Chapter 22: Half a Year Passes, Atlas Intent is Achieved!
After hearing his grandfather's warning, hope rose once again within Tang Hao's heart.
His grandfather was right; on the path of a Soul Master, a momentary lead means nothing. What matters is who can reach the end.
Furthermore, he had not yet displayed the true glory of the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, the Ring Explosion secret technique, and the Great Sumeru Hammer were the combat skills most suited for the Clear Sky Hammer.
Thinking of this, Tang Hao's Martial Souls soared, and the resentment from being defeated by Yun Yuan gradually dissipated.
Upon returning to the Clear Sky Sect this time, he was determined to work even harder to learn the Clear Sky combat skills. When they next met, he would let Yun Yuan taste their power.
Seeing that Tang Hao had come around, Tang Chen nodded with satisfaction, a bright smile appearing on his face. It seemed this defeat was not without its gains.
After defeating Tang Hao and reclaiming Spirit Hall's reputation, Yun Yuan's life returned to normal.
He followed Qian Xunji to learn about the Soul Master World, Elder Yin to study knowledge of Martial Souls, Gu Feng to study the Spear Dao, and Qian Daoliu to organize his own path of cultivation.
As a super Douluo, Qian Daoliu had much that Yun Yuan could draw upon for his cultivation path.
During this period, Qian Daoliu once again witnessed Yun Yuan's near-divine comprehension. Whatever he taught, Yun Yuan could grasp immediately and apply it to other scenarios.
Although Yun Yuan spent most of his time absorbing knowledge and growing, rarely stepping out the door, everyone throughout Spirit Hall knew they had a Son of Saint whose talent was strong to the extreme.
Defeating a genius of the Clear Sky Sect with only a single-ring cultivation and winning with a single spear strike had become a celebrated tale within Spirit Hall.
Among the younger generation of Spirit Hall, Yun Yuan was already regarded as the idol and goal they would chase for a lifetime.
However, Yun Yuan was completely unaware of this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't have had much of a reaction.
In Yun Yuan's heart, nothing in the world was more satisfying than the improvement of his strength. That feeling of seeing himself gradually progress was something he had never experienced before.
Therefore, on the Douluo Continent, he cherished his talent exceptionally and did not dare to waste even a bit of it.
Half a year later, inside Yun Yuan's palace.
A heavy aura, like a mountain range awakening, slowly spread from the hall. Yun Yuan sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, his eyes tightly closed, currently in a special state.
If Qian Xunji and Bibi Dong were here, they would certainly discover that Yun Yuan had entered a state of Enlightenment once again.
During his last Enlightenment, Yun Yuan had directly progressed from Spear Momentum to the embryonic form of Intent. This time, there was no telling what Yun Yuan might gain.
After an unknown amount of time, the air around the hall seemed to become viscous and heavy.
This was not the pressure of Soul Power, but a rock-like will originating from the Spiritual level.
Immediately after, Yun Yuan slowly opened his eyes, waking from his state of Enlightenment. At this moment, the aura around him grew heavier and more stable.
If anyone else were present, they would notice a faint, lingering sense of oppression emanating from Yun Yuan.
"Half a year has passed, and today I have finally entered the realm of Spear Intent. I shall call it the Atlas Intent."
After opening his eyes, Yun Yuan let out a long sigh, his voice carrying excitement and agitation.
The second realm of the Spear Dao: Spear Intent.
Spiritual Power merges into the spear; where the intent moves, the spear arrives. Within a single strike, killing intent, battle intent, and obsession are hidden. No longer stagnant in forms, one can use Spear Intent to interfere with the enemy's mind, break through illusions, and suppress their Martial Soul.
At this time, Yun Yuan had only just entered the realm of Intent. His Spear Intent was not strong and was far from the point of shaking heaven and earth.
But its foundation was extremely stable, as silent as the earth and as firm as a mountain peak. This was his Spear Intent—the Atlas Intent.
In half a year, besides the massive improvement in his Spear Dao realm, Yun Yuan's Soul Power level had not lagged behind much, reaching level eighteen directly.
This was even with the fact that he had three classes a day and very little time for meditation. Otherwise, Yun Yuan estimated he could have broken through another level or two.
However, from now on, his time would be more free, and he could arrange his own cultivation schedule.
In these six months, he had completely drained the knowledge from Gu Feng, Elder Yin, and Qian Xunji. Next, he would have to rely on himself to organize and refine it, turning it into his own knowledge.
Thinking this way, Yun Yuan began to look for a person, an Elder of Spirit Hall. Next, he was going to begin his own schemes.
Yun Yuan walked through Spirit City toward a certain manor. The owner of that manor was named Yue Guan.
Or rather, the future Chrysanthemum Douluo of Spirit Hall. Currently, Yue Guan was still only a Soul Douluo and had not yet broken through to become a Titled Douluo.
Yun Yuan's purpose in coming here to find him was to learn about Immortal Herbs from Yue Guan. After all, he knew that the Douluo Continent had a natural treasure basin, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
There were many Immortal Herbs there that could improve one's talent when consumed. But for the current Yun Yuan, who already possessed twice the talent of Yun Ming, Immortal Herbs would find it difficult to improve his talent further.
Not to mention, if the future truly matched Yun Yuan's speculation and his talent could still increase, the role of Immortal Herbs in improving his talent would be almost negligible.
However, there was one point about Immortal Herbs that Yun Yuan coveted: they could significantly increase a Soul Master's Soul Power level.
If used properly, it was possible to even increase by an entire major realm, which would save him at least a year or two of time.
After a while, Yun Yuan arrived in front of Yue Guan's manor based on information provided by Spirit Hall personnel.
Arriving at the main gate, Yun Yuan looked at the guards, took out his Son of Saint Medallion for them to see, and then said:
"Go inside and tell Elder Chrysanthemum that Yun Yuan, the Son of Saint of Spirit Hall, has come to visit."
Seeing the medallion Yun Yuan produced, the guards, being attendants of an Elder's manor, had some level of discernment. They first greeted Yun Yuan and then went inside to notify Yue Guan.
Not long after, a feminine man with a beautiful and eerie face and an elegant temperament walked out. This eerie and feminine man was Yue Guan.
"So it is His Highness the Saint. I wonder what business brings Your Highness here?"
The moment he saw Yun Yuan, a smile appeared on Yue Guan's face as he spoke warmly.
He was very puzzled by Yun Yuan's arrival. He remembered that he and Yun Yuan didn't seem to have any interactions.
Why would this most outstanding genius in the history of Spirit Hall come to find him? Why was that?
Just as Yue Guan was wondering, Yun Yuan's voice rang out.
"Elder Chrysanthemum, I have always been fond of flowers and plants. I heard in Spirit City that you have a certain understanding of this field."
"Therefore, I would like to learn about flowers and plants from Elder Chrysanthemum."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Yuan looked at Yue Guan with interest, wanting to hear his answer.
After hearing Yun Yuan's words, Yue Guan looked at him, his eyes flashing with a brilliant light. That gaze was as fervent as if he had found a lifelong soulmate.
Seeing Yue Guan's fervent gaze, Yun Yuan took two steps back. He had only said he liked flowers and plants; was such a big reaction necessary?
