Chapter 145 Yunshan: For some reason, I'm a little happy.
Nalan Yanran felt as if she had been struck by an invisible giant hammer. Her mind went blank, and the long sword in her hand fell to the ground with a "clang," but she was completely unaware of it.
Guhe's body swayed violently, his face turning deathly pale, as if all his strength had been drained. He staggered back a step, barely managing to stand by leaning against a nearby pillar, his eyes filled with endless pain and disbelief.
"This kid, how can you propose marriage like this! Doesn't he know any manners?" Hai Bodong smiled like an aunt, but muttered a complaint under his breath.
Meanwhile, Little Fairy Doctor watched this scene unfold, her smile fading slightly as her thoughts drifted: "When will Brother Yuhao be able to—"
Just then, a vast and powerful aura erupted from the depths of Yunlan Mountain! A beam of white light suddenly emerged from the depths of Yunlan Mountain and arrived at the sect's main hall in a matter of moments.
"Dou Zong? This aura is Yun Shan! This guy actually broke through!" Hai Bodong's smile instantly froze.
The white light faded, and a man dressed in a dark blue robe, with a few strands of black hair mixed in with his white hair, stood in mid-air! It was none other than Yun Shan, the previous sect master of the Yunlan Sect!
"Teacher! You—you've come out of seclusion?" Yun Yun, who was in the main seat, was startled awake by the sudden pressure. She snapped out of her blissful dizziness and saw the figure in the hall. Her beautiful face immediately showed surprise, and she quickly got up.
"Teacher?" Xiao Yan looked up at the flamboyant man who, despite being inside the hall, deliberately stood in mid-air to display his status, and blurted out instinctively, "You have a teacher?"
Snapped!
Hai Bodong slapped his forehead hard, making a crisp sound! He was still shocked that Yunshan had actually broken through the Dou Zong barrier, but Xiao Yan's nonsensical words pulled him back to reality!
"What's wrong with this kid? Does he still want his wife?!" Hai Bodong thought to himself, wishing he could rush up and cover Xiao Yan's mouth.
Surprisingly, Yun Shan wasn't angry when he heard Xiao Yan's words.
When Yun Leng and Ge Ye hurriedly woke him up and incoherently reported the explosive news that "the young sect leader's former fiancé is suspected of proposing to the sect leader," Yun Shan's good mood after just advancing to the Dou Zong level was instantly ruined!
He intended to appear immediately and stop this farce, which he considered utterly absurd and damaging to the reputation of the Yunlan Sect, with swift and decisive action.
However, when he arrived at the main hall and saw the scoundrel who was "stealing" away his most prized disciple, he managed to suppress the anger that was about to erupt!
So young—a Battle King?! Yun Shan felt an urge to rub his eyes. How long had he been in seclusion? Had the Jia Ma Empire developed to this level? Or was he just hallucinating from his seclusion?
In the blink of an eye, Yunshan changed his mind.
"You are Xiao Yan?" Yun Shan's voice was calm and composed, yet carried a hint of authority. "You wish to marry Yun'er?"
Xiao Yan met Yun Shan's gaze firmly, clasped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "This junior is indeed Xiao Yan! I have long admired Sect Master Yun Yun, and I humbly request your permission, senior!"
"Hmm." Yunshan subconsciously wanted to stroke his beard, but only halfway up his hand did he remember that his beard had disappeared after he broke through to the Dou Zong realm.
For some reason, seeing the young man in front of him showing such respect, Yunshan felt an inexplicable sense of pleasure and comfort welling up inside him.
"Teacher—" Seeing that Yunshan remained silent for a long time, Yunyun was worried that her teacher would object, and she was eager to start introducing Xiao Yan's many extraordinary qualities.
Yunshan glanced at the anxiety and affection written on his disciple's face, then swept his gaze over Guhe, who was pale and listless as if his soul had been taken away. After weighing the options for a moment, he made a decision.
"Since Yun'er likes you," Yunshan said, "I, as her teacher, can't be the villain who breaks up the couple."
"However, if you wish to marry the sect leader of my Yunlan Sect, you must first become a member of the Yunlan Sect! If you are willing to join the Yunlan Sect, I will agree to betroth Yun'er to you!"
Under Yun Yun's gaze, filled with surprise and shyness, Xiao Yan replied almost without hesitation, "I do!"
In the dense forest between the inner and outer courtyards of Canaan College.
Huo Yuhao's true form sat cross-legged on a smooth bluestone, using the pills and other resources he obtained from Demon Flame Valley and Black Emperor Sect to break through to the Dou Huang realm.
Within his mental world, the consciousness of the Guardian Mirror manifested as a sphere of light, hovering around Huo Yuhao's mental projection, uttering incredulous exclamations: "Hey! Is this what you call seclusion?! Who secludes themselves like this, multitasking like this?!"
It looked out at Huo Yuhao, who was everywhere, covering the mountains and plains. Yes, everywhere! Throughout the inner courtyard, on the outskirts of the outer courtyard, and even between the outer and inner courtyards—
Between the intersecting mountain ranges, there were dozens of Huo Yuhao's divine sense clones!
"I know you can multitask, but this isn't just being distracted! Is your heart made of sand?" The Mirror of Guardians' voice was filled with rage. "You're breaking through a major realm right now! Not doing normal cultivation! And you're doing this, breaking through while simultaneously building infrastructure? Aren't you afraid of going berserk?!"
Huo Yuhao, who was sitting cross-legged in the center of his spiritual world, slowly opened his eyes, his tone calm and natural: "It's alright. These trivial matters do not affect my control over energy."
Guardian Mirror: "————"
"Alright, time is precious." Huo Yuhao quickly changed the subject. "Mirror, you mentioned the Great Thousand World Spirit Array before. Now that you have time, could you tell me about it in detail?"
When the topic turned to its area of expertise, the Guardian Mirror temporarily set aside its criticisms of Huo Yuhao's cultivation methods. Its light sphere flickered, and its voice became serious: "Spirit Arrays—I only have a superficial understanding of them. But their core essence lies in the manipulation and guidance of energy between heaven and earth!"
It projected a highly complex rune, radiating a unique allure, into Huo Yuhao's mental world: "The foundation of the spirit array lies in the 'Spirit Seal'!"
The virtual spirit seal flickered slightly, and wisps of pure light in the surrounding space were immediately drawn to it, slowly rotating around it. "Spirit seals are the bridges and controllers for communicating with external energy! By changing the number, position, and resonance frequency of spirit seals, spirit array masters can create ever-changing and infinitely powerful spirit arrays."
With the Guardian Mirror's clear and concise explanation, and combined with the spiritual imprint it projected, Huo Yuhao gained a deeper understanding of this power, which was so different from the array system of the Dou Qi Continent. His mental projection's eyes gleamed with contemplation, as if it were deducing something.
"No matter how much theory you talk about, it's all just empty talk." The Guardian Mirror finished its explanation, and the sphere of light pulsed expectantly. "Why don't you try condensing a very basic spirit seal now?"
Outside the outer courtyard, on a mountain range, one of Huo Yuhao's mental clones stopped its work of sorting out the nearby ley lines, its gaze becoming incredibly focused.
"Spirit Seal—" he murmured to himself, recalling the information conveyed by the Mirror of Protection.
He slowly raised his right hand, extending his index finger. At the tip of his finger, a faint yet pure energy began to gather.
