Chapter 340: Breaking Through Again

The appearance of two elders from the Heaven Demon Sect made Ji Yang feel very troubled!

Ji Yang decisively changed his route once more while sending out primordial spirit phantom number three to scout ahead.

As expected, his primordial spirit phantom number three also discovered the traces of another Heaven Demon Sect elder ahead.

“Tsk tsk, three elders from the Heaven Demon Sect, that’s quite an impressive show!”

On the spiritual boat, Ji Yang exclaimed.

Through the primordial spirit phantom, he had already noticed the layout of the Heaven Demon Sect!

The appearance of these three elders made things quite challenging for Ji Yang.

All three elders were blocking his path; no matter where he tried to go, he would have to pass by one of them.

At this moment, Ji Yang did not attempt to change his route again; doing so would mean retreating back to the Heaven Demon Sect!

While Ji Yang was lost in thought, the last layer of halo around the spiritual boat slowly disappeared, revealing the entire spiritual boat in the air once more.

Many passing cultivators cast surprised glances at the suddenly visible spiritual boat.

Among them was a disciple of the Heaven Demon Sect, who quickly sent out a Transmission upon seeing the familiar spiritual boat.

Before the Transmission arrived, the tracking artifacts in the hands of the three elders blocking the way reacted.

In Elder Du’s Array Map, the missing Light point reappeared.

Reacting to this news, Elder Du immediately transmitted to the other two elders.

However, the other two also received the news at the same time, and with the transmission from the Heaven Demon Sect disciple, the three quickly pinpointed Ji Yang’s location!

Upon realizing the distance between Ji Yang and the three elders, Elder Guan from Qingsuo City sneered and transformed into a stream of light, rushing toward Ji Yang’s current location!

The other two elders did not hesitate either; the three of them moved together toward the encirclement!

When the three gathered again, that would be the moment Ji Yang was captured. At that point, no matter what abilities Ji Yang possessed, he would find it difficult to escape from the hands of three late Void Refinement stage cultivators!

As the halo around the spiritual boat vanished, Ji Yang’s primordial spirit sent corresponding sensations; his location had been exposed!

He knew that the three elders from the Heaven Demon Sect would arrive shortly.

Given the strength of the three, it wouldn’t take them long to get there!

It seemed that this battle was unavoidable!

Ji Yang remained calm, not panicking due to the imminent crisis.

On that day, he had managed to escape from Elder Guan; now, there were merely two additional elders!

He had divine abilities at his disposal; could he not handle just three late Void Refinement stage elders?

Ji Yang thought for a moment.

It seemed that might not be the case!

He was only at the Spirit Transformation Stage, while the other three were at the late Void Refinement stage. The difference between their realms was significant, with two small realms in between!

Moreover, with three of them together, even if he had some advantages, Ji Yang felt his chances of winning were very low, almost negligible.

Furthermore, he suspected that these three elders might possess high-grade or even superior-grade magical artifacts, which he needed to be cautious of.

A high-level cultivator with their life-bound treasure unleashes a power far beyond what it appears to be; if it were a more powerful spiritual treasure, Ji Yang would be in even greater danger.

If he could, he would call for help from his Master right now, but it seemed he hadn’t received a Transmission from Ye Wuchen yet.

Even if he had, it probably wouldn’t be in time.

“Junior brother, how long until we arrive?”

At that moment, Ren Yuning stepped out from inside the spiritual boat.

“Soon, we’ll be there in half a day!”

Ji Yang smiled.

“Hey, senior sister, what is that over there?”

Ji Yang suddenly looked surprised and gazed into the distance.

Ren Yuning quickly turned her head to follow Ji Yang’s line of sight, her face soon showing confusion.

“Junior brother, I don’t see…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Ren Yuning felt her consciousness blur and then collapsed, unconscious and unresponsive.

“Sweet!”

Ji Yang, who was behind her, calmly put away his iron pick and let out a content sigh!

He had been holding back against Ren Yuning for a long time, and today he could finally take action.

If he didn’t act now, it would affect his battle with the other three elders; she might even escape.

Having come this far, Ji Yang wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen!

This ordinary knock-out move could only be used against regular people, but if infused with his techniques’ characteristics, its power would be extraordinary.

This should keep her asleep for several days.

After handling Ren Yuning, Ji Yang opened his attribute panel:

【Name: Ji Yang】

【Age: 20】

【Realm: Early Stage of Spirit Transformation】

【Techniques: Feather Transformation Ascension Skill, Huang Ting Dao Jing】

【Abilities: Heart Sword, Sword Cultivation, Breathing Technique of All Things, Soldiers from Beans, Wandering Spirit Commanding Energy, Thunderous Power, Thousands of Sword Energies, Feather Transformation】

【Cultivation: 460/999】

【Usable】

【Status: Heaven’s Jealousy (Will encounter great difficulty within five days)】

【Status: Heavenly punishment】

Ji Yang had grown accustomed to the difficulties listed under status and no longer felt the initial alarm.

It was just a great difficulty; it meant he could still handle it.

Now, Ji Yang needed to convert the cultivation points he had accumulated into his power!

With 460 points, it should be enough to significantly enhance his current realm.

Time was short; Ji Yang didn’t hesitate any longer and decisively clicked the usable button.

A familiar sensation washed over him as countless gentle spiritual energies erupted within him.

As the techniques circulated and the spiritual energy surged, Ji Yang’s realm rapidly increased.

Early Stage of Spirit Transformation!

Mid Spirit Transformation realm!

Late Spirit Transformation!

Upon reaching the Late Spirit Transformation realm, the spiritual energy within him didn’t dissipate but continued to surge.

As Ji Yang broke through, Xuanqing, who had been unconscious for two days due to deploying his life-bound divine abilities, gradually began to awaken.

Xuanqing’s eyes opened slightly, and he witnessed Ji Yang simultaneously breaking through two realm levels in an instant!

Feeling Ji Yang’s rapidly rising realm and increasing momentum, Xuanqing couldn’t help but rub his eyes, murmuring,

“I must still be dreaming!”

Before Xuanqing could think deeply, a crisp voice rang in his mind.

Then, as expected, Xuanqing fell unconscious again.

Ji Yang, having stowed away his iron pick again, was a bit surprised he had acted quickly enough.

He didn’t expect Xuanqing to wake up at that moment.

Though no one knew how he had broken through, since all that gentle spiritual energy was surging from within him, Ji Yang still didn’t want anyone to learn his secret—even Xuanqing!

Feeling his newfound realm, Ji Yang clenched his fists tightly, confidence welling up within him.

Although this breakthrough only reached the Late Spirit Transformation realm and didn’t advance to the Void Refinement stage, the leap between the two realms had significantly boosted Ji Yang’s strength beyond what it had been.

Most importantly, the techniques Ji Yang practiced were not ordinary, so even a small increase in realm would greatly enhance his power!

Additionally, his abilities and spells had also improved.

If he faced Elder Guan alone, Ji Yang felt that even if he couldn’t defeat him, easily escaping wouldn’t be a problem!

However, since there were still three elders, he needed to be more cautious.
