After a brief discussion, it was decided that Hu Mei'er and Hu Jiao'er, known as the Hu Sisters, would be the first to undergo a breakthrough.
This decision was made to ensure that the available energy around the Inheritance Cave could be utilized as efficiently as possible before it was Xia Ning Chang and Su Yan's turn.
Shen Xiang, acting as the main supporter, ensured that all preparations went smoothly. He had prepared Spirit Crystals, Brilliant Flame Liquid, and Soul Cleansing Dew to aid them in their breakthrough process.
As the two sisters sat cross-legged in the middle of the hall, Shen Xiang, Su Yan, and Xia Ning Chang stepped back to give them space. Meanwhile, the Hu Sisters began cultivating the Twin Divine Art, a unique inheritance they had received from the Inheritance Cave.
The Breakthrough Begins
With a calm demeanor, Hu Mei'er started absorbing the Yang Qi stored within her body. The surrounding aura began to change as her cultivation advanced rapidly.
True Element Realm Stage 6...
True Element Realm Stage 7...
True Element Realm Stage 8...
True Element Realm Stage 9...
When Hu Mei'er reached the ninth stage of the True Element Realm, she paused her absorption of Yang Qi to consolidate her cultivation.
Hu Mei'er and Hu Jiao'er then drank the Brilliant Flame Liquid given by Shen Xiang, refining the purity of their True Qi, and consumed the Soul Cleansing Dew to strengthen their Spiritual Energy after opening their Sea of Consciousness.
They performed every movement simultaneously, as if they were one person.
Xia Ning Chang, who was observing the process, tried to reassure Su Yan, who looked concerned about the Hu Sisters' rapid progress.
"Don't worry, Sister Su. Brother Shen's Yang Qi is incredibly pure. Not only is it safe, but it also provides immense benefits to women," Xia Ning Chang said softly, gently holding Su Yan's hand.
Shen Xiang, standing not far from them, looked up at the sky, which was beginning to change. "They're about to break through," he said, pointing at the dark clouds gathering above the building.
The Heavenly Baptism
Thick black clouds began to gather, and the sound of thunder rumbled. The Heavenly Baptism, a sign of a major breakthrough, had arrived.
Hu Mei'er, having reached the critical point, absorbed the remaining Yang Qi in her body before fully breaking through.
Rumble...
Rumble...
Rumble...
Lightning bolts continuously struck Hu Mei'er and Hu Jiao'er as they endured the tribulation with all their strength. Some burn marks appeared on their bodies, but they healed instantly due to the powerful Life Energy contained within their Yang Qi.
Suddenly, an intense spiritual pressure spread throughout the room, leaving Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang in awe.
Shen Xiang, who had been well-prepared, immediately shattered 10,000 Spirit Crystals to intensify the surrounding World Energy.
Hu Mei'er and Hu Jiao'er, cultivating the Twin Divine Art, successfully broke through to the First Stage of the Immortal Ascension Realm simultaneously.
Their auras grew even stronger, radiating a mental pressure almost equal to that of a peak Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator.
"Amazing," Su Yan murmured in admiration.
The Second Breakthrough
However, the process was not yet complete. Now, it was Hu Jiao'er's turn to absorb the remaining Yang Qi within her body.
The World Energy around them was drawn into their bodies as Hu Jiao'er's cultivation advanced rapidly.
Immortal Ascension Realm Stage 2...
Immortal Ascension Realm Stage 3...
Immortal Ascension Realm Stage 4...
Immortal Ascension Realm Stage 5...
Immortal Ascension Realm Stage 6...
By the time Hu Jiao'er reached the sixth stage of the Immortal Ascension Realm, the Yang Qi within her body was fully depleted. The two sisters then entered a consolidation phase, stabilizing and controlling their newfound power.
The Hu Sisters' Success
Their breakthrough process lasted for an entire day. Once the fluctuations in their energy settled, Hu Mei'er and Hu Jiao'er slowly opened their eyes, exchanged glances, and smiled.
They stood up and walked toward Shen Xiang.
"Mei'er, Jiao'er, congratulations on your breakthrough," Shen Xiang said, embracing both girls with pride.
Without hesitation, the Hu Sisters gave Shen Xiang a passionate kiss as a sign of their affection.
Xia Ning Chang and Su Yan immediately approached to offer their congratulations, hugging the Hu Sisters one after another.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Sisters," Xia Ning Chang said with a bright smile.
"Thank you," Hu Mei'er replied, her eyes sparkling. "We're fortunate to have you all as our sisters."
Shen Xiang looked at the women surrounding him with joy. "Alright, Ning Chang, it's your turn now."
Xia Ning Chang simply nodded. The time had come for her to take the next big step, supported by the trust and strength they had built together.
