To be honest, even though Ye Chen was speaking quite seriously just now, Yang Tianji didn't believe it.

However, when his Spiritual Power entered Ye Chen's Sea of Consciousness, he had to believe it!

Ye Chen's Sea of Consciousness World was truly boundless.

Ye Chen's spirit patterns were indeed seven groups of the second order!

This completely overturned Yang Tianji's understanding, completely overturned the understanding of the entire Spirit Master Realm!

Even the top geniuses, like Hua Qianxue, their Sea of Consciousness World, at the beginning, is also limited in size.

When one reaches Yang Tianji's level, the Sea of Consciousness World can already be described as vast, but compared to Ye Chen's, it's simply like a child's play.

Ye Chen's Sea of Consciousness... is indescribably vast.

The larger the Sea of Consciousness, the more Spiritual Power it can accommodate, and the higher its upper limit.

Every Spirit Master, besides cultivating Spiritual Power, casting spirit patterns, nurturing spirit seals, must spend a lot of time expanding the Sea of Consciousness World.

But Ye Chen... doesn't need to expand the Sea of Consciousness World at all, which is a huge advantage!

Putting the Sea of Consciousness World aside.

How long has Ye Chen been in the Spirit Martial Division?

Less than two months!

In two months, being able to sketch seven strands of spirit patterns would be considered a genius.

But Ye Chen.

An entire seven groups of spirit patterns!

If spirit seals were to be condensed, he would already be a Celestial Seal Spirit Master.

Moreover, directly becoming a second-order Celestial Seal Spirit Master...

No, a second-order Extreme Celestial Seal Spirit Master!

Before the spirit patterns condense the spirit seal, they can only be presented in the state of the first order... Ye Chen broke this understanding...

Yang Tianji was unable to recover from this shock for a long time.

Ye Chen also roughly knew how amazing his situation was, so he quietly waited for Yang Tianji to adjust his mood.

It took over half a quarter of an hour before Yang Tianji took a deep breath.

His expression became extremely serious, and he said, "Who else have you told about this matter?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "For now, only the teacher knows."

Luo Qingyi knows, but Luo Qingyi is not an outsider.

Yang Tianji nodded and said, "Remember, you must never mention this to outsiders, otherwise it will surely bring countless disasters."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Teacher, I understand."

"Open your Sea of Consciousness again." Yang Tianji said solemnly.

Ye Chen did as told.

Immediately afterward, Yang Tianji's hands formed various seals, and his Spiritual Power surged into Ye Chen's Sea of Consciousness, transforming into strands of spirit patterns that interwove and gradually turned into an array.

After Yang Tianji arranged the setup, his Spiritual Power withdrew from Ye Chen's Sea of Consciousness and instructed, "I've set up a protective Spirit Seal in your Sea of Consciousness to prevent others from spying on it with their Spiritual Power. You should use your Spiritual Power to nourish this seal every once in a while.

Unless a fifth-order or higher Celestial Seal Spirit Master takes action, no one else can discover your secret."

"Thank you, Teacher!" Ye Chen cupped his hands in gratitude.

Yang Tianji said, "Initially, I didn't want you to walk the path of an Extreme Spirit Master because nurturing the spirit seal of an Extreme Spirit Master is very troublesome. But your Sea of Consciousness is unimaginably vast, and your Spiritual Power is abundant, so there's no need to worry about that. Continue outlining spirit patterns, and when you reach the nine groups of spirit patterns, I will personally condense your first spirit seal guardian."

"Teacher, is the limit for a Celestial Seal Spirit Master only nine groups of spirit patterns? Can it go up to ten?" Ye Chen asked.

Yang Tianji shook his head and said, "The matter of ten groups of spirit patterns condensing a spirit seal is restricted by the Heaven and Earth Dao. Even if your Sea of Consciousness is special, it can't break the rules of the Heaven and Earth Dao."

Ye Chen understood, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Teacher, is there really no way to restore Senior Brother's cultivation?"

A touch of sorrow appeared in Yang Tianji's expression as he said, "I will find a way."

Judging by Yang Tianji's expression and tone, Ye Chen knew it was unlikely to change.

Ye Chen clenched his fists.

This matter is closely related to him.

He must take responsibility for this!

Whenever there's a chance, he must seize it!

No matter how difficult it is, he must do it!

Next, Ye Chen briefly learned about the current situation between the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy and the Celestial Sword Sect.

A few days ago, a great battle erupted in the Unparalleled County between the two, causing a great deal of chaos.

To maintain stability in the county capital, the commandery governor's mansion stepped in and strictly prohibited similar large-scale battles from happening again. If you must fight, it must be one-on-one, with life or death on your own shoulders.

At this stage, it's not suitable for Ye Chen to fight anymore; the priority is to heal!

After parting from Yang Tianji, Ye Chen immediately returned to the courtyard full of girlish charm, took out two pieces of lower-grade Primordial Stones, held them in his hands, and operated the second layer cultivation technique of the Nine Heavens Sword Manual to refine the energy of the Primordial Stones!

Immediately.

Ye Chen frowned and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood once again.

Now is not the time for cultivation.

Therefore, Ye Chen chose to control his consciousness to enter the Sea of Consciousness and attempt to operate the Thousand Spirits Technique to cultivate Spiritual Power.

Similarly, as soon as he operated the Thousand Spirits Technique, his head felt like it would explode with piercing pain, feeling dizzy.

"Five days ago, I went to Unparalleled County to seize that poison and return to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy. Although I went through several battles, Celestial Sword Sect's people didn't hurt me. My injuries mainly resulted from that brief fusion of the spiritual and martial.

It seems that using the mysterious warm current to fuse Spiritual Power, Sword Essence, and Qi Blood was the wrong approach. Even if my body's origin has awakened, I can't continue doing so. I need to genuinely cultivate the method of spiritual and martial unity in the future."

Ye Chen muttered to himself a few words and then entered the world of the Sword Tomb.

"Elder Qingyi."

He greeted Luo Qingyi.

Luo Qingyi snorted coldly and said, "You've revealed all your secrets, aren't you afraid Yang Tianji might harbor ill intentions towards you?"

Ye Chen shook his head.

He had considered these things and didn't just blurt it out impulsively.

"When others treat me sincerely, why should I suspect them of treachery? Moreover, what I revealed is related to the integration of spirit and martial arts, which requires a teacher to guide me. If I were to be secretive, it might backfire."

Luo Qingyi still sneered and said, "I almost thought you were going to tell him about the Sword Tomb too."

"The matter of the Sword Tomb involves the Nine Heavens Sword God and Elder Qingyi, so I naturally wouldn't make arbitrary decisions. My Sea of Consciousness is my own business, and I can make my own decisions about it," Ye Chen said.

"You've grown capable, daring to talk back to me!" Luo Qingyi's words were clearly uttered through gritted teeth.

Ye Chen said plainly, "Elder Qingyi, you've misunderstood. I still respect you, but not everything can be asked of you. I need to learn to make my own decisions about which path to take and where to go.

If I can't even manage this, then I cannot become a true powerhouse!"

Luo Qingyi did not continue the topic.

After all, what Ye Chen said did seem to make some sense.

Forget it, it's not worth arguing with this stubborn donkey.

"You're not suitable for cultivating Sword Yuan and Spiritual Power right now. You can divert some of your energy towards the Sword Control Celestial Scripture and Sword Intent. During this period of recovery, try to comprehend the remaining Earth Sword Intent and True Wood Sword Intent and master the Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique," Luo Qingyi said.

Despite being angry.

There are some things that needed to be pointed out.

To prevent Ye Chen from messing around again and causing who knows what trouble.

"Hmm, thank you for your guidance, Elder Qingyi. I will start then," Ye Chen said, as he had originally planned when he entered the Sword Tomb.

Ye Chen walked towards a tombstone, his internal Sword Yuan began to circulate, and the tombstone started to evolve into a World of Sword Intent.

Then, he chose the Earth Sword Intent.

"Roar!"

After the tombstone was refined, a strand of Celestial Demon remnant soul suppressed by it transformed into a large bird with four wings. Demonic Qi rolled over the bird's body, with sharp cold lights slashing out from its wings!

Ye Chen gathered what little Sword Yuan he had within him, unleashed a murderous sword stance, soared into the air, and struck out with a sword from the past age!

The sword aimed at the four-winged bird carried an indomitable and resolute aura, brimming with killing intent.

Although his condition was not good.

The Celestial Demon remnant soul in this second layer of the Sword Tomb was at most equivalent to the Peak of True Essence Realm, so there was no need to exert too much effort.

With one sword, he slew the four-winged bird, sheathed his sword as he landed, and continued to comprehend the power of the Earth Sword Intent.

......

"Tian Can, get down here."

Luo Qingyi appeared in the area where Tian Can was staying.

The two dangling legs on the peak swung downward.

"Tsk tsk, you certainly look upset, did that Ye Chen kid provoke you again? Hahaha!" Tian Can's legs let out a cheeky laugh, and whenever he was smug, his leg hair would float proudly.

"Luo Qingyi, could it be that you've taken a liking to Ye Chen? If so, I can help you talk to him, though Ye Chen does seem somewhat clueless, once Master Legs gives him some guidance, he'll surely get it soon enough."

Ye Chen had called him Master Legs a few times.

Tian Can had grown fond of the title.

He even started referring to himself as Master Legs.

"If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll chop you up!" Luo Qingyi shouted angrily, "Ye Chen's physique is almost ruined; do you have any solutions?"

"What?!"

Tian Can was shocked and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Luo Qingyi briefly explained the situation.

Even though she had discussed with the old folks on the upper layers of the Sword Tomb without any good solutions, she decided to ask Tian Can as a last resort.

Back then, leveraging his speed, this guy had traveled to many places and knew a lot; he might just have a solution.

After a moment, Tian Can asked, "Where is this place?"

"Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Which region is the Great Zhou Dynasty located in?"

"I heard it's the Eastern Region!"

"Which province of the Eastern Region?"

"I don't know!" Luo Qingyi was angry again.

Why are you asking me all these random questions when I'm here to seek your advice?

She had always stayed within the Sword Tomb. What Ye Chen had encountered, she knew. What Ye Chen hadn't, she also didn't know.

Tian Can said, "I once traveled through the Eastern Region and discovered a Holy Source Grass at a place called Lingyun Mountain in the Cangzhou area of the Eastern Region. Unfortunately, it wasn't mature at the time; I planned to pick it later.

But before that came, I was cut down, leaving only these two legs, trapped in the Sword Tomb. By my estimation, that Holy Source Grass has withered and regrown ten times by now, and it should be in the mature stage.

Have Ye Chen go and pick the Holy Source Grass; it works wonders for restoring the essence of life!"

Luo Qingyi's gaze turned icy.

This was something from tens of thousands of years ago.

Dare you bring it up now?

"The growth cycle of Holy Source Grass is a thousand years. After withering, it will continue to grow, but once picked, it won't grow again. Are you sure that after almost ten thousand years, it hasn't been picked?"

Tian Can said, "The area where the Holy Source Grass grows has a naturally formed array from the forces of heaven and earth. Even after ten thousand years, that force wouldn't dissipate.

Even if someone discovered the anomaly and knew about the Holy Source Grass, they couldn't pick it.

Because, at the time, I even enlisted a very powerful Spirit Master to set up a super array around that Holy Source Grass using the self-sustaining force of heaven and earth. Unless one knows the Heaven-Ascending Step, they can't get in."

"Draw me a map of Lingyun Mountain!" Luo Qingyi urged.
