Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave Chapter 137 The Illuminating Soul Realm (Part Two)

The onlookers couldn't figure out why the man at the Illuminating Soul Realm needed to display such
power when dealing with a weaker opponent.

Generally speaking, a cultivator at the Illuminating Soul Realm could kill an outer disciple with only one
finger.

"That poor outer disciple must be frightened to death," stated one of the bystanders.

After Zen had left, Master Su secluded herself in a pavilion at Drizzle Peak and watched his every
move on the picture slab.

Through the picture slab, Master Su was able to get a better understanding of everything that was
happening with Zen.

"You brat! You are a real troublemaker," Master Su murmured even though Zen was not around to hear
her. Master Su looked northwest and frowned. Even from this distance, she could see the light column
emitted by Vale.

"I don't care whether you survive or not. Since you think you're so good, figure out a solution to the
situation in which you find yourself! He's such a pain in the neck," Master Su said to herself angrily.

Zen was a talented disciple, but he was stubborn and refused to heed her advice.

In fact, none of the masters of Cloud Sect had much control over their disciples. In general, there was
no tangible mentoring relationship between masters and disciples at Cloud Sect. Only some special
disciples could be taught by masters personally.

Therefore, Zen didn't have to listen to Master Su. Her anger at Zen's disobedience was due to her
temperament.



Master Su gritted her teeth as she glared at Zen's resolute face in the picture slab again. After a few
seconds, she left the pavilion and took a flying chariot to Hell Mountain.

On a peak of Hell Mountain, Yan sat on a rock and played with her slingshot. She was immersed in
happy memories, and a sweet smile danced on her lips.

Since her imprisonment on Hell Mountain, Yan had little else to do. Her childhood memories were her
greatest treasure on such days.

All of a sudden, a white light illuminated the mountain-side. Yan turned in the direction of the light.

'Is Vale burning his life vitality? Is he fighting with someone?' Yan focused her eyes on the light and
frowned.

Although the distance was long, Yan was able to see every person on the mountain-side.

First, she glanced at Vale. Then she moved her eyes from Vale to the man standing in front of Vale.

'The man is in a white robe. Is he an outer disciple? Who dares to challenge Vale so boldly?' Yan
wondered.

When Yan saw the face of the outer disciple, her eyes widened in astonishment.

To her surprise, the outer disciple was her beloved elder brother, Zen. "Brother!" Yan couldn't help
shouting though she knew that Zen wouldn't be able to hear her from that distance.

Even though she hadn't met Zen in years, how could she forget her brother's appearance?

'My brother is on Hell Mountain. What is he doing here? When did he arrive?

My cousin, Perrin, did not tell me that Zen was coming to Hell Mountain. Perrin didn't even mention that
my brother is at Cloud Sect. Why didn't he tell me?



And what's happening between my brother and Vale?'

Yan's mind filled with questions. However, she had no time to consider.

The most pressing problem was that Zen was confronting Vale who was at the Illuminating Soul Realm.
As Zen was just an outer disciple, the pressure of Vale's life vitality would kill him soon.

Thinking about this, Yan became anxious and couldn't sit still.

"No, no! Don't hurt my brother!" cried Yan.

Without hesitating, she jumped down.

The moment Yan jumped off the cliff, an energy junction connected by several hexagons appeared
under her.

The energy junction quickly formed a semi-circular wall that blocked Yan.

"Oh, no! The six-pointed star array!"

Yan shouted in disappointment.

Yan knew that a six-pointed star array constrained her on Hell Mountain.

Since Yan had never thought of escaping she had never actively triggered the six-pointed star array
before. At a time of crisis, she did not expect to be stopped by the array.

Yan glanced at Vale and Zen again nervously. Since he was just an outer disciple, Zen couldn't hold on
for long. She had no choice but to rescue her brother.

"I'm gonna tear it apart," said Yan with a determined look.



After a deep breath, Yan focused her energy on her fingertips. Then she stretched her long, slender
fingers and poked the hexagonal energy junction.

Although it seemed as though her action was gentle, she had actually used a tremendous amount of
power.

"Kirik!"

The three connected hexagons broke up at once after Yan's action.

However, the six-pointed star array was a very strong defensive array.

As soon as it had broken, another three hexagons formed, which blocked the gap immediately.

'Darn it! What shall I do?' Yan thought with despair.

She was absolutely frantic by now.

With no other alternatives, Yan repeatedly tried to break the array. However, the six-pointed star array
repaired itself again and again.

No matter how many times Yan tried, the energy emitted by the array didn't diminish. It seemed as
though the array could repeat this cycle endlessly. This situation baffled Yan as she had no way to free
herself and aid Zen.

All this while, Zen stood rooted in his spot. He calmly faced the enormous pressure from Vale. Even
though an ordinary disciple would have been crushed, Zen stood erect with no sign of yielding.

Zen realized this kind of pressure had gone beyond the scope of life energy. It was even stronger than
the life vitality of a nature creature.



'Vale is only releasing a small amount of pressure. And yet, I am having trouble enduring this pressure.
He may have surpassed the level of nature creatures, ' Zen thought.

Zen didn't know that Vale was a strong cultivator at the Illuminating Soul Realm until now.

"Have you not realized the gap in the strength between you and me? I can kill you with just one finger.
Despite my power, it's challenging for me to rescue Yan from Hell Mountain, let alone you. You can't
even get to the top of the Hell Mountain. It's funny that you are so self-righteous," Vale teased Zen.

Several pink lotuses bloomed and withered at Vale's feet, as though in an endless cycle, as he spoke.
