Chapter 254 A Warning (Two Chapters Combined, Please Subscribe and Vote)
Chen Zilu's residence, Xingyuan No. 10, is right next to Xingyuan No. 11.

Of course, Hakuryu University is very large; even two adjacent buildings are several miles apart.

"call out!"

A streak of light flashed across the sky and quickly landed in the Star Garden No. 10 area.

"Buzz!" Jiang Ye's mind stirred, and his martial arts will perception radiated outwards.

The next moment, his expression hardened, and he lunged forward.

In a villa at No. 10 Xingyuan.

Jiang Ye strode in and saw a girl in a white dress leaning against the sofa, her face pale, with traces of pain remaining on her delicate and flawless cheeks.

Qiu Zang stood beside her.

"Teacher," Jiang Ye asked Qiu Zang, "What happened to Senior Sister?"

"She's attempting to break through to the fifth level," Qiu Zang said in a deep voice. "She's unconscious."

"Unconscious?" Jiang Ye's expression hardened.

Impacting the fifth breakthrough? Fainting?
"Did Senior Sister fail to break through?" Jiang Ye asked hurriedly.

Breaking free from the shackles of life is no child's play.

If the breakthrough fails, there is a risk of backlash, which could even affect the foundation of one's martial arts.

"She's lucky."

"I just checked, it seems to have succeeded." Qiu Zang shook his head, a hint of relief on his face.

"Then why did you faint?" Jiang Ye asked, puzzled.

He looked at the girl on the sofa. Chen Zilu's eyes were closed, she was barefoot, and her slender, white feet were on the ground, so white they seemed to be glowing.

Judging from her appearance, she must have finished her cultivation before sitting down on the sofa.

"Trying to break through to the fifth level will cause great pain." Qiu Zang didn't say much more.

But Jiang Ye was even more puzzled.

pain?

Chen Zilu usually experiences unimaginable pain during her cultivation, so pain should be the least of her fears. How could she have fainted?
"It must be because her innate talent was damaged." Bai Gui's voice echoed in his mind: "Her innate talent avatar was destroyed, and her soul was damaged."

"This situation will worsen the pain caused by the mind-devouring disorder."

"After all, the Soul Devouring Syndrome is specifically aimed at the soul."

"Therefore, she will experience intense pain when she attempts to break through to the fifth level," Bai Gui said.

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

How intense must the pain be for Chen Zilu to faint?

The martial will of a Four-Break Martial Artist is unimaginably firm, and even the excruciating pain of being slowly sliced ​​apart cannot shake it in the slightest.

The pain that caused her to faint must have been far beyond imagination.

"but."

“She has the Extreme Sea Essence, which should theoretically alleviate most of the pain,” Bai Gui said with a hint of doubt.

“Yeah, that’s right.” Jiang Ye also realized.

Didn't he give Chen Zilu eight bottles of Ji Hai Original Essence?
Surely she shouldn't have fainted?

at this time.

"Shu~"

The girl's delicate eyelashes trembled slightly before she slowly opened them.

"You guys?" A hint of confusion flashed in Chen Zilu's eyes.

"Jiang Ye, you talk to her," Qiu Zang transmitted his voice.

"Okay." Jiang Ye nodded.

Qiu Zang vanished from his spot in a flash. He was relieved to see that Chen Zilu was alright.

After Qiu Zang left.

"Senior sister," Jiang Ye looked at the girl on the sofa, "have you used up all the bottles of Extreme Sea Essence I gave you?"

he guessed.

Two months have passed, and Chen Zilu may have already used up all of those Extreme Sea Essence.

That's why there was no Extreme Sea Essence available for this fifth breakthrough attempt.

But just as Jiang Ye was thinking this...

"Extreme Ocean Essence?"

"I haven't used it yet." Chen Zilu shook her head and waved her hand.

Crash! Bang!
Eight metal bottles landed on the table.

Jiang Ye was stunned.

No?

Not a single bottle worked?

What's the situation?
"Senior Sister," Jiang Ye frowned, "Why didn't you take the Extreme Sea Essence for something as important as breaking through to the fifth level?"

"I am confident that I can break through."

Chen Zilu said, "It's useless."

"Then why did you faint?" Jiang Ye said in a deep voice, "I almost thought you had failed your breakthrough. Teacher Qiu said you were lucky."

The consequences of a failed breakthrough vary from person to person.

For others, at most their martial arts foundation will be affected.

But Chen Zilu? Her soul was already damaged, and if she failed to break through, it could even endanger her life.

"Isn't this okay?"

"I'm confident in my abilities, so there's no need to waste the Extreme Sea Essence," Chen Zilu said, shaking her head.

Her face was pale, and she showed no signs of having successfully broken through; she was very weak.

"Nonsense!" Jiang Ye couldn't help but glare and say, "How can striving for the fifth breakthrough be considered a waste? What were you thinking?"

"?"

"Who are you calling ridiculous?" Chen Zilu glared at her. "You have no manners!"

"What is this if not nonsense?" Jiang Ye said with a gloomy face, "I gave you eight bottles of Extreme Sea Essence, and you didn't use a single one."

"Are you angry?" Chen Zilu looked at him.

"I just don't understand," Jiang Ye said in a deep voice, "why don't you use the things I gave you."

Chen Zilu paused for a moment.

She looked at the bottles of Extreme Sea Essence on the table, then glanced at Jiang Ye, lowered her head, and let her long, black hair fall down in front of her fair abdomen.

moment.

"I want to keep it for you to use later," the girl whispered.

"."

Jiang Ye was stunned.

He didn't expect the other party to answer like that.

Chen Zilu's cultivation was already very painful, and the pain she would have to endure to break through the fifth breakthrough was unimaginable.

She would rather endure this pain than waste a bottle of Extreme Ocean Essence just to save it for him?

Jiang Ye stood there, speechless for a moment.

half an hour.

"Senior sister," Jiang Ye looked at the girl helplessly, "why are you keeping the things I gave you?"

“You have innate talent.” Chen Zilu looked up at him. “The fourth breakthrough will be very difficult. The Extreme Sea Essence will help you more than I have.”

Looking at the serious expression on the girl's pretty face.

Jiang Ye sighed helplessly, feeling all the frustration in his heart suddenly dissipate.

"What do you think this is?"

Jiang Ye flipped his hand, and a semi-transparent metal bottle appeared, inside which starlight liquid was flowing.

Chen Zilu was taken aback when she saw the metal bottle in his hand.

"Extreme Ocean Essence?"

"How come you still have some?" Chen Zilu couldn't help but ask.

“I get two portions every month,” Jiang Ye said. “So you don’t need to worry about not having enough Extreme Sea Essence.”

"Every month? Two portions?" Chen Zilu's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief.

“Yes.” Jiang Ye nodded.

He hadn't told Chen Zilu about this beforehand, intending to surprise her.

To his surprise, Chen Zilu gave him a 'surprise' instead.

"If I had known this would happen, I would have told her sooner," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly.

"How did you do that?" Chen Zilu couldn't help but ask.

“Don’t worry about how I did it,” Jiang Ye said. “I just can do it.”

"."

Chen Zilu's expression was somewhat strange.

She knew Jiang Ye must have secrets, and she never asked about them, but at this moment, she began to feel curious.

The Polar Sea Galaxy opens once every ten years, and over ten years, one can only obtain eight bottles of Polar Sea Essence.

But Jiang Ye?
Receiving two portions of Extreme Ocean Essence every month is something that has never been heard of in the entire Blue Star civilization, right?
"Anyway."

"Don't worry about me," Jiang Ye continued.

"Okay." Chen Zilu nodded gently.

Jiang Ye placed the metal bottle in his hand on the table: "It's for my senior sister."

Chen Zilu did not refuse.

"Buzz!" A flash of light appeared in her hand, and a piece of blood-red bark appeared in her palm. The bark had very few wrinkles, was crystal clear, and had a structure like jade.

"This is the Blood Jade Divine Crystal," Chen Zilu said. "It will help you break through to the fourth level."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Jiang Ye didn't hesitate and took it. The Blood Jade Divine Crystal was cold to the touch, but once held in his palm, a warm sensation immediately followed.

Those with the word 'god' in their name are all extraordinary.

This is clearly another extremely precious treasure.

"Senior sister," Jiang Ye suddenly asked, "Why didn't you participate in the Ten Schools League?"

“There’s no need,” Chen Zilu said. “For me, breaking through to the fifth level is more important.”

"The Star Sea will open in two months, are you going or not?"

"Don't worry, I have a special spot."

"it is good."

Jiang Ye nodded and smiled, "Senior sister, aren't you going to ask about my match results?"

“You should be able to win the championship easily, right?” Chen Zilu said matter-of-factly.

“That’s true.” Jiang Ye smiled.

Chen Zilu also smiled and said, "It seems you really are the champion. The champion of ten schools, that's quite an achievement."

“My goal is the All-Star Battle,” Jiang Ye said.

"Star Wars?"

Chen Zilu was slightly taken aback, then nodded and said, "The next All-Star Battle is less than a year away. You should start preparing."

"I think Senior Sister will participate too?" Jiang Ye asked with a smile.

"You want to compete with me?" Chen Zilu glanced at him.

“No.” Jiang Ye smiled slightly. “I want to join you in taking down those superhumans.”

Chen Zilu was taken aback.

She seemed surprised that Jiang Ye would have such ambitions.

moment.

“Okay.” A beautiful smile appeared on Chen Zilu’s pretty face: “Then you have to catch up with me quickly, otherwise when the battle of the stars comes, it will be difficult for you and me to be assigned to the same battlefield.”

"There's still a year left, that's enough." Jiang Ye smiled confidently.

"Tch." Seeing his confidence, Chen Zilu couldn't help but snort: "It's not like you're the only one who can improve. Don't forget I can also break through."

"Then let's have a competition! Who's faster?" Jiang Ye said with a smile.

"No comparison," Chen Zilu scoffed.

She'd have to be crazy to compete with this guy in cultivation speed. Breaking through three realms in a year is simply insane.

"Haha, I'm not kidding."

Jiang Ye smiled and said, "Then I'll go back to cultivate first and try my best to catch up with you."

"Senior sister, please take good care of yourself."

He noticed that Chen Zilu was pale and clearly not in good condition; she needed to rest.

“Okay, you can go back now.” Chen Zilu nodded.

Jiang Ye didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

Chen Zilu watched his retreating figure.

Only after Jiang Ye's figure had completely disappeared did she turn around, a thought appearing in her peach blossom eyes.

"Can this guy fight someone with extraordinary talent?"

She had never considered this before.

But now? Chen Zilu recalled Jiang Ye's fighting prowess and suddenly felt that it might not be impossible.

Whoosh!
A figure flew out of Star Garden No. 10.

"Bai Gui," Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Will the damage to his innate clone worsen the symptoms of the Soul Devouring Syndrome?"

“Yes.” Bai Gui nodded.

"Is there any way to repair the Innate Avatar?" Jiang Ye couldn't help but ask.

Even if a broken mirror is mended, it cannot restore the foundation of martial arts.

Not to mention innate talent.

“The damage to the innate avatar is actually a damage to the soul,” Bai Gui explained. “There are actually quite a few ways to repair the soul.”

“It’s just that your Blue Star civilization would hardly need to use it,” Bai Gui shook his head.

"Is there really no way?" Jiang Ye frowned slightly.

Bai Gui paused for a moment.

After a while.

“In the master’s legacy, there are several techniques that can nourish the soul,” Bai Gui said. “But those techniques can only be unlocked after you break through to the seventh level.”

"Seven Breakthroughs?" Jiang Ye frowned.

He's only broken through to the third level; how long will it take him to break through to the seventh level?
It seems like it will never happen.

"If the innate clone is damaged, will it heal naturally?" Jiang Ye asked unwillingly.

"No." Bai Gui shook his head: "Either cultivate a spiritual cultivation technique or nurture it with a treasure. There is no other way."

Does that mean that every time Chen Zilu cultivates, she will suffer that kind of near-collapse pain?

"Seven Breakthroughs." Jiang Ye made up his mind.

If this is the only way, then he must achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible in order to alleviate his senior sister's pain.

"A divine opportunity."

"Two months from now, in the Star Sea," Jiang Ye thought to himself, "there will definitely be amazing opportunities there; I must seize them."

Even the No. 7 ancient star is only a place of opportunity of the second-class level.

This brought about such an improvement for Jiang Ye.

A divinely fortuitous location? It must contain even more astonishing treasures.

While pondering, Jiang Ye had already flown back to the vicinity of Xingyuan Area 11.

suddenly.

"Hmm?" Jiang Ye's expression hardened.

hum!
The sky in front of him suddenly darkened.

The sky suddenly lost its color, as if an invisible hand had drawn away all the light, and inky blackness surged in from all directions like a tide.

In the blink of an eye, the whole world seemed to plunge into bottomless darkness.

Jiang Ye frowned slightly, knowing that he had entered some kind of invisible realm.

The power of this realm does not come from the Dao bone.

But -

extraordinary!

"Jiang Ye." A voice rang out, not from heaven and earth, but exploding in Jiang Ye's mind.

This feeling.

It was as if a deity was speaking, grand and powerful, each word piercing the depths of the soul, making one tremble.

Fortunately, Jiang Ye's martial arts will was extremely firm, and he was not afraid of these things at all.

"Who are you?" Jiang Ye asked.

"You don't need to know," the booming voice said. "Stay away from Chen Zilu. This is a warning."

"Warning?" Jiang Ye's expression remained calm.

between heaven and earth.

The wind and clouds suddenly stopped, and even the air seemed to freeze.

Only a kind of overwhelming pressure was quietly spreading, suffocating people, causing the earth to tremble slightly, and the surrounding buildings to be distorted and blurred under this invisible pressure.

Right there in this deathly silence.

"Boom!" A deafening roar, seemingly from the ages past, exploded out. It wasn't thunder, but it was even more awe-inspiring than thunder.

That was the sound of some enormous thing tearing through the void.

Immediately afterwards, a blurry outline appeared in the dark sky. At first, it was just a phantom that stretched across the sky and earth, but in the blink of an eye, it solidified at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A dark purple statue.

Its body was enormous, its face was indistinct, yet it exuded majesty.

"Whoosh!" This statue seemed to control the entire world. It lowered its head and looked at Jiang Ye. For a moment, it was as if the whole world was pressing down on Jiang Ye.

This feeling of oppression.

It is not only aimed at the physical body, but also at the soul!
It not only makes one's knees weak, but also evokes a sense of awe and a heartfelt desire to kneel down and worship.

It was as if a god was unleashing his power!
If it were any other third- or even fourth-level powerhouse, they would probably have already knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

However, Jiang Ye's martial arts will was extremely strong and was not affected much.

His face was icy as he stared coldly at the statue.

at this time.

"Wow!"

A vertical line suddenly appeared in the pitch-black sky.

As if cleaved in two by a single stroke, the vertical line expanded rapidly, and countless icy auras surged in wildly.

Just for a moment.

The whole world seemed to be eroded by ice, even the air was frozen, but Jiang Ye did not feel any discomfort.

"call!"

A slender figure appeared, her back to Jiang Ye.

She was barefoot, her white dress fluttering wildly in the wind, and her long, jet-black hair was visibly turning snow-white.

"Zhou Xingkong".

"Do you want to die?"

A voice filled with coldness and killing intent rang out, like a thousand-year-old iceberg, instantly dimming the brilliance of the sun in the sky, as if it had been completely frozen.
