Strictly speaking, only when the Ren and Du meridians are unblocked can one be considered a true cultivator. When the two vessels are connected, the inner force becomes vigorous and powerful. Plucking flowers and flying leaves, killing from a hundred paces away, this is what the azure-robed assassin was capable of, as was Seventeen. Of course, that azure-robed assassin had only just entered the Bone Sacrifice Realm, without even sacrificing a complete bone - otherwise he wouldn't have been killed so easily by Ethan.Beyond the Bone Sacrifice Realm, the difference in the Ascending to the Peak Realm is even greater. Usually even an early stage Ascending to the Peak expert can crush a horde of Bone Sacrifice masters. Why?Because the Ascending to the Peak warriors have ignited their Mind Lamps, which are their core. As long as the Mind Lamp is not extinguished, they cannot die. Just imagine, a late stage Bone Sacrifice cultivator versus an early stage Ascending to the Peak cultivator in
She wore a sky blue pleated skirt, with long hair cascading to her waist. Her slender waist could be grasped with one hand and her retreating figure was graceful.Clearly, this was an extremely beautiful woman. Passersby around her stopped and stared, with high head-turning rates. One young man had already walked past but kept turning his head back three times. Distracted, his head hit the wall with a thud. He yelped in pain, clutching his head, drawing laughter from onlookers. Ethan watched silently without a word.Though the streets of Hampshire County were not too crowded in the early morning, traffic was now blocked. Pedestrians stopped to gawk, with the men's eyes dazed, oblivious even as drool dripped down their chins. The women pouted resentfully or bowed their heads low, avoiding the beauty's gaze as they hurried by, self-abased by the comparison.The morning rays shone on the locks tumbling to the beauty's waist, shimmering with a hazy golden glow that dazzled the eye.Sudde
Ethan was almost certain that this woman was Jasmine. Her face was unchanged and her gentle nature still intact.Legend has it that some disciples who have Ascended to the Peak are able to alter their appearances. However, no matter how one's looks may change, their temperament remains constant through life.Compared to when they first met in the Beyond Heaven realm, Jasmine now looked even more beautiful - a stunning, breathtaking beauty that made one suffocate. Back in the sparse Beyond Heaven dimension, she was always on guard, engaged in killing, and lacked material goods. But now, her gentle and pitiable aura had fully blossomed.This was the wonder of the Creator.Jasmine's eyes briefly scanned the grand hall. Seeing the numerous gazes focused upon her, she was somewhat bewildered at first. Then she noticed the empty seats at Ethan's table and hesitated for a moment, as if plucking up courage, before slowly making her way over.Swish -Jasmine's back was followed by numerous ard
Two months later, deep within the Extreme North Icefield."Hooo~"Snow swirled heavily, the entire sky and earth a single hue of white.In the Extreme North Icefield of the Western Realms, there was only one season - winter.The downy snowflakes never ceased as the north winds howled. In such a place, humans were rarely seen. Occasionally, someone or a beast spirit would tread through the great snow mountain, leaving deep footprints in the snow. But in the blink of an eye, those prints would be completely buried by the falling flakes.The snowy vista was vast and boundless. Strictly speaking, this area was not yet the innermost depths of the Extreme North Icefield. Legend said the core was a world of ice crystals, perilous even for Meridian Training realm experts - one careless misstep could lead to freezing to death!Although not the furthest interior, this place was close.Ethan had left his Iron-Horned Horse in a nearby county town. A frigid environment like this was too harsh, bey
The snowy mountains stretched endlessly. The recess on the mountainside was like a harbor in the storm.A faint, intoxicating fragrance entered the heart. Soft jade and warmth in his arms, Ethan felt extremely thirsty, his breathing clearly heavier as he kept swallowing, eyes somewhat chaotic.Time seemed to stand still, the scene romantic like a painting.Snow mountain, wilderness, beauty.Time flowed by.At a certain moment, Jasmine, who had been resting quietly against Ethan's chest with lowered head, suddenly showed a hint of panic. After a while, as if recalling something, terror grew in her eyes as she exclaimed, "There's a snake!"Ethan made a soft sound of surprise and glanced around the cave - he could see everything clearly inside but was puzzled. "Where's the snake?"Jasmine's pretty face instantly paled. Her jade body shifted as her slender finger pointed at Ethan's lower body, stammering, "You...you have a snake in your pocket..."As Jasmine moved her delicate body slight
If Jasmine wasn't the blue blood person, then who exactly was she?Ethan pondered.Ethan had an instinctive feeling that Jasmine's strength was formidable, just a sense, an unfounded intuition. After all, Jasmine usually didn't reveal any aura around him, seeming ordinary.Yet Ethan had this feeling, he even felt...Jasmine was highly likely to have already broken through to the Bone Sacrifice Realm!However, it would be inappropriate to directly ask about this. Moreover, he hadn't seen Jasmine make many moves during their journey.A Bone Sacrifice expert! Unless Ethan utilized his final trump card, the Fountain of Time, he was not confident of winning."What's wrong?" Jasmine curiously pushed Ethan, asking."Nothing." Ethan smiled. "Let's go, search for that Grade Seven Water Spirit Flower.""Mm." Jasmine nodded gently, releasing the fish in her hands and following behind Ethan.Continuing forward, neither utilized any lightness techniques, just slowly walking at an unhurried pace.Af
Ethan and the White Ring Snake immediately engaged in a fierce battle.In terms of speed, the White Ring Snake was extremely quick, comparable to Ethan. It was difficult to determine who was faster. Ethan slashed his blade towards the snake, but it seemed to dodge his strikes before they landed, as if it could predict the future.Ethan was getting impatient. Their speed was evenly matched, but the White Ring Snake's defense was poor. Ethan believed that if he could land one strike, he could surely cut the snake in two.But he just couldn't hit it!Whoosh!The two Ethan clones rushed over in an instant, surrounding the White Ring Snake in the middle. The three Ethans simultaneously attacked with their blades...Whoosh!The flashing blades sliced through the air as the White Ring Snake nimbly darted between them like lightning. But after a moment, even the snake was struggling to withstand the onslaught.Facing three blades at once for a short period was taxing, even for the agile serpe
"Hmm?"Ethan sensed something and glanced sideways.Several hundred yards away, the White Ring Snake was coiled atop the icy surface, head raised warily as it stared in their direction—clearly reluctant to relinquish the Lake Heartfruit."Heh, this White Ring Snake is interesting," Ethan chuckled, then covertly observed the serpent while pretending nothing was amiss."It...it still hasn't left?" Jasmine also noticed the lurking snake. Apprehension filled her beautiful eyes as she stuttered."Better that it hasn't." Ethan smiled faintly. "Otherwise, with no guide in this vast Extreme North Icefield, who knows how long it would take us to find the Grade Seven Water Spirit Flower?"Ethan was unconcerned. The White Ring Snake's venom was irksome, but with precautions, it posed no threat. Most crucial was its guidance.The Western Realms' Extreme North Icefield spanned over ten thousand miles. Even a Meridian Training cultivator would struggle to fully explore such vastness in a decade, le
