Chapter 1027: The Emerald Cloud Path

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The group was struck by a sudden realization, and it all began to make sense.

“I must mention, however, that using the medicinal pill as an external force has come to the maximum end after this enhancement. One must not consume any more divine medicine or magical herbs after this. All of us from the Residence of Nine Supremes must not increase our cultivation base through this method four at least the next ten years. Each one of you must treat this seriously. It’s not merely a warning or a precaution; this is absolutely forbidden.”

“Everyone must fulfill the ten-year abstinence; it would be best to eliminate the negative impact quickly from using the medicinal pill to promote your cultivation skill! The only way to wholly remove it is to cultivate and do battle!”

Yun Yang wore a serious expression. “Therefore, do not devour or simply take in any heaven and earth treasures you see in the future… If your meridians are unable to cope and it causes harm, it’ll be an immense regret as your cultivation journey will be short-lived. You must return to the sect and ask your elders before using it with caution.”

“Yes.” The top ten disciples agreed in unison.

All ten of them looked utterly thrilled.

The Emerald Cloud Pill! One could already know from its name that the pill must signify a smooth and swift rise to heaven, like stepping on the Emerald Cloud Path.

What else could feel like skyrocketing to heaven by riding the Emerald Cloud Path if not the headway of stepping across a full level at one go?

“Ten of you, take a meditation room each later and calm yourself down to adjust your breathing and pulses. Commit to being physically and psychologically undisturbed as much as you can.”

“Ten of you, watch the sequence of the medicinal pills consumption. Use your mystical Qi to catalyze and guide the medicinal strength, lead them and guard them. Whatever issue that arises during the process, do not stop! Remember, not for any problem at all! This is the most crucial point!”

“Understood.” Shi Wuchen and friends chorused. Like their disciples, they were practically glowing with excitement.

Right on cue, Dong Qitian’s voice rang in Yun Yang’s ears. “Leader Yun, this old man is suggesting to you once more… do consider it carefully. Even if you insist on the consumption, it’s better to go one by one and not all ten together. The person guiding and sorting the potency could be me as well.”

Dong Qitian had made himself very clear and was, once again, showing kindness.

The risk involved was too high. It was basically one man killed per consumption.

It would be only one person lost with the worst outcome if they were to go one by one; the rest of them had the choice to choose. Doing it all together made it highly probable that all ten would die together with an orchestrated meridian explosion… Then, the casualties would number all ten men! Their ten most elite disciples at that.

How could this not feel devastating?

Moreover, Dong Qitian had volunteered to steer the medicinal potency. He was being the kindest he could possibly be. Even when Shi Wuchen and others were the children’s masters, their cultivation base, experience, and knowledge were a long way from Dong Qitian’s. There was no doubt that the success rate would be raised if Dong Qitian helped in addition to his ability for an immediate rescue if there were to be a mishap, given his familiarity with the Emerald Cloud Pill’s strength and effect – it could avoid the most unwanted crises!

In spite of this, Yun Yang replied without hesitation, “No need to complicate it. This will do. It’s only taking some meds. No need to trouble Elder Dong.”

Flapping his sleeves angrily, Dong Qitian walked out and muttered in fury, “Bastard child! Cold-blooded creature! I’ll see how you handle it as a leader when shit happens later!”

“Let’s begin,” said Yun Yang with a chuckle.

Ren Qingkuang had a slight frown as he asked, “Lead Supreme, will there be any danger, given how strong the Emerald Cloud Pill is? Furthermore, simultaneous intake with the other four assisting medicines? Do we need to perform any preparations?”

Yun Yang’s eyes were half-lidded as he replied faintly, “The journey of cultivation is never an easy one. What method of enhancement is entirely safe? The way of a martial artist is going forward amidst crises. Being afraid can never lead one to push through brambles and thistle to the way of Dao.”

The Demiurge-Flawed Ten mused but the ten disciples were incredibly motivated by their leader’s words.

“Leader Senior Uncle is right. The way of martial arts should be by moving forward on a perilous road! It’s impossible to not go through some hardships if one wants to be powerful. This disciple is willing to accept any risk and sufferings!”

Sun Mingxiu looked determined, as were the other disciples.

Lan Ruojun quietly pursed his lips, thinking, “Bunch of gullible children…”

“Let’s start.”

Yun Yang sucked in a deep breath. “The competition of the Celestial Luck Banner is starting soon. The victory of our residence depends on today’s actions. If all of you advance successfully, we’ll have the competence to do battle. If not… we can only wait for our next chance three years later. During these three years, when the Celestial Luck Banner bearing sects grow, we can only stand still here, as their spiritual Qi is thicker than what we have…”

“This is your opportunity to change your destiny.”

“Work hard, children.”

The ten children entered the meditation room following the Demiurge-Flawed Ten. All of them looked somber and serious.

Dong Qitian who had left in anger heaved a long sigh.

Streams of mystical Qi tinged with various auras spread in the Central Peak’s hall instantly and gradually intensified.

Shi Wuchen and colleagues dared not take it lightly. Each of them exerted their best, quietly observing their disciples’ state. These children had just begun their cultivation journey; they had no idea what this breakthrough would mean and to what extent the risk involved would go to. The adults, however, were fully aware.

This was a one-time step across a full level! It was really skyrocketing on an Emerald Cloud straight to the heavens! If it were a step to heaven, how could there not be risks?

This was a nearly fatal test!

Shi Wuchen and others were well aware of the peril their disciples had to bear in this breakthrough, thus the nerves within them were tightly wound.

At this moment, Shi Wuchen’s sword heart was trembling. One must know that his cultivation method was the emotionless sword heart, the sword core that held no feelings. However, it could not help quivering now that it was faced with disciples whom he had poured his heart and sweat into.

‘How many among you could push through ultimately?’

‘How many of you will fall in this instant, due to this breakthrough!’

Perhaps the ten disciples knew that this enhancement was significant for they had swiftly entered a state of meditation and adjusted themselves with mystical Qi to ensure they were in an optimum condition to handle any changes that were within their capacity.

It had been only a while but a white fog slowly rose around the top ten disciples and formed a thick cloud above everyone’s head.

Yun Yang seated himself in the leader’s throne, looking nonchalant but his divine sense and concentration had long engulfed the whole hall. Everything big or small was in his grasp. He was closely watching each disciple’s cultivation state; there was no missing even a single strand of hair.

Immediately, a faint voice rang out, “The Emerald Cloud Path, the first step.”
