Chapter 280 - Ren Shuang’s Breakthrough

"Master, Yang Zenke, and a few disciples went out of the sword tower together with a group of new disciples. The direction that they are headed to seems to be the imperial palace. Do you want me to send an elder to protect them in secret?" Lu Sulan said as she bowed respectfully at Jiu Shen. She looked around Jiu Shen’s entire room, but she failed to see the silhouette of Long Meili. This made Lu Sulan quite confused since Long Meili was always present no matter where Jiu Shen was.

"Yang Zenke is already strong enough to protect himself, but he might not be able to save the others if something unexpected happens. Ask Hu Xiandao to tail them in secret, but tell him that he must only act when the disciples are in a dire situation." Jiu Shen said after a moment of thought. He must not allow anything to happen to those kids.

Lu Sulan acknowledged the order with a nod of her head. "I’ll inform him immediately... Uhm, master, where is Sister Meili?" She could not help but ask.

Jiu Shen stared at his disciple who had a face full of question marks. "She is still inside the sword tower. I just sent her to do something." He replied.

Hearing his answer, Lu Sulan knew that there was something more about it, but she chose not to ask more questions. "I’ll take my leave now, master."

Jiu Shen nodded his head at her and waved his hand impatiently.

Lu Sulan’s mouth twitched when she saw that, but she knew that her master was always like this, so she could only leave the room with a slightly downcast look.

Jiu Shen closed his eyes and focused his attention on the events happening inside the Spirit World. He sent Ren Shuang inside the Spirit World to maximize his chances of stepping into the Nascent God Realm. He wanted to see what the guy’s progress was.

The moment he adjusted his spiritual sight, he noticed the turbulent weather inside the Spirit World. Looking at this scene, Jiu Shen knew that Ren Shuang was currently facing his tribulation lightning. If he managed to survive this, he would become a Nascent God Realm expert!

"With Ren Shuang’s talent and foundation, he should have no problems in achieving this breakthrough. I should not show myself for the time being or he might be flustered if he sees me." Jiu Shen removed his gaze from the Spirit World and calmly waited on his seat. It shouldn’t take much time for Ren Shuang to breakthrough.

"After Ren Shuang finishes his cultivation breakthrough, I will immediately prepare before I visit the Divine Beast Continent." Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he stood up from his seat. He then walked towards his bed and gently sat beside Ice who was sleeping peacefully like an angel. He gently stroked the girl’s head and let out a warm smile.

With her eyes shut tight, Ice extended both of her arms and tightly held Jiu Shen’s hand. She then snuggled her face to the palm of his hand, her face filled with a bright smile.

"Just a bit more..." Jiu Shen whispered softly.

***

Inside the Spirit World.

Flashes of purple lightning webbed through the skies, illuminating the world with a bright glow. The savage beast living inside the Spirit World was horrified at the sight of this.

Sitting atop a tall mountain was a man with long wavy hair. His eyes were closed but he seemed to be gazing at the lightning that covered the skies.

"This should be the last wave of tribulation lightning. I never knew that it would be this horrible. If not for my strong foundation and the abundant amount of true essence in this world, I might have failed to achieve a breakthrough. Since I have all these, I will never fail master’s expectations!" The normally silent Ren Shuang muttered with confidence as he opened his eyes and glared in the direction of the lightning.

Crackle! Crackle!

The ear-splitting crackles of lightning covered the firmament, but Ren Shuang remained stoic, looking rather heroic with his fearless and almighty figure.

ZAP! Rumble!

A few streaks of lightning sped towards Ren Shuang’s lone figure, looking like dragons made of pure lightning!

Facing the incoming threat, Ren Shuang erupted with power! He channeled his true essence out of his body and covered himself with it. He then stretched both his arms, intending to punch the incoming bolts of lightning! If anyone would have seen this, they might think that this guy was a madman. However, Ren Shuang’s gaze was filled with inhuman calmness as if this was nothing in his eyes!

BANG!

The moment his fists came in contact with the bolts of lightning, a violent sound echoed about, and the entire mountain where he stood slowly cracked. The ground beneath his feet abruptly caved in, producing a huge crater that spanned more than a hundred meters!

Rumble!

The surrounding savage beast near the vicinity of the mountain turned tail and fled, afraid that they would be implicated by these violent lightning strikes.

After that final strike of tribulation lightning, the Spirit World recovered its previous tranquility.

The tall mountain which received most of the strikes was now gone. Only a huge pile of boulders and stones can be seen...

Within the crater, a figure suddenly emerged, his eyes shone like the stars as he swept his gaze in his surroundings. He slowly floated in midair and checked the condition of his body.

"The Nascent God Realm is indeed many times stronger compared to the 9th-rank Saint." He muttered when he sensed the massive leap in his power.

"Since I have already reached the Nascent God Realm, I should report back to the master. However, how do I return to Nuar?" Ren Shuang might have reached the Nascent God Realm, but he was still unaware of the secrets behind the Spirit World. He didn’t know how his master managed to send him here nor he was aware of how his master was able to command such power...

Just then, a wooden door suddenly emerged in front of him.

Ren Shuang knew what to do when he saw this door. Without hesitation, he pushed the door open.
