A Year in the Blink of an Eye

In the days that followed, Jiang Yun continued studying the Eight Forbidden Domain.

He pursued enlightenment with difficulty, pondering it without cease. Now and then, he had a strange experience: for an instant, he transcended himself and broke past the Eight Forbidden Domain!

But after the first time, he experienced it only twice more. The feeling was wondrous. He could use Nine Secrets: Jie, multiplying his combat power tenfold and surpassing the Eight Forbidden Domain!

For an instant, he felt as though he had ascended. Every pore opened, as if he were receiving a divine baptism. Yet each time, he quickly fell back to the mortal world. It never lasted.

All three times Jiang Yun had triggered the Divine Forbidden Domain, he had relied on comprehending scriptures and secret arts to touch it.

He could not help imagining what it would be like to enter the Eight Forbidden Domain through his own strength alone.

Then, without relying on any secret art, every move he made would reach the utmost limit. Who at the same level could stop him?

For now, though, he remained far, far from it. He had never even heard of anyone achieving the state he imagined.

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, the Jade Pool Grand Gathering was about to begin, marking an important turning point.

After the gathering, nearly all the prodigies of the Eastern Wilderness would head to the Central Plains and enter Qishi Mansion to cultivate.

Although he had received an invitation long ago, he had yet to go to Qishi Mansion. He had his concerns. He might have overshadowed the Eastern Wilderness's younger generation,

and his cultivation might be far ahead of theirs, but across the vast Big Dipper, he had yet to reach the very top.
