Chapter Eighty-One: Accidentally Breaking Through

  Requesting recommendations and collections, thank you, thanks to Tang Guangfeng brother's reward, thanks.

  "Only direct disciples can obtain the true inheritance of Yunyang Sect." Lu Shaoyou seemed to understand that the difference between direct and ordinary disciples was indeed great. This undoubtedly meant that only direct disciples were considered insiders of Yunyang Sect, while ordinary disciples were merely outsiders. Direct disciples would eventually become core figures in Yunyang Sect, and it was natural to expect special treatment in their cultivation.

  "Elder, how can one become a direct disciple?" Lu Shaoyou continued to ask. He wasn't particularly interested in the difference between direct and indirect disciples, but if he were to become a direct disciple himself, it would likely be much easier for him to obtain the Million-Year Red Copper and the Floating Light Flashing Shadow Body Technique.

  "In half a month, there will be a competition in the sect. If your new disciples can enter the top ten, they can become direct disciples. Those who are talented do not need to compete and can directly become direct disciples." said Bai Mei old man.

  "I wonder how many new disciples there will be this time?" Yang Miao asked.

  "Each generation of personally transmitted disciples is three thousand people." The White Eyebrowed Old Man said with a slight smile.

  "Three thousand." Lu Shaoyou's heart skipped a beat, three thousand new disciples, all of whom were extremely talented, and entering the top ten would be absolutely difficult.

  At the same time, Lu Shaoyou also thought of the power of Yunyang Sect. Every three years, 3,000 new disciples enter Yunyang Sect, and over the years, the power of Yunyang Sect has reached a terrifying level. Every young talent with exceptional aptitude is absorbed by Yunyang Sect, leaving other powers with even less opportunity to grow stronger. This Yunyang Sect is indeed very cunning.

  "Alright, you all cultivate properly for a month and a half, whether or not you can become direct disciples will depend on your luck then." After White Eyebrow Elder finished speaking, he closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the back of the rock eagle, seemingly starting to regulate his breathing.

  Qin Tianhao, Lu Shaohu, and Yang Miao also closed their eyes to rest, while Dugu Binglan and the maid Cuiyu nodded slightly at Lu Shao. There were others on the back of the rock eagle, so it wasn't convenient to say anything, and they also started to adjust their breath.

  Lu Shao's eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed down at the ground below, the height was indeed a bit daunting. However, this Rock Eagle had undergone training from the Cloud Sun Sect and should be able to handle it without issue. With that thought, his hands formed a seal, circulating the Yin-Yang Spiritual Martial Arts technique, beginning to refine the energy within his body that he had absorbed from Zhao Da.

  After a moment, Lu Shao had already forgotten that he was on the back of a high-altitude rock eagle, entering a state of deep tranquility, his breathing slow and even, with a faint yellow aura enveloping his body.

  In Lu Shaoyou's body, he was frantically refining the true energy that had swallowed him, and ripples appeared in the air around him. Fortunately, at this time, on the back of the Rock Eagle, the air waves generated by the Rock Eagle's flight completely covered up the air waves caused by Lu Shaoyou, and even the White Eyebrow Old Man did not notice the changes around Lu Shaoyou.

  In Lu Shaoyou's body, the true energy that had been absorbed was being refined through the Yin-Yang Spiritual Martial Formula and could be used by him. It then continuously flowed into Lu Shaoyou's dantian and qihai.

  Lu Shao could feel that his dantian was constantly filling up, and breaking through to the fifth rank of martial artist was basically a matter of time.

  As the refinement continued, a stream of pure true energy entered the dantian qihai. These true energies, within the dantian qihai, were like clouds, and under the continuous influx of true energy, Lu Shaoyou felt that his body's dantian qihai was expanding at a visible rate.

  After a day of refining the true energy in his body, Lu Shaoyou's refined true energy had already filled up his dantian and qihai, and the true energy inside him had gradually filled up most of his meridians. The refinement was still ongoing at this point.

  After another hour passed, Lu Shaoyou discovered that the true energy within his body had reached a critical point. If any more true energy entered, it would be like an explosion.

  "Give me compression, burst." Lu Shao's heart drank, and the energy in his lower abdomen, dan yuan, and qi hai suddenly mobilized, generating a huge wave, which finally roared up fiercely.

  Lu Shao's eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly snapped open. A sharp, piercing light shot out from his eyes, almost blindingly bright. After a moment, the light was retracted and disappeared from his eyes.

  "Finally broke through the fifth layer of Wushi." Feeling the thick true energy inside his body, Lu Shaoyou was shocked in his heart. The absorbed true energy transformed into energy, and after refining it himself, the effect was much better than refining Dan medicine.

  "If one could wildly absorb the true energy of others, their strength would break through and be extremely terrifying." Lu Shaoyou thought to himself, in just a day and night's time, he had already broken through one level of strength, this was too terrifying.

  "Shaoyou, have you broken through to the Fifth Rank Warrior?" The White Eyebrow Elder opened his eyes and stared at Lu Shaoyou in surprise. The fluctuations caused by Lu Shaoyou's breakthrough just now were naturally impossible to hide from him.

  "I was already on the verge of a breakthrough, and with this bit of practice, I accidentally broke through." Lu Shaoyou said, his heart having long been prepared with an excuse. His level of strength could be hidden, but his own breakthrough would naturally not be able to deceive White Browed Elder.

  When they heard Lu Shaoyou and Bai Meizhong Lao's words, at this time Qin Tianhao, Yang Miao, Lu Shaohu, Dugu Binglan and others also opened their eyes wide, staring at Lu Shaoyou in surprise.

  "Practicing and practicing, I accidentally broke through." The White Eyebrow Elder stared blankly and said: "A fifth-level warrior, a third-class martial artist, with such talent it's not difficult to become a direct disciple, but I'm afraid that once you enter the sect, an inner sect elder will come looking for you."

  Staring at Lu Shaoyou, a chill flashed in Lu Shaotiger's eyes, but he could do nothing about it. Lu Shaoyou's strength had already surpassed his own.

  "Let's eat something and continue our cultivation, it's still early, we have a long way to go before we can reach Yunyang Sect." said Bai Mei, taking out some dry rations. The crowd was not yet able to go several months without eating, according to legend, only when one reached the level of Wu Shuai could they no longer need to eat. As for Wu Bo and Wu Jiang strong practitioners, at most they could go a few months without eating, but as for the current crowd of warriors' level of strength, they were not yet able to achieve this.

  Everyone was eating the dry rations brought out by Bai Mei Old Man, Lu Shao Yu gazed at Zhou Kong, the rock eagle that Lu Wu Shuang was riding on was not far ahead, and it seemed that everyone on the rock eagle was also cultivating.

  After finishing the dry rations, everyone continued to devote themselves to their cultivation. Seeing Lu Shaoyou break through again, they all felt pressure, as if everyone wanted to enter the Yunyang Sect's inner circle of personally taught disciples.

  Lu Shao's energy was once again poured into the refinement of his body, breaking through to the fifth level of Martial Artist. The true Qi energy within his Dan Tian had not even been refined halfway yet.
