Chapter 2987: Challenging the Highest Level (1)

"Mother, rest assured. This time, when I enter the September Divine Realm, I'll join forces with Brother Chu Feng, and we will definitely achieve great results."

"Although Brother Chu Feng currently has no backing within the clan and faces dangers on all sides, I believe he will rise — and I will always be by his side," Chu Yue said, her expression resolute.

"Good. Yue'er, you must take good care of Chu Feng. At the very least, you should do what a proper older sister ought to do."

"Trust your mother — befriending Chu Feng is absolutely the most correct path you will ever walk." Chu Yue's mother gripped her daughter's shoulders, her expression grave.

The reason Chu Yue's mother said this was because she had personally witnessed how those who befriended Chu Xuanyuan — despite possessing utterly ordinary aptitude — had soared to great heights with his help.

She herself had been too foolish back then and missed the opportunity. But she hoped that what she had missed, her daughter Chu Yue would not miss. Especially now that Chu Yue had such a wonderful chance.

Hearing her mother say this, Chu Yue smiled sweetly and nodded firmly.

Seeing Chu Yue like this, a look of gratification finally surfaced on her mother's face.

As long as Chu Yue could seize this opportunity to befriend Chu Feng, not only would Chu Yue benefit — even she herself would achieve greater things.

Such was the world of martial cultivators. Every warrior was a tree. During the seedling stage, it was hard to tell who would prevail, but sooner or later, differences in height would emerge.

Some were destined to be utterly mediocre — a single gust of strong wind could snap them in two.

Others were destined to grow into towering trees whose shade would block even the light of the sun and moon.

And those who grew beneath such a towering tree would enjoy absolute safety.

In Chu Yue's mother's eyes, Chu Feng was precisely such a towering tree. Not for any other reason, but simply because he was the descendant of Chu Xuanyuan.

...

After that, Chu Yue took the materials needed to fuse the Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls and arrived at where Chu Feng was.

The two immediately began attempting to fuse the Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls, and with Chu Feng's strength as a Robed Spirit World Master, they quickly figured out how the Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls worked.

First, each Yin-Yang Destiny Pearl contained both yin and yang forces.

However, focusing on enhancing a single force would yield better results.

For instance, one pearl could be used to enhance yang while the other enhanced yin.

This was precisely why fusing two Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls together produced superior results.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, only one day remained before the gates of the September Divine Realm opened.

During this period, all manner of rumors continued to spread.

Some said that on the very first day, Chu Haoyan had already fused a Strong Star-level Yin-Yang Destiny Pearl.

And today, there were even reports that Chu Ruoshi and Chu Zhiyuan — childhood sweethearts — had fused a Half Moon-level Yin-Yang Destiny Pearl.

These were all rumors, and no one knew the truth of the matter.

But right now, when Chu Feng and Chu Yue's two Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls were placed together, the aura within them began to shift.

Within each of the two Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls, a massive moon appeared.

"Oh my — could this be the legendary Full Moon?"

Staring at the full moon inside the Yin-Yang Destiny Pearl, Chu Yue's beautiful eyes went wide as saucers. She could hardly believe what she was seeing.

The grades of Yin-Yang Destiny Pearls, from weakest to strongest, were: Faint Star, Strong Star, Half Moon, Full Moon, and Sun and Moon.

Generally speaking, achieving a Strong Star was already considered remarkable. As for the Half Moon — to date, only three pairs within the entire Chu Heavenly Clan had managed that.

But a Full Moon? Never before in the entire Chu Heavenly Clan had anyone accomplished it.

That meant Chu Yue and Chu Feng would become the first pair in the history of the Chu Heavenly Clan to fuse a Full Moon-level Yin-Yang Destiny Pearl. How could she not be excited?

"Sister Chu Yue, I have an idea," Chu Feng suddenly said.

"What idea?" Chu Yue asked.
