“Boom~”
“Thank you, Shishu!”
Accompanied by the sound of the stone gate slowly descending, Liu Yu stood inside the cave dwelling, bowing in gratitude towards the outside, his figure gradually disappearing.
Looking at the gradually vanishing Liu Yu, Heavenly Wind Ancestor displayed a complex expression.
Although there was more than one fourth-stage cave dwelling at the beginning of the establishment of Heavenly Peak, only a few people in the entire Yuan Yang Sect could enjoy such benefits.
Li Changfeng was one of them; he had high hopes for him, but unfortunately…
“I can’t hold on for much longer, I hope Qingyang can succeed this time.”
After standing for a long time, Heavenly Wind Ancestor turned and left, his heart heavy with thoughts.
...
“What needed to be explained has now been explained.”
“What needed to be prepared has all been prepared; it’s time to formally challenge the bottleneck.”
Inside the fourth-stage cave dwelling, Liu Yu sat cross-legged but did not immediately begin his cultivation.
Instead, he carefully contemplated whether there were any omissions in his plans and reflected on the bits and pieces of the past.
His expression was neither sad nor happy, but completely calm.
Having cultivated to his current realm, Liu Yu’s hands were covered in blood, yet at this moment, he felt not an ounce of regret.
If heaven has feelings, then heaven also grows old; the heavenly dao is impartial and fair!
In the eyes of the “heavenly dao” and the “dao,” perhaps all things are treated equally; the law of nature where the weak are preyed upon by the strong is nothing but a commonplace matter.
The heavenly dao certainly does not favor either side; any killings produce consequences, and there is no difference between humans and demonic beasts.
Thus, despite his hands being stained with blood, Liu Yu did not worry that the heavenly tribulation for the yuan infant would intensify because of it.
His recollections of the past were not for repentance over certain actions but merely to confirm that he had made the right choices, with a clear conscience.
A thousand cultivators have a thousand views.
In the eyes of the sect disciples, Liu Yu was the powerful and tough Elder Qingyang.
In the eyes of the Golden Core Elders, he was a surprising and shrewd Qingyangzi, a dao that is inscrutable!
In the hearts of many loose cultivators, he was a notorious devil, committing all kinds of evils.
Yet in the hearts of certain female cultivators, he was a great hero, always able to calmly solve one difficulty after another.
But for Liu Yu, walking on his own path made the opinions of others insignificant.
He closed his eyes, and the memories of two hundred seventy-one years swiftly flickered through his mind like fleeting shadows.
Ripples appeared in the lake of his heart, but eventually, they all returned to calm.
Liu Yu couldn't ensure that every choice he made was correct, but at least he had no regrets and no regrets.
A quarter of an hour later, he suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with tranquility and indifference.
Both body refinement and qi refinement had reached the pinnacle of the third stage, to the point where there was no further progression possible; under such circumstances, taking elixirs would be of no use.
His Primordial Spirit was infinitely close to the nascent soul stage, and there was still some room for improvement.
Thoughts arose and fell in his mind, ultimately returning to calm, and Liu Yu immediately began to operate his cultivation technique to refine his magical power.
Although his cultivation level had no room for improvement, the purity of his magical power could still be enhanced further, which would affect the final probability of conception.
Regarding the Primordial Spirit, through cultivating the “art of spirit preservation” and consuming various spiritual objects, it was also possible to formally reach the nascent soul level.
“Whoosh~”
As Liu Yu began to cultivate, this cave dwelling at the peak of Heavenly Peak was filled with a rising wind and clouds, with the surrounding spiritual energy being drawn in like a tide.
