On the surface, he was just a low-grade spirit body, not favored by his family, and in the sect, no one respected him except his master.
He almost gave up on his dream.
His dream was to become a powerful figure, someone no one dared to offend.
He wanted to return to his family and slap those people's faces, and also find those from the sect who took his fiancée.
But now, things were looking up.
The small cauldron could help him awaken his hidden constitution, and it was of the King Grade.
This gave him a chance to realize his dream.
Originally, he wanted to try his luck at Jade Spirit Peak, as it was well known that the direct disciple of the seven peak masters of Jade Spirit Peak was a waste.
Coincidentally, he witnessed the fourth peak master, Liu Xue, fail in her breakthrough.
So, he had a different idea.
A failed breakthrough would temporarily cause her cultivation to disappear, and he had brought with him an incense fragrance from his family that his father had given him.
That incense could trap a severely injured person in a lust illusion realm and delay the recovery of their cultivation.
His mother had been ensnared this way.
And he intended to imitate that.
But unexpectedly, when he finally sneaked in, he encountered Lin Yu with ill intentions.
Liu Xue was his prey; how could he let someone else take the lead?
So, he disguised himself as a good person to intervene, but the result almost cost him his life.
Fortunately, he had another fortuitous encounter, and whether he could join Jade Spirit Peak no longer mattered.
"That's right, and your 'Soul-Devouring Body' is a growth-type constitution. As long as you grow to a certain stage, it can even evolve into a Sacred Body or an Emperor Body!"
Ye Wanqing said with great certainty.
She had just awakened, so she naturally didn't know Ye Xuan's previous thoughts. Now, she was judging Ye Xuan's character based on her past awakenings.
In her view, he was simple-minded, kind-hearted, and loyal!
Such a good person, coupled with limitless talent, was why she decided to reveal herself and help him grow.
After all, the things she needed to reshape her body were terrifyingly rare.
Without powerful strength, it was impossible to achieve.
And in her current state, it was completely impossible to invite experts of that level.
So, she could only cultivate one from a young age.
And Ye Xuan was someone she had watched grow up, loyal and talented, meeting all her criteria for cultivation.
"In the coming period, you need to go to the outer region of the Million Mountains. There are things there that can awaken your constitution!"
She offered another temptation.
Whether it was battle experience or constitution awakening, the Million Mountains was the best place to go.
It was a place where one could grow rapidly.
With her secretly protecting him, there wouldn't be any major problems.
"Okay, Sister Wanqing, I'll listen to you!"
Ye Xuan said, a glint of ambition flashing in his youthful eyes.
Hmph! Liu Xue, Lin Yu, you... just wait!
He snorted coldly in his heart.
He had appeared with good intentions to help, but unexpectedly, he was attacked with deadly intent.
A pair of bitch couple, he would definitely not let them go.

Jade Spirit Peak.
As dusk approached, Liu Xue finally emerged from Lin Yu's courtyard.
Her face was flushed, and overnight, she had gained a mature charm.
She looked back at the second floor, a faint smile playing on her lips.
This time, it seemed she had thoroughly satisfied this rebellious disciple, leaving him without the strength to even see her off.
She was a peak expert of the Elemental Infant Realm, and when it came to stamina, she was not to be underestimated.
This was a reward for the rebellious disciple.
After all, that guy had moved her to tears.
With this reason left by the rebellious disciple, even if the other sisters knew about their relationship, they wouldn't say much.
After all, the main reason Lin Yu chose to stay was because of her.
Thinking of this, her worries vanished, and she happily headed towards her own chamber.
She still needed a few days to recuperate before attempting another breakthrough.
With the God-Breaking Pill given by the rebellious disciple, she was sure to succeed this time.
In the bamboo house on the second floor.
Lin Yu sat cross-legged, recovering his strength.
ten whole hours—who could understand such a marathon?
From sunrise to sunset, a whole day, and he hadn't collapsed, which was quite impressive.
He somewhat regretted stirring up Liu Xue's emotions so much.
Almost ruined his old waist.
However, sacrifices had to be made for gains, and his future status at Jade Spirit Peak would be unshakable.
With Liu Xue's personality, she would definitely inform the other masters about his situation.
Whether it was his talent value or the emotional value indirectly conveyed to the other masters, they were maxed out.
To bring down the fated one, Ye Xuan, he would start with Jade Spirit Peak, which was both Ye Xuan's beauty hub and his stronghold.
Crippling one of his legs first would make the rest easier.
However, unfortunately, apart from the fourth master Liu Xue, the other masters were not present at the peak now.
He recalled the introduction of the masters in the original story during this part of the plot.
The first master, Lin Shiyin, was currently on the sect leader's orders to Jade Dragon Prefecture, discussing matters for the Thousand Prefectures Tournament organized by Lingxiao Pavilion.
Since any sect of the third grade or above could participate, there were over ten thousand sects, and it would take a long time, at least a month or two, before she returned.
The second master, Xia Zining, a cultivation fanatic, was the only one among the seven masters, besides the first master, to have broken through to the Primordial Spirit Realm. She was currently exploring and cultivating in a secret realm in Lei Prefecture.
To get her to return, it would require an order from the sect leader or an urgent matter at the peak, otherwise, she rarely returned to the sect. Lin Yu had only met her once in three years.
The third master, Leng Ruoxue, true to her name, was as cold as ice and snow. Except for being close to her sisters, she was like an ice goddess to everyone else.
She was now assigned to clear out powerful demonic beasts in a region near the sect in the Million Mountains, preparing for the initiation trial for new disciples in three months.
Returning to the sect would take ten days to half a month.
The fifth master, Feng Jiuge, a little princess of the Qingluan Clan, was currently undergoing the coming-of-age inheritance ceremony within her clan.
Yes, you read that right, coming of age.
The Qingluan Clan's coming of age was at two hundred years old, which sounded old, but was akin to eighteen for humans.
In comparison, she was even younger than Lin Yu, and was the only master who was somewhat kind to Lin Yu, as they were 'peers' and could have a conversation.
The sixth master, Yue Lingxi, had gone to Yun Prefecture to recruit disciples for the sect, a three-month task. The area cleared by the third master and others was for these new disciples.
The seventh master, Su Li, the youngest and most unique, was the sect leader's younger sister.
Instead of staying at Ethereal Peak, she had joined Liu Xue and others in forming Jade Spirit Peak, acting as a hands-off manager, often traveling between the various empires in the mortal world.

Currently, she should be in the capital city of the Great Flame Empire in Lihuo Prefecture.
He knew this because the Great Flame Empire bordered the Million Mountains, and the protagonist Ye Xuan would soon encounter the seventh master.
