Chapter 89 Reunion (1)
Three more days passed, and Qian Yuhan cultivated for at least three hours each day to consolidate his cultivation. Now he was a true Soul Master!
At the same time, Qian Yuhan also told "Xue" that he had become a Soul Master. He also said that he would be setting off in a week... Ouyang Luoxue received the news that Qian Yuhan had broken through to the Soul Master level, and was naturally happy for him to become stronger. She wrote a reply to congratulate him and also sent him a few more Soul Ascension Pills.
Qian Yuhan was taken aback when she saw the five small boxes that were sent along with the envelope and read the contents of Ouyang Luoxue's letter: This "Xue" seems to have some things at home. She just sent the Soul Ascension Pill without saying a word... Could "Xue" really be her? This thought became clearer and clearer in Qian Yuhan's mind. She must ask her when she gets to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
Qian Yuhan knew this cultivation was crucial, so before officially beginning, he quickly took out a Soul-Ascending Pill from his medicine box. Without hesitation, he put the pill in his mouth. The moment it entered his throat, a strange sensation spread throughout his body. At first, it was just a slight itch, but soon the itching surged like a tidal wave, as if countless ants were crawling and gnawing at his skin, making him want to scratch. However, Qian Yuhan knew he absolutely could not move at this moment; he had to focus all his energy on guiding the medicinal power through his body.
At the same time, he felt as if his meridians had been suddenly activated, frantically absorbing the powerful medicinal energy contained in the pill. This medicinal energy flowed rapidly through his meridians like a raging torrent, bringing wave after wave of intense pain and tingling sensations wherever it passed.
Time ticked by, and Qian Yuhan gritted her teeth, enduring the various discomforts coursing through her body, concentrating on controlling the flow of the medicine. Finally, after about an hour, the violent medicinal power gradually subsided, and Qian Yuhan slowly opened her eyes.
When he looked inward, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his soul power had successfully increased to level 44! Qian Yuhan never expected to achieve such an amazing result. At this moment, Qian Yuhan felt his body was full of power. While he was happy about his increased soul power, he was also thinking about how his good brothers in the dormitory were doing and what level they had reached in their cultivation.
Within the vast and picturesque Heavenly Dou Empire, amidst a range of majestic and towering mountains, stands a mysterious and ancient sect. This sect, like a dazzling pearl, is nestled among these layered peaks, exuding an aura of awe.
From afar, one could see a magnificent couplet written in bold, flowing strokes on either side of the sect's main gate: "The name of Haotian shakes the eight wastelands; for a thousand ages, Mount Sumeru reaches the peak of ten thousand souls." These fourteen powerful characters leaped from the paper like dragons and tigers, each stroke revealing boundless majesty and domineering power. Moreover, the flowing, elegant script further enhanced the sense of grace and freedom.
Looking further up, a huge plaque hangs directly above the sect's main gate, with the three gleaming gold characters "Haotian Sect" meticulously engraved on it using a gold-stamping technique. Under the sunlight, the three characters shimmer with dazzling light, as if proclaiming to the world the sect's past glory and honor.
It's important to understand that the renowned Clear Sky Sect is a reclusive sect within the Heaven Dou Empire. Back then, if it hadn't chosen to retreat into seclusion and instead re-emerged, its status would undoubtedly have rivaled that of the famous Ice God Sect. Unfortunately, for some unknown reasons, the Clear Sky Sect ultimately decided to remain hidden from the world, no longer involved in martial arts affairs. However, even so, many Clear Sky Sect disciples still roam the world, making a name for themselves on the continent through their exceptional strength and unique martial spirits. Therefore, despite its long period of seclusion, the name "Clear Sky Sect" continues to be passed down through generations across the continent, becoming an enduring legend.
In particular, the powerful Clear Sky Hammer martial soul is known to all, and everyone who sees it is afraid of it and would never dare to easily provoke someone who possesses such a martial soul.
Beside the majestic and solemn gates of the Haotian Sect, there stands a towering mountain range that reaches into the clouds. At its summit, two men stand facing each other, emanating powerful auras. A thrilling duel is about to unfold. Upon closer inspection, these two are none other than Qian Yuhan's two elder brothers—Tang Xuan and Tang Chen!
Tang Xuan landed firmly on the boulder atop the mountain peak. He took a deep breath, and his soul power surged forth like a raging torrent. In an instant, a powerful aura erupted from beneath his feet, shooting straight into the sky. At the same time, a dazzling bolt of lightning flashed, and then, an enormous Heavenly Thunder Hammer, crackling with lightning, appeared out of thin air above his right hand. With lightning-fast reflexes, Tang Xuan gripped the hammer handle tightly and swung it forcefully, easily hoisting the Heavenly Thunder Hammer onto his broad, sturdy shoulder. Three soul rings—two yellow and one purple—appeared around him.
Just then, Tang Chen on the other side was not to be outdone. His eyes widened, and he roared, "Come!" With this roar, three dazzling spirit rings rapidly rose from beneath his feet. Two of them were bright yellow, while the last one shone with a mysterious and profound purple light. As the spirit rings appeared, the entire mountain seemed to tremble violently, beginning to shake slightly. Moreover, the ground in front of Tang Chen couldn't bear the weight, and fine cracks appeared, spreading visibly. In the center of this cracked land, a massive, ancient-looking, earth-shaking Clear Sky Hammer, its body entirely earthen yellow, slowly rose, as if born from the depths of the earth. Tang Chen extended his right hand, gently holding the hammer handle, then lifted his right foot and firmly stepped onto the hammer's body. At this moment, he exuded an unparalleled domineering aura, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.
After exchanging a glance, the two refrained from further conversation. Each gripped their incredibly heavy hammers tightly, and with a burst of speed, they charged towards each other like arrows released from a bow.
In that instant, the powerful aura emanating from the two seemed to tear the entire world apart. They unleashed their full power without reservation, showing no mercy or hesitation simply because the other was their own brother.
One of them wielded a Haotian Hammer that flashed with dazzling lightning, each swing accompanied by a deafening thunderclap, its power as unrestrained and bold as a thunderbolt; while the other person's Haotian Hammer emitted an earthy yellow light, giving people a sense of stability, weight, and majesty.
When the two Haotian Hammers collided violently in mid-air, time seemed to stand still for a moment. Immediately afterwards, a tremendous energy shockwave spread outwards from the point of impact. The thick snow that had accumulated around the mountaintop was instantly swept up by this powerful impact, swirling and falling like goose feathers.
In an instant, the entire mountain peak was shrouded in a hazy mist, making it difficult to see what was happening inside. Numerous disciples from various sects had already gathered before the gate, watching this thrilling duel between brothers with bated breath. However, due to the pervasive mist, they could only vaguely see clusters of blue and yellow light constantly intertwining and colliding, with bursts of enormous energy erupting from them every now and then, forming sharp shockwaves that swept outwards. Even these outward energy surges alone were enough to make everyone realize that the intensity of this battle was beyond imagination.
About half an hour later, the commotion seemed to stop. When the snow fog dissipated, the two men, leaning on their hammers and panting heavily, looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
"Brother, you've made great progress!"
"Brother, you're not bad either—"
……
Surrounded by numerous disciples from various sects, the brothers Tang Xuan and Tang Chen slowly stepped through the magnificent and solemn gates of the Haotian Sect. However, as they entered the sect, they were surprised to find two familiar figures standing there. Tang Xuan looked closely and felt a surge of warmth; these two were none other than their homeroom teacher and combat instructor from the academy!
The two teachers greeted Tang Xuan and Tang Chen with smiles, then got straight to the point, explaining the purpose of their visit. It turned out that Tang Xuan and Tang Chen had already received the academy's notification regarding their exchange program at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and the Clear Sky Sect had no objections and expressed its support. Therefore, the two teachers had come in person today specifically to inform them of the specific departure time and thoughtfully advised them to return early to make the necessary preparations.
Upon hearing the news, Tang Xuan and Tang Chen exchanged a knowing smile, understanding each other perfectly. They shared the same thought—to return to the academy as soon as possible and begin preparations for this important exchange program. So, after seeing their teacher off, the two brothers turned and headed straight for their bedrooms without another word.
For the entire afternoon, Tang Xuan and Tang Chen were busy packing their luggage, organizing books and documents in their respective rooms. They carefully checked that everything they needed to bring was complete, afraid of forgetting anything crucial. Before they knew it, the sun was setting and darkness was falling, but the two brothers remained immersed in their tense yet organized preparations.
Finally, all their belongings were packed. Filled with anticipation and excitement, Tang Xuan and Tang Chen went to bed early to rest and recharge, ready to embark on their new journey the next morning…
