Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1767 How long has it taken you to cultivate to this point?

"Then, I was unable to break through, and now I've become a laughing stock in the sect!" Feng Jian said calmly. "My wife's death has become a deep obsession in my heart. No matter what I do, I can't get over it. It has become a demon in my heart! No matter how hard I try, it has become an obstacle I can't overcome!"

Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Peak Saint, right? When I reach the peak of Sainthood, I will definitely seek justice for you!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Feng Jian's eyes.

“Of course!” Ye Qing said, “I would prefer that you be the one who personally seeks justice. You have the Qilin Divine Bone, and you have unique characteristics. If you reach that level yourself, it would be even better to take revenge personally!”

"I cannot break through to the Saint level!" Feng Jian said.

“When you yourself believe you can’t break through, then all I can say is…” Ye Qing silently shook his head and said, “Let’s just leave it at that. How much longer can you live?”

“The last Heavenly Tribulation was two hundred years ago. If nothing unexpected happens, I have about eight hundred years left,” Feng Jian said.

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Alright, I will definitely avenge you within eight hundred years!"

"Ah!" Feng Jian stared at Ye Qing in astonishment and said, "Do you think you can break through to the peak of the Saint realm in eight hundred years?"

"Why not?" Ye Qing asked.

Feng Jian frowned and said, "I feel that you don't even understand some common sense. There are such people who have risen from Venerable to the peak of Saint in eight hundred years, but each of them is a top power in this Tianxi Continent, and none of them are without the appearance of an Emperor!"

"Why do you think I lack the qualities of an emperor?" Ye Qing said, "Anyway, I've agreed to your request. Tell me about the situation here!"

Feng Jian nodded, then asked thoughtfully, "If I may ask again, how long did it take you to reach the peak of the Venerable realm?"

Ye Qing thought for a moment and said, "It should be less than a hundred years, maybe seventy or eighty? I can't remember exactly how long it has been, sometimes I really don't have a sense of time!"

Feng Jian: "..."

He looked at Ye Qing strangely, then silently shook his head, thinking that Ye Qing was bragging.

Reaching the peak of the Venerable realm in less than a century—how is that possible? Even the supreme beings on the Tianxi Continent couldn't achieve such speed.

Ye Qing was too lazy to explain!

Feng Jian continued, "This place is the Azure Sky World. In the Azure Sky World, the pollution from the Holy Court Ruins can be isolated. Within the Innate Dao Sect, anyone whose cultivation has reached the peak of the Venerable level will be sent here, firstly to use the pressure here to cultivate, and secondly to help the sect mine. Since you are here, you naturally know that there are benefits in these minerals."

“I don’t associate with other people much. If you impersonate me, the risk of being exposed shouldn’t be very high. The only people I’m familiar with are Lian Ping’an and Chen Yuxue!” Feng Jian said.

Lian Ping'an is my best friend. His talent is quite ordinary. I took care of him in the early years, which is why he was able to cultivate to the peak of the Venerable realm!

As for Chen Yuxue, she is an alchemist in the sect, only one step away from becoming a saint. In fact, her status in the sect is no less than that of an elder.

My daily life consists of mining. After reaching my physical limit, I return to cultivate and then go out mining again. Usually, I mine with Lian Ping'an. The sect doesn't have many requirements for this. When we go out, we usually take on missions through the mission hall and then randomly join a team led by a saint! Then we go into the mine, and I can usually last for about two hours inside.

The only thing to be careful about is that Elder Yun is a half-step Great Emperor at the peak of Sainthood. He is also the person with the highest status in the Dao Alliance here. He is in charge of the formation set up by the Dao Alliance. It is said that he can sense every little thing happening in the Holy Court headquarters within the nine rings.

Feng Jian said, "He can also cleanse his body using the formation. Only after his body is cleansed can he enter the mine; otherwise, the pressure he will endure will not change!"

Ye Qing nodded and said, "I see!"

"You just need to be careful of him. He might notice something amiss when he's washing himself!" Feng Jian said. "As long as you keep quiet, no one should suspect you!"

“That’s right!” Just then, Feng Jian spoke up: “Actually… you can continue to hide and use my identity to train yourself.”

"I don't want to be discovered sometime and then get hacked to death!" Ye Qing said with a sneer. "Like I said, if you honestly let me get through this trouble, I will naturally give you a way out. I estimate that after tomorrow or the day after, I will go back to the mine. After I get rid of them, I will let you out."

Feng Jian was silent for a moment before saying, "Alright!"

After chatting with him for a while, Ye Qing came out early, about three hours later.

He also gained a general understanding of the people from the Dao Alliance here!

A large number of saints from the Dao Alliance are in this place, with nearly twenty saintly experts stationed here. The strongest is Elder Yun, who is at the level of a half-step Great Emperor. He is much stronger than many saintly experts. Relying on the formation here, even a Great Emperor can be delayed for a period of time.

In addition, there are eighteen Saint-level experts, and nearly three hundred Venerable-level experts in total!

These people come from various sects within the Dao Alliance!

Ye Qing sighed inwardly for a moment.

This Tianxi Continent is indeed powerful. A second-rate power has such a scale. And this is not even the full strength of the Dao Alliance.

If the entire Dao Alliance were to travel to the universe now, even the Heavenly Court would likely be helpless against them for a time.

No wonder Liu Qing and the others could only sneak around and steal some ore!

Ye Qing had been sitting in the room for a short while when Chen Yuxue knocked on the door and asked, "Feng Jian, are you awake?"

Ye Qing pushed open the door to the room. He looked at Chen Yuxue, who smiled at Feng Jian and said, "The food is ready. Let's go eat!"

Ye Qing nodded, and then the two went to the restaurant on the second floor!

Lian Ping'an was already sitting there, looking at the food on the table with a smile. He said, "Xiao Xue, your medicinal cuisine is too good! Feng Jian is heartless. You don't need to hang yourself on him. How about we become Daoist partners? I promise I will treat you very well."

Chen Yuxue glared at him and said, "Shut up!"

Then she smiled at Feng Jian and said, "Let's sit down and eat, don't listen to this guy."
