Chapter 657: Winds and Clouds Change

Chapter 657: Winds and Clouds Change

Currently, Zhang Yuhe's cultivation had already advanced to Void God Realm Perfection.

He had also comprehended the Wave Dao Rule, and even elevated the power of the rule to the Realm of Minor Achievement.

Breaking through to the True God Realm completely had no obstacles left.

After advancing his cultivation to Perfection,

just like before, Zhang Yuhe did not feel the existence of a Bottleneck.

In other words,

as long as he accumulated enough Divine Power Qi, he could break through to the True God Realm.

"After adjusting my state, I will begin the Breakthrough."

Thinking of this,

Zhang Yuhe turned around and glanced at the Enlightenment Tree behind him.

At this moment, wisps of Divine Power Qi were slowly converging toward the Enlightenment Tree.

Seeing this situation,

a faint smile couldn't help but surface on Zhang Yuhe's face.

Wu Yiyi was still cultivating.

That's somewhat rare, ah.

…

A solitary leaf of a boat slowly drifted across the lake surface.

Zhang Yuhe emptied his mind and spirit, lying quietly on the wooden boat.

Ever since joining Donghua Palace,

he had spent almost all of his time in cultivation.

For the entire sixty million years, his nerves had constantly been in a tense state.

Under this kind of state,

if he were to attempt a Breakthrough to the True God Realm, he was afraid he might encounter accidents.

Although he was fully prepared and did not feel any Bottlenecks,

for a Cultivator to break through a major Realm was by no means a small matter.

Let alone the fact that he was breaking through to the True God Realm.

Even back when he was in Yu Fantian, every time he broke through a major Realm,

he needed to properly adjust his state before doing so.

Otherwise,

who knew if any accidents might happen.

Examples of Cultivators overturning in their Breakthroughs were everywhere.

Zhang Yuhe certainly did not want to be used as a negative example by others and passed down through history.

A gentle breeze swept past, and the azure waves rippled.

The wooden boat drifted with the wind.

Zhang Yuhe emptied his mind and forgot everything.

He no longer thought about matters of cultivation, nor did he consider the Great Dao Rules.

He just lay there quietly,

as if everything in this world had nothing to do with him.

…

Yitian Manor.

The small purple tree swayed gently.

Wu Yiyi materialized and rose up.

Seeing that Zhang Yuhe's figure was not on the cultivation platform,

she couldn't help but be greatly surprised.

"Eh, where is he?"

Wu Yiyi quickly soared into the air, her gaze sweeping across the surroundings.

Soon, she saw a drifting wooden boat on the distant lake surface.

Puchi…

Looking at Zhang Yuhe lying on the wooden boat,

Wu Yiyi couldn't help but chuckle.

She smiled and muttered to herself,

"So you get tired too, huh."

"I thought a cultivation maniac like you would never feel tired."

Gazing afar at the wooden boat on the lake,

Wu Yiyi did not go over to disturb him, but instead quietly floated above Yitian Manor.

Just watching quietly like this.

Watching that solitary boat on the distant lake surface,

watching that unique young gentleman on the wooden boat,

she couldn't help becoming somewhat infatuated.

…

Time slowly elapsed.

Not knowing how long had passed,

Zhang Yuhe awoke from his deep sleep.

At this moment, he felt that his mental state was unprecedentedly full.

Zhang Yuhe let out a long whistle.

The sound reverberated endlessly across the lake surface, rapidly transmitting into the distance.

"It is also time to begin breaking through to the True God Realm."

After a long while,

Zhang Yuhe soared into the air and quickly returned to Yitian Manor.

Seeing Wu Yiyi floating in the upper airspace, his brows furrowed slightly.

It was one thing that Wu Yiyi wasn't cultivating, but she actually hadn't gone to play around in the surroundings.

What was she doing standing there like a fool?

And it seemed like she was even giggling foolishly over there.

Could it be that she had developed a Heart Demon after cultivating for too long?

Thinking of this,

Zhang Yuhe called out in a soft voice,

"Yi Yi, what are you doing?"

Hearing Zhang Yuhe call her,

Wu Yiyi suddenly snapped back to her senses.

Her face flushed slightly, and she gave a cute huff, saying,

"Hmph, this young lady is standing here admiring the scenery, is that not allowed?"

After saying these words,

her figure quickly dissipated, slowly blending into the Enlightenment Tree.

Seeing this situation,

Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but smile gently.

She was truly still a child.

…

After quite a while,

Zhang Yuhe took a deep breath.

He walked onto the cultivation platform and slowly sat cross-legged.

Having adjusted his state for so long,

it was time for him to break through as well.

As long as he successfully advanced to the True God Realm, the heavens and earth would be different from then on.

In the Chaos Sea, the True God Realm was also an existence belonging to the backbone forces.

Do not look at Donghua Palace and think it has over ten thousand True God Disciples,

and thus feel that the True God Realm is as common as cabbages.

That is actually not the case.

You must know that

those over ten thousand True God Disciples of Donghua Palace were slowly accumulated through countless epochs.

In those remote continents,

any single True God Cultivator was an overlord-like existence.

Even within the Donghua Domain,

Donghua Palace would still try its best to win over those True God Cultivators scattered in various places,

either recruiting them as a Guest Elder or maintaining friendly contact.

As long as they were not True God Cultivators who deliberately went against Donghua Palace,

Donghua Palace generally would not easily offend them.

It can be said like this:

as long as one successfully advanced to the True God Realm, it would be enough to roam freely across the Chaos Sea.

Ever since walking out of the Immortal Realm,

Zhang Yuhe had waited far too long for this day.

Had he not sat in dry meditation inside Donghua Palace for nearly sixty million years precisely for this moment?

Now this moment had finally arrived.

He just hoped that no accidents would happen.

Zhang Yuhe sat cross-legged on the cultivation platform.

As the Chaos Divine Demon Scripture slowly operated, the surrounding Divine Power Qi surged over like a swarm.

In an instant, the winds and clouds changed color.

A Spiritual Qi frenzy rapidly spread from the heart-of-the-lake island to the entire lake,

and even quickly expanded into the distance,

until it swept through the entire Donghua Palace.

Countless Disciples walked out of their Immortal Caves.

Gazing afar at the distant Spiritual Qi frenzy, everyone could not help feeling somewhat surprised.

"Eh, such a huge commotion."

"Could this be which Junior Brother about to break through to the True God Realm?"

"It should be."

"However, the scale of this Spiritual Qi frenzy seems a bit excessively large."

"Is this just beginning to break through, or has it already entered its final stage?"

"Not clear."

"Suddenly making such a big commotion, it should be just starting."

"It seems to be in the direction of Azure Wave Lake?"

"Those years when I first joined Donghua Palace, I often went fishing there."

"However, I remember that it seemed no one opened up an Immortal Cave over there."

"After all, that place is truly a bit too remote."

"Does anyone know which Junior Brother is breaking through?"

"Not clear."

Looking at the distant Spiritual Qi frenzy, countless True God Disciples pointed and gestured,

discussing in low voices.

Everyone guessed one after another who exactly the Disciple undergoing the Breakthrough was.

The Disciples of Donghua Palace were not considered many, but they weren't few either.

Almost no one could recognize all the Disciples completely.

People like Zhang Yuhe who never stepped outside were known by even fewer people.

Compared to those True God Disciples who gazed afar into the distance with avid interest while still chatting and laughing,

those Disciples below the True God Realm wore faces full of envy.

Looking at the commotion of that Spiritual Qi frenzy,

anyone with discerning eyes would know

that someone was breaking through to the True God Realm.

Thinking of how they had cultivated within Donghua Palace for countless years,

wasn't it precisely for this moment?

However,

just how many Disciples could truly successfully promote to the True God Realm?

Batch after batch of the hundred thousand Disciples below the True God Realm in Donghua Palace were eliminated.

Accumulated over endless years,

up to now, in total there were only over ten thousand people who successfully advanced to the True God Realm.

Now seeing someone about to take this step,

how could this not make them envious?

Although everyone within Donghua Palace was equal with no distinction of high or low,

between a True God and a Void God, there was still a huge difference after all.

Simply speaking from the perspective of power and authority,

after advancing to the True God Realm, one would quickly be arranged to major cities across the Donghua Domain to assume garrison responsibilities.

Wielding the authority of a region and managing the life and death of hundreds of millions of people.

As for Void God Disciples, at most they could only assume patrol responsibilities in various places.

Furthermore, such patrol missions had to be fought over in order to be secured.

Being a step slow with one's hands would result in the mission being claimed by others.

As for True God Disciples garrisoning all directions, this task did not need to be fought over at all.

Donghua Palace even felt that its True God Disciples were not enough, insufficient to garrison the vast territory.

As long as one successfully advanced to the True God Realm,

garrison missions would be dispatched down very quickly.

Without special reasons, wanting to shirk them was even impossible.

The gap between them was simply incomparable by any stretch of logic.

The True God Realm—

a single step out, and that was the difference between heaven and earth.
