Chapter 259: Chapter 132: Have I returned to 10,000 years ago?_1

Shen Yuan could feel that during the month of his retreat, the concentration of Primordial Elemental Qi between heaven and earth was increasing.

The Elemental Qi at the gateway is ultimately not the mainstream path of cultivation in the Primal Chaos Realm. In the future, it may gradually return to its peak state during the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge era, but it will certainly never be able to reproduce the ancient ways.

Although Shen Yuan had regrets, he did not dwell on them too much.

The Path of Refinement is enough for him now. If he still yearns for other things, it would seem like a case of biting off more than he can chew.

After finishing his meal, Shen Yuan leisurely sat under the jujube tree, savoring Spiritual Tea while Gong Buyu continued to comprehend the “Moon’s Truth-condensing Breathing Method”. The starry sky Bodhi transformed into the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation continuously fell, which accelerated Gong Buyu’s comprehension.

Due to the frigid Elemental Qi which had reached its limit today, Gong Buyu did not practice cultivation, but instead pondered the subtleties of the arts.

The full moon in the sky still hung high, and under the cold moonlight, the frigid Qi slowly gathered, but its effects on the environment of the entire courtyard gradually diminished.

Under the frigid Qi, snowflakes still fell, but they no longer held the bone-piercing coldness that cut off all life. Life still flowed between the jujube tree and the green vines, forming its own cycle.

This indicated that Shen Yuan’s control over the Elemental Qi-woven laws of nature was gradually strengthening.

As the proprietor of the original method of the Path of Refinement, so long as the Elemental Qi evolution in the Courtyard Secret Realm continues, Shen Yuan can gain even stronger feedback.

As a Tiangang method of the Dao type, it ultimately required divine skills to be performed in combination, in order to truly understand its meaning.

Shen Yuan sipped his tea while contemplating these details.

Upon seeing Shen Yuan, Bai Xue no longer held the warmth of their first meeting, instead running around the courtyard, trying to catch the hexagonal snowflakes with her paw.

But as soon as the paw touched a snowflake, it melted immediately, yet Bai Xue kept jumping excitedly, never tiring of the game.

Shen Yuan’s gaze followed as Bai Xue hopped around, and after casually glancing at the surroundings of the courtyard, Shen Yuan suddenly froze, recalling another thing.

After several expansions, this Courtyard Secret Realm was not small in size, but the number of rooms in the courtyard was still the initial few.

On the first floor, apart from Shen Yuan’s bedroom, the kitchen, the living area, and a separated cultivation room, there were no other rooms. The second floor had a study and a storeroom.

How did Gong Buyu live here for a month?

Upon thinking of this, Shen Yuan’s gaze moved to Gong Buyu who was sitting off to the side. His gaze somehow broke Gong Buyu’s concentration and she hurriedly rose to her feet.

“Does the Master have any instructions?”

Shen Yuan shook his head lightly and answered casually, “It’s nothing serious, no need to panic.

I wanted to know, which room have you been resting in this past month?”

The respectful Gong Buyu voiced,

“Master, without your instructions, I didn’t dare to enter the other rooms. I was within the courtyard practicing for the past month.”

Shen Yuan’s brow furrowed, but eventually, he sighed.

“Since you have accepted me as your master, there is no need to be so restrained. Besides my bedroom, you may come and go freely in the other rooms. As for the second floor…”

Shen Yuan suddenly remembered that the second floor was home only to a computer electronic scripture depository, even the desktop background of the computer bore the words “electronic scripture depository”.

This was something he had casually set up for fun, but if his disciple saw it, it would tarnish his image as her master.

With a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, Shen Yuan revised his words,

“The second floor contains some things and is temporarily off-limits.”

Gong Buyu quietly replied, “Yes!”

But with this situation, there were no rooms in the courtyard for Gong Buyu to stay, which was identical to the prior circumstances.

Thinking about this, Shen Yuan looked up at the cold full moon in the sky.

“I was in a hurry when I set up my retreat, and didn’t provide you a practice room. I will resolve it today.”

As his words fell, Shen Yuan lightly tapped on the stone table with his index finger and issued a soft Imperial Edict.

“Split!”

A spatial jolt shivered through the Courtyard Secret Realm. Subsequently, the space between heaven and earth seemed to be split into two, the cold full moon slowly descended towards the earth.

The Elemental Qi-woven laws of nature followed the moon’s descent, falling silently into the courtyard.

The green vines on the corridor extended several tendril-like branches weaving into the outline of a room, and the jujube tree gently shook, shedding leaves that fell to decorate the room. In merely a moment, a separate room was formed in the courtyard, located right below Shen Yuan’s cultivation room.

The cold full moon, having shrunk countless times, dangled within the room. This unassuming room held a universe within, the moonlight fell, and the Elemental Qi-woven laws of nature enveloped the entire room.

Even though it was only a room, it faintly claimed to be a little Secret Realm.

Despite having some understanding of her master’s divine skills, the ability to create a small Secret Realm with a wave of his hand still made her heart tremble.

“Here is where you will cultivate.”

“It’s a bit simple due to the limitations of space. If one day, your cultivation succeeds, as your master, I will establish a Blessed Land for you beyond the Primal Chaos Realm.”

Shen Yuan’s words were spoken lightly, but they were far from empty promises.

In this month’s time, he had not only studied the Nine Breaths Great Magic Power.
