Chapter 379: It Hurts, Master

After wiping away the aura that belonged to the Xu Family in the courtyard, the incarnation waved his hand and set up a barrier. He took out countless heavenly treasures and placed them beside him. Then, he sat cross-legged and entered a cultivation state.

Buzz!

In an instant, countless spirit qi gathered. The originally crystal clear heavenly treasure was almost instantly sucked dry, turning into ashes that dissipated.

Not only that, but even the flowers and trees in the courtyard quickly withered, unable to withstand the effects of the incarnation’s cultivation.

In the past, without cultivation resources, the incarnation had always been around the early-phase of the Great Sage Stage. Now that it had suddenly absorbed so much spirit qi, the cultivation of the incarnation began to rise at an unbelievable speed!

The incarnation quickly surpassed the middle phase and late phase Great Sage Stage!

When all the spirit qi was absorbed and refined, the incarnation successfully stepped into the peak of the Great Sage Stage!

“It’s gone so quickly?”

The incarnation was stunned, but it was not because of the speed at which his cultivation increased, but because he was surprised by the consumption of the heavenly treasures.

Helpless, the incarnation could only take out more heavenly treasures and continue cultivating.

Ten minutes later, his incarnation successfully advanced to the first realm of the Great Void Stage.

An hour later, the incarnation broke through to the second realm of the Great Void Stage.

Four hours later, he reached the third realm of the Great Void Stage.

The incarnation easily broke through in just half a day.

And this was only the beginning.

…

Two days later, Zhang Jichen woke up from the medicinal pool. Not only had his injuries recovered, but he had also become incomparably relaxed. He smiled at everyone, as if he was meeting an old friend that he had not seen in years.

After half a year of bitter cultivation and hard work, he had finally successfully defeated Tam and avenged himself. It could be imagined how happy Zhang Jichen was.

In the past half a year, Tam had almost become Zhang Jichen’s inner demon, reminding him to constantly become stronger. Otherwise, Zhang Jichen would probably never leave the Xuanyi Mountain Sect and go out to train.

Who knows what Zhang Jichen would think if he knew that he had only managed to barely “defeat” Tam with Qin Jue’s help.

Of course, sometimes confidence was more important than the truth.

“Eh, Wu Ying, what’s the matter?”

Zhang Jichen, who was stretching his muscles, asked when he saw his junior brother, Wu Ying, walk over.

“Senior Brother, Uncle-Master is looking for you.” Wu Ying said indifferently.

“Uncle-Master? Why is he looking for me?”

Zhang Jichen was rather surprised.

“Hehe, you’ll know when you get there.” Wu Ying said meaningfully.

“Fine.”

Zhang Jichen was helpless. Then, he frowned as if he had realized something and looked at Wu Ying. “You’ve stepped into the Heaven Stage?”

“Yeah.”

Wu Ying nodded.

“Strange, I feel like something’s wrong.”

Zhang Jichen sized up Wu Ying, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar with Wu Ying.

In the past, Wu Ying looked very reserved and ordinary.

However, the current Wu Ying was like a sharp treasure sword that caused others to be unable to help but raise their eyebrows. The difference between the two was simply like the difference between the heavens and the earth.

Could it be because he had stepped into the Heaven Stage?

Zhang Jichen was puzzled.

Wu Ying did not explain. In any case, Zhang Jichen would find out soon enough. He immediately urged, “Hurry up and go. Uncle-Master doesn’t like to wait.”

“Uh… yeah, yeah.”

Zhang Jichen suddenly regained his senses and hurriedly rushed towards the cliff.

Interestingly, on the way to the cliff, Zhang Jichen actually encountered First Elder Wang Quan.

“First Elder, you…”

Zhang Jichen was curious.

“Oh, Junior Brother Qin wanted to meet me. What about you?” Wang Quan answered casually.

“Ahem, me too…”

The two of them looked at each other and could see the confusion in each other’s eyes.

With such doubts, the two of them quickly arrived at the cliff and saw the incomparably handsome youth.

“Junior Brother Qin, you’re looking for us?”

“Oh? You’ve arrived?”

Qin Jue took a sip of spirit wine and turned around with a smile. “I have something for you.”

The two couldn’t help but wonder what it was.

…

Another half a month passed. First Elder Wang Quan and Zhang Jichen finished absorbing the True God Stage inheritance one after another, and their cultivation increased greatly.

Among them, Wang Quan had even successfully advanced to the Supreme Stage. Zhang Jichen had also reached the peak of the Heaven Stage.

The current Zhang Jichen could defeat Tam head-on even without Qin Jue’s help.

It was only at this moment that Zhang Jichen understood why Wu Ying had changed so much.

Of course, at the foot of the mountain where no one was paying attention, Qin Jue’s incarnation had already completed his transformation and had become a lower realm True God Stage expert. Moreover, because he was worried that the commotion would be too great, he had specially created a contained space in the courtyard to prevent his spirit energy from leaking.

In the entire world, besides Qin Jue, the only “monster” who could cross so many realms in such a short period of time was probably his incarnation.

If not for the fact that the cultivation resources were exhausted, the incarnation might not have stopped.

Qin Jue’s mind was connected to the incarnation, so he naturally knew what had happened to the incarnation. Therefore, he simply gave the incarnation Feng Xi’s storage ring. The cultivation resources inside were enough for a lower realm True God Stage expert to cultivate to the upper realm God King Stage!

In addition, in order to prevent his incarnation from accidentally ascending to the God Realm, Qin Jue forcefully blocked the Heavenly Dao. At that time, even if his incarnation advanced to the God King Stage, he wouldn’t automatically ascend to the God Realm.

After doing this, Qin Jue rubbed Yun Xi, who was holding a spirit fruit, and lay down on his back.

“Master, what’s wrong?”

Yun Xi wiped her mouth and was slightly worried.

“Nothing.”

Qin Jue faintly said, “I just suddenly feel so bored.”

“Oh.”

Yun Xi continued to eat her spirit fruit when she heard this.

“…”

Qin Jue suddenly wanted to beat Yun Xi up.

Thinking like this, Qin Jue stretched out his finger and pinched Yun Xi’s soft face.

“Aiya, it hurts. Master, what are you doing?”

Yun Xi pouted unhappily.

Before she could finish her sentence, Qin Jue pinched again.

“Stop, Master.”

Yun Xi’s face flushed red as she hurriedly ran away.

However, Qin Jue had no intention of letting Yun Xi off at all and followed closely behind.

“Ahhh, Master, I was wrong!”

Although she didn’t understand why Qin Jue wanted to pinch her face, Yun Xi couldn’t care less. She had to apologize first.

“If you know your mistake, come over obediently.”

Qin Jue smiled faintly.

“No!”

Yun Xi shook her head and refused, and she was filled with vigilance.

“Are you sure?” Qin Jue’s expression changed as he said seriously.

“I… I can go over, but Master can’t pinch my face.”

Yun Xi was extremely aggrieved and looked extremely cute.

This scene made Qin Jue couldn’t help but think of how hurting her would only cause him to suffer more.

“Alright, alright, alright. I won’t pinch you anymore.”

Qin Jue smiled bitterly.

Seeing this, Yun Xi was finally willing to slowly approach Qin Jue.

As promised, Qin Jue indeed didn’t pinch Yun Xi’s face, but he flicked her head instead.

“Ah, Master lied to me!”

Yun Xi wanted to escape, but it was already too late. Qin Jue directly grabbed the hair on her head and she couldn’t escape.

“Wuwuwu, Master is a liar,” Yun Xi cried.

At this moment, a piece of beast meat suddenly appeared in Qin Jue’s hand and he placed it in front of Yun Xi. “Do you want to eat it?”

“Yes!”

Yun Xi’s cries stopped abruptly, and her eyes stared fixedly at the beast meat.

Qin Jue :”…”
