342 I'm About To Leave
"Oh?" When Ye Xuan heard this, he raised his brows slightly and looked at Shangguan Wan'er with a mysterious gaze.
"Perhaps you still trust me now, but once you awaken all of your memories, you may not think the same way anymore."
"A teacher for a day is a teacher for life!" Shangguan Wan'er said with a determined look.
"Oh? Why do I remember that the saying was supposed to be a teacher for a day is a father for life?" Ye Xuan said teasingly.
Hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er's face stiffened.
He wanted to be her father now?
Looking at Shangguan Wan'er's expression, Ye Xuan was amused.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. You should stabilize your cultivation foundation since the epiphany hasn't ended yet."
"Ten days later, head over to the Nanzhou Region and do something on my behalf."
Ye Xuan smiled and stopped teasing Shangguan Wan'er. Then, he brought up some serious business.
Thanks to the power of karma, Ye Xuan knew that the Nanzhou Region would be attacked by the sea race and faced the threat of destruction.
He owed the Gongsun family a favor. If they wanted to survive, they most likely had to use the spiritual sense jade token he had given them.
However, Ye Xuan was tied up now. The opportunity in the endless sea involved the passage to the upper world, and he absolutely could not miss this opportunity.
With Shangguan Wan'er's current strength, she would be able to defeat anyone below the King realm.
In addition, with the trump cards Ye Xuan had left her, even if a great emperor realm expert made a move, she would be able to survive.
Having her handle this matter was the best solution he had.
Five days later, Ye Xuan's spiritual sense became stronger, and he once again regained perfect control over his own power.
After that, Ye Xuan called his disciples over and performed spiritual power infusion, as well as gave them heavenly treasures and cultivation resources.
Based on what the power of karma told him, he would be leaving the Tianyuan continent soon. At that time, he would not be able to accompany his disciples any longer.
Before that, Ye Xuan had to do his best to give them powerful trump cards and improve the strength of his disciples as much as possible.
However, the spiritual power in Ye Xuan's dantian was as vast as the ocean, no less than that of a second-level great emperor.
Among his disciples, only Shangguan Wan'er, who had awakened the Undying Xuan Huang sword physique, could withstand a little more spiritual power than the other three. freёweɓnovel.com
"Ding! As the host has infused spiritual power into his disciple, amounting to 1,188 days' worth of cultivation, the host has received a randomized 16x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained 19,008 days' worth of cultivation!"
"Ding! As the host has infused spiritual power into his disciple, amounting to 1,887 days' worth of cultivation, the host has received a randomized 36x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained 67,932 days' worth of cultivation!"
"Ding! As the host has infused spiritual power into his disciple, amounting to 2,000 days' worth of cultivation, the host has received a randomized 35x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained 70,000 days' worth of cultivation!"
"Ding! As the host has infused spiritual power into his disciple, amounting to 7,884 days' worth of cultivation, the host has received a randomized 19x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained 149,796 days' worth of cultivation!"
After the spiritual power infusions, Ye Xuan's strength increased greatly again. Even among second-level great emperors, he was definitely one of the strongest.
After that, it was time for the other stuff.
"Ding! As the host has given his disciple the supreme emperor divine pill (eighth-grade pill) to his disciple, the host has received a randomized 3x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained the dragon transformation divine pill (eighth-grade pill)!"
"Ding! As the host has given his disciple the dragon transformation divine pill (eighth-grade pill)…"
"Ding! As the host has taught his disciple the freedom spiritual sense tempering technique, the host has received a randomized 18x critical reward. Congratulations! The host has obtained the great freedom spiritual sense tempering technique!"
…
Ye Xuan continued to give and teach them stuff. There was an extremely high chance that he would leave the Tianyuan continent, and would not meet again for a long time.
His disciples were quite confused by his actions.
Although they knew that their teacher was a human-shaped mobile treasure vault, he had never given them so many rare treasures at once before.
It was a shocking amount!
"My precious disciples, I might have to leave the Tianyuan continent soon," Ye Xuan explained.
When they heard this, they froze.
What? Teacher was leaving the Tianyuan continent?
Could it be that his cultivation level was about to break through the shackles of the great emperor realm and ascend?
"You should all know that if one wants to leave the Tianyuan continent, one must surpass the shackles of the great emperor realm. However, I have another way to leave!"
"My time with the Tianyuan continent ends here. The upper world is where I must go next," Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"But you don't have to worry. With the heavenly treasures and cultivation resources I've left behind, you'll definitely be able to reach the great emperor realm in the future."
"Perhaps one day, we will be reunited."
Among his current disciples, other than Shangguan Wan'er, who was rather powerful, the others were comparatively weaker, though not in terms of potential.
Each and every one of them had the potential to reach the great emperor realm!
Furthermore, with the life-saving trump cards he left behind, even a third-level great emperor would not be able to harm them.
"My precious disciples, I'll be waiting for you in the upper world. In the future, you must cultivate well and never relax."
Ye Xuan saw the reluctance in his disciples' eyes and his heart was filled with emotion.
Through the power of karma, Ye Xuan could vaguely see the future of the Tianyuan continent. There were four great empresses with terrifying auras suppressing the era and leading the human race to become the absolute ruler of the Tianyuan continent.
Not only that, Shangguan Wan'er would comprehend the highest level of slaughter intent and become the terrifying Empress of Slaughter.
After that, because of him, she almost annihilated the sea race alone.
343 Crisis In The Nanzhou Region
"Teacher!" Zhao Yuyan looked at Ye Xuan with teary eyes.
Out of the group, Zhao Yuyan was the youngest, and the time she had spent cultivating was also the shortest. Most of the time, she was with Yue and Li Qingyan. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
The moment she learned that Ye Xuan was about to leave the Tianyuan continent, Zhao Yuyan's heart was filled with reluctance and sadness.
Before Ye Xuan left, he was either cultivating in seclusion.
Although his secluded cultivation might have lasted years, things were different now. Once Ye Xuan left the Tianyuan continent, she would not know when she would meet him again.
"Silly girl! You're already an adult, why do you still love to cry?"
Ye Xuan looked at Zhao Yuyan helplessly.
After all these years of cultivating, and with the help of Yue and Li Qingyan, Zhao Yuyan's personality had changed quite a bit. She no longer blamed herself for having harmed others due to the Demon Devourer Body, and was no longer easily bullied.
However, her tendency to cry had never changed.
Zhao Yuyan could not hold back the sadness in her heart and started crying. She threw herself into his arms.
"Teacher, can you not leave?"
"Or can you take me with you, Teacher?"
Zhao Yuyan's voice was choked.
This girl did not trust many people due to her childhood traumas. Other than her mother, she was closest to Ye Xuan, Yue, and a few others.
To Zhao Yuyan, not only was Ye Xuan her teacher, he was like a father to her. He had completely changed her fate.
"Silly girl! In the future, when I'm not around, you can't keep crying."
"Besides, I can't be by your side forever. You have to learn to grow on your own,"
"As long as you cultivate diligently, you'll naturally be able to see me in the upper world in the future."
Ye Xuan reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Zhao Yuyan's eyes.
"Teacher, I will definitely cultivate diligently!"
"I will definitely ascend to the upper world to find you!"
Zhao Yuyan looked up at Ye Xuan with her teary eyes, her expression firm.
"Mm! I believe that my precious disciple will definitely be able to do it!"
Ye Xuan smiled and patted the latter's head.
Although Yue and Li Qingyan did not say anything, their hearts were also filled with reluctance.
Given their current cultivation levels, it would take them at least several hundred years, perhaps even a thousand, to surpass the great emperor realm.
However, they were clear that they could not hinder their teacher's cultivation path.
'Teacher is right. He can't stay by our side forever. We have to learn to grow on our own.'
Beside him, Shangguan Wan'er was looking at Ye Xuan deeply, seemingly wanting to say something, but holding back.
"Silly girl! Don't be so sad. You're going to make me cry."
"The path of cultivation has always been one of separation and independence!"
"After leaving me, you will grow stronger and walk your own path."
Ye Xuan smiled and comforted her.
After that, Ye Xuan moved the Qingyun sect out and had Shangguan Wan'er put it into the Imprisonment Divine Tower.
The cultivation environment in these Divine Towers was far better than in the outside world, as the Divine Towers contained dense spiritual energy. Furthermore, some of them even contained martial intents.
In the past few years in the Tower of Heaven, the cultivation levels of the Qingyun sect cultivators had already undergone a major transformation.
Through the power of karma, Ye Xuan knew that only one person could pass through the realm passageway. He could not leave with his disciples, much less bring the Qingyun sect along.
After learning that Ye Xuan was about to leave, his disciples no longer had the mood to cultivate and stuck to Ye Xuan every day.
Five days passed quickly.
"Wan'er, you should set off."
Ye Xuan gazed into the distant space, and a mysterious light flashed across his eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Wan'er, who had been cultivating, suddenly opened her eyes, which flashed with sharp sword qi.
She wanted to return to the Nanzhou Region to kill the sea race experts and repay part of the debt she had to Ye Xuan.
"Wait!"
Just as Shangguan Wan 'er was about to turn and leave, Ye Xuan called out to her.
Shangguan Wan'er turned around, her gaze landing on Ye Xuan.
"Remember! After I leave, you must protect Yue and the others. Don't be impulsive!"
Ye Xuan smiled, and then, under Shangguan Wan'er's gaze, his figure suddenly disappeared.
"Teacher…"
When Shangguan Wan'er saw this, she muttered to herself in a daze.
"Teacher!"
Yue, Li Qingyan, and Zhao Yuyan also called out reluctantly.
However, Ye Xuan had really left.
"Teacher is gone. I should go do what needs to be done."
After a brief pause, Shangguan Wan'er's body transformed into a streak of lightning and disappeared.
At the same time, the Imprisonment Divine Tower also disappeared.
…
Thanks to the sea race's invasion, countless people died, and the Tianwu Zone soon fell.
Within the Nanzhou Region, many empires had fallen, together with their respective experts.
They were vastly outnumbered by the sea race army.
In the Nanzhou Region, in order to slow down the advance of the sea race army, the Myriad Swords Hall, Gongsun family, and other major factions all joined forces and gathered together to resist the sea race's invasion.
The land was filled with the stench of blood, and countless cultivators were engaged in a frenzied battle.
Furious roars and screams could be heard everywhere!
344 The Last Trump Card
The war between the two races destroyed everything in its path and turned everything into dust.
This was especially so for the weaker cultivators. Before they could even react, they were already torn to pieces by the attacks that were flying left and right.
Even the ordinary people could not escape annihilation.
"Damn it! The sea race's attack is too fierce. We can't resist them!"
"I'm afraid it won't be long before the Nanzhou Region falls!"
The sigh of an expert could be heard.
He was a fifth-level unity realm cultivator from the Gongsun family.
Currently, the various major forces had lost countless experts. In the long run, they might be completely annihilated.
As for small and medium-sized empires like the Great Qian Dynasty, they had long been drowned in the endless numbers of the sea race army.
"Keke! Why are you humans even trying to struggle? How can puny humans like you resist the power of the sea race?"
"Oh right! For you pattern condensation realm cultivators, if you lay down your arms and surrender, we'll spare your lives and make you our guard dogs!"
An expert from the sea sneered.
They had been very nervous about the attack on the Nanzhou Region, which was Ye Xuan's homeland.
However, what puzzled them was that after so many years, there was no sign of Ye Xuan at all.
The most important thing was that the sea race had once used Saint King realm experts to search for traces of Ye Xuan, but they had found nothing, which made them even more afraid of Ye Xuan's strength.
However, they did not dare to disobey the orders of the dragon race's great emperor realm expert.
Therefore, in order to avoid any sudden changes, they planned to conquer the Nanzhour Region as quickly as possible.
However, the human race had shown unusual unity in times of crisis. The various major forces resisted the sea race's attacks repeatedly.
Although the sea race had taken over most of the Nanzhou Region, there was still a pocket of territory that was holding on and defending stoutly.
"Damn it! Is the Nanzhou Region really going to be occupied by the sea race?"
A Zhuge family eighth-level unity realm expert clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were filled with unwillingness.
Although cultivators from other regions had come here to reinforce them, it was still insufficient to resist the sea race's endless numbers. Currently, it would take a miracle to save the Nanzhou Region.
"Do I really have to use that favor?"
A huge flood dragon gravely wounded the body of an old man.
However, as the thick lifeforce within his divine elements surged out, the old man's body quickly recovered.
And that old man was an elder from the Gongsun family, and a fifth-level unity realm cultivator.
Everyone fell silent after hearing the old man's words.
They naturally knew about the incident about the Nether God sect, and the fact that the Gongsun family had received the promise of a favor from Ye Xuan in exchange for their help.
However, Ye Xuan's strength was so terrifying that this favor was too precious. freēwēbnovel.com
"We haven't reached that stage yet!"
The elder of the Gongsun family erupted with strength as he fought the flood dragon.
The jade token Ye Xuan had given them was the last trump card of the Gongsun family, and they would never use it unless it was a life and death situation.
"Human! You're pretty strong!"
A Yaksha expert with a terrifying aura suddenly joined the battle, swinging his trident at him.
"Fine! I'll take you both on!"
The elder of the Gongsun family performed a number of hand seals to activate a martial technique to fight them.
With the passage of time, the war between the two races became more and more intense, and the situation of the human race became more and more tenuous.
Suddenly, space rippled, and a spatial crack appeared.
Jun Lingtian strode forward, his body covered in both his blood, as well as that of the sea race experts he had fought.
"Don't use the jade token yet!"
Jun Lingtian wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and looked at the grand elder of the Gongsun family not far away.
The grand elder was fighting with a flood dragon, and the fluctuations from their battle made their surroundings tremble.
It was the grand elder of the Gongsun family who had helped Ye Xuan back then. He was also the person in possession of the jade token.
The grand elder nodded.
Although Ye Xuan's strength was terrifying and could even crush a large group of sea race King realm experts, he was still a single person. Even if he appeared, he might not be able to change the fate of the Nanzhou Region.
Of course, his appearance would make a large difference, but the jade token was the final hope and trump card of the Nanzhou Region, so there was no way he could waste it at this point.
However, the situation was becoming more and more dire. As time passed, more and more territories in the Nanzhour Region fell.
Meanwhile, the grand elder's injuries were getting more and more serious.
Even though he was a half-step pattern condensation realm expert, he was fighting against two tenth-level unity realm experts and five-level grade unity realm experts.
Even when he asked for help, everyone was facing the same odds. They were all held back by the huge number of sea race experts.
Waves of powerful energy struck the grand elder's body. Cracks appeared on his golden armored body, and his bone-deep wounds were ravaged by violent energy.
