Chapter 812 World 360
Lan Yue didn't discourage her confidence, but said, "That's not far off. It will be about the same when you reach the Nascent Soul stage."
Shen Ruyin noticed her indifference but didn't explain further. She figured Lan Yue would believe it when she saw it for herself.
Shen Ruyin said she was going back to seclusion, but if she went into seclusion while Chen Ling was in seclusion, Lan Yue would be the only one left in the sect.
After years of slumber, how could Lan Yue possibly spend her first New Year alone after waking up?
Although there were few people on Po Nian Peak, Shen Ruyin still had people buy all sorts of New Year's goods and, together with the servants of Po Nian Peak, decorated the courtyard at the foot of the mountain to be exceptionally lively.
Yu Xing used to love running into the woods, but now she often stays indoors.
It just couldn't stay there for long; it would go to look at the window decorations one minute and play with the revolving lantern under the eaves the next.
After a while, when she didn't see it, Shen Ruyin felt relieved and let it take a couple of bites of the persimmons hanging on the treetop.
Shen Ruyin couldn't do anything about it, so Lanyue simply stopped using the hammock and moved a recliner to the yard to watch it make a ruckus.
Knowing they were being indulgent, Yu Xing had even more fun.
Shen Ruyin sometimes sighs with relief that she is a cultivator, otherwise, given the way Yu Xing plays, she wouldn't have asked Mao Mao to come and pet her when it came back all dirty.
On New Year's Eve, Shen Ruwan and the others rushed back, but none of them looked well.
Senior Brother Wang from Lieyang Palace was captured and brought back, but Wei Linghua escaped again.
That senior brother Wang truly loved her. He gave the last teleportation talisman to Wei Linghua and used the ghost weapon to stop the disciples of the Supreme Sect, buying time for Wei Linghua.
The Supreme Sect didn't wait long. After asking all the necessary questions, they openly and honestly sent the person back to the Blazing Sun Palace.
This Senior Brother Wang almost killed so many disciples from various sects, and even attacked people from his own sect. Naturally, the Lieyang Palace could not keep him, and it is said that they specially held a sect conference to cripple him.
The kind where the soul and spirit are utterly destroyed, and the bones are reduced to ashes.
Shen Ruwan brought some mundane trinkets to find Shen Ruyin, intending to talk to her, but unexpectedly ran into Lanyue in the courtyard.
Given their seniority, there were some things Shen Ruwan couldn't say aloud, so she only had a meal with Shen Ruyin before leaving.
Shen Ruyin stayed up all night with Lan Yue and Yu Xing. To make it more lively, they set up a bonfire and roasted a fragrant spirit beast.
After the New Year, Shen Ruyin did not leave Po Nian Peak for a long time.
Although Lan Yue had never taken on any disciples before, that didn't stop her from being a good teacher.
She meticulously taught Shen Ruyin all the signature skills of the various main peaks of the Supreme Sect, as well as those that the Moon-Gazing Association possessed.
When Shen Ruyin reached the level of Beast Taming Peak, she felt something was wrong.
She received a great deal of instruction from Master Li of Beast Taming Peak, who also shared his knowledge with her without reservation, so she also learned some of the methods of Beast Taming Peak.
It seems that the skills taught by the Lan Yue Sect are even more powerful than those practiced by Peak Master Li himself?
Shen Ruyin shared her doubts with Lan Yue.
“Isn’t this normal?” Lan Yue replied. “Over thousands of years, some techniques have been simplified and made easier to use, while some legendary skills have been lost to time. As they are passed down, no one remembers them anymore.”
"What I know now and what I teach you are all the things I learned before."
"Aside from the methods of Beast Taming Peak, you'll understand the difference between the methods of Technique Peak and Talisman Peak when you try to use them yourself."
"Some techniques and talismans are new methods that can be used by more people now, but the strict conditions for their use in the past meant that their power could not be compared to what we have now."
Some knowledge is better the newer it is, while some things are better the older they are.
Shen Ruyin seemed to understand something, and after listening to her words, she simply sat down to meditate.
Seeing that Lan Yue's few words had led to Shen Ruyin's breakthrough, Lan Yue was delighted with her talent and personally protected her, also cutting off the path for ordinary people to Po Nian Peak.
Time flew by, and Shen Ruyin didn't go down the mountain for two or three years.
When Shen Ruyin turned seventeen, Chen Ling emerged from seclusion.
Lan Yue saw him and said, "You've come at just the right time, emerging from seclusion just as Xing Luo is about to establish his foundation."
Chen Ling also gained something from his seclusion. Although he hadn't reached the point of undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation, he had indeed crossed a small realm.
“It’s precisely because I was thinking the time was almost right,” Chen Ling smiled, “otherwise I wouldn’t have come out of seclusion yet.”
It's a good thing that Chen Ling has emerged from seclusion, and it's even better that Shen Ruyin has achieved Foundation Establishment.
Sect Leader Qian made a special trip to protect Shen Ruyin, and also brought Shen Ruwan, who was worried about her younger sister.
Compared to the light rain that Shen Ruwan went through, Shen Ruyin's tribulation was much more severe.
Thunderclouds rolled across the sky, carrying an unparalleled momentum.
Shen Ruwan was a little nervous, but Sect Master Qian was not surprised: "Those who cross the tribulation at Po Nian Peak always find it more difficult than others, and the Heavenly Dao tests them even more."
Hearing this, Shen Ruwan became even more worried.
Shen Ruyin didn't catch her sister's worry. She was full of confidence and even eager to follow her sister's example and have the heavenly lightning help her refine the Xuanbing Iron.
She didn't have a fire elemental root, nor did she possess a high-quality exotic fire, so she had never been able to forge the Xuanbing Iron into a suitable weapon.
She would be overjoyed if she could achieve her goal today using the fire of heavenly thunder.
The thunderclouds on the horizon seemed to sense her distraction, and a bolt of lightning as thick as a thumb struck down from the gloomy clouds.
Shen Ruyin didn't take it seriously; dressed in her monastic robes, she didn't even raise an eyebrow.
As she expected, the lightning bolt, as thick as a thumb, had no effect on Shen Ruyin.
To be precise, it didn't even reach the level of "slightly dirty hem".
Perhaps provoked by her nonchalance, lightning struck again, but this time the lightning changed color, clearly indicating that it had increased in intensity.
Shen Ruyin was still not satisfied and reluctantly made a move, but did not take out the Xuanbing Iron.
The lightning bolts became more and more frequent, and their colors grew darker and darker.
When only the last three tribulation lightning bolts remained, the clouds underwent a dramatic change, and the oppressive force emanating from them could be clearly felt even by onlookers standing on the outermost layer.
The other peak masters had all arrived and were all staring intently in the direction of Shen Ruyin, their gazes never leaving her for a moment.
Shen Ruwan was so nervous that her nails dug deep into her flesh: "The clouds have turned into a mixture of black and purple, this, this can't be..."
"It's Purple Heaven Thunder," Sect Master Qian couldn't hide his smile as he turned to Chen Ling and said, "You have a good disciple!"
Seeing how worried Shen Ruwan was, Fu He quietly said to her, "The Purple Heaven Tribulation is commonplace for Po Nian Peak."
“There used to be a saying on Po Nian Peak that the more powerful the lightning tribulation, the greater the chance of ascending to immortality in the end.”
“Junior Sister Xingluo can already attract Purple Heaven Lightning at the Foundation Establishment stage; her future achievements will surely be limitless.”
