena at Sacred Emperor Peak. Sect Master Tianxiong is in a terrible bind right now."

Xing Nu spoke as she dressed Chu Tian, a trace of delight in her voice.

Ever since the young master had rewarded her with the Sacred Vein Flower Fruit, their relationship had grown closer, and she now dared to share some private gossip with him.

"Oh? How so?" Chu Tian asked with a smile, raising his arms for Xing Nu to crouch down and fasten his belt.

"The Ye Family's Bone Forging Realm prodigies who have yet to break through to the Spirit Refining Realm took turns challenging her, but almost none of them could withstand even one move from Hui Mei of the Cihang Sacred Sect. The moment they exchanged blows, they were beaten until their arms and legs broke, left heavily wounded and vomiting blood."

Xing Nu's voice carried a trace of satisfaction. "Even those Ye Family prodigies who had ranked on the Bone Forging Ranking for years—Ye Guan, Ye Hong, and Ye Qin—were all twelve years old this year. They possessed three to four hundred thousand jin of strength, abundant Spiritual Power, and had one foot in the Spirit Refining Realm. At full force, they could even unleash more than a million jin of power, yet not one of them could take a single move from Hui Mei."

"When I went there, the sect disciples had all exploded into an uproar. The higher-ups had dark faces and remained silent, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy."

"I heard that in his desperation, Sect Master Tianxiong gave Ye Qiang—the youth whom you crippled, Young Master—a Divine Medicine. He even intended to use a secret technique to condense Ye Qiang's Spiritual Power and send him to challenge Hui Mei."

"Even the master became anxious and told some of our Chu Family prodigies to prepare to take the stage. Whoever could defeat Hui Lian would be directly rewarded with a sect Divine Medicine. Oh, right, I heard that Chu Xiong, the eldest son of Third Master, had also been preparing to take the stage."

"However, I hurried back to change your medicinal liquid, so I don't know what happened afterward."

Chu Tian smiled faintly. This had been exactly what he expected.

In the original storyline, Hui Mei was a renowned monster even when viewed across the myriad worlds.

Within the Sacred Heaven Sect, the prodigies capable of matching Hui Mei were either still locked in the Sin Prison or had already surpassed the Bone Forging Realm and could not take the stage.

Ye Tianxiong actually thought that other sect disciples of the same realm could defeat Hui Mei. He was simply looking down on Hui Mei far too much.

Chu Tian could already imagine the irritation and heaviness among the sect's higher-ups.

If a ten-year-old child swept through the Sacred Heaven Sect's entire generation, and not even one person could take a single move, the Sacred Heaven Sect would have no face left to show on the Hengtian Continent.

Just then, Chu Tianwang entered the room. His expression was heavy, and he looked somewhat weary as he said,

"Little Tian, come with me to the arena. If things truly cannot be resolved, you will have to take the stage."

If he had any other choice, Chu Tianwang truly did not want Chu Tian to continue drawing attention and stepping into the limelight. It would be best if the Ye Family took the lead and eased the present situation.

But as the Vice Sect Master, at a time like this, he had to consider the sect's reputation.

"Alright, Father," Chu Tian said with a smile.

Before long.

Chu Tian and Chu Tianwang arrived at another great main peak of the Sacred Heaven Sect, Sacred Emperor Peak, the main peak where the current Sacred Heaven Sect Master, Ye Tianxiong, resided.

They had only flown halfway up the mountain when Chu Tian heard a somewhat childish yet boundlessly arrogant voice echoing out.

"I have long heard of the Sacred Heaven Sect's great reputation. It is said to stand above my Cihang Sacred Sect and be hailed as the number one sect of the Hengtian Continent, yet now that I see it, I am truly disappointed."

"In such a vast sect, there is not even a single disciple capable of taking one move from me."

On the arena stood a little bald head with red lips and white teeth, radiating arrogance. His arms were folded across his chest, and he wore a coarse, milky-white hemp robe as his disdainful gaze swept across everyone below the arena.

The little bald head had exquisite, beautiful features, red lips, white teeth, and stood around 1.6 meters tall. Though he had no hair and was a boy, he gave off an eerily enchanting, glamorous air. Many women who saw him would likely feel ashamed of their own appearance.

Below the arena, countless sect disciples looked incomparably stifled and indignant. They only hated that they were not in the Bone Forging Realm, allowing an outsider's little brat to look down on them so contemptuously.

"Where is Little Holy Son Chu Tian? Why hasn't he been sent onto the stage yet?"

"Little Holy Son is the strongest Bone Forging Realm cultivator in our Sacred Heaven Sect. He ranks first on the Bone Forging Ranking."

"What are the higher-ups of the sect, the Two Founding Families, and the Three Top Families doing? Are they just eating for free?"

"To actually let a little bald head spout such wild nonsense on our Sacred Heaven Sect's main peak and demean our sect like this."

"This is fucking suffocating."

"If your skills are inferior, all you can do is take the beating. That Ye Qiang supposedly charged up to third place in the Bone Forging Realm. After swallowing a Divine Medicine and recovering from his injuries, his strength rose to six hundred thousand jin. Before he took the stage, the Sect Master even forcibly condensed his Spiritual Power with a secret technique, allowing him to unleash as much as 1.3 million jin of power. That already counts as cheating. Yet even then, he was still instantly defeated by that little bald head."

"If even cheating can't let us take one move, then once this gets out, our Sacred Heaven Sect will truly become a laughingstock."

The sect disciples' stifled discussions rang out continuously across the plaza.

The faces of the sect higher-ups seated at the top of the viewing platform were even gloomier, as though water could drip from them.

"Why is the Sect Master nowhere to be seen?" one higher-up asked in a low voice, turning toward Ye Tianxiong's seat, which was currently empty.

"The Vice Sect Master is gone too. Did he go to invite Little Holy Son?" An old man with a head full of white hair and beard frowned slightly.

"This concerns the face of our Sacred Heaven Sect. Now is not the time for internal strife."

"If it truly comes to it, we should still ask Little Holy Son to take action. That little bald head is far too arrogant, to actually hold our Sacred Heaven Sect in such contempt." A Grand Elder's face had turned ashen.
