Chapter 358: 165 Breakthrough to Cave Void Realm_2
Liu Ningshuang felt uncomfortable being held like this, especially with a junior brother watching. She broke free from Jian Ruyu’s embrace, “I’ve been cultivating as well.”
Then Liu Ningshuang sensed something, her eyes widened, and a wave of emotions surged through her cold eyes as she looked at Jian Ruyu, “…Your Cultivation Base?”
Jian Ruyu smiled, “I’ve broken through to the Cave Void Realm!”
At these words, Liu Ningshuang was somewhat astonished, “You’ve reached the Cave Void? How did it happen so quickly?”
Jian Ruyu looked a bit embarrassed and glanced at Lu Yi, then said, “It’s all thanks to junior brother. He gave me a Sword Heart Fruit which allowed me to transform into an Immortal Body.”
Liu Ningshuang: “???”
She looked over at Lu Yi ominously, “Junior brother? How come I wasn’t aware of this?”
Lu Yi chuckled awkwardly, “Hahaha, well, it wasn’t really a big deal.”
Suddenly, Liu Ningshuang thought of something and asked, “Could it be that Yun Xi was able to form an Immortal Body because of you too?”
Previously, Liu Ningshuang hadn’t considered this, but now, with Jian Ruyu’s precedent, she immediately thought of Yun Xi’s sudden transformation into an Immortal Body right after Lu Yi’s visit to the Ten Thousand Flowers Sect!@@novelbin@@
“What? The Immortal Body from the Ten Thousand Flowers Sect is also because of junior brother?!” Jian Ruyu also widened her eyes, looking towards Lu Yi.
The emergence of an Immortal Body from the Ten Thousand Flowers Sect had shocked the entire Tianming. Even Jian Ruyu, who was in seclusion at the Divine Sword Sect at the time, heard about it, but she never imagined that the Immortal Body was also created by her junior brother.
Facing the intense gaze of the two, Lu Yi felt a chill on his neck. He cleared his throat and said, “I did indeed give Yun Xi a Nine-colored Bellflower…”
“Nine-colored Bellflower…” both Liu Ningshuang and Jian Ruyu’s pupils contracted in shock.
“The Nine-colored Bellflower that has only appeared three times throughout the history of Tianming?” Jian Ruyu exclaimed, her eyes wide, “Such a treasure, and you just gave it away, junior brother?”
Liu Ningshuang looked deeply at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi cleared his throat and said, “It was a serendipitous find. It’s not very useful to me, but it’s perfect for Yun Xi.”
Hearing this, both Liu Ningshuang and Jian Ruyu fell silent.
Especially Liu Ningshuang, who felt tremendous pressure. While she was originally stronger than Jian Ruyu, now that Jian Ruyu had transformed into an Immortal Body and broken through to the Cave Void Realm, surpassing her.
And there was also Yun Xi, who had similarly transformed into an Immortal Body and was catching up fast.
Liu Ningshuang felt besieged on all sides, fearing that if things continued this way, her power would fall behind and she wouldn’t even be able to compete with Ruyu and Yun Xi, let alone chase after junior brother.
Liu Ningshuang glanced at Jian Ruyu, who was also looking at their junior brother with questionable eyes.
Thinking about Yun Xi’s situation, Liu Ningshuang secretly clenched her teeth, fearing that Ruyu might be the same as Yun Xi.
Liu Ningshuang was filled with a sense of crisis and thought she should perhaps take the initiative. At least that way, she might still come out on top.
The moment she had this thought, Liu Ningshuang herself was startled—where did such a thought come from?
It’s all junior brother’s fault!
Seeing Liu Ningshuang’s serious expression, Lu Yi comforted, “Sister, in a few days, I’ll go out and see. Perhaps, by a lucky coincidence, I’ll find an Immortal Treasure suitable for you, and then sister will definitely become an Immortal Body too!”
Liu Ningshuang, upon hearing this, looked at Lu Yi, and spoke solemnly, “Immortal Treasures are extremely rare and precious, sometimes not seen in a million years. Junior brother, you’ve acquired two kinds already, that’s already incredibly fortunate. How could you possibly find them continuously?”
Lu Yi, however, felt that as his Cultivation Base improved and he encountered stronger targets on tasks, obtaining other Immortal Treasures wouldn’t be too difficult.
Sooner or later, he would find Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that matched his senior sister.
Of course, Lu Yi found it inappropriate to say this out loud to Liu Ningshuang, so he just smiled, “I think my luck is still pretty good, maybe I really will find one?”
Liu Ningshuang gave a faint smile, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
She turned to Jian Ruyu and asked, “Ruyu, how did you come to White Cloud Sect?”
Jian Ruyu smiled, “I am planning to train at the Sea Clan Battlefield and thought I’d come to see you all first.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Ningshuang was taken aback, then after a moment of thought, she said, “I’ll go with you.”
Upon hearing this, both Lu Yi and Jian Ruyu were startled, wide-eyed.
Lu Yi asked, “Sister, you want to go too?”
Liu Ningshuang nodded slightly, giving a slight smile, “I’ve been in seclusion recently, lacking crisis and lacking battle, with some stagnation in insights. I need to train and see different scenes.”
If this were before, Liu Ningshuang might not have such thoughts, and even now with some stagnation in her insights, her Cultivation speed was still faster than before, especially since Lu Yi gave her plenty of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
But now, with Jian Ruyu and Yun Xi both having transformed into Immortal Bodies, Liu Ningshuang felt immense pressure and couldn’t allow her insights to slow down.
Jian Ruyu’s eyes lit up, and she smiled, “This is naturally for the best. It’s good to have each other’s company! Just like the old days.”
Liu Ningshuang nodded slightly, “Mhm.”
Seeing Liu Ningshuang’s resolute expression, Lu Yi fell silent. To be honest, he was still somewhat worried for Liu Ningshuang, as her Cultivation Base was only at the Divinity Transformation Realm. Whether facing a Tribulation Crossing Great Power or even a Great Mahayana Power, it would be extremely dangerous.
