Shocking the World: Upper-Tier Heaven-Reaching and the Sword Sect Saintess's Devotion
"The Golden Body Realm technique! And that Divine Ability!"
A look of wild joy flashed in Dongfang Yueming's eyes. This was a high-end item that truly touched upon the manifestation of laws!
"The three of you will temporarily be in charge of the Blood Sword Sect. While you're at it, take stock of the resources in the treasury."
Dongfang Yueming left the treasure vault, leaving the mess to Hong Gui and the other two, and then announced that he was going into seclusion.
Hong Gui's eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she looked at the treasure trove of cultivation resources. She and Baihu immediately began directing the terrified Blood Sword Sect disciples to move the resources.
During the inventory process.
From a hidden box, Hong Gui pulled out several sets of bibs and light gauze garments woven from extremely rare "Illusory Sea Ice Silkworm Silk," collected by some unknown sect leader. These garments were incredibly thin, semi-transparent, and warm to the touch.
"Oh my, it seems the past leaders of the Blood Sword Sect were kindred spirits."
Hong Gui, holding an extremely sexy, even somewhat revealing, ice-blue bodice, approached Lu Qingxue, who was sitting in the corner lost in thought, with ill intent.
"Qingxue, I've picked out your battle outfit for tonight."
Upon seeing the appalling garment that Hong Gui handed her, Lu Qingxue felt a wave of dizziness and nearly fainted.
Behind the Blood Sword Sect, in a secluded cave dwelling with the most abundant spiritual energy.
Dongfang Yueming sat cross-legged, clearing his mind of distractions.
"Let's start with the methods of the Heaven-Reaching Realm."
He took out the jade slip containing the "Blood Fiend Asura Heaven-Reaching Scripture" (Profound Grade).
"System, enter and Point Allocation!"
[Ding! You have learned Profound Grade -Heaven Reaching Technique (0/80 million, not yet at the Entry)!]
[Ding! Consumed 80 million points, advanced to the Early Heaven-Reaching Realm!]...
[Ding! Consuming 240 million points, the "Blood Fiend Asura Heaven-Reaching Scripture" has advanced to the Heaven-Reaching Perfection!]
Although the technique contained extremely heavy bloodthirsty energy, all negative effects were erased in front of the system, leaving only the purest understanding of the laws of slaughter and destruction.
"Merge!"
Dongfang Yueming did not hesitate at all.
He clashed this newly Perfection Profound Grade technique with the "Azure Darkness Heaven-Embracing Art" within his body, which had already reached the Middle-Tier Perfection, fiercely in his Sea of Consciousness!
"BOOM!!!"
The azure Law of Wind and the dark red Law of Blood Fiend intertwined wildly!
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Fusion successful!]
[Obtained the Earth Grade Heaven Reaching Technique - "Nine Nether Azure Darkness Asura Heaven-Reaching Scripture" (Perfection)!]
"Buzz--!"
With the birth of the Earth Grade Heaven Reaching Technique, the vast magical power within Dongfang Yueming's body underwent another terrifying qualitative change!
Moreover, he even felt that his Divine Sense could easily reach the deepest network of laws in this world!
With just a thought, without needing to cast any Spell, he could forcibly distort the laws governing an area of hundreds of miles!
[Upper-Tier Heaven-Reaching Perfection: Words Become Law!]
"Call..."
Dongfang Yueming slowly opened his eyes, his voice carrying an unquestionable air of divine authority.
"Words Become Law... This feeling of being in complete control is truly captivating."
He knew that he was only two more Yellow Grade materials away from reaching the Top-Tier Perfection of the Heaven-Reaching Realm— [Covering the Heavens with One Hand]!
Night falls.
Behind the original main hall of the Blood Sword Sect, there was a most luxurious hot spring palace.
A misty haze hung in the air.
Lu Qingxue sat blankly by the hot spring pool, her hands tightly clasped together, her knuckles turning white.
She was now wearing the "Illusory Sea Ice Silkworm Silk" bodice that Hong Gui had forcibly shoved into her body.
This bodice could not completely conceal her alluring curves. The icy blue silk clung tightly to her fair, jade-like skin, the allure of the glimpses more potent than complete nudity.
"I... how could I be dressed like this..."
Lu Qingxue was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to disappear into the ground. She hugged her arms tightly, trying to find even the slightest sense of security.
"Hehehe, Qingxue, your figure is such a bargain for that lecherous man."
Wearing a fiery red gauze dress, Hong Gui emerged from the hot spring pool and swam to Lu Qingxue's feet like a beautiful snake, teasingly saying...
Although the Baihu beside her was also dressed in the same white gauze, she was not in the mood for teasing. Her gaze was fixed on the palace gate with tension and anticipation.
"Squeak."
The door was pushed open.
Dongfang Yueming, with his tall and slender figure, slowly walked in, exuding a terrifying aura of a superior who had just emerged from seclusion and whose power had not yet been fully contained.
A misty vapor swirled in the dim light.
Seeing Dongfang Yueming push open the door and enter, Lu Qingxue, who was already so nervous she felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, trembled violently. She instinctively wanted to back away, but her legs felt as heavy as lead, and she could only watch helplessly as the man approached step by step.
Her translucent, ice-blue silk bodice seemed like an ornament under Dongfang Yueming's extremely aggressive gaze, making her feel an unprecedented sense of shame and helplessness.
"What... what do you want to do...?"
Lu Qingxue's voice trembled, and she clutched her chest tightly with both hands.
However, Dongfang Yueming did not pounce on her like a hungry wolf as she had imagined.
He walked to the edge of the hot spring pool, looking down at Lu Qingxue with clear eyes.
"Don't be nervous, I've come to you to make a deal."
"A deal?" Lu Qingxue was taken aback, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. At a time like this, and dressed like this, what kind of deal could he possibly want to discuss?
Dongfang Yueming took out a newly engraved jade slip from his storage ring and casually tossed it to Lu Qingxue.
"This jade slip contains a Earth Grade Heaven Reaching Technique."
"What?!"
Lu Qingxue instinctively caught the jade slip, but upon hearing the words "Earth Grade Heaven Reaching Method," she was so shocked that she almost threw it away!
"Where... where did you get this?!"
Lu Qingxue stared wide-eyed in disbelief. Hadn't the other party just asked her for a Profound Grade? How could they suddenly produce Earth Grade?!
She couldn't resist diverting a sliver of her Divine Sense to probe into the jade slip.
"Boom!"
A vast, profound, and terrifying aura, seemingly capable of controlling the laws of heaven and earth, instantly assaulted her Sea of Consciousness.
"This... this technique actually contains the shadow of the ' Azure Darkness Heaven-Embracing Art ' I gave you before?! And... and the domineering Law of Blood Fiend of the Blood Sword Sect?!"
Lu Qingxue was completely stunned!
She suddenly raised her head and looked at Dongfang Yueming as if he were a monster.
"You... you didn't actually fuse my cultivation technique with the Blood Sword Sect's techniques... and deduce this Earth Grade technique?!"
The moment she came to this conclusion, Lu Qingxue felt her worldview had been completely overturned!
In less than half a day!
To have transformed two Profound Grade techniques into Earth Grade divine arts that directly point to the Great Dao?! Such comprehension and skill are beyond the reach of even the geniuses of the Crimson Profound World, let alone elders at the Golden Body, Returning to Origin, or Divine Transformation Realm stages!
"You don't need to worry about that."
Dongfang Yueming interrupted her shock and said bluntly, "I'll use this Earth Grade technique to exchange for any two Yellow Grade Heaven Reaching techniques you know."
"Yellow Grade? Only two Yellow Grade weapons?"
Lu Qingxue felt that not only were her ears malfunctioning, but her brain was also failing her. Trading Earth Grade for a Yellow Grade weapon? That was practically trading a mountain of gold for two broken bricks!
"What? You don't want to?" Dongfang Yueming frowned slightly.
"I... I'm willing!"
Lu Qingxue took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in her heart.
She immediately and without reservation inscribed two ordinary Yellow Grade Heaven Reaching Techniques that she had casually jotted down during her early travels onto a jade slip and handed it over to Dongfang Yueming.
"Transaction complete."
Dongfang Yueming put away the jade slip, turned around, and prepared to leave the hot spring palace to find a quiet place to continue his synthesis project.
"Wait... wait!"
Just as Dongfang Yueming turned around, Lu Qingxue suddenly called out to him as if possessed.
She bit her red lips, looking at Dongfang Yueming's broad back, a complex struggle flashing in her eyes.
There was shame, there was resentment, but more than anything, there was a kind of longing and depravity that even she herself found frightening...
