Inside the Sword Tomb, Ye Chen, who had been brutally beaten, finally felt relieved when he found that Luo Qingyi really had no intention of continuing to deal with him.
"Elder Qingyi, those in the Heaven-Reaching Realm are too dangerous. You'd better quickly teach me the secret technique to conceal my mental state so it won't be detected."
Luo Qingyi gave a hum.
This secret technique indeed needed to be taught, otherwise, if Ye Chen offended a batch of Heaven-Reaching Realm individuals in the future, it would be troublesome.
After half an hour.
Ye Chen learned the secret technique and looked at Luo Qingyi with flickering eyes.
Luo Qingyi said, "The secret technique was taught by me, it's useless to me. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. If you don't want to get beaten, you'd better be honest."
Ye Chen immediately nodded.
But he was laughing inside.
In fact, he hadn't thought of anything just now.
Luo Qingyi was just bluffing!
Setting that aside, Ye Chen said, "Elder Qingyi, I am now at the Peak of the Yuan Wheel Realm and an Extreme Celestial Seal Spirit Master of the fourth tier. I've also honed sword momentum quite well. Shouldn't I start further refining now?"
In the era of the Nine Heavens Sword God, the Primordial Wheel Realm, Primordial Embryo Realm, and Unity Realm were all part of a major realm. So now Ye Chen has the cultivation technique of the Nine Heavens Sword Manual's fourth layer, which is enough for him to train to the Unity Realm.
Ye Chen remembered very clearly that Luo Qingyi had said, after the sword momentum in the Nine Heavens Sword Manual comes the sword seed!
Sword essence, sword intent, sword body, sword momentum, and then sword seed.
Mentioning cultivation, Luo Qingyi returned to a normal expression, nodded, and said, "Yes, next you need to condense the sword seed. Once the sword seed is successfully condensed, it is equivalent to what others call the Primordial Embryo.
The sword seed is also a sword, a sword hidden inside you, much more powerful than those Primordial Embryos, but wanting to condense the sword seed, in your current state, you are far from ready.
During the condensation of the sword seed, vast energy is needed, especially life essence.
So, either your dormant constitution awakens, or you collect a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "Then it's soon. I'll head to Lingyun Mountain in the next few days to find the Holy Source Grass Master Legs hid, and if my physical origin revives, the problem of condensing the sword seed can be solved."
"As for the Lingyun Mountain matter, confirm it with Tian Can later, let's first talk about the sinister dragon." Luo Qingyi said.
"The sinister dragon is the current emperor, Zhou Potian. My teacher and Ouyang Shang have already confirmed there's an issue with Zhou Potian, but they think now is not the right time to act."
"They are right to consider it this way. What I want to tell you is that the previous judgment was wrong. This sinister dragon has the power of the Heaven-Reaching Realm.
He has separated his physical body from his primordial spirit essence. Therefore, the Dragon Blood Pill refined from his essence blood last time only made us think he was in the Unity Realm.
Once his physical body and primordial spirit essence merge, he will certainly be a top-notch Heaven-Reaching Realm individual. Even with your teacher Yang Tianji, whose combat power is strong with the integration of spirituality and martial arts, he is not his match.
Even with the addition of an Ouyang Shang, they are very likely unable to contend with him."
The integration of spirituality and martial arts is indeed strong.
But the sinister dragon's lineage is also strong.
It's normal for the Heaven-Reaching Realm Yang Tianji with integration of spirituality and martial arts not to be a match for the sinister dragon at the Heaven-Reaching Realm.
"No matter how strong the sinister dragon is, this matter needs to be resolved in the end. Maybe by the time we can deal with him, I will already have the strength to kill him!" Ye Chen said.
"After you condense the sword seed, I will find a way to arrange a meeting between you and the elder of the Dragon Race." Luo Qingyi said.
Ye Chen knew that the elder of the Dragon Race was on the tenth level of the Sword Tomb; he couldn't get up there, and the other party couldn't send even a trace of divine soul down. Since Luo Qingyi said so, it meant that once his sword seed was condensed, there might be other means to make it happen.
Thinking that he would soon be able to meet the elder of the Dragon Race, Ye Chen felt a bit excited.
After all, the Dragon Race is a legendary creature, powerful and mysterious.
Speaking of which, Luo Qingyi reached out and grabbed, pulling Tian Can's two legs that were hiding not far away and threw them beside Ye Chen.
Ye Chen: "..."
Master Legs was really pitiful. Ever since venturing out last time and using the Heaven-Ascending Step, his vitality was severely damaged and was bullied by Elder Qingyi...
Tian Can's two withered long legs stood up.
What Ye Chen said to Luo Qingyi earlier, Tian Can heard it clearly, and yet... Ye Chen wasn't beaten to death, he really was lucky. It's a pity, Tian Can originally wanted to take a peek secretly, but nothing happened.
"Ye Chen, actually, it can not only be on top but also underneath, in front, to the left, and to the right..." Tian Can said meaningfully.
Ye Chen was bewildered.
What do you mean?
Luo Qingyi didn't understand either.
Tian Can didn't dare continue explaining. To truly explain, his only remaining two legs would be chopped to pieces.
The rest, just let Ye Chen figure it out on his own!
Luo Qingyi coldly shouted, "What other arrangements do you have on Lingyun Mountain? Say it again!"
Tian Can replied, "I've already said everything. A super array, although its power isn't as formidable as before, it should still be capable of killing those in the Heaven-Reaching Realm. As for how to enter the array and how to activate its strongest attacks, Ye Chen already knows."
Luo Qingyi stared at Tian Can, saying, "With your previous despicable ways, you don't have other settings?!"
Tian Can immediately got irritated, the yellow hairs on his legs standing on end, and said, "Luo Qingyi, stop slandering me here..."
"Buzz!"
The sound of a sword echoed, and beside Luo Qingyi, a sword appeared, floating in mid-air.
Tian Can's leg hairs, which had stood up, instantly lay flat, muttering, "Back then, aside from diligently working on that big array, everything else was just casually managed... who can remember clearly..."
"..." Ye Chen felt a sense of helplessness internally.
Master Legs is quite the trickster!
Luo Qingyi said, "When he reaches Lingyun Mountain, I'll project the outside situation into the Sword Tomb, can you remember then?"
Master Legs nodded and said, "No problem!"
Ye Chen was somewhat skeptical, but this was the best option, better than fumbling around himself later.
...
At this moment, a group of people arrived at the gates of Kyoto Jiu Long City of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The older individuals emitted strong auras.
The younger members carried an aura of arrogance.
"Elder, I heard that the night before yesterday, Cangxing Martial Arts Academy's Ye Chen caused a tremendous storm in the Capital City?" A tall man with sword-like eyebrows, wearing a robe embroidered with a golden sun, said calmly.
The elder leading the team nodded and said, "That night, even Yang Tianji made an appearance. The Emperor activated the Nine Dragon Array. We're unclear what agreement they reached, but the Emperor didn't pursue the matter further. Perhaps Yang Tianji and the others paid a great price. Tianyi, be cautious of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy's Ye Chen when you go to Lingyun Mountain this time, don't be careless."
That night, the Nine Dragon Array of Jiulong City erupted, and no one knew the truth. They all believed the Emperor activated the array to intimidate Yang Tianji.
A flash of disdain passed through the eyes of the young man as he said, "The sword Ye Chen used to kill Yan Song wasn't his own power. It should have been given to him by Yang Tianji for protection, and such power can't be sustained for long.
Without that terrifying power, in front of me, he's just slightly better than rubbish, killing him, only takes one move!"
Among the crowd.
A woman wearing a long dress, graceful in form, with skin that occasionally peeked through, adorned with various tattoos of poisonous insects, laughed coldly and said, "The Cangxing Martial Arts Academy of the Great Zhou Dynasty has completely declined. Even the first place in the Fengyun Competition can't squeeze into the top ten among the younger generation of our Sect Alliance.
This Ye Chen, strong only in potential, hasn't truly grown yet. He almost crippled himself dealing with a mere Han Qianshan. His current strength is indeed nothing to fear. This time, going to Lingyun Mountain is a perfect opportunity to eliminate this hidden threat!"
This pair of young individuals stood out as the most dazzling talents among the younger generation of the Great Zhou Dynasty Sect Alliance.
The young man, Li Tianyi, was from Haoyang Sect, and his father, Li Jushan, was the leader of Haoyang Sect and the Alliance Leader of the Sect Alliance.
The young woman, Wu Ke, was a disciple cultivated collectively by the elders of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, skilled in poison techniques. The poison developed to target the power of Lingwu Unity came from her.
"Li Tianyi, Wu Ke, you don't need to intervene in matters concerning Ye Chen. Our Spirit Ruins Sect will handle it. He killed our Young Sect Leader; his life must be claimed by Spirit Ruins Sect!" A square-faced man spoke with a rough voice!
Among this group, there was also a man in a red robe with a delicate appearance. It was Dongfang Xiu from the Celestial Sword Sect.
With the Celestial Sword Sect involved in the Demon Suppression Valley incident, encircling Ye Chen and Dragon Guard Centurion Ren Yong, the Celestial Sword Sect has since been disbanded, many executed, but a portion of them were saved by the Sect Alliance.
Dongfang Xiu was captured by the vice president of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, He Dong, and later pawned to the Sect Alliance by Ouyang Shang as a pawn.
As he listened to Li Tianyi and Wu Ke discuss killing Ye Chen, Dongfang Xiu's expression remained unchanged, but he laughed at these idiots in his heart.
He had interacted with Ye Chen...
That perverted Ye Chen, his strength changed daily...
These guys want to kill Ye Chen?
Heh... courting death!
