Lou Mu Yan cultivated in the eighth chamber and didn’t know what was occurring outside.
On a floating island.
In the central room of the Spiritual Force Gathering Array, a man was treating his injuries when there was a sudden knock at the door.
“Come in.” His voice was like ten-thousand-year ice and carried with it an unhappiness.
A pupil quickly walked in and said: “Boss, that woman named Lou Mu Yan broke the shackles of the eighth chamber of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace and successfully surpassed Qi Ran.”
“What? You mean that woman stepped into the eighth chamber of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace to comprehend and cultivate?” The man asked in surprise.
“Yes. Now it’s been spread wildly throughout the entire Inner Sect. The other pupils and I also went to see it in person. Her name is indeed engraved on the record wall of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace in supervising hall.” That pupil nodded. Even now he still had a look of disbelief.
“Is she going to participate in the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects this time?” The man asked after pondering.
“She should have a predetermined place and she at least will represent the Talisman School.” The pupil paused, then did a motion of slicing the neck, asking tentatively: “Boss, she offended you before. Should we take the advantage, before she has grown, to kill her?”
The man’s gaze grew even colder, “Idiot, the stronger she is now, the better it is for us.”
“Didn’t she rob you of your Heavy Water? Why is it that the stronger she is the better for us?” The pupil touched his head and asked in confusion.
“The Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects is related to the quota for the Land of Inheritance. My ranking on the Rising Soul Stele is only eight. If the quota is too small, I may not be able to obtain a spot. If Lou Mu Yan participates in the Grand Competition, it’s naturally the stronger the better. It would be best if she could win a few more places.”
Then, the man clutched his chest and said sullenly: “But I won’t let go of the fact that she snatched my Heavy Water. After she participates in the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects, I will find a chance to end her when she returns.”
The pupil felt a chill on his back and he smiled to cater to him, “Boss is wise.”
Their Boss was like a lurking venomous serpent. When one should be used, they would be used, and when he needed to act he wouldn’t be vague. It was very miserable to deal with such a person and he couldn’t help but sympathise with Lou Mu Yan.
In a deep forested mountain in the Eight Extremes Sect, a burly man with two huge axes crushed the Communication Talisman he received and after a while, he murmured to himself: “Someone actually successfully entered the eighth chamber. It seems that those so-called shackles aren’t unbreakable. I should return.”
On a floating island of the Eight Extremes Sect, a beautiful woman teased a colourful parrot as she leaned on her fist.
“Young Miss, this servant has verified that the woman named Lou Mu Yan has indeed entered the eighth chamber of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace to cultivate.” A delicate and pretty woman greeted the beautiful woman above.
The beautiful woman’s eyes narrowed, and she chuckled: “I heard that Qi Ran is also in the Metal Elemental Underground Palace?”
“Yes, not only is Young Master Qi there, but now he is also trying to use Lou Mu Yan’s method to challenge the eighth chamber.”
“Go and get a copy of Lou Mu Yan’s image array of how she entered the eighth chamber. I sure want to see what method she used to succeed.” The woman instructed lightly, but her tone contained a force that didn’t allow objection.
“Yes, this servant will do it now.”
After the attendant left, the woman hooked the parrot’s chin with her tender fingertips and sneered: “Lou Mu Yan? I want to see if you’ll make a comeback in the Grand Competition of the Six Major Sects.”
She and Jin Se had always been at odds. Upon hearing that this Lou Mu Yan and Jin Se had a good relationship, although they hadn’t met yet, but she already hated Lou Mu Yan.
In a palace, a man with a feminine appearance…
Since the news that Lou Mu Yan entered the eighth chamber to cultivate spread, similar scenes occurred in many places.
Among the top ten people on the Rising Soul Stele, aside from Qi Ran who displayed kindness to Lou Mu Yan, the attitudes of the other nine people were unknown. However, two of them definitely held a hostile attitude.
Lou Mu Yan didn’t know that she had inexplicably offended two leading figures in the Inner Sect. At this time, she had comprehended the Metal Elemental Law in the Elemental Underground Palace to Great Achievement’s peak.
But since she reached the peak of Great Achievement, she hadn’t made any progress even if she challenged and broke through the limits again and again.
She opened her eyes that were like vast stars overflowing with the light of wisdom. This time, the harvest was quite big.
However, she wasn’t going to continue to cultivate here. If she wanted to break through the Great Achievement Realm comprehension, then she would probably need to go outside to find opportunities.
There wasn’t much time left to the Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition. She walked out of the Metal Elemental Underground Palace and went to the Water Elemental Underground Palace.
This time, it took her five days to enter the fifth chamber of the Water Elemental Underground palace, and this incident was also widely spread.
“Fuck, that Lou Mu Yan’s simply not human.”
“What’s wrong? She only entered the fifth chamber of the Water Elemental Underground Palace to cultivate and used quite a bit of time, not as abnormally monstrous as when she was in the Metal Elemental Underground Palace.”
“What do you know? I heard that her fire and wood dual elements have already reached the Great Achievement Realm, then the Metal Element also reached the Great Achievement Realm. Most importantly, she’s even able to comprehend the water attribute element now.”
“Ah! She’s actually a genius with four elements.”
“I also heard that the several Headmasters almost fought each other to have her. She’s hot goods right now.”
“If it were me as Headmaster, a four attributes Sword Master, I’ll snatch too!”
“Which chamber do you all think she could comprehend to in the Water Elemental Underground Palace?”
“She wouldn’t also comprehend to the eighth chamber would she? Don’t scare me.”
“Who knows? Maybe a certain someone really has that ability.”
“I don’t believe it.”
“…”
Almost all the pupils of the Inner Sect were paying attention to the news of Lou Mu Yan and many people were having conflicting feelings as they looked forward to seeing whether Lou Mu Yan could break through chamber seven and above.
But what was disappointing was that after entering the sixth chamber to cultivate, Lou Mu Yan hadn’t moved at all, and didn’t leave the Water Elemental Underground Palace until the day before the gathering to leave for the Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition.
And the fact that she didn’t step into the seventh chamber and above also made many people relieved. If she could even step into the eighth chamber of the Water Elemental Underground Palace, it’d shock them too much.
After Lou Mu Yan returned to her courtyard, she just finished refining two batches of pills before receiving Ao Rong’s Communication Talisman.
“Elder Ao, do you have anything you want me for?” She opened the courtyard door and asked Ao Rong who was standing outside.
Ao Rong’s expression was unusually excited, “Come with me.”
Lou Mu Yan noticed that his emotions weren’t stable, but didn’t say much as she followed him without hesitation.
Ao Rong used a flying Magic Tool and carried her together, only stopping after arriving at a foggy mountain.
“There’s a wooden house at the top of the mountain. Someone wants to see you there. Go quickly.” Ao Rong said.
Lou Mu Yan furrowed her brows slightly and asked: “Who wants to see me?”
“The person who wants to see you is the most honourable person in the Eight Extremes Sect. It’s also your fortuitous opportunity that he could summon you to meet him. Little girl, you have to grasp onto it.” Ao Rong couldn’t say a lot, but he still couldn’t resist reminding.
Understanding flashed across Lou Mu Yan’s eyes and she smiled lightly: “Thank you Elder Ao, I understand.”
