Chapter 137 Advance Illusory Stage (2/2)
While his eyes peered outside, his five fingers slowly tightened into a fist.
“Wu Huang, let’s fully settle the grudge between us in the Saint Remains Domain.”
...
After ascending to the advance Illusory stage, the first thing Zhou Yuan did was find Yaoyao.
“You’ve broken through?”
The latter immediately asked upon seeing him. When she saw Zhou Yuan nod, she too nodded as a slight smile emerged on her lips. “Only when one knows shame can one truly display one’s power and courage. Not bad.”
She was clearly referring to yesterday’s event when they met Wu Huang. Zhou Yuan had turned that pressure into motivation for his breakthrough.
Zhou Yuan grinned and said, “Can you teach me grade 3 Genesis Runes today?”
The Saint Remains Domain was about to open so he needed to make use of what little time he had to learn a few grade 3 Genesis Runes. Only then would he have some insurance when he entered the Saint Remains Domain.
“Good idea, I can avoid those two dragging me out to window shop.” Yaoyao lazily stretched her back. She was really somewhat helpless with regards to the situation. Luluo had already been too energetic, and now, there was another Zuoqiu Qingyu who looked at Yaoyao in a strange manner. To the peace loving Yaoyao, their attention was practically akin to torture.
Thus, the two found a quiet room and began to practice grade 3 Genesis Runes.
The lesson went on all the way from the early morning till the sun was setting in the sky.
Yaoyao rubbed Tuntun as she said to Zhou Yuan, “You should now have some elementary understanding of these few grade 3 Genesis Runes. However, you still require a tremendous amount of practice in order to successfully utilise them.”
Zhou Yuan nodded. “I will master them as soon as possible.”
Yaoyao’s bright eyes looked towards Zhou Yuan. “Looks like Wu Huang has given you a substantial amount of pressure.”
Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded, not denying it. “He indeed stronger than me. I need to raise my strength.”
Yaoyao touched her cheek with one hand as the slender fingers of her other hand tapped the table. “Wu Huang is indeed a remarkable person.”
After yesterday’s encounter, even Yaoyao with her high standards had judged that Wu Huang was considerably outstanding amongst the younger generation.
Although he was arrogant, he had the ability to back up his pride.
“However…”
Yaoya suddenly paused, staring at Zhou Yuan as she said, “His life has been smooth sailing since young, his triumphs and rapid progress naturally making him arrogant.”
“But from what I can see, compared to him, the you that broke free from your hopeless situation and never felt inferior as you earnestly worked hard to move forward, is even more outstanding than him.”
Zhou Yuan was taken aback, a smile involuntarily forming on his face. “Are you praising me?”
This was far too rare. Given Yaoyao’s standards, Zhou Yuan had never seen her praise in such a tone.
Yaoyao’s red lips lifted slightly. “It can be considered praise.”
Zhou Yuan nodded. “Thank you.”
Burning battle intent rose in his eyes. Like Yaoyao had said, Wu Huang’s strength originated from the smooth road king Wu had paved for him, an easy road of triumphant progress.
On the other hand, he had to face despair since young. His eight meridian channels had been nowhere to be found, making it impossible for him to cultivate.
He had ultimately created his own path through these tribulations one step at a time.
He had never felt that he was any less a person than Wu Huang.
Zhou Yuan took in a deep breath, calming the emotions in his heart. In the next instant however, their expressions suddenly changed slightly as they stood up and cast their gazes at the sky outside Saint Remains City.
At this current time, six shooting star like objects were streaking past the horizon as vast and indescribably mighty auras filled the land, enveloping the entire city.
The Genesis Rune boundary above Saint Remains City began to open at this moment.
A powerful voice rang out across the entire city.
“Saint Remains City, Xiao Tianluo , respectfully welcomes the envoys of the six sacred sects!”
