Zhu Diezhen touched the surrounding ruins with her hand.
Everything was so familiar.
It was exactly like the Soul Refining Hall in her dream.
This couldn't be fake.
Since the Soul Refining Hall was still there, then the man in her dream must also be real.
He was a Cultivator from Suoyue Tower.
His name was Ye Yu!
Zhu Diezhen's eyes became incredibly sharp.
She didn't believe that everything before was just a dream.
To her, those were more like memories of a past life.
Although she didn't understand why they suddenly appeared, Zhu Diezhen believed that all of this was destined.
Her future husband could only be Ye Yu.
Moreover, the Heart-Linking Pill wasn't just in her dream.
In reality, she had it too!
......
The next day, within the Qingyun Sect Holy Land.
“Achoo!”
Ye Yu sneezed.
He didn't know why, but ever since he woke up this morning, he had been sneezing non-stop.
It was as if someone was cursing him.
It was truly uncomfortable.
Ye Yu pinched his nose.
With a casual wave of his hand, several small Spirit Beast phantoms of various colors appeared out of thin air.
They gathered around Ye Yu, bowing in submission.
Last night, after obtaining Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation and the Ten Thousand Souls Technique, Ye Yu didn't rush to sleep.
Instead, he went to the back mountain alone to try out his new abilities.
He had to admit, the Ten Thousand Souls Technique was indeed worthy of being the top Cultivation Technique of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.
Even though Ye Yu's Realm was low now and most of the techniques within the Ten Thousand Souls Technique couldn't be used, the most basic Soul Refining and soul summoning could still be achieved.
With just a thought, he could command the phantoms of these Spirit Beasts for his use.
If he had ample time and enough phantoms around, Ye Yu could gather about five hundred phantoms around him within a day.
At that time, even if a Golden Core big shot came, they shouldn't be his opponent.
It was a perfect strategy of using numbers to bully the few and killing enemies across Realms.
But the biggest flaw was that Ye Yu was currently a Disciple of the Qingyun Holy Land.
How could a Righteous Path Cultivator display a demonic Sect Cultivation Technique?
Ye Yu had considered it last night, whether to defect from the Qingyun Sect overnight and go to the Ten Thousand Souls Hall to become a demonic Cultivator Disciple.
But this idea was quickly rejected.
The Ten Thousand Souls Hall and Suoyue Tower were Sects that only existed in dreams.
In reality, they might not exist.
Even if they truly existed, the Ten Thousand Souls Technique was a Cultivation Technique that only the Hall Master of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall could cultivate.
Once he exposed it, how would he explain himself?
Therefore, Ye Yu decided to continue developing discreetly in the Qingyun Sect.
After continuously becoming stronger through the dream System, he would then emerge suddenly and dominate everything.
Before that, he should still take good care of these five acres of spiritual fields.
Maintain the status quo!
Ye Yu clenched his fist.
The surrounding phantoms instantly vanished.
He then sat by the spiritual field, waiting for nightfall.
It was midday.
Two people appeared from the north, walking towards him.
The one in the lead was wearing a cyan lotus cloud brocade robe with a jade plaque hanging from his waist.
This attire was exclusive to Inner Sect Disciples of the Qingyun Sect.
Seeing this, Ye Yu was somewhat surprised.
This place was the territory of the Outer Sect, and under normal circumstances, Inner Sect Disciples would not come here.
What exactly were these people here for?
While Ye Yu was pondering, the two people had already arrived in front of him.
Only when they were closer did Ye Yu realize that he knew both of them.
They were the brothers Hou Zhen and Hou Wang.
They had entered the Qingyun Sect at the same time as Ye Yu.
They were also Outer Sect Disciples.
However, they were assigned to the dirtiest and hardest chores, while Ye Yu had a relatively easier job of planting spiritual fields here.
They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so he didn't recognize them immediately.
Hou Wang chuckled and said, “Fellow Daoist Ye, long time no see.”
“It has been a long time. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Hou to have become an Inner Sect Disciple.
That's truly commendable.”
Ye Yu greeted him with a smile.
The treatment of Inner Sect Disciples and Outer Sect Disciples in the Qingyun Sect was like heaven and earth.
Outer Sect Disciples were like servants doing chores, while Inner Sect Disciples were the true Cultivators.
They no longer had to do any miscellaneous tasks, only needing to focus on cultivation.
The Late Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm was a huge watershed, completely separating those with talent from those without.
Upon hearing Ye Yu's polite words, the smile on Hou Wang's Face grew even wider.
He immediately continued, “Fellow Daoist Ye, I won't beat around the bush with you.
You and my younger brother Hou Zhen should switch places.
You go to the chore room, and let him come and manage the spiritual fields.
Give me some Face, and I'll give you Face too.
If anyone bullies you in the future, I will stand up for you, how about it?”
Hou Zhen sneered, “Fellow Daoist Ye, you're a smart person, you wouldn't disagree, would you?”
Listening to the two brothers' back-and-forth, Ye Yu instantly understood what this meant.
Hou Wang wanted to use his status as an Inner Sect Disciple to force him to give the relatively easy spiritual field work to Hou Zhen.
How ridiculous.
Ye Yu would never do such dirty and tiring chores.
So he immediately shook his head and said, “I'm sorry, I don't like giving others Face.”
Hou Wang's Face instantly turned ashen.
Ever since he fortunately became an Inner Sect Disciple, everyone in the Outer Sect had been respectful towards him.
Only this Ye Yu dared to speak to him like that?
Why?
“Brat, you're courting death!”
Hou Zhen had an impatient temper and couldn't hold back.
He immediately stepped forward and tried to punch Ye Yu, but the latter easily dodged it.
He also casually slapped Hou Zhen to the ground.
“Attacking fellow Disciples is a big taboo.
Fellow Daoist Hou, don't be impulsive.”
Ye Yu didn't bother with Hou Zhen on the ground, but looked at Hou Wang opposite him, warning him word by word.
If it were before, Ye Yu might have considered enduring it.
But now that the System had arrived, how could he continue to be so timid?
“Good, good, you certainly know the Sect rules very well.
But what's the use?
I'll kill you right now and throw your body down the mountain, and who will know?”
Hou Wang suddenly raised his sword finger, reciting a sword incantation.
A faint sword shadow appeared, its edge pointing directly at Ye Yu's glabella.
Ye Yu chuckled.
So, was the life of an Outer Sect Disciple so worthless?
Then neither of you will live either!
Ye Yu suddenly raised his hand.
Two Spirit Beast phantoms appeared, biting Hou Wang's hands, one on the left and one on the right, completely destroying his prepared sword incantation.
“Ah, what exactly is this thing.
Get away, get away!”
Hou Wang was terrified, trying desperately to shake off the phantoms on his hands, but he couldn't.
Ye Yu opened his palm and pressed it against Hou Wang's chest in the Void Realm.
“Soul Refining!”
In an instant, Hou Wang stopped struggling.
A light blue phantom was pulled out from his body.
This was the first humanoid phantom Ye Yu had mastered.
There would soon be a second.
Ye Yu turned to look at Hou Zhen on the ground.
At this moment, Hou Zhen had been completely stunned by the scene before him.
Let alone running, he couldn't even stand up.
He could only watch as Ye Yu approached.
Soon, after Ye Yu had collected the phantoms of both brothers, he prepared to begin the clean-up work.
But just then, a cold voice came from behind him.
“What Cultivation Technique did you just use?”
