Shen Yi started running the primordial art; the next moment the dou qi emerged out from his arm and covered the rune stone.
The stone weight started reducing, and it started floating up wrapped inside his dou qi; slowly a heavy energy seeped out from it and passed through his arm and meridians, merging with the large core in his dantian.
At the same time, the dou qi flow in his body slowed down, and extreme pain spread through his acupoints and meridian; even the veins on his whole body bulged, as if countless pebbles were passing through his tiny veins, meridians, and acupoints.
Shen Yi felt a strange kind of heaviness in his physique, which he didn't feel before, as the energy transformed into heavy dou qi. Countless dou crystals condensed inside his meridians and on the surface of his bones, which is the sign of a breakthrough to the dou ancestor realm.
After a while,
Dou Ancestor, First Star Achieved.
Pop!!!
Shen Yi snapped open his pupils as popping sounds spread around from his physique. The void around his physique trembled, but no dou qi pressure swept out from his body as he contained the aftermath inside his body.
He glanced at the little baby lion still sleeping peacefully on the stone platform nearby.
'This little guy won't wake up, even if the sky is flipped upside down.'
Shen Yi thought to himself, and then he stood up, storing away the dim stone in his storage ring.
Immediately the void around him trembled, emitting a rattling sound, followed by his slight physical movements.
"My physique was already reaching top dou ancestor level during the previous realm; now it's definitely in the rank of dou venerate realm."
He muttered thoughtfully as he focused on his physical strength and started controlling his movements, agility, and dou qi flow so that he could avoid unconscious resonance with the space law and disturb the void around.
After a while he appeared beside the baby purple lion beast, and then he picked it up under one arm using his dou qi without disturbing its sleep, and then he flew outside the cave toward the opposite direction of the Wutan city.
"First I will deal with the misty cloud sect and then visit the Jia Nan academy."
He muttered thoughtfully while crossing above the beast mountain range.
After a while, he reached the destination, looking at the buildings on the mountain peak, the misty cloud sect occupying the whole majestic mountain.
It is located in a most precipitous place. Three of its sides are cliffs, and there is only one road that leads to the mountain's summit: a dangerous place that is easy to defend but hard to lay siege to.
As Shen Yi glanced at the sect disciple tightly patrolling the whole mountain like a fortress, he immediately appeared floating above the top of the mountain peak.
"Yun Shan, Yun Yun, come out…"
Immediately a heavy voice along with the dou qi pressure spread around and covered the whole sect and its disciple.
The next moment a few figures flew out from different buildings below and halted in front of him in the air; they are the elders of the misty cloud sect.
After looking at the young face of Shen Yi as he stood in the void without any support, their faces changed completely.
'Such a young Dou ancestor? When did such a character appear in the empire?'
"Your excellency, welcome to the misty cloud sect…"
One of the elders wanted to speak; Shen Yi glanced at him. The next moment his words stuck in his mouth and his expression turned pale after feeling the heavy pressure fall on his shoulder.
"Call her out, I don't have patience…" Shen Yi spoke calmly, looking at him.
Meanwhile, all the disciples below turned pale, feeling the heavy pressure affecting them; the air around them became heavy, freezing them in place.
Finally another figure clad in blue with a veil on her face flew outside the main building and stopped in front of him.
She was wearing a tight dress that covered her exquisite frame, while a strange-looking long sword hanging on her waist was emitting a green-colored light. Her black hair was held in place by a noble-looking phoenix accessory.
She glanced at Shen Yi silently; while anyone could notice a huge surprise in her eyes, she then returned to her senses and spoke with a light cough.
"Ahem, Your Excellency, I am Yun Yun, the sect leader of the Misty Cloud Sect…"
Shen Yi glanced at her calmly and then replied,
"I am Shen Yi; you must have heard about me… I was the one who annihilated the Mo clan, and I also recently killed one of your disciples named Mo Li in the Xiao clan… I am here to warn you that if I see any Mo clan members, I will kill them, and if your sect comes in my way or retaliates against someone else for my action, then I will destroy it."
Shen Yi's powerful voice spread around along with a glimpse of pressure; immediately the elders' and disciples' faces changed. Some elders who had good relationships with the Mo family clenched their fists but didn't dare to say anything.
Yun Yun glanced at him solemnly while sweat beads condensed on her temple, then she took a deep breath and nodded, "Your Excellency, rest assured… If you have enmity with the Mo clan, our sect won't participate in it and will stay away from your affairs."
Shen Yi nodded, looking at her, and replied while retracting his dou qi pressure.
"That's more like it."
After speaking, he turned around and flew away without saying anything else, while everyone inside the misty cloud sect sighed in relief.
"I didn't expect this little guy to rise up so fast. I asked for orders to kill him and avenge the Mo clan, but you didn't allow it because of the royal clan... now he is threatening our sect."
One of the elders flew forward and reminded her with a cold expression on his face, looking at Yun Yun. He is the big elder Yun Leng, who had a very good relationship with Mo Cheng of the Mo clan.
"Eight years have passed since Master has been in retreat, and I just didn't want to give the royal clan an opportunity to attack our sect during his absence… Who could have thought that there would be such a monstrous talent hiding in the empire… A fifteen- or sixteen-year-old Dou ancestor is unheard of even in the central plains."
Yun Yun replied, looking at the direction in which Shen Yi just left with a deep gaze; the elder Yun Leng and others around her fell silent, and then all of them turned around and returned to their residence building below in the mountain.
