He threw another punch at the top of his head, and the gunshot shattered.

At this moment, Xiaobai had already rushed to Xuanluo's side.

Upon arriving in front of Xuan Luo, Xiao Bai attached the Wheel of Fate to herself.

This time, Xiaobai poured all her power into her attack on Xuanluo.

This attack made Xuan Luo feel a slight sense of danger—but only a trace.

Xuan Luo threw a punch with the same force, slamming it heavily onto the Breaking Dao Spear.

The result was exactly the same as before: Xiaobai and the Breaking Dagger were sent flying backwards once again.

At this moment, Xuan Luo slowly raised his right hand and suddenly noticed a red dot on the back of his hand.

Li Feng also came to Xuan Luo's side at the right time and said:
"Looks like this kid's skills aren't bad; he can even leave a mark on you."

Xuan Luo nodded and said to Li Feng:
"His strength is indeed impressive, but his power is too dispersed, causing much of his strength to dissipate into the world."

Li Feng nodded; he had also noticed the problem with Xiao Bai.

Seeing that Xiao Bai could hurt him, Xuan Luo grew even more fond of him.

To be able to injure oneself at the level of being half-transcendent is something that ordinary people cannot do.

Xiao Bai slowly steadied himself, now completely powerless to fight – that last attack had exhausted all his stored Dao power.

Xiao Bai was extremely weak. His opponent had blocked all of his attacks with just one punch, and he hadn't even had a chance to fight back. This made Xiao Bai realize that Xuan Luo was an extremely powerful being.

Xiao Bai put away the River of Destiny and the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos, and carefully put away the Breaking Dao Spear before coming to Xuan Luo and Li Feng's side.

"Teacher, I don't have the strength to continue playing."

Xiao Bai frankly told Xuan Luo about her situation.

Xuanlu nodded to him.

“I know. At the same time, I’ve also noticed some problems with you.”

Upon hearing that he still had shortcomings, Xiaobai quickly said:
"Please give me your guidance, teacher."

So, Xuanluo told him about all the problems that Xiaobai had.

"First of all, the foundation you have laid is very solid. Ordinary half-step transcendents simply cannot reach your level."

Hearing Xuan Luo praise his solid foundation, Xiao Bai couldn't help but feel a little happy.

In his previous cultivation, he would always calm himself down first before seeking a breakthrough, which is why his foundation was so solid.

"Your control over your own power is already quite good, but it hasn't reached the level that a half-step transcendent should have."

"You must have just recently broken through to the half-step transcendence realm, right?"

Xiao Bai nodded to Xuan Luo.

"Just as the teacher said, I have only recently broken through the half-step of transcendence."

"Teacher, what do you think I should do now?"

Faced with his own problems, Xiaobai humbly sought advice from Xuanluo.

Ying Zheng felt extremely honored to be taught by such a peerless expert. He wanted to take this opportunity to make up for all his weaknesses.

"I'll take you somewhere to cultivate later; this place isn't really suitable for you."

Xuanluo said to Xiaobai beside him.

Xiao Bai nodded.

"I will follow the teacher's instructions."

Xuan Luo waved his hand again, and the three of them returned to the house where Xiao Bai had lived before.

Xiao Bai greatly admired Xuan Luo's skill, because he himself was not capable of doing that.

"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go out for a bit."

Xuanlu said to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng nodded and replied:
"It's alright, teacher. You go ahead and do your work. I'll wait for you here."

Xuan Luo then left with Li Feng.

Li Feng led Xuan Luo to his room, and with a wave of his hand, he set up a barrier that enveloped the entire room.

"What do you think of Ying Zheng? Why did you take him on as your disciple right away? This isn't like you usually do."

Li Feng said to Xuan Luo.

Li Feng believed he knew Xuan Luo very well. In the past, Xuan Luo had extremely strict requirements when considering taking on disciples.

But after meeting Ying Zheng today, Xuan Luo asked him to test him, and then directly accepted him as a disciple.

Xuan Luo revealed a faint smile and said:
"I think he's a good person, so I wanted to take him as my apprentice. What, didn't you originally want me to take him as your apprentice? Why are you unhappy now?"

Li Feng quickly shook his head.

"I didn't mean that. I just think you've taken on a disciple way too quickly this time. It's really different from how you used to be."

Xuan Luo nodded to Li Feng and said:

"I think this Ying Zheng is indeed quite good. He has a very solid foundation. He just lacks someone to guide him on his cultivation path."

"Did you set up this barrier to prevent others from overhearing our conversation?"

Li Feng said.

"With so many people around, it's always good to take precautions. Now that you've taken him on as your apprentice, what are your plans for the next step?"

Xuan Luo thought for a moment and said to Li Feng:

“I plan to bring him to my place first to improve his control over his own power. Such a promising talent cannot be wasted.”

Li Feng nodded, fully agreeing with Xuan Luo's arrangement.

"Then take him there. When the time is right, I will tell him what he wants to know."

Xuan Luo sighed and said:
"What he wants to do is no simple matter; most people simply don't have the ability to do it."

Separating one world from another is extremely difficult, and at least Ying Zheng's current abilities are insufficient to do so.

"Actually, you can help him right now, can't you? With your abilities, it's just a piece of cake."

Li Feng said to Xuan Luo.

"Some things he has to do himself. He wants to protect the people in his world, not the people I want to protect."

"Although I am now his master, I have no obligation to do that for him. The life and death of people in that world are none of my business."

When they cultivate to their level, the life and death of ordinary people are no different from that of ants on the ground in their eyes.

They only care about themselves—this doesn't mean they've lost their humanity, but rather that only when they are strong enough can they protect those they want to protect.

Xuan Luo's words did not surprise Li Feng.

"Then you should help him improve his strength. My grandson has a good relationship with him, so help him as much as you can."

Li Feng said to Xuan Luo.

Xuan Luo gently waved his right hand, and the barrier surrounding the house instantly dissipated.

"Then I'll take him to cultivate first, since time waits for no one."

Li Feng nodded to Xuan Luo. Xuan Luo then left and went to Ying Zheng's house.

After Xuan Luo left, Ying Zheng took out the cultivation manual that Bai Hu had given him earlier and studied it carefully.

At this moment, Xuan Luo had already entered Ying Zheng's room and stopped when he saw him studying martial arts techniques.

Xuan Luo noticed that Ying Zheng's brows furrowed at times and relaxed at others, as if he had resolved a question in his heart. Ying Zheng slowly withdrew his cultivation technique and let out a long sigh.

"It seems I need to intensify my training; I can't fully grasp it in a short time."

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, he suddenly realized that there was another person in the room.

He looked closely and realized it was his teacher, Xuan Luo. He immediately stood up, walked to Xuan Luo's side, and said:
"Teacher, what brings you here so suddenly? Have you finished everything?"

Xuan Luo nodded to Ying Zheng and said:

"Well, so I'm going to take you to a training ground now. Is there anything else you need to prepare?"

Ying Zheng shook his head.

Since arriving in the primordial world, Ying Zheng had been all alone. There was nothing to pack, and nothing here that he would miss.

“Teacher, I can leave now. I don’t need to prepare anything, because I have nothing to begin with.”

Ying Zheng scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and said to Xuan Luo.

At this moment, Ying Zheng appeared somewhat shabby. Xuan Luo noticed his embarrassment and said to him:
"After you've trained with me for a while, I'll give you something unexpected. Alright, let's set off now."

Upon hearing that Xuan Luo would be giving him something in the future, Ying Zheng's face immediately lit up with a smile, and he said:

"Then this disciple thanks Master in advance. Let us go now!"

Xuan Luo nodded, then led Ying Zheng through space to his residence.

Ying Zheng was quite surprised by the methods Xuan Luo displayed. In fact, Ying Zheng could have done the same in his original world.

However, after arriving in the primordial world, this ability seemed to disappear, and he could no longer use it as freely as Xuan Luo.

Xuan Luo also noticed that Ying Zheng was staring at him, so he asked:
"Can't you travel through time right now?"

Ying Zheng nodded first, then shook his head.

Xuan Luo frowned slightly and said to him:

"So, do you know how or not you do?"

Ying Zheng explained:
“In my original world, I could travel through time and space. But after coming here, I found that the spatial barriers here are very difficult to break through.”

After listening to Ying Zheng's words, Xuan Luo understood his meaning.

"Because this world is more stable and powerful than yours, it requires greater strength to travel through time and space here."

Xuanlu said to Ying Zheng.

"Teacher, do you think I still have a way to do this?"

Xuan Luo nodded and replied:
"Of course you can. But that will have to wait until your strength improves. At your current level, you can't do it."

Upon hearing that he would be able to travel through time in the future, Ying Zheng was overjoyed and said to Xuan Luo:

"Teacher, when can you teach me how to improve my strength?"

Previously, Xuan Luo only said that he wanted Ying Zheng to learn how to control his Dao power, but he did not say that he would teach him how to improve his cultivation.

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Xuan Luo immediately frowned and spoke.

“Cultivation is something that can’t be rushed. You have to understand that you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Right now, what you need to do most is learn to control your own Dao power.”

Ying Zheng adopted a humble and receptive expression as he spoke to Xuan Luo.

"Teacher, I understand. I will do whatever you tell me to do from now on. I will follow your instructions completely."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Luo smiled faintly.

Not long after, Xuan Luo led Ying Zheng to the place where Li Feng had come looking for Xuan Luo earlier.

As soon as Ying Zheng stepped into this place, he found that the surroundings were full of flowers and plants, and upon closer inspection, they were all varieties that were quite rare in the outside world.

Not far in front of Ying Zheng, a bright red flower came into his view.

Ying Zheng immediately walked up to the flower and reached out to pick it.

But just as his hand was about to touch the flower, it slipped quietly through his fingers.

At that moment, the flower stopped beside Ying Zheng again, staying there quietly.

Ying Zheng was surprised to find that the flower in front of him could move, and then he moved closer to the flower.

This time, Ying Zheng did not rush to act. Instead, he first used his Dao power to slowly wrap the flower before reaching out to pick it.

However, just when Ying Zheng thought he was about to succeed, the flower suddenly disappeared and then reappeared not far away.

The two consecutive failures only fueled Ying Zheng's interest in the flower.

"I refuse to believe it today, I'm determined to catch you."

Ying Zheng spoke to the flowers in front of him.

Xuanluo also noticed Ying Zheng's actions, but did not stop him. Instead, she quietly watched everything he did.

Ying Zheng walked to the flower again and used layers of Dao power to surround it.

He refused to believe that it could escape under such tight encirclement.

After making all the preparations, Ying Zheng slowly reached out towards the flower.

This time, Ying Zheng's movements were exceptionally light, but just as his fingertips were about to touch the petals, the flower disappeared once again.

Ying Zheng was getting annoyed when he realized he had failed to get the flower several times.

"Never mind, I'll come find you to play again in a while! I'll definitely have you in my grasp then."

After saying this, Ying Zheng went to Xuan Luo's side.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, teacher, but I failed to pick that flower."

Xuan Luo waved his hand at Ying Zheng and said.

"It's normal that you can't catch it right now. Do you want to know what kind of flower it is?"

Ying Zheng nodded. He was now particularly curious about the origin of that flower, which had managed to escape from his grasp time and time again.

"The name of that flower is the Strange Flower."

Xuanlu said to Ying Zheng.

Upon hearing that the flower was called the Strange Flower, Ying Zheng's expression immediately became quite strange.

Why is this flower called the Strange Flower?

Ying Zheng told Xuan Luo about his doubts.

"It is called the Strange Flower because it has a certain spirituality and can evade being captured by others."

Xuanlu explained.

After Xuan Luo finished speaking, he gently waved his right hand, and the strange flower flew directly into his hand.

Ying Zheng was quite surprised to see this, realizing that he had underestimated his teacher's strength.

"Teacher, you are so amazing! You were able to get this flower so easily."

Xuan Luo smiled faintly after hearing this and said...

"Once you improve your strength, you'll be able to do that too. Alright, now it's time to take you to your training ground."

Upon hearing that they had to go now, Ying Zheng immediately perked up.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was eager to improve his strength.

Although he didn't know exactly what the test Li Feng had given him was, he figured that if he became stronger, his chances of success would definitely increase. (End of Chapter)
