Chapter 10
[Passing the outer sect trial with no difficulty (Grand Attainment of Phantom Moon): 1/50]
[Passing the outer sect trial with no difficulty (Grand Attainment of Phantom Moon): 2/50]
...…
All the junior brothers and sisters who were watching had long been filled with trust and good feelings for Su Chen.
They agreed with Cao Yun’s brag, so the progress bar was quickly filled.
[Passing the outer sect trial with no difficulty (Grand Attainment of Phantom Moon): 50/50]
When the characters on the virtual interface disappeared, Su Chen felt as if he had an epiphany. Many comprehensions regarding movement techniques flooded into his mind.
Phantom Moon was a movement technique in martial arts.
Su Chen had just cultivated Phantom Moon for a short while and had only reached the Small Attainment.
However, after Cao Yun boasted, he instantly improved to the Grand Attainment of Phantom Moon.
Movement techniques were also a type of martial arts. In layman’s terms, dodging and moving could also show a cultivator’s strength.
The stronger the movement technique, the easier it was to avoid all kinds of attacks.
Movement techniques were also divided into Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, four categories just like martial arts.
Phantom Moon, which Su Chen cultivated, was a yellow-level upper-rank technique.
If one reached Grand Attainment of Phantom Moon, even when facing attacks from all directions, he could find a suitable gap to dodge like a fish swimming in the sea and make use of every possible chance, making it difficult to be injured by other’s sword.
“With my strength, it is certain that I will pass the outer sect trial. However, if I want to pass it without any difficulty, I need to reach Grand Attainment of movement techniques…”
When Cao Yun’s brag came true, Su Chen finally understood.
No difficulty meant passing the outer sect trial with zero difficulties.
It was easy for Su Chen to pass the outer sect trial without any pressure given his current strength.
However, if he wanted to pass it without any difficulty, he would need to use Grand Attainment of yellow-level upper-rank Phantom Moon.
The system shored up his weak point after making the conclusion.
“With Senior Brother Su Chen’s talent and strength, you don’t aim for the reward by participating in the outer sect trial, do you?” Cao Yun asked tentatively.
He was in awe of Su Chen, so he was very careful when asking this question.
Su Chen raised his head and glanced at Cao Yun when hearing that question.
What was this guy thinking again?
Su Chen nodded, indicating that he was not here for the reward.
However, he didn’t give a detailed explanation.
He did not participate in the outer sect trial just for the reward. More importantly, he needed to let the surrounding people brag about him so that he could obtain the corresponding reward.
Of course, he couldn’t say it out loud.
However…
Cao Yun’s eyes lit up when Su Chen nodded in agreement.
The rewards of the outer sect trial were very attractive.
Because each of the top five would be rewarded with a Sea Transformation Pill!
The Sea Transformation Pill could increase the success rate of a Level Nine Qi Gathering Realm cultivator to break through to the Qi Sea Realm by 50%!
It was extremely attractive to Level Nine Qi Gathering Realm cultivators.
However, in Cao Yun’s opinion, a Sea Transformation Pill was not attractive to Su Chen at all.
Although Cao Yun was only a Level Six Qi Gathering Realm cultivator, he was more knowledgeable and experienced than many of his peers.
He had understood a lot of things by flipping through many ancient books in the Great Mystery Sect’s Scripture Pavilion.
He knew that when a cultivator entered the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm, the bottleneck that prevented this cultivator from advancing would disappear!
In other words, as long as Su Chen absorbed and transformed enough spiritual energy, he would be able to break through to the Qi Sea Realm!
He did not need the Sea Transformation Pill to help him break through to the Qi Sea Realm!
That was because his chances of breaking through were 100%!
Under such circumstances, why did he still participate in the outer sect trial?
To become an inner disciple?
No!
If he wanted, he would be able to break through to the Qi Sea Realm very soon and become an inner disciple.
Cao Yun thought about it and could only think of one possibility.
The reason why Senior Brother Su Chen participated in the outer sect trial was entirely for the mysterious stone tablet in the third test!
The third test of the outer sect trial was about talent. The stone tablet was particularly used to test one’s talent.
However, the stone tablet could not only be used to test one’s talent but it could also be used to comprehend many cultivation methods and martial arts.
Whether or not one could comprehend the cultivation methods and martial arts in it depended on one’s talent and providence.
It was rumored that even most of the inner elders of the Great Mystery Sect could not comprehend the information in the stone tablet.
“The reason why Senior Brother Su Chen is going to participate in the outer sect trial must be for the cultivation methods and martial arts in the mysterious stone tablet!”
Cao Yun said with absolute certainty in his mind.
“I heard that if one wants to comprehend the cultivation methods and martial arts from that mysterious stone tablet, it is not only related to one’s talent but also related to one’s providence… Senior Brother Su Chen is a person blessed with great providence. Doesn’t that mean that this time, he…”
Cao Yun kept using his imagination, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
Seeing Cao Yun’s increasingly excited expression, Su Chen knew that this guy must be secretly imagining something again.
However, Cao Yun did not brag at this moment, and the virtual interface did not appear in front of Su Chen.
Therefore, he did not know what was in Cao Yun’s head.
Su Chen shook his head and looked away.
A freak of headcanons like Cao Yun was exactly what he needed now.
Seeing that no one came forward to ask for advice, he stood up and left.
“The black-level lower-rank cultivation methods and martial arts! No! The black-level middle-rank or even the upper-rank cultivation methods and martial arts! With Senior Brother Su Chen’s talent and providence, he will definitely be able to comprehend the black-level middle and upper-rank cultivation methods and martial arts!” Cao Yun said as he could not suppress the excitement in his heart while looking at Su Chen’s disappearing figure.
“Senior Brother Cao, what is the black-level middle and upper-rank?”
“Did Senior Brother Su Chen master some black-level middle and upper-rank cultivation methods and martial arts?”
Hearing this, the few outer sect disciples who were familiar with Cao Yun looked at him in confusion.
Some of the disciples who were about to leave stopped and also looked at him curiously.
Not everyone liked to imagine things crazily just like Cao Yun.
Therefore, they did not understand why Cao Yun said that excitedly.
“Did you all hear it when I asked Senior Brother Su Chen just now?”
Cao Yun looked at them and asked.
They nodded with puzzled faces.
“It’s no secret that Senior Brother Su Chen has stepped into the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm, right?”
Cao Yun continued to ask.
They nodded again, feeling even more confused.
Cao Yun was the one who spread the news that Senior Brother Su Chen had stepped into the Forbidden Stage.
So, why did he ask this question now?
“There is no bottleneck for cultivators who have stepped into the Forbidden Stage to break through to the Qi Sea realm. In other words, Senior Brother Su Chen has no interest in the Sea Transformation Pills that will be given to the top five of the outer sect trial. He definitely has another purpose to participate in the outer sect trial! Other than the mysterious stone tablet in the third test of the outer sect trial, what else will interest a genius like Senior Brother Su Chen? This isn’t the first time that everyone has watched the outer sect trial. You all know that one needs to be talented enough to comprehend the cultivation methods and martial arts from the mysterious stone tablet.”
At this point, Cao Yun paused and slowly swept his gaze across everyone present.
