Even outside of Mo Yang’s involvement, Lingxu Sect as a whole typically only procured medial pills once a year. And due to the exorbitant cost of pills, they would rarely purchase more than thirty at a time.

  Moreover, the pills they were able to procure were all ordinary-grade pills.

  What Mo Yang had just mentioned, however, were not ordinary items. While they weren’t familiar with the Youth Retaining Pill, they did know about the Marrow sing Pill—a treasure that refihe very foundation of one’s physique. It was so rare and sought-after that even the major sects fought fiercely over it.

  This wasn’t something that could be casually bought, and even if it could, Mo Yang would never be able to afford it. The astronomical price alone was far beyond what a disciple could bear.

  Mo Yang snorted coldly and said, "If you want the truth, wait until Su Feier wakes up. You ask her yourself about everything that happened. As for the pills—why should I expin anything to you?"

  The Grand Elder’s face darkeurning a shade ray in his anger. He was about to retort when a sudden wave of energy emanated from Mo Yang’s house, abruptly sileng him.

  "Could it be that Feier has broken through?" the Supreme Elder excimed in surprise. That energy fluctuation was unmistakably the sign of a breakthrough.

  Immediately after, a powerful aura at the third level of the Tongling Realm spread out from the room.

  Even the Sect Master couldn’t suppress the glimmer of joy in his eyes. He was fully aware of Su Feier’s cultivation, and reag the third level of the Tongling Realm was clearly a breakthrough.

  However, before anyone could say anything, the gathered elders’ expressions began to shift as the aura inside tithen. The early stage of the third level gradually transitioo the mid-stage, growing more and more robust.

  "What’s happening? How is her cultivation increasing like this… this is impossible!" The Sed Elder’s expression was full of disbelief as he stared at the room behind Mo Yang, his voice trembling.

  Mo Yang, while somewhat surprised, wasn’t the least bit shocked.

  After all, Su Feier had ed so many Marrow sing Pills at once. Although it had nearly cost her life, the bes were unimagihe plete refi of her impurities was akin to a full rebirth—unlog her potential and making this breakthrough entirely reasonable.

  "She’s reached the mid-stage of the third level iongling Realm… This…" Even the Sect Master couldn’t help but excim. In all his years of cultivation, he had never seen such rapid adva.

  Ahe aura within the room tio grow. It wasn’t until it approached the peak of the third level that it finally stabilized.

  The Supreme Elder couldn’t hold bay longer and rushed toward the room. Just as he reached the doorway, he suddenly stopped and turo Mo Yang. "Boy, is Feier dressed?"

  The Sect Master, who had followed closely behind, stumbled to a halt, turning his gaze to Mo Yang as well.

  One by ohe elders all stopped and directed their questioning eyes at Mo Yang, momentarily setting aside their earlier accusatiarding the pills.

  Mo Yang: "…"

  His fastantly darkened, as if it were buro charcoal. It seemed he would be bmed no matter how he tried to expin. Everything he had said earlier might as well have been wasted words.

  With a resolute tone, Mo Yang decred, "I didn’t undress her!"

  "I repeat—I did nothing! I didhe meat, drink the soup, or even cook the meal!"

  The Supreme Elder blinked in fusion befring at Mo Yang. "Ignorant kid, I’ll deal with you ter!"

  Without further ado, the elders filed into the room one by one. Mo Yang sighed helplessly ahe courtyard immediately. He couldn’t afford to get tangled up with these old geezers any longer.

  By now, the sun was setting, painting the sky with a radiant glow of twilight.

  Staring up at the heavens, Mo Ya a pang of indescribable loneliness. In the past, even though the sect's elders and many disciples didn’t care for him, there had always been someone by his side, encing him and ensuring he never felt alone.

  But now, it seemed as though the entire world had abandoned him.

  The Xuantian ti was vast and boundless. Lingxu Sect was merely an ordinary sect located in the western region of the ti. Yet even in this western region, tless sects were scattered across the nd. It was said that some a holy nds with legacies spanning millennia still existed somewhere on this expansive ti.

  "Mo Yang," his te master, the Fourth Elder, had once said, "I’ve spent my entire life in the western region of this ti. But one day, you must ve ahe world beyond. That’s where true geniuses pete."

  The memory of his master’s words echoed in his mind. Now that his master was gone, Mo Yang’s heart no longer felt tied to the sect.

  He po leave ohe time was right—not just to bee stronger, but also to seek answers.

  There were too many mysteries surrounding him. It felt as though a powerful hand had tampered with his fate. Even the ar Sn, which seemed to hold great significe, was utterly unfamiliar to him. Despite p over tless aexts in the sect’s library, he had found ion of it.

  As night fell, Mo Yauro Wood Peak, estimating that the elders had likely left by now.

  Walking into the courtyard, he noticed the flickering light of a dle within his house, indig someone was inside.

  Mo Yang frowned. Could those old geezers still be here waiting for him?

  He opehe door, only to be stunned by the sight before him.

  Ihe room, the dlelight illuminated a wooden tub filled with steaming water. Sitting iub was her than Su Feier.

  The wooden tub was Mo Yang’s usual bath, pced there because he had been using Marrow sing Pills frequently. Each time he ed one, impurities and filth would be expelled from his body, so he had kept the tub indoors for venience.

  But now, Su Feier was using it.

  The sudden sight left Mo Yang momentarily frozen. While he had never harbored any improper thoughts about Su Feier, his body reacted instinctively. His gaze, beyond his trol, waoward certain pces.

  At his current age, his blood was at its peak vitality. In just a few seds, his breathing quied, and he felt his blood rushing untrolbly.

  Su Feier was equally stunned. She had assumed Mo Yang wouldn’t return for quite some time. After waking up earlier and disc the foul stench emanating from her body, she had decided to bathe quickly and quietly. Who could have guessed he would return so soon?

  After a brief moment of shock, her scream pierced the night.

  The shriek, sharp and loud, jolted Mo Yang back to his senses. He paled in terror, hastily turned around, shut the door, and fled the courtyard without looking back.

  It wasn’t until midnight that Mo Yang cautiously returned. After the area and firming that Su Feier had already left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  Ba his room, he ehe Star Sn Tower. His true energy had grown increasingly robust, to the point where it was being difficult to suppress. He o prepare for a breakthrough.

  The Heavenly Profound Realm differed signifitly from the previous three realms. Instead of three stages, it was divided into nine levels.

  This realm marked a turning point for cultivators. Upon breaking into the Heavenly Profound Realm, one o open their profound veins—unlog nine hidden treasures within the body. These veins would ect their entire system, allowing spiritual energy to flow seamlessly. At this stage, their bat power would experien earth-shattering transformation, utterly surpassing previous realms.
