Chapter 329: The Sword Is Like A Cyan Rainbow, Capable Of Severing The Firmament (I)
"Hunting yaos and demons? Are yaos and demons causing trouble outside Wuling City?" Lin Zheyu asked, sounding somewhat puzzled.
Outside Wuling City, the City Guard was stationed in force. The moment any yao or demon appeared, the City Guard would hunt it down and exterminate it.
"Yes. Those yao martial artists from the Yao Heaven Palace somehow lured powerful yaos from who knows where. They have been attacking villages and markets gathered outside the city. Over the past month, many people have died," Liu Gang said respectfully.
Since his Initiation, Lin Zheyu had devoted himself entirely to training within the sect, almost completely ignoring matters beyond its gates, and knew very little about the current turmoil in Wuling City. He only knew that Sect Master Huang Baizhong frequently went out to hunt down the yao martial artists of the Yao Heaven Palace and was rarely present within the sect. Over the past three months, he had met Huang Baizhong only a few times, and whenever he encountered problems in martial cultivation, he sought guidance from Senior Sister Guo Wenzi.
"So that is how it is. I hope the sect master and the others can wipe out the people of the Yao Heaven Palace as soon as possible," Lin Zheyu said.
He pondered for a moment, then continued, "Help me deliver a challenge letter to Fan Qingxue. I will go challenge her tomorrow."
"Yes, Martial Uncle," Liu Gang replied respectfully.
Watching Lin Zheyu's retreating figure, his heart was filled with shock. His martial uncle was actually going to challenge Fan Qingxue. One had to know that Fan Qingxue was a powerhouse ranked seventy-eight on the Hidden Dragon List. His martial uncle was truly incredible.

After defeating Xu Kun, who had come to challenge him, Lin Zheyu continued his previous cultivation. Over several days, he gradually grasped some of the essentials of the Sacred Evolution Spirit Nuturing Art. Although it was difficult, he found it much easier to cultivate than others due to his powerful control over essence, qi, and spirit. The techniques he had cultivated before had not been practiced in vain. Although they did not greatly enhance his strength, they improved his control and understanding of his body, making it easier for him to pick up other techniques.
In the afternoon, Huang Youwei came bustling noisily into Lin Zheyu's courtyard and asked excitedly, "Martial Uncle, Martial Uncle! I heard you are going to challenge Fan Qingxue. Is that true?"
Lin Zheyu opened his eyes helplessly and shot him a glare. This fellow really had no sense. Could he not see that he was cultivating? Still, Lin Zheyu was about to finish anyway and needed some rest. Continuously grinding away at the Sacred Evolution Spirit Nurturing Art could easily lead one into a dead end. Cultivation, in reality, was different from using Origin Force to train within the consciousness space.
