After the Artifact Lineage Ancestor left, the Artifact Lineage Daoist stood up, his face flushed with anger, and roared,
“Tan Yun, you little bastard, you killed my grandson and now you want to take my life!”
“I, Fang Canghai, swear to break you into a thousand pieces!”
“Buzz!”
The space within the great hall trembled, and a tall, masked woman in black, appearing like a ghost, emerged. Her cold, emotionless eyes gazed at the Artifact Lineage Daoist as she respectfully said, “Master, what is your command?”
“Use every means to kill Shen Subing and Tan Yun…” The Artifact Lineage Daoist paused, “No! You lead your people, and when you see any disciples of the Meritorious Lineage, kill them!”
“Understood!” The black-clad woman called Shadowy Wraith vanished without a trace like a wisp of smoke.
At this moment, Fang Canghai was completely enraged!
He was also forced into a corner, having no choice but to deploy his death warriors to kill Tan Yun and Shen Subing, to report back to the Ancestral Patriarch!
The woman called Shadowy Wraith was precisely the leader of Fang Canghai’s death warriors, who were not disciples of the Huangfu Sacred Sect.
In Fang Canghai’s view, even if the death warriors were caught during the attempt to kill Shen Subing and Tan Yun, they would not trace back to him…
……
In the Meritorious Secret Realm, in the Meritorious Dojo.
Within the 108th layer of the Supreme Mustard Seed Time-Space Pagoda, Tan Yun sat cross-legged, performing the primordial chaos condensation technique, madly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
Previously, when Tan Yun participated in the alchemical arts grand competition within the Star Moon Time-Space Scroll, he had already touched the barrier of the sixth layer of the refining soul realm, and at this moment, he was making a full dash towards his breakthrough!
“Heaven and earth command the three souls, condense the soul shell!”
In his mind, the three souls deep in his consciousness separated into a group of light barriers, and after five days, the light barriers petrified like pure white eggshells.
“When the soul shells shatter, the three souls will appear.”
The three soul shells shattered simultaneously, and three phantoms of Tan Yun emerged, drilling out of his mind, entering the spirit pool in his brow, and burrowing into the sixth primordial fetal soul that was seated cross-legged.
Later, over a long period of time, Tan Yun separated strands of shadows from the heavenly surge soul, spiritual wisdom soul, power soul, central soul, essence soul, and heroic soul, refining them into the mind of the sixth primordial fetal soul.
As time passed, Tan Yun sat still like a stone sculpture.
When he had spent four years within the pagoda, suddenly, his hair flew up, and he emanated the aura of the sixth layer of the refining soul realm…
In the blink of an eye, six more years passed inside the tower, and a powerful aura surged forth from his body, causing the vast emptiness of the pagoda to manifest with intersecting space cracks!
It was evident that Tan Yun had stepped into the seventh layer of the refining soul realm. At this moment, he was still not cultivating the primordial chaos dominance body but continued to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, pushing for a breakthrough!
By the eighteenth year since he entered the pagoda, Tan Yun, who was sitting like a rock, suddenly opened his eyes, excitement overflowing!
“Buzz!”
Instantly, an incredibly powerful aura spread from his body, and in an instant, the space around him shattered like a colossal mirror, unable to withstand the onslaught of his aura, as if it would collapse at any moment!
“Not bad!” A charming yet domineering smile crept across Tan Yun's lips, “Who could have known that my aura at the eighth layer of the refining soul realm is already comparable to that of a cultivator at the first level of the divine soul realm!”
“Once I finish cultivating the primordial chaos dominance body, it should be no problem to defeat a cultivator at the second level of the divine soul realm!”
