Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 194 — Breakthrough
Zhou Yuan clenched his hands loudly "I can't let any of that happen, I have to prevent it!"
Zhou Yuan was already unconcerned about his revenge, all he thought when the chaos was really happening was the safety of his family.
Yun Feiyu looked at Zhou Yuan's fiery determination and he had already guessed Zhou Yuan would think so.
The celestial fruit was not only the most precious resource in Zhou Yuan's world alone even if it was growing in Yun Feiyu's world right now, it was not only the most precious resource in Zhou Yuan's world, he would be the snatch of many people even Yun Feiyu also wanted to have it.
The benefits of the heavenly fruit for a warrior are very high, higher than the resources of any world. A person who eats even one of the fruits will be sure to be a great and unparalleled swordsman.
Without being explained by Zhou Yuan as well, Feiyu had already guessed that the appearance of the heavenly fruit in a world was not a gift but a disaster.
"Yuan'er, rather than you worrying about many things you better strengthen your strength first. Without strength you can't do anything, the higher your strength the more things you can change..."
Yun Feiyu's words awakened Zhou Yuan, now he had a strong motivation to practice in order to protect his family.
Yun Feiyu smiled then held her chin up as she looked at Zhou Yuan, "Yuan'er, I originally thought you were a bad person because there was a murderous aura in your body but it seemed like I had misjudged it, as long as you're here and you tell me things, you're always worried about other people's safety versus yours."
Yun Feiyu still recalled the reason Zhou Yuan hurriedly wanted to return to his world because of worrying about the situation of the academy, when he heard the heavenly fruit would grow again Zhou Yuan also returned worrying about others.
It was actually quite natural for those who had family, friends, or loved ones to worry about others but people who had a murderous aura like Zhou Yuan usually did not have such an attitude.
Zhou Yuan could not answer, he had only this first felt how to have a family and loved ones.
Zhou Yuan who was originally filled with hatred and revenge for being killed in his first life now his gaze began to shift with time especially after feeling how the family affection, especially after feeling the love of the family, for him their safety was far more important than his revenge.
Yun Feiyu then got up from her seat, "Yuan'er, you don't need to worry, after this I will also help you become strong. You take it easy." Yun Feiyu clenched his hands excitedly, trying to console Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan tried to smile, "Thank you Auntie, you've helped me a lot here."
Yun Feiyu nodded slowly, he then made a portal but this time his goal was where the lake returned. Yun Feiyu let Zhou Yuan alone in there because right now the young man was in need of composure to break through to the light realm.
After Yun Feiyu left him, Zhou Yuan did not waste any more time, he immediately took a seat cross-legged and started trying to open the gate of light again.

"Ah, this sensation is almost forgotten..."
Zhou Yuan smiled widely and was full of excitement as his body exuded an aura of great power after successfully breaking through the light realm.
Of course Zhou Yuan realized that his achievements now occurred due to several factors, first because he was reborn by having memories of his first life then second, Zhou Yuan had the body of the Sky King, first because he was reborn by having memories of his first life and then second, Zhou Yuan had the body of the Sky King, the special body that made him able to increase strength quickly while the last factor was because during the breakthrough to the light realm, Zhou Yuan had abundant resources.
The process of opening the light gate that should have taken up to tens of years could have Zhou Yuan complete it with just a few months.
Zhou Yuan became even more excited, he could not wait to show his current strength.
Zhou Yuan wanted to demonstrate and try his new strength but just as he was about to do so suddenly from the void space a portal appeared and Yun Feiyu came out from there.
"Ah, Yuan'er, you've already broken through, huh?" Yun Feiyu showed off her sweet smile as she realized Zhou Yuan's new strength.
Zhou Yuan smiled "Auntie, is there something that brought Auntie here?"
"Hm, at first I just wanted to deliver food for you as usual but seeing that your training is done, do you want to go home for a while or rehearse again?"
Zhou Yuan was actually eager to meet his three girls but upon thought back he could do that next time. Despite only reaching the Light Realm, Zhou Yuan still wanted to practice and strengthen himself.
Yun Feiyu nodded, he could see there were many Moon Orchids and Sun Orchids left, he could see, not to mention that Zhou Yuan still had many embroidered gems that had not been worn so there was a possibility that Zhou Yuan could increase his strength again.
"Do you know how to increase your power next, Yuan'er? In the light realm his training was very different than in the previous realm."
Zhou Yuan understood what Feiyu meant, a person who had reached the Light Realm was no longer a stage as his level calculation but rather the number of meridians that were open.
A swordsman of light was required to open up all the meridians in his body, the more meridians that opened up the stronger he would become.
There are 12 meridians visible when someone managed to open the gate of light, the opening of this meridian is not much different from the effort to open the gate of light, it takes martial comprehension and deep energy in order to successfully open it.
In the martial world of the Northern Mainland Continent, almost no swordsman had managed to completely open 12 meridians, either, emperors like Jiang Qisha alone who was the number one swordsman in the Moon Empire only managed to open 8 meridians in his body after living for so long.
There was also Xiao Fan or Yue Jian who were both warriors at the light realm with 7 meridians exposed. Chu Guyu's 6 meridians were open as well as Jiang Long's who was below it was with 5 meridians open.
Zhou Yuan himself in his first life was a powerful swordsman who equaled Xiao Fan and Yue Jian who was a light realm swordsman with 7 open meridians.
A warrior at that level is highly respected in the martial world and can only be counted on the fingers.
If only he had not faced hundreds of opponents, he might have won against Huang Zhang, it was just that Huang Zhang had managed to kill him for cooperating with 4 high-level warriors along with hundreds of his men.
Zhou Yuan was confident that in this second life he could achieve his first-life strength, which Zhou Yuan needed now in addition to the time in the process, of course the resources to speed up his training.
