Divine artifact!
Yes, only these two words could describe their current state of mind. They knew too well what a 50-fold cultivation speed meant.
Thus...
Meng Tianfang, Liu Tian, and others began cultivating within the Exquisite Pagoda. Ye Xuan did the same, while the Ancestor-level spaceship continued its journey towards Atlantis.
Time flowed by within the Exquisite Pagoda.
The distance to Atlantis was about one day's travel, which translated to five days within the Exquisite Pagoda.
On the first day, Meng Tianfang and Liu Tian both broke through to the peak of the Ninth Order Great Emperor realm. Wang Zhantian and the others, meanwhile, reached the ultimate peak of the First Order Great Emperor. It was worth noting that the resources used by Wang Zhantian and the others were beneficial even to Venerables.
One day!
Three days! Five days!!
They would never forget the feeling of their cultivation soaring during the five days spent cultivating inside the Exquisite Pagoda, as the impression was too profound.
One day outside passed quickly, just as they neared the planet Atlantis.
Both Meng Tianfang and Liu Tian reached the ultimate peak of the Ninth Order Great Emperor. As for Wang Zhantian, Leng Feiyan, and the others, they had all consistently advanced to the Third Order Great Emperor realm. The feeling of becoming stronger was etched into their memories.
Finally, Ye Xuan, Mo Xuanyou, Bing Xiaoxue, and Dongfang Qingkong appeared before the Ye King's Manor.
"Fourth Junior Brother, Fifth Junior Sister."
Mo Xuanyou's gaze fell upon their Master's residence, a slight curve forming on his lips. "This is Master's residence. Our Martial Aunt and Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister are also here."
"Oh!?"
Upon hearing Mo Xuanyou's words, Dongfang Qingkong and Bing Xiaoxue's eyes lit up. They were also very curious about their Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister, whom they had never met.
"Let's go."
Ye Xuan looked at the familiar manor, a smile playing on his lips, and stepped inside.
"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"
Those guarding the Ye King's Manor immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing Ye Xuan, their eyes filled with undisguised admiration and respect.
Soon, they arrived at the martial arts training ground.
Mo Xuanyou's lips curved as he watched the two individuals sparring on the training ground. They were Feng Chen and Mu Ling'er, both of whom had now reached the peak of the Fourth Order Great Emperor realm. While they couldn't compare to Mo Xuanyou's current ultimate peak of the Fifth Order Great Emperor, their progress was still quite impressive without the acceleration of the Exquisite Pagoda.
"Heh heh, Master, I'm going to go greet Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister."
As he spoke, Mo Xuanyou's body surged with an immense sword intent, carrying a fearsome attack as he lunged towards his Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister.
"Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, long time no see!!"
His voice echoed as Mo Xuanyou's sword pressed down, its speed astonishingly fast. He unleashed his full power as a peak Fifth Order Great Emperor, clearly not holding back.
"Xuanyou?"
"This... the ultimate peak of the Fifth Order Great Emperor, how is that possible!!"
Feng Chen and Mu Ling'er immediately joined forces, unleashing their combined attack. With a thunderous roar...
The three attacks collided, energy erupting in all directions. The Ice River Giant Beast's clone, standing nearby, blinked in surprise. "Good lad, that kid has actually reached the ultimate peak of the Fifth Order Great Emperor."
"Damn it, this old man seems to have acquired another incredible treasure."
The Ice River Giant Beast's clone licked its lips and couldn't help but grumble, "That Elf clan clone has been hoarding wealth since he took control of the Qiankun Tower on Qiankun Planet. I wonder if his cultivation has surpassed mine yet."
The Ice River Giant Beast's clone mused. He had already become a First Order Venerable. In terms of combat power, instantly killing Mo Junlin, the Emperor of the Star River Empire, was no problem.
Based on his speculation, the Elf clan clone had likely also reached the First Order Venerable realm!
"But... my strength??"
The Ice River Giant Beast's clone then tried to check its main body's cultivation, only to find that it couldn't sense it at all. A shock ran through him. Damn it, what was the main body's cultivation level? Even his First Order Venerable realm couldn't sense it. This was unnatural. Could it be that he was a Second Order Venerable? But even a Third Order Venerable shouldn't be completely imperceptible.
Could it be... that shameless fellow, the main body, was even beyond the Third Order Venerable realm??
*Boom!*
On the training ground, after a single exchange, Feng Chen and Mu Ling'er were sent flying over ten feet, clearly unable to match Mo Xuanyou even with their combined attack.
"Heh heh."
"Eldest Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, peak Fourth Order Great Emperor, your progress is quite good~"
*Thump!*
Before Mo Xuanyou could gloat, Ye Xuan flicked his finger and tapped him on the head.
"What's there to show off about?"
Ye Xuan looked at his third disciple. "If either your Eldest Senior Brother or Second Senior Sister had followed me, they would be even stronger than you are now."
"Master!!"
Seeing their Master approach, Feng Chen and Mu Ling'er's faces lit up with joy.
Ye Xuan smiled gently at them, then his gaze fell upon the two disciples beside him. "Right, let me introduce you. These are the two new disciples I've taken on this trip to the Dragon Yang Empire. This is your Fourth Junior Brother, Dongfang Qingkong, and this is your Fifth Junior Sister, Bing Xiaoxue."
"Wow~"
Hearing their Master's introduction, Mu Ling'er's eyes sparkled. "What a beautiful little Junior Sister~"
Mu Ling'er skipped over to Bing Xiaoxue. "Master, you've finally taken on a female disciple again! I have a companion now."
"Little Junior Sister Xue, I'm your Second Senior Sister, my name is Mu Ling'er. It's a pleasure to meet you."
The delighted Mu Ling'er immediately moved to get closer to Bing Xiaoxue and spoke in a low voice. Seeing her Second Senior Sister's warmth, Bing Xiaoxue's face flushed slightly. "Greetings, Second Senior Sister."
"Hey, why call me Second Senior Sister? It sounds so distant."
After a pause, Mu Ling'er continued, "How about this, from now on, you can call me Sister Ling'er."
"Mm."
As the two beautiful girls chattered, the Ice River Giant Beast's clone's gaze fell upon the fifth disciple, Bing Xiaoxue. His expression jolted. "What... what kind of bloodline is this? It makes even me feel a sense of unease."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the Ice River Giant Beast's clone pulled the main body aside.
"Main body, what... what happened on your trip to the Dragon Yang Empire? Your cultivation level? And that girl's bloodline??"
Unquestionably, the Ice River Giant Beast's clone had a string of questions.
Ye Xuan heard him and a smile played on his lips. "This time, the gains were quite substantial."
As he spoke, Ye Xuan's gaze fell upon the Ice River Giant Beast's clone, and he immediately recognized its First Order Venerable cultivation level. "First Order Venerable, your progress is quite good."
"Actually, my current cultivation is at the peak of the Sixth Order Venerable, and I should be not far from the ultimate peak of the Sixth Order Venerable."
Ice River Giant Beast's clone, "!!!"
The main body's words fell upon the Ice River Giant Beast's clone's mind like a world-ending thunder tribulation. He looked at the main body with disbelief. "Holy hell, main body, what... what did you say!?"
"Peak Sixth Order Venerable, and not far from the ultimate peak. This..."
He swallowed hard. Undoubtedly, the Ice River Giant Beast's clone was stunned. Damn it, did the main body take any pills~~
