Lin Yang stood up slowly. He adjusted his robes, expression calm and collected, as if the earlier turbulence had never existed.
His bearing returned to its usual composure—cold, domineering, and precise.
Nearby, Yunxi had already finished arranging herself. Her movements were efficient as she wears her clothes and adjusted her appearance. She carefully lifted Lu Mingyi's unconscious figure, sealing her with a layer of gentle Yin light to stabilize her condition, then turned toward the exit.
Yunxi said softly. "I will go attend those matters about her lover."
Lin Yang nodded once.
The door closed, and the chamber returned to silence.
Lin Yang sat down cross-legged and prepare to cultivate for some time.
Even though he could directly increase his cultivation through lust points, he knew better than to rely solely on shortcuts. His body had undergone rapid changes—bloodline fusion, physique resonance, realm advancement.
The red spirit energy slowly surged out of his dantian, lingering with the power of a deep dragon. When this energy flowed within his meridians, it changed—condensing, refining and roaring soundlessly, as if an invisible dragon.
The faint phantom of blood dragon appeared behind him.
Lin Yang let out a slow breath.
The aura that surrounded him began violently agitating, then suddenly steadied. Moreover, his cultivation process did not go up in a rash manner. It rather proceeded with grim consistency, as if every step was predestined long in the past.
His bones shone with a faint blood-crafted jade. His meridians widened and hardened. His Soul Sea grew by almost a third in size.
This is because the Profound Yin Origin Essence that he had refined prior would have fully integrated into his foundation—if not a hindrance, then sustenance.
His Divine Origin Yang Physique consumed it casually, purifying the impurities, cleansing the hidden wounds caused by previous breakthroughs and honing his foundation to almost perfection.
His cultivation continue for next few hours before a knock appear om the door.
His crimson eyes gradually opened. He slowly got up and merged all surrounding spiritual energy into his body. His aura no longer burst out violently, yet higher realm cultivator would have to bow him.
"Come in."
The doors to the chamber swung open and Sect Master Yunxi entered.
She was already dressed properly, her snowy locks flowing behind her, her face solemn and not seductive.
"We've find about Xiao Dong completely."
She greeted him before speaking him respectfully. Even through they had shared night together, she did not forget about his higher status.
"Oh then tell me."
Lin Yang raised an eyebrow.
"Xiao Dong comes from a small family with barren land of Western Region. His family is not worth attention as even in their whole family, the strongest person is his father with Spirit Condensing Realm.
At age twenty, he could merely cultivate to Qi Refining Realm, and he has no special talent."
She paused for few moments and speak again.
"Then suddenly everything changed."
Lin Yang smiled faintly. 'as expected...'
"His cultivation become extremely fast and he could able to even fight across his realm. Five years ago, he won an alchemist competition and achieved Fifth-Tier Alchemist status. This spread his fame far across the western region.
Then he come central region. Later on, some rumors began to circulate about his discipleship to one of Great Elders of Medicine Valley."
Her eyes filled with astonished as how his small status changed overnight and far ahead than most of young people. Medicine Valley is top tier sect in whole central realm.
"He later subdued two different Heavenly Flames."
At this point, even Yunxi couldn't hide her shock.
"And recently, it had confirmed that he has already stepped into the high stages of Nirvana Realm, only twenty-five years old!"
An utter silence filled the chamber. Any cultivator in the lower realm would consider this a miracle.
'That's the usual formula.' he could not help but think in his heart. 'Flames, alchemy, rapid expansion, medicine path protagonist. I would even believe if his master was in Soul state and teach him from black ring.'
He asked something important about flames, he had possessed. "What about those Heavenly flames?"
"Its known by most of people; Vermillion Blood Heavenly Flame and Burning Star Heavenly Flame."
Lin Yang's eyes briefly flickered before he relaxed. "Neither is ranked among the Top Thirty Heavenly Flames."
He had some knowledge about flames in this world. As long as he knows, there are three types of flames existed under Heaven and Earth. First and weakest one is Beast Flames, that is obtained from Yao beasts and spiritual plants.
Then is Spiritual Flames, that is more powerful than beast flames. They created by nature's power, this is different rank and power as depend on the world it existed.
And most powerful types of flames is Heavenly Flames. They are extremely rare powerful flames, possessed sentient, formed from primal energies. they grant immense power, unique abilities and are crucial for alchemists and cultivators.
Heavenly flames are comparable to top existence of Great Dao, no matter which world they are, there power and potential is unmatched under heaven.
There is list called Heavenly Flames List, created by ancient beings of universe. This not only only contain top powerful Heavenly flames, but ranked them according to their power, potential and ability.
But among Heavenly Flames, only the top thirty were truly terrifying—existences with limitless growth potential. Even Supreme experts would slaughter each other for a single one.
He remembered clearly—
In upper realm almost fifty years ago, a Heavenly Flame ranked in top thirty had appeared in an auction hosted by the Moon Spirit Chamber, the strongest commercial power in Tianxi Continent.
The price paid had shaken the heavens.
It had nearly triggered a war between experts above the Supreme Realm.
Compared to that— Vermillion Blood and Burning Star Flames were decent… but not much.
'They're not worth my attention.' His eyes slowly turned upwards, before he looked back at her.
Yunxi nodded at him. "Currently, Xiao Dong remains in Medicine Valley. We've also stationed people to guard Yin Spirit Mountain, as you instructed."
"Good," Lin Yang said.
He stood up, eyes cold and composed.
"Continue monitoring him." Lin Yang's lips turned up slightly. "Put all things that concern him under observation.
Lin Yang closed his eyes again as she was turning to leave.
