Chu Yang took advantage of the night and rushed forward.
The direction: Ye Family territory!
Where Amethyst is dense, and blessings are abundant; when yin and yang harmonize, heaven and earth shine in unison!
Chu Yang went there for the sixth segment of the Nine Calamity Sword!
He could no longer wait to obtain the sixth segment of the Nine Calamity Sword and bring his brothers over!
His leather boots had long been lost somewhere, and he was running barefoot on the ground.
As he ran, the starlight illuminated the sky, and the earth stretched endlessly beneath his feet. Suddenly, Chu Yang felt as if he had entered a wondrous realm, and in an instant, he soared into the sky...
It seemed that he was flying in mid-air, wandering beneath the starlight, while on the ground ahead, he could clearly see another version of himself running wildly. The night wind that met him ruffled this 'other self's' hair, making 'him' look as if his clothes were fluttering wildly behind him...
As he ran, the vital energy within him circulated slowly, and he felt waves of pure earth energy rising from the soles of his feet, while streams of pure heaven and earth spiritual energy flowed down from the top of his head...
Up and down, forming a perfect cycle, circulating within his body before returning to the dantian.
In the dantian, the second strand of primordial silk also seemed to be trembling... slowly growing stronger.
His cultivation level, originally within him, was continuously being purified as the earth energy poured in...
He felt all his pores opened, with strands of mixed and impure vital energy gradually dispersing from his pores, replaced by pure heaven and earth spiritual energy...
Countless impurities from within his body were expelled through his pores, dissipating in the wind...
Only the oil remained, clinging to the surface of his body, instantly dried by the wind...
Watching himself run, witnessing the changes in his body was a marvelous phenomenon...
Chu Yang ran tirelessly throughout the night!
When the east began to brighten, his consciousness, under a wave of fatigue, finally returned to his body. Chu Yang stopped in a grove and leaped to the treetops to rest for a moment.
His cultivation level had already transformed one-tenth into pure 'earth energy'.
This one-tenth settled at the center of his dantian, surrounding the Nine Calamity Sword. The other 'heaven and earth spiritual energy' filled his body.
"When all this heaven and earth spiritual energy transforms into pure power made of earth energy, I should be able to reach supreme fourth rank or fifth rank, right?"
Chu Yang contemplated as he examined his body.
After advancing to the supreme level, every step he took felt increasingly arduous. If going from ninth rank saint level to supreme required just one step, then from supreme first rank to supreme second tier at least required ten steps.
Moreover, each of these ten steps faced greater resistance than before!
One can imagine how formidable the resistance will be when moving from second rank to third rank!
"No matter how many challenges there are, I am already on this path!" Chu Yang thought, entering a state of meditation.
He couldn't see his own appearance now, but if he did, he would surely be shocked.
His hair was a disheveled mess, stuck to his scalp, and his face and neck were covered in dark grease, rendering him unrecognizable. His black robe was already tattered...
...
Outside the forest, shouts rang out. Sword light flashed.
Chu Yang suddenly woke up and looked outside.
He saw a figure rushing towards him like the wind, with a shining sword light behind him, akin to a meteoric flash, chasing closely.
This figure was clearly much faster than the one in front.
Just looking at the sword light made Chu Yang's heart tremble!
Supreme of swords!
And it was high-tier, at least third tier!
How could a supreme of swords suddenly appear here? Who was he?
The sharp sword aura made Chu Yang almost think it was Gu Duxing coming!
The figure ahead let out a roar, and suddenly a burst of starlight exploded from his body. Then, his body accelerated abruptly and dashed into the dense forest like a whirlwind!
