Realms In The Firmament

The current problem was that Ye Xiao was too weak. He could only hinder the others in the fight. He totally couldn’t make any positive contribution. What was most likely to happen was that somebody would have to stay around and protect him because he was too weak. That would not be a good thing for the future.

One more thing, with or without Shuang and Han, Ye Xiao’s people were still not strong enough to destroy the three factions.

The three factions had dozens of thousand years of history. There were countless superior cultivators in the three sects. Every one of the three factions had tens of cultivators at the top of level nine of Dao Origin Stage.

That was after the war against Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade. There would be much more if they didn’t lose a lot of men in the fights.

Each of the three factions had thousands of Dao Origin Stage cultivators. After all, they were thoundands of years old sects. Ye Xiao and Li Wuliang were just two unaided individuals!

The three factions could at least exhaust them to death by sending out their top-class cultivators one by one.

It was undoubtedly a practical battle scheme. People who fought Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade in the wars were mostly level five or level six of Dao Origin Stage. They didn’t send lots of dominant figures to the battle.

However, they could surely defeat the dominant figures like Xiao Monarch and Fierce Blade as long as they send a group of top-class cultivators to lead a massive amount of ordinary disciples to fight.

After all, they had a long history to learn from!

One or two talented men’s gifted power was never enough to catch up with it!

Now that Ye Xiao had Shuang and Han, the two dominant figures, if he could make Cold Moon Palace his ally, which was very possible, it would be more promising. However, before everything began, the first thing he needed to do was to improve himself soon. That would bring a much bigger chance to win the war.

At least he couldn’t be the weakest part of the team!

The only way to improve himself fast was to go to that place!

Nothing except that place could help him. Not even his supreme dan beads.

It was too slow to raise his cultivation level by taking supreme dan beads!

It had to be that place, Heaven’s Terrace!

The three of them looked at each other. They all thought of it, but none of them wanted to say it.

”I guess you two are also thinking about the same idea as me. Heaven’s Terrace!” Ye Xiao blandly said.

”No! You can’t go there!” The two ladies strongly opposed to it. They kept shaking their heads and said, ”It is too dangerous!”

”What else do you have, except going to Heaven’s Terrace, to boost my cultivation?” Ye Xiao calmly said, ”Things will definitely go wrong if I keep wasting time. I guess it won’t be too long before my true identity gets exposed.”

The two ladies frowned and shook their heads. ”No way! Even if you are going to be exposed, you can’t go to that place knowing how dangerous it will be. You have the two of us here protecting you. You get exposed, so what?”

”It may be difficult to defeat you both at the same time. However, it won’t be too difficult to defeat you one after the other,” Ye Xiao spoke in a deep voice.

”No! It is not a positive situation. I get it. But we still have a chance to win. Do you understand what it means to go to Heaven’s Terrace? It is a place where most of the cultivators died when they were seeking for enhancement!” Yue Shuang kept shaking her head, with her hair waving like water. ”There are too few people who have succeeded in that place!”

”But… there is no other place in Qing-Yun Realm that can bring me up to my prime in a short time!”

Ye Xiao blandly said, ”Do you… Do you want me to take revenge after I spend hundreds of years to restore my power?”

Hundreds of years?

Yue Shuang and Yue Han lowered their heads, twisted their mouth, and grumbled.

He had reach level one of Dao Origin Stage after only a few years. That was incredibly fast. However, if he wanted to reach the top of level nine of Dao Origin Stage, it would take him several hundred more years!

That seemed to be unacceptably long.

It was long enough for a man to forget many things.

It was a struggle for the two ladies.

Heaven’s Terrace was too dangerous after all.

”I insist on going to Heaven’s Terrace because I have two powerful aids. With the two supports, I am sure I can reach Heaven’s Terrace and come back safely, whether I can succeed or not,” Ye Xiao slowly said.

”What are the two aids?” Yue Shuang and Yue Han were surprised.

”A hawk and a cat,” Ye Xiao calmly said.

The two ladies were awkwardly speechless instead of surprised.

They had seen the golden hawk.

[That hawk is definitely the best ride to get away from a battle. That cat is fast too, but we don’t know what else it is capable of. Since brother spoke of the two animals at the same time, the cat must be equally capable. It does give him a bigger chance to return to safety!]

[Well… it should be…]

[But it is still dangerous!]

[Every one of the countless cultivators who got themselves killed in Heaven’s Terrace in the history was fully prepared. They were all so confident before they went there, weren’t they?]

[People only understand the horror after they are going to go through it! There is no perfect preparation!]

[One mistake, and there comes the death!]

The ladies sighed.

They both regret that they didn’t raise themselves to the same height as Wu Fa and Xuan Bing in cultivation. If each of them could be powerful enough to dominate the world, their brother might not have to go to Heaven’s Terrace and take that risk!

Yue Shuang thought for a while and said, ”Brother, you know how dangerous it is in that place, but you insist on going. I can’t stop you. I just want to ask, how much do you really know about Heaven’s Terrace?”

Ye Xiao smiled bitterly and touched his jaw. ”Well, you got me. What I know is that there is a unique fruit, Yin Yang Fruit. Whoever in Dao Origin Stage could be boosted to the peak of level nine instantly when he or she eats the fruit. It is a purely positive effect. There will be no side effects. It won’t leave any hidden threat inside one’s body. Aside from this, I know as much as everybody does about that place.”

The two ladies held their foreheads… They were awkwardly speechless indeed.

”According to the record of our sect, Heaven’s Terrace first appeared over ten thousand years ago. When it first appeared, countless people died because of it… Countless…”
