A smile appeared on Xu Yue's face as she looked at Bing Yue and Xu Ming through her spiritual sense, but at the same time, her true body moved towards her room.
"Now that I have done what was needed I need to focus on my own Dao," thought Xu Yue
As she entered her room, Xu Yue sat crosslegged and began meditating.
The moment Xu Yue entered meditation, she seemed to have lost track of time, becoming engrossed in her own Dao, completely unaware of the outside world.
Suddenly, after an unknown amount of time, Xu Yue looked upwards toward the clouds gathering above her and frowned.
In a few moments, Xu Yue appeared outside of the sect's formations, her eyes staring into the clouds forming above her, as if trying to look for something.
Even after bolt after bolt of lightning struck Xu Yue, she still looked at the clouds, as if silently mocking them.
By the 60th bolt, Xu Yue stretched out her hand, not letting the lightning hit her in the head anymore.
...
Bing Yue shook lightly as she looked at the terrifying bolts of lightning in the sky.
Right now, even with her extremely powerful senses, Bing Yue could not sense Xu Yue or her state, as such, even though she was aware of her power, Bing Yue was slightly worried.
In another location,
Wu Jing looked at Xu Yue who was being struck by lightning and frowned.
"Hopefully it limits itself to a 9 by 9 Heavenly tribulation," mumbled Wu Jing, unaware of the fact that the Heavenly Dao could not send more powerful tribulations against those breaking through to the minor transcendence.
"Why aren't you worried?" asked Wu Jing with anger on her face as she punched Xu Chao in the stomach with extreme force, throwing him back.
"Trying to act cool was a bad idea," thought Xu Chao as Wu Jing put him over her shoulder and continued looking at Xu Yue.
Xu Hui smiled as he looked at his son and daughter-in-law having fun, his eyes then returning to Xu Yue who was still in the tribulation.
In another location,
Looking at Xu Yue who was easily resisting the tribulation, Xu Lanfeng smiled, memories of the far gone past filling her head.
"I have already become an old woman, grandfather," said Xu Lanfeng as she looked in a particular empty spot.
After a few seconds of silence, Xu Jinming slowly began materializing next to Xu Lanfeng.
"It was really childish of me to avoid you for hundreds of millions of years grandfather," said Xu Lanfeng as she looked at Xu Jinming now with a smile on her face.
"Ming'er, Yun'er, Feng'er," mumbled Xu Jinming as deep ancient memories of his Dao Companion and daughter entered his mind.
Sadly for Xu Jinming, neither of the two managed to become immortal, leaving him only with his granddaughter.
A somewhat bitter silence then ensued between the two ancient beings.
In the middle of the tribulation,
As she looked at the clouds above, Xu Yue seemed to have seen something.
At that moment, the seed next to Xu Yue's soul suddenly cracked, and after a few moments, a tiny seedling emerged from it, causing a transformation to take place inside of Xu Yue.
In merely a few moments, the size of Xu Yue's formerly forty-meter-tall body began increasing rapidly, and at the same time, the number of stars on her forehead also began increasing at an incredible pace.
Now completely ignoring the tribulation, Xu Yue touched the now six stars on her forehead and looked down at her utterly enormous body.
"Thirty-seven Li tall," mumbled Xu Yue, completely unaware of the small increase of the concentration of the ancient bloodline in her body.
Inside of the sect,
"Thirty-seven Li, that's too tall for someone with the level of bloodline she should have," mumbled Xu Jinming as he used the ancient god blood in his body to feel Xu Yue.
"Her Dao is resonating with the Ancient God Bloodline," mumbled Xu Jinming, causing an extremely surprised expression to appear on Xu Lanfeng's face.
"What will happen if this continues?" asked Xu Lanfeng as she looked at Xu Yue with a frown on her face.
This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.
"Don't worry, nothing bad will happen, If her Dao takes a path similar to that of the ancient gods, some interesting things may happen," said Xu Jinming, as he slightly rubbed the ten white stars on his forehead, a streak of gold being able to be seen in all of them.
Xu Lanfeng breathed a sigh of relief as she heard this, after a few moments she turned back and looked at Xu Yue once again.
Inside of Xu Yue's sea of consciousness,
At the same time that Xu Yue was undergoing a heavenly tribulation, Yue was reading a technique.
'Heart Demon Incarnation'
Now that Xu Yue was about to reach the Minor Trancendance realm, she no longer needed to be afraid of the Heavenly Dao peeping in her sea of consciousness, as such, she no longer had to hide the fact that she mastered this technique.
"If that only that damn Heavenly Dao did not try to puppeteer me, I wouldn't have had to submit," mumbled Yue as she gritted her teeth.
Outside of the three thousand regions,
Looking at Yue who was sitting crosslegged, Xu Lanfeng's incarnation smiled.
"It's good that she's cautious," mumbled Xu Lanfeng as she continued looking at Yue, as she was responsible for her protection.
Even though as a heart demon, Yue would still survive inside of Xu Yue, getting her out of the Three Thousand Regions without alerting the Heavenly Dao would be tough.
"Hopefully things go alright," mumbled Xu Lanfeng, as she watched Yue's body grow to Thirty-Seven Li, exactly the same as the main body.
Inside of the Origin Sword Sect,
Xu Jinming's eye's slightly narrowed as he looked at an androgynous figure that was somehow sitting inside of the sect, watching Xu Yue breakthrough.
After talking with Xu Lanfeng for a few moments, he suddenly appeared next to the androgynous figure.
Unaware of the two beings looking at her, Xu Yue continued resisting the tribulation, and at the same time, examining her new-found strength now that her Dao seed had transformed into a Dao Seedling.
"It has improved my strength in an all-around way," mumbled Xu Yue as she used her hand as not to let the lightning bolt hit her in the face.
After thinking for a few moments, Xu Yue returned her focus onto the tribulation, the look in her eyes becoming more careful as she looked at the sky.
As time passed, Xu Yue resisted every single lightning bolt, reaching the final nine lightning bolts with ease.
When the first few bolts of the final nine lightning bolts struck Xu Yue she shrugged it off with extreme ease.
Feeling the seventh lightning bold strike her hand, Xu Yue smiled as she felt a little numbness in the hand that she had been holding up.
"Too weak, way to little energy," mumbled Xu Yue as she felt a small amount of the power of little try and strengthen her body.
As the eight lightning bolt struck her, a surprised expression could be seen on Xu Yue's face.
"The quality of this energy is really high," mumbled Xu Yue as she felt the pitiful amount of energy that entered her body from the tribulation actually managing to slightly temper it.
Not even a few moments later, Xu Yue felt some pain in her hand as the ninth lightning bolt struck it managing to actually charr it, Xu Yue did not pay attention to her hand, completely focused on the clouds in the sky.
After a few more moments, the tribulation clouds dispersed, leaving an empty sky, and once again after a few moments, a burst of white light lowered itself from the sky and enveloped Xu Yue.
...
Opening her eyes, Xu Yue's vision darted to a particular direction, completely ignoring the white light inveloping her.
Looking in the distance, Xu Yue was completely enamored with what she saw.
Inside of the Origin Sword Sect
Xu Ming looked at Bing Yue with an aggrieved expression, but even so, she still slashed out with her sword, presenting her mastery of the Origin Sword Technique to Bing Yue.
"This time It's quite good," said Bing Yue as she patted Xu Ming on the head before embracing her, still thinking about what training to put the little devil through next.
Just as Bing Yue wanted to ask Xu Ming to continue training, she suddenly felt something was different about the little devil.
Looking at the now-sleeping Xu Ming, Bing Yue suddenly noticed that Xu Ming had started growing.
"Xu Yue has surpassed the heavenly tribulation," mumbled Bing Yue as she patted Xu Ming on the forehead, feeling her warmth.
As she though about Xu Yue a large smile appeared on Bing Yue's face.
Twelve days later,
Looking at Xu Ming who seemed to have completely left her childhood behind, Bing Yue's smile had solidified.
"Where's my cute Ming'er," thought Bing Yue as a slight amount of despair filled her eyes looking at Xu Ming.
Right now, Xu Ming looked eerily similar Xu Yue back when she was sixteen, as such, Bing Yue returned from her despair in a few minutes.
"I should just treat her as a teenage daughter," thought Bing Yue, and as that thought entered her mind, Bing Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thankfully there's no men on the peak other than those that belong to Lin Xue," mumbled Bing Yue as more and more Xu Ming protection measures appeared in her mind.
As such, Bing Yue was completely lost in thought, actually not noticing the fact that Xu Ming had awoken.
"Mother!" shouted Xu Ming as she embraced Bing Yue keeping her head in Bing Yue's chest.
"What is it Ming'er?" asked Bing Yue as she looked at the still, slightly childish Xu Ming.
"I miss you and mother," said Xu Ming as she bitterly remembered the dark void in which she was stuck.
Hearing that, all of Bing Yue's training plans for the day crumbled into dust, she simply stood there, letting Xu Ming vent her emotions.
"Succes," thought Xu Ming as she managed to avoid training for another day.
Looking at Xu Ming's sly face, Bing Yue smiled happily.
"Since you have become so sly, I am sure you care bear some more training tomorrow little devil," thought Bing Yue as she played along with Xu Ming letting her think that she had been tricked.
"Ming'er, you have a long way to go until you can trick Bing'er," said a voice from behind Xu Ming completely surprising her.
Xu Ming completely let go of Bing Yue and immediately ran and hugged Xu Yue with a giant smile on her face.
Looking at the grown-up and young Xu Yue before her, it seemed as if Bing Yue had been hit by a lightning bolt, she sat down, merely looking at the two of them.
"Did Bing'er bully you?" asked Xu Yue as she took out a hairbrush, and began to brush Xu Ming's now long hair.
"No, mother taught me all sorts of techniques," said Xu Ming with a calm voice, surprising both Xu Yue and Bing Yue.
"Hm, Xu Yue, you have slacked off and let me do all the work, you haven't taught your daughter anything," said Bing Yue with a playful expression on her face.
Before Xu Yue could do anything Xu Ming shook her head, alarming the both of them.
"Mother taught me that If I find any beauty I like I should..." as Xu Ming continued talking Xu Yue's and Bing Yue's faces became a bit pale.
"Ming'er, you shouldn't do that," mumbled Bing Yue, slightly stuttering as she looked at Xu Yue with anger in her eyes.
"Then what should I do?" asked Xu Ming with a sly expression on her face, seeing that, Xu Yue smiled.
"Don't worry Ming'er, I will teach you," said Xu Yue as she got up and left with Xu Ming, after a few minutes, the color on Bing Yue's face returned as Xu Yue talked with her using her spiritual sense.
