"Half-step to the Heavenly Dao Realm!" Li Xingyun looked at Yuan Tiangang in front of him with astonishment. His aura had become so powerful that it was heart-pounding, as if it had surpassed the limits of human beings.

"You have practiced the Nine Nether Mysterious Heaven Divine Art?" There was a hint of disbelief in Li Xingyun's voice. He was very familiar with this technique. It was an extremely advanced technique. It was definitely not an easy thing to be able to practice to such a level.

However, Yuan Tiangang's transformation clearly went beyond this. Li Xingyun stared at him intently. Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he frowned and said in a deep voice, "No... relying solely on the Nine Netherworld Mysterious Heavenly Art isn't enough for you to reach this realm! You also created the Weapon God Altar to strengthen your body!"

Yuan Tiangang trembled slightly when he heard Li Xingyun's words, but he did not explain. Instead, he immediately knelt on one knee and bowed his head, saying: "Your Highness, I have made decisions without authorization. I hope Your Highness will punish me!"

Li Xingyun felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw this. He quickly dodged to Yuan Tiangang's side, reached out and helped him up, saying, "Hey! Why are you doing this? No matter how many difficulties there are, I will find a way to solve them!"

Yuan Tiangang slowly raised his head and looked at Li Xingyun's distressed expression. A warm feeling surged in his heart. He said solemnly, "To relieve His Highness's worries, even if I die a thousand times, it is worth it!"

There was a loud bang, a deep, muffled sound that seemed to come from deep within Yuan Tiangang's body, as if something had suddenly exploded within him. Immediately afterwards, the shackles that had been restraining Yuan Tiangang's cultivation shattered with the loud noise, scattering into countless fragments.

As the shackles shattered, a surge of spiritual energy erupted from Yuan Tiangang's body like a flood. This spiritual energy, like a giant beast that had been suppressed for a long time, once freed from its constraints, displayed its astonishing power and quantity. At the same time, some energy that Li Xingyun could not understand at all also flowed into Yuan Tiangang's body along with this spiritual power.

Faced with such a massive energy onslaught, Yuan Tiangang remained remarkably calm. He slowly closed his eyes, as if completely absorbed in this powerful energy. As his mind gradually calmed, the knot that had been tangling in his heart was finally untied. With his heart untied, Yuan Tiangang's cultivation naturally advanced, like a boat sailing smoothly down the river.

However, this sudden change did not escape the eyes of Wen Taiji and Ye Qingcheng. They both sensed this unusual energy fluctuation almost at the same moment, and in a flash, they appeared in front of Li Xingyun like a ghost.

When they saw that the person who had made the breakthrough was Yuan Tiangang, Wen Taiji finally felt relieved, and his previously tense nerves relaxed a little. However, Ye Qingcheng's reaction was different from Wen Taiji's. In addition to surprise, her eyes were filled with more horror.

Ye Qingcheng couldn't understand how Yuan Tiangang had managed to leap from the Transcendence Realm to the Heavenly Dao Realm in such a short period of time! This speed of breakthrough was simply incredible and unbelievable! Even Ye Qingcheng, who always considered herself a genius, couldn't help but feel ashamed when faced with such a breakthrough speed.

Li Xingyun's gaze was like a calm lake, lightly sweeping over Wen Taiji and the people beside him, as if they were just insignificant dust in the air. His attention quickly shifted away from them, as if they didn't exist at all.

Li Xingyun leisurely walked to the desk, slowly sat down, and then quietly waited for Yuan Tiangang's breakthrough to complete. He did not let Ye Qingcheng and the other person leave, because he knew that breaking through the Heavenly Dao Realm was a first for him, and no one knew how big a commotion it would cause. Leaving these two people here would at least ensure his own safety.

Time slipped away in silence, each second seeming to stretch uncomfortably long. Yuan Tiangang's aura began to grow increasingly mysterious, gradually blending in with the surroundings. It was a strange feeling, as if he were gradually merging into this world, becoming a part of it.

Li Xingyun observed all this intently. He noticed that Yuan Tiangang's state after breaking through the Heavenly Dao Realm was completely different from his state after breaking through other realms. Once he successfully broke through, Yuan Tiangang's aura would merge with the heaven and earth, making his presence impossible to detect with spiritual consciousness. At least, Li Xingyun couldn't do that yet. If he closed his eyes at this moment, then in this study, he would only be able to sense himself.

Finally, after a long wait, Yuan Tiangang gently exhaled and slowly opened his eyes. His eyes seemed to hold endless mysteries, sometimes resembling the vast sky, sometimes the deep abyss of blood. However, these visions lasted only a moment, so fast that it was almost impossible to grasp. If Li Xingyun hadn't been keeping a close eye on Yuan Tiangang, he probably wouldn't have noticed this brief change.

"Your Highness!" Yuan Tiangang bowed respectfully to Li Xingyun, then turned around and clasped his fists towards Wen Taiji and Ye Qingcheng, saying, "Thank you, both guardians!"

Seeing this, Wen Taiji quickly waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor! No need to be so polite!" After that, he looked around and felt that there was nothing else for him to do here, so he said goodbye to Li Xingyun, "Your Highness, since the matter has been handled, I will take my leave first."

Li Xingyun nodded in agreement. Wen Taiji turned and left, while Ye Qingcheng said nothing, not even glancing at Li Xingyun. She turned and walked out of the study, leaving Li Xingyun and Yuan Tiangang alone in the study.

Li Xingyun looked at Yuan Tiangang and suddenly asked, "You were the one who arranged the matter between Nanman and Beiming, right?"

When Yuan Tiangang heard this, he was not surprised at all. He just nodded and admitted frankly: "Yes!"

Seeing this, Li Xingyun's doubts immediately dissipated. He had long suspected Yuan Tiangang's true strength, and now that he knew his cultivation level, many things that had previously puzzled him could now be explained.

"Yes!" Li Xingyun responded, and then continued, "Arrange some experts to transport the confiscated gold and silver back as soon as possible. Also, the civil unrest in the Western Xia Demon Kingdom seems to involve foreign demons. We don't have much time left."
