Chapter 635: Chapter 294: A Soul Destroying Blow, Annihilating a Sect
As soon as Han Yi’s words fell, Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue stood up abruptly, trembling all over.
“Sect…Sect Leader?”
“Really?”
“Where is our Sect Leader?”
Han Yi expected the excitement of the two people in front of him. After all, Yuan Shun was the pillar of the Xuandan Sect, missing for more than thirty years. Now, suddenly hearing news about Yuan Shun from him, how could they not be excited?
“Don’t get too excited, let me explain.”
Han Yi raised a hand, and it took Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue half a minute to gradually calm down, even though they were experienced and had extraordinary mental states. Their eyes were still fixed on Han Yi, unwilling to miss any information about Yuan Shun.
“It’s a long story.”
“Elder brother and elder sister don’t know my experience during this trip, so I’ll make a long story short.”
“Fifteen years ago, during the Evil chaos in the Eastern Sea, I was swallowed by the Devouring Sky Evil God into the inner space and appeared in… the Illuminating World.”
“That’s also why the Soul Lamp in the sect was extinguished. After crossing the realm, the Soul Lamp, a fairly common Divine Soul marking, was not enough to discern life and death. When I left the realm, the Soul Lamp naturally went out.”
“Let me get back to my story. Arriving in the Illuminating World, I began searching for a way to return to the Yu Heng realm…”
“… With the help of the Evil Clan’s passage, I waited for ten years in the Illuminating World before arriving in Tianquan World through the passage between the two realms…”
“… In the Endless Corpse Domain to the north of Tianquan, I saw Sect Leader…”
Han Yi recounted the important content succinctly, but the dangers implied in these ordinary words had already caused Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue to change their faces several times.
Of course, Han Yi had hidden many key details, such as the Void Prison, Yuan Shun’s state, and some of his Immortal Affinities.
“… Then, in the Yun Luo Mountain Range, I swallowed the Supreme Order, pushed forward the Nascent Soul, attracted the Heavenly Tribulation…”
When it came to this, Zhuge Wu You’s pupils shrank wildly, and a trace of ecstasy appeared, but he still forcibly held back.
“…Nine Mansions Cultivators, Soul Hall’s Yan Zhan…”
After a long time, Han Yi stopped talking.
There was dead silence in the hall, and it took Zhuge Wu You a full ten breaths of time before he let out a heavy sigh. Just as Han Yi spoke, he had held his breath, afraid that everything in front of him would shatter like an illusion with just one breath.
Fortunately, everything in front of him was real.
“Circulation of the Three Realms, seeing Sect Leader and forming the Nascent Soul in Daqin.”
“Junior brother, you…you… This journey, fifteen years, it’s simply… simply unbelievable…”
Zhuge Wu You paused, unable to find the right words to describe Han Yi.
Si Hongxue was even more stunned in place, and after a moment, she looked at Han Yi incredulously.
“So, Junior Brother Han is now…a Nascent Soul?”
Han Yi nodded and no longer hid the aura around him. The aura circulated within the hall, and above his head, a Nascent Soul emerged, resembling another Han Yi. Initially, it looked no different from the main body, but the Nascent Soul’s powerful aura was unique.
The Nascent Soul looked at Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue.
“Senior Brother, Senior Sister, now you should believe it, right?”
Then, the Nascent Soul fell back into the flesh, entering the internal space.
Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue had already believed when Han Yi’s aura changed. The Nascent Soul’s aura was different from the Golden Core. Passing through the Heavenly Tribulation, the Nascent Soul had already transformed from illusion to reality, and could be called a True Monarch. The two of them had naturally seen quite a few Nascent Souls, and they knew this clearly.
“Great, this is great. Sect Leader is still alive, and Junior Brother Han has also advanced to Nascent Soul. Now, our Xuandan Sect finally has two Nascent Souls.”
“From now on, we will truly be a Nascent Soul Great Sect.”
“Heaven bless Xuandan.”
Zhuge Wu You stood up again, his voice resounding. By the end, his excitement had brought him to tears.
Han Yi looked at this old man who had dedicated his life to the Xuandan Sect, feeling a great sense of respect.
A moment later, as the few people in the hall calmed down, Han Yi stood up again.
“Time is of the essence; now that I’ve returned, there is no need for Sumeru Valley, the Robbing cultivators in Feilei Mountain, to continue existing.”
“After that, we will discuss the reconstruction of the sect after the Robbing cultivators’ catastrophe.”
Having said that, Han Yi bid farewell to Zhuge Wu You and Si Hongxue, and flew up again, walking through the void, boarding the Immortal Boat, and flying away.
Outside Xuandan Hall.
Zhuge Wu You watched Han Yi board the Immortal Boat and leave, his mood complicated.
“In just a few years, not even a hundred years, the Middle Stage Qi Cultivating boy who had bribed the Outer Peak Master to escape the Demon Lair has now become the towering tree of the sect.”
“What a blessing for our sect.”
Si Hongxue withdrew her gaze, her eyes falling on Zhuge Wu You, and a tear suddenly fell: “Junior Brother Han has returned, and now we know that our Sect Leader is alive. From now on, Senior Brother can be more at ease.”
…
Sumeru Valley was located to the east of the Xuandan Sect, both were Golden Core Sects within Luofeng Country. Before this, there was no conflict, because Xuandan Sect was a Nascent Soul Great Sect, Sumeru Valley was only a Golden Core Sect, and naturally, they would not provoke each other easily. Moreover, the Xuandan Sect’s high-level leaders knew that the Sect Leader was missing, so they felt insecure.
So, before Han Yi left, everything was peaceful.
After Han Yi’s death in the Eastern Sea was revealed, Sumeru Valley began to have some ideas as well.
Ten years ago, Sumeru Valley tested the waters, but without any certainty, they dropped their plan. Ten years later, the cultivators from Feilei Mountain came to discuss, and Sumeru Valley started causing trouble again, seizing a medicinal field of Xuandan Sect and detaining more than a dozen Qi Cultivating practitioners and two Foundation Establishment Elders, aiming at Xuandan Sect.
