Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 275 Stepping into the God Realm

a few days later.

There was absolutely no word about Cuihua's farce in the True Inheritance Hall.

Since that day, Xiao Yueluo's already weakened body, after being tormented by those emotions, completely collapsed.

He needed to take medicine every day and required a doctor to come twice a day, morning and evening, to check his pulse and ask questions. He stayed in the courtyard all day to recuperate and didn't even step out of the courtyard gate more than a few times.

Zhuge Tianxia, ​​on the other hand, threw himself into the affairs of the True Inheritance Hall, explaining the situation of that day to several elders, and was so busy that he barely had time to breathe.

Whenever he had a spare moment, he would run to Xiao Yueluo's courtyard, shuttling between the two places, unable to find any time to spare.

Guan Xun, on the other hand, found himself completely at ease, spending his days leisurely and enjoying himself.

The morning light streamed over the courtyard wall and shone on Guan Xun, who was sitting on a stone bench, twirling a gold coin in her hand, looking somewhat bored.

Bai Ze stepped into the courtyard: "Are you going to cultivate there again today?"

"Go." Guan Xun nodded, his fingertips paused, and the gold coin fell back into his palm.

While Zhuge Tianxia was busy with preparations, she had already made it clear that all the pills, spiritual materials, and spiritual artifacts in the True Inheritance Hall were available for her to use.

Such frankness was evident, and Guan Xun naturally didn't stand on ceremony with him, taking every opportunity to slip away to the west side.

"Hey." Bai Ze sighed, then casually sat down on the stone bench opposite him, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Count me in? I'm really bored out of my mind. The True Inheritance Hall is so big, it must have a lot of good stuff hidden inside."

Guan Xun glanced at him and gave a smile: "Alright."

She knew perfectly well that Bai Ze was now her most powerful weapon, and the sharper the weapon, the better.

Anyway, the things in the True Inheritance Hall didn't belong to her in the first place, so she might as well use them; it would be a real loss if she didn't use them all.

In the past few days, Guan Xun had already sent Bai Ze to investigate the situation at Shangju Pavilion.

You wouldn't believe it until you looked it up, and what you found was truly astonishing.

There were as many as eighteen elders of Hawkeye's rank at the Holy Peak Selection Tournament alone in the Upper Pavilion.

Fortunately, she was smart enough not to impulsively rush in to save Chi Rong, otherwise, given the situation, she wouldn't have been able to save him, and she would have lost her own life as well.

If it were a one-on-one fight, she wouldn't be without the confidence to fight back or even win, but if she were surrounded by eighteen people, she wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

Above the elders are the four personal guards under the Holy Spirit Goddess.

These four individuals hold prestigious positions and possess strength far surpassing that of the eighteen elders, making them the pillars of the Upper Residence Pavilion.

It is said that they always stayed close to the Holy Spirit and the Goddess, and even the elders rarely saw them.

"Tsk." Guan Xun clicked his tongue inwardly. It seemed that his sister's strength had become terrifying.

Otherwise, why would the eighteen elders of the Upper Pavilion, and the four guards who are far superior to the elders, be willing to submit to them?

In this world, the strong always reign supreme.

Only with a strong fist can one's words carry weight; otherwise, others will only see you as a joke.

Guan Xun frowned, his fingertips unconsciously tapping the stone table as his mind raced.

Using her level 97, 8th dan strength as a benchmark, her younger sister's talent was already comparable to hers. Millions of years would be enough for her to undergo a complete transformation, and her strength would only become more and more formidable.

The more she thought about it, the heavier her heart became. Guan Qi... could she really have reached that realm that only exists in legends?

That realm that even my mother couldn't reach before her fall—God.

"By the way," she paused, looking up at Bai Ze, "your master is so powerful, he must have already broken through to level 100, right? Do you know his exact cultivation level?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ze was taken aback at first, then a hint of pride appeared on his face: "Of course, you have crossed that insurmountable barrier. As for your specific cultivation level, I don't know, but I do know that your strength is far above the Divine Stepping Realm."

"The Divine Realm?" Guan Xun was taken aback; she had never heard of this term before. She immediately asked, "What kind of realm is that?"

"In your words, simply put, it's the so-called 'becoming a god' after breaking through level 100, which is called the God-Stepping Realm," Bai Ze explained. "Those who step into this realm will have a divine pattern appear on their physical body. That is the symbol of becoming a god. With the divine pattern appearing, the physical body will become extremely powerful, and ordinary methods cannot harm it in the slightest."

"I see..." Guan Xun raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and then, without saying a word, made a hand seal with his fingertips and began to circulate his internal energy.

The next second, pale golden patterns meandered up from her wrist, climbed over her forearm like a living thing, and disappeared into the depths of her sleeve. The patterns shimmered with light and spread to her entire body.

This is precisely the divine rune that Bai Ze mentioned is unique to the God-Stepping Realm.

"You?!" Upon seeing this, Bai Ze's pupils suddenly contracted. He stood up abruptly, causing the stone bench to shake and scrape against the bluestone slab with a harsh sound.

He stared intently at the strange patterns on Guan Xun's body, swallowed subconsciously, and his voice was somewhat excited: "How can you have divine patterns on your body?! Could it be that you have stepped into the Divine Realm? Impossible... no matter how you look at it, your cultivation level is only around level ninety!"

Guan Xun casually rubbed the skin on his wrist with his fingertips, shook his head, and said in a light tone, "My cultivation level is indeed not high enough. As for the patterns... I can only say it's just luck."

"..." Bai Ze's Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes filled with astonishment, which he suppressed again and again. Luck? This thing can be lucked out? However, seeing that the other party did not want to say more, he wisely did not ask any further questions. He just sighed heavily, shook his head and clicked his tongue, "It's only been a few years, and your strength has jumped to such a level. It's really unbelievable."

"In terms of talent, he's probably not much worse than the adults, and perhaps even..."

He paused, his eyes almost overflowing with envy.

As the two were talking, a series of light footsteps suddenly came from outside the courtyard wall.

Guan Xun's eyes flickered, and with a quick flick of his fingertips, the remaining divine patterns on his skin instantly disappeared completely.

"Sister! Sister!"

The crisp call was the first thing to catch people's attention, and Zhuge Zhao rushed in carrying a stack of books.

Upon seeing the two people in the courtyard, his eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace.

Zhuge Zhao had been coming almost every day for the past few days, and Bai Ze had become quite familiar with him. He immediately raised an eyebrow and teased, "Oh, you're here to visit again today?"

"Hehe, yes." Zhuge Zhao put the book on the stone table, his eyes crinkling. "I heard you guys say you were bored the other day, so I specially found some books to help you pass the time."

"Books?" Bai Ze was a little curious. He picked up a book at random and flipped through it, only to find that it was full of strange and whimsical little stories.

He immediately frowned, clicked his tongue a few times, and pointed at Guan Xun with his other hand: "He's just a kid after all, he loves these kinds of things. Give them to your sister, she likes to watch them."

Guan Xun: "..."

Zhuge Zhao was quick to notice the subtle differences in their expressions. His years of living under the roof of others had honed his ability to read people's expressions. When he saw that the two people in front of him showed no interest whatsoever, he immediately felt embarrassed. He unconsciously scratched the back of his head and lowered his voice, saying, "It seems that neither of you like to watch."

He pondered for a moment before looking up and saying, "How about we go for a stroll in the north section? It's so early in the morning, the disciples are probably all training, and we might even run into some people sparring and warming up."

Hearing this, Bai Ze showed no interest whatsoever: "What's so interesting about a bunch of kids gesturing like this?"

Guan Xun, however, did not think so. Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly stood up and patted her clothes.

"Walk."
