Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 1017: Chapter 1013: Seventh Transition

The young girl furrowed her eyebrows slightly, remaining silent.

She actually felt that the Palace Master’s approach was too lenient.

Toward these sects of Yuanzhen, there’s no need for politeness; hitting them hard is the right way.

No matter how formidable the Purple Sky Jade Pavilion is, it cannot be stronger than the Yukunlun Palace.

Moreover, this is within the territory of Yukunlun Palace; why endure the humiliation?

This handling of the situation, in her view, is enduring humiliation.

Chu Liezhao said: ”Has this Elder from the Ministry of Justice left yet?”

The young girl gently shook her head.

Chu Liezhao said: ”However strong Purple Sky Jade Pavilion is, such an Elder is a rare expert. Directly crippling him, doesn’t it weaken the Purple Sky Jade Pavilion?”

”This...” The young girl’s bright eyes widened.

Li Miaotan laughed and said: ”Husband, you overestimate the Yukunlun Palace too much!”

She met the discontented gaze of the three girls and chuckled: ”Yukunlun Palace lacks the courage for that.”

She understood Chu Liezhao’s intention, naturally cooperating in tacit agreement, adding fuel to the fire.

Chu Liezhao laughed and said: ”I really don’t understand, Yukunlun Palace, what are they afraid of? Do they still want to live harmoniously with Purple Sky Jade Pavilion? Or some other cooperation?”

The young girl hurriedly shook her head: ”We have a grudge against Purple Sky Jade Pavilion, how is cooperation possible!”

Chu Liezhao said: ”Then why always tied up, utterly cowardly!”

He understood the mentality of top Great Sects like Yukunlun Palace and Purple Sky Jade Pavilion.

Facing the provocations of sects within the Dynasty, they never hold back, defending their dignity at any cost.

But facing provocations from sects outside the Dynasty, especially those of the same level, they don’t engage in fights of pride and instead calculate gains and losses first.

To the greatest extent avoid aiding the Court and weakening themselves.

All aim to surpass the Dynasty, becoming independent, unaffected by the Dynasty’s grievances, free and unconstrained.

The young girl said: ”If we did this, Yuanzhen’s disciples would immediately face their fierce retaliation, plunging into danger.”

Chu Liezhao laughed and said: ”Then it’s out of fear, ... afraid of disciple losses and can only endure a bit, haha, small endurance leads to great disorder.”

His tone carried sarcasm.

The three young girls were all enraged, glaring fiercely at him with dissatisfaction.

Li Miaotan shook her head: ”If it were the Court, small endurance leads to great disorder; Yukunlun Palace... what great plan do they have? It’s nothing but fear and cowardice.”

”Your Highness! Prince Consort!” The young girl retorted: ”The Palace Master has his reasons for acting, we are ignorant and unwise, dare not speak recklessly, the Palace Master’s wisdom is extraordinary, far beyond what we can compare to, we can only obey orders!”

Chu Liezhao turned his head and smiled: ”Madam, this one is indeed formidable, I concede defeat,... then let’s remove this Elder of Purple Sky Jade Pavilion ourselves.”

”Yes, that’s good too.” Li Miaotan nodded lightly: ”They are ineffective, we can only do it ourselves.”

”Prince Consort, this Elder is a Venerable Seventh Transition, rare in the world.” The young girl hurriedly said.

Chu Liezhao pondered: ”Seventh Transition...”

Li Miaotan furrowed her eyebrows lightly.

The Seventh Transition indeed is very troublesome.

I am currently only at Fifth Transition, a slight distance from Sixth Transition.

My husband is also at Sixth Transition, not yet Seventh Transition.

One, Two, Three Transitions; Four, Five, Six Transitions; Seven, Eight, Nine Transitions; divided into three major Realms, with great disparity.

The gap between Sixth Transition and Seventh Transition far exceeds that between Fifth Transition and Sixth Transition.

Chu Liezhao closed his eyes, sighed, and said: ”Originally, I thought to proceed slower, wait for you, Madam, but now it seems, I can only breakthrough first.”

Li Miaotan hurriedly said: ”Husband, do you really want to breakthrough?”

Chu Liezhao smiled slightly: ”Let’s stay another day, this is the best place for the breakthrough.”

After all, it’s a Grotto Heaven, quiet and safe; the breakthrough here is exceptionally good.

”Alright.” Li Miaotan looked toward the three young girls.

They nod quickly.

The leading young girl smiled and said: ”Then this young lady congratulates Prince Consort in advance.”

Venerable Seventh Transition, that is a Great Venerable, incredibly rare in the world.

Even Yukunlun Palace, so powerful, has few Great Venerables.

Disciples of Yukunlun Palace are all geniuses, since ancient times, never had such a young Seventh Transition Venerable.

The Twelfth Prince Consort’s talent is peerless, indeed astonishing.

Chu Liezhao smiled and said: ”Though your Sect is too soft on Purple Sky Jade Pavilion, still, thank you for providing such a treasure land.”

The young girl grinned gracefully: ”Your Highness, too kind.”

Chu Liezhao said: ”This matter will surely soon shock the world; I wonder how the world will view Yukunlun Palace then.”

He smiled, turned around, and walked back, sitting cross-legged on the bluestone by the lake.

The girl’s smile suddenly froze, furrowing her eyebrows lightly.

She didn’t need to think, knowing that once the news spread, everyone would believe Yukunlun Palace feared Purple Sky Jade Pavilion.

Chu Liezhao sat on the bluestone by the lake, closed his eyes, and muttered: ”Yukunlun Palace has always wanted to surpass Fengtian Palace, reputation is extremely important, and sometimes for reputation, some interests must be sacrificed, both reputation and benefit, nothing so good in the world.”

The young girl furrowed her eyebrows slightly, remaining silent.

She was pondering when suddenly sensed something strange.

Looking up, she felt a vast aura descending from the sky, continuously injecting into Chu Liezhao’s body.

The young girl’s bright eyes widened immediately.

Li Miaotan curiously watched Chu Liezhao’s unusual state, feeling the change in his aura.

The breakthroughs of the Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record and Great Sky Demon, both gave Chu Liezhao tremendous shocks and insights.

With these insights, his breakthrough to the Seventh Transition was smooth and natural.

He carefully perceived the changes in his body, while comparing with the breakthroughs of Great Sky Demon and Spiritual Abyss Body Cleansing Record.

Plus, referencing the cultivation experience of several Great Sky Demons.

This gave him a deeper understanding of his own changes.

This accumulation of insight is crucial for entering the next Realm, equivalent to resources.

”Let’s go to the valley edge.” Li Miaotan said.

The three young girls looked at the slowly rising Chu Liezhao, feeling the wild power surging, pushing them backward like a tide.

Even without Li Miaotan saying, they had to retreat, unable to withstand.

”Whew...”

”Huff...”

The strong wind began to rise.

The branches shook and swayed fiercely.

Patches of brocade-like wildflowers uprooted, flew into the air spiraling, whistling with sand and stone in a roll.

The surroundings were a scene of devastation.

The black clouds in the sky rolled in, in the blink of an eye enveloping the valley above, resembling a giant black umbrella.

The lake surface began to surge with waves, forming depressions, the closer to him, the more severe the subsidence.

”So powerful...”

The three young girls widened their bright eyes, gazing at the apocalyptic scene, unable to hold back from murmuring.

Li Miaotan’s brows furrowed lightly, absorbed in thought.

Husband’s previous breakthrough didn’t have such grand phenomena; is it due to the Upper Three Transitions for Seventh Transition?

She carefully felt, pondering, while her aura strengthened, helping the three girls resist the wild power’s push.

Chu Liezhao floated higher and higher, finally sitting cross-legged in the Void, a hundred meters high.

The water in the lake had already formed a thirty-meter-long, arm-thick silver dragon, spiraling around him.

At first glance, this silver dragon seemed to drill into the black clouds above his head.

The three girls were already dumbfounded.

Disciples from afar at Yukunlun Palace also saw the phenomenon here, rushing over.

They gathered around the three girls and Li Miaotan, staring at Chu Liezhao while inquiring.

Upon hearing it was Chu Liezhao breaking through to Seventh Transition, they shook their heads repeatedly.

This Realm was unattainable to them, probably impossible to achieve in their lifetimes.

But Chu Liezhao, at such an age, was about to breakthrough to the Seventh Transition, truly despair-inducing.

Li Miaotan ignored those gazes around her, only eyes fixed on Chu Liezhao, watching his aura gradually gathering, finally becoming completely invisible.

If eyes weren’t fixed on him, he couldn’t be sensed.

She couldn’t help but sigh; is this the suppression of Realm?
