Chapter 256 - Obscene Preparation
I gave the man at the door a polite nod. He turned without a word and disappeared into the gloom of the tunnel, his footsteps fading like a dying echo.
I closed the door and lingered, eyes fixed on the rough wooden surface, thoughts swirling in the silence.
A scale teetered in my mind: risk on one side, curiosity and purpose o...

Meeting someone at the peak of Foundation Establishment was always an experience. There was an invisible weight to them and a pressure that felt heavier than just Qi. This guy felt especially dangerous, the kind of cultivator likely to step into Core Formation within the next decade or so.
He looked relatively young for his stage. By cu...

The deeper we ventured into the catacombs, the more the walls seemed to close in, not just with darkness but with death itself. The skulls lining the stone walls grew more abundant, packed tighter together until there was hardly a bare patch of rock left untouched. Their hollow eyes stared blankly into the dim corridor, countless and unblink...

We spent five months on the road after the Molten Sky Island incident, traveling through every kind of biome imaginable. Forests, mountains, open fields, deserts, swamps… even a sect buried beneath a graveyard that practiced strange and borderline heretical techniques.
Most of these sects were small powers clinging to relevance. Like ...

We were locked in a silent duel of minds, reading each other with every breath and subtle shift in stance. Every glance carried weight.
But with fireballs streaking through the air, their heat warping space and their roar swallowing thought, that mental chess match began to tilt in my favor.

After the cultivators flew past us, their figures vanished into the horizon like streaks of light, with some flying higher looked like falling meteors.
Then, it began.
The monstrous beasts I had sensed earlier began to vanish one by one. Their presences, once pressing at the edge of my perception like something moving in the cor...

As I gently patted the egg, the warmth radiating from its surface remained steady and soothing. It wasn't the kind of heat that burned, but something deeper. A quiet, living warmth that pulsed faintly beneath my palm like a heartbeat. The shell was smooth, almost glass-like, but firm and dense. That constant warmth, unwavering and calm, gav...

The sensation of having absolute control over someone was… strange.
It settled over me slowly, like warm water pouring down my spine, foreign but not unwelcome. I could feel the creature’s thoughts, its instincts, its urges… and I could silence them all with a mere flicker of will. It wasn’t just obedience...

The middle-aged man didn’t even bother flying back to his city to check with his superiors. He just shook his head.
“I mean no offense to the Song Clan, and we’ve heard how talented Song Song is. But the beast waves have been acting strange lately, and we can’t afford to send any troops for support,” he said, without blinking...

As we drew closer to the rods embedded deep in the sand, their true scale began to hit us. They looked large from a distance, but now, standing beneath them, they were colossal. Towering into the sky, each one stretched as high as a twenty-story apartment building.
But there was something else… strange about the whole st...

Walking through endless green fields in another part of the Blazing Sun Sect's territory, the soft spring sun beat down on us while a gentle breeze cooled the air.
Fu Yating gulped down a glass bottle full of water, as she didn't have the internal Qi or the physique to handle the unnatural dry heat around here. She had been drinking qui...

As soon as I flicked the girl and my fingertip brushed against her forehead, a jolt ran through me. In the next instant, images began to bloom within my mind, soft and blurred at first, like a painted canopy slowly unfurling in the wind. Shapes took form. Fleeting moments and flickers of memory until everything sharpened into clarity.

I looked at the pills and elixirs on sale. A powerful alchemy program was the cornerstone of any good and great sect or clan. Things like Qi Sensing Pills helped people sense Qi and break through to Qi Gathering. They were crucial for any clan or sect to have in stock.
If a sect had a well-developed Alchemy program or pagoda, Qi Sensing Pills mig...

A month had passed since we left the Liu Clan, and in that time, spring had fully taken hold of the land. The world was alive with color, with lush, endless green stretching as far as the eye could see. Hills rolled gently across the horizon, blanketed in wildflowers of every shade, their petals swaying softly in the breeze. The once-barren trees ...

I looked at the map of the city and clan compound on my desk. The entire place had been built on top of a strange cave system.
Lately, I'd decided to leave behind a few things that might help the clan and ensure my parents' safety. At least as much as anything could when it came to situations like this.

The Blazing Sun Sect was destroyed? That was such a weird thing to think about. Even weirder to hear it said out loud, out of nowhere. It felt almost trivial… but it wasn't.

Spring arrived almost overnight. The city buzzed with energy from the spring festival, streets adorned with colorful banners and lanterns swaying gently in the breeze.

As the first rays of morning light spilled across the Liu Clan grounds, a soft golden hue bathed everything in a serene glow. The faint chirping of birds outside my window broke the quiet stillness of the early hour.

Winter passed, and spring was in full swing before I knew it. Some patches of snow still lingered in the house's shadowed corners, stubborn holdouts against the warmer days.

Mao Zhi stood at the gate of Greengrass Town, staring at the vast field of snow that now covered what once had been lush grasslands.

Liu Bo stood to the side, clutching his mangled arm with a trembling hand. His face was pale, and a sheen of sweat glistened on his forehead despite the biting cold.

A growl-like groan echoed from the now-buried cavern. Low and resonant, it was more felt than heard. The avalanche had worked well, smothering the cavern entrance beneath a crushing mass of ice and debris.
