Yan Yu thought that the master and disciple were cultivating together.

When a master and their disciple are together, if they’re not cultivating, what else can they be doing?!

But then, why would cultivation require a change of clothes?

Besides, under her perception, she could only say...

She could see everything she was supposed to see.

And in... ultra high definition!

As a professionally trained Empress’s Personal Guard, even when faced with such a scene, her emotions didn’t fluctuate in the slightest.

Like a wooden doll.

Perhaps in her eyes, it was nothing more than... worms wriggling!

Her sole mission from start to finish was to protect Qin Yu from any harm.

Still, she’d never seen this kind of cultivation method before, so she was a bit curious.

Thus, she watched very closely.

The master seemed to be in pain, maybe because he was being overrun by his disciple.

No master could remain indifferent when a disciple dares to act out of line.

So, Yan Yu took out a little notebook and made a note of this incident.

Disciple bullying master!

No, that’s not right.

Upon closer inspection, she also noticed that Qin Yu’s master’s expression seemed to hold a trace of... joy she couldn’t quite comprehend?

This left the Flame Guard’s brain a bit scrambled.

Could it be that this master and disciple are cultivating... some kind of improper cultivation technique?!

Could it be demonic arts?!

At this thought, Yan Yu’s expression grew cold. If Qin Yu was cultivating demonic arts, that was absolutely forbidden—even if he was of great significance to the entire Immortal Country.

But she didn’t act rashly, instead sensing carefully again, and found no trace of evil aura on the master and disciple, in fact...

There wasn’t even any Spiritual Qi fluctuation.

No matter how you looked at it, it didn’t resemble cultivating.

It actually looked more like...

A fight between mortals?

”They’re both cultivators, so why are they fighting without using Spiritual Power?”

Yan Yu was thoroughly confused.

And why was the master getting bullied by the disciple?!

Could it be she couldn’t win?

But clearly, the master is at Golden Core Peak, and the disciple is only at early-stage Golden Core.

Just as she was pondering, the disciple got suppressed by the master.

This made her tense, but upon sensing that Liu Zixiao hadn’t harmed Qin Yu, she stayed put.

She jotted it down again in her little notebook, planning to ask Guard Captain Sis about it when she had a chance.

Otherwise, if Her Majesty the Empress asks about Qin Yu’s cultivation, she wouldn’t even know how to answer.

The episode lasted nearly three hours.

After observing, Yan Yu seemed to have gained some insight.

This might actually be... Body Refinement!

There were body cultivators in the Imperial Palace, but their intensity was way beyond this.

Besides, the master’s physique was clearly inferior to the disciple’s.

Soon enough, she saw the master fall deeply asleep, exhausted.

Night had fallen; things seemed to have settled down.

At this moment, she noticed Qin Yu sat up cross-legged.

Inside the room.

Qin Yu was preparing to use his Flame Points.

No way he could make a breakthrough on the flying ship, right?

He calmed his mind, focusing on the flame.

The flame’s color had darkened.

As if... this was a change from purifying the baleful energy.

Also, the deeper the color, the clearer it appeared. In Qin Yu’s perception, it looked less and less like an ordinary flame.

Instead, it resembled complex, densely packed runes.

Just watching made Qin Yu inexplicably peaceful, entering a state of neither joy nor sorrow.

This was a state very suited to Enlightenment.

Qin Yu could easily comprehend the Star Prison Array, yet he couldn’t figure out even a single rune on the flame.

Yet, he had a faint feeling.

Even a single rune contained mountains of information.

This was the real reason it was so hard to fathom.

Perhaps, only with enough Flame Points could these runes be deciphered one by one.

Qin Yu focused his attention on the information above the flame.

[Flame Points: 104679]

[Root Bone: Top Grade Spirit Bone (Flame Points 104679/100000) Can Breakthrough]

[Spiritual Power: Refining-Stage, Middle Tier (Flame Points 104679/50000) Can Breakthrough]

Thinking it over, Qin Yu decided to upgrade his Root Bone first, to see if any opportunities would arise from it.

Back then, Su Xiyue had condensed her Golden Core in one go during a certain transformation of her Root Bone.

”Breakthrough!”

[Flame Points: 4679]

As the Flame Points were deducted, in Qin Yu’s perception, he saw sparks detach from the flame.

No, that wasn’t sparks, but rather... runes.

It was as if a grand star-shower fell within him, soaking into his flesh, bones, organs... even every cell.

Merging with him.

And in that instant, a wave of Dao Rhyme rippled from Qin Yu’s body.

It caused him to resonate subtly with the Heaven and Earth around him, as if he was no longer an isolated being, but an inseparable part of this world.

And in that moment, in Qin Yu’s perception, Heaven and Earth didn’t just contain Spiritual Qi.

The world became even clearer; he even seemed to perceive faint, subtle... oscillations.

That was the Dao.

Qin Yu’s entire mind was immersed in this brand new experience.

Next door.

Yan Yu, still closely monitoring Qin Yu, suddenly noticed a wave of Dao Rhyme spreading from his body.

”Dao Bone!”

As a Flame Guard, there’s no way she’d mistake this.

And this Dao Rhyme, weak at first, then gradually strengthening and stabilizing.

This transformation made Yan Yu puzzled inside.

Why such a change?

She didn’t understand—it felt as if a person without Dao Bone suddenly acquired one.

Wait a minute.

Although something on Qin Yu was suppressing his Qi Mechanism, Yan Yu was an Empress’s Personal Guard, trained precisely for perception.

Even without direct contact, while she couldn’t tell exactly what Qin Yu’s Root Bone was, Dao Bone and Spirit Bone were clearly distinct.

She couldn’t sense the fluctuation on his body, but she could sense the shift in Heaven and Earth around him.

Dao Bone cultivators always carry a faint resonance with the world—a sign of harmonizing with their surroundings.

Yet a moment ago, Qin Yu absolutely did not have this resonance!

This, Yan Yu was sure of.

There were even many rumors about Qin Yu’s Root Bone, but it seemed only a Middle Grade Spirit Bone.

Maybe there was some concealment, but it was still definitely within the Spirit Bone range.

And now, for no reason, he suddenly emanated Dao Rhyme.

And just now, he’d only... undergone some Body Refinement with his master?

And it was only mild, at that.

Could it be that such behavior could upgrade Root Bone?

Impossible.

Root Bone is innate!

There’s absolutely no possibility of post-natal improvement here.

This, she was sure of.

Even if what happened to Qin Yu confused Yan Yu, it also confirmed one thing for her.

Qin Yu... possessed Dao Bone.

But judging by the faint resonance, it was probably only a Lower Grade Dao Bone?

So, she quietly made a note and decided she’d report this situation to Her Majesty the Empress.
