Serene Together

While calmer, Lin Xiang still said, 'Seems like you're quick to pick up on things. Indeed, our next stop is exactly this inheritance ground. Whatever happens in there can't be blamed on us if we're attacked. Everything always comes down to one's ability.'

'Or lack thereof.' Xie Ya lightly giggled. Afterward, her expression turned a bit serious as she asked, 'Still, guarding that place will surely be Heavenly Ruler elders. Maybe there will even be a Heavenly King in there watching over Azure Duan.'

'You should be aware of this. Are Heavenly King so easy to move?'

Lin Xiang's causal question struck a chord in Xie Ya's mind. She had her own troubling experience in trying to contact with her ancestor Heavenly Kings.

But nearly all of these unfathomable Heavenly Kings have too much aloofness carved into their personalities. Some seem like completely different beings compared to how they were in the Heavenly Ruler realm.

It's not as if these Heavenly King doesn't care. But they're all far too focused on comprehending their path of Profound Laws.

Even the most lowest of Heavenly Kings would still have a fascination with drawing out the deep power of their Profound Laws.

The more pure in heart and minds would want to discover every little concept that inhabits their Profound Laws.

Thus, causally seeing a Heavenly King was probably more difficult than simply trying to reach the Heavenly King realm.

Xie Ya bashfully smiled and shrugged her shoulders. 'Eh. Even without a Heavenly King, the brat could still have the protection of a Heavenly King. All I'm saying is that I'd rather not die because of some damn talisman.'

Lin Xiang lightly chuckles. 'Don't fret. As you already guess, my prowess is equal to early layer Heavenly Kings. Even if the geniuses pull out dozens of talismans, the end result won't change. Now then, let's continue checking out other cultivation arts, and then we'll go to our room to prepare. There's no reason to delay, so we'll head to the inheritance ground tomorrow morning.'

'Ah-ah. Mn. Right.'

Xie Ya's tone slightly falters. She was suddenly hit back with the thought of sharing a room overnight with Lin Xiang.

This mysterious expert who seems to know everything and anything about cultivation. It almost made some fantastical thoughts emerge in her mind.

But before her ideas run wild, Xie Ya took one look at Lin Xiang's typical calm face and calmed her nerves. He only sees it as a cultivation opportunity and so should she.

Nothing wild will happen, just a simple cultivation link between partners.

Ignoring the stirring from his soul, Xie Ya closely followed Lin Xiang. Like ghosts and gods, their trek brought them far and wide through the expansive palace library.

Every book and cultivation art contains its unique sensations of Profound Laws.

...

Hours later and Lin Xiang felt satisfied with what he can find in the palace library.

Throughout their time, Lin Xiang and Xie Ya could practically feel a gathering of stares on their back.

As that elderly man explained, the news of their bloodline spread like wildfire. The scarcity of Heavenly Tier bloodlines was too far wide. Even Divine Tier sect highly values their qualities.

Such powerful bloodlines were more than worthy of attention from the elders.

But neither Lin Xiang nor Xie Ya held any desire to mingle with the elders.

The duo cordially dealt with anyone wanting to strike up conversations until Lin Xiang decided it was time to leave.

After gathering his materials, he and Xie Ya quickly shot off into the skies on their Heavenly Clouds.

Their swift leaves stunted peak Heavenly Origin and half-step Heavenly Ruler elders. Their eyes searched and their Divine Senses scanned the palace library. But not a single trace of their life auras could be detected!

A group of peak Heavenly Origin and half-step Heavenly Ruler elders were scratching their heads with each other.

"These new elders also have such an amazing movement ability? Not even the Great Elders can move so quickly and silently."

"Great Elder Jiao is known to have the most exquisite movement, but not even his can be so...instantaneously. Haaah...that's the power of a bloodline, after all. Anyone of them just has so many strange abilities."

"I wonder how these new two will perform. Their futures are exceedingly bright..."

....

Given the immense size of the Sacred Emperor Mansion, Lin Xiang and Xie Ya were graciously given their own secluded space for residency.

In just a few minutes of flying, Lin Xiang and Xie Ya came across the elders' living quarters.

A surprisingly beautiful grassy field that was filled with rows of luxurious houses. Every house built here exuded the glorious radiance of powerful Law runes.

Numerous Heavenly Origin elders, half-step Heavenly Ruler elders, and even a presence far surpassing both realms could be seen walking or flying in this area.

Speeding over to a runic house a bit secluded from others, Lin Xiang and Xie Ya had reached their chambers.

After showcasing his badge to open the front doors, Lin Xiang and Xie Ya directly stepped inside.

A beautiful interior had met their vision. Supremely luxurious, fitted for the nobles of cultivation. Even the average cultivator would feel overwhelmed by the supreme nobility. Much less a mortal who would directly faint on the spot.

Lin Xiang's previous cultivation dwelling simply couldn't compare.

Xie Ya had her eyes close as she took slow steps in. She muttered out loud, "Not a bad place to live if one is to rest or go into seclusion. The atmosphere is quite serene and quite potent with Profound Laws. Really is suited best for us."

Looking over to Lin Xiang, words slightly caught in Xie Ya's throat. A sliver amount of hesitation nearly slipped in her tone, but she was quick to get over it.

She directly asked, "So? What are your plans for tomorrow? It basically seems like you everything planned out one step ahead."

"First of all, let's simply meditate together. We'll be close by for some time now and it's best to get gradually used to our presence during cultivation." Lin Xiang causally explained.

For Profound Law cultivators, it was a considerable deal on just who will be close to them while they cultivate.

It was impossible to separate that mystical sensation link all cultivators gain when studying the forces of the universe. During these times, the fluctuation a nearby cultivator can have could either disturb one's mental state or peacefully coexist.

Lin Xiang and Xie Ya had already experienced such a sensation two times. Both times did they feel completely natural and serene, like the calming waves of water.

Doing it once more was actually something Xie Ya slightly look forward to. She smilingly nodded, saying, "Let's get right down to business then."

Her posture quickly enters into a meditative state. Comfortable and free-flowing allowed her mind to smoothly commune with the atmosphere.

As a special bloodline user, all she was perceiving was the mystical Profound Laws of Lightning within the atmosphere.

Trickles of faint electricity danced around her body. The sizzling sensation of lightning was attuned to her element.

Lin Xiang didn't really need to assimilate into a meditative state. He was curious about observing Xie Ya's cultivation state. Thus, his Soul Sense simply rippled throughout the atmosphere while his eyes stayed open.

A master of his Dao Heart realm could easily split his focus. In fact, doing five things at once during cultivation could be accomplished with the flip of his hand.

Both Lin Xiang and Xie Ya entered a serene state. The mystical link between them emerges, exuding a peaceful atmosphere.

Xie Ya had even felt sharper than usual. Her Divine Sense can just pierce slightly farther into the mysterious fog that is the Profound Laws of lightning.

This kind of state silently went by for around a quarter of an hour.

Xie Ya hadn't even noticed the time, but Lin Xiang had a slight smirk. He suddenly said, "Now, this is interesting. Not many are able to generate phantom lights during cultivation. Such glorious lightning...it makes your enchanting image that more beautiful."

"Eh?"

Xie Ya nearly blurted out loud. A stirring, a faint sensation rippled from her soul. She was truly caught off guard. There was no other way to take that comment.

Yet, the way Lin Xiang's voice sounded incomparably smooth, like soft silk, his compliment just made it seem like the most natural fact in the world.

Xie Ya was quick to recover, however. She coughed, saying, "I didn't expect brother Lin to have quite the silver tongue among your other abilities. You honestly seem more like the stone-cold, mysterious master type."

"I was just honestly speaking." Lin Xiang lightly shrugged. "And it wasn't just flowery words. My guidance works best with those fully invested in their Laws. In fact, I have something that'll greatly benefit us both."

"Oh? Do you?" Xie Ya's face brightly shined higher than the sun.

Anything related to advancing her cultivation would surge every ounce of excitement!
