Does the master need to agree?
The Great Dao Pen was somewhat speechless.
If this guy wanted to reach the Heavenly Dao realm, the master probably wouldn’t stop him, and couldn’t stop him, because this guy didn’t play fair. He would call for his sister at the drop of a hat.
Thinking of this, the Great Dao Pen sighed softly. “Then, are you preparing to break through now?”
Ye Xuan said, “I can do that.”
The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “I think it’s best if you don’t break through in this academy, because the commotion will be huge.”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Then let’s change locations.”
With that, he stood up and left the study.
As soon as Ye Xuan left the study, he saw Xing Ling. Xing Ling smiled slightly. “Young Master Ye, are you not reading anymore?”
Ye Xuan smiled. “I’m going to handle something.”
Xing Ling glanced at Ye Xuan, then said, “Alright.”
Ye Xuan smiled slightly, then transformed into a sword light and disappeared into the depths of the starry sky.
In place, Xing Ling looked up into the depths of the starry sky, lost in thought.
…
An hour later, Ye Xuan flew on his sword to a vast expanse of endless starry sky.
Ye Xuan glanced around. The surrounding starry sky was silent.
The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “You need to open the heavenly eye first, sense the master, and then the master will send down tribulation lightning. If you survive it, you can prove yourself in the Heavenly Dao.”
Ye Xuan asked, “How do I open the heavenly eye?”
The Great Dao Pen said, “Cultivate.”
Ye Xuan frowned. “Too slow.”
The Great Dao Pen was silent for a moment, then said, “Forget it. I’ll help you sense it.”
With that, it trembled violently. The next moment, a mysterious aura surged from Ye Xuan’s body into the sky.
Boom!
Above Ye Xuan’s head, a massive vortex suddenly appeared.
Ye Xuan looked at the massive vortex, somewhat curious. “Little Pen, what is this?”
The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “You’ll find out soon.”
At that moment, a gigantic eye suddenly appeared within the black vortex.
Ye Xuan blinked. “Is this your master’s eye?”
The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “No. This is the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye representing the master, similar to the Heavenly Dao you’ve seen before. It’s also formed from a wisp of the master’s intent, but this one is fiercer and very strong. It will send down Dao lightning soon. If you withstand it, you’ll pass the first test.”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “With my own strength, can I withstand it?”
The Great Dao Pen said, “Do you want to try?”
Ye Xuan hesitated a bit.
Give it a try?
The Great Dao Pen continued, “If you want to try on your own, it’s possible, but it’s a bit dangerous. This Dao lightning isn’t ordinary. Ordinary people can’t withstand it.”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “In this world, is there a No Dao realm?”
The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “You don’t think you’re the first to reach the No Dao realm, do you?”
Ye Xuan blinked. “Aren’t I?”
The Great Dao Pen was speechless.
At that moment, in the sky, the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye suddenly spoke. “Was it you who sensed the Great Dao?”
Ye Xuan looked up at the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye, which was gazing at him coldly.
Ye Xuan said, “Yes.”
In the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye’s gaze, a terrifying divine lightning suddenly coalesced.
Sensing the power of that divine lightning, Ye Xuan’s expression changed instantly.
Danger.
With his current realm, he rarely encountered danger, but now, for the first time, he felt it.
This was somewhat terrifying.
Ye Xuan hurriedly said, “Wait a moment. Let me think about it.”
Hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye flew into a rage. “Wait? Mortal, are you joking? I…”
At that moment, the Great Dao Pen suddenly said, “I advise you to speak politely.”
Hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye was slightly stunned. The next moment, its gaze fell on the Great Dao Pen at Ye Xuan’s waist. “Great Dao Pen… it’s you.”
The Great Dao Pen said calmly, “With such a big eye, you only noticed me now. Is it because after I was confined, you guys started ignoring me?”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye hesitated, then said, “I wouldn’t dare.”
Great Dao Pen.
This was the pen in the master’s hand. Though its strength wasn’t impressive, it was close to the emperor.
The Great Dao Pen said, “This is Young Master Ye beside me. Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of him.”
Young Master Ye.
Hearing this, the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye was instantly shocked. “What the… you’re the backer…”
At that point, it hurriedly stopped.
The Backer King Ye Xuan.
It had naturally heard of him.
This person was currently the one not to provoke.
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye felt somewhat depressed. How did it encounter this guy?
The Great Dao Pen suddenly said, “Young Master Ye needs to think about it. Wait a moment.”
Heavenly Dao Divine Eye: “…”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Heavenly Dao Divine Eye, with my current strength, can I withstand your Dao lightning?”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye said gravely, “It’s difficult.”
Ye Xuan frowned.
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye added, “This Dao lightning is special. Ordinary No Dao realms can’t withstand it. Young Master Ye, you’ve just entered the No Dao realm, and your foundation isn’t particularly stable. So, with your current strength, it’s hard to bear this lightning.”
Hard to bear.
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then said, “That means, in the No Dao realm, I’m not particularly powerful, right?”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye nodded. “Young Master Ye has at least just entered the No Dao realm, without even cultivating the heavenly eye…”
At that point, it didn’t continue.
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile.
Just a beginner.
At that moment, the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye added, “Of course, if Young Master Ye wants to break through now, I can open a back door for you, but I don’t recommend it.”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. “I understand what you mean.”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye nodded and said no more.
Ye Xuan suddenly said, “How do I cultivate the Heavenly Dao Eye?”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye looked at the Great Dao Pen. “He should know better.”
Ye Xuan looked at the Great Dao Pen. The Great Dao Pen said gravely, “To cultivate the Heavenly Dao Eye isn’t difficult. It just requires enduring some hardship.”
Ye Xuan smiled. “I’m not afraid of hardship.”
The Great Dao Pen nodded. “Then let this Heavenly Dao Divine Eye help.”
Ye Xuan was stunned. “How so?”
The Great Dao Pen said, “Have it lower the power of the Dao lightning to help you cultivate the Heavenly Dao Eye. Not only can you cultivate the Heavenly Dao Eye, but you can also cultivate the Heavenly Dao Body, a very powerful physique. Someone cultivated it before. In the same realm, it’s basically invincible, because peers can’t break your defence.”
Ye Xuan was immediately excited. “That powerful?”
The Great Dao Pen said, “Yes. If you can endure hardship, you can cultivate the Heavenly Dao Body, but you’ll need many precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures.”
Ye Xuan said, “Do you have the cultivation method?”
The Great Dao Pen smiled. “Of course.”
Ye Xuan’s lips curved slightly. “Heavenly materials and earthly treasures are easy to handle.”
With that, he opened his palm. A transmission talisman rose slowly, then burned in the starry sky. Moments later, the talisman vanished.
Soon, An You appeared before Ye Xuan. An You handed Ye Xuan a storage ring. “Young Master Ye.”
Ye Xuan took the storage ring. Inside were all sorts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
At that moment, the Great Dao Pen suddenly said, “Have that Dan Chen girl refine them into Limitless Golden Pills, a special pill from the Great Dao Pill Scripture. This pill is perfect for cultivating the Heavenly Dao Body.”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly, then handed the ring to An You. “Give these to Miss Dan Chen, and have her refine Limitless Golden Pills for me. If she needs anything, you must cooperate fully.”
An You bowed respectfully. “Understood.”
With that, he took the pills and turned to leave.
In place, Ye Xuan looked at the Heavenly Dao Divine Eye in the sky, then smiled. “I’ll need your cooperation then. No problem, right?”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye was speechless.
Problem?
What problem could it have?
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye immediately said, “I’ll cooperate with Young Master Ye then.”
Ye Xuan nodded. “You can go now.”
The Heavenly Dao Divine Eye nodded, then turned and vanished.
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Little Pen, in the end, all realms are related to your master.”
The Great Dao Pen smiled. “Of course. Later on, all realms were created by my master. One could say that after the No Dao realm, every advancement requires passing the master’s test. The further you go, the more they’ll realise how terrifying the master is.”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. “Indeed.”
The Great Dao Pen continued, “I think you can go to more powerful places. Here, you’re already invincible. There’s not much point.”
Ye Xuan’s face darkened. “You don’t understand.”
With that, he turned and left.
Great Dao Pen: “…”
…
Since he had to wait for the pills, Ye Xuan temporarily chose not to cultivate. He decided to go back and continue reading.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, half a month went by, and now it was time for the true disciple assessment.
On this day, all inner courtyard students gathered in a square.
It had to be said, Galaxy Academy had quite a few students. Just the inner courtyard had over a thousand.
Ye Xuan naturally came to the arena. Beside him was Xing Ling.
Ye Xuan glanced around, then smiled. “Very lively.”
Xing Ling nodded. “Yes. Every true disciple assessment is the liveliest time in the inner courtyard, because it could change their fate. The treatment between inner courtyard students and true disciples differs greatly. Moreover, becoming a true disciple means apprenticing under an ancient titan. Once you become a student of an ancient titan, not only will you soar, but your family will also gain huge benefits. Outside, the weight of an ancient titan is immense.”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. “One person attains the Dao, and the whole family ascends.”
Xing Ling smiled. “Yes.”
At that moment, Xue Bai and Xue Tong approached Ye Xuan and Xing Ling. Xue Bai smiled. “Brother Ye, Miss Xing.”
Ye Xuan looked at Xue Bai and smiled. “Brother Xue.”
Xue Bai nodded slightly, then smiled. “Brother Ye has confidence in becoming a true disciple, right?”
Ye Xuan blinked, then said, “A little bit.”
Xue Bai laughed heartily. “Brother Ye is being modest. With Brother Ye’s strength, becoming a true disciple isn’t effortless?”
Ye Xuan shook his head with a smile. “Keep a low profile, low profile.”
Xue Bai: “…”
Beside him, Xue Tong suddenly smiled. “I’d like to see Young Master Ye’s high-profile side.”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily. “Better to keep a low profile. I’m not one to show off. I try to avoid pretending as much as possible…”
Everyone: “…”
