Chapter 25 Young friend, I've been waiting for you for a long time.
The two men exuded a deep and profound aura, standing there like two insurmountable mountains, inspiring awe and fear in all who beheld them.
"Young friend, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
One of them spoke, his voice gentle.
As the aura dissipated, Chu Yuan felt he had regained control of his body.
He was horrified and immediately spread his divine sense to investigate the surrounding situation.
However, as soon as his divine sense left his body, it was suppressed by some kind of power in this blood-red world, and he could only explore a radius of a hundred feet.
This... actually managed to bring him here from the main hall without him having any power to resist.
Even a Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage couldn't achieve such a feat!
Infant Transformation into a Strong Person.
And there were two of them.
Chu Yuan's mind raced, and he quickly came up with an answer.
Suppressing his shock, he bowed respectfully, his tone humble.
"Junior Chu Yuan greets the two progenitors."
The old man standing on the right stroked his beard and smiled, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "Hehe, young friend, this is our first meeting. How did you know we are the founders of the Soul Refining Sect?"
Chu Yuan raised his head, his expression calm and neither humble nor arrogant: "This junior believes he possesses some strength. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage wouldn't be able to render this junior powerless. Only a Nascent Soul cultivator could possess such abilities. And this place is deep within the inner sect of the Soul Refining Sect. Apart from the two founders, who else could it be?"
"Hahahahaha!"
The old man burst into laughter, the sound echoing through this blood-red world, causing the surrounding soul energy to tremble slightly.
"What you say is true, young friend. We are indeed the two founders of the Soul Refining Sect. I, the old man, will now ascend to the heavens."
The old man on the left smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "I am Nian Tian."
Chu Yuan cupped his hands again, his tone becoming even more respectful: "Junior Chu Yuan greets Senior Duntian and Senior Niantian."
Chu Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly, his vigilance intensifying, but he showed no sign of it on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "May I ask what business the two seniors have with me?"
Nian Tian smiled slightly and stroked his beard: "Hehe, before that, we two have a gift to give to our young friend."
Duntian nodded, his gaze falling on Chu Yuan, and praised, "I observe that your cultivation has reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, with a solid foundation and abundant spiritual power, which is truly rare. Please accept this gift."
Before he could finish speaking, he raised his hand and waved it.
The void behind them suddenly trembled, and a huge soul banner appeared out of thin air.
The soul banner was ten zhang tall, with a black banner pole made of an unknown material. Its surface was covered with dense soul patterns, emitting a faint black glow.
The banner was as wide as a curtain, dark red in color, with countless ghostly figures moving about on it, emitting mournful cries.
As soon as the Soul Banner appeared, the entire blood-red world trembled. The surrounding soul energy seemed to be summoned, rushing wildly towards the banner and being completely devoured.
Chu Yuan's pupils contracted slightly.
This is the Soul Refining Sect's most precious treasure, the Ten Billion Soul Banner.
Duntian raised his hand and pointed a finger at Chu Yuan.
The enormous soul banner suddenly trembled, and ten purple-gold rays of light shot out from its surface, like ten spirit snakes, instantly coiling around Chu Yuan's body.
The light was extremely thin and bright, emitting a dazzling purple-gold radiance that enveloped Chu Yuan entirely.
Chu Yuan's body stiffened, and before he could react, he felt an unimaginably powerful spiritual force surge into his body along the ten rays of light.
The concentration of spiritual energy far exceeded any of his previous cultivation sessions.
It surged forth from the soul banner like ten rushing rivers, passing through the light, flowing into his meridians, and into his dantian.
The nascent soul within Chu Yuan's body suddenly opened its eyes, opened its small mouth, and frantically devoured the spiritual power, its form solidifying and growing at a visible speed.
One time, two times, three times, four times...
Chu Yuan's cultivation level rose at an incredible speed. The bottleneck of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm was teetering on the brink of collapse under the impact of that spiritual power.
His aura grew stronger and stronger, and he was like a balloon being inflated, ready to break through the shackles at any moment.
Five times, six times, seven times, eight times, and it's still growing!
Duntian watched this scene, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, which quickly turned into appreciation. He stroked his beard and laughed heartily, "Young friend, absorb as much as you can! Just keep absorbing!"
Chu Yuan sat cross-legged, his aura rising steadily, from the peak of the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, and finally to the great perfection of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm!
He reached the Great Perfection of the late Nascent Soul stage in just a short time!
Not satisfied with that, he formed a hand seal!
The main body is far away in the snowy region, separated by more than ten thousand miles. Although the two are each other's clones, in reality, there is no difference between them. There is also an invisible connection between their souls. Now, Chu Yuan is communicating with the main body in the snowy region through this connection!
Let's smoke together!!
boom!!
Snowy Land.
Inside the room, Chu Yuan's aura was also steadily increasing!
He quickly reached the late-stage Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm, only lacking the comprehension of its essence, and was ready to directly transform into a deity!
He finally stopped absorbing it.
Upon seeing this, Duntian put away the Soul Banner.
Chu Yuan's spiritual energy surged, and the aura of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage rippled around him like a raging storm, only gradually subsiding after a long time.
He closed his eyes and felt the immense, almost overflowing spiritual power within his body. The nascent soul was coiled in his dantian, its form solid and its spiritual light dazzling, more than twice as strong as before.
He opened his eyes, stood up, and bowed solemnly to Duntian: "Thank you, Ancestor."
Duntian waved his hand and laughed, "What's this? It's just some spiritual energy. The Soul Banner of Ten Billion has accumulated soul energy for thousands of years. What you absorbed is not even a drop in the ocean. It's not worth mentioning."
He paused, looked Chu Yuan up and down, and praised, "Young friend, you are now at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, with a solid foundation and abundant spiritual power. You are only one step away from breaking through to the Divine Transformation realm, which requires a deeper understanding of the spiritual intent."
"However, this final step will depend on you, young friend."
Duntian's tone became more serious.
"Comprehension of artistic conception is different from the accumulation of spiritual power. Outsiders cannot help you with it, nor can it be rushed. It requires opportunity, time to mature, and, more importantly, finding your own path. However, with your talent, young friend, it should not be difficult for you to comprehend the Nascent Soul stage."
Nian Tian smiled faintly, stroked his beard, and looked at Chu Yuan, saying meaningfully, "Young friend, you must be wondering why we two are treating you so well?"
Chu Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly, his heart filled with doubts.
He had never met these two ancestors before, yet they presented him with such a great gift upon their first meeting: the infusion of the soul power of ten billion Soul Banners, which directly pushed his cultivation level from the mid-Nascent Soul stage to the late-Nascent Soul stage at its peak.
Such kindness is perhaps too much.
He cupped his hands and said, "This junior is indeed puzzled, please enlighten me, senior."
Nian Tian and Dun Tian exchanged a glance, and Dun Tian nodded slightly.
Nian Tian took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth, his voice echoing in this blood-red world.
"Young friend, do you know that although my Soul Refining Sect is one of the three major sects of the Pilu Kingdom and seems glorious, it has actually been declining for a long time? Talents are dwindling and there are no successors. The inner disciples are getting worse with each generation, and among the core disciples selected in the outer competition, only a handful can reach the Nascent Soul stage. If this continues, the Soul Refining Sect will be wiped off the list of this Vermilion Bird Star in less than a thousand years."
