Chapter 199
Li Yang didn't bother to reply, focusing only on reaping the benefits of her lifespan.
These few days were too short; Li Yang only managed to gain one level of experience at most.
Fortunately, her lifespan has been increased to 1.6 million years.
With the addition of Lianlian's water reservoir, her lifespan is now even longer.
At the same time, Li Yang also appraised all the Star Skill of the Flower of Evil.
Time Rewind is actually the lowest-level Star Skill possessed by the Flower of Evil, so it only consumed ten thousand years of lifespan to complete the appraisal.
Others would require at least 20,000 years, or even longer...
Relying on the large number of Star Plant, Li Yang gritted her teeth and had them all identified.
Anyway, leveling up is extremely difficult for her; it takes millions of years of lifespan to grind for experience points for even a small stage.
It would be better to use some lifespan assessments on Star Skill and then maximize the lifespan cap.
Professor Li came to the Sand Fruit Realm Domain to retrieve the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower. She was completely unaware of the existence of the Flower of Flower of Evil and was earnestly instructing Li Yang to take good care of herself.
Li Yang was very patient. She wasn't in a hurry to harvest the Star Plant and listened attentively for a long time.
The Flower of Evil said sourly, "You're not always this patient when I'm talking."
Li Yang retorted without hesitation, "What makes you think you can compare to Teacher Li?"
The Flower of Evil immediately retorted, "Who wants to compare themselves to someone at the Eighth Grade Realm!"
Before Li Yang could say anything, Lianxin Xin said, "Even if Master Li is only at the First Grade Realm, she is still an elder worthy of respect and love."
Li Yang: "!"
Flower of Evil: "..."
Li Yang beamed and said to Lianxin, "Lianlian is right!"
Flower of Evil: "..."
With only one day left until the Personal Disciple Tournament, Kong Shisan couldn't help but send Li Yang another message, afraid that she would miss it.
Li Yang had also made thorough preparations. After confirming that Marquis of Wind Pavilion had handed over the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower to her teacher, she prepared to head to the Deep Space Realm Domain.
Now that Li Yang is Xuanyuan's personal disciple, she has a dedicated Teleportation Anchor to return to the Deep Space Realm Domain, so she won't waste the life-saving anchor point that Xuanyuan gave her.
As soon as Li Yang returned to the Deep Space Realm Domain, Xuanyuan sensed it.
He appeared before her in a flash, and after examining her for a moment, his eyes lit up. "Not bad, it seems you've recovered very well in the Bone Peach Domain; the purity of your Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul is even higher."
The biggest problem with the Bone Peach Mother Tree is that it consumed too many people in the past.
The cultivation of the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul is extremely meticulous and cannot tolerate the slightest flaw.
The reason Xuanyuan sent her back to the Bone Peach Domain to cultivate was to restore the vitality of her native Realm Domain in order to purify the suppressed pollution.
Ironically, the Bone Peach Mother Tree's previous realm was improved by hollowing out the Bone Peach Domain.
Therefore, the source of pollution within the Bone Peach Mother Tree is in the Bone Peach Domain.
Now that Xuanyuan has given her a large amount of resources to purify the Bone Peach Domain, it has neutralized the pollution, essentially making up for the mistakes made by the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
The Lost Space Society has had similar experiences before, with some Disciple advancing all the way up—although the probability is extremely low, there is still a one in ten thousand chance of reaching the Ninth-Grade Supreme.
To stabilize Ninth-Grade Supreme, one needs to cleanse oneself of impurities.
This is quite complicated and troublesome. Fortunately, the Bone Peach Mother Tree's realm is not high enough, and the pollution on it is relatively less. As long as the Bone Peach Domain recovers its vitality, it can be basically neutralized.
The fact that the Bone Peach Mother Tree had advanced another minor realm in such a short time greatly surprised Xuanyuan.
As expected of the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul, its cultivation speed is astonishing.
Among the Star Wielders of the Astral Realm, the dilemma of the Pure Cultivation faction is that their cultivation is extremely slow in the early stages, especially before reaching the Master Realm.
However, once they advance to the Master Realm, not only will their power become more solid, but their cultivation speed will also be faster than that of the Devouring Sect!
Unfortunately, countless ascetics never reach the Master Realm in their entire lives.
If the Devouring Faction is ruthless enough and consumes enough people, they have a high probability of becoming Master.
Xuanyuan already had high expectations for the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul, and now that he saw the Bone Peach Mother Tree's cultivation progress so greatly, his expectations were even higher, and he valued her even more.
"Why are you back? Are you running out of Star Core?" Xuanyuan spoke to her with gentleness and kindness, truly like a master who cares for his disciple.
"There are enough Star Core..." Li Yang paused for a moment, then said, "Master... a few days ago, Kong Shisan came to see me in the Bone Peach Domain..."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan frowned slightly and said, "Your priority is to improve your cultivation level. Don't worry about those trivial matters. As for your Disciple, just have them submit tributes regularly."
Li Yang bit her lower lip, glanced at Xuanyuan, and then quickly lowered her eyes again.
She clearly had something on her mind, but didn't know how to bring it up.
Xuanyuan, with his keen insight, immediately understood what was going on.
He was especially familiar with the thoughts of Kong Shisan and Mi Liu's group.
The Personal Disciple Tournament is about to begin, Xuanyuan originally didn't want the Bone Peach Mother Tree to participate, as it would only delay her cultivation and wouldn't bring her much benefit.
It's quite obvious that Mi Liu is in a hurry.
Seeing that the time was right, Li Yang stammered, "Master, although you have accepted me as your personal disciple, my foundation and cultivation level are far inferior to those of my senior brothers and sisters. Won't you... feel ashamed of me?"
Xuanyuan sighed softly and said, "That Personal Disciple Tournament is too difficult for you..."
Li Yang lowered her eyelashes and said dejectedly, "I know, my cultivation level is too low. Going there will only embarrass my master."
Xuanyuan frowned and said, "Don't let your mind wander. This is a crucial time for cultivation. Don't let other people's nonsense disturb your mind!"
Li Yang didn't press the matter and obediently replied, "Disciple understands..."
As she spoke, her spirits sank further, and her clenched fists revealed her deep resentment and unease.
Once you reach the Master Realm, the most important thing in cultivation is your state of mind.
Even if the Bone Peach Mother Tree returns to the Bone Peach Domain in this state, it will likely hinder her cultivation.
Although Xuanyuan was somewhat annoyed with Mi Liu and Kong Shisan, he knew he couldn't let the Bone Peach Mother Tree go back like this.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, that Personal Disciple Tournament is in the First Realm Domain. Go there... you might find something useful."
Chapter 199
Li Yang was quite confident in securing the qualification for the Personal Disciple Tournament.
It was Kong Shisan who revealed this information. Even if Xuanyuan was dissatisfied, he would only think that Kong Shisan and Mi Liu were just making a mess of things.
It's perfectly normal for the Bone Peach Mother Tree, having climbed up from the bottom, to feel insecure about its identity.
Xuanyuan was particularly afraid of delaying the cultivation of the Bone Peach Mother Tree, so whenever Li Yang acted as if she was having a hard time, Xuanyuan would help her solve the problem.
Upon hearing Xuanyuan's words, Li Yang immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Thank you, Master! I will definitely not let you down!"
In the Spirit Sea, the Flower of Evil silently grumbled, "It's not just that you won't be disappointed; it'll probably scare you to death."
Lianxin also spoke up, saying, "Fellow Daoist never disappoints anyone."
[Lifespan increased by 1000 years.]
[Lifespan increased by 1000 years.]
Fortunately, Li Yang was acting cheerful right now, otherwise Lianxin's words would have taken her out of character.
Since Xuanyuan had agreed to let the Bone Peach Mother Tree Personal Disciple Tournament, he would naturally tell her about the details of the Personal Disciple Tournament in detail.
Li Yang followed Xuanyuan back to his residence.
Xuanyuan still lived in a separate Realm Domain, and Li Yang didn't dare to look around.
However, this time, she had a fairly knowledgeable Flower of Evil in her Spirit Sea, who commented, "The Deep Space Realm Domain has been completely fragmented by them. Have they each taken over a portion? They really know how to cause trouble!"
Li Yang didn't dare to get distracted and didn't ask any more questions.
However, the fact that the Flower of Evil can see more of Xuanyuan's secrets is only beneficial to her and not harmful.
Xuanyuan's room was filled with a rich Power of Space and Power of Water.
Li Yang felt that the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul was constantly absorbing this divine power. Xuanyuan also noticed this, and after giving an approving look, he said, "Once you have purified your spiritual pollution in the Bone Peach Domain, I will bring you to the Upper Three Realms for cultivation. There are many divine Realm Domain here suitable for your cultivation, and you can rapidly improve your cultivation level then."
Li Yang nodded vigorously and obediently agreed.
The Flower of Evil was grumbling again. "Heh, he wishes he could reach the Divine Venerable Realm in a single day and then devour your Myriad Phenomena Divine Soul."
Divine Soul?
Li Yang noticed this word.
This must be the state of the Origin Soul after it has advanced to the Divine Venerable Realm.
Is Xuanyuan really going to build up the Bone Peach Mother Tree to the Divine Venerable Realm?
Is he really that confident he can devour a Divine Venerable Realm? Or will he tamper with the Bone Peach Mother Tree, ensuring that even if she advances to Divine Venerable, she will still be under his control?
Before Personal Disciple Tournament, Xuanyuan first introduced several of his senior brothers and sisters from the Bone Peach Mother Tree.
The Personal Disciple Tournament has a level limit; once one reaches the Ninth-Grade Supreme, they can no longer participate.
The reason why the cultivation level was not limited to the Eighth Grade Realm is that among the Sage's direct disciples, there is none below the Eighth Grade Realm.
The Bone Peach Mother Tree is an unprecedented exception.
Five disciples from Xuanyuan's sect participated in this Personal Disciple Tournament, ranging from Xuan Qi to Xuan Shiyi.
This also shows that the Lost Space Society a terrifying foundation.
Xuanyuan alone has six Ninth-Grade Supreme under his command.
However, Xuan Yi has already been killed by the Flower of Evil, so there are currently five of them.
The reason why the Bone Peach Mother Tree and the others did not move up in the rankings is because the impact of this matter is negative, and the higher-ups of the Lost Space Society Council have temporarily suppressed it.
If the fact that Xuan Yi was killed is exposed, they will have to take action against the Flower of Evil.
The situation in the Evil Domain is quite complex right now, and it is not suitable to send troops to encircle and suppress it for the time being.
In particular, the death of Xuan Yi means that no one can inherit the Authority of Evil, so it's best to suppress this matter for now.
Xuanyuan was not particularly heartbroken by Xuan Yi's death.
