The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 264 Advancement to the Ninth Level of Grandmaster! Comprehending Divine Powers, Minor Success of the Illusionary Yin-Yang Finger! Why do you use the surname Lu?
In an instant, the several disciples of the small sect who were at the Condensation Realm were all stunned and speechless.

In their world, it's hard to imagine someone trying to break through to a certain level...

This is what triggers such divine might!
Is this really something that can be done by human power?!
Looking at his disciples, who were speechless with shock, the hunchbacked old sect leader still had one sentence left unsaid.

Not everyone who reaches a high level can trigger such celestial changes.

Instead, it requires... someone with immense good fortune, such as someone with a sword heart or sword bones, or someone with a divine body!
Only when breaking through the barrier can one stir up the energy of heaven and earth, causing a sudden change in celestial phenomena!

A person with a divine body... The hunchbacked old sect leader was somewhat dazed.

Such prodigies were not numerous even in Yunzhou, where he was from, which was known as the number one prefecture in the Great Jing Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, one of the Northern Territories who was ordered to come here was the one who appeared.

However, these things are far too distant for these disciples. They might never come into contact with them, let alone in a lifetime, or even in several lifetimes. It would be pointless to talk about them.

"Stop looking. Go and cultivate diligently. Don't go out and wander around unnecessarily."

The hunchbacked old sect leader waved his hand: "If you really get struck by lightning, I can't save you."

At this moment, inside the cave, Lu Ye remained oblivious to the heavenly lightning descending upon the outside world.

With each refining of energy, Lu Ye has launched two assaults on the ninth level of the Grandmaster realm!

However, over the years, the Northern Territory has been home to nothing more than the two unorthodox and heretical forces, the Three Yin and Five Poisons.

Only the unparalleled Supreme Elder of the Myriad Laws Sect truly possesses such a level of attainment.

The other two sect leaders, including their supreme elders, are far from reaching this level.

This shows how difficult it is to advance to the next level of the Grandmaster realm.

Lu Ye's two attempts both ended in failure.

Fortunately, Lu Ye had a backup plan. He grabbed several source crystals with both hands in an instant, and as he refined them, a considerable amount of source energy was replenished into his body.

Immediately afterwards, a mid-grade Grandmaster Pill, accumulated from ordinary extractions, fell into his mouth.

With both energies exerting their power simultaneously, plus the remaining medicinal effects of the Twin Divine Fruit, Lu Ye felt... his strength was explosive this time!
boom!
Undeterred, it crashed headlong into that barrier once more...

This time, even the most solid nine-layered barrier showed signs of turbulence in an instant, with dense cracks appearing on the transparent barrier.

As Lu Ye once again gathered his Origin Qi and surged forth...

Boom boom boom!
In an instant, we entered a completely new world!

Grandmaster... Ninth level!!

The ninth level of the Grandmaster realm, just one step away from becoming a Grandmaster in the Mortal Realm!

Just as Lu Ye officially entered the ninth level of the Grandmaster realm, lightning bolts began to strike from the sky...

It turned into streaks of purple lightning!
Fortunately, the purple lightning only appeared for less than two seconds before dissipating.

The vast sky has regained its clarity, with blue skies and white clouds.

Inside the cave, Lu Ye did not finish his meditation; his eyes remained closed.

The biggest difference between the Double Divine Fruit and the even higher-grade Triple Divine Fruit and other genuine spiritual fruits and medicines is...

There's a glimmer of insight!
Of course, the dual-divine fruit is of a lower grade, and the opportunity for enlightenment is weaker than that of the triple-divine fruit.

It is also more difficult to understand.

But Lu Ye did not give up easily and continued to try to capture that glimmer of inspiration.

Time passes bit by bit...

Just as that faint glimmer of insight was about to completely dissipate, Lu Ye finally gained some understanding!
In an instant, a yin-yang symbol naturally appeared in Lu Ye's mind.

A finger strike, seemingly descending from the heavens, carrying an air of mystery and unfathomable power, appeared to possess the ability to crush all things with a single touch, landing on the Yin-Yang diagram...

Lu Ye suddenly realized something and quickly absorbed the rare and valuable insights from the Illusionary Yin-Yang Finger Technique.

Originally, his Illusionary Yin-Yang Finger had reached a level of proficiency after much practice.

At this moment, with the blessing and comprehension of this insight, I successfully advanced to the minor stage of mastery!
This realization saved me a lot of time from arduous practice.

The extra time can be used to cultivate other spiritual techniques or array formations.

Suddenly opening his eyes, Lu Ye brought two fingers together and pointed out with one finger!
call out!
Before him, a yin-yang diagram, imbued with subtle mystery, swiftly appeared. His finger techniques, like a true shooting star, instantly pierced through the several-meter-thick stone wall of the cave!
Lu Ye rushed out of the cave and discovered that it was not just that.

The light from the Illusionary Yin-Yang Finger once again pierced through the trunk of a large tree outside the cave, a tree that would take two people to encircle!
"That finger technique is amazing! Who can resist it?"

Lu Ye touched his fingers, quite satisfied.

Having such a powerful weapon in hand would undoubtedly increase one's sense of security considerably.

At the same time, the sudden purple lightning startled people all over the surrounding tens of thousands of miles in the northern border.

If the initial ordinary white lightning was just something the heavens were playing around with...

The purple lightning in the final few seconds... was definitely not normal!
"Why is there purple lightning? This kind of lightning usually only appears when breaking through a major realm!"

“Normally, when a Grandmaster breaks through, purple lightning doesn’t appear. I’m afraid… only a Grandmaster would be able to do so.”

"Are you delirious? Where did a Grandmaster come from in our Northern Territory? No... could it be that guy from the Myriad Laws Sect who broke through?!"

Speculation immediately arose throughout the northern border.

Some speculate that it might be the Supreme Master of the Wanfa Sect, or perhaps someone from the Five Poisons or Three Yin Sects, who has successfully cultivated into a Grandmaster by using a rapidly progressing evil technique!

After all, these individuals had already been rumored to be at the peak of the ninth level of the Grandmaster realm.

If it is a breakthrough, it would be reasonable.

Inside the Crimson Cloud Sect.

Fairy Chiyun rushed to the main hall of the main peak, followed by a group of elders.

This time, the atmosphere wasn't as relaxed as it was during the last discussion about the apprenticeship ceremony.

The people who arrived all had serious expressions.

For any faction, the emergence of a powerful figure in any other faction is not something everyone would like to see.

After everyone exchanged greetings, the Grand Elder of the Crimson Cloud Sect said in a deep voice, "Just now, the celestial phenomena in the Northern Territory changed, and at the last moment, purple lightning appeared! Is there something fishy about this?"

The Second Elder, being outspoken, said directly, "In my opinion, it seems like someone is undergoing a closed-door breakthrough! It might very well be one of those Grandmasters at the ninth level."

Fairy Chiyun did not speak immediately, but was thinking.

A thousand years ago, there were also Grandmasters in the North, so they weren't completely ignorant about Grandmasters.

The issue is……

There is no record in any ancient texts of such a scene of purple lightning filling the sky when breaking through to the Grandmaster realm.

However, to be honest, it's impossible for a Grandmaster to cause such a celestial phenomenon; thinking about it, a Great Grandmaster really has a better chance.

After a moment's thought, Fairy Chiyun said, "Do your best to arrange for people to investigate. In addition, when sect disciples travel to the Northern Territory, they should keep a low profile and avoid causing trouble."

"Anyone who violates this rule will be severely punished!"

"Yes, we will obey the sect leader's orders." The elders nodded in unison.

Now that a true Grandmaster has seemingly appeared in the Northern Territory, it is indeed wise not to cause trouble while traveling abroad, lest one bring disaster upon the sect.

Several elders left one after another, and soon, only Fairy Chiyun remained in the main hall.

After a pause, Fairy Chiyun took out her communication jade and quickly sent out a message.

[A Grandmaster has seemingly appeared in the Northern Territory! Perhaps... the leader of the Five Poisons Sect has successfully advanced! You must not reveal your identity.]

Seemingly remembering something, Chi Yun sent a second message.

[By the way, I'm a little curious, why did you choose the surname Lu as your fake identity?]

　Thank you so much to "柒一家人" for the 100-point reward! Thank you to "书友20250629289" for the 100000-point reward! This humble author feels unworthy of such generosity…

　　I want to apologize to some of you. I really didn't mean to upset you about Chi Yun. I'm so sorry!

　　In terms of plot, the outline was set long ago. The author wanted to write about the changes in the character of Fairy Chiyun. After all, she was a native and only wanted to revitalize the sect. In addition, the protagonist was hiding his strength at the time. The sect leader thought he was good-looking and could be sent over as a marriage partner. Staying in the sect at the first level of the Qi Condensation Realm would not lead to any development, as the resources for a month were so limited.

　　Of course, this isn't good news for the protagonist with his little cheat code, so up until now, the protagonist hasn't taken the initiative to talk to Chi Yun. The author wants to write about this character's change; after a series of events, the protagonist finally discovers his identity—the very same handyman disciple he personally sent away. This change in mindset and subsequent personality development will enrich the plot.
　　The same goes for Jiang Qingge's storyline. The author tried hard to depict the changes before and after the events and to make the characters more realistic, but unfortunately, it wasn't written very well. I apologize to the authors.
