Chapter 1239: May You Reach an Even Higher Height
Xiang Shaoyun was able to obtain the inheritance of time by pure luck. Although he hadn't fully grasped the dao of time, he was still ahead of Devil Concubine. The three battle techniques he had created from his comprehension of the dao of time were Instant Tempo, As Time Goes By, and Time Rewind.
He held nothing back as he fought the Devil Sovereigns. As he used the three techniques, time and space around him were affected and gave one an illusion that the flow of time had turned chaotic.
The Devil Sovereigns were not immune to the effects of time. They couldn't even properly display their strength before Xiang Shaoyun killed them off one after another.
Devil Concubine remained near Xiang Shaoyun, allowing her to clearly sense the terror of the dao of time. Staying near him also granted her some enlightenment of the dao of time. She started circulating her yin and yang energies in accordance with what she saw. With her rich experience in cultivating the powers of yin and yang, she finally managed to touch upon the surface of the dao of time.
This wasn't surprising because the Yin Yang Sword Technique she practiced was in itself a product of the dao of time. It was one of the most precious ancient techniques in the True Martial Academy. It wasn't a complete technique, but it was incredibly suited for her.
The sword she wielded wasn't the actual Yang Child Sword. Rather, it was a counterfeit that greatly resembled the actual sword, which was why the Yin Mother Sword stopped reacting the moment Xiang Shaoyun touched it.

As for Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, Wu Zhijun, and Min Rourou, they stayed at the fringe of the battlefield and focused on killing the other devils. A decent number of Devil Emperors had also appeared, and the four had difficulty dealing with them.
Xiang Shaoyun released Money and had him protect them. Only then could they fight without worrying about their backs. Before long, they killed all the flying devils.
"I'm entering the third layer. You guys should stay and train in this layer. The third layer is true hell. With your strength, you won't be able to survive," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly.
"Boss, you don't have to be so honest about it," said Xia Liuhui.
"Shaoyun is right. The second layer is enough for our tempering. Shaoyun, go on to the third layer. Don't worry about us," said Liang Zhuangmin.
"The devils are endlessly coming out from the lower layers. It's clear they are going to invade the surface soon. Try to grow as fast as you can. Don't worry about anything else. Don't even worry about the expedition. Focus on staying alive," reminded Xiang Shaoyun.
He then gave Xia Liuhui and Liang Zhuangmin some of the treasures in his possession. Even Wu Zhijun and Min Rourou were given some gifts. Both of them wanted to refuse, but their men told them otherwise. It would seem rude of them to reject Xiang Shaoyun's gifts.
Then, Xiang Shaoyun brought Liang Zhuangmin to the side and said, "Big brother, spend some time cultivating before you start moving again. I can help you reach a higher height."
"Shaoyun, you have given me enough. I will be too embarrassed to accept more from you," said Liang Zhuangmin.
"Don't say things like that if we're brothers," said Xiang Shaoyun solemnly. "Sit down and adjust your condition. I'll give you some mystic earth essence energy. With this energy, you can advance rapidly. Otherwise, it will take you a long time to catch up to my sister-in-law."
"Mystic earth essence energy?" Liang Zhuangmin's eyes lit up. He knew how amazing of an energy it was. For an earth cultivator like him, that energy was fatally attractive.
Liang Zhuangmin no longer refused and sat down in meditation as told. Xiang Shaoyun waited until Liang Zhuangmin finished adjusting his condition. He then withdrew some mystic earth essence energy from his astral cosmos sea and channeled it into Liang Zhuangmin.
Liang Zhuangmin had a high affinity with the power of earth. Although his affinity wasn't as high as someone with an Innate Earth Physique, he wasn't that far off either. He quickly absorbed the energy and started increasing his cultivation.
The mystic earth essence energy was worthy of being one of the purest earth energies in existence. Liang Zhuangmin easily absorbed the energy into his body, allowing his cultivation to rise rapidly.
Xiang Shaoyun wasn't stingy and continued channeling more mystic earth essence energy into Liang Zhuangmin's body. After an unknown amount of time, Liang Zhuangmin was on the brink of a breakthrough. Xiang Shaoyun abruptly increased the energy flow, allowing Liang Zhuangmin to absorb as much energy as needed. His cultivation continued rising.
Xiang Shaoyun even activated the profundity of earth, allowing Liang Zhuangmin to form some sort of resonance with earth energy. He soon broke through successfully. Earth energy descended upon him from the stars above as the mystic earth essence energy gathered in his stars. The energy circulating in his body sped up, and the breakthrough was completed.
Not far away, Xia Liuhui, Min Rourou, and Wu Zhijun were astonished when they sensed Liang Zhuangmin's strengthened aura.

Wu Zhijun was overjoyed. "Did Big Brother Liang really break through? That's great!"
Wu Zhijun knew that Liang Zhuangmin was infatuated with her. However, the gap between their strength was too big. Her family wouldn't agree to a relationship between them. But with Liang Zhuangmin's rapid rise in strength, she saw hope. Now that Liang Zhuangmin had grown stronger once again in such a short period of time, she felt that it wouldn't be long before they could truly be together.
Xiang Shaoyun stopped the energy flow. It wouldn't necessarily be beneficial if he forcefully pushed Liang Zhuangmin's cultivation too high. He returned to the group and said, "Stand guard for Big Brother Liang for a bit. He still needs some time to consolidate his cultivation. I'm leaving for the third layer."
"Boss, what miraculous pill did you give Big Brother Liang? I want to enter the Soul Foundation Realm as well!" said Xia Liuhui with a look of longing.
"The energy I gave him is not suited for you. You're already not far from a breakthrough. It's better for you to spend some time tempering your foundations. Don't be in too much of a rush. Instead, you should focus on gathering better soul foundation materials," reminded Xiang Shaoyun.
"Alright, got it. But it's really hard for me to find the materials suited for my cultivation of two powers," said Xia Liuhui.
"It's only a matter of time," said Xiang Shaoyun. "Money, stay here and protect them. You can't slack so much. You also need more combat experience if you want to grow faster."
Money's head drooped as he said, "Alright, boss."
He much preferred sleeping on Xiang Shaoyun's body. After saying all he needed, Xiang Shaoyun left for the third layer with Devil Concubine.
