Chapter 889 878: On the Verge of Breakthrough
The energy contained in this jar of Elven Nectar was surprisingly enormous, causing the total energy within Bai Yan's body to far exceed its limits, and allowing him to glimpse the verge of a breakthrough.
At this moment, he lifted his head, staring directly at the Elf Holy Mother with a somewhat dry voice issuing from his lips.
"Find a quiet place, I need to break through."
Bai Yan could of course choose to go back to the Abyss or elsewhere to break through, but the tremendous energy fluctuations caused by the breakthrough would also serve as a deterrent to the Elf Clan, so he decided to break through within the Elf Clan's territory.
Furthermore, almost all the strong individuals on Demon Island were now in Elf Clan territory, and anyone with ill intentions towards Bai Yan would likely not know how they died.
"Ah! Lord Bai Yan, please follow me!"
The Elf Holy Mother was startled, immediately stood up from the ground, and walked to Bai Yan to lead the way for him.
Bai Yan's breakthrough was a major event for the Elf Clan, and a very good one indeed, as the Elf Clan, including the Elf Divine Tree, resented the Outer Realm Beings for the unbearable memories they brought to them.
The enhancement of Bai Yan's strength would lead the entire Endless Star Sea to undergo a massive transformation. The Elf Clan had long been entangled with Bai Yan, and as Bai Yan grew stronger, the Elf Clan's fortune would correspondingly grow stronger as well.
Therefore, the Elf Holy Mother was naturally delighted to find a safe and quiet place for Bai Yan to undergo his breakthrough.
And that place was right beneath the Elf Divine Tree!
The Elf Divine Tree was the most powerful entity within the Elf Clan, and no one dared act rashly here. Its strength could easily be equated to that of a Quasi Emperor.
The Elf Divine Tree would only act when the Elf Clan faced utter disaster, hence not many knew its secrets.
Bai Yan, led by the Elf Holy Mother, arrived beneath the Elf Divine Tree, accompanied by Qin Jiuluo and Su Zhijun, both concerned for Bai Yan and the strongest individuals he could find by his side.
Just as he stepped beneath the Elf Divine Tree, the energy within Bai Yan's body could no longer be suppressed, and he could even feel the dragon vein within him throbbing with pain.
If he did not break through in time, it might cause unavoidable damage to his body!
With a casual wave of his hand, Bai Yan sent the Elf Holy Mother and others several hundred meters away with a Divine Radiance, and then he immediately sat cross-legged beneath the Elf Divine Tree, focusing his entire attention on his own body.
This was a long-overdue moment for Bai Yan, observing his body with Divine Thought, feeling the energy rampant within him, and the undigested Elven Nectar continuing to transform into more energy for his use.
Bai Yan had underestimated the Elven Nectar, thinking he still had some time before his breakthrough.
However, breaking through now within the Elf Clan wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
In a swift motion, Bai Yan began directing the energy within himself along his dragon veins, circulating around his body, as the surging energy cleansed his meridians that had now become dragon veins.
Simultaneously, the energy Bai Yan could not guide seeped into his body, transforming his physical strength.
In more fantastical terms, Bai Yan's body was undergoing tempering!
Elven Nectar was coveted by the entire Endless Star Sea because of its gentle energy, granting significant enhancements to any species that drank it.
But Bai Yan had no time to dwell on such thoughts now; the energy within him had reached a state where he must break through to find an outlet.
Breaking through from Quasi-Saint to Saint Realm required comprehension of the World Rules, but for Bai Yan, it wasn't that difficult.
After all, his past life's heritage was already rich with World Rules, and he had created an Abyss World of his own, where he experimented with various rules.
So meeting this condition was easily accomplished.
It was only a matter of time; understanding World Rules demanded more time.
But the one thing Bai Yan lacked now was time!
As Bai Yan grew anxious, unsure of how to proceed, he suddenly noticed that his surroundings were no longer as empty as before.
No, he realized instantly, this wasn't a view perceived through his eyes!
Clearing his mind, Bai Yan grasped that he was observing the world through Divine Thought in a very unique way!
Directly perceiving the world's source!
Bai Yan was undoubtedly shocked, for being able to directly perceive the world's source without reason surely indicated some underlying mystery.
Yet in the next moment, he understood, as he heard the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze from the Elf Divine Tree behind him.
He immediately sensed the amicable intentions radiating from the Elf Divine Tree, realizing the origin of this ability to perceive the world's source directly.
"Thank you."
Bai Yan whispered, while fully focusing on sensing and understanding the World Rules contained within this source.
Though the Elf Divine Tree had existed for countless years, with Bai Yan recalling it had remained unchanged even in his past life, likely originating from the dawn of the world, its actions inevitably had motives.
Bai Yan knew he must complete his breakthrough in a limited time, lest he owe too great a debt of gratitude. After all, he intended to bring the Elf Clan under his control, and owing such a debt would complicate matters.
Fortunately, Bai Yan was strong enough, his Divine Thought akin to a vast net enveloping the source before him!
Each intricate line captured part of the world's source, directly delving into and understanding them, converting them into his own strength!
The more of the world's source understood and World Rules comprehended during a breakthrough to Saint Realm, the stronger one's power would become.
Some understood three or five World Rules and could defeat the supreme beings within the Saint Realm, but what Bai Yan wanted was to comprehend all the World Rules!
Though many say that biting off more than one can chew leads to failure, Bai Yan firmly believed in his abilities. He knew he had lingered long enough in the Quasi-Saint Realm, his foundation solid, with everything prepared as if for this very breakthrough!
The Elf Divine Tree, seeing Bai Yan's resolve, conveyed a cautious thought, yet it didn't dissuade Bai Yan from his intentions and actions.
The Elf Divine Tree knew Bai Yan, having even communicated with him before, and should Bai Yan fail his breakthrough due to overreaching, it would feel a twinge of sorrow.
So naturally, it wished to advise Bai Yan.
But how could Bai Yan let it, and the people of Demon Island, the entire Endless Star Sea, down?
