With this thought in mind, Chen Lingxi no longer hesitated.

He bid farewell to Elder Mo, then went to collect the numerous chief rations, and then took to the clouds.

He then soared away on the clouds, flying down from the Yangjue Main Peak.

The wind howled in my ears, and the sea of clouds surged like waves beneath my feet.

He sped along, crossing several mountain peaks, getting further and further away from the Yangjue Main Peak.

At that moment, he suddenly frowned.

In the distance, atop a mountain peak, stood a figure.

The man stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering in the wind.

He had his back to Chen Lingxi and was facing the surging sea of clouds.

However, Chen Lingxi sensed an extremely powerful fluctuation of Dao Origin from that figure.

The waves were deep and vast, like an abyss or the sea, like an invisible mountain standing on its summit, pressing down on the surrounding clouds and causing them to stagnate.

Chen Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly.

Without a second thought, he recognized the man.

Just now in the main hall, among the three elders, one had a gloomy face and was extremely young.

The other two addressed this person as Elder Liu.

This person must be Elder Liu Zhi.

"Trouble is brewing," Chen Lingxi thought to herself.

Just then, the figure on the mountaintop slowly turned its head.

It was a rather handsome young face, but the sinister and cold look in his eyes was completely at odds with his appearance.

The gaze pierced through the layers of clouds and landed directly on Chen Lingxi.

Seeing this, Chen Lingxi knew there was no way to avoid it, so he stopped using the Cloud-Riding Method.

The clouds slowly dissipated beneath his feet, and he landed atop the mountain peak, facing Elder Liu Zhi from a distance of several dozen steps.

He straightened his clothes and bowed to the elder.

"The Spirit-Bearing Daoist greets Elder Liu."

To Chen Lingxi's surprise...

Elder Liu Zhi did not answer, but suddenly snapped his fingers.

A beam of light shot out from his fingertips and landed in the Void.

After the spiritual light dissipated, a Ganoderma lucidum mushroom floated in front of Chen Lingxi.

The lingzhi mushroom was about a foot long, with a deep purple color all over, and a layer of warm spiritual light flowing on its cap.

The light was extremely soft and faint, yet it exuded an extremely profound Spiritual Qi, like a spring of spiritual energy that never dries up.

At that moment, Liu Zhi spoke.

"Now that you have joined the Sun-Awakening Upper Peak sect, the matter of Azure Pool Peak is no longer possible."

"If things don't go well, I won't accept the reward." He said, "Take this Clear Origin Zhi Herb back and return it to Azure Pool Peak."

Chen Lingxi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

He had assumed that Elder Liu Zhi was waiting there to cause him trouble, but he never expected it to be for this reason.

"Disciple obeys," he replied, reaching out to take the Clear Origin Zhi Herb.

Elder Liu Zhi said no more.

He turned around and conjured a beam of Mystic Light.

The Mystic Light was incredibly fast; one moment it was on the mountaintop, and the next it had transformed into a tiny point of light at the edge of the sky, disappearing into the depths of the sea of clouds in an instant.

Chen Lingxi stood atop the mountain peak, still holding the Clear Origin Zhi Herb in her hands.

He was somewhat surprised.

He had initially thought Elder Liu Zhi was looking for trouble, but to his surprise, the elder simply delivered a message and gave him a Ganoderma lucidum before leaving so decisively.

He shook his head and put the Clear Origin Zhi Herb into his Chaos Bag.

Then, he felt a pang of emotion.

"I never expected it to go so smoothly." He thought to himself, "In that case, I've wasted this chance for Total Perception Evolution."

He looked up at the sky.

The Twin Luminous Mirrors in the sky still hung high, radiating a light that only he could see.

Chen Lingxi shook her head, suppressing these thoughts for the time being.

He turned and flew towards the direction of the Sun-Watching Peak.

Sun-Watching Peak.

Chen Lingxi descended from the clouds and landed before the mountain gate.

Compared to Sun-Awakening Upper Peak Sun-Watching Peak is like a thatched hut compared to a palace.

The mountain is not high, and the palace buildings are quite old.

The moment he stepped through the mountain gate, he startled the disciples on the peak.

Before long, Cheng Shiyan, Zhu Qingjian, and others came out to greet them.

"Senior Spirit Bearer!" Cheng Shiyan walked at the front and bowed.

Chen Lingxi nodded.

Hua Liuli opened her bright eyes wide and asked, "Senior! Did that Sun-Awakening Upper Peak, make things difficult for you?"

Chen Lingxi shook her head. "No."

"Then..." Ning Ya tentatively asked, "What about the matter of Azure Pool Peak?"

Chen Lingxi glanced at him and said, "I have already joined the Sun-Awakening Upper Peak, so from now on, Sun-Watching Peak should no longer be provoked."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

"If that's the case, can we still cultivate here on Sun-Watching Peak?" Hua Liuli took a deep breath.

Chen Lingxi nodded slightly, then looked at Zhu Qingjian.

"Zhu Qingjian," he said, "Write a letter to Azure Pool Peak."

He then said, "I have already brought the Clear Origin Zhi Herb back to Sun-Watching Peak. Let them come and get it."

"Whether they dare to come and take it or not is their business."

After a long period of commotion, Cheng Shiyan remained the most composed. He dismissed the crowd and led Chen Lingxi into the inner hall.

"You may rest here, senior."

"For any needs, simply transmit your Divine Sense to me."

Cheng Shiyan respectfully and then took his leave.

Chen Lingxi watched Cheng Shiyan leave the inner hall before sitting down in the room.

He closed his eyes, concentrated, and regulated his breathing for a moment.

At this time, only a little over a day had passed since the beginning of the Total Perception Evolution.

"What a waste of this Total Perception Evolution."

He thought for a moment, and then a sudden idea struck him.

"Why don't I go to the Dragon-Offering Main Sect and take a look at the Dragon-Transformation Immortal Ranking?"

It is said that the Immortal Ranking is engraved with the most extraordinary young people among the Dragon-Offering Peaks.

If one can ascend to that Immortal Ranking, one will encounter all sorts of mysterious fortuitous opportunity, just like the Immortal Ranking in the Weiji Grotto-Heaven.

With this on his mind, Chen Lingxi no longer delayed.

"The rapid travel over the past few days has consumed a great deal of Dao Origin."

The journey to the Dragon-Offering Sect is long, and I need to replenish my Dao Origin first."

With these thoughts in mind, he sat cross-legged on the bed, and with a slight thought, the Concealed Edge Method quietly began to operate.

An invisible barrier of spiritual energy emanated from his body, locking down an area of ten zhang around the house.

From this point on, not a single trace of energy or spiritual energy fluctuations within this ten-zhang radius will leak out.

Only after doing all this did he turn his palm over.

A misty aura wafted out.

The aura was extremely rich and pure, filling the entire room in an instant.

The incomparably precious spiritual energy of Immortal Husk permeated the house.

The spiritual energy was so dense, it was like a tangible mist. Within that mist, countless fine golden runes flowed, each rune radiating an indescribable and profound Daoist charm.

[Immortal Husk].

Chen Lingxi gazed at the Immortal Husk, his eyes calm. He closed his eyes and began to Dragon-Stripping Dao-Transforming Primordial Qi Formula.

The Immortal Husk energy surged towards him like a burst dam, flowing into his body continuously through his breath and pores.

The spiritual energy that entered his body was like a scalding hot spring flowing through a dried-up riverbed, gradually replenishing the Dao Origin he had consumed during his days of rapid travel.

He was about to devote himself to spiritual cultivation...

Suddenly, an unexpected change occurred!

Then it was broad daylight!

It was as if a real sun had crashed down from outside this house, from the sky above!

The light was so bright that Chen Lingxi involuntarily opened her eyes.

He looked up.

Then, his breathing suddenly stopped.

Above the window, a tiny sun was hanging in the sky!

The sun hung high above Sun-Watching Peak, its entire body ablaze with blazing white flames. The flames surged and churned, illuminating the entire Sun-Watching Peak.

Within the sun, a human figure could be vaguely seen.

The figure was burly, and his robes fluttered in the flames.

His face was obscured by the blazing white flames, leaving only a vague outline and a slightly upturned corner of his mouth.

The figure was smiling.

Chen Lingxi's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Yangjue Peak Master!"

He clearly saw that the figure's gaze was fixed directly on the Immortal Husk body in front of him.

"Immortal Husk!"

"A mere Rogue Cultivator cultivator actually possesses such a wondrous item!"

The next moment...

Everything around him shattered, and Chen Lingxi was plunged into complete darkness.

When he awoke again, he saw himself still standing on the Sun-Awakening Upper Peak, following Wang Chenchuan in the Void, under that small sun.

The sunlight shone with an ancient and ethereal quality.

Under the sun, Yangjue Peak Master, who held the Flood Dragon in his hand, had a gleam in his eyes as he looked directly at Chen Lingxi.

"Immortal Husk!"

"This is truly a great fortuitous opportunity!"
