Yun Xiao's Changes
🕑 Added 2025-02-27 17:10:11 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 310 ---
After waiting a while, Yun Xiao and Tianxia Diqi finally completed the Trial Grounds. However, Yun Che and others could somehow feel that the two of them had undergone a qualitative breakthrough.
Tianxia Diqi's body emitted a faint holy light full of life, which caused the decorating plants in the room to grow rapidly. Of course, this was just a passive aura of her newly trained [Elven's Sacred Body]. The elf girl couldn't control nature straight like Yu Long's grandmother.
Yet, Tianxia Diqi's physical strength is already three times stronger than others in the same realm, the 1st Level of Tyrant Profound Realm. She could punch and kick nearly anyone in her path.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiao also appeared different from everyone. Obviously, we are not talking about appearance here, but temperament.
Before entering the Trial Grounds, Yun Xiao's temperament is that of a courageous youth with strong determination.
But now? Yun Xiao seemed to have evolved into a man. Those deep, black eyes looked like obsidian that had been refined for years, filled with profound calmness.
Of course, this doesn't mean Yun Xiao lost his determination. After all, behind those eyes is the same determination that fueled his new confidence.
"Not bad." Yu Long commented with a faint smile. "I assume you have learned the 1st stage of [Wind and Cloud Mantra]."
"No, you have learned the second stage..." His eyes scanned the verdant cloud patterns on the back of Yun Xiao's right hand. The cloud seemed alive, dimly shining due to the room's lighting.
Although the [Wind and Cloud Mantra] was an inferior version of [Art of Wind], it still holds a lot of 'strong' profound aspects such as [Aspect of Manifestation], [Aspect of Wind], [Aspect of Cloud], and [Aspect of Density].
For Yun Xiao to master the first two stages of [Wind and Cloud Mantra] meant he had grasped two profound aspects, probably [Aspect of Wind] and [Aspect of Manifestation].
Yun Che and others were shocked.
Everyone in this room has gotten a tailor-made Profound Art 'literally' made by Yu Long in one way or another, and each technique is better than their ancestral inheritance.
Even Yujin had to admit her incomplete [Record of the Burning World] is a bit weaker than Yu Long's modified version for Huan Caiyi. It's not about whether the technique has better firepower but the upper limit.
That's right. Yu Long's Profound Arts has better upper limits than any other technique.
It's because Yu Long's Profound Arts revolved around the fundamental manipulation of worldly aspects, concepts, and laws.
However, here Yu Long said that Yun Xiao had learned his Profound Art to a certain degree.
Such talent is worth supporting!
'Wind and Cloud Mantra is definitely wind-attributed Profound Art.' Huan Caiyi thought to herself. 'Does this mean Yun Xiao's talents in this field are so great?'
'This is a bit too much, isn't it?'
Chu Yueli stared at Yun Xiao weirdly. Honestly, she felt everyone related to Xiao Lingxi was weird because she was once the reincarnation of the mighty Ancestral God.
Although Xiao Lingxi lost such privileges, the damage was 'already' done to the world, and everyone affected would never return to normal again, including Xiao Lingxi's family members.
In one way or another, Xiao Lingxi is both a blessing and a disaster for everyone around her.
So, Yun Xiao (Xiao An)'s suffering is also related to Xiao Lingxi because she wanted to accommodate the 'reincarnated Yun Che' from another timeline to this timeline.
At first, Chu Yueli was confused by Yu Long's explanation of Xiao Lingxi's situation. Simply put, he said that 'reincarnated Yun Che and Xiao Lingxi' was 'literally' the trigger of many disasters.
Thankfully, Yu Long prevented that from happening.
Anyway, Chu Yueli looked at Yun Xiao differently now. It seemed this little fellow's talent was equal to Yun Che.
Xiao Lingxi clapped her hand excitedly for her 'little' nephew. "Thanks, god."
"..." Chu Yueli.
How ironic. Are you thanking yourself, my silly disciple?
Yun Xiao smiled and bowed, "Thanks to you, Master Yu. I can't step into this stage without your help. I, Yun Xiao, no, Xiao An, will remember this favor my whole life!"
"I'm only teaching you how to fish. The rest is up to you." Yu Long waved his hand casually and told Yun Xiao to rise.
"You're right." Yun Xiao nodded in understanding. "I will do my best to repay this favor."
Yun Che gazed at Yun Xiao and couldn't help but suck a cold breath as he felt this sworn brother of his is not the same anymore. He couldn't feel his depth anymore.
In fact, Yun Che only felt this sensation from people like Yu Long and Yun Canghai.
When Yun Che heard that Yun Xiao had reached the second stage of his Profound Art, he became even more shocked because he knew how hard it was to make progress on the Profound Art Yu Long made.
Yun Che reached the 1st stage of the [Way of Thunderer] with the help of Yu Long's training. And to this moment, Yun Che hasn't made progress to the second stage yet.
Just imagine how shaken Yun Che's heart is right now.
Still, Yun Che's heart quickly calmed like a pond without a ripple.
Everyone has their own opportunity.
"Brother Xiao, why don't we exchange some moves?" Yun Che suddenly asked.
Yun Xiao met with Yun Che's sharp gaze and responded with the same intensity, "Okay, let's do it."
When two men talk, there is no need for too many words.
At this very moment, lightning flickers, and the wind moves.
Yu Long shook his head gently and commented, "If you two want to fight, go outside. A restaurant is an eating place, not for throwing hands."
"Then, we will leave first, Boss." Yun Che chuckled, giving Yu Long a salute, and then disappeared from the room with lightning speed.
Yun Xiao gave Yu Long a nod and stepped out, leaving a gentle breeze in the room.
"Are they going to be fine?" Xiao Lingxi couldn't help but ask.
Yu Long glanced at Xiao Lingxi and replied, "They will be fine. At most, they would suffer some bruises here and there."
"I see..." Xiao Lingxi felt reassured.
What Xiao Lingxi didn't know was that Yu Long was lying.
Although Yun Xiao and Yun Che didn't say much, there is actually quite a tension between them. After all, one just learned that he was adopted, and the other realized he was 'pathetically' robbed of such a good life.
Of course, neither Yun Xiao nor Yun Che blamed others. They knew they could only blame the world for making such a tragedy happen.
But left with no one else to vent, they suppressed their feelings.
Yun Che and Yun Xiao realized this and knew this state was not 'good' for their cultivation. So, they agreed to a fight.
Yu Long played down this matter to keep Xiao Lingxi calm, but he knew Yun Che and Yun Xiao might lose a limb or two in this fight.
Huan Caiyi stared into the distance and thought, 'What an intense fighting spirit.'
'They are going to fight with everything they have.' Yujin's eyes flashed with amusement.
'I wonder who is going to win.' Chu Yueli's lips curved slightly.
She peeked at Yu Long, 'Master must know the result.'
