Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2153

It was only at this moment that she realized that the young man before her had undergone a drastic change in both his disposition and strength.

“Low-tier Celestial God realm pinnacle? You made a breakthrough? ”

Qi Ling-er felt a little light-headed.

“I managed to make a breakthrough due to some fortuitous encounter,” Zhang Xuan replied calmly.

Qi Ling-er clutched her chest in disbelief.

This was too much of a blow to her.

A few days ago, you were only a low-tier God realm pinnacle cultivator, right?

How long had it been since you made a breakthrough to the Celestial God realm?

Three whole realms in total!

Was it possible for a God Monarch bloodline cultivator to be so domineering?

Was it possible for a God Monarch bloodline cultivator to ignore the rules of cultivation?

More importantly, the young man’s attitude! The Celestial God realm that others viewed as unbreakable was no different from an ordinary Celestial God realm cultivator to him.

Just this in itself made her even more certain of Qi Ling-er’s identity.

Other than a God Monarch bloodline cultivator, who else could possibly be so powerful?

…

As one of the most powerful clans in Royal City, the Qi Clan was situated on a floating mountain. They rented an aerial divine beast and flew straight into the sky.

Standing together with Qi Ling-er, Zhang Xuan was able to clearly see her true strength … high-tier God realm pinnacle!

While she was not as powerful as him, her bloodline as a Conferred God King was not to be underestimated.

“We are all from the same clan, so shouldn’t we be united against outsiders?”

Zhang Xuan asked in bewilderment.

Since they were all core members of the Qi Clan, it was only natural for them to be closely related by blood. Why would they still find each other an eyesore and intentionally suppress one another?

“There has never been any internal strife in the past. As a Conferred God King, the resources available to him were practically unlimited, so there was no conflict of interest.

However, forty years ago, the spiritual energy in the area began to decline, and the resources available to us were severely limited. Naturally, the relationship between the two clans deteriorated. “Twenty years ago, Qi Ling-er and I were in a conflict over resources, and her father was killed in an accident. That’s why they hold a grudge against us, so they won’t let us off so easily.”

“I see.”

Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.

With the decline of the spiritual energy and the scarcity of resources, even blood brothers would fight one another, let alone fellow clansmen.

This was human nature!

“In the past, our branch was relatively stronger than them, so they didn’t dare to say anything. However, as her elder brother rose to power, they could only watch helplessly as he suppressed us,” Qi Ling-er shook her head as she thought about the situation she had been in over the past few years.

If she was still in the clan, she would have broken through to the Heavenly Deity Realm long ago. She would not have been trapped in this realm for so long.

“Qi Wei ‘er’s brother, who has the bearing of a Godly King, tell me the details!” Zhang Xuan said.

Just the fact that Zhang Xuan was judged to have the potential to become a God King was more than enough to show how talented he was.

“Her brother’s name is Qi Yue, and his bloodline is even purer than the average person’s. Not only so, regardless of whether it is a cultivation technique or a battle technique, it will become extremely simple in his hands, allowing him to improve quickly. Not only has he reached the pinnacle of high-tier Celestial God realm, but he’s also ranked seventh on the Board of Potential God Kings! ”

A hint of admiration could be seen in Qi Ling-er’s eyes.

Although they were enemies, this Qi Yue’s talent and strength made him speechless.

Zhang Xuan was puzzled. “List of Potential Divine Kings?”

“It’s a ranking of the experts who have the potential to become God Kings in Drifting Specter Royal City. Even though most of those who are ranked on the list fail, it’s still a testament to their strength and standing. Every single one of them is respected and worshipped,” Qi Ling-er said.

“If he’s ranked seventh, doesn’t that mean that there are six others who are stronger than him?” Zhang Xuan was perplexed.

The Qi Clan had a Conferred God King, and it was one of the most powerful clans in Drifting Specter Royal City. Yet, their most talented descendant was only ranked seventh on the Board of Potential God Kings …

“Don’t underestimate him!” Knowing what Zhang Xuan was thinking, Qi Ling-er said grimly, “A Celestial God’s lifespan is around a thousand years. Those who are ranked in the top six must have lived for at least five hundred years. It’s already frightening that Qi Yue is able to reach his current level despite being in his early forties. Who can guarantee that he won’t be ranked first in another fifty or even a hundred years? ”

Zhang Xuan was rendered speechless.

The younger one was, the greater one’s potential would be.

For someone who was ranked seventh before his forties, the chances of him becoming a God King were many times higher than the sixth.

“Young Master Zhang, have you concocted the pill that will allow me to withstand the energy of the Lucid Lunar Lake?”

After flying for a while longer, Qi Ling-er couldn’t help but ask.

Since Qi Ling-er had agreed to come over right away, she hadn’t seen the process of him concocting the pill. Could it be that he hadn’t done it yet? If that was the case, she would have to wait a little longer.

“There’s no need to rush. I’ll have to take a look at the Lucid Lunar Lake first before I can concoct the pill. Otherwise, I won’t be able to bring out the full potential of the pill,” Zhang Xuan replied casually.

“Alright then …” Seeing how confident the young man was, Qi Ling-er nodded.

It didn’t take long for the aerial celestial beast to cover a distance of over a thousand li. Soon, a towering mountain shrouded in clouds appeared before their eyes.

Unlike other mountain ranges, this mountain seemed to have been flipped upside down. Its bottom was sharp, and its top was as flat as a mirror. A majestic manor could be seen on top of it, and countless cranes could be seen flying around it. Bathed in the light of the rainbow, it looked like the residence of a celestial being.

As expected of one of the most powerful clans in Drifting Specter Royal City, it was indeed extraordinary!

“There’s a formation in the surroundings?”

Activating his Eye of Insight, Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.

He could clearly sense the presence of a formation in the surroundings, but his Eye of Insight was unable to discern anything at all.

After becoming a Celestial God, his Eye of Insight had improved significantly as well. If he was unable to discern anything at all, it could only mean that the formation in the surroundings was extremely powerful. Most likely, it was the doing of the Conferred God King himself.

“There’s indeed a formation in place, but don’t worry. It’s able to discern one’s bloodline automatically.

Qi Ling-er replied.

Zhang Xuan nodded, not asking too much about it.

Just as Qi Ling-er had said, the aerial celestial beast didn’t trigger the formation as soon as it entered the vicinity of the mountain. It didn’t take long for it to arrive before a massive door.

“Big Sis Ling-er, you’re back!”

The two young men guarding the door recognized Qi Ling-er and walked up to her with smiles on their faces.

“I wish to meet the clan head,” Qi Ling-er said.

“This way, please.”

One of the young men shot a glance at Zhang Xuan before leading the way without saying anything.

As soon as they entered the residence, Zhang Xuan immediately felt concentrated spiritual energy seeping into his skin. He couldn’t help but feel an urge to sit down and cultivate.

As expected of the residence of a Conferred God King, the spiritual energy in the Royal City was nothing compared to it.

Even without a high-tier God Essence Pill, he would be able to achieve a breakthrough to middle-tier Celestial God within a short period of time.

Following behind the young man, they soon arrived before a majestic hall. Not too long later, the two of them walked in.

A middle-aged man stood at the center of the hall with his hands behind his back.

The two of them were standing by the side.

The man was in his thirties while the woman was around Qi Ling-er’s age. She was dressed in tight-fitting clothes that accentuated her perfect figure. Surprisingly, she didn’t pale in comparison to Qi Ling-er at all.

“Clan head!”

Qi Ling-er clasped her fist and bowed deeply. Zhang Xuan knew that he was here to freeload off the Lunar Clearlake, so he didn’t say anything.

“Un.” The clan head nodded. “Even though Twilight City is located in the most remote region of the Sky of Drifting Specter, it holds great strategic significance. I instructed you to stand guard there and gather information. Without permission, you aren’t allowed to return. How did you manage to sneak in without anyone noticing? If not for Qi Ling-er informing me, no one in the clan would have known about it. ”

Even though his voice wasn’t loud, it carried an air of authority that made it difficult for those who heard it to breathe.

God King realm expert!

Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in astonishment.

Even though the other party hadn’t displayed his strength yet, he still felt unfathomable. It was as if his every move was in accordance with the will of the heavens, and anyone who dared to go against it would be severely punished.

Retracting his consciousness back into his body, Zhang Xuan lowered his head and remained motionless, retracting his spirit, essence, and spirit.

He had only come for the Lucid Lunar Pool, so he didn’t want to get into an argument with a Divine King.

As such, the clan head didn’t notice anything amiss with him. Thinking that he was just Qi Ling-er’s attendant, he didn’t pay him any heed.

“Clan head, I …” Feeling the pressure emanating from the other party, Qi Ling-er couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. She was just about to speak when the clan head’s voice sounded once more. “I’ll give you a chance to explain yourself. If your reason doesn’t satisfy me, you should know the consequences.”

“Yes …”

Qi Ling-er took a deep breath before replying with gritted teeth, “Due to a fortuitous encounter, my body underwent a complete transformation. That’s why I came back and requested to enter the Lucid Lunar Lake to temper myself.”

“Don’t you think that your reason is too lame?”

While the clan head was silent, the lady beside him sneered coldly. “A person’s talent is determined at birth. Do you think that your talent can still be improved?”

Core disciples were given three chances to enter the Lucid Lunar Lake to temper themselves, and Qi Ling-er had only used the first time. Under normal circumstances, she should have been able to apply for a second time, but given how poor her results were the first time, what was there to test?

After all, one’s talent couldn’t possibly change just because of a period of time!

“I also think that my talent can’t be improved, but … I believe that the clan head should be able to tell the truth,” Qi Ling-er replied calmly.

The reason why she felt that Zhang Xuan would be able to help her was because after consuming the Beauty Pill, not only had her trauma been resolved, but her constitution had also undergone some changes as well. Her zhenqi flow was much faster than before.

“Improved your talent?”

The clan head shook his head. “I’m not satisfied with that reason.”

“Clan head, you can give it a try,” Qi Ling-er said.

“Give it a try? How do you intend to test one’s talent? “the lady beside her sneered.

While it was possible to test one’s strength and techniques, how could one test one’s talent?

“Simple … You can impart to me the same battle technique, and Sister Ling-er and I will study it for an hour at the same time. After that, we’ll suppress our cultivation to the same level and compete with one another. The one who comprehends the battle technique more profound will be the one with the higher talent.

Qi Ling-er replied with a smile.

As someone who had managed the black market for so many years without any problems, she wasn’t a person who would take advantage of others. She had already thought of a way to teach the other party a lesson before coming here.
