As he left the cultivation room, Qingyi glanced briefly at his status
screen.
The price to improve his cultivation and mana manipulation had increased as usual, but it was less than he had expected.
Not that it would change much.
With his current power, after his breakthrough, he was absolutely certain: he would not need to bow his head to anyone while he was in the Immortal Heavens.
Sighing heavily, Qingyi walked through Meilin’s mansion.
He arrived at the door of her spacious and luxurious bedroom, from where he could hear dozens of excited whispers.
[You can’t come in, go find something else to do.] Ruxue’s voice echoed in Qingyi’s mind.
From the tone of her voice, they seemed to be choosing Meilin’s dress, or at least dealing with something important that he couldn’t know about yet.
With a slight grunt, he simply left the mansion and flew a few meters off the ground before being swallowed up by a spatial fold.
When Qingyi reappeared, he was hundreds of kilometers away from the capital, hovering over a vast, endless forest.
“System, how many days have passed since I began my breakthrough? Qingyi asked, stretching.
Judging by the position of the sun, it should have been more than a day.
However, most of the time he had been cultivating was inside his sea of consciousness, where time passed hundreds of times slower.
It shouldn’t have been that long.
[About three days. The host’s perception of time must have been affected during the breakthrough to the Ancestral Emperor Realm.] “Hm…” Qingyi didn’t think much about it.
For now, he just wanted to test his new powers.
The Heaven-Defying Thunder Sword was with Ruxue, so he had to take one from his spatial ring.
It was a simple, long, sharp saber.
Qingyi paused for a moment, preparing his Qi.
As he called upon his domain, all of his types of Qi spread out around
him, causing the forest around him to change beyond recognition.
Qingyi reached out his hand toward the ground, and a stone flew toward him.
Pointing toward the edge of his domain, he threw the stone.
It flew at a terrifying speed, hitting the end of the domain with a powerful crash.
In addition to being a region under Qingyi’s complete control, his domain also seemed to be able to prevent enemies from escaping. The young man was ready to move his sword and test the power of his domain in the real world. However, he soon stopped, turning his
head.
In the distance, he could sense someone approaching at an absurd speed, with a powerful aura falling upon him.
“Astral Body Realm…” He grunted, retracting his domain and preparing himself.
After a few seconds, the figure finally appeared.
It was an old man, looking like someone in his sixties or seventies. He had a long white beard and carried an elegant saber at his waist. “Oh… Calm down, young man! I don’t want any trouble, hahaha.” The old man smiled, stopping about a hundred meters away from Qingyi. “I was traveling towards the capital when I sensed a powerful Qi. I was just curious.”
“Hm…” Qingyi didn’t respond immediately, his eyes analyzing the old
man.
He was clearly at the peak of the Astral Body Realm. His power was so restrained that even using his draconic eyes, Qingyi was not even able to discern the lines of Qi running through his body.
Fortunately, he did not seem to have any malicious intent towards Qingyi.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Qingyi simply clasped his fists.
“This is Long Qingyi, senior. I apologize if I startled you.”
“Oh, you didn’t startle me, don’t worry!” The old man shook his head, his hand sliding away from his saber.
“I’m just a little confused. It’s been many years since I’ve set foot in the imperial capital, and I really don’t remember a genius like you
here.
With your level of power, I highly doubt it’s something that could go unnoticed, right? Tell me, are you one of the new Five Dragons and Nine Phoenixes?”
Qingyi couldn’t help but be confused by the old man’s words.
Five Dragons and Nine Phoenixes? What the hell was that old man
talking about?
“Uh? You don’t know? The rank of the greatest talents in the imperial capital!” The old man exclaimed, looking at Qingyi with even more
strangeness.
“You know, I myself was one of them during my youth. My son-in-law’s eldest son is actually the strongest among the current Five Dragons!”
Hearing that, Qingyi thought for a moment.
While walking with Meilin through the city, he had indeed heard someone say something about dragons and phoenixes, but nothing he
had paid much attention to.
So that was what the old man was talking about.
“Actually, I’m new to the capital,” Qingyi replied honestly. “I’ve been here less than a week and only came to see my father-in-law.” “Oh… I see!” The old man nodded, thinking for a moment. “I’ve been away from the capital for about three years. I’m here to see my son-in-law too. Why don’t you accompany me? I can provide you with a good drink, it’s rare to find young talents like you around here.”
Qingyi thought about that proposal for a long moment.
He just wanted to train a little and test his power, but in the end, accompanying this old man might not be so bad.
Eventually, he could just ask for a friendly duel.
It was much better to train with an expert like this old man than to punch trees and cast his domain on nothing.
