"This..."
After taking a few steps back, Luolan Xue stabilized her body and, ignoring her injuries, looked in shock at the martial arts book in Yin Luoli's hands.
"This is the martial intent!"
At the thought of this, Luolan Xue was taken aback.
What was going on? She had actually seen martial intent in a painting book sold by a mortal? If it weren't for the injuries in her body constantly reminding her, she would have thought she was dreaming.
Martial intent.
Something that even his master, a martial spirit powerhouse, couldn't comprehend. Legend has it that only the existence of a martial emperor level could comprehend martial intent.
She could identify it as martial intent, thanks to her master, Qing Shan Lao Zu, who had granted her a small taste of it when she inherited the sect's legacy. However, the martial intent she had experienced was nothing compared to what was emanating from the book in her hand; it was like comparing a firefly's faint glow to a blazing Inferno.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Yin Luoli looked at Luolan Xue who was spitting blood and asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Can you let me see the book in your hand?" Luolan Xue's eyes were fixed on the book at the moment, urgently asking.
"Of course, you can. This book is really interesting," Yin Luoli extended her hand.
Luolan Xue took the martial arts book solemnly but found something and immediately looked at Yin Luoli in shock.
"Luoli, you... you..."
Luolan Xue's eyes widened, her pupils dilated in shock, and her heart began to race as she struggled to believe what she was seeing. Her body trembled with a mix of excitement and fear, as the truth of the situation slowly sank in.
"What's wrong with me, sister?" Yin Luoli blinked her big Watery eyes and asked.
"Luolan Xue exclaimed in disbelief, "How is it possible? Your realm... how could it have improved so much? Have you broken through to the fifth level so quickly?"
When she left the mountain, she had only checked Yin Luoli's realm and found that she was only a first-level warrior. But now...
A fifth-level warrior!
"Ah?"
Yin Luoli also sensed her realm.
"It's true. I am a prodigy," Yin Luoli said happily after discovering that her realm had really improved.
But Luolan Xue took a deep breath.
Yin Luoli's talent was good, but it was impossible to reach this level, let alone break through to the fifth level in such a short time.
The only reason was...
She looked at the martial arts book in her hand!
At this moment, she felt her heart racing and found it difficult to calm down.
With a serious expression on her pretty face, she steadied her trembling jade hand, took a deep breath, and eagerly opened the martial arts book again.
"Tai Chi Quan!"
What came into her view were these three characters.
The handwriting appears rough and curved at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it reveals a powerful and vigorous style.
With just three characters, Luolan Xue was deeply captivated. To her, it felt like a whole new world had emerged.
A mysterious illustration, and she was at the center of it. As she looked up, she saw a vast starry sky with stars forming a peculiar design.
Without thinking, she turned to the next page. As she gazed at the figures in the diagram, they seemed to come to life before her eyes. Suddenly, she noticed a vast palm print gently pushing towards them, causing her pupils to dilate in surprise."
Her breathing became rapid, and beads of sweat dripped down her forehead.
At this moment, she felt like a small boat in a storm, on the verge of capsizing in this vast land. So she hurriedly closed the martial arts book in her hand and stood in place, breathing heavily.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Yin Luoli quickly grabbed Luolan Xue's arm and asked with concern.
Luolan Xue's jaw dropped as she stared at her hands in disbelief. It was as if she had awakened from a dream, only to find that her reality had completely changed. After taking a moment to process what had just happened, she realized with a mix of shock and excitement that she had broken through from the Ninth Rank Martial Master to the Great Martial Master realm. Her heart raced as she struggled to come to terms with this newfound power, wondering what other abilities she might now possess. She was stunned, to say the least...
The gap between a Martial Master and a Great Martial Master was already a huge chasm for cultivators. Many people remained stuck in the Ninth Rank for their entire lives. Although she was confident in her talent, she thought it would take her at least a year to break through.
But now, she had broken through in less than the time it took to make a cup of tea.
If news of their breakthrough were to spread, it would likely cause a stir throughout the Southern region!
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and held the martial arts book tightly as if it were a treasure.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Yin Luoli looked at the abnormal expression of Luo Lanxue, becoming increasingly worried.
"My sister has always been very diligent and committed to her cultivation practice, with high standards for herself. She began to wonder if her sister's excessive anxiety and anger could have led to QI deviation. she thought.
"Luoli!" Finally, Luo Lanxue regained her composure and grabbed Yin Luoli's arm, saying seriously, "Promise me that you won't reveal a single word about this book."
"Why?" Yin Luoli blinked her big eyes and asked in confusion.
"You don't need to ask so many questions. You just need to know that this book...may be the biggest opportunity of your life, and it may also be related to the life and death of our Qingshan Sect," Luo Lanxue said solemnly.
"What?" Yin Luoli was a little overwhelmed by this information.
"Also, I need to bring this book back to our sect leader as soon as possible," Luo Lanxue said.
"Okay," Yin Luoli scratched her head. She hadn't finished reading the book yet, and although she was reluctant, her sister's expression seemed serious.
Moreover, she couldn't figure out why this book would be the biggest opportunity of her life and also related to the life and death of the Qingshan Sect.
Luo Lanxue pulled Yin Luoli and headed towards their sect.
In retrospect...
That extraordinary young man sitting on the lounge chair was not an ordinary person at all!
He must be an unparalleled master, whose realm had long surpassed that of ordinary people, and had come to this small city to enjoy the mortal world.
