Chapter 93: Great Advancement in Spear Dao Comprehension, Great Completion of the Spear Heart Realm!
"Clan Leader Yang, then take out your clan-protecting treasure and let me have a look. I'd like to see what secrets it holds."
Hearing this, Yang Lie nodded and slowly walked toward the innermost part of the rear hall, retrieving a long black box.
This black box was extremely ancient-looking, clearly something passed down from many years ago.
Yang Lie brought the black box before Yun Yuan and slowly opened it. What entered Yun Yuan's sight was an ancient, timeworn wooden spear.
The spear was covered in intricate patterns, and a lingering spear intent faintly emanated from its body, as if declaring its mystery and power.
"This clan-protecting treasure… is indeed extraordinary."
With just a single glance, Yun Yuan could sense the spear's uniqueness.
He then stepped forward, reaching into the black box, taking out the wooden spear, and holding it in his palm.
Yun Yuan slowly closed his eyes, focusing his spiritual power on the patterns carved into the spear.
As time passed, a vast and ancient aura suddenly erupted from the wooden spear, instantly sweeping through the entire rear hall.
Yang Lie felt a surging spear intent rush toward him, forcing him to retreat several steps involuntarily, his heart filled with shock.
"Could it be… that today, the mystery that has puzzled our Breaking Clan for thousands of years will finally be solved?"
Since ancient times, this wooden spear had never displayed any abnormal phenomena. Yet today, because of Yun Yuan, it erupted with such overwhelming power for the first time.
At this moment, Yun Yuan's body was already enveloped in a faint golden glow. His tightly shut eyes trembled slightly, and his aura became increasingly steady.
His spiritual power completely merged into the spear's patterns, resonating fully with this treasure that carried the Breaking Clan's legacy for thousands of years.
In an instant, countless fragmented scenes flooded into his mind. It was the life of the Breaking Clan's ancestor—his entire journey from an ordinary soul master to the peak of the spear dao.
In those scenes, the young boy awakened his martial soul and trained relentlessly with the spear, practicing day after day for ten years. As a youth, he traveled the continent, seeking opponents, breaking through all skills with unstoppable sharpness…
Yun Yuan's mind was completely immersed in the ancestor's life on the spear dao.
He knew this was a tremendous opportunity. Witnessing the life of a spear-dao powerhouse was enough to benefit him for a lifetime.
Outside, Yang Wudi looked at Yun Yuan's state with curiosity, glancing at his father, Yang Lie, hoping for an explanation.
Seeing his son's confusion, Yang Lie pulled him to a corner of the rear hall. After confirming they wouldn't disturb Yun Yuan, he began to explain.
"Wudi, this is a state that soul masters dream of their entire lives. It's called enlightenment!"
"It's different from deep meditation. Enlightenment is far rarer. Even experiencing it once in a lifetime is a heaven-sent opportunity."
"Soon, His Highness the Holy Son will awaken. We only need to wait here."
Hearing this, Yang Wudi nodded repeatedly, his expression serious, and silently stood guard beside Yun Yuan.
Not to mention that their Breaking Clan had already joined Pill Hall; even if they hadn't, just the favor of that single pill earlier would make Yang Wudi determined to protect Yun Yuan.
After a while, Yun Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and the spear intent around him surged dramatically.
The originally immature aura of someone who had just entered the Spear Heart Realm rapidly transformed, becoming sharp, heavy, profound, and domineering. Various spear-dao intents merged into one, and even the surrounding air seemed to distort under this overwhelming force.
"Spear Heart Perfection!"
Upon awakening, Yun Yuan immediately understood his current level. Spear Heart Perfection—normally, only Titled Douluo-level soul masters could reach this stage.
Not far away, Yang Lie had trained with the spear for decades and was only at the Early Spear Heart Realm. Without a great opportunity, he might remain at that level for the rest of his life.
Naturally, Yang Lie noticed Yun Yuan's change. As someone who had immersed himself in the spear dao for decades, he knew Yun Yuan had made a tremendous breakthrough, directly reaching the Great Completion Spear Heart Realm.
Recalling their battle earlier that day, when Yun Yuan had only just entered the Spear Heart Realm, and now, before a single day had even passed, he had nearly reached the peak of that realm—it was truly astonishing.
"Congratulations, Your Highness the Holy Son, on reaching the Spear Heart perfection."
After sighing inwardly, Yang Lie stepped forward and spoke to Yun Yuan.
Hearing this, Yang Wudi widened his eyes in disbelief.
As a spear practitioner, he knew exactly what this meant. Spear Heart Perfection was something typically only Titled Douluo could achieve.
Yet Yun Yuan had reached it at the Soul King level. More importantly, he hadn't even trained with the spear for many years.
"This is also thanks to your clan-protecting treasure. Now, I'll explain the secret within it to you."
After nodding to the father and son, Yun Yuan handed the wooden spear back to Yang Lie and began to reveal its secret.
"This wooden spear contains an artistic conception. If one's comprehension is sufficient, one can witness the entire spear-training life of your ancestor, greatly enhancing one's spear comprehension."
"However, there is a limitation. The remaining artistic conception within the spear is limited. At most, it can only be comprehended two more times."
After hearing Yun Yuan's explanation, Yang Lie and Yang Wudi exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly. Although the treasure was powerful, it was only useful for true geniuses. Without extraordinary talent, one wouldn't even be able to comprehend it.
"Ah, fate truly plays its part. It seems this treasure can only wait for a supreme genius within the clan to unlock its potential."
With a sigh, Yang Lie placed the wooden spear back into the black box and returned it to the rear hall.
After uncovering the secret of the clan-protecting treasure, Yun Yuan returned to the room prepared for him by the Breaking Clan, planning to rest for the night before heading back to Spirit City the next day.
Meanwhile, the Breaking Clan began preparing for relocation. Within a few days, the entire clan would likely appear in Spirit City.
Not only that, the Ye family, along with various small forces and independent soul masters intending to join Pill Hall, would do the same.
That night, Yun Yuan slept soundly. Today's gains had been immense—not only had he recruited the Breaking Clan, successfully poaching from the Clear Sky Sect and weakening them,
But most importantly, his spear comprehension had directly advanced to the Spear Heart Perfection. Beyond that lay the fourth realm of the spear dao—the Spear Soul Realm.
A few days later, Spirit City.
Yun Yuan returned once again. Now, he needed to begin preparing how to quickly teach the alchemy system to the members who would soon join the Pill Hall.
"Sigh, being a leader is troublesome, having to manage everything."
After letting out a sigh, Yun Yuan suppressed his irritation and filled himself with motivation, because he knew this was all for his path to godhood. Everything was worth it.
