After getting a taste of Old Lan's cooking, Ye Jun didn't think he had anything else left to do. He tried contacting his dear friends but got nothing in response.
He sighed and decided to just do it. He was currently in the best condition to try Ascension, as the feeling of sensing Soul Essence still lingered there in his mind.
Without any hesitation, he climbed the mountain peak and reached Han Yuexin's home. Like always, he found her meditating on her special spot.
He waited for a few minutes before Han Yuexin allowed him inside. He clasped his hands before her and said, "I would like to attempt the advancement."
"Are you sure?" Han Yuexin asked, frowning. "You can take your time building your foundation before trying. It's extremely dangerous."
"I've read everything about it, Elder Han," Ye Jun spoke with resolution and determination. "I'm as ready as I ever could be."
She looked into his eyes for a few seconds before smiling, "I hope you succeed then."
