Chapter 676: Chapter 352: Luo Cheng and the Domain List

Upon hearing Yin Li’s words, Luo Cheng smiled and said, “So it seems that awakening a Wasted Martial Soul might not be entirely a bad thing…”

“You sure are optimistic…”

Luo Cheng’s candid demeanor made Yin Li look at him with newfound respect, and she calmly said, “Misfortune and fortune are intertwined, and in this world, there is no absolute good or bad…”

At this point, Yin Li gazed at Luo Cheng, pausing in her speech.

She recalled the unexpected event that occurred at the Seven-Colored Spring.

It was precisely that incident that allowed her to ascend to the ranks of top Heavenly-level Great Powers.

All this perfectly reflected that saying.

Luo Cheng felt a little uneasy under Yin Li’s gaze, sensing a change in her expression, and tentatively asked:

“Sister Yin Li…”

Realizing her awkwardness, Yin Li immediately averted her gaze, staring at the surging great river, and said:

“Throughout history, those who awaken a Wasted Martial Soul rarely achieve great things. Few even break through to the Awakening Vein Realm, and those who ascend to become Great Power are as rare as phoenix feathers…”

“Fierce Cloud Sect won’t prioritize someone with a Wasted Martial Soul, nor will they see such a person as a threat. However, once you kill Yun Tianyan, everything changes. Even if only to establish dominance, Fierce Cloud Sect will not easily let you off. At that time, there may be endless troubles, so you must be mentally prepared…”

Yin Li patiently analyzed the situation for Luo Cheng, showing a patience unlike her usual self.

“Thank you, Sister Yin Li, for your concern.”

Luo Cheng took a deep breath and steadily said, “I won’t provoke trouble, but I also won’t fear any.”

Hearing this, an unusual brilliance flashed in Yin Li’s eyes. Even when facing Fierce Cloud Sect, she didn’t see even the slightest hint of retreat in Luo Cheng’s eyes.

This mindset is rare not only among the younger generation but also among many seasoned veterans.

“No wonder his Sword Intent has progressed so rapidly…”

Yin Li couldn’t help but admire him in her heart.

Strong Sword Dao Comprehension! Strong Soul Power! Strong mindset! Luo Cheng undoubtedly has the qualities of a top swordsman; his only shortcoming may be the Wasted Martial Soul.

“Let’s go! There’s still some distance to Yunquan City from here.”

With a wave of Yin Li’s hand, the wind and snow howled, and an Ice and Snow Giant Snake appeared.

Luo Cheng was surprised: “Aren’t you going back to Luoxia Sect, Senior Sister?”

“That’s right, but fortunately, it’s on the way, so I’ll send you to Yunquan City.”

Yin Li calmly responded, her figure leaping as she was the first to mount the Ice and Snow Giant Snake.

Luo Cheng couldn’t help but mumble to himself, “How is this on the way?”

Luoxia Sect is to the west, while Yunquan City is in the northwest.

Traveling first to Yunquan City and then returning to Luoxia Sect would be a big detour, undoubtedly requiring much more distance.

At this moment, Yin Li cast a cold glance: “Aren’t you coming up?”

“Yes.”

Luo Cheng licked his lips, putting away his grumblings, and climbed aboard.

Swish!

The Ice and Snow Giant Snake whipped up a cold wind and flew off through the air.

Above the sea of clouds, Yin Li stood at the forefront of the Ice and Snow Giant Snake’s head, her hair dancing wildly, her robes fluttering, an ethereal figure defying the fierce wind.

With nothing much to do, Luo Cheng sat cross-legged, took out the Blood Essence Yuan Pearl, and focused on breathing to heal his injuries.

The place was over ten thousand miles from Yunquan City, and at the speed of the Ice and Snow Giant Snake, they could reach their destination in a few hours at full speed.

Nevertheless, Yin Li slowed the pace, the Ice and Snow Giant Snake meandering within the clouds.

The next morning.

Luo Cheng opened his eyes, with a sharp gaze like lightning that silently parted the clouds ahead.

Clang!

The Flame Jade Sword was unsheathed, Luo Cheng exerted his Martial Soul and Essence Energy to the fullest, striking downward with a sword carrying immense explosive power.

Crack!

The power of this sword was unimaginable, like a bolt of thunder illuminating the entire sky!

The next moment!

With a thunderous roar, the sea of clouds ahead scattered like water, revealing a crack stretching several miles long. Under the fall of Sword Qi, the mountains below continuously crumbled, unable to withstand its might!

“So strong! I underestimated my own strength!”

Luo Cheng’s eyes lit up.

With the support of the Blood Essence Yuan Pearl, his vitality had fully recovered, and his injuries were more than ninety percent healed!

He only needed a bit more time to replenish his Essence Energy and Spirit. Content orıginally comes from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩

Now that his injuries had mostly healed, Luo Cheng felt an itch to test his strength.

The result took him by surprise.

This sword’s might was already comparable to the one he used to slay the burly middle-aged man!

Bear in mind, he hadn’t fully recovered yet, and aside from activating his Martial Soul and Sword Intent, he hadn’t even used the Xuanlong Technique!

Luo Cheng estimated that this sword had only about sixty to seventy percent of his peak combat power!

If possible, Luo Cheng would even like to have another match with that burly middle-aged man from the Blood Nether Sect.

To see how many moves it would take to cut him down head-on.

Ten moves?

Or just two or three?

“Looks like you’ve almost recovered.”

Yin Li’s voice came from the side.

“Yeah.” Luo Cheng regained his composure, sheathing his sword.

Yin Li glanced at the gigantic sword scar cleaving through the sea of clouds, nodding with approval:

“The power of this sword is impressive, enough to make an ordinary Earth Level Great Power avoid conflict. With this sword alone, you could dominate the Awakening Vein Realm of our Great Yue Dynasty; no one within the Three Great Sects’ Inner Sect could rival you. Even within the entire Yunlan Domain Group, you wouldn’t be lacking, having the qualification to ascend the Domain List, with a respectable ranking.”

Domain List!

Luo Cheng was moved, unable to hold back from asking, “Sister Yin Li, how high do you think I could rank on the Domain List for the Awakening Vein Realm?”

Yin Li pondered for a moment and said, “If you’re lucky, probably around the top ten.”

“Around the top ten?”

Luo Cheng frowned.

Although he hadn’t displayed his peak combat power, this sword was enough to rival an Earth Level Great Power. He thought a spot in the top ten was a certainty, perhaps even a higher ranking, but didn’t expect it to only be around ten, and only with good luck.

Doesn’t this mean that even with his peak combat power, it would be very difficult to claim the first spot on the Domain List?

“What, you’re not satisfied?”

Noticing Luo Cheng’s expression, Yin Li lightly shook her head, thinking he might not be familiar with the Domain List, and said:

“Across the Yunlan Domain Group, with dozens of countries, the number of Awakening Vein Realm experts under twenty is countless, yet only a hundred can make the Domain List. The level of difficulty here is self-evident.”

“Yun Tianyan of Fierce Cloud Sect, with his great fame, managed only to snatch the one hundred and second spot and failed to enter the Domain List. This has been the most impressive achievement for our Three Great Sects in recent years.”

“If you can make the Domain List, even if it’s the hundredth spot, that alone will cause a sensation throughout the Great Yue Dynasty, bringing immense honor and benefits.”

“If you break into the top ten, you’ll become a meritorious figure of the Xuanyuan Sect, and from then on, your status within the Xuanyuan Sect will undergo a dramatic change. Being on par with the Ten Great True Disciples would be nothing.”

Luo Cheng exclaimed, “Is it really that exaggerated?”

“Reality is even more dramatic than that. Ascending the Domain List not only proves your strength, bringing honor and fame but also provides substantial wealth for both your Sect and yourself. Moreover, it’s said to involve an ancient sect’s secret; ascending the Domain List can influence one’s destiny, especially the top ten having the greatest impact…”
