”It's already so late. It's time to go back.” When Ling Yunfan woke up from his sleep, he looked up and realized what had happened. He then slowly loosened his grip on the rain foam, and patted it as he said, ”It's getting late, we should go back.”
Lingyun had no other choice but to pick him up and walk towards the territory of the Apothecary Guild. At this moment, he could not use any forceful method to wake up the rain that was already sleeping, so he could only bring him back.
However, when he returned to the territory of the Alchemist Association, he suddenly felt that something was amiss. Everyone in this territory had mysteriously gone to rest, as though they had disappeared.
However, since he didn't want the rain to catch cold, he could only bring it back to the stone room he cultivated in. He placed the blanket on the bed beside him and sat down to begin cultivating the second layer of the Godly Demon Annihilation Technique.
”...”
In the blink of an eye, the sky lit up, and the rain droplets that were sleeping woke up. Lingyun, who should have been sitting on the ground cultivating, did not know where to go.
There was a slip of paper by her bedside. When it was discovered, she immediately picked it up and took a look.
”Because I have broken through to the Profound Realm, according to the rules of the Hidden Dragon Sect, once an inner sect disciple reaches the Profound Realm, they will need to pass the Profound Realm test and advance to become a core disciple, so now they must quickly return to the sect to receive the test. Originally, I had planned to call you over, but seeing that you were sleeping soundly, I recalled that you, Yu Mo, in order to travel day and night, didn't rest at all, so you should just stay here, I'm really sorry!”
After he finished reading the contents of the paper, although Yu Mo was unhappy about Lingyun secretly running away and leaving her, but she was still happy that Lingyun Fan was about to become a core disciple.
”...”
”There are still more than a year and a few months before the life and death battle between you and Li Xue'er begins. After you become a core disciple, you must quickly come here to cultivate and prepare for the upcoming battle.” Sitting on the White Eagle that was flying in the sky, the Great Elder of the Nebula Pavilion said to Ling Yunfan beside him with a serious expression.
After hearing the words of the Great Elder of the Nebula Pavilion, he nodded and said, ”I also plan to do so. Although I am anxious to avenge my clan members, without absolute strength, there is nothing I can do. Furthermore, I don't have any clues either.
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and continued with his training.
”...”
After seven days had passed, the Senior Elder of the Nebula Pavilion brought Lingyun back to the main hall of the Hidden Dragon Sect, and directly met with the Sect Master and the other three elders.
He saw that this Ling Yun Fan, who had only been in the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Stage for less than half a month, had actually broken through to the profound practitioner realm from the ninth level of the Core Formation Stage. Not only did his entire body emit an even stronger aura than that of an ordinary practitioner at the first level of the profound practitioner realm.
”Disciple Ling Yunfan greets the sect master and several elders!”
Coming into the main hall, Ling Yunfan respectfully clasped his hands and bowed. Normally, people would kneel on one knee to pay their respects, but due to Lingyun's principles, he chose to bow.
Even so, Sect Master Xuan De Ao, who was seated at the very front, did not display any trace of displeasure. Instead, he nodded his head with a smile on his face.
However, aside from Elder Yun and the sect master, Bai Mu Bing and Elder Hong Xun showed a displeased expression on their faces. Bai Mu Bing said with a dutiful tone: ”You aren't kneeling in front of the sect master and elders, are you looking down on us?”
