Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Xia Liu understood Sage Qingjue and wanted to obtain something from him.

With just a bit of goodwill, that was far from enough.

However, Xia Liu might have a chance, but that depends on his own fate.

"Sage Qingjue has six chief disciples, known within the realm as the Six Pillars of Shu Mountain. Their cultivation is all at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation. To meet Qingjue, you not only have to pass numerous trials, but also overcome the Six Pillars of Shu Mountain."

"The Six Pillars of Shu Mountain!"

"Their cultivation is all at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation!"

"Isn't that terrifying!"

Ye Xuan and the others were all shocked. With a cultivator at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation, Xia Liu might barely cope.

But he was facing six of them!

Six whole cultivators at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation, they were no simple Innate Warriors.

But cultivators!

"If separated, young brother Xia Liu could certainly defeat them, but they advance and retreat as one. The Sword Array of the Six Pillars of Shu Mountain shakes the realm, and not even high-rank Qi Cultivation cultivators can pass through it."

Ye Wuya once experienced the Sword Array of the Six Pillars.

At that time, their cultivation was just at the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation, and he, with his cultivation at the twelfth layer, went through the formation without much pressure.

But now, the Six Pillars' cultivation has reached the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation!

Accordingly, the power of the Sword Array of the Six Pillars will greatly increase.

Moreover, Xia Liu's current cultivation is only at the peak of the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation. Even if his physical body reaches the eighth layer, the concentration of Spiritual Energy is still at the seventh layer, which is very disadvantageous for breaking through the formation.

"Sword Array of the Six Pillars!"

Xia Liu knew how formidable formations could be, and this combined attack formation by six cultivators at the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation was even more terrifying.

"It's okay, I'll tell you the method to break this Sword Array of the Six Pillars later. If you can maintain the peak of the eighth layer or reach the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation, breaking the Sword Array of the Six Pillars is a matter of minutes."

Ye Wuya realized he might have startled Xia Liu, and quickly eased his emotions.

"Grandfather, is this really possible?"

Ye Xuan looked worried. Xia Liu is only at the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation now; how could he possibly leap to the ninth layer in just two months!

"Isn't this a bit forced, the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation..."

"Xia Liu, can you reach it?"

Guo Man silently pondered in her heart. The sweat Xia Liu had shed for her far exceeded what was apparent on the surface.

She couldn't bear it, wanted to speak out to stop Xia Liu.

But the determined figure in front of her halted all her thoughts, the words stuck in her throat.

He was humbly asking Ye Wuya for advice on how to break the Sword Array of the Six Pillars, completely disregarding the level of cultivation required to do so.

That level was likely beyond his reach.

After some time, Xia Liu greatly understood, having been told the method to break the Sword Array of the Six Pillars and the path to the Shu Mountain Sect by Ye Wuya.

"Thank you, Senior Ye, for your help today. Xia Liu is deeply grateful!"

"Haha, what help is this? It all still depends on you."

Ye Wuya chuckled kindly. He was merely sharing what he knew, not genuinely helping Xia Liu in the true sense.

To acquire a spell suitable for cultivating with an Earth Spirit Vein, it still depends on his individual fate.

This is beyond doubt.

"No matter what, if Senior Ye ever needs Xia Liu in the future, I will never decline."

"Ah, young brother, such promises should not be made lightly. You are destined for greatness, likely to achieve unprecedented accomplishments."

"Senior Ye, you flatter me."

Xia Liu felt a bit embarrassed. He dared not utter such words.

Who knows what might happen the next second? Perhaps he might fall, or other things could occur.

"Alright, you've exhausted yourself enough today. Go back and recuperate for half a month, then set off for Lingfeng City. I look forward to hearing good news from you at Shu Mountain."

Ye Wuya turned and entered the straw hut, having stood long enough, he felt tired and didn't want to talk further.

"Take care, Senior Ye. Once I acquire the cultivation technique, I will visit you again."

Xia Liu clasped his hands in respect towards the straw hut.

If not for Ye Wuya today, he wouldn't have obtained this lead on Shu Mountain.

After obtaining the cultivation technique, he would return here with Guo Man to visit their benefactor.

"It's up to you. When you see Sage Qingjue, if possible, try not to mention me. Mentioning your Honored Master's name might be useful."

"Alright, Senior Ye, we take our leave now..."

Xia Liu replied and then left with his people.

Since Ye Wuya had opted to send them off, he naturally had to abide by the senior's wishes.

After Xia Liu and the others disappeared, Ye Wuya emerged from the straw hut.

Gazing at the spot where Xia Liu vanished, he murmured, "You're called Xia Liu, disciple of Venerable Yun Fan. Your future achievements are sure to be unparalleled, and as for your Honored Master, Venerable Yun Fan, he's not one to fall so easily..."

Outside the bamboo forest.

Countless people were waiting for Xia Liu.

Having been briefed by Ye Hai, they all knew that a supreme powerhouse resided deep within the Bamboo Sea.

That powerhouse was the fundamental support of the Ye Family and a symbol of the family's strength over the years.

The world had countless strong individuals, and the Ye Family held a significant position, all thanks to Ye Wuya.

As they saw Xia Liu and the group emerge from the Bamboo Sea, countless eyes turned their way.

"Look! Chief Xia is out!"

"Chief Xia must have ventured in this time to meet the esteemed senior!"

"Tsk tsk! Chief Xia's way of breaking through the array is surely unprecedented in our family's history!"

"Being able to crush those at the late stage of the Innate Realm, Chief Xia is truly a model for the younger generation!"

...

Amidst numerous fervent discussions, Xia Liu approached Ye Hai: "Old Master Ye, you're still here."

"Haha, when I heard you were coming to break the array, I knew you must be seeking the senior. How did it go?"

Ye Hai chuckled heartily. Xia Liu's first visit to the Ye Family had already caused such a stir, truly extraordinary indeed.

"Senior Ye was very approachable and provided me with a lot of valuable help. In some time, I will visit again."

"As long as you gained something, that's good, that's good..."

Ye Hai nodded, relieved that Xia Liu didn't leave empty-handed.

Xia Liu was indeed a rising star of Huaxia; future accomplishments were bound to be extraordinary. Befriending such a person was truly a blessing for the Ye Family!

"Oh, you used quite some of your strength earlier. Come, let's go back together, and let me treat you well."

"Sure, let's go."

Of course, Xia Liu couldn't leave immediately. Even if anxious, he must see through the formalities.

"Chief Xia, you have passed through the Bamboo Sea Sword Array. Before you leave, please leave your name on the stele."

Just as Xia Liu was about to depart, Ye Yuan suddenly called out to him.

This was a tradition before the Bamboo Sea Sword Array of the Ye Family, to record a name so future generations know there was once a great figure who used powerful means to break through the array.

"Okay, that request can be fulfilled."

Xia Liu nodded; Ye Yuan might have had some plans before, but now he absolutely wouldn't anymore, and certainly wouldn't plot against him in the future...
