“Body Cultivation Void Layer, I’ve almost completely comprehended it.”
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
As long as he wished, he could now step into Refine Void in the Body Cultivation lineage.
Becoming the first Body Cultivation Ancient Saint in the Central Divine Continent in hundreds of thousands of years.
However…
Lin Yuan’s expression fell into brief contemplation.
Unlike returning to the Sixth Rank.
The lineage of Body Cultivation was new to Lin Yuan.
If he broke through to Body Cultivation Refine Void, it would be difficult to perfectly conceal his aura as he did when returning to the Sixth Rank.
Lin Yuan’s return to the Sixth Rank emphasized ‘return,’ having already traversed it once in the Main World.
Therefore, when he stepped into the Sixth Rank again in this Immortal Tao World, as easy as eating and drinking, even the Founding Artefact of the Sect, the Taihao Immortal Mirror, which monitored all aura in Divine Continent, did not detect Lin Yuan stepping into the Sixth Rank.
But if he were to break through in the Body Cultivation lineage to Refine Void, Lin Yuan wasn’t confident he could control his own aura, considering he had never walked this path before.
“I can’t break through in Cloud Mist Blessed Land.”
Lin Yuan silently thought to himself.
The Daode Immortal Sect was nearby.
This place was under the direct surveillance of the Taihao Immortal Mirror.
Any slight anomaly in aura would attract the attention of the Taihao Immortal Mirror, consequently drawing the gaze of the Immortal Sect Leader.
For hundreds of thousands of years, why hadn’t the Daode Immortal Sect, Blood Demon Sea, Nether Palace, and Demon Saint’s Nest dared to invade easily?
It was because of the Taihao Immortal Mirror.
This Immortal Founding Artefact, when activated on its own, could cover Central Divine Continent. If activated by an Ancient Saint, it could even form an Immortal Mirror incarnation and descend anywhere in this world.
Of course, the farther the distance, the weaker the Incarnation of the Immortal Mirror would be.
“Where to break through?”
In front of Lin Yuan, multiple screens of light appeared, showing a map of this world.
Lin Yuan’s gaze first fell on the area of the Eastern Sea Islands. After years of being presided over by Yang Spirit, White Jade Pavilion had already become the foremost among the eight hundred subsidiary sects and three thousand Left Paths of the East Sea.
“No.”
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and then gently shook his head.
The East Sea was indeed under the influence of White Jade Pavilion, but it was also a key focus area for the Daode Immortal Sect, Blood Demon Sea, and Ghost Palace of Netherworld.
Especially as the influence of White Jade Pavilion had grown over the years, the Daode Immortal Sect had particularly increased their scrutiny here.
Choosing to break through in the East Sea was not a good idea, as the Immortal Mirror Incarnation of the Immortal Sect Master might descend at any time, making it unnecessary to take such a risk.
Apart from the East Sea.
Lin Yuan could only choose the north, south, or west.
In fact, there was almost no difference between these three places. Although they were constantly ravaged and suppressed by the Daode Immortal Sect, the greater the suppression, the safer it was, as it was darkest under the lamp.
“Let’s choose the west.”
Lin Yuan made up his mind.
To the west was the domain of the Barbaric Demon Beasts.
The Demon Saint’s Nest was the holy land of the Barbaric Demon Beasts, guarded by a Demon Saint whose power paralleled the Ancient Saint of Refine Void Layer.
And the Barbaric Demon Saint Nest was under the purview of Jun Wuji’s father, Jun Dongjin, who was responsible for the suppression and sweeping of the area.
Over the years, Lin Yuan had roughly figured out the deployment and routine of the Immortal Sect disciples suppressing the Barbaric Demon Beasts.
With this knowledge, Lin Yuan could definitely achieve his breakthrough unnoticed and undisturbed by external forces.
Even if some breakthrough anomalies occurred during the process, they would be hard to detect for a while, and by the time they attracted the attention of other powerhouses, Lin Yuan would have already left.
…
Having determined the location for his breakthrough.
Lin Yuan walked out of the cultivation chamber.
“My lord…”
Chunhua and Qiuyue greeted him warmly.
“Hmm.”
Lin Yuan nodded.
Several days later.
Lin Yuan instructed Chunhua and Qiuyue, “I plan to go into closed-door cultivation soon. Turn away anyone looking for me, including big brother, second sister, father, and mother.”
“Yes.”
Chunhua and Qiuyue immediately responded.
This was not the first time such an event had occurred.
Ever since Jun Wuji moved into Cloud Mist Blessed Land decades ago, he had begun to cultivate frenzically, spending most of the time in closed-door cultivation.
And during this period, no one could disturb him.
After instructing Chunhua and Qiuyue.
Lin Yuan once again entered the cultivation chamber.
“Time to leave.”
Lin Yuan stood inside the chamber, leaving behind a trail of his own scent.
This scent could replace him, being sensed by the outside world’s Chunhua and Qiuyue.
At the same time.
If anyone broke into this cultivation chamber.
No matter how far Lin Yuan was, as long as he was within this realm, he would be able to sense it.
After completing all this.
Lin Yuan silently left Cloud Mist Blessed Land.
This was the second time Lin Yuan had left Cloud Mist Blessed Land since he moved in.
The first time was during the grand ceremony of the Immortal Sect Leader’s grandfather in the Hollow Void.
…
On the edge of Central Divine Continent.
In an ordinary valley.
At some point, a figure appeared.
“This place is quite good.”
Lin Yuan looked at the valley and nodded slightly.
This valley was not within the jurisdiction of Central Divine Continent.
Nor was it in the domain of the Barbaric Demon Beasts but was in a buffer zone between the two.
Here, the Taihao Immortal Mirror of the Daode Immortal Sect could not monitor on its own unless the Immortal Sect Leader actively stimulated it, specifically sensing this location.
But it was very unlikely for the Immortal Sect Leader to do so without any reason.
The reason why the Immortal Sect Leader had previously activated the Taihao Immortal Mirror and descended into the East Sea was because Lin Yuan had interfered with the Black Gauze Archipelago and disrupted the sect’s arrangements.
“This is it.”
Lin Yuan arrived at the valley and sat cross-legged in a cave.
Sigh.
An ethereal figure walked out from inside Lin Yuan.
It was the Yin Spirit.
This breakthrough was a physical one, so the Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit were free to protect Lin Yuan.
Since Lin Yuan had broken through to the Sixth Rank, the power of the Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit had also risen significantly. Even though they were slightly weaker than their original form, they still possessed the combat power of an Ancient Saint of Refine Void Layer.
With an Ancient Saint protecting his cultivation, Lin Yuan’s breakthrough, especially in such a buffer zone, wouldn’t matter; he would have ample time to handle any situation that arose.
