Ye Yang held a large piece of Azure Wind Antelope leg in his hands, turned around, wiped his mouth that was glimmering with light, and smiled, "Master, you have arrived!"
"Mm." Elder Qingxuan looked at Ye Yang, a flicker of divine light passing through his eyes, and couldn't help but smile, "Very good. After your battle with Peng Cheng and Xuan Lian, Zi Yu's cultivation has advanced significantly, reaching the level of Starry Sky Sixth Level. This is truly remarkable. It seems that within three years, Zi Yu will step into the Stellar Realm and may even continue to break through the Stellar Realm to reach the Celestial Realm and ascend to Godhood, living in harmony with heaven and earth."
Ye Yang smiled, "I won't think about ascending to Godhood for such a long time. Master, you just mentioned that I have entered the 'Empty Valley' state. What does this Empty Valley actually mean?"
Elder Qingxuan smiled slightly, stroking his beard as he explained, "Empty Valley refers to a state of emptiness. The True Qi within your body is like a lake of clear water, flowing through the meridians like streams. By chance, if you exhaust all your True Qi, your internal True Qi will dry up. However, this emptiness allows the power of heaven and earth to fill and expand you. In other words, the space within your body that contains True Qi will be greatly enhanced; this is what Empty Valley means. And Zi Yu, you are currently physically drained and empty in your abdomen, so you need to eat a lot. Go ahead and eat; that food will transform into True Qi for your use. Once you pass the Empty Valley state, your True Qi strength will surpass what it was before."
Ye Yang was overjoyed, "Oh, that's great!"
Azure Xuan nodded and said, "Do you remember not long ago when Xiang Yu led Zhongli Mei and others across the southern border to battle the Savage Behemoth for three days and nights? They finally killed that Starry Sky Level Seven Beast. That battle exhausted Xiang Yu and Zhongli Mei's True Qi; however, only Xiang Yu entered the Empty Valley state alone, which caused his strength to surge. As a Starry Sky Level Five expert, he now possesses the strength of Starry Sky Sixth Level."
"No wonder he was so fierce in the battle at Taiqiu Mountain..." Ye Yang's gaze sharpened as he said, "Once I pass through the Empty Valley state, I shouldn't be too inferior to Xiang Yu, right?"
Azure Xuan replied, "Hmm, do you want to fight Xiang Yu?"
"It’s not necessary to fight; rather..." Ye Yang pondered for a moment, "I just don't want the war brought by Xiang Yu to harm those I wish to protect. Therefore, I must maintain my strength to contend with him; otherwise, I would become a prisoner at others' mercy. I really dislike that feeling."
Azure Xuan couldn't help but smile as he stroked his beard while looking out at the sky. He said, "I'm not skilled in observing celestial phenomena but I do understand imperial decrees. Since Zi Yu wants to compete with Xiang Yu for control of the world, Hidden Dragon Hall will fully support you!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Eat up!"
"Okay..."
...
Continuing to feast heartily, ancient soup bowls and plates piled high in front of Ye Yang. Strangely enough, despite eating so much, his stomach remained flat; his miraculous body seemed like an endless pit that could never be filled no matter how much he consumed.
"If this continues, the Hidden Dragon Hall will be drained by the Young Master..." one of the Dragon Armored Warriors said with concern.
Another nodded and replied, "Although hunting beasts and gathering wild vegetables do not cost money, we still need to buy weapons, oil, and salt from the human town. Our income is so tight that we can only rely on selling some beast meat to the hunters for a low price to exchange for silver. This meal by the Young Master has truly consumed half a year's expenses for us."
Even Elder Qingxuan, leaning on his staff, looked somewhat worried and couldn't help but ask, "Zi Yu, are you full yet?"
Ye Yang patted his belly and said, "Master, I'm still a bit hungry..."
Azure Xuan responded with a "Hmm..."
Ye Yang had actually overheard the conversation between the two Dragon Armored Warriors and couldn't help but chuckle, "Master, is Hidden Dragon Hall really short on expenses? Logically speaking, there should be plenty of magical beasts in the Azure Cloud Mountain Range. If we kill a few more, we could exchange their Monster Crystals for a good amount of Silver Coins, right?"
Azure Xuan sighed, "The costs for repairing Weapons and Armor damaged during the cultivation of Hidden Dragon Sect Disciples, as well as expenses for maintaining our buildings, are enormous. Yet our income is very limited. The Hidden Dragon Hall has a long-standing rule that the Core of beasts hunted by Hidden Dragon Sect Disciples cannot be sold to ordinary people; they are used for refining to enhance one's cultivation. Therefore, we do not sell beast Cores. Zi Yu, you haven't sold any Demon Beast Cores, have you?"
Ye Yang shivered at the thought and replied, "How could I? I... I only sell weapons!"
Sweating profusely, Ye Yang reached into his Cosmic Bag and pulled out a roll of banknotes, slamming it onto the Table. "Master, this is money I earned from selling Weapons in Qi Land. Please don't be polite; although it's not much, there are still one hundred thousand taels of silver here—enough for Hidden Dragon Hall's expenses for several years. Please accept it!"
"Whoosh!"
The banknotes in Ye Yang's hand suddenly vanished as a mysterious Energy Fluctuation passed through his fingertips. He saw Elder Qingxuan calmly pocketing the banknotes without making a sound. Ye Yang was taken aback; this was the legendary power of a deity—he had taken the banknotes without Ye Yang even noticing. If this old fellow were to become a thief, he could circle Liang City and buy up all the brothels!
After handing over a stack of banknotes, Ye Yang continued, "Master, although Xuan Lian from Asura Hall has left, I'm worried he might come back. How should we deal with such a Divine-level Expert?"
Elder Qingxuan frowned deeply and said, "Zi Yu need not worry. During yesterday's confrontation, at the last moment I took a hit from Xuan Lian with my Azure Dragon Staff and struck his heavenly spirit. Although Xuan Lian seems fine on the surface, his Divine Rank has indeed been damaged. For over a hundred years now, I have been searching for ways to deal with Celestial Realm Experts. This Azure Dragon Staff is a treasure I sought throughout the world; its attribute is unique and can cause significant damage to the Divine Rank formed by Celestial Realm Experts. Although I was severely injured by Xuan Lian's strike, he may not be in much better shape than I am."
Ye Yang was overjoyed and said, "That's great! However, Xuan Lian took away a piece of flesh from Peng Cheng. If nothing unexpected happens, Peng Cheng will likely regenerate again. At that time, trouble may come knocking once more."
Elder Qingxuan smiled lightly, "Don't worry, next time that undead Peng Cheng dares to come again, I will personally take action to eliminate him!"
"Mm."
...
Asura Hall.
In the eerie mountains, piles of white bones were stacked in the valleys, flies swarmed around, and a foul stench filled the air, making one feel nauseous.
In the mountains, a figure slowly advanced, holding a black altar.
This was none other than Xuan Lian.
Standing among the heaps of corpses, Xuan Lian showed no fear of the surrounding dead bodies. He opened the altar, and suddenly a blood-red mist floated out, attaching itself to a decaying corpse and slowly writhing.
Xuan Lian's gaze was stern as he said, "Peng Cheng, drink deeply from the blood of this ghostly Remains. It is worth my effort to gather so many rotten corpses for you. Hmph, from now on, you will be the heir of my Hidden Dragon Hall. I will impart all my knowledge to you, with only one requirement: kill Ye Yang!"
