Yixian Dao, at the mountain gate.
A man with black hair interspersed with a few strands of white arrived here.
It was none other than Wenren Feng, who had come together from the Southern Continent.
The Shining Star level disciples guarding the mountain gate couldn’t perceive the slightest aura from him and politely asked:
"Fellow Daoist, this is Yixian Dao. May I know who you are and your purpose here?"
Wenren Feng took out a petal of Golden Plum and said, "Treading snow to seek plum, I am Wenren Feng from Mo Mei Valley, here to retrieve an item from Yixian Dao. Please inform Tian Yan Spirit Venerable."
"Tian Yan Spirit Venerable?"
The expressions of the many gatekeeping disciples changed. Although they hadn’t heard of any "Mo Mei Valley," this person actually wanted to find Tian Yan Spirit Venerable!
The leading Shining Star disciple carefully examined the golden plum in Wenren Feng’s hand and discerned that Wenren Feng was not ordinary and likely not someone to be trifled with.
"Senior, please wait a moment. I will inform the higher-ups immediately."
The Shining Star disciple politely acknowledged and promptly took out a Communication Talisman to report the matter to the Burning Sun superior.
Meanwhile, clusters of mysterious golden plum blossoms flew out from within the Yixian Dao sect, as if guiding, and hovered in front of Wenren Feng.
At the same time, the golden plum petal in Wenren Feng’s hand resonated, emitting the same radiance.
It was evident that these golden plum blossoms originated from the same source.
"This??"
The gatekeeping disciples had never seen such a display and widened their eyes.
Wenren Feng’s eyes slightly moved, and he immediately followed the plum blossoms, flying into the depths of Yixian Dao.
Qixia Mountain, Su Yuan was stationed at the Dragon Vein.
Outside, despite many loose cultivator experts covertly watching, no one dared to make a move.
Su Yuan’s act of slaying the Three Fierce Beasts was recent, and although he had experienced several battles and was somewhat depleted, no one dared to provoke him.
As for the other sects and factions... it was too late to send experts over now.
Su Yuan, however, enjoyed the relaxation, recovering his state while experimenting with the newly realized power.
At his fingertips, space power shimmered continually, expanding or contracting...
"Limitless expansion, bottomless contraction..."
Su Yuan looked toward the numerous trees a kilometer away and slashed his sword.
In an instant, the Demon Saber seemed to traverse the kilometer distance, striking the large tree.
With several continuous slashes, one tree after another fell.
Very quickly, Su Yuan sheathed his long blade, happily and contentedly nodding his head.
"Indeed, while retreating for diligent cultivation is important, competing with experts is still necessary."
Su Yuan had been intentionally enhancing his Power of Soul, but had not made significant progress for some time.
Today, the continuous accumulation finally led to an epiphany amidst intense battle, realizing the power of "contraction."
"Moreover, such an ability isn’t just for offense..." Su Yuan’s eyes gleamed.
Contracting space can basically replace Instant Movement, even rivaling the epic skill of Shrinking Ground.
Moreover, compared to frontal combat, using this move for a surprise attack is even more unguardable.
For instance, one might instantly affix the Divine Prohibition onto an opponent before they can react.
"However, the farther the distance, the more Star Power is extra consumed, and it’s easier to be detected."
After familiarizing himself once more, Su Yuan turned to look at Ruan Ruan on his shoulder.
To replenish his Star Power, Ruan Ruan was utterly exhausted and sprawled on his shoulder.
Despite Ruan Ruan’s abundant Star Power, the difference in Star Power strength between her and Su Yuan was still obvious.
However, fortunately, Su Yuan’s Star Power was now about seventy to eighty percent replenished.
Su Yuan placed Ruan Ruan on his shoulder, flipping his hand to take out a blood-red Star Core taken from the corpse of Shan Zhi.
"Ruan Ruan, devour it. You should also advance to Chongyang now."
Currently, Ruan Ruan had already reached the Early Sun Limit. With this Legendary Star Core from the Three Suns Realm as a "catalyst" for breakthrough,
not only can Ruan Ruan smoothly reach Chongyang, but she might also save much accumulation and significantly elevate her cultivation!
"Puchi!" Ruan Ruan accepted the Star Core with shining eyes, then nuzzled in Su Yuan’s arms, "Thank you, Master!"
"Return to the Guardian Beast Space now."
"Mm!"
Ruan Ruan responded, then returned to the Guardian Beast Space first.
Su Yuan glanced at Fu Chaosheng within the Dragon Vein and closed his eyes again.
Not long after, Mu Kexian flew over, landing beside Su Yuan.
