FOUR MONTHS LATER
Wei Yuan diligently cultivated in these four months. He knew that his body now needed a lot more Qi than usual. He cultivated so much that he even forgot to sleep sometimes. He was able to keep his normal cultivation pace in this way and reached the seventh stage of Foundation Establishment.
The fight with Yao Yunmeng was just a one week away. She successfully broke through to the eighth stage of Core formation. This speed was amazing, but still not enough to beat the strongest core disciple of the Xun continent. As for who was the strongest? The strongest was the rising star of the Xun continent, Wei Yun!
Wei Yuan slowly opened his dark eyes and stood up. There was a lot of sweat on his naked upper body. That was because he pushed himself too much. He decided to stop for now and take a break. He knew that his cultivation pace will deteriorate, if he gets too tired. He also only pushed himself this far, because seventh stage of Foundation Establishment was the minimum he needed.
Wei Yuan slept for seven hours and woke up refreshed than ever, his new cultivation stage became solid. It was time to start his plans. He knew how to reach Core formation stage in one week. It was a risky and cruel plan, but he didn't care. It was all in order to become stronger.
He walked out of the library and started walking through the mountain peaks till he reached the mission hall. He stepped inside and saw dozens of inner and outer disciples. Everyone looked at him strangely. No one knew his identity anymore. It was understandable, he shut himself inside the library for months and only came out for max one hour. Not only that, but even his appearance changed
No one recognized him except the elder of the mission hall who saw Wei Yuan a few times already. He became surprised and frowned. This young man always does things with a reason. Thus, it was almost hundred percent that he came here in order to take a mission or to speak with someone. The latter was less likely since Wei Yuan was a loner who almost never spoke to others. The elder deducted that Wei Yuan was here to take away a mission.
He was right, Wei Yuan walked there and choose a mission. It was a mission to kill beasts and collect beast cores. This mission was usually for Qi condensation cultivators. They can practice while killing wild beasts. Surprisingly, Wei Yuan wanted to take this mission first, but changed his mind and choose a harder mission. He only did this because he knew that choosing an easy mission was too suspicius and everyone will know that he just needed a mission to leave the sect that way. Thus, he choose a harder mission.
The elder gave him a mission, but still frowned.
"Your fight with Yao Yunmeng is coming, yet you still take these missions. I don't know what's your reason to do this and I don't care because we decided to not force out your secrets, but I still recommend you to not waste your time with these missions."
"Don't worry Elder Feng, I never wasted my time and I never will"
Wei Yuan walked out of the mission hall after he said this. The disciples inside the hall took a deep breath. Even the elder breathed a bit faster after he left. The pressure around Wei Yuan getting stronger day by day. The elder sighed.
"I always feel the pressure around this guy. I wonder how can he do this. WAIT, how does he know my name?"
The elder realized what happened after Wei Yuan left. He never mentioned his name to other disciples, yet Wei Yuan still knew it. The elder frowned, but just shook his head soon after that. He knew that Wei Yuan did his own research. He probably gathered a good amount of information. This also means that he doesn't trust in the sect.
Wei Yuan currently running towards the wastelands. It was not far away luckily. Wei Yuan can stay here for a day and then come back and fight Yao Yunmeng just in time. It was not far away, but still took around 2 days to get there. He needed to go through Black Rock city first. This caused Wei Yuan to remember when he first visited that city.
The city was packed with cultivators at that time because of the entrance exams, but this doesn't mean that the city became silent after that. It was still a city. Wei Yuan ran 8 hours straight without stopping and finally reached the gates of Black Rock city.
The guards stopped him and he showed them the token of the Tranquil Dragon sect.
"Ohh you are a guest from the Tranqial Dragon sect. Sorry for bothering you."
The guards let Wei Yuan enter the city without bothering him after this. Tranquil Dragon sect was a peak power on the Xun continent. Not many dared to offend this power. Wei Yuan walked inside the city and found the same inn he was in when he was here for the first time. He also found the same administrator.
Wei Yuan asked for a cheap room and immediately walked inside and started sleeping. He decided to sleep early and wake up early because he wanted to go shopping. He was busy with cultivating and studying and it was a good chance to catch up on things. Gathering information and buying materials.
