Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law-Chapter 265 - 263: Majestic Heavenly Might! The Hunchbacked Old Sect Leader: "A Genius with World-Shaking Talent Is Breaking Through a Realm

Chapter 265: Chapter 263: Majestic Heavenly Might! The Hunchbacked Old Sect Leader: "A Genius with World-Shaking Talent Is Breaking Through a Realm

Just like a calm lake, originally inhabited by fish that didn’t move much.

Suddenly, a very lively big fish was thrown in, and the whole lake... was stirred up.

Even the Red Cloud Fairy and those Sect Elders didn’t anticipate such a phenomenon.

...

After leaving the Red Cloud Sect, Lu Ye traveled roughly three to four hundred miles before stopping.

"This distance should be enough."

Even if there was a big commotion from several hundred miles away, it wouldn’t be enough to alarm nearby large forces.

Besides, within a thousand-mile radius, the only major force was the Red Cloud Sect.

A cave.

Lu Ye dashed inside, quickly scanning the surroundings; it wasn’t empty, and there was a silly deer inside.

With just a glance from Lu Ye, the deer immediately sensed the two-legged creature in front of it... giving it a sense more terrifying than the Tiger King!

In an instant, it dashed out of the cave, and Lu Ye didn’t stop it.

After confirming there were no other issues, he set up a barrier.

He set up two Tier One Surveillance Array Plates outside, just enough to crisscross, monitoring the vicinity of the cave entrance.

"Entering the path of Arrays does make things a lot more convenient."

Recently, Lu Ye had reduced the time spent practicing Arrays significantly.

Most of his attention was focused on cultivation and practicing a few Divine Techniques he had on hand.

As a result, he had yet to advance to the stage of a Tier Two Array Master.

"I still need to find some time to continue studying the path of Arrays afterward."

Sitting cross-legged, Lu Ye’s mind and heart quickly focused, his expression becoming exceptionally intense.

In the blink of an eye, several Source Crystals appeared before him, along with a Bicolored Spirit Fruit that exuded a faint fragrance.

"The Dual Divine Fruit has gentle medicinal power, perfect for breaking through..."

He decided to first refine the Dual Divine Fruit and push his cultivation to the threshold of the Grandmaster Ninth Layer.

Then he would use the power of the Source Crystals to break through and advance!

Immediately, he swallowed the Dual Divine Fruit whole, and the fist-sized Spirit Fruit dissolved directly in his mouth!

Boom!

A massive surge of medicinal energy suddenly appeared.

Having experienced consuming such Spirit Fruits several times, Lu Ye activated his cultivation technique, guiding these unfamiliar energies through his Circulation, assimilating them for personal use!

At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Source Qi around him was also automatically attracted by the powerful Ancient Star Scripture, forming streams of Source Qi.

...

In a forest, a man was lying on the neck of a Tier Two Fierce Beast, sucking blood.

It seemed the energy accumulating within him had finally reached a certain peak. The more he absorbed, the brighter the bloodshot eyes glowed.

Finally, after draining the last drops of blood, the man immediately sat in meditation, with trails of black energy beginning to permeate his body.

Unknown how much time had passed...

Wang Tiancheng opened his eyes, with less resentment within them, eager to laugh long toward the heavens.

"I, Wang Tiancheng... have finally stepped into the Innate Realm!"

Unlike his previous deep voice, now Wang Tiancheng’s voice, besides being icy, had also... become somewhat sharp.

Soon, as if remembering something, Wang Tiancheng lowered his head, with a trace of blood flashing across his eyes.

"If it wasn’t for that damned Xiao Cui..."

Previously, due to the patrol team, Wang Tiancheng had been forced to enter the forest.

In the mountains, he used the blood of these Low Tier Fierce Beasts as blood meals.

But due to sheer boredom, he couldn’t resist going to a nearby town for some relief.

To Wang Tiancheng’s unexpected horror... the woman arranged by the Cui Xiang Building was actually unwell!

As a result, Wang Tiancheng also contracted an illness.

In this world, there weren’t many good ways to treat such issues.

Consumed by rage, Wang Tiancheng ruthlessly ended it with a swift slash!

Now that he had advanced to the Innate Realm, he found himself incapable in a certain way. His hatred for the Cui Xiang Building had reached its peak.

"I want you all... to be buried with me!"

Gazing at the shady little workshop Cui Xiang Building in the town under the mountain, Wang Tiancheng’s eyes were filled with palpable hatred.

...

In the back mountain.

Emerging from the hot spring, the Red Cloud Fairy lazily stretched.

Suddenly, the initially calm sky resounded with a burst of thunder!

Rumble!

The surroundings shook!

"Why would there be sudden thunder without rhyme or reason?"

The Red Cloud Fairy felt perplexed; it didn’t seem like a sign of an impending weather change or rain.

Shaking her head, the Red Cloud Fairy withdrew her gaze, planning to set the date for accepting apprentices five days later.

The day after that coincided with the refresh of new Ten-Star Tasks.

...

In a place filled with toxic gases, a person rushed into the main hall, speaking urgently.

"Sect Leader... Subordinate’s team came up empty-handed; the entire Luohua Chen Family has left Luohua City!"

"What?!" The Five Poison Sect Leader’s eyes instantly turned cold and sharp, saying: "The whole family left?! It seems they predicted someone would come knocking because of this matter."

"Thus, it further indicates they are undoubtedly linked to the mysterious grandmaster who killed my son."

After pondering with an ominous frown, the Five Poison Sect Leader waved a hand: "I don’t believe they can truly abandon everything they’ve built over these hundreds of years!"

"Send people to closely monitor Luohua City! Once there’s any movement at the Chen Family’s ancestral home, if anyone returns, capture them immediately without reporting!"

"Yes, sir!"

...

Rumble!

Thunder continued to roll over tens of thousands of miles, as if heralding something...

About four hundred miles from the Red Cloud Sect, there was a small sect.

It held only a few dozen disciples, and the Sect Leader had merely Postnatal Seventh to Eighth Layer cultivation.

At that moment, the thunder in this area was much more frequent than outside.

Heavenly thunder boomed, carrying an unbearable might that left the dozens of disciples within the sect wide-eyed in shock.

"What’s going on? Why is thunder striking so frequently all of a sudden?"

"Could it be someone’s swearing an oath at exactly this time... like the heaven’s punishment?"

"With such frequent thunder, if it were an oath, wouldn’t they be struck to ash by a five-thunder barrage!"

Just then, an old, hunched-back elder wearing tattered sect leader garb walked over from the side.

"Why aren’t you cultivating and gossiping instead? Be cautious of offending the heavens."

A chubby-cheeked female disciple laughed: "Sect Leader, it’s not that easy to offend the heavens, hehe... this is just normal thunder, isn’t it?"

The other disciples nodded in agreement; a bit of wind and thunder was nothing abnormal from the heavens.

Upon hearing this, the Sect Leader, whose back had been hunched for decades, suddenly straightened a bit.

His cloudy old eyes, recalling certain past events, also shone brighter.

"This is no ordinary thunder... but true heavenly might!"

"A heaven-gifted prodigy is about to attempt breaking through a realm... attracting formidable heavenly might!"
