Ancient Sky Fiend - Chapter 38

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

For this breakthrough, Yun Shu had been preparing for a long time. He had asked Su Lingwen about all the possible problems that he could encounter when trying to cross the threshold and had the solutions ready.

With the many Fine pills in stock, Yun Shu was very confident. Sitting with his legs crossed, he closed his eyes and went into meditation.

The flowing Spirit Qi in his meridians started moving slower and slower; in the end, it completely stopped. His body was now like a stagnant pool.

If someone was here right now, the person would have noticed that the flow of Yun Shu’s Spirit Qi had utterly disappeared. And if that person closed his eyes, he would not be able to sense Yun Shu’s presence at all.

At this time, Yun Shu gently released a long breath and put one of the Fine pills in his mouth. It instantly melted in his mouth as pure Spirit Qi nurtured his body.

However, nothing happened next, so Yun Shu kept taking the pills.

Two, three…

Finally, when Yun Shu put the twenty-eighth pill in his mouth, the Spirit Qi in his body suddenly started boiling. This was what he wanted!

This was his first time ever in his life that Yun Shu felt his Spirit Qi so abundant. It was so rich that Yun Shu’s meridians started swelling, threatening to overflow.

At this time, Yun Shu started to direct the Spirit Qi back into his dantian. And when it came to controlling Spirit Qi, he was qualified to be called a master!

Therefore, he kept a tight rein on that plentiful Qi. Pulled by Yun Shu, it gushed into Yun Shu’s dantian, gathering there and getting thicker and thicker with each second.

Bang!

At last, the anticipated transformation happened!

Within his dantian, a Qi cluster formed. And it gradually grew bigger and bigger. When the Spirit Qi in Yun Shu’s body ultimately settled, that Qi cluster had grown into the size of a fist.

At this moment, a beam of light, brighter than ever before, rushed out of Yun Shu’s body and lit up the entire space.

Finally, Yun Shu had reached the Aqua Sky Realm!

Yun Shu kept his eyes closed and saw the accumulated Spirit Qi, or to be more specific, the accumulated Qi in liquid form in his dantian. He was a bit surprised.

According to the book he once read, when Spirit Water first accumulated after the Aqua Sky Realm had been reached, its size should be about a soybean, or up to the size of a fava bean. However, his was way too abnormal. It was as big as a fist!

Having this question in mind, Yun Shu ignored the rice-grain-sized crystal in the center of his Spirit Water. The crystal also came from the Spirit Qi—to be exact, a small part of the Spirit Qi that had been solidified.

Yun Shu felt a bit worried, so he decided to go and talk to Su Lingwen.

Su Lingwen knew that Yun Shu was going to make his breakthrough today, so she had been waiting for him. She didn’t feel worried at all since she had firm faith in him. After all, he was a prodigy, unlike she had ever seen before!

Seeing Yun Shu walking to her, Su Lingwen simply nodded to him.

“Lingwen, when someone first reaches the Aqua Sky Realm, how big should the Spirit Water usually be?” Yun Shu asked directly, without mincing his words.

Su Lingwen replied, “It depends. Mostly, it should be about the size of a soybean. If it’s bigger, like the size of a fava bean, that’s quite something.”

Yun Shu nodded. He was indeed correct in his thinking.

“Then what about yours?” Yun Shu asked.

“Mine? About the size of a haw.” Su Lingwen was quite proud of her achievement, unaware that this pride was going to be crushed once again.

“Yours?” She smiled and asked Yun Shu.

“About… the size of a fist,” answered Yun Shu honestly.

Su Lingwen was made speechless, too dumbstruck to voice any words.

She shouldn’t have asked.

Her self-esteem was defeated one more time.

“Something wrong?” Yun Shu was quite concerned.

Su Lingwen took a deep breath and said, “A fight will tell you the answer.”

And then, she picked up her wooden sword and wielded it.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The powerful Qi stirred up a cloud of dust and dirt from the ground and instantly hid their bodies within. After a while, the dust finally settled down, and their figures were revealed.

The stick in Yun Shu’s hand had been snapped, but Su Lingwen’s wooden sword remained intact. It seemed that Yun Shu was defeated again!

“How was it?” asked Yun Shu.

“That was more than two hundred moves. What more do you want?” Su Lingwen didn’t look too happy.

“You restrained yourself,” said Yun Shu, slightly frowning.

Su Lingwen wanted to say something but stopped herself.

In fact, she hadn’t restrained herself at all. That was her whole strength, the ninth level of Aqua Sky Realm at full display.

However, she felt embarrassed telling Yun Shu that.

“I’m smart. Don’t make such a fuss,” she said word by word.

Yun Shu didn’t know the truth, so he didn’t harp on the topic.

“Then, it’s time to take it further…” he murmured to himself.

“What do you mean?”

Yun Shu smiled. “I’m going deep into the valley. I’m afraid I won’t be able to take care of you for a while.”

“You are…” Su Lingwen was surprised.

“Right! I’m going there to take a look!” Yun Shu was quite excited.

“But… Do you remember the Qi coming out from that place?! It might be dangerous!” Su Lingwen exclaimed.

“It’s okay. I know how to stay safe!” Yun Shu just gave a smile off-handedly.

He was so confident because he had that world behind the stone gate.

Seeing that Yun Shu had made up his mind, Su Lingwen finally nodded. “Okay. But stay cautious. Come back immediately if there’s something wrong.”

“I will.” Yun Shu nodded. Then he handed the Fine-grade pills to Su Lingwen.

“You keep them. After all, you’re going to that dangerous place, so you need them more than I do.” Su Lingwen wouldn’t accept them, however.

“Don’t worry. I can always make more.” Yun Shu insisted.

Su Lingwen finally nodded and accepted the pills.
