Chapter 257: True Intent!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

When Ye Yuan said this, Nanfeng Ruoqing's and Nanfeng Zhirou's hair stood on its ends!

What kind of concept was the Endless World's strongest powerhouse?

With their present realm, it was simply unimaginable!

"Endless World's strongest powerhouse? You actually dared to say that!" Cold laughter came from the side.

Ye Yuan looked over only to see a young man with a handsome face like carved jade, around 18 or 19 years old. This person was precisely Tian Yu who had nothing better to do too.

After he left Elder Feng's place, he decided to come and take a look at the other challenger of the Nine Heavens Road, Long Tang. But he did not think that he would hear Ye Yuan talk nonsense right after reaching here.

Ye Yuan only smiled and did not give any explanations. "Haha, this Senior Apprentice Brother, just take it as a joke."

Since Ye Yuan said that, Tian Yu could not really pursue it.

To become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse was the lifetime aspiration of all martial artists. Ye Yuan's prediction sounded somewhat baffling, but in reality, it did not hurt the important essentials.

Tian Yu sized up Ye Yuan. He seemed to feel something and asked, "You're Ye Yuan?"

This time, it was Ye Yuan's turn to be stunned. "Senior Apprentice Brother knows me?"

"Looks like my guess was indeed correct. I'm called Tian Yu. You should have heard of me," Tian Yu said coolly.

Such words that leaked overbearingness, only a genius like Tian Yu dared to say it.

While it was rather wild, this was a fact. Ye Yuan had indeed heard of him before.

Ye Yuan's expression became slightly cold. He did not think that this young man in front of him was actually the number one on the core disciples' rankings, Tian Yu!

"So, it's Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu. Pardon me," Ye Yuan cupped his fists and greeted.

Yesterday, he heard about this Tian Yu's prowess, but he did not expect to encounter him today. Except, why did he come here?

Towards Ye Yuan's attitude, Tian Yu was slightly displeased.

Normally speaking, when newcomer disciples met him for the first time, the majority would show an enthralled and admiring look. But Ye Yuan did not.

This was an exchange of equals.

Although he made it past the Nine Heavens Road and his talent was outstanding, he was only Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm after all. Did he think that he could already match him equally?

As a newcomer, shouldn't he be more humble?

It will be hard for this person to amount to anything!

Tian Yu gave Ye Yuan such an appraisal in his heart.

Skymaple always taught Tian Yu to not be self-conceited because of his talent. Otherwise, his future accomplishments would definitely be limited!

This was not talking about defects in personality affecting cultivation, but a personality where one acted in undue confidence of their own ability would easily look down on everything. Such a person would also easily suffer setbacks. Some people become braver in the face of setbacks, while extremely few geniuses who was conceited because of their talent would grow up. This was because they could not endure setbacks.

While Tian Yu had an air of arrogance, he was never cavalier. When his strength was low, he knew how to respect seniors.

Judging others with himself, Tian Yu naturally felt that Ye Yuan was relying on his talent to look down on others.

Tian Yu only nodded and did not say much. Instead, he pointed at Long Tang and asked, "You said that he can become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse. Why? Just based on that one punch? I also saw that punch earlier. Although the power was decent, isn't it too ridiculous to say that he can become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse based on that?"

If Ye Yuan said that he could become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse, Tian Yu would definitely shrug it off with a laugh, and then leave with a flick of his sleeves.

Such a wildly arrogant person was not worth his, Tian Yu's, attention.

But Ye Yuan talked about Long Tang earlier and not himself. This made Tian Yu rather curious.

Ye Yuan did not think that Tian Yu actually took it for real. He smiled and said, "Does Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu really want to know?"

Tian Yu said, "Of course! I want to know whether or not you're talking nonsense or can you back your words."

Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, "Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu also trains in the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art, right?"

"That's right. You're not saying that my sword intent can't be compared to his fist art, right?" Tian Yu heard the implied meaning behind Ye Yuan's words.

However, Ye Yuan smiled and said, "From a certain standpoint, I'm afraid that Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's sword intent really can't match his fist intent!"

When Ye Yuan said this, not only Tian Yu, even Nanfeng Ruoqing and Nanfeng Zhirou felt that it was rather nonsensical.

Tian Yu had a profound understanding of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art. How could it possibly not compare to the Long Tang who had just cleared the Nine Heavens Road?

Tian Yu did not become angry. Instead, he asked, "From what standpoint?"

If what Ye Yuan said was reasonable, he would naturally be able to tell. If it was bullshit, then he had no need to continue chatting.

"Senior Apprentice Brother, ask yourself, how does your sword intent compare to Forefather You Wuya?"

"Of course, it is far from comparable! Forefather You Wuya was a genius. The sword intent I have comprehended currently is at most 60% of his. Why? You're not going to say that Long Tang can match Forefather You Wuya, right?"

"Whether he can match or not, I don't know. But in the future, he perhaps has the chance to reach Forefather You Wuya's height! Don't get anxious, Senior Apprentice Brother, listen to me. Although our predecessors' ways are good, that which belongs to yourself is the strongest! Maybe Senior Apprentice Brother isn't willing to listen to this, but your Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent will never reach Forefather You Wuya's realm no matter how much you train! Because this sword intent was created by him! On the other hand for Long Tang, his fist intent has already broken off from the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art, and he found a martial path which belongs to him alone! If he can continuously perfect this path, his future accomplishments would at least be Forefather You Wuya's height!"

Ye Yuan paused for a moment before continuing, "Long Tang's fist intent already has the elementary form of true intent!"

Tian Yu was still showing a disdainful expression before this. But towards the end, his face was completely solemn.

All the way until he heard the two words, 'true intent.' Tian Yu stared at Ye Yuan completely dumbstruck!

In the entire Endless World, the number of martial artists who possessed true intent could be counted on one hand! That martial artists who possessed true intent were all legends!

According to Tian Yu's knowledge, only those few overwhelmingly powerful existences in the Northern Domain possessed their own true intent!

But now, Ye Yuan was telling him that that plain-looking young man actually possessed true intent!

Although it was only the elementary form, it was sufficiently terrifying in the entire Southern Domain!

Nobody could clearly describe what Heavenly Dao was, but martial artists could understand the Heavenly Dao belonging to them through certain things!

True intent was one of those things!

The Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent was actually a type of true intent! Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword was similarly a type of true intent!

Once someone comprehended a true intent to the extremities, shattering the void and ascending to the Divine Realm was a simple matter.

Hence, that was why Ye Yuan said that Long Tang could possibly become the Endless World's most powerful person in the future!

Although Tian Yu was powerful now, he was walking another person's path.

If he could not comprehend a true intent belonging to himself, then it was impossible for him to ever surpass You Wuya!

The true intent that other people comprehended, no matter how profound one's understanding of it was, it was impossible to surpass the predecessor.

Learning other people's stuff was actually a type of shortcut. But this kind of shortcut could easily bring one to a dead end.

Of course, if one did not learn anything and wanted to comprehend true intent from thin air, it would be impossibly difficult. Unless they were a monstrous person like Ye Yuan who comprehended a type of true intent from watching the scene of falling petals filling the skies.

Furthermore, Ye Yuan obviously would not tell Tian Yu that the Azure Dipper Floating Zero Sword Intent from fusing the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent and Falling Flower Floating Zero Sword Intent was already equipped with the elementary form of a Supreme True Intent!

Chapter 258: Breaking Fantasy

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

A supreme true intent was an even higher level existence than a true intent!

Apart from a Divine King that was piled up using medicinal pills like Ji Qingyun, virtually every Divine King powerhouse had their own supreme true intent.

Some Divine Kings even had more than one type of supreme true intent. Such as the Spirit Bristle Divine King. He alone had comprehended four kinds of supreme true intent!

These four kinds of supreme true intent were comprehended from the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art.

Hence, when he displayed Nine Suns Burning Heaven, its might was so incredible that it was unimaginable!

But the current Ye Yuan had not even comprehended a type of supreme true intent thoroughly. It could be seen just how great the disparity between him and those pinnacle level Divine Kings was.

However, it was already very incredible for Ye Yuan to be able to comprehend the elementary form of a supreme true intent when he was re-cultivating the martial path.

One had to know that he basically did not comprehend any dog-fart supreme true intent in his previous life.

Just based on this point, he was no different from the other Endless World martial artists. To be able to comprehend a supreme true intent at the Essence Qi Realm was ultimately because of his monstrous perception.

On this aspect, Long Tang's comprehension ability was not even on the same level when compared to Ye Yuan.

Of course, Tian Yu did not even know what supreme true intent was. Because nobody in the Endless World had ever comprehended a supreme true intent before!

Perhaps there were some who comprehended supreme true intent in the Divine Realm after shattering the void. But those people were no longer in the Endless World. Furthermore, the chances of that were so meager that it was negligible.

There were numerous Lower Planes. Every day, countless people ascended to the Divine Realm. However, there might not even be a single person who could comprehend a supreme true intent among 10 million people.

From this, it could be seen how hard to come by supreme true intent was!

If not for supreme true intent, how could Ye Yuan mobilize heaven and earth essence energy with Spirit Condensation Realm strength?

That was resonance with Heavenly Dao!

When Tian Yu heard Ye Yuan's words, the shock in his heart could not be any greater!

"How do you know that that is the elementary form of a true intent? Could you have comprehended it too?" Tian Yu could not resist asking.

Ye Yuan replied nonchalantly, "Of course."

Even though he was already prepared, hearing Ye Yuan say it so naturally, Tian Yu still felt that it was too incredible.

The tiny Tranquil Cloud Sect actually gave birth to two peerless geniuses who possessed the elementary form of a true intent at once!

If they could completely comprehend true intent in the future, wouldn't the Tranquil Cloud Sect become the number one great sect in the Endless World?

Tian Yu instinctively felt that Ye Yuan only comprehended the elementary form of a true intent too. After all, true intent was too difficult to comprehend. With Ye Yuan's age, comprehending the elementary form of a true intent was already very heaven-defying. How could it be possible to comprehend true intent fully?

Tian Yu obviously did not know that the reason why Long Tang could comprehend the elementary form of a true intent was entirely because of that one finger before Ye Yuan left and not because of the Nine Heavens Road!

Think up to here, Tian Yu could not help reproaching himself.

He had always thought that he was an unrivaled peerless genius and would definitely succeed his grandfather's will in the future, bringing the Tranquil Cloud Sect to rise.

But now, the person who comprehended the elementary form of a true intent was actually not him but two disciples who came from the secular world's dojo!

"Walking my own path huh . . ." Tian Yu muttered to himself, his gaze gradually becoming resolved. He looked at Ye Yuan and said, "Alright. I look forward to the match with you two! When the time comes, let me see what is called trudging out your own path!

"That was my wish to begin with," Ye Yuan said with a slight smile.After Tian Yu left, Long Tang also came down from the platform. When he saw Ye Yuan, a trace of embarrassment involuntarily showed on Long Tang's face.

Although his fist intent was comprehended by him, half of the credit fell onto Ye Yuan's head.

Ye Yuan's finger had the intentions of guiding Wu Luochen like a master demonstrating for his disciple; a visual representation.

Since Long Tang comprehended a fist intent belonging to himself from there, Ye Yuan could be considered half his master.

While he knew that Ye Yuan was very monstrous, Long Tang obviously felt very awkward to treat him as his master.

"Haha, that fist just now was pretty decent! To be able to comprehend the elementary form of a true intent is your own abilities. Don't have to feel conflicted." Ye Yuan could evidently see Long Tang's awkwardness and brushed over it with a laugh.

Long Tang's gaze condensed. That trace of embarrassment vanished, and he exclaimed in shock, "Elementary form of true intent? You're saying . . . I comprehended true intent?"

Up till now, Long Tang was still unaware that he had already stepped onto a broad path!

But Long Tang could not be blamed for not knowing. It was that there were truly too few martial artists in the Endless World who possessed true intent. Moreover, martial artists who possessed true intent mostly cherished their possessions. It was naturally impossible for them to display it in public like Ye Yuan. It was also not strange that Long Tang did not know.

However, Long Tang was crystal clear on what comprehending true intent meant to him!

"Not bad! Although it's still very shallow, that fist earlier indeed has the elementary form of true intent already!" Ye Yuan confirmed.

Having received a definite answer, Long Tang's entire body twinged as he started trembling with excitement.

"Hur hur, just now, Ye Yuan was even saying that you can become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse in future!" Nanfeng Zhirou interjected with a giggle.

Long Tang looked at Ye Yuan in surprise. He did not think that his appraisal of himself was actually so high!

Then the problem came, if he was the Endless World's strongest powerhouse, what about Ye Yuan?

Just solely based on that one finger, Long Tang understood the disparity between him and Ye Yuan deeply. If he could even become the Endless World's strongest powerhouse, then what heights would Ye Yuan reach?

If he had already comprehended the elementary form of true intent, didn't that mean that the finger Ye Yuan demonstrated was the real true intent?

Thinking up to here, Long Tang sucked in a cold breath instead.

"Haha, you guys, look how he's so agitated that he can't even talk." Nanfeng Zhirou scoffed.

Long Tang blushed, but Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Comprehending the elementary form of true intent is only the beginning. The future road is still long. One must expend 10 times, 100 times, the effort of ordinary people if they want to create a complete true intent."

Long Tang nodded and said, "En. No matter how tough this road gets, I will walk to the end!"

Long Tang's martial heart was very firm. Ye Yuan could see this point, so he naturally would not say too much.

However, Long Tang was still kind of frustrated in his heart. Other people had to expend 10 times, 100 times, the effort before they could comprehend true intent. What about you?

Truly, comparing people is odious, compare goods and you'll have to toss them!

"Oh, right, your fist intent should belong to a higher order. Got a name yet?" Ye Yuan suddenly asked.

Long Tang shook his head blankly. "I didn't even know that I comprehended true intent. Why would there be a name?"

"Since that's the case, I'll confer you a name." Ye Yuan said.

Logically speaking, one's true intent should be named by themselves. This request from Ye Yuan was rather presumptuous.

But Long Tang knew that Ye Yuan was not a rash person. These words surely had a deeper meaning.

Thinking about it, Long Tang nodded and said, "That's all I could ask for."

"Earlier, I saw that your fist intent easily shattered the miniature fire domain that your opponent constructed. Its might is extremely powerful. I think . . . just call it 'Breaking Fantasy'!" Ye Yuan said smilingly.

"Breaking Fantasy Fist Intent . . ." Long Tang ruminated on this name. His eyes slowly became clear, and he said joyfully, "Many thanks to Senior Apprentice Brother Ye for bestowing the name!"

Breaking Fantasy. These two words contained all of his comprehension! It also pointed out the direction he had to walk from today onwards!

Chapter 259: Instant Victory!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

In the second round, Ye Yuan's opponent was No. 49.

Due to Ye Yuan winning the first round, he automatically entered the victor's group.

The martial artists in the victor's group established the position of core disciples.

While the disciples who were defeated in the first round must undergo the duel in the loser's group. The loser group likewise had to continue competing nonstop, all the way until five failures were produced in the final round. They would undergo a match with the top five outer-sect disciples!

The victors continue to retain core disciple status while the losers would automatically be eliminated and become an outer-sect disciple.

The victor's group had to continue competing similarly, all the way until the top three were born.

The top three disciples would carry out a duel with the last three among the elite disciples. The victor would advance to elite disciple, and the loser became core disciple.

Such a cruel ranking system, no matter how talented you were, you would also not dare to slack off at all.

Just ease up slightly, and you would be surpassed by others.

Even a loafer type core disciple like Ceng Yu would also spend large amounts of time to cultivate. Or else there would come a day where they would be eliminated.

If Ye Yuan won this round again, he would enter the top 50!

Do not look at how there were 200 core disciples. All of those who could win two consecutive rounds and enter the top 50 were all formidable people.

People who try to fish in muddied waters would basically be eliminated in the second round even if they were lucky enough to past the first round.

Ye Yuan's opponent was called Wang Dong, an Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist.

The Pill Barracks' Yang Hao was similarly at the Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm. But his strength was not even worth mentioning when compared to Wang Dong.

Wang Dong's strength was in the upper tier in the Earth Barracks. Other than those Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm and peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm experts, Wang Dong was basically considered the strongest.

In the last grand competition, Wang Dong had a crushing defeat in the second round.

Now that his strength had another substantial improvement, the goal he set for himself this grand competition was to enter the third round!

When he saw the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm Ye Yuan opposite, he could not help feeling greatly relieved.

This was truly a gift from heaven!

"Eh? You're No. 52?" Wang Dong suddenly recalled. Wasn't his opponent the No. 52 who was the first to win in the first round?

Ye Yuan knew what he was thinking about and could not help chuckling and saying, "Of course. Otherwise, why would I be standing here?"

Wang Dong could not help being greatly astonished as he said, "Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength. How were you the first to pass the first round? To actually be faster than Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu?"

"My opponent just happened to have fought with me a few days ago. He knew that he was not my match, so he directly admitted defeat," Ye Yuan did not conceal it and answered honestly.

"Ah? So that's the case. Then your luck is really too good! I reckon that your opponent was one of the weakest few from the Human Barracks, right? Otherwise, with your strength, it would be very hard to win." Wang Dong involuntarily sighed emotionally.

He was sighing that Ye Yuan's luck was good and also that his own luck was good.

To be able to meet such an opponent in the second round, wasn't this heaven's will?

Wang Dong could not help fantasizing that if his luck was slightly better and the opponent he bumped into during the third round was slightly weaker than him, perhaps he could even enter the fourth round!

This would be a historic moment in his life!

Ye Yuan's name was already wide-spread among the Pill Hall elders. But among the core disciples, he was not actually all that famous.

While there were elders finding him non-stop these few days, Ye Yuan had never shown his face. Hence, there were not many people who really recognized Ye Yuan among the core disciples.

Of course, even if Wang Dong knew Ye Yuan, it would not affect his judgment of Ye Yuan's strength.

Trash like Ceng Yu, Wang Dong could settle him with one hand. Although this junior apprentice brother's strength was incredible and could cross ranks to battle, he was clearly still a little too unskilled to try to cross four minor realms to fight him.

How could Ye Yuan not know Wang Dong's little scheme? He did not expose it and just said with a smile, "Yeah. Luck is indeed not bad."

The other party was happy that his luck was good. How was Ye Yuan not filled with emotions with his good luck too?

There were a number of rounds for this sect grand competition. The opponents at the back would become increasingly stronger. If he directly bumped into an expert, the exhaustion would be huge.

Those peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm and half-step Crystal Formation Realm opponents were not so easy to defeat.

And presently, Ye Yuan's goal was none other than Tian Yu and the other two.

Right at this moment, Elder Feng's voice echoed once again, "Round two begins now!"

Ye Yuan and Wang Dong saluted each other. The second round officially began!

After saluting, Wang Dong did not move. He stood with his hands behind his back and said generously, "Junior Apprentice Brother, make a move first. I'm afraid that after I make a move, you won't have the chance anymore."

Perhaps he felt somewhat apologetic for coming across such a weak foe, Wang Dong felt that Ye Yuan should attack first.

Ye Yuan did not expect Wang Dong to be so generous to pass the initiative to him. He could not help being stupefied as he asked, "You sure?"

Wang Dong nodded. "Of course! I, Wang Dong, never go back on my words!"

Ye Yuan said uncertainly, "Then, I won't be courteous."

As his voice fell, Ye Yuan's figure instantly transformed into nine.

"Nine Swords Stance!"

Ye Yuan gave a light cry. Nine streaks of swordlight flew out disorderly and headed straight for Wang Dong.

Wang Dong still had the bearing of an expert in the beginning, but when he saw the nine sword beams blotting out the skies and earth as they flew over, he immediately cried bitterly.

If he took the initiative, he could still tussle with Ye Yuan for a while.

But how could Wang Dong ward off Ye Yuan's big killing move from a defensive position?

One had to know when Ye Yuan was still at the Essence Qi Realm back then, he once used this move to force Yuan Fei back!

Now that Ye Yuan was already at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, how could the Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realm Wang Dong defend against the might of this stance?

Wang Dong dodged three sword beams and used his weapon to block two sword beams before finally being hit by the sixth sword beam.

Then, the seventh, eighth, and ninth sword beam opened up wounds on his body like easily breaking a dead branch from a tree. The enormous impact directly sent him flying out of the platform.

If not for Ye Yuan showing mercy, he would already be a corpse now.

In a twinkle, from the time Ye Yuan struck to Wang Dong flying out, not even a breath of time had passed.

Crushing with one blow! Instant victory!

"Platform No. 49, No. 52 wins!" Elder Feng's voice was the first to sound out again.

"No way? Who is this No. 52? Why is he the first to win again?"

"If the first round was luck, then how do you explain the second round? Just where did this unknown No. 52 pop out from?"

"Too peculiar! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu and Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er haven't won yet, and this No. 52 won already?"

Ye Yuan's victory caused another uproar.

Tian Yu's expression fell slightly, and the sword in his hands accelerated.

After three moves, Tian Yu sent his opponent flying.

Victory!

Tian Yu's foe in the second round was a Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm. His strength was quite good. He forcibly hung on until the tenth blow before being defeated.

Compared to Ye Yuan's victory in one move, he was naturally much slower.

On Platform No. 2, a graceful silhouette danced along with the wind.

But when she heard Elder Feng's voice, her movements clearly lagged for an instant.

Immediately after, only to see that lithe figure speed up multiple times!

Similarly, after three moves, Tang Yu-er won!

Chapter 260: Unexpected Opponent

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

If would be fine if Elder Feng did not call out, but since he did, it became tragic for those disciples who were challenging the top 10.

Hearing this voice, the top 10 disciples' combat power soared vertically like they were on stimulants!

This was the second round. The opponents faced by the top 10 would not be too strong.

Once they erupted, how could ordinary disciples withstand it? With a one and two count, they were all defeated.

On Platform No. 1 and the adjacent Platform No. 2, the aloof Tang Yu-er took a rare trip over to Platform No. 1 and started chatting with Tian Yu.

"Tian Yu, after the first round ended, I think I saw you go and look at the other matches?"

Tang Yu-er had always wanted to surpass Tian Yu and viewed him as her sole rival. Hence, she never called him Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu.

Tian Yu was currently recuperating with his eyes shut. Seeing that Tang Yu-er posed a question, he opened his eyes and looked at her, saying with a faint smile, "No. 52 is an interesting opponent. Perhaps, he will become the greatest dark horse in this grand competition! Junior Apprentice Sister Yu-er, you have to be careful."

Honestly speaking, Tian Yu originally still looked down on Ye Yuan a little. But upon hearing that Ye Yuan comprehended the elementary form of true intent, this underestimation was naturally put away.

All those who could comprehend the elementary form of true intent were remarkable geniuses!

Furthermore, crossing ranks to battle were as easy as eating and drinking after comprehending true intent.

He already learned from Elder Feng about Ye Yuan's opponent this round. Although Wang Dong's strength was not much, to be instantly defeated by Ye Yuan also indicated many issues from one side!

Ye Yuan truly had the qualifications to sit and debate about Dao with him!

Surprise flickered across Tang Yu-er's eyes. She had never seen Tian Yu with such fighting intent.

Didn't that mean that Tian Yu was very much looking forward to fighting with that mysterious No. 52?

But, was this possible?

Everyone was clear on the strength of these sect disciples long ago. Those who could have emerged would have already emerged. Why would they wait until today?

Could this No. 52 be new?

With Tang Yu-er's strength and status, her eyes would forever be fixated on the position of elite disciple only. As for whatever disciple that was new to the sect, she could not even be bothered to follow. She naturally did not know Ye Yuan and Long Tang.

Except, how could newcomer disciples possibly be Tian Yu's match?

If a new half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert came, it was impossible for her to not hear anything about it, right?

Tian Yu did not elaborate on his words, and Tang Yu-er remained puzzled.

"You know this No. 52's identity? Who is he?" Tang Yu could not help asking curiously.

"He's called Ye Yuan. As for what kind of person he is, I'm not sure either. But I believe that you and I will know very soon. To be able to defeat Wang Dong instantly, he might be a formidable foe to us!" Tian Yu said coolly.

Tang Yu-er's pretty eye became intent as she revealed an astonishment look.

She had also suspected previously whether or not this No. 52 was lucky and bumped into rookies.

Tang Yu-er knew Wang Dong's name as well. His strength was exceptional among the Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realms. To be able to instantly kill Wang Dong, he most likely had the strength to clash with her!

"Alright. Go back and rest well. Adjust your condition to its peak! This grand competition will be more interesting than any others in the past!" Tian Yu said to Tang Yu-er with a faint smile.At the same time, many people were speculating who this No. 52 was. Some who were acquainted with Wang Dong went up to him.

"Wang Dong, I remember that you're No. 49? Then was your opponent No. 52? Who is this No. 52, to actually be the first person to win for two consecutive rounds?"

Wang Dong had a gloomy face as he said, "How would I know who he is? Either way, his age is not old; younger than both you and I. Should be a newcomer. But his strength is absolutely formidable! In my opinion . . . he can at least enter the top 10!"

That person had an incredulous look when he heard that and said, "Are you joking?! Who can shake the position of the top 10? You aren't finding an excuse for your loss, right?"

Wang Dong snickered coldly when he heard that and said, "Watch if you don't believe! Putting aside other things, just based solely on that ultimate move of his, to instantly transform into nine silhouettes and unleash nine sword beams, each stronger than the other! Just based on that one move, he can also enter the top 10!"

That disciple was greatly startled when he heard that and said, "No way? So incredible? Can it be a newly emerged half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert?"

Wang Dong shook his head and said, "That's a no. He's only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm."

That disciple burst into laughter when he heard that and said, "Wang Dong, did he bash your brain? Did you lose to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm? And you even say that he can enter the top 10?"

The corner of Wang Dong's mouth twitched, but he said disdainfully, "Didn't you lose in the second round too? Since you've nothing to do anyway, follow me to watch that No.52 compete and you'll see."

Having said that, that disciple became even more curiously and naturally would not reject. Hence, he went to find Ye Yuan's competition platform together with Wang Dong.The third round was 50 going to 25. If one passed the third round, it would also mean that they could enter the top 25 rankings!

Although there were some who were occasionally rather lucky earlier and encountered weaker opponents, after two rounds of filtering, the disciples who entered the third round were all rather powerful.

Even if there were those with weaker strength who were fortunate enough to pass two rounds, the possibility of passing the third round again would be virtually nil.

This third round was actually a dividing line. To be able to pass the third round meant that they belonged to the top echelon among the core disciples.

While other disciples were no less outstanding, compared to the disciples who passed the third round, the disparity became very obvious.

After two rounds of filtering, many disciples who were defeated no longer needed to take part in matches anymore. Quite a number of them gathered at some popular platforms to spectate the upcoming matches.

And currently, the platform where Ye Yuan was about to start his match was already surrounded by many disciples. This made him somewhat baffled.

Ye Yuan thought that the most popular platform should be Tian Yu's. Why were there so many people gathered over on his side?

Could it be that his opponent was very popular, that was why it attracted everyone to watch?

Speaking of which, Ye Yuan's opponent this round was No. 14. It should be an extremely powerful foe.

"Hey, did you guys hear? This No.52 is that newcomer disciple who snatched Ceng Yu's points right after entering the sect. He's called Ye Yuan!"

"En, I heard it too! I really did not think that a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm could actually pass two consecutive round! Furthermore, be the first to win! This fellow is truly perverse!"

"Tch, still Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm? He was Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm long ago! Don't you know yet? After he snatched Ceng Yu's points, he went to the A-grade cultivation rooms to enter seclusion for five days. After he exited, he was Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!"

"What? There's really such a thing? Incredible! Truly incredible! I didn't think that such a monster actually entered the sect this time! How are we going to survive? But, even if he broke through to the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, how was it possible to clear two rounds consecutively with such strength? Moreover, be the first to win?"

"Hehe, weren't we competing earlier? Now, I want to take a good look at what areas this No.52 surpasses others in! Do you know who his opponent this time is?"

"En? Who?"

"This opponent, No. 14, is the number one figure in the Earth Barracks, Zhang Jing!"

Chapter 261: Purple Yang Clear Howl!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Do not look at how Ceng Cheng and Qiu Peng caused huge scenes normally. Zhang Jing sat firmly on the top seat of the Earth Barracks the whole time.

Zhang Jing was also the disciple who arranged for Ye Yuan to stay in the Earth Barracks on the day he entered the sect.

When Ye Yuan saw Zhang Jing on the platform, he was involuntarily dumbstruck. Zhang Jing was similarly stunned when he saw Ye Yuan.

The two stared at each other speechlessly.

After a while, Zhang Jing looked at Ye Yuan with a bitter smile and said, "I really didn't expect the mysterious No. 52 to actually be you!"

"En? What do you mean? When did I become the mysterious No. 52?" Ye Yuan felt baffled after listening to Zhang Jing's words.

Zhang Jing was stupefied and said, "You've already become everyone's focal point after two rounds of competition. Don't you know that? Look at all those seniors and juniors below the platform."

"Ugh, I thought that they came here for Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang." Ye Yuan said helplessly.

"Why would they? In the past competitions, it was always Platform No. 1 which won first. But you won the previous two rounds at virtually the first moment. It was tough for others to not pay attention!" Zhang Jing sighed admiringly.

Zhang Jing never imagined that this mysterious No. 52 was actually Ye Yuan.

Furthermore, Ye Yuan was only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm currently. To actually be able to win with ease in the previous two rounds, how great was his strength?

Even though he was five minor realms higher than Ye Yuan, Zhang Jing unknowingly became rather guilty.

Thinking back to how he still felt superior in front of Ye Yuan, it was ludicrous thinking about it now.

However, Zhang Jing was also a magnanimous person. He felt at ease very quickly.

Recalling Senior Apprentice Brother Mo's actions back then, he actually noticed that there were some abnormalities.

Most likely, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo already knew at that time that Ye Yuan's strength had possibly already reached the level of Heaven Barracks, right? Otherwise, why would he hesitate on where to place Ye Yuan?

However, didn't that mean that when Ye Yuan was at the Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm, he was already not his match?

This . . . was really something which made people miserable!

Listening to Zhang Jing, Ye Yuan came to a realization. "So that's the case! I thought that Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang has good relations with people and that they came to watch Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang."

"Haha, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye is teasing me. How could I have such capabilities? Actually, in past competitions, the place which had the most people gathering around was Junior Apprentice Sister Tang Yu-er's platform. But the people below our platform this time is likely going to surpass hers," Zhang Jing also said smilingly.

Within sects, the ones who attained first were the masters. Although Zhang Jing was older than Tang Yu-er, his strength was much poorer. Hence, he also addressed the other party as senior apprentice sister.

Ye Yuan chuckled when he heard that and said, "I hope that Senior Apprentice Sister Tang Yu-er doesn't blame me for snatching her limelight."

While talking, the third round officially began.

After both parties saluted, Zhang Jing said, "When I saw Junior Apprentice Brother Ye back then, I really misjudged. To think that junior's strength was actually so formidable! However, I'll do my best later. I hope that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye won't be stingy with guidance!"

Ye Yuan naturally hoped strongly for this. He smiled and said, "I dare not. This Younger Brother will obviously go all out as well!"

"Please!"

"Please!"

The pair each gestured to begin as their auras rose abruptly!

"Purple Yang Clear Howl!"

The sword in Zhang Jing's hand shuddered violently and gave off waves of low cries. Countless azure sword qi extended out, heading straight for Ye Yuan!

Right away, it was an extremely fierce and sharp move!

"No way? Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang unleashed the Purple Yang Clear Howl right away. Isn't this too ludicrous?"

"Such a fierce and sharp sword qi, has Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang already trained the Purple Yang Clear Howl to the Great Circle Realm? The Purple Yang Clear Howl is an extremely formidable move in the second layer of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art. Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang actually trained it to the Great Circle Realm already without anyone knowing it. Truly worthy of being the top seat of the Earth Barracks!"

"Just based on this move, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang might squeeze into the top 10 and become a Heaven Barracks disciple!"

"Hehe, that's really hard to say. That bunch of sickos in the Heaven Barracks can't be measured using common sense. Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang is improving, but will they remain stagnant?"

"Now that you mentioned it, you're right! However, can this No. 52 receive this Purple Yang Clear Howl?"

"This . . . Probably going to be hard? No. 52 is incredible, but both you and I know the power of this Great Circle Realm Purple Yang Clear Howl. Most likely, even that perverse bunch in the top 10 would choke on this!"

This was Ye Yuan's first time facing an Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art sword move face on!

Him directly comprehending the sword intent on the Nine Heavens Road was equivalent to having a thorough understanding of this sword art. He did not need to exchange for the cultivation method in the sect.

In reality, the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art was a set of cultivation methods. It encompassed many martial techniques in it!

The Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art that the Tranquil Cloud Sect had comprised of a total of four layers. Each layer corresponded to a major realm!

And several sets of sword martial skills were included in each layer of the cultivation method.

This Purple Yang Clear Howl was an extremely powerful martial technique in the second layer. The training difficulty was high, and the power was incredible!

To have been able to train this martial technique to the Great Circle Realm showed Zhang Jing's remarkable strength.

Except, it was still somewhat lacking to use this move to deal with Ye Yuan.

Although Ye Yuan's realm was way lower than Zhang Jing's, when talking about comprehension towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent, Zhang Jing could not even catch up to Ye Yuan by whipping his horse!

That final sword on the Nine Heavens Road was the full comprehension You Wuya had towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent!

Ye Yuan fully comprehending that sword meant that he already stood on the same heights as You Wuya in terms of understanding of this sword intent!

This Purple Yang Clear Howl move from Zhang Jing was at most the standards of the first 10% of the last 333 steps on the Nine Heavens Road. The difference with the final sword move was too far.

Of course, Zhang Jing's advantage was his cultivation realm!

Unleashing a sword move with peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength, even if it were a trash-like move, the damage to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm would also be enormous; let alone the fact that the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art itself was extremely powerful!

Now . . . it was only to see Ye Yuan spinning around and sweep his sword horizontally!

What was released was not a single sword beam, but countless beams of sword qi!

In the air, beams of azure sword qi clashed with faint yellow sword qi. After each streak of sword qi collided, it would turn into nothing!

After several breaths, not a single one of the countless sword qi released by Zhang Jing actually bypassed Ye Yuan's sword qi to reach Ye Yuan!

"My . . . My God! H-How did he do it? No. 52 only unleashed one sword strike! The Purple Yang Clear Howl was broken just like this?"

"Too inconceivable! Did you see that? That sword strike from No. 52 was not any even a technique. It was just a simple slash! But how can that sword strike possibly produce so much sword qi?"

"Ah! I can't take it anymore! I can't take it anymore! This No. 52 is too perverse! The Purple Yang Clear Howl is ranked third among all the moves in the second layer, and it was actually broken by him so easily!"

Chapter 262: Empty Alleys

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Purple Lighting Azure Frost!"

On Platform No. 1, Tian Yu gave a low cry, and his opponent was defeated.

The third round, the announcement of No. 1 winning was finally the first to sound out. Except, there was already nobody paying heed to such things.

Even Tian Yu himself was not in the mood to listen to this voice. He walked down the platform directly and headed towards the platform where Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing were facing off.

"Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens!"

On Platform No. 2, Tang Yu-er similarly cried out, the red silk in her hands bounded up her foe in a peculiar manner, beating him down easily.

The same thing happened to many disciples ranked in the top 10. They all wanted to rush to watch the platform that No. 52 was at. Just what kind of god was this mysterious No. 52?!At this very moment, the competition for elite disciples also reached the white-hot stage!

The number of elite disciples was forever fixed like core disciples. Except, there were only 20 elite disciples at all times!

These 20 people could be said to be the future hope of the sect!

The competition for elite disciples was different from core disciples. Every grand competition, they all fought in revolving battles!

20 people, that was also to say that each person had to experience 19 revolving battles!

Whoever won the most matches at the end would be rank one. And the people in the bottom three rankings had to undergo a final match with the top three core disciples to determine who stays and who leaves.

On Platform No. 3, a youth dressed in martial outfit unleashed a flurry of fist silhouettes, beating his opponent until he could only ward off the blows and without the slightest strength to retaliate!

Only to see him withdraw his fist momentum and give a low cry, "Boundless Tyrant Fist!"

Only to hear a boom, his opponent was sent flying out of the platform.

"Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, your fist art is really becoming more and more powerful! It's simply flawless!" the youth who was defeated grumbled.

When he was on the platform earlier, that Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was incomparably tyrannical with an aura that disdained all life.

But currently, Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was meek like the boy-next-door.

The before and after was huge. It was hard for others to believe that they were the same person.

This Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was called Ti Wujiu, the well-deserved leader of the elite disciples!

This person was normally very easy to get along with. He did not put on any airs of a senior. Disciples who did not know him simply could not imagine that he was the leader of the elite disciples.

But once the battle began, it was like Ti Wujiu was possessed by the god of war, going berserk on his opponent until they could not catch their breath.

From the start of the grand competition until now, more than half of the matches for the elite disciples had passed. Ti Wujiu was number one in terms of battle results with complete victories.

In reality, this was like a common occurrence to him.

The one who fought with him just now was called Cheng Wu. His strength was somewhat lacking among the elite disciples. Now that he lost battles repeatedly today, barring no accidents, he should be one of the bottom three placings.

Seeing Cheng Wu grumbled, Ti Wujiu smiled warmly and said, "How can there be a flawless fist art? It's just that you didn't find them. If it was Senior Apprentice Brother Mo or Senior Apprentice Brother Xin, this fist art of mine would be full of flaws."

The corner of Cheng Wu's mouth twitched slightly as he said, "They are both personal disciples who entered the sect much earlier than Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu. In future, Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu's accomplishments will surely not be beneath theirs! Furthermore, Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu tread up the Dao of using fist arts. To have such accomplishments is truly hard to come by!"

Mo Yuntian, Xin Lie, these people were accepted as personal disciples by the hall head. Although they were still disciples in title, they actually did not need to participate in the competition between disciples anymore.

What personal disciples had to do was to follow their master to cultivate, and they would frequently be sent out to carry out some missions.

And their status in the sect was actually no longer inferior to ordinary elders.

Ti Wujiu chuckled and did not continue with this topic. Instead, he laughed and said, "Little Wu, you seem to be slacking off a little recently. You actually lost so many matches this grand competition."

Cheng Wu had a bitter face when he heard that and said, "Sigh! Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, it's really not that I'm slacking, but because all of you improve too quickly! I already can't quite follow your footsteps! I won't talk about that any longer. Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, there happens to be some time for us now; can I trouble you to accompany me to the core disciples' area to take a look and scout out the enemy? I want to see to what extent Tian Yu that boy has improved."

Ti Wujiu had a mild temperament and did not reject. He nodded his head and went with Cheng Wu to the core disciples' area.

"En? What's the matter? Don't tell me it has all ended? Where did all the people go to?"

Cheng Wu came over to take a look. All the platforms were empty, leaving only one platform full of people beneath it.

It actually gave people a feeling of empty alleys!

"En? It's rather odd. Who's fighting on that platform? Why would there be so many onlookers?" Ti Wujiu was also curious.

"Come, let's go over and look too!" Cheng Wu said.

When the two approached, Ti Wujiu's gaze involuntarily turned sharp!

On the platform, sword light radiated as sword qi ran wild!

A youth who looked very unfamiliar was locked in battle with the Earth Barracks' Zhang Jing!

The most frightening thing was that the youth was actually only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm! But his attainments in sword art were so great that it simply took people's breath away in amazement!

To be able to fight so fiercely as a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm against a peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm showed the might of this youth!

When did such a freakish youth appear in the Tranquil Cloud Sect?

"Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, quickly look, Tian Yu is also there watching the fight! Tang Yu-er and Luo Chengfeng too! They are all actually watching this young man's competition!" Cheng Wu exclaimed in shock like he discovered a new continent.

Ti Wujiu nodded and said, "I wonder who this young man is. A Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm actually has such combat strength!"

The people below the stage were already long mesmerized from watching.

Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing already fought for over a hundred rounds and had yet to determine the victor!

Ye Yuan's understanding towards sword intent made everyone feel utterly ashamed of their inadequacy.

No matter how unpredictable the sword moves Zhang Jing unleashed were, Ye Yuan could easily resolve them.

However, Zhang Jing's strength was also really very strong. Ye Yuan grasped an opportunity in between to display the Nine Swords Stance.

Except, it was too rushed at that time. The power of the Nine Swords Stance did not achieve the most ideal outcome.

Zhang Jing actually barely dodged the nine streaks of sword light!

After that time, Zhang Jing broke out in cold sweat all over his body. Ever since then, he was abnormally cautious and absolutely did not give Ye Yuan any chance to display the Nine Swords Stance.

Right now, Zhang Jing's powerful performance was displayed in its entirety. Ye Yuan could not find any chance at all!

Just like this, both parties sunk into a fierce exchange. All of Zhang Jing's attacks had completely no effect, but he did not give Ye Yuan any chance to attack either. The two people actually fought all the way until now like this!

All the matches had already ended, leaving only this match!

However, the audience below the stage was not at all irritated. The majority of them cultivated the incomplete Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art and were very sensitive to sword intent.

From the start of the battle until now, watching Ye Yuan's unbelievably profound sword intent, the crowd all felt that they reaped no little benefits!

Ye Yuan's sword intent originally contained the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent within. Although these disciples felt that it was extremely abstruse, they could more or less perceive some things.

Chapter 263: Admitting Defeat

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Tian Yu, is this No. 52 using the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art? Why does it look like it seems to be, yet not really so?" Tang Yu-er's pretty face was full of doubt.

Tian Yu's eyes were filled with astoundment at the moment!

In terms of understanding towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art, he had no equal among the younger generation.

Although Ti Wujiu was ranked one among the elite disciples, what he specialized in was fist techniques, and not the sect's foundations, the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art.

In terms of this cultivation skill, Tian Yu was number one ever since returning from the Nine Heavens Road!

It was just that due to cultivation realm limitations, his strength could not compare to elite disciples yet.

Except, when he saw Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing's faceoff, he actually had a deeply profound sensation.

That sort of sensation was as if he was facing that final sword on the Nine Heavens Road. No, it seemed to be even more profound than that sword!

Could this be the trudging out your own path that Ye Yuan referred to?

Tian Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know either! I only know that his understanding of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art has already reached the stage of having it at his fingertips! Since he started fighting with Zhang Jing until now, he did not even use any move, but it is formless winning moves!"

"How is he compared to you?" Tang Yu-er asked.

Tang Yu-er was not a sword cultivator and was not very sensitive towards sword intent.

Tian Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Simply no way of comparing."

Tang Yu-er did not notice Tian Yu's expression and said in relief, "That's what I said. How can a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm possibly be your match? Zhang Jing and he are pretty much evenly matched. There's simply no comparison to you!"

To a proud child of heaven, their greatest fear was nothing more than being replaced by a newcomer like Ye Yuan who suddenly appeared. Even a great beauty like Tang Yu-er was not immune to it.

For geniuses like Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er, it had only been them surpassing others. Since when were they surpassed by others?

Now that a mysterious No. 52 suddenly popped out, the impact it had on them was enormous.

Instinctively, Tang Yu-er did not wish that Ye Yuan could surpass her.

Even if she was surpassed, it at least had to be after some time later.

Ye Yuan was only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm. Being surpassed by him like this in the first grand competition after he entered the sect was too humiliating!

This was not that Tang Yu-er was narrow-minded but human nature.

Not just her, but Tian Yu, Luo Chengfeng, and the rest actually also had this mentality. Otherwise, why would they think to finish their own match to come over and watch the fight?

Tian Yu was stunned, then laughed wryly and said, "That's not it! Ye Yuan's comprehension of Sword Dao is way stronger than mine! Don't look at how I'm stronger than Zhang Jing; if it were me on that platform right now, the battle situation would not be any better than his."

Tang Yu-er's eyes went wide as she said disbelievingly, "How's that possible? You're clearly way stronger than Zhang Jing!"

Tang Yu-er's meaning was that Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing's strength were roughly the same while Tian Yu was much stronger than Zhang Jing. In that case, Tian Yu's strength was naturally much stronger than Ye Yuan's.

Tian Yu shook his head and said, "Ye Yuan can fight Zhang Jing to a draw as a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, why do you think that is the case?"

Tang Yu-er thought about it and said, "It should be his sword intent, right?"

Tian Yu nodded and said, "I'm stronger than Zhang Jing because my comprehension towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art is deeper than his. But Ye Yuan's understanding towards sword intent is way stronger than mine. Regardless of what sword move I use, it will be easily resolved by him! How do I fight like this?"

Tang Yu-er said reluctantly, "Doesn't that mean that everyone who cultivates the Sword Dao in the sect isn't his match?"

Tian Yu said, "At least among the disciples, that's the case!"

"This . . . How is this possible? Humph! I don't believe it! I must defeat him!" Tang Yu-er refused to concede defeat.

Tian Yu chuckled and did not say much. Honestly speaking, Tian Yu was also very much looking forward to the clash between Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan.

Tang Yu-er did not cultivate sword dao. No matter how strong Ye Yuan's sword intent was, it could not affect Tang Yu-er's performance.

Tang Yu-er had half-step Crystal Formation Realm strength. How should Ye Yuan resolve that?On the platform, Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing's fight had already progressed to a white-hot stage.

Zhang Jing suddenly withdrew his sword and stood there, saying to Ye Yuan, "Wait!"

Ye Yuan similarly stopped and said, "What guidance does Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang have?"

Zhang Jing laughed calmly and said, "I didn't think that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's Sword Dao attainments were actually so great! Zhang Jing admits defeat! Next, I'll unleash my strongest sword. If Junior Apprentice Brother Ye can receive it, then this Zhang will directly concede!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Please go ahead, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang!"

Zhang Jing shut his eyes and sucked in a deep breath. He raised the sword in his hand.

All of a sudden, purple lightning flashed around Zhang Jing's sword. An extremely powerful aura rippled out!

"It's Purple Lightning Azure Frost! Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang mastered the Purple Lightning Azure Frost!" someone below the stage said agitatedly.

"This is the second strongest move in the second layer. Very few people in the sect can comprehend it! Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang having comprehended the Purple Lightning Azure Frost should be charging for the top 10 this time!"

"But . . . is this move effective against No. 52?"Collective speechlessness!

Ye Yuan's sword art which lifted the heavy as if it were light already shook everyone's heart!

Such a long fighting duration, Ye Yuan gave everyone a feeling that he could break apart any kind of sword move no matter what!

He was undefeatable!

"Purple Lightning Azure Frost!" Zhang Jing gave a low cry. Purple-colored lightning mixed within azure colored sword beams shot towards Ye Yuan.

But the so-called strongest move in Zhang Jing's mouth really did not pose much of a threat to Ye Yuan.

All of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art's sword moves were ineffective to Ye Yuan!

Unless they were like Mo Yuntian, a martial artist who was a major realm higher than Ye Yuan. That way, they could use absolute strength to crush Ye Yuan.

It was only to see Ye Yuan made a stabbing move straight on, receiving this attack directly.

Under everyone's stupefied gazes, the violent purple lightning and azure sword qi entered Ye Yuan's sword tip and vanished.

The strongest move actually did not even stir a single wave!

Zhang Jing was not as dejected as imagined. Instead, he gave a faint smile and said, "I lost!"

Ye Yuan beamed and said, "Thanks for giving way, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang!"

"Not at all! I didn't give way at all! I already unleashed everything I had but could not do anything to you! If our cultivation realms were similar, I reckon that I would also be instantly trounced. I truly did not think that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye was actually so formidable!" Zhang Jing said with a rather emotional sigh.

Ye Yuan smiled but did not follow up.

Ye Yuan would not be wildly arrogant, but would not humble himself unduly either. If their realms were similar, he could easily defeat Zhang Jing instantly.

But Ye Yuan naturally would not brag about something like that.

"I had many gains during this battle. I'll enter a closed-seclusion while the sensation from the battle earlier is still there! Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, I wish you all the best in your matches at the back! Farewell!"

Finishing, Zhang Jing left floatingly without even turning his head back.

"Platform No. 13, No. 52 win!" Elder Feng's voice suddenly sounded, shattering the dead quiet scene.

Ti Wujiu looked at the figure on the platform and said to Cheng Wu with a grin, "Looks like there's another interesting opponent in this grand competition!"

Cheng Wu pulled a bitter face and said, "How is this interesting? Why are there more and more freaks!"

Chapter 264: Dao of Calligraphy!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Where the hell did this No. 52 pop out from? His sword arts are simply at the peak of perfection!"

"Isn't it so? Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang even used the Purple Lightning Azure Frost, but it was completely useless against No. 52!"

"I heard that he just ascended from the secular world. How could that land of the mundane possibly give birth to such a freak?"

"I heard that he isn't even 16 years old yet. Even if he gained enlightenment on the Dao in his mother's womb, it's also impossible to reach such an extent, right?"Ye Yuan defeating Zhang Jing caused a huge commotion among the sect disciples.

Ye Yuan's name was very quickly known by all the disciples.

Ceng Cheng also saw the match between Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing. He rejoiced that he did not find trouble with Ye Yuan back then. Otherwise, he would have lost a great amount of face.

He only knew now that Ye Yuan teaching his younger brother a lesson did not even count as an appetizer.

Ye Yuan's strength could aim for the top 3!

Ceng Cheng was similarly a sword cultivator. He was deeply aware of Ye Yuan's Sword Dao's prowess. Even if Tian Yu up there, he might not gain any advantages.

If not because Ceng Cheng passed the third round, he also wanted to enter seclusion like Zhang Jing did!

Ceng Cheng believed that there was quite a number with the same thoughts as him. Among them even included Tian Yu!

Ye Yuan did not let any ripples surface on his state of mind because of becoming a celebrity. Because this was not worth mentioning to him.

With his aptitude, if he could not even catch people's eyes in a Lower Realm's tiny sect, then it would be an epic fail.

Ye Yuan's opponent in the fourth round was still a sword cultivator disciple. That disciple's strength was much weaker than Zhang Jing's. The result need not be said.

Starting from the fourth round all the way until the top four elites were born, there would be a disciple who fell every round.

After four rounds of battle, a day passed by just like that.

The battle on the second day was of the utmost importance. The weak disciples were basically all eliminated during the first stage. Those remaining were all elites among the disciples.

The battles during the second day were all basically the strong facing the strong! Such a competition was naturally 100% worth watching.

Ye Yuan's opponent in the fifth round was a top 10 expert, similarly a sword cultivator disciple.

In reality, this disciple's strength was roughly the same as Zhang Jing's. His Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art was likewise trained to the Purple Lightning Azure Frost.

Originally, Zhang Jing wanted to rely on the Purple Lightning Azure Frost to assail the top 10 this time. But the result was that he was unexpectedly eliminated by Ye Yuan in the third round.

The outcome was obviously no surprise. After a bout of struggle, Ye Yuan won once more!

Nobody could have imagined that there would actually be a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm who entered the top seven this grand competition!

However, there wasn't really anyone who was unconvinced by this result. This was what Ye Yuan won round after round, without the slightest bit of trickery.

In between, Ye Yuan defeated several experts whose strengths were sufficient to enter the top 10.

Ye Yuan was well deserving of the top seven!

"After winning another opponent, you can enter the top four! Initially, I thought that you would shock everyone in one move the next grand competition. I didn't think that you would do it now." Long Tang look at Ye Yuan as he sighed emotionally.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "You're not bad too. To pass through three rounds consecutively with Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm. That is already in the top 25!"

Long Tang showed extraordinary splendor previously in the matches, overcoming all difficulties in succession, and charging all the way to the fourth round before being defeated by Luo Chengfeng.

Putting Ye Yuan aside, Long Tang was absolutely the biggest dark horse in this competition!

The might of his Breaking Fantasy Fist Intent virtually swept across all experts below the Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!

Of course, Long Tang's luck was still considered decent. Before meeting Luo Chengfeng, he did not really encounter any formidable contestants.

Even so, to have walked to this step with Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation, it was absolutely sufficiently strong!

Long Tang grinned, clearly still very satisfied with this result.

But after going through this grand competition, he also finally became conscious of how powerful the Breaking Fantasy Fist Intent that he comprehended was.

Those disciples at a higher realm than him, although they could not compare to like Zhang Jing's strength, they were absolutely not second-rate.

To be able to charge into the fourth round among the core disciples where experts roamed like clouds, it unequivocally meant true ability.

"Senior Apprentice Brother Ye, your opponent next round is Luo Chengfeng. I know that your sword intent is powerful, but you should still be careful when encountering him!"

"En, I know. There are four half-step Crystal Formation Realms in the top 10. But for Luo Chengfeng to be able to beat down two half-step Crystal Formation Realms, his strength is clear at a glance," Ye Yuan nodded and said.

Ye Yuan was not someone whose eyes were on top of their heads. His mind was very clear.

At that time, the half-step Crystal Formation Realm Su Yubai could heavily injure Huyan Yong with a single palm until he vomited blood showed the gap between peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm and half-step Crystal Formation Realm.

Huyan Yong had more potential than Su Yubai, and his strength was also greater than ordinary Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm.

Even so, he was still defeated in a single move!

Although it was because he wanted to save Ye Yuan back then that Huyan Yong had no choice but to clash face on with Su Yubai, this was ample to show how powerful half-step Crystal Formation Realm was!

And for Luo Chengfeng to suppress two half-step Crystal Formation Realms with peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation showed just what realm his comprehension towards a certain concept had reached!

"How was it? The match with him? Disclose a little!" Ye Yuan asked with a laugh.

Long Tang was somewhat surprised as he said, "Haha, I didn't think that you would actually be concerned about your opponent. I thought that you would not pay attention to this!"

Ye Yuan said smilingly, "Know the enemy and know yourself, and you can win a hundred battles! I'm not some Deity Realm powerhouse. It's impossible to sweep across all adversaries."

Long Tang nodded. He knew that Ye Yuan was very strong, but Ye Yuan's realm was still too low in the end.

It was still fine against those ordinary opponents, but he would naturally pay heed to opponents who had a much higher cultivation realm than him and who also had a strong concept comprehension.

Recalling the match with Luo Chengfeng, a deep dread was reflected in Long Tang's eyes.

It was apparent that that match was not some beautiful memory.

"Strong! Very strong! I didn't even make it past five moves! Moreover, he didn't even draw his weapon!" Long Tang said with trepidation.

Ye Yuan's eyes showed seriousness. He knew Long Tang's strength. To be able to defeat him in five moves and not even use his weapon showed just how great Luo Chengfeng's strength was!

"En? Then do you know what weapon he uses?" Ye Yuan asked.

Long Tang nodded and said, "I was rather unresigned, so I asked around fellow disciples afterward before finding out that Luo Chengfeng actually uses a judge pen! And the only one who can force him to use the judge pen is Tian Yu!"

Surprised, Ye Yuan asked, "En? Why is that? Even Tang Yu-er can't force his weapon out? But Tang Yu-er's ranking is above his!"

Long Tang said, "I was also quite surprised when I heard it at first, but I learned from others that Luo Chengfeng once said that he was a scholar. Unless it was a life and death match, he would not use his judge pen to deal with a woman."

"Oh? This is an interesting person. That's also to say that this Luo Chengfeng is walking the Dao of Calligraphy?"

"That's right! It's said that half of his time every day is spent on writing and not cultivation."

But Ye Yuan grinned and waved his hands when he heard that and said, "Writing is also a form of cultivation! The Dao of Calligraphy, Dao of Sword, and the Dao of Fist are all the same; all are a Great Dao! When cultivated to the limits, the power is exceedingly formidable!"

Chapter 265: Strange Fight

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Among martial artists, the Dao of Calligraphy was viewed as a mundane Dao, only a Minor Dao; something that scholars in the mundane world practiced.

Many martial artists practiced the Dao of Calligraphy but failed to have any accomplishments. Many times, years would pass, but the gains would be extremely trivial.

As time passed, there were fewer and fewer martial artists who practiced the Dao of Calligraphy.

But in reality, if one had achievements in the Dao of Calligraphy, their strength would be much greater than ordinary martial artists!

Among the ten supreme Divine Kings in the Divine Realm, there was a Heavenly Book Divine King. As a matter of fact, his strength was actually not weaker than the Spirit Bristle Divine King!

It could be seen just how formidable the power of this Dao of Calligraphy was when comprehended to its limits!

Except, wanting to step into the gates of the Dao of Calligraphy was too hard, way too hard! Furthermore, there were exceedingly few powerhouses of this Dao. The inspirations left behind from cultivation methods would naturally be scarce as well.

The perception and lucky chances required to comprehend a supreme true intent based on one's own inspiration was way too harsh.

From Long Tang's description, it looked like Luo Chengfeng most likely already grasped the basics of the Dao of Calligraphy. It was merely unknown to exactly what extent.

Now that each of Ye Yuan's battle was everyone's focal point, his match with Luo Chengfeng became the main attraction this round!

This match determined who could enter the top four. If Ye Yuan continued to upset the status quo, then Luo Chengfeng who initially could have firmly entered the top three would be stopped outside the gates of elite disciples!

In the previous grand competition, Luo Chengfeng emerged out of nowhere, overcoming all challenges along the way, and charging into the top three. He even defeated a half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert!

But sadly, he lost to the last place of the elite disciples and remained among the core disciples.

Now that several months had passed, Luo Chengfeng's strength had made great strides forward again. If not for Ye Yuan this dark horse appearing, Luo Chengfeng was extremely likely to make it into the elite disciples.

Whether or not Ye Yuan's strength could shake the top three was also everyone's focal point.

If Ye Yuan could shake the top three Luo Chengfeng with Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength, then the degree of his monstrousness was too terrifying!This was Ye Yuan's first time seeing Luo Chengfeng. He was different from his domineering fame. His real person appeared very learned and refined.

Luo Chengfeng had a silk headdress resembling a ridged roof on his head and azure colored long robes. He looked like a Confucian scholar rushing to take the exams and not a peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist.

Thinking about it, this kind of disposition was inseparable from him bitterly training calligraphy around the clock. But if anyone were to underestimate him because of this, they would come to regret it.

Luo Chengfeng slowly drew his judge pen when he saw Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan's gaze sharpened slightly, saying, "I heard that Senior Apprentice Brother Luo doesn't draw your weapon easily. What's with this?"

Luo Chengfeng said nonchalantly, "I saw Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's battle. You're very strong!"

The meaning of his words was that Ye Yuan's might had already reached the extent where he had no choice but to draw his weapon!

"So that's the case. Then junior will seek guidance from Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's Dao of Calligraphy. Please!"

Luo Chengfeng nodded and did not say anything redundant. He lifted his hand and pointed with his judge pen.

A formless force tore through the air, heading straight for Ye Yuan!

This move had had a powerful aura and force. It was like the formless force wanted to tear apart space!

"Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's Force Penetrating Paperback! It's a killing move right after coming up!"

"With the heaven and earth as the paper, strength breaking 30 thousand catties! This move from Senior Apprentice Brother Luo is much stronger than the previous grand competition!"

"Yeah! Senior Apprentice Brother Luo cultivated the Dao of Calligraphy. I wonder how Ye Yuan will deal with it?"

Ye Yuan looked at this Force Penetrating Paperback and smiled. Only to see him wield his sword, pointing in midair too!

Similarly, a streak of force shot out and collided with Luo Chengfeng's force!

Evidently, Luo Chengfeng's force was a level stronger. It broke apart Ye Yuan's force, attacking Ye Yuan again.

It was just that after being blocked by Ye Yuan's force, the remaining force was of no concern anymore.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stupefied, including the Luo Chengfeng who used the Force Penetrating Paperback.

"This . . . What happened just now? Ye Yuan, he . . . actually know the Dao of Calligraphy too? Was his move earlier Force Penetrating Paperback?"

"Why do I have a sort of misconception that Ye Yuan's understanding towards this move is actually above Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's!"

"That's not a misconception! Ye Yuan's Force Penetrating Paperback is really stronger than Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's! It's just that Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's realm is much higher than his, that's why Ye Yuan move cannot beat Luo Chengfeng's."

". . . Doesn't that mean that Ye Yuan is similarly immune to Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's move? Isn't this fellow too heaven-defying? It's fine if his Sword Dao realm was high, but his comprehension towards Calligraphy Dao is also so perverse!"

That move earlier, Ye Yuan clearly used the sword as a pen to display Force Penetrating Paperback.

Furthermore, in terms of power, it was actually above Luo Chengfeng! It was just that due to his realm being too low, he lost to Luo Chengfeng.

Luo Chengfeng maintained that calm and composed appearance, but the seriousness and confusion in his eyes could not be wiped away.

"This Imperial Law True Book is something I only managed to have some small gains in after bitterly cultivating for 10 years! I heard that you came from the State of Qin, so you should not have had the chance to see this cultivation method. Why is your move stronger than mine?"

Ye Yuan did not get to open his mouth when Luo Chengfeng suddenly muttered to himself. "Wrong! That wasn't Force Penetrating Paperback just now! Although it's extremely alike, it's missing a trace of Calligraphy Dao rhyme! But . . . but why is the power so strong?"

The more he pondered, the more incomprehensible Luo Chengfeng felt.

The comprehension of the Dao of Calligraphy was not built in a day. Luo Chengfeng immersed in this Dao for 10 years before he had some minor gains. That was why his strength in this past two years suddenly soared.

But just how did Ye Yuan execute that move just now?

Could it be that he could execute other people's moves with just a glance? And the power would be greater than them?

Luo Chengfeng's gaze condensed and said, "Take another move from me! Iron Picture Silver Hook!"

Luo Chengfeng's judge pen drew a stroke in front of his chest. A sharp and fierce force was released once more.

If the Force Penetrating Paperback earlier was a heavy atmosphere, then this Iron Picture Silver Hook would be abnormally sharp.

It could attack when advancing and defend when retreating. This Imperial Law True Book was really a powerful cultivation method.

Ye Yuan chuckled calmly and mimicked Luo Chengfeng's actions, using the sword as a pen once again. An Iron Picture Silver Hook was unleashed again!

The same thing happened once more. Luo Chengfeng's attack was weakened after Ye Yuan's move, becoming feeble and powerless, and was easily resolved by Ye Yuan.

Luo Chengfeng's gaze revealed solemnness.

Previously, everyone wanted to see how the Sword Dao freak, Ye Yuan, would react when encountering fellow disciples with other concepts.

But nobody could have imagined that the result would actually be like this!

Whatever move Luo Chengfeng released, Ye Yuan would actually counterattack with the same move!

Such a fighting style was too abnormal.

The audience below the stage looked at each other, their eyes revealing deep astonishment.

They had participated in many grand competitions before but had never encountered such a strange battle.

Regardless of what move you use, the other person would give you a dose of your own medicine. How to fight like this?

The main point was that it was fine if Ye Yuan's paying back in one's own coin only looked like the real deal, but his retaliation just had to be incomparably sharp.

Chapter 266: Mimicking Concept!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"W-What's going on here? Could Ye Yuan really have cultivated the Imperial Law True Book before?"

"The Imperial Law True Book is extremely hard to train in. The hardships that Senior Apprentice Brother Luo had to suffer to cultivate it to its realm today is something that no one can compare to! But Ye Yuan actually just displayed it so casually!"

"Could Ye Yuan be one of those people who is born with knowledge? Otherwise, with his age, how is it possible to have such accomplishments on Sword Dao and Calligraphy Dao at the same time?"

The disciples below the stage did not know calligraphy dao and thought that Ye Yuan was bent on competing in Calligraphy Dao with Luo Chengfeng.

Only Luo Chengfeng on the stage knew that what Ye Yuan executed was not the Dao of Calligraphy!

But why did it have such great power if it was not the Dao of Calligraphy?

Luo Chengfeng was also a proud person. Seeing Ye Yuan repeatedly tearing apart his move through replication, a refusal to concede defeat welled up from the bottom of his heart!

"Pen Expressing Dragons and Snakes!"

"Dragon Soar, Phoenix Dance!"

"Permeating Three Parts Wood!"One move after another, the powerful force overflowed the platform, causing a colossal upheaval!

If not for array formations protecting, the platform would already be destroyed several times over.

But opposite Luo Chengfeng, Ye Yuan similarly used his sword to execute the exact same moves Luo Chengfeng did unhurriedly.

"Pen Expressing Dragons and Snakes!"

"Dragon Soar, Phoenix Dance!"

"Permeating Three Parts Wood!"Blasts of energy collided together and were obliterated!

Compared to the match with Zhang Jing yesterday, this match was even more soul-stirring!

Yesterday's match, Ye Yuan relied on his impressive sword intent to resolve them one by one.

But today's match with Luo Chengfeng, Ye Yuan clearly did not lift heavy like it was light like yesterday. But the exact same moves shook people to their core even more!

Ye Yuan stood there like a mirror. No matter how Luo Chengfeng used his strength, he could reflect it.

Such a battle gave Ye Yuan an added portion of power and awe.

Luo Chengfeng was full of elegance but also became a little pissed currently.

Each of his moves was stronger than the previous, and also more difficult. He wanted to see whether Ye Yuan could really replicate all of his moves!

To be able to defeat a half-step Crystal Formation Realm with peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength, it could be seen how great Luo Chengfeng's strength was!

Towards the end, Luo Chengfeng's moves were so powerful that it made the audience below the stage feel stifled!

"To think that after a few months, Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's strength already became so formidable! Compared to the last grand competition, it's like his entire being was cast off and reborn anew!"

"Yeah! He was still quite young and tender the previous grand competition. Now, he's already very mature! Furthermore, he did not break through this half a year. Most likely, he can break through to half-step Crystal Formation Realm anytime, right?"

"Isn't that so? At Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's level, they are no longer in a rush to raise cultivation realms! The more concepts they can comprehend in the Spirit Condensation Realm, the greater the benefits in the future!"

"Yeah. I wonder how Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's present strength is like compared to Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's? It seems like he was initially holding it back for a good confrontation with Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu. But the result is that he's obstructed by Ye Yuan currently."

"Speaking of which, this Ye Yuan is really so powerful that it's frightening! If he can break through to the Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, he can most likely even clash with Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu, right?"

"Hehe, I didn't think that such a monster would appear in our sect! No matter what the result of this grand competition is, the next grand competition will be Ye Yuan's world!"

A genius like Luo Chengfeng, the duration between the grand competitions was enough for him to improve tremendously.

For geniuses of their level, what they competed in had always been who improved more. If I improved more than you, that means that I'm more talented!

Once improvement speed slowed down, they would naturally be eliminated.

Just like the elite disciple Cheng Wu, his strength was very great, but compared to others, his improvement speed was slower, so he obviously became weaker.

However, such rapid progress was actually unable to do anything to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm newbie!

"Profound Knowledge Akin to Divine Aid!"

After a tumultuous and violent clash, Luo Chengfeng finally used his greatest trump card!

This move was something that Luo Chengfeng comprehended only recently. Originally, this was his ultimate trump card meant to deal with Tian Yu, but it was unexpectedly forced out by Ye Yuan.

Once it was executed, the wind and clouds suddenly changed. Powerful formless energy flooded the platform. A moment of carelessness and the outcome would definitely be being sent flying off the platform!

But over on the other end, only to see Ye Yuan swing his sword calmly. Profound Knowledge Akin to Divine Aid was released in a twinkle!

Except, everyone here, including Luo Chengfeng, did not detect that Ye Yuan added a little something extra into this move!

Essence Energy Ignition!

It was only to see Ye Yuan's Profound Knowledge Akin to Divine Aid being executed. The battle situation on the platform became drastically different from before!

Ye Yuan's force was like a whirlwind sweeping away scattered clouds, devouring Luo Chengfeng's attack unceasingly.

Luo Chengfeng's face changed. He did not think that such a situation would actually occur.

Previously, it was always him bombarding wantonly, but this time, Ye Yuan retaliated, catching him completely off-guard!

The attack after adding Essence Energy Ignition was unbelievably powerful. It was already too late for Luo Chengfeng to want to defend against it!

He only saw countless blasts of formless energy besieging him, directly breaking through his protective essence energy and sending him flying.

Luo Chengfeng was only hit down the platform and did not suffer major injuries.

Ye Yuan had a sense of propriety when attacking and did not ignite too much essence energy.

Luo Chengfeng adjusted his posture in midair and landed on the ground lightly.

It was dead silent below the stage. Everyone did not know what to say.

If this was like the result of Zhang Jing's match, everybody could still barely accept it. The result of this match was really unexpected!

The top three core disciples represented virtually the highest point in the Tranquil Cloud Sect!

In the minds of all the core disciples, the only ones who could beat the top three people were only the top three, or core disciples.

Others need not even think about it!

Because for these three people to be able to occupy this position meant that their improvement speed surpassed all others.

Once they were shaken off by such a genius, then they would only get cast even further behind.

Nobody had ever thought that someone in the top three would lose in the hands of a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!

Just take Luo Chengfeng for example. His strength was sufficient to challenge ordinary Third Level Crystal Formation Realms!

Someone like Su Yulin was not even Luo Chengfeng's match.

Doesn't this mean that Ye Yuan's strength could cross an entire major realm to defeat his opponent?

This . . . This was too inconceivable!

Luo Chengfeng sighed lightly and cupped his fists towards Ye Yuan and said, "Many thanks for Junior Apprentice Brother Ye showing mercy!"

"Not at all! Senior Apprentice Brother Luo being able to walk so far on the Dao of Calligraphy, this Junior is full of admiration! In fact, this Junior won with somewhat unorthodox means," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

Luo Chengfeng's face changed slightly, and he could not help voicing the suspicions he had in his heart. "Where did Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's moves come from? Could Junior Apprentice Brother Ye really have trained in the Imperial Law True Book before?"

Ye Yuan shook his head and said with a grin, "Nay! Those moves were all copied after I watched Senior Apprentice Brother Luo's moves! This is called . . . mimicking concept!"

Chapter 267: Dragon Among Men

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Mimicking concept? What's that?" Luo Chengfeng could not help being stupefied.

"My move looks exactly the same as yours. But in reality, when talking about the contents, it differs in thousands of ways. Those moves of mine were mimicked using sword intent. It appeared right, but is really wrong," Ye Yuan said.

"This . . . Concepts can actually be utilized like this?"

Luo Chengfeng originally felt that something was off, but could not figure it out the whole time. Now that he heard Ye Yuan talk about it, the other party had actually been using sword intent to clash with him the entire time?

But even if it was sword intent, wasn't it too alike?

No matter how Luo Chengfeng racked his brains, he could not figure out how sword intent could be used to mimic calligraphy intent so skillfully as to be indistinguishable from the original!

Luo Chengfeng believed that the audience below the stage could not even see through that what Ye Yuan used was sword intent! Only him, someone who immersed himself in the Dao of Calligraphy for so many years could differentiate that minute trace of difference!

Ignoring other things, just how high was Ye Yuan's attainments on the Sword Dao?!

This match was not lost unjustly!

"Myriad Dao laws, all lead to the same destination! The concepts might be different in endless ways, but they also have many common aspects. Although I have yet to research in depth into the Dao of Calligraphy, I've seen before extremely powerful Calligraphy Dao experts, so I'm also rather familiar with the Dao of Calligraphy. Hence, that's why I can mimic Calligraphy Dao with Sword Dao," Ye Yuan said.

The extremely powerful calligraphy dao expert that Ye Yuan was talking about was actually the Heavenly Book Divine King.

Except, no matter how big a hole Luo Chengfeng and the rest excavated in their brain, they could not imagine what kind of existence this so-called extremely powerful calligraphy dao expert was like.

Ji Qingyun and his father had exceedingly high status in the Divine Realm. They were acquainted with most of the Divine King powerhouses.

Although the Heavenly Book Divine King was a more eccentric member of the Ten Great Supreme Divine Kings, he used to have pretty good relations with Ye Yuan.

And Ye Yuan had also witnessed with his own eyes the great battle between the Heavenly Book Divine King and other divine kings. It was truly heaven startling and caused the gods to weep!

Compare to the Heavenly Book Divine King, this Imperial Law True Book of Luo Chengfeng was simply weak to the max!

Ye Yuan originally had tremendously high perception and also comprehended a supreme true intent on Sword Dao. In addition to having witnessed the Heavenly Book Divine King's Dao of Calligraphy before, wanting to mimic Luo Chengfeng's moves was not something hard.

Ye Yuan's factors were much better than Luo Chengfeng's. If he could not even mimic such a low-level concept, then he would really be too useless.

"What a fine phrase: myriad Dao laws, all lead to the same destination! Junior Apprentice Brother's perception is freakishly high. Even though it's just mimicking my concept, if Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's concept isn't extremely high, I'm afraid that it's also impossible to have such a battle result. This Luo is fully convinced of my loss!" Finishing, Luo Chengfeng cupped his fists and left.

Far away, Xiao Jiang and Mo Yuntian stood with their hands behind their backs. They had just watched the battle between Ye Yuan and Luo Chengfeng."

"Oh, Yuntian, what you said was right. A monster like Ye Yuan, my Tranquil Cloud Sect might not have the destiny to contain him! About his strength, how do you view it?" Xiao Jian suddenly asked.

Mo Yuntian said, "Junior Apprentice Brother Ye's sword intent most likely already surpassed mine by far too much. It even . . . uh, if my conjectures are right, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye probably already fully comprehended the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art on the Nine Heavens Road!"

Xiao Jian turned to look at Mo Yuntian. He said with a chuckle, "If he surpassed me, then he surpassed me. What's there to avoid saying? I wonder which rock this boy jumped out from, to actually have such monstrous talent! In the thousands of years since the establishment of my Tranquil Cloud Sect, there have only been a mere three individuals who can comprehend the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent in its entirety! This boy is only 15 years old and actually comprehended such a profound sword intent fully. Truly remarkable!"

Mo Yuntian felt slightly awkward as he said, "Junior Apprentice Brother Ye is a dragon among men. As long as he doesn't plummet, he will surely be able to ascend to the Divine Realm in the future! Furthermore, I feel that his talent might even be stronger than Forefather You Wuya's. Even after he arrives in the Divine Realm, he can most likely become the powerhouse of a domain!"

Xiao Jian nodded. He clearly approved of Mo Yuntian's view.

To be able to fully comprehend a true intent at the age of 15, such a freak should not have appeared in the Endless World.

"Yuntian, did you discover that Ye Yuan's sword intent seems to have some different aspects?"

Mo Yuntian was rather surprised. Although he also comprehended much of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent, he was obviously not as sensitive compared to Xiao Jian.

If they talked about it, the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent that Tian Yu comprehended was even stronger than Mo Yuntian's!

Mo Yuntian shook his head. Xiao Jian's gaze turned stern as he said, "Ye Yuan's sword intent is not purely Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent! If my conjectures are correct, he even comprehended some other sword intent!"

"Other sword intent?" Mo Yuntian had a baffled look. He did not know what this meant.

Xiao Jian nodded and said, "It's clear that Ye Yuan's sword intent carries the shadow of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent, but there is a trace of nimbleness and elegance within the sword intent. In my opinion, Ye Yuan most likely already comprehended a type of sword intent before challenging the Nine Heavens Road. When he was challenging the Nine Heavens Road, he comprehended the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent too. The most terrifying thing is that he already fused these two types of sword intent into one!"

Mo Yuntian revealed an astonished look. He knew that Ye Yuan's sword intent was extremely powerful, but he did not think that Ye Yuan's sword intent was already powerful to this sort of extent!

As a sword cultivator, Mo Yuntian was deeply aware that fusing concepts was even harder than comprehending two kinds of concepts!

"Ye Yuan fully comprehending the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art meant mastering a type of true intent. If he merged another kind of concept, then just what realm is he at?" Mo Yuntian felt that his mind could not quite wrap itself around it.

Xiao Jian shook his head and said, "I don't know either! But there is bound to be even higher realms above true intent! Those are realms belonging to the Divine Realm's powerhouses! I wonder what the other sword intent Ye Yuan fused it with is like. If it's also a type of true intent, then that would be terrifying!"

Limited by own worldview, Xiao Jian did not know what realm was above true intent. He himself did not even fully comprehend a type of true intent. But he knew that there was surely even higher realms above true intent. Otherwise, what did those powerhouses in the Divine Realm cultivate?

Xiao Jian was also not sure what realm fusing two kinds of true intent would reach, because in the Endless World, possessing one type of true intent already meant an immensely powerful expert!

It was said that there were major powers in the Northern Domain who fused two types of true intent, but as for what kind of realm those major powers were at, Xiao Jian had completely no clue.

In reality, under most circumstances, it was impossible to produce a supreme true intent even by merging two types of true intent.

In the Divine Realm, there were many experts who fused two types of concepts, but very few of them could cultivate to the Divine King realm. The reason was that they could not comprehend a supreme true intent!

Mo Yuntian sucked in a deep breath and said, "This shouldn't be very likely, right? While Ye Yuan's talent is astonishing, to merge two types of true intent at this age . . ."

Mo Yuntian felt that this already exceeded his boundary of understanding and instinctively felt that it was impossible.

Xiao Jian laughed wryly and said, "Haha, actually, I also feel that this is not very likely. True intent isn't some cabbage that can be comprehended as you like. Ye Yuan could comprehend the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent primarily is still because he barged into the Nine Heavens Road under coincidence. I reckon that he only added in the nimble and elegance concept that he comprehended before that into the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent."

Chapter 268: Battling Tang Yu-er!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

As expected, yet also a complete surprise.

Tian Yu, Tang Yu-er, and Ye Yuan entered the final four, while Luo Chengfeng was tragically eliminated, blocked outside the final four.

It was expected because Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er entering the final four was within reason.

But it was a surprise because before this grand competition, nobody would have thought that No. 52 could actually charge into the final four!

The other person who made it into the final four was called Sui Liang, precisely the other one the two half-step Crystal Formation Realms.

The face-off for the semi-finals was already out. Ye Yuan versus Tang Yu-er, and Tian Yu versus Sui Liang!

There was basically no suspense for Tian Yu versus Sui Liang. Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan's match clearly became everyone's focal point.

Ye Yuan overcame all the obstacles along the way, and even Luo Chengfeng fell to him. This made the originally lifeless sect grand competition suddenly became lively.

Everybody wanted to see what step Ye Yuan could walk to!

Although Ye Yuan defeating Luo Chengfeng in the previous battle made everyone's glasses fall off, everybody could sense that Ye Yuan's fight with Luo Chengfeng was not as easy as with Zhang Jing.

And Tang Yu-er's strength was not because Luo Chengfeng did not use his weapon!

Everyone knew that even if Luo Chengfeng used his weapon, the result would also be the same!

Hence, Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's match was even more anticipated than with Tian Yu.

Tian Yu used the sword. Whether he could gain any advantages in a battle against Ye Yuan was another matter altogether. But Tang Yu-er did not use a sword. If Ye Yuan could even beat Tang Yu-er, he would only be a step away from number one.

Yes, at the semi-finals, Tian Yu did not seem too promising instead!

Not because he wasn't strong enough, but because he used swords!

Tian Yu was strong because of his sword. But facing Ye Yuan, his sword became his greatest shortcoming instead!

The semi-finals were about to commence. Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's platform was already surrounded until not even water could flow through!

"Quickly look! Isn't that Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu? There's also Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng Wu and the rest! The elite disciples actually came to watch Ye Yuan's match too!"

"What's so strange about that? The elite disciples' matches have already ended. Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu won rank one without any contest! And Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng Wu is third from the bottom. He will be competing with our core disciples' number one. Coming to check on his opponent's strength is something very natural."

"Then why did Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu come over?"

"Hehe, with Ye Yuan's degree of monstrousness, he'll most probably cause a threat to Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu before long. Isn't it very normal for him to come and take a look at his future adversary? I reckon that the number of elite disciples who came to watch the match is not small!"

The elite disciples' grand competition was already all finished at this time.

Ti Wujiu became the number one elite disciple uncontestably with the battle result of 19 complete victories!

But Cheng Wu ultimately could not shake off the bottom three rankings. According to the sect rules, he would have to undergo a final match with the number one core disciple to determine who stays and leaves.

Hence, it was very crucial to Cheng Wu who obtains rank one.

"Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, who do you think can obtain rank one?" Cheng Wu asked rather flusteredly.

Ti Wujiu shook his head however and said, "It has already been a very long time since the previous grand competition. Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er both made significant progress. But as for how much they improved, nobody knows. Moreover, there's even a Ye Yuan who popped out this time. Whose hands the number one lands in is really still an unknown."

Cheng Wu's eyes lit up as he said with a smile, "Do you think Ye Yuan can beat both Tang Yu-er and Tian Yu? Heh heh, if he can get number one, then that would be great!"

Ti Wujiu shot Cheng Wu a glance and said with a chuckle, "Hur hur, I, on the other hand, think that it's best if you don't bump into Ye Yuan."

Cheng Wu asked in puzzlement, "No way! Although this Ye Yuan is impressive, I, Cheng Wu, can't possibly lose to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, right?"

Cheng Wu was at the First Level Crystal Formation Realm. While his strength was near the bottom among the elite disciples, that was only relative to the elite disciples.

Towards the vast majority of core disciples, his talent was absolutely those super strong types.

Even though Ye Yuan's talent was heaven-defying, Cheng Wu was a major realm higher than him. How could Ye Yuan possibly be his match?

This sort of crushing in terms of cultivation realm could not be turned around with talent!

Ti Wujiu said, "Ye Yuan's might in sword intent realm surpasses everyone's imagination! If my speculations are right, he might have already grasped the Azure Dipper Purple Yang True Intent! Even if he has not fully grasped it, it's most likely more or less there already. If you really encounter him, it's best to be careful. Take care not to be careless!"

Cheng Wu sucked in a cold breath when he heard that. He knew that Ye Yuan's sword intent was very strong, but did not think that it was powerful to such an extent!

Even the sect master did not grasp the Azure Dipper Purple Yang True Intent. Ye Yuan already grasped it at this age?

No wonder he could lift something heavy like it was light when fighting Zhang Jing.

"Then Senior Apprentice Brother mean that . . . Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er are in danger this time?"

Ti Wujiu shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er are both people who are outstandingly talented, and their realms are so much higher than Ye Yuan's realm. They naturally have the strength to battle it out. What I want to see now is . . . what method Tian Yu will use to fight with Ye Yuan when he's being suppressed in terms of Sword Dao!"

Cheng Wu was speechless. He originally thought that Ye Yuan was a soft persimmon who is easy to knead. Now, it seemed like nobody was a soft persimmon!

Cheng Wu was aware of Sui Liang's strength. Without any accidents, the top three would be Tian Yu, Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan.

Except, this final ranking was not easy to determine.

Tian Yu who seemed to be the most promising at first had lesser advantages than Tang Yu-er now.

Cheng Wu felt somewhat in a mess.On the platform, Tang Yu-er was dressed in a fiery-red fine gauze but appeared lofty and proud.

That unparalleled appearance did not lose to the Nanfeng aunt and niece.

However, those underestimate her because she was a peerless beauty would definitely suffer a huge loss!

In the previous grand competition, Tian Yu once suffered a huge loss in Tang Yu-er's hands and was nearly defeated!

Tang Yu-er looked at Ye Yuan who was opposite coldly and said, "Ye Yuan, you're indeed very strong! But, you'll stop here!"

Ye Yuan was stunned when he heard that. He did not think that Tang Yu-er would be so overbearing right after coming up.

"Haha, not only is Senior Apprentice Sister beautiful, but this aura is also so imposing!" Ye Yuan said with a laugh.

Tang Yu-er's face grew colder. Her impression of Ye Yuan became even worse. "Humph! Lecher! I'll definitely make a fool out of you later!"

Tang Yu-er's heart was higher than the heavens. Ordinary disciples did not even enter her eyes. Therefore, there were many people who secretly had a crush on her, but not many who confessed their feelings.

There was once somebody who was beaten up until he had to lie on the bed for two months after confessing to her. Ever since then, everyone could only put their affection and admiration away in their hearts.

Ye Yuan calling her beautiful right after coming up naturally made her put him in the same category as lechers.

Ye Yuan laughed in spite of himself and said, "Senior Apprentice Sister is as beautiful as a flower, but won't let others praise you. Isn't it an insult to your beauty?"

Tang Yu-er flew into a great rage when she heard that. "Humph! Indeed a conceited and insolent person! I hope that you can still laugh in a while!"

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"To dare take liberties with Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er like this, Ye Yuan's guts are really fat!"

"Hehe, he has the strength. He might even be thinking of taking this opportunity to court Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er!"

"Speaking of which, the two of them, their ages and strength are around the same. It's really a perfect match between an able man and a fair maiden! Furthermore, with Ye Yuan's potential, he'll definitely surpass Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er in the future. If they were to become a pair, it would become a story that will be passed down!"

"Bah! Is that snotty brat Ye Yuan even good enough for Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er?"

"Haha, you're envying and hating out of jealousy, right? I know that you've had a crush on Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er for a very long time already!"Actually, Ye Yuan was just purely praising. He did not think to incur Tang Yu-er's wrath.

But the way the other disciples saw it, Ye Yuan's words like this were already blatant flirtation. It was just that Ye Yuan's strength stood head and shoulders above all others, so he obviously had the qualifications to pursue Tang Yu-er.

However, those disciples who had been secretly crushing on Tang Yu-er for a long time were naturally very displeased by this.

Once the battle began, Tang Yu-er's red ribbon shot towards Ye Yuan to tangle him up.

Relying on Spirit Void Shattering Space, Ye Yuan's speed was no longer beneath late-stage Spirit Condensation Realm martial artists!

Seeing the red ribbon snaking over, he easily evaded with a flash.

But right then, Ye Yuan only felt his head sink, his entire body becoming sluggish.

Divine soul mystic arts!

Ye Yuan did not think that Tang Yu-er's trump card was actually a divine soul mystic art!

"Heh heh, Ye Yuan fell for it as expected! Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er is the strongest at illusionary arts. In the last grand competition, even Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu fell for it and nearly lost."

"Ye Yuan has been enjoying too much success recently. He most likely didn't inquire about Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's trump card! Under the same realm, virtually nobody can escape from Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's illusions. Ye Yuan is only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm; only a minor stage lower than Yu-er in divine soul realm. He's doomed!"

"Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er was already furious earlier, she'll most definitely be ruthless to Ye Yuan! Even if she doesn't screw with him until he becomes an idiot, he can't escape lying in bed for several days!"

"Haha, if Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er really has vicious intent, perhaps Senior Apprentice Brother Sui Liang still has a possibility for entering the top three!"

On the platform, Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan both stopped moving. Ye Yuan's eyes became vacant holes as if his soul was charmed.

Tang Yu-er closed her eyes however and did not move a muscle too.

Ye Yuan only felt his mind sink just now, but his entire person was brought to a different place.In the secular world, Ye Yuan became a wealthy family's scion. A graceful and beautiful body appeared in front of his eyes.

The girl in front of him was beautiful to the extreme, but not a trace of clothing was on her!

That body which made people nosebleed could make any man go berserk.

Ye Yuan looked at the attire he was wearing and back at the nude woman on the other side, and could not help shaking his head and laughing.

This Tang Yu-er really took him to be an extremely perverted lecher.

'Young Master, let this Servant serve you in bed."

The woman's sweet melodious voice rung beside Ye Yuan's ear. A pair of water snake like jade arms twined around Ye Yuan's neck. It was exceedingly alluring.

Ye Yuan was not some sage. In front of a genuine beauty, he would naturally show the reaction that a man should display.

Except that Tang Yu-er employing illusions in front of Ye Yuan was kind of like playing with a large saber in front of Guan Yu.

Illusionary arts were actually an important branch of divine soul mystic arts. Its power was extremely great and could kill people imperceptibly.

Illusionary arts were similarly a Great Dao. When cultivated to the limits, it could transform the foul and rotten into the rare and ethereal!

Powerful illusionary martial artists could kill their foes undetectably and also make the other party fall into an illusionary realm forever, becoming a living corpse!

What's more, the other party would be fully aware that they were inside an illusion world but could not escape no matter what!

This sort of endless sinking was sometimes scarier than killing the opponent!

If the caster did not release the illusion, the other party would never wake from the illusion, just like a samsara cycle, all the way until death!

The first time Ye Yuan laid eyes on this woman, he knew what Tang Yu-er was trying to do.

She wanted to make him immerse himself in the embrace of women inside the illusion and be unable to extricate himself!

Once he wallowed in the pleasures of the flesh, the Ye Yuan in the real world would also do some repulsive actions.

If that happened, Ye Yuan would become the joke of the entire sect.

One had to say that this move by Tang Yu-er was certainly quite vicious. If Ye Yuan really succumbed to it, then no matter how talented he was, he would have no face to stay on in the sect after this.

Women had always been incomprehensible creatures. Ye Yuan already had a taste of that many times. Although this move by Tang Yu-er was really deriding, Ye Yuan did not get too angry.

But Ye Yuan was not some clay bodhisattva that could be kneaded however others liked.

Ye Yuan decided to prank this Tang Yu-er good. It could be considered her punishment.

Facing the woman's teasing, Ye Yuan grabbed her arm and threw her ruthlessly to one side, saying with a cold sneer, "That won't be necessary! Tell me who sent you here!"

Ye Yuan rebuked with a stern countenance, but the woman kept silent like a cicada in winter. She said weakly, "N-No one! This Servant . . . This Servant only admires young master. That's why . . . That's why I took the initiative to offer my body! If Young Master can't trust this Servant, then I'm willing to apologize with death! Sniff, sniff . . ."

The woman cried pitifully and behaved like she wanted to run into the wall to commit suicide. But Ye Yuan just sneered and said, "Don't pretend to be innocent in front of me! As the successor to the capital's Ye Family, what kind of woman have this Young Master not seen before? How can you pass the test in front of me with your inferior acting? Go and hit! Just ahead!"

That woman really stopped after hearing that.

In the illusion world, Tang Yu-er who was concealed in a covert location secretly sniggered to herself coldly. "Didn't think that this lecher has some capabilities. To actually not fall for it easily! However, you've already taken the place of your identity. Can you still escape from this Young Lady's palm?"

The nude woman put away her seductive expression and wore her garments. She said to Ye Yuan with a smile, "Young Master Ye indeed has great powers of concentration! Actually, I'm under the orders of my family's missus to come and probe Young Master Ye!"

Ye Yuan snickered to himself secretly, but looked doubtful on the surface as he asked, "You family's missus is?"

"My family's missus is the Tang Family's eldest miss. She has long heard that Mister is the number one scholar in the capital and has admired you for a long time. It's just that she doesn't know Mister's nature, that's why she sent me to test Mister. Having met today, Young Master indeed see things as clear as viewing a fire; an extremely wise and far-sighted person!" The woman sighed with admiration.

When Ye Yuan heard that, his expression eased up slightly, but he still pretended to be peeved as he said, "So, it's the Tang Family's eldest miss! This Ye has also long heard that the Tang Family's eldest miss has national beauty and heavenly fragrance, and is even an erudite among women. It's just that your family's missus using this kind of method to test me is really going too far! A fair lady is a gentleman's good mate, but this Ye is absolutely not those profligate and immoral people! Please return and inform Miss Tang that this Ye is unable to enjoy her admiration!"

In secret, Tang Yu-er's face changed when she heard that. If Ye Yuan were really impervious to everything, then her illusion would reveal flaws sooner or later, then Ye Yuan would be able to escape!

Tang Yu-er could not accept such an outcome!

Chapter 270: Quietly Changing Hands

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Humph! Looks like this lecher is definitely lusting after my looks; that's why he is so indifferent to other people! Since that's the case, this Young Lady will beat him at his own game and play tricks on this lecher!"

Tang Yu-er had absolute faith in her looks and illusion skills. Wasn't it effortless to deal with a young man who was impetuous like Ye Yuan?

It was just that thinking about being taken advantage of by Ye Yuan in the illusion world made Tang Yu-er feel very disgusted even though she in the illusion world was not the real her.

"Please calm your anger, Young Master Ye. My family's missus said that if you can remain unperturbed by a woman in your lap, then the final wariness she has towards you would also be gone. In order to offer an apology, Miss Tang has set up a banquet in the VIP building and invited Young Master Ye to go there," the servant said serenely.

A flicker of delight flashed across Ye Yuan's eyes when he heard that, and this look was naturally caught by Tang Yu-er who was observing in the dark.

"Humph! Indeed playing hard to get! Watch how this Young Lady plays with you in the palm of my hands!" Tang Yu-er cackled coldly.

"I've long heard that Miss Tang is the most beautiful person in the capital, but I didn't think that she was in love with this Ye. Since that's the case, this Ye will proceed there! However, never use this kind of trick to mess with me again!" Ye Yuan said.Ye Yuan only felt his eyes blur. Two days had already passed.

In the illusion, the caster could freely switch time and space, but the person who was under the spell would be oblivious and think that it was as a matter of course instead.

Except, to Ye Yuan, such an illusion was really too low-level.

Although the previous life's Ji Qingyun was a trash in the Martial Dao, he was an existence at the peak of perfection regarding the attainments on the divine soul.

He had every kind of divine soul mystic arts at the tip of his fingers.

How could a puny little half-step Crystal Formation Realm martial artist's illusion make him fall for it?

Not to mention, Ye Yuan's present divine soul realm was already even stronger than high-rank Alchemy King. It was not any weaker compared to Tang Yu-er.

Under the circumstances where the strength of the divine souls was around the same, Tang Yu-er was even less likely to make him fall under the spell.

Ye Yuan was only messing with Tang Yu-er right now, that was why he pretended to be under the spell. If he was willing, he could leave this illusion at any time and also heavily injure Tang Yu-er's divine soul.

Inside the VIP building's reserved room, Tang Yu-er was wearing a light green fine gauze clothing. Truly beautiful to the extreme.

Compared to the Tang Yu-er on the platform who was in martial attire, this Tang Yu-er had a portion more of delicateness and good-naturedness, and less overbearingness.

When Ye Yuan saw Tang Yu-er, he also became absent-minded for a split second. When this scene landed in Tang Yu-er's eyes, there was naturally a few more parts of disgust.

Ye Yuan did not think that Tang Yu-er would actually have such a gentle and soft side. He wondered if the Tang Yu-er, in reality, would also have such a side.

"A few days ago, Yu-er was somewhat brusque. Today, I've prepared some thin wine to specially make up to Young Master Ye. I hope that Young Master Ye won't take to heart my prior transgressions and bury the hatchet with Yu-er."

When the words came out of her mouth, Tang Yu-er was filled with the grace of a young lady from an eminent family.

Ye Yuan secretly found it funny but was nonchalant on the surface as he said, "Miss Yu-er is too polite. As a real man, why would this Ye quibble with a celestial fairy-like miss like Yu-er?"

Tang Yu-er raised her wine cup and showed a happy expression as she said, "Since that's the case, how about Mister Ye please drink this toast with me?"

Ye Yuan smiled and downed his cup in one go.

After a cup of wine, the pair each with their own wicked plans started to chat like good friends of many years.

Ye Yuan started chatting about distant lands randomly, making Tang Yu-er yearn for more.

Ye Yuan talked from the mundane world to the martial artist world, from the Martial Dao to the Alchemy Dao. His encyclopedic knowledge and extensiveness of what he had seen and heard before made Tang Yu-er unconsciously forget that she was inside an illusion world.

Ye Yuan's knowledge and experience were simply not what Tang Yu-er could hope to match. Even inside an illusion, that sort of faint feeling from being someone from a higher realm would also leak out unwittingly.

Such disposition had absolute lethality towards women.

The Tang Yu-er who cast the illusion was gradually substituted by Ye Yuan.

Illusions were a type of very delicate divine soul mystic arts.

Under most circumstances, the caster would be the absolute master of the illusion world. But if they encountered an expert with extremely powerful soul force, the pressure on the caster would be enormous.

Take Tang Yu-er for example. With her divine soul realm plus the power of an illusionary divine soul mystic art, she could make the other party descend into an illusionary realm when facing ordinary Crystal Formation Realm experts.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the other party did not deliberately cultivate their divine soul.

Tang Yu-er's illusions were very easy to fall for, for martial artists. But if she faced an Alchemy Grandmaster, then it would not be so useful.

All in all, Tang Yu-er's illusions were very powerful and could even let her leap ranks to battle!

But Ye Yuan's understanding towards illusions and divine soul was simply not what Tang Yu-er could compare to.

Having fallen into the illusionary realm for such a long time, it looked to be uninteresting like water, but in reality, it was the struggle between Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's divine soul.

It was just that Ye Yuan intentionally appeared weak in front of his opponent, so Tang Yu-er thought that she held the initiative the entire time.

But in reality, Ye Yuan had already gotten the initiative unknowingly and also dragged Tang Yu-er into the illusion instead.

At the current moment, the Tang Yu-er in green garment opposite Ye Yuan could be said to be Tang Yu-er in the flesh already.

It was just that the Tang Yu-er who fell to the illusion was completely unaware.

What was even more lethal was that Ye Yuan, through the disposition he unintentionally exhibited in addition to his young and handsome appearance, had already deep enthralled Tang Yu-er who was opposite him!

Because in the illusion, Ye Yuan was still Ye Yuan himself, but Tang Yu-er was no longer Tang Yu-er.

Tang Yu-er had already taken the place of her character. She was merely a secular beauty.

Facing the young and abstruse Ye Yuan, Tang Yu-er had already inadvertently fallen in love.

At this very moment, the one controlling the illusion was no longer Tang Yu-er but had silently changed to Ye Yuan.In the illusionary world, time flowed like water.

Today, the Ye Family's young master was taking the Tang Family's daughter as his wife. A wedding ceremony was held in the capital, causing a sensation. A perfect match between an able man and a fair lady, everyone was envious.

A year later, Tang Yu-er gave birth to Ye Yuan's child. Holding her son in her hands, Tang Yu-er's face was filled with bliss. This was the crystallization of Ye Yuan and her love. And that very year, Ye Yuan spurred his horse as he wielded his sword, becoming a military official of the empire.

Five years later, Ye Yuan returned victoriously with illustrious achievements in war and was conferred as the youngest general in the empire. Tang Yu-er led the people to welcome him several miles outside of the city. Looking at her valiant and heroic husband, she was full of pride.

15 years later, Ye Yuan became a different surnamed prince, holding enormous power in the court. Tang Yu-er became a princess consort. For many years, the husband and wife treated each other with respect and affection, helping each other in times of need.

After 50 years, Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er propagated for generations and had many children and grandchildren. The Ye Family became one of the major families in the empire.

After 70 years, the pair leaned into each other while holding hands, their heads completely white, and fell asleep . . .

Just like that, their entire life passed by.

While in reality, two hours had gone by.

Ye Yuan's eyes remained vacant holes as if he was completely dominated by Tang Yu-er.

While opposite him, Tang Yu-er had a blissful face at times, a flushed face at other times, all kinds of expressions varying.

The audience below the platform clicked their tongues in surprise.

Chapter 271: Big Brother Ye Yuan

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"These two people have already been standing on the platform for over two hours. Just who has the advantage right now?"

"I can't figure it out! Ye Yuan had that lifeless expression from the start and seems to be controlled by Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er. But the victor hasn't been decided until now. The expression on Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's face is very rich and looks like she is expending a great deal of effort. I just can't figure out what the hell is going on."

"A match like this is so boring. We can't even see how they fight. The two of them are just staring at each other, staring for over two hours already."

"A duel with illusions is sometimes even more perilous than a fight between martial artists! With your paltry strength, once you fall under Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's illusion, she can turn you into an idiot with a snap!"

Speaking of which, the highly anticipated battle that everyone was originally looking forward to became utterly boring right now.

The two people only made one move from the start till now, then fell into a situation where they just stared at each other.

It was fine if they just stared at each other. If Ye Yuan was taken down by Tang Yu-er, he should show all sorts of ugly behaviors.

Or if Tang Yu-er's illusion could not do anything to Ye Yuan and he achieved victory instead. Everyone could accept these two kinds of result.

But the pair just had to be in a stalemate the entire time. Furthermore, the two people's conditions were very odd, leaving everyone unaware just who held the advantage until now.

Suddenly, Tang Yu-er gave a muffled groan on the platform and flopped weakly onto the ground.

Ye Yuan's eyes also regained clarity at this time. He clasped his hands at Tang Yu-er and said with a smile, "Yu-er . . . Senior, thank you."

Ye Yuan deliberately dragged out the intonation in saying Yu-er, making it sound weird when one heard it.

Tang Yu-er's soul force was overly exhausted currently and no longer had the strength to battle again.

She lifted her head and looked at the grinning Ye Yuan with shame and rage filling her heart. Just now, inside the illusion world, she actually spent a lifetime with Ye Yuan and even helped to propagate his bloodline!

This was simply unprecedented shame and humiliation!

After the shame and anger, the hatred in Tang Yu-er's heart grew massively, her gaze when looking at Ye Yuan became filled with killing intent!

Even though it was only inside the illusion world, that sort of feeling of her purity being sullied still trailed closely behind like a shadow!

Tang Yu-er never imagined that this lecher also had such high attainments in terms of illusionary arts.

She still could not figure out until now how both parties quietly swapped roles and also how Ye Yuan dragged her inside the board. This kind of method was simply unimaginable!

One had to know that this illusion world was set up by Tang Yu-er! Ye Yuan actually took over the illusionary realm that she set unknowingly and even brought her inside, making her a target that the other party could freely manipulate as he liked!

Tang Yu-er gritted her teeth in hatred and wished that she could grind Ye Yuan's bones to dust and scatter them to the wind!

"Ye Yuan, I'm warning you! If you dare to speak about the matters inside the illusion world, I'll make you wish that you were dead! " Tang Yu-er transmitted her voice to warn.

Ye Yuan replied, "Haha, I have an illness, which is that I can't endure being frightened. Once you frighten me, my mouth will start to run and tell the outside world about anything. Yu-er . . . Senior . . . you see . . ."

Tang Yu-er's face changed. "You dare threaten me?"

"How would I dare to threaten Yu-er . . . Senior, earlier, it was clearly Yu-er . . . Senior who was threatening me." Ye Yuan deliberately dragged out the intonation of the word Yu-er again.

Tang Yu-er was on the verge of collapse. She said frostily, "Speak! What terms do you want?! I'm warning you, don't go too overboard! Something like a toad wishing to eat swan meat, don't even think about it!"

Ye Yuan beamed and said, "Hur hur, I'm not a toad, and you're also not a swan. However . . . my ears are very soft, why not you call me Big Brother Ye Yuan once and I'll erase this segment of memories. What do you think?"

Big Brother Ye Yuan was precisely the term that Tang Yu-er used to address Ye Yuan inside the illusion world. At that time, the pair were as inseparable as glue and lacquer, closely attached to each other, and were extremely sticky together.

But asking Tang Yu-er to say it out, in reality, was even worse than killing her.

The first impression that Ye Yuan gave her was a lecher. Now that he also did such obscene things inside the illusion world, Tang Yu-er wished that she could kill him. How could she possibly call out such a mushy form of address?

"You . . . Dream on!"

"Oh, not calling? Then forget it, I couldn't care less either. Later, I'll find a few companions to have a conversation with. I believe that many people are dying to know just what happened on the stage today."

"You! Fine, I . . . I'll call!"

"En, I'm listening."

"B-Big . . . b-brother . . . Ye Yuan!"

Although it was a voice transmission, Tang Yu-er's voice was like a mosquito's buzz.

"Ah? What did you say? I didn't hear it!"

Tang Yu-er was so furious that her lovely body started to tremble, but she had no choice but to call out, "Big Brother Ye Yuan!"

The voice this time was loud. Except, it completely did not sound like it.

Ye Yuan grinned and said, "Sigh . . . Completely lacking that sort of feeling already. Listening to it doesn't give any flavor at all. Consider you pass then. I'll keep my mouth shut."

Ye Yuan just had a moment of mischievousness and played a prank on Tang Yu-er. They were in the same sect after all; Ye Yuan could not very well go too far, and so to just let it be at that.

Ye Yuan obviously knew that Tang Yu-er would hate him ever since, but he did not really mind.

To others, Tang Yu-er's illusions were very powerful. But to Ye Yuan, her illusions did not have any threat at all.

Tang Yu-er struggled to get up but still felt a little weak in her knees.

However, she remained standing there stubbornly and stared at Ye Yuan coldly as she said, "A loss means a loss. What's there to thank?"

Finishing, Tang Yu-er walked down the platform with some difficulty.

The audience looked at the obstinate Tang Yu-er and looked at Ye Yuan on the platform again. They gaped at each other speechlessly.

Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er who was ever triumphant by relying on illusionary arts actually lost just like this?

It seemed like . . . Ye Yuan was completely fine.

"Hey, Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er's soul force exhaustion is so great. Why does Ye Yuan look completely fine? Even if he won Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er, it shouldn't be without expending even a little bit of soul force, right?"

"Yeah, I find it strange too! Ye Yuan clearly fell under the illusion. But other than his eyes becoming vacant during the middle portion, it seems like there was no difference between the start and end at all. Such a situation is seriously too peculiar."

"Are you daft? I heard that Ye Yuan is even an alchemist! Perhaps his attainments on the divine soul are even more amazing than Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er!"

"You're the daft one! I'm also not blind and can see the badge Ye Yuan is wearing! It's just that his badge is only low-rank Alchemy Master. Even if he broke through to middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm, his soul force would only be middle-rank Alchemy Master. Having fought a battle with Senior Apprentice Sister Yu-er, how is it possible to not have any consumption at all?"

"This . . . This Ye Yuan is really leaking with peculiarity!"

Indeed, Ye Yuan continued the momentum of his consecutive victories and once again, caused an 'upset' in the status quo, defeating a top three opponent!

Tang Yu-er who had transcendent illusionary arts lost to Ye Yuan inexplicably just like that.

Nobody knew what kind of competition the pair experienced inside the illusion world. Both parties kept their mouth tightly sealed.

On the other platform, Tian Yu and Sui Liang's match had ended long ago.

Without any surprises, Tian Yu defeated Sui Liang.

The final round: Ye Yuan versus Tian Yu!

Chapter 272: Heavenly Sky Sect

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

The news about Ye Yuan entering the finals not only caused a huge uproar among the disciples, but the Tranquil Cloud Sect's upper echelons were also visibly stirred.

But different from those disciples, these elders all knew that Ye Yuan's accomplishments in the Alchemy Dao were tremendously remarkable.

To have such stunning achievements in the Alchemy Dao and the Martial Dao at the same time, was this boy even human?

"There are times when human strength just won't do! I really have no idea what kind of existence that master behind Ye Yuan is like. To actually raise such a freakish existence like Ye Yuan!"

"No matter what kind of existence he is, that is not an existence that our Tranquil Cloud Sect can afford to provoke! I feel that this master of Ye Yuan is most likely one of the pinnacle few beings in the Endless World! That Lord is probably going ascend to the Divine Realm before long, so that's why he was seized with a sudden impulse to find a disciple to inherit his mantle. However, the master initiates the apprentice, but their skill depends on their own efforts. For Ye Yuan to have such startling improvement, it's inseparable from his own bitter hard work," Xiao Jian chimed in.

Luo Qingfeng nodded. It was clear that his judgment was roughly the same as Xiao Jian's.

Ye Yuan's identity could not be clearer. He was a born and bred State of Qin citizen. Only those strongest few individuals in the Endless World had the ability to teach a genius like Ye Yuan.

Furthermore, the way this Lord taught disciples was different from others. He did not bring Ye Yuan along with him. He just taught him all of his abilities, then let Ye Yuan roam freely.

Of course, it could also be that that lord was monitoring Ye Yuan at all times. But an existence that like, as long as he did not wish for others to discover him, other people would never find him!

"What you are said is right. Even a more monstrous talent has to be vied for with one's own efforts. With Ye Yuan's performance in the State of Qin, this child's talent and temperament are excellent. It's no wonder that that lord would take fancy to him. However, for him to be able to soar to the skies with one move, the Nine Heavens Road contributed immensely! With Ye Yuan's personality, I think he'll surely remember my Tranquil Cloud Sect with some gratitude," Luo Qingfeng said.

Xiao Jian said in agreement, "This child is not the slightest bit soft-handed towards enemies, but he uses his life to protect those close to him. As long as we don't do something to chill his heart, when this child prospers in the future, he'll definitely provide some help and guidance. It's just that . . . the Heavenly Sky Sect seems to be increasingly restless recently! I also don't know if we can wait until the day Ye Yuan grows up."

Mentioning the Heavenly Sky Sect, Luo Qingfeng's brows also knitted slightly, his eyes showing deep trepidation.

Compared to the boundlessly vast expanse of the Northern Domain, the Southern Domain was not considered vast. Although sects stood in great numbers, on the whole, they were managed by eight great sects.

The Tranquil Cloud Sect was one of these eight great sects!

It's just that the Tranquil Cloud Sect's strength could only rank near the bottom of these eight great sects.

While this Heavenly Sky Sect was the sect with the greatest strength among the eight great sects!

Because they were the strongest, they were arrogant!

All manners of the Heavenly Sky Sect's overbearingness was renowned in the Southern Domain.

Especially in the recent few years, the Heavenly Sky Sect's various activities were gradually increasing in frequency. This made the sects with weaker strength like the Tranquil Cloud Sect naturally become nervous.

As the master of a sect, the pressure on Luo Qingfeng's shoulders was unimaginable by outsiders.

With Ye Yuan's monstrous talent, as long as he was given ten years, breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm should not be an issue.

At that time, with such a heaven-defying Soul Sea Realm powerhouse like Ye Yuan holding the fort, the Tranquil Cloud Sect would probably become an upper-ranked force among the great sects with a single bound. Then, they obviously did not need to fear the threat from the Heavenly Sky Sect anymore.

But the problem was whether or not the Heavenly Sky Sect would give Tranquil Cloud Sect time to develop peacefully for ten years!

Luo Qingfeng gave a faint sigh and said, "The matter on hand is that our Tranquil Cloud Sect still needs another Soul Sea Realm powerhouse to appear as soon as possible. Or else, we probably can't escape the outcome of being annexed!"

Xiao Jian also gave a sigh when he heard that. He said helplessly, "Soul Sea Realm . . .Talking is easy, but doing it is as hard as ascending to the heavens! Even with Martial Uncle Skymaple's outstanding talent, he only broke through to the Soul Sea Realm by a fluke. Back then when our Tranquil Cloud Sect migrated over from the Northern Domain, we were chased down by those fellows until there was no road to heaven and no gate into the earth, resulting in a loss of two volumes of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art. Otherwise, what has the present Southern Domain got to do with the Heavenly Sky Sect?"

One's starting point determines the height!

A thousand years ago, the Tranquil Cloud Sect had a great migration, but lost two volumes of the sect forte cultivation method, resulting in the members today finding that breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm was as hard as ascending to heaven.

Or else, with the Tranquil Cloud Sect's foundations, even if they were chased to the Southern Domain, it would not be to such an extent where it was so dismal.

And although the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art was relatively complete, without the Martial Dao cultivation method to raise cultivation realm, one could only look at but not eat what was at the back.

Fortunately, the Tranquil Cloud Sect's foundations were deep. There were those few geniuses in every generation who could forcibly breakthrough to the Soul Sea Realm through comprehending the sword intent on the Nine Heavens Road or by relying on their own perception.

Skymaple was one of them.

Except, to want to completely comprehend the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent on the Nine Heavens Road was something that was virtually impossible.

Cultivation methods and martial techniques were things that were expressed through texts. Comparatively, the clearer and easier it was to understand, the easier it would be to cultivate in as well.

But to talk about the completeness of sword intent, one might as well directly comprehend it.

When training in cultivation skills, regardless to what extent one trained to, it was impossible to fully comprehend You Wuya's true intent!

But on the Nine Heavens Road, one could completely grasp this true intent through that final sword!

However, this sort of thing could only be understood and not described. Even if Ye Yuan fully comprehended the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent, there was no way for him to describe it.

Otherwise, Xiao Jian and Luo Qingfeng would have long kidnapped Ye Yuan and forced him to write out the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art from memory every day.

"Every generation can only do their best! Among this batch of children, there are really quite a few fine saplings! As long as they mature, our Tranquil Cloud Sect will definitely rise up once again! And what we, these old fellows, have to do is to provide for them an environment that they can grow up in!" Luo Qingfeng said.

Xiao Jian nodded and said, 'Definitely!"

Luo Qingfeng's gaze landed on the platform in the distance again and asked, "What do you think about the match between Tian Yu and Ye Yuan?"

With the thoughts circling back to the grand competition, Xiao Jian also felt much more relaxed. He smiled and said, "Tian Yu is absolutely not someone who would let others freely slaughter him. Even if his strongest Sword Dao was sealed shut, he will not fold his arms and wait to die."

Luo Qingfeng nodded and said, "Martial Uncle Skymaple has a fine grandson! The speed of his improvement these two years is also something that I feel inferior to! Looks like the things he comprehended on the Nine Heavens Road back then was even more than me! Then your meaning is . . . you favor Tian Yu more?"

When he was young, Luo Qingfeng was the number one genius in the Tranquil Cloud Sect then, around the same as the present Tian Yu and Ti Wujiu.

But Tian Yu's improvement was visible to Luo Qingfeng's eyes. Compared to himself in those days, Luo Qingfeng was somewhat ashamed of his own inferiority.

Xiao Jian shook his head and said, "No! In contrast, I think Ye Yuan is more promising instead!"

"Oh? Why is that so? With my understanding of Tian Yu, this child should still have other trump cards!"

But Xiao Jian smiled and said, "Very simple! Ye Yuan, this child, cannot be measured using common sense!"

Chapter 273: Discarding Sword!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

The match had yet to begin, but the platform was already surrounded until not even water could trickle through.

On the platform, Tian Yu was meditating on the ground, a longsword placed horizontally across his crossed legs.

"Tsk tsk, this is the first time I'm seeing Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu taking a match so seriously. He actually arrived on scene an hour early!"

"It's nothing to wonder. Ye Yuan's sword intent is extremely powerful. I reckon that it can completely restraint Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu. Such a match is too stifling. There's no way even if Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu doesn't want to take it seriously!"

"Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's sword intent has already surpassed our imaginations. I've always chased after him as my goal. I didn't think that a Ye Yuan would jump out this time! After seeing his sword intent, I feel that there's no more hope in this lifetime,"

". . . That's really true! The might of Ye Yuan's sword intent can really make people despair!"

"I truly don't know how Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu plans on dealing with Ye Yuan's sword intent. Actually, I still hope that Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu can win. After all, he's the leader of us core disciples!"

Tian Yu's mind did not wander. He sat for an hour on the platform.

Not that Tian Yu was deliberately mystifying things, but because he really took this match very seriously!

Originally, it was just having a junior with tremendous power, but he did not think that in a blink of an eye, he became a powerful foe!

Especially Ye Yuan's words before moved Tian Yu's heart to a large extent.

Every martial artist knew the importance of walking their own path. But this was an extremely bumpy and arduous road! Not many dare to walk it!

From birth, people started with copying. Talking and walking were merely so.

The martial path was the same. From mimicking other people's path to trudging out one's own path.

But what was different about the martial path was that trudging out one's own path was too difficult. A single misstep and time would waste away, delaying cultivation time.

This way, the loss outweighed the gains!

Except, one's potential would be used up very quickly if they did not walk their own path. Then their cultivation realm in this lifetime would also halt there.

This was an optional question, but not every martial artist dared to make this decision.

If Tian Yu chose to walk his own path, once there was no progress within a few years, then all of the advantages he possessed now would fade into nothing!

Of course, if he carved out his own road, then he would walk much further in the future than he had walked now!

Tian Yu wanted to make a choice through this match!

Although he had watched a few of Ye Yuan's matches, to truly experience Ye Yuan's strength, it was naturally not as realistic as fighting him personally.

He wanted to see just which step had Ye Yuan reached!

"Ye Yuan arrived!" someone suddenly shouted from the crowd.

The crowd automatically opened up a path to let Ye Yuan through.

Looking at the Tian Yu who was currently meditation on the stage, Ye Yuan was also stunned.

Tian Yu also opened his eyes at this time and looked at Ye Yuan as he said calmly, "I know that you cleared the Nine Heavens Road at the Essence Qi Realm, and I thought that you would be a powerful foe of mine sooner or later. It's just that I didn't think this day would arrive so quickly!"

But Ye Yuan did not reply directly. Instead, he asked, "Did Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu reach long ago?"

Tian Yu nodded and said, "For an hour already. This battle is of utmost importance to me! I want to find my own Dao!"

Ye Yuan said, "Dao lies in the heart! With Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's talent, I believe that finding your own path won't be hard."

Tian Yu shook his head and said, "Those who know won't find it hard, those who find it hard don't know. It might perhaps be very easy to you, but not everybody has the courage to take this step!"

Ye Yuan had already reincarnated for some time and had more or less adjusted to life in the Lower Realms. But that sort of worldview he had that exceeded this plane was still frequently out of tune with the people and matters around him.

To people in the Divine Realm, grasping true intent was a very universal thing. But to people of the Lower Realms, true intent was far, far away.

Ye Yuan's words sounded like someone who did not try to see things from other people's perspective.

Tian Yu's talent was absolutely second to none in the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect, but when placed in the entire Southern Domain, it was not considered much. And the Southern Domain's geniuses were nothing much when placed in the entire Endless World.

In the entire Endless World, just how many people could grasp true intent?

Even if Tian Yu's talent was heaven-defying, grasping true intent was still something that was far from reach.

However, Ye Yuan had another way of looking at things. He smiled and said, "That's not right, Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu! I feel that for Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu, the saying that those who find it difficult don't know, doesn't exist. You should say that you're playing the game! As the saying went, the spectators see the game better than the players. How can Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu know that you can't if you don't jump outside of the chessboard?"

Tian Yu's expression changed when he heard that!

After chatting with Ye Yuan the previous time, Tian Yu had been reflecting on himself these two whole days. But Ye Yuan's words earlier struck the core of his heart!

Ye Yuan continued, "Cultivation is originally going against the heaven! Without a great dauntless heart, it's impossible to walk far! If you don't even have the courage to jump out of the chessboard, then your accomplishments in this lifetime would be limited to this!"

Tian Yu's body trembled when he heard this. The mental state that he adjusted for an hour was immediately shattered by Ye Yuan's words.

He knew that Ye Yuan's words were right. But wanting to take this step really required enormous courage!

Why could Long Tang comprehend the elementary form of true intent? It was because he sensed that fearless courage from Ye Yuan and cast away everything before finding his own path!

Otherwise, Long Tang would only be a bird inside the cage, forever unaware of what the skies outside looked like!

After keeping silent for a long time, Tian Yu held his sword and got up, saying, "Since that's the case, let me see your Dao!"

Ye Yuan said smilingly, "Please advise!"

Tian Yu did not attack right away, but opened his mouth again to say, "I'll only unleash one sword strike! Ye Yuan, let me see just how powerful your Sword Dao is!"

When he finished, Tian Yu's aura changed abruptly, as if his entire being became a sharp sword!

Tian Yu wielded his sword in front of his chest and drew a full moon. Then, he put away his sword momentum. The full moon peeled away, becoming four streaks of azure-colored sword qi, hurtling towards Ye Yuan!

"Luminous Moon High Above!" It's actually Luminous Moon High Above! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's improvement in this half a year is truly so swift that it makes my blood run cold!"

"Hiss . . . Luminous Moon High Above is an extremely powerful martial technique from the third layer of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art. Even Crystal Formation Realm disciples might not be able to comprehend this move! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu is only half-step Crystal Formation Realm, but he actually comprehended this move already!"

"Truly terrifying talent! If Ye Yuan did not appear, he would absolutely become a formidable foe for Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu! It's just that . . . is this move effective against Ye Yuan?"

Releasing the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art with four beams of sword qi, Tian Yu's comprehension towards sword intent had already reached a very high level.

Luminous Moon High Above, this move was exceedingly difficult to comprehend. Even among the sword cultivating elite disciples, only an extremely small number could comprehend it!

For Tian Yu to be able to comprehend this move at half-step Crystal Formation Realm, his talent was clear at a glance!

It was just that this move was still too weak towards Ye Yuan!

The Ye Yuan who had grasped the Azure Dipper Purple Yang True Intent was virtually immune to such moves.

Only to see him do a casual slash, four beams of sword qi similarly shot out, and actually reached first despite being released later, extinguishing Tian Yu's four streaks of sword qi.

Tian Yu gave a long sigh upon seeing the situation and directly discarded the sword in his hand!

Chapter 274: The Legend Ends?

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"No . . . No way! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu actually abandoned his sword!"

"Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's skills all lie on his sword! Since he abandoned the sword, could this be conceding defeat?"

"Sigh! A martial technique on the level of Luminous Moon High Above was snuffed out by Ye Yuan in the time it takes to raise a hand. What's there to fight still? At least this was Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu. If it were some other person, they most likely wouldn't even have the courage to use their sword in front of Ye Yuan!"

Seeing Tian Yu discarded his sword, it caused such a furor among the crowd.

A sword user forsaking his sword was undoubtedly breaking off an arm themselves. Tian Yu's action at this time made everyone think that he was going to admit defeat.

There was actually quite a number of people who already predicted this scene.

Ye Yuan's sword intent was seriously too powerful. It was simply an insurmountably huge mountain!

Ye Yuan stared at Tian Yu, but his expression became solemn.

This was absolutely not Tian Yu conceding. On the contrary, he definitely had other trump cards!

Because Tian Yu's current expression in his eyes was not dim like a failure's at all. Instead, it was brimming over with vigor and spirit, like the feeling of burning with eagerness to try.

"Indeed, the disparity between you and me is huge in terms of Sword Dao! Originally, I thought that you only comprehended the elementary form of true intent. Now, it seems like you've already completely grasped the Azure Dipper Purple Yang True Intent!"

When Tian Yu's words came out, it caused another huge commotion among the crowd.

Ti Wujiu who was always calm faltered slightly and said, "No wonder Ye Yuan is so formidable. Turns out he has already fully comprehended the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword intent! It looks like he comprehended it on the Nine Heavens Road. It's just that in the thousands of years since the establishment of our Tranquil Cloud Sect, only a scathing few people could fully comprehend the true intent that Forefather left behind. And these people were all members during the Northern Domain era. The recent few thousand years, not a single one could comprehend it in its entirety! This Ye Yuan is truly remarkable!"

Cheng Wu who was by the side was astounded long ago and sighed with a start, "True intent! Ye Yuan, he actually grasped true intent! That is true intent! How can it be grasped by people so easily? This . . . my opponent is actually somebody who grasped true intent?"

Ti Wujiu shot him a glance and comforted him. "Little Wu, this is an opportunity for you. Cast aside your thoughts about gains or losses. You'll reap great rewards."

But Cheng Wu said in a beaten manner, "Sigh, each and every one of you are too perverse! I don't have that level of perception. Exchanging blows with him is also futile."

Ti Wujiu shook his head while smiling and did not say any more.

He was aware of Cheng Wu's talent. Although not outstandingly talented, he was not those sort of ordinary, mediocre people.

It was just that his personality was reserved and he would easily flinch back when encountering problems. Such a personality was hard to accomplish anything great. Especially on the martial path, it was very difficult to have achievements.

Cheng Wu falling to the bottom of the elite disciples was not unrelated to his personality.

But it was useless for others to talk about this kind of thing no matter how much they try. He must realize it himself.

True intent, the weight that these two words represented was seriously too great. When the audience below the stage heard Tian Yu's words, they lost their cool.

"Did you hear what Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu just said? He said that Ye Yuan grasped true intent! It's grasped, not comprehended the elementary form of true intent!"

"Impossible! Doesn't this mean that Ye Yuan will surely become a powerhouse like Forefather You Wuya in the future? How many years has it been since a powerhouse like that has appeared in our Tranquil Cloud Sect?"

"I refuse to believe it! How is this possible? How can something like comprehending true intent be so easy?"

While debates ran wild below the stage, Ye Yuan who was opposite Tian Yu smiled and said, "Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu has sharp eyes. However . . . you're probably not going to admit defeat so easily, right?"

Tian Yu acknowledge it magnanimously, "Since you've already fully comprehended the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art, then all of my sword moves are already useless to you. I can only use other methods. While using strength to crush others is a little unorthodox, I no longer have any other options. As a martial artist, I don't wish to lose!"

The meaning of these words from Tian Yu was that he was going to use cultivation realm to crush Ye Yuan.

But Ye Yuan did not feel that there was anything inappropriate about that. Standing on the platform, nobody wanted to lose, including him, Ye Yuan!

Ye Yuan saw a thick fighting intent from Tian Yu's eyes, and he involuntarily understood in his heart.

Looks like the conversation previously had a huge impact on Tian Yu.

This match held extraordinary meaning to Tian Yu.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Where did this come from, Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu? Cultivation realm is originally a part of one's strength. How is this winning through unorthodox means? But I'm afraid that it isn't going to be so easy for Senior Apprentice Brother to win me!"

Senior Apprentice Brother burst into laughter and said, "Since that's the case, we'll know after competing!"

"Please, Senior Apprentice Brother!" Ye Yuan did an inviting gesture.

Tian Yu nodded and released his full aura. The aura belonging to a half-step Crystal Formation Realm was exhibited in its entirety!

"Careful, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye! I'm coming! Firecloud Finger!"

Tian Yu had not even finished talking when his entire person already vanished from where he was!

Ye Yuan's gaze condensed. A sense of extreme danger descended!

With his eyesight, he actually only saw a blurry silhouette of Tian Yu.

No time left to think, Ye Yuan directly wielded his sword and stabbed at that figure.

Only to hear a ding, the Canghua Sword which had never failed before actually slipped out his hand!

The Canghua sword drew a lone arc in the air and stabbed into the ground outside of the platform with a clang.

But Tian Yu did not give Ye Yuan more time to be astonished. With a turn, another finger attacked! Looking at Tian Yu's stance, it was actually to have a close-ranged tussle with Ye Yuan!

Ye Yuan did not dare to delay. Displaying Spirit Void Shattering Space to its limits, he barely managed to evade this attack.

However, this was merely the beginning! Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger attacked Ye Yuan like a furious tempest.

For a moment, danger surrounded Ye Yuan!

Below the stage, it was already dead silent long ago.

When Tian Yu discarded his sword, they all thought that the outcome of this battle was already set, but they did not expect the situation to change so suddenly. Ye Yuan's spirit artifact was actually blasted away from Tian Yu's finger, and he fell into the midst of a crisis.

The plot reversed too quickly. Everyone did not manage to react to it for some time.

"This . . . What's going on? Is that really Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu?"

"Firecloud Finger is a Tier 3 fire attribute martial technique! I never knew that Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu was actually so strong in terms of the concept of fire!"

"Yeah! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu had never used fire-attribute martial techniques before in front of others. Everybody thought that he only knew how to use the sword. Most likely, nobody would have thought that Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's fire attribute martial technique was actually so powerful!"

"Although the Firecloud Finger is only a low-grade Tier 3 martial technique, for Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu to be able to blast away Ye Yuan's spirit artifact, it's most likely already trained to the Great Circle Realm, right? He is only 18 years old this year. Not only did he comprehend an extremely powerful sword intent, he even comprehended the concept of fire to such a level! Truly heaven-defying!"

"Ye Yuan's in danger now! The reason he could leap ranks to battle so exaggeratedly before was by relying on his sword intent. Now that his sword has left his hand, it's equivalent to a bird losing its wings. Under such a situation where the gap in cultivation realm is so huge, defeat is something inevitable. However, his movement technique is incredibly swift. He can actually last so many moves under Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's attacks!"

"I initially thought that Ye Yuan was going to take the place of Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu this time, but I didn't think that the path through the mountain ridges would wind so. Looks like Ye Yuan's legend is going to end here!"

Chapter 275: Reversal!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Everyone did not think that Tian Yu actually trained fire attribute martial techniques to such a level.

On the platform, Tian Yu and Ye Yuan's movements were swift to the extreme. Only to see two afterimages flittering around over there.

Within the afterimages, a red light drew a very peculiar line. That was Tian Yu's fire-red finger.

The Firecloud Finger was an extremely powerful type of close-combat skill. Its might was extremely great!

Even if Ye Yuan were brushed by Tian Yu's fingertips, he would most likely lose his ability to fight immediately. If he were struck directly by it, then the outcome would be really hard to say.

Although Ye Yuan's strength was great, he was only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm after all. His protective essence energy was much weaker compared to a half-step Crystal Formation Realm.

Tian Yu did not treat Ye Yuan as an opponent who could not withstand a single blow. He was currently going all out and did not hold anything back!

Once any accidents happened, then the outcome would really be up in the air.

Xiao Jian and Luo Qingfeng who were presently spectating the battle from a distance were also filled with apprehension. With their vision, they could naturally see what was happening on the platform clearly.

It was precisely so that these two people's match appeared to be even more heart-startling and soul-stirring!

Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger did not leave Ye Yuan's vital points every move. Furthermore, his movements were very nimble. Each move was as swift as before, forcing Ye Yuan until he had no strength to retaliate!

"Sect Master, if it goes on like this, I fear that an accident will happen! Ye Yuan, he . . ." said Xiao Jian with worry, seeing Ye Yuan in a treacherous situation.

But Luo Qingfeng shook his head and said, "The clash between two great geniuses is something inevitable. This match holds extraordinary meaning. If you or I go out to prevent this match, it will be incredibly detrimental to them!"

"But fists and kicks have no eyes; what if something were to happen to Ye Yuan?"

"The birth of a peerless powerhouse is inevitably born from trampling on the shoulders of countless geniuses! If Ye Yuan doesn't make it past this round, it shows that he lacks the potential to become a peerless powerhouse. Moreover, if we move to stop this, Ye Yuan would lose. Geniuses can lose, but I think that Ye Yuan definitely would not wish to lose in such a manner!"

Seeing that Luo Qingfeng did not have any intention of stopping this, Xiao Jian was extremely worried. However, he also understood that what Luo Qingfeng said was very reasonable.

When Tian Yu abandoned his sword, Ye Yuan probably already guessed that he had some other backup plans.

Facing an expert like Tian Yu, Ye Yuan daring to continue the battle showed that he also wanted to win this match very much.

Thinking up to here, Xiao Jian forcibly suppressed the impulse to stop this and continue watching the match.

Tian Yu's attack became increasingly quicker. Ye Yuan already activated Essence Energy Ignition, barely avoiding Tian Yu's attacks by coupling it with Spirit Void Shattering Space!

But this move, Essence Energy Ignition, had one flaw, which was that the consumption rate of essence energy would surge!

In a match where the expenditure of essence energy was so titanic, how long could Ye Yuan's essence energy sustain it?

The situation was becoming progressively unfavorable to Ye Yuan! Once his essence energy was depleted, he could be in mortal danger!

"Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu is really too strong! The Firecloud Finger uses fire amplification concept to increase the attack power. He trained it to the Great Circle Realm. The attack power of his finger right now is probably no longer weaker than using his sword, right? Discarding the sword to use the finger. Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu is truly a combat genius!"

"Ye Yuan's might is also unexpected! To think that even without a sword in his hand, he can actually forcibly withstand so many moves from Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu! Furthermore, I see that Ye Yuan's movements seem to be faster than before. But in this short while, his essence energy has already depleted by nearly half. Most likely, he also has some ways of augmenting his movements, right?"

"Yeah! But Ye Yuan is trying to seek temporary relief regardless of the consequences! Once his essence energy is exhausted, he'll be in danger!"

"What you said is right! En? Hang on! Did you notice that Ye Yuan's speed seems to be increasing more and more, but the essence energy expenditure is gradually slowing?"

"That's true! If you didn't say, I wouldn't have noticed. Ye Yuan's essence energy expenditure was very rapid just now, but it became slower now! Moreover, the speed of him evading Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's attacks is becoming increasingly faster. Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu almost can't keep up with his speed anymore!"

"This . . . What's going on?"

On the platform, the more Tian Yu fought, the more alarmed he became!

Ye Yuan combusted his essence energy to raise his movement speed. The consumption of his essence energy increased several folds. Although it forcefully raised his speed for a period of time, just as that person said, it was a fighting style that sought temporary relief by disregarding consequences.

Because his movement speed augmented by him igniting his essence energy simply could not shake off Tian Yu's attacks.

After several dozen moves, Ye Yuan's essence energy could not quite support it anymore. His speed started to fall once more.

But Tian Yu became fiercer the more he fought by relying on his high cultivation realm and immense essence energy. His attacking speed did not lower but increased instead!

After waxing and waning, Ye Yuan's situation became increasingly more perilous!

Just a moment ago, Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger was virtually about to touch Ye Yuan already!

Just that tiny last stretch!

But who knew why, Ye Yuan's movement speed suddenly increased again!

Just now, Ye Yuan was clearly already at his limits. Why did it look like the last spurt of energy before collapsing?

Tian Yu's finger came closer and closer to Ye Yuan, and Ye Yuan's dodging also became increasingly relaxed, no longer as strenuous as before!

Finally, the tip of Ye Yuan's feet tapped lightly, and he dodged several dozen feet away, pulling apart the distance between him and Tian Yu!

"Sword Driving Technique!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Yuan let out a light cry, and soul force undulated out!

Not far away, Canghua Sword which was stabbed into the ground gave off a series of hums and actually moved by itself!

Tian Yu's expression changed drastically when he saw the situation. He pounced forward once more.

But how could Ye Yuan give him another chance?

Only to hear Canghua Sword pull out from the ground with a ding, then with a cold flash, it attacked Tian Yu directly!

The Canghua Sword flew through the air. Its speed was much faster than Tian Yu.

In only a blink of an eye, the Canghua Sword already arrived in front of Tian Yu!

Tian Yu could only give up on attacking Ye Yuan and turned around to deal with Canghua Sword.

Tian Yu's vision was exceedingly good. His finger once again accurately tapped the sword's body, blasting the Canghua Sword away.

Except that this time, the Canghua Sword did not land on the ground like before. Instead, it drew a single arc through the air and attack Tian Yu once more.

Just like this, one sword and a person actually tangled together!

Canghua Sword could not break through Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger, while Tian Yu similarly could not break past the Canghua Sword to attack Ye Yuan.

The pair entered a stalemate once again.

"This . . . What sword art is this? To actually . . . actually remotely control the sword to attack! Such an attack method is seriously inconceivable!"

"Just now, Ye Yuan clearly could not hold on anymore, why did his movements become increasingly faster all of a sudden like he was on stimulants?! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu nearly succeeded earlier, but he actually escaped just like that!"

"Ye Yuan is truly too scary! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu holds all the advantages, but he still managed to pull it back. Furthermore, he even used such a profound sword driving skill!"

"En? This sword driving technique is definitely a divine soul mystic art! Can you guys feel it? Ye Yuan's soul force is actually even stronger than high-rank Alchemy Masters!"

"Hiss . . . Just how on earth did this fellow cultivate? A 15-year-old Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm who grasped true intent and his soul force is even ridiculously powerful! Is this fellow really human?"

Chapter 276: Opportunity!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Ye Yuan's current soul force could no longer be compared to the past. It could already sustain the Sword Driving Technique for some time.

It was just that the requirement the Sword Driving Technique had towards soul force was too high. He could not keep it up for too long either.

Furthermore, while the Sword Driving Technique was strong, when facing a half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert like Tian Yu, it was still unable to gain any advantages.

After over a dozen rounds, Ye Yuan withdrew his soul force and brought the Canghua Sword back.

This time, Tian Yu did not seize the opportunity to pursue. He understood that the same method was already useless towards Ye Yuan!

Tian Yu looked at Ye Yuan with eyes like burning torches, appearing very excited.

It was apparent that the battle earlier was to his heart's content.

"Looks like you had some kind of breakthrough during the exchange just now. Otherwise, it's impossible to escape from my attack range!" Tian Yu said.

Ye Yuan reached out to receive the Canghua Sword and nodded as he said, "Actually, I primarily cultivate a fire-attribute cultivation method. But, I keep being unable to learn the rudiments of the concept of fire. Just now, under your enormous pressure, I actually had some gains."

Ye Yuan could not help sighing when he talked about.

In fact, compared to sword intent, Ye Yuan's first breakthrough should be the concept of fire. After all, he basically had contact with fire the whole of his previous life and was all too familiar with it.

But the previous life's Ji Qingyun was simply uninterested in cultivation and never comprehended the concept of fire.

In this life, he stepped onto the Nine Heavens Road by chance. Ye Yuan relied on his own perception to directly fuse together the sword intents, forming the elementary form of a supreme true intent.

During this period of time, Ye Yuan naturally placed his emphasis on comprehending sword intent and also created two extremely powerful sword moves: the Nine Swords Stance and Thousand Flowing Petals.

But he cultivated in the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art for such a long time and did not even comprehend a single type of fire attribute true intent.

One must know that the Spirit Bristle Divine King relied on this one cultivation method to comprehend several types of supreme true intent!

The might of this cultivation method was clear at a glance!

But comprehending true intent required opportunities and needed fortuitous encounters. Ye Yuan was unable to find this opportunity and lucky chance this whole time.

But today, Tian Yu used the Tier 3 fire attribute martial technique, Firecloud Finger, to push him into a desperate situation, and finally unlocked this opportunity!

In reality, the Firecloud Finger and Ye Yuan's Essence Energy Ignition had the same profundities of achieving the same results with different means. They both augmented the power of the martial technique through igniting the essence energy within the body.

They encompassed a type of auxiliary concept of fire attribute concepts: Transmission True Intent!

This was actually a kind of very obscure concept. Exceedingly few people would go and comprehend it.

Fire had no constant form but was an existence that could transform its own energy into other forms.

Such as boiling water where fire could transfer energy into the pot and water. This was actually a kind of energy transfer to the pot and water.

In life, such examples were prevalent. The ignition of essence energy had the same principle.

However, compared to a purely auxiliary martial technique like Essence Energy Ignition, there was still an offensive concept contained within the Firecloud Finger. That was why its power was so great.

Although Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger was not on par with the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art, his comprehension of fire attribute concepts was above Ye Yuan!

From this aspect, Tian Yu's talent was indeed startling!

And under the pressure from Tian Yu, Ye Yuan actually produced some sort of resonance with Tian Yu's Firecloud Finger!

It was precisely this sort of resonance that let Ye Yuan's comprehension towards transmission true intent become even deeper. Essence Energy Ignition, this auxiliary martial technique instantly broke through its bottleneck and achieved the Great Circle Realm!

When Essence Energy Ignition reached the Great Circle Rank, the essence energy that Essence Energy Ignition burned became very little, but the power increased dramatically!

This was also why it was like Ye Yuan became another person; his movement speed becoming extremely quick.

Ye Yuan had close contact with fire all his life and was extremely sensitive to fire from the start. He just lacked an opportunity.

Now that this gate opened up, Ye Yuan would become completely unstoppable!

Ye Yuan was presently also in a very excited state. Having Tian Yu who trained in fire attribute martial techniques was the most ideal opponent for Ye Yuan!

He needed Tian Yu's help to comprehend this true intent in one stroke!

"Haha, excellent! Just now during this battle, I also had some gains and was just about to find you to test them out!" Tian Yu suddenly said with a laugh.

Ye Yuan's eyes lit up, and he was clearly surprised. He could not help asking, "Then do we continue?"

Tian Yu nodded but said, "Just a moment."

When he finished talking, Tian Yu slowly walked towards the sword that he threw away earlier.

"En? What's Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu doing? Why did he go over to pick up the sword?"

"He's not planning on continuing to compete in the sword with Ye Yuan, right?"

"Are you kidding? Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu even used Luminous Moon High Above just now and it was completely useless against Ye Yuan! Isn't competing using swords with Ye Yuan is looking for a brutal beating?"

Under everyone's stupefied eyes, Tian Yu picked up the sword on the ground and gave a light swing. He turned to Ye Yuan and said, "Let's continue!"

With a sword in his hands, Tian Yu's entire aura transformed.

Ye Yuan could clearly sense that the current Tian Yu was already completely different from the Tian Yu who was wielding the sword at the very beginning!

When Tian Yu unleashed Luminous Moon High Above as his first move, he had no confidence at all back then. But now, Ye Yuan could sense Tian Yu's powerful confidence!

Could it be . . .

The corner of Ye Yuan's mouth curled slightly as he said with a smile, "Congratulations, Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu! You seemed to have really found your own path!"

Tian Yu was also rejoicing currently. He smiled and said, "I still have to thank Junior Apprentice Brother Ye! Without you, perhaps I may never stride out this step! In order to express my gratitude . . . I'll personally defeat you!"

"Haha, come on!" Ye Yuan said.

Tian Yu did not use Luminous Moon High Above again. It was a plain and simple straight stab without any showy manner!

But Ye Yuan felt an extremely strong pressure coming from the front of this simple stab!

This strike, Tian Yu's sword actually suffused with traces of red light.

When Xiao Jian saw this scene, his pupils constricted!

"Elementary form of true intent! Tian Yu, he . . . comprehended the elementary form of a true intent!"

Luo Qingfeng was also quite flustered right now. "How many years has it been?! How many years has it been since a powerhouse who possesses true intent has appeared in our Tranquil Cloud Sect?! Looks like heaven is really protecting my Tranquil Cloud Sect! First, there's Ye Yuan. Now, there Tian Yu! There's hope for the resurgence of my Tranquil Cloud Sect!"

They were still currently unaware that the Long Tang who entered the sect together with Ye Yuan also comprehended the elementary form of a true intent too.

Luo Qingfeng was quite unsettled currently. When he knew that Ye Yuan had grasped true intent, although he was happy, he was not as agitated as right now.

Because he knew that Ye Yuan's monstrousness had already surpassed the boundaries of the Tranquil Cloud Sect. He definitely would not stay in the Tranquil Cloud Sect contently in the future!

There would come a day where Ye Yuan would leave the Tranquil Cloud Sect! And this day might not be too far away!

Ye Yuan's growth was too rapid, so quick that the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect could not keep up with his footsteps!

But the significance of Tian Yu comprehending the elementary form of true intent was different!

Tian Yu was Grand Elder Skymaple's grandson. He was born in the Tranquil Cloud Sect and grew up in the Tranquil Cloud Sect. His root lied with the Tranquil Cloud Sect!

As long as Tian Yu matures, he would absolutely lead the Tranquil Cloud Sect towards power!

Moreover, different from Ye Yuan, Tian Yu's road to maturity was still long.

He had just comprehended the elementary form of true intent. There was still at least one to two hundred years to become a top powerhouse of the Endless World!

Chapter 277: Let It Seethe!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Due to the loss of cultivation methods, Tranquil Cloud Sect members found it challenging to even break through to the Soul Sea Realm. Their situation even deteriorated these few years steadily.

If Tian Yu could rely on the true intent that he perceived himself to breakthrough to the Soul Sea Realm and even higher realms, the significance would be too great to the Tranquil Cloud Sect.

Luo Qingfeng's gaze suddenly turned towards Ye Yuan, and he said with a marveling sigh, "Xiao Jian, did you notice that ever since Ye Yuan entered the sect, there have been many changes happening silently in the sect?"

Xiao Jian was stunned and could not help recalling the incidents that happened around Ye Yuan during this period of time.

"Uh, it's true. If Sect Master didn't say, I wouldn't even think of it! Martial Uncle Skymaple entering closed-seclusion, problems that troubled the various Pill Hall elders all resolved one after another, and now, Tian Yu actually comprehended the elementary form of a true intent! Thinking how it has been only slightly more than a month's time since Ye Yuan entered the sect, so many changes actually happened in the sect!"

Xiao Jian tallied the changes that Ye Yuan brought to the sect in detail and could not help being shocked.

Luo Qingfeng nodded and said, "Someone like Ye Yuan can no longer be described with genius! He's a person with a great destiny. The people around him can obtain enormous benefits! His master is surely an earthshaking figure who will also give off extraordinary splendor when he enters the Divine Realm in the future. And for my Tranquil Cloud Sect to be able to take in Ye Yuan is also a turning point to change the sect's destiny! Xiao Jian, you have the greatest contributions to have brought Ye Yuan into the sect! If Ye Yuan and the Tranquil Cloud Sect fell out because of Yao Qian, it would definitely be a catastrophic disaster in the future!"

Xiao Jian was stricken with terror when he heard that!

Back then, he had no understanding of Ye Yuan at all. It was only due to Lu Yan that he garnered interest.

Even when Ye Yuan cleared the Nine Heavens Road at the Essence Qi Realm, he only felt that Ye Yuan had a lot of potentials and nothing more.

Who would have thought that Ye Yuan could actually have the power to transform the entire sect!

Thinking about it now, he felt unbelievably blessed.On the platform, facing this sword from Tian Yu, Ye Yuan did not dare to slight him. Essence Energy Ignition was released fully.

"Nine Swords Stance! Nine Swords as One!"

Nine Swords as One was Ye Yuan's strongest attack apart from Thousand Flowing Petals. Facing this astonishing attack from Tian Yu, Ye Yuan had to give it his all!

Only to see a blinding yellow sword light and a fire-red sword light clash together!

Boom!

A violent explosion sound echoed out. An extremely powerful blast spread out.

"Quickly dodge! The platform is about to give way!" someone suddenly cried out from the crowd.

Actually, other people already spread out on their own accord without needing him to call out. A large stretch of no-man's-land appeared around the platform.

There were array formations protecting the surroundings of the platform which could defend against the full power attack of a middle-stage Crystal Formation Realm martial artist!

The strongest among the core disciples was only half-step Crystal Formation Realm. This defensive formation was already more than enough.

But these two people's powerful attacks had already far surpassed this scope. The platform's defensive formation was currently cracking apart inch by inch and was finally blasted open by the force!

Ye Yuan could already wound Yuan Fei when using the Nine Swords Stance at the Essence Qi Realm. Now that he was already at middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm, the power of the Nine Swords Stance increased by more than a level.

But the power of Tian Yu's sword who had comprehended the elementary form of a true intent was not worse off. When these two attacks collided together, how could a mere middle-rank Tier 3 defensive formation defend against it?

Two silhouettes flew out backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.

But the pair crawled up at the same time. Wiping the blood traces at the corner of their lips, they spoke unanimously, "Again!"

As they said, the two people attacked each other with the same move once more without another word!

"These two people have gone mad! Quickly dodge! Move further away!"

"The defensive formation is already broken. We have to move further away to watch the battle, or else we'll be the collateral damage!"

A commotion immediately stirred from the crowd, but Ye Yuan and Tian Yu stood there like there was nobody around.

Everyone had just evacuated a distance away when two attacks clashed together again!

The two people no longer used any flashy martial techniques right now. It was purely the competition of sword intent, the clashing of strength in a barbaric manner!

The sword intent that Tian Yu comprehended was naturally not as profound as Ye Yuan's, but his cultivation realm was much higher than Ye Yuan's.

Supplementing each other, the power of the two people's sword moves were actually equally-matched!

Another rumble, a blast billowed out again!

Even when everyone had retreated far away, they also felt that formidable force gushing face-front.

The two people flew backward again and crawled up together once more.

"Hahaha! Invigorating! Again!" Tian Yu said gallantly.

"I'll accompany to the end!"

Ye Yuan encountered a hard to come by opponent who was well-matched with him. This battle was also fought to his heart's content.

Most importantly, Ye Yuan already pushed Essence Energy Ignition to the limits. He had a feeling that comprehending the transmission true intent was not far away anymore!

Battle was undoubtedly the best way to comprehend true intent.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Each time they clashed, the two people were blasted far apart, but they immediately crawled up stubbornly and faced-off again!

"Are these two crazy? Their tank is already exhausted, and they're still fighting!"

"Yeah! Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu's half-step Crystal Formation Realm strength also pretty much have very little essence energy left currently. I really don't know Ye Yuan lasted until now!"

"What's even more maddening is that they already fought to such an extent and their attacks are still so fierce! The blasts produced from each clash is not a bit lesser than the previous clashes. How do they do it?"

"Two demon-like existences. They seriously cannot be gauged using common sense!"

The two people's clashes shocked everyone until they were staring with mouths agape. Such a level of major battle was seldom seen in the sect.

Even a showdown between two Crystal Formation Realm martial artists would not be so ferocious!

Tian Yu could hang on until now purely by relying on his immense essence energy.

But what Ye Yuan relied on to sustain until now was his comprehension towards true intent!

Don't look at how his attack power virtually did not drop, his essence energy consumption became lesser and lesser.

Just a teensy bit more and he could comprehend another type of true intent!

Ye Yuan was about to lose even the strength to lift his sword currently. He looked at Tian Yu who was on the other side wearily. He was not much better off than him.

This was the last trace of essence energy in his Dantian!

Just a little bit more! A little bit! I can't lose! I still have to charge back to the Divine Realm, how can I lose here?

Ye Yuan gritted his teeth and squeezed out that last trace of essence energy.

"Essence Energy Ignition! Let it seethe!"

That final modicum of essence energy started rising like boiling water!

This time, Ye Yuan did not feel any stagnation when revolving essence energy!

That essence energy that was combusted away transformed into a waft of pure sword intent, entering the meridians from the Dantian, then from the meridians into the Canghua Sword!

This instant, Ye Yuan felt unprecedentedly powerful!

In the past, when using this Essence Energy Ignition, there would always be some diminution in essence energy which would be lost.

What Ye Yuan pursued all this while was to convert this kind of essence energy, preserving it 100%, and releasing it using the Canghua Sword!

But how could doing it 100% be easy?

Each time he clashed with Tian Yu, Ye Yuan had been fumbling over how to reduce this sort of exhaustion to the minimum!

Now, he finally did it!

"Nine Swords Stance! Go for me!"

Nine streaks of sword light combined into one. Those brilliant sword lights blinded everyone's eyes!

Chapter 278: The Rock That Fell!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

When he saw this final attack from Ye Yuan, a feeling of unable to overcome with force welled up in Tian Yu's heart!

Tian Yu planned to use the last bit of essence energy to continue to clash with Ye Yuan. But when he saw this move, he backed out right away.

He used the last scrap of essence energy to push his movement martial technique, performing a dodging action with extreme speed!

Screech!

The sword light was impossibly swift. Tian Yu's decision took only an instant.

Just as Tian Yu's body left the original spot, the sword light grazed past his ear and left behind a lock of hair.

A second slower and this pinnacle genius who had just comprehended the elementary form of a true intent would have had his head separated from his body!

Talking about it was slow, but all of this actually happened in an instant.

In that instant earlier, everyone broke out in goosebumps and just felt a chill down their backs. Many people clenched their fists, and even their breathing became disorderly.

This sword was too powerful!

It would be certain death if forcefully receiving it head-on!

When they saw Tian Yu dodge this sword, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Tian Yu also breathed a sigh in relief. But when he reacted to it, he discovered that his back was already drenched.

It was fortunate that his mind was sufficiently clear earlier. If he forcefully took this blow, he would be severely injured if not dead!

But with this easing up, Tian Yu discovered that he did not even have the strength to lift his arms anymore. He plopped his bottom on the ground and panted heavily unceasingly.

"Huu . . . Huu . . . You won, Ye Yuan!" Tian Yu said wheezily.

His forehead was currently matted with sweat and his head propped on the sword hilt, simply unable to look up.

It was just that there was no response for some time after he spoke and he could not help becoming puzzled.

Straining to lift his head up, he discovered that Ye Yuan was currently sitting cross-legged. He actually entered a meditative state!

Did this fellow comprehend something else?

Ye Yuan's condition earlier was clearly even worse than his, but he released that unfathomable sword just for this comprehension?

At this present moment, Tian Yu's tiny bit of self-delight from comprehending the elementary form of a true intent already became non-existent.

In front of Ye Yuan's perception, he willingly acknowledged defeat!

Just by looking at the power of that final sword and he knew that Ye Yuan comprehended something remarkable!

Ka!

Right then, a huge sound came from behind Tian Yu!

Everyone turned their eyes over but were shocked until they were staring with their mouths agape.

The rocky outcrop on Victory Peak not far behind Tian Yu was incomparably tough. At present, a huge chunk of rock actually slid down slowly!

Chiii!

Boom!

That enormous mass of rock finally detached from Victory Peak and fell into the 100 thousand foot abyss behind the peak!

After detaching, a bald patch was left on the main body. The cut was incredibly smooth.

"This . . . This was left by Ye Yuan's sword earlier?"

"Ye Yuan's sword just now actually sliced off this hunk of rock? That piece of rock that fell down just now was probably several thousand pounds in weight! It's impossible, even for the average Crystal Formation Realm experts to slice it off with one swing, right?"

"I thought that the slash released by Ye Yuan earlier was swallowed up by the mountain. Who knew that it actually left behind such a divine vestige!"

The mountainous body which had a huge chunk shaved off looked especially glaring currently.

Tian Yu stared at that level cut and his scalp involuntarily tingled! If he were impetuous just now and clashed with Ye Yuan's move, would he still be standing here well and proper right now?

Thinking up to here, Tian Yu's cold sweat which had just stopped drenched his back once more.

Not just Tian Yu, Luo Qingfeng and Xiao Jian were also stunned speechless for a long time when they saw this scene.

When they recovered, they shuddered unceasingly after the event.

If Tian Yu did not evade that attack at the last moment just now, what would be the outcome?

Luo Qingfeng thought about it. Most likely, the best outcome was heavily injured or crippled. Furthermore, the chances of such an outcome occurring were exceedingly small.

The greatest possibility was Tian Yu dropping dead!

That way, they would really have rejoiced too soon. Furthermore, the troubles after the incident would be sufficient to give them a headache for a long time.

"Ye Yuan is going to breakthrough again!" Luo Qingfeng was the first to recover. He looked at Ye Yuan who was sitting cross-legged far away and said.

Except, he did not notice that his voice when speaking carried some trembling.

Hearing Luo Qingfeng said so, Xiao Jian finally came around. He asked puzzledly, "He just broke through to the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm not long ago. Is he going to break through again?"

Luo Qingfeng had a solemn face as he said, "He was already a spent force earlier, yet he released such a powerful attack. It's evident that he comprehended something at the final juncture! Although Ye Yuan had not broken through to the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm for long, his realm is already very solid. Breaking through again is of no issue at all!"

Xiao Jian's mouth opened, but he did not know what to say.

This Ye Yuan had truly surpassed the limits of his imaginations already.

There were a good several hundred people spectating this final match. Currently, all eyes were focused on that slightly skinny figure in the center of the ruined platform.

Indeed, before long, essence energy tempests howled on the initially calm and tranquil Victory Peak.

"Essence energy storm! Ye Yuan, he . . . broke through!"

"Turns out that breaking through realms can be so easy? I heard that when he just entered the sect, he was only at the Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm. How long has it been only? He's breaking through again!"

"No, wait! This essence energy tempest is becoming bigger and bigger! Looks like it's not just breaking through to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!"

"Previously, he broke through two minor realms simultaneously, breaking through to the middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm directly. Can he also be breaking through two realms concurrently this time?"

"Two realms? You got to be kidding! Look at this essence energy tempest! It's even enough to break through to the Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, right? What is this fellow trying to do?"

Every time he broke through, Ye Yuan's activities were much greater compared to others. Because the essence energy required for his breakthroughs were seriously too much.

Activities that Ye Yuan felt were very normal appeared abnormally horrifying in other people's eyes.

The essence energy storm that he gathered was plenty to stuff a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm to death several times over!

Before long, the essence energy that Ye Yuan had previously expended was already fully replenished, and he broke through smoothly to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!

This to him was merely the lowest requirement. But to others, it was not the case.

"En? Broke through to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm so quickly? Why do I feel like he completely doesn't have the feeling of breaking through a bottleneck?"

". . . Just based on that sword earlier, breaking through to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm is just like a canal forming when water flows, right? Something like bottleneck is only used to encumber us. To geniuses like Ye Yuan, bottlenecks are simply just ornaments!"

"True! Forget about Ye Yuan, even Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu and the rest would have likely broken through to the Crystal Formation Realm already if not for comprehending concepts, right?"

"That's true! Comprehending concepts is laying a foundation. After comprehending concepts, breaking through realms will become much easier. Ye Yuan has already grasped true intent, so breaking through to the Fifth Level Spirit Condensation Realm is indeed nothing much to him."

Under everyone's eyes, Ye Yuan started advancing towards the Sixth Level Spirit Condensation Realm.

After an hour, Ye Yuan broke through to the Sixth Level Spirit Condensation Realm successfully. This was also within everyone's expectations.

However . . . it was not over yet!

Chapter 279: Uninvited Guest!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Updated by

Ye Yuan previously broke through three minor realms in one breath on the Nine Heavens Road. At that time, it amazed everyone in the Dan Wu Academy.

But compared to now, that time did not even count as anything.

The difficulty of raising a minor realm in the Spirit Condensation Realm was more than ten times harder compared to the Essence Qi Realm!

But even so, Ye Yuan still went and did it without any hesitation.

To him, there was no so-called bottleneck. Furthermore, the current Ye Yuan had already comprehended the elementary form of supreme true intent and also comprehended the transmission true intent.

Consecutively breaking through three minor realms was no longer considered much to Ye Yuan.

One had to know that the vast majority of martial artists in the Endless World would never be able to comprehend a type of true intent throughout their entire lives. From this, it could be seen how high the starting point for true intent was.

But the way others saw it, this was completely not the case.

"This . . . Is he breaking through to the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm already? Is there a mistake?"

"Since when can breaking through realms be done in leaps and bounds like this?"

"This is not a minor realm! Ye Yuan, he's breaking through from middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm to late-stage Spirit Condensation Realm directly! Although Senior Apprentice Brother Tian Yu and the rest emphasized on perceiving concepts, to let them break through in full force, it's also impossible to be like Ye Yuan, right?"

It was no wonder that they were amazed. For normal breakthroughs, it would probably take several months' time even for geniuses like Tian Yu and Ti Wujiu.

Breaking through like Ye Yuan, first, let's not talk about whether they would be stuffed to death by the essence energy storm. Even if they broke through realms, they would probably spend even more time to consolidate it.

This way, the losses outweigh the gains.At this precise moment, a disciple reported to Luo Qingfeng. "Sect Master, an envoy has arrived from the Heavenly Sky Sect! H-He already arrived at Victory Peak!"

Luo Qingfeng frowned and said, "Why are you showing such misconduct? Do you still need me to teach you all this?"

When visiting other sects, most would wait for the host in the main hall and only meet after the disciple reported it. There was absolutely no such logic as roaming wildly.

The Heavenly Sky Sect's envoy's actions were showing extreme impertinence to the host.

When Luo Qingfeng heard that the Heavenly Sky Sect's envoy had already arrived at Victory Peak, his first reaction was naturally that the reporting disciple was insensible and directly brought the person over here.

That disciple said aggrievedly, "I asked the envoy to wait in the main hall for me to report to the sect master, but he followed here right away! He even said . . . even said . . ."

"Said what?"

"This disciple dare not say."

"I asked you to say, so say it. What are you stammering for?"

The disciple gritted his teeth and said, "He said that our Tranquil Cloud Sect is only slightly stronger than second-rate sects and is simply undeserving of the title of one of the Eight Great Sects. The Heavenly Sky Sect is the leader of the Southern Domain's great sects. As the Heavenly Sky Sect's envoy, having a look around is giving us Tranquil Cloud Sect face! I . . . I was afraid . . . so I brought him here directly."

The disciple was filled with righteous indignation when talking. It was apparent that he was filled with pent-up anger.

Xiao Jian flew into a rage when he heard that and said, "Heavenly Sky Sect is really going too far! Sect Master, in my view, just drive him out directly! Provoking our Tranquil Cloud Sect like this, we have the moral high ground no matter where we go!"

The disciple also had a face full of righteous anger by the side. He was clearly very much in agreement with Hall Head Xiao's opinion.

Earlier, that envoy's high and mighty appearance nearly made him give him a slap across the face.

But Luo Qingfeng was not as agitated as Xiao Jian. He said to the disciple, "Didn't he come with you? Where is he?"

"The envoy seemed to have seen something interesting just now at the plaza, so he stayed. This disciple was afraid that I would bungle matters, so I rushed over to report to sect master," the disciple said.

Luo Qingfeng's expression already returned to normal currently. He nodded and said, "You did pretty well. I'm the one who wronged you. Bring me to see this envoy."

"Sect Master! We've already suffered enough of the Heavenly Sky Sect's bullying these few years. Now, even a measly little envoy dares to ride on top of our heads to take a dump!" Xiao Jian said indignantly.

Luo Qingfeng looked at Xiao Jian and said with a sigh, "While it is of a noble character to die in glory rather than live on in dishonor, in my position, I must make considerations for the sect's future! Regardless of whether it's Ye Yuan, Ti Wujiu, or Tian Yu. They are all the sect's future! And our mission is not to show bravery for a moment, but to ensure the growth of these geniuses!"

Xiao Jian's gaze turned intent as he said, "But . . . the Heavenly Sky Sect is too much of a bully! Even a puny little envoy dares to strut around in front of us now; let alone others! We're at least the upper echelons of a sect, there's no need to grovel before an envoy, right?"

Luo Qingfeng's face fell, and he said, "Xiao Jian! You're too naïve! In the martial arts world, it has always been the strong who reigns supreme! Don't you have even this bit of understanding? Dignity isn't given to you by others, but it's you who award it to yourself! If you and I have the strength of Soul Sea Realm, why would we need to adapt to their mood? Now that several fine saplings have finally appeared in our sect, they mustn't be ruined in our hands!"

Luo Qingfeng's words made Xiao Jian unbelievably dejected.

It had always been the strong who reigned supreme in the martial arts world. Weaklings were only eliminated and not sympathized.

The Heavenly Sky Sect was powerful, that was why their sect members dared to be so unbridled!

Although Xiao Jian's way of doing things could obtain a momentary comfort, the aftermath would be too serious.

Once they were given a handle, the Heavenly Sky Sect might just use it as an opportunity to start a sect war with the Tranquil Cloud Sect!

In that case, the consequences would be serious!

This was not raising a false alarm. The Heavenly Sky Sect's wild ambitions were already laid bare in the open. Initiating a sect war was a possibility.

With the Heavenly Sky Sect's strength, the Tranquil Cloud Sect would be hard-pressed to escape the fate of having the sect annihilated.

The disparity between the number one great sect and a bottom-tier sect was seriously too great!

In the Heavenly Sky Sect, just the Soul Sea Realm powerhouses numbered quite a few! While the Tranquil Cloud Sect only had Skymaple this one Soul Sea Realm powerhouse.

Grand Elder Skymaple was even just an alchemist. His combat power was negligible.

With such a great disparity, the Heavenly Sky Sect being somewhat arrogant was within reason.

As the master of a sect, Luo Qingfeng naturally could not be like Xiao Jian when considering problems. He had to consider the big picture.

Especially after watching the fight earlier, Luo Qingfeng was even less willing to start a fight with the Heavenly Sky Sect easily.

As long as Ye Yuan could rise rapidly, what did the Heavenly Sky Sect count as?

Before the wings were fully feathered, forbearance was very necessary.

Before long, the disciple led Luo Qingfeng and Xiao Jian to see the Heavenly Sky Sect's envoy.

"Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang Yu, Sect Master Luo has arrived," the disciple introduced.

The envoy shot a casual glance at Luo Qingfeng but did not have the slightest intention of greeting. His gaze returned to Ye Yuan who was currently breaking through.

His haughty manner was completely unmasked!

"Sect Master Luo, is there a need for so many people to surround and watch a puny little Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist breakthrough? When did your Tranquil Cloud Sect fall to such a plight?"

The envoy watched Ye Yuan who was sitting cross-legged, his words filled with mockery.

The envoy was a young man around 18 or 19 years old but already had a cultivation of Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm.

Such an age, such strength, placed in the Tranquil Cloud Sect, it was absolutely the status of a personal disciple!

Except, the first sentence when meeting him made people very displeased.

Chapter 280: Cutting In!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Updated by

Luo Qingfeng did not get angry. He just used a very peculiar expression to look at this young envoy.

When the envoy saw that Luo Qingfeng had no reaction after a long time, he involuntarily became secretly displeased.

When the envoy turned around and saw Luo Qingfeng's expression, he could not help being stupefied. He asked in puzzlement, "Why? Did I say it wrong? Could this Spirit Condensation Realm fellow have anything special?"

"Haha, not really all that special. It's just that he just obtained victory and had some comprehension during the fight, so he took advantage of the opportunity to break through. That's why there are so many people surrounding and watching," Luo Qingfeng explained with a smile.

The envoy had a disdainful look when he heard that. "If I didn't see wrongly, this boy seems to have gotten first place?"

As he was talking, he shook his head and said pityingly, "Your Tranquil Cloud Sect is really declining with the passing of time. A Sixth Level Spirit Condensation Realm boy can actually obtain first place in the sect grand competition. What a joke!"

Xiao Jian was originally standing by the side patiently. When he heard such words, he immediately wanted to step forward and lose it but was held back by Luo Qingfeng.

"What? Hall Head Xiao seems to have some disgruntlement with me! Come, come, come! Just come! As long as you're not afraid of my master coming over to take revenge!"

Seeing Xiao Jian's furious appearance, the envoy did not know what was called fear. Instead, he brought out his own master, and his arrogance became even more inflated.

Luo Qingfeng was actually already furious to the limit in his heart, but as the sect master, he had no choice but to suppress this anger.

This envoy clearly recognized him and Xiao Jian, but they had never met him, so they naturally did not know which mighty deity his master was.

"Xiao Jian, you withdraw first!"

"Sect Master!"

"Withdraw!"

Xiao Jian gritted his teeth, flicked his sleeves and left.

Seeing Xiao Jian leave, Luo Qingfeng turned around and asked, "Your master is?"

When the envoy saw that Luo Qingfeng did not even dare to let out a fart, he became even more pleased with himself secretly. That head of his was raised until it was about to reach the skies.

"My master is Chi Zongtao. I am master's personal disciple, Li Zhangyu," Li Zhangyu said with a proud beam.

Luo Qingfeng naturally would not make a fool of himself in front of a junior, but he was alarmed in his heart.

Of course, he knew this Chi Zongtao. He was one of the grand elders of the Heavenly Sky Sect: a Soul Sea Realm powerhouse!

Weighing things this way, this punk was the same generation as him?

No wonder this punk dared to be so insolent. Turned out that he actually had such a backing.

Pressing down the unhappiness in his heart, Luo Qingfeng asked, "What did your honored sect send you here for?"

Li Zhangyu said, "Of course, it's for something good! But this matter will have to wait for later. Right now, I just had a sudden burst of inspiration and feel like I'm about to break through realms right away. This place is pretty good. I'm going to break through here!"

Finishing, without even waiting for Luo Qingfeng to agree, he scurried over to not far from Ye Yuan with a flash.

Luo Qingfeng's expression changed. It was already too late to try and stop this. Li Zhangyu's essence energy storm had already started to gather.

The two essence energy storms converged together very quickly. If Luo Qingfeng made a move to disrupt Li Zhangyu's breakthrough, it would definitely also interrupt Ye Yuan's breakthrough!

Luo Qingfeng gnashed his teeth in hatred. Looks like this Li Zhangyu was spoiled rotten by Chi Zongtao. He was actually so willful when doing things.

How was this Li Zhangyu going to break through? This was clearly him wanting to smack Tranquil Cloud Sect's face!

This Li Zhangyu was at Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm strength. Now, he was going to break through to the Fifth Level Crystal Formation Realm. But Ye Yuan was only breaking through to the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm. How could he compare to Li Zhangyu?

The essence energy storm momentum would surely be devoured cleanly if Ye Yuan broke through beside a Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist!

Li Zhangyu had wicked thoughts. This was him wanting to make Ye Yuan fail his breakthrough by breaking through himself at the same time!

Once Ye Yuan failed his breakthrough, Tranquil Cloud Sect would have lost face completely!

Moreover, failing the breakthrough this time would surely cast a very large shadow on Ye Yuan. Wanting to break through again would no longer be that easy!

Li Zhangyu was evidently a clever person. Although Luo Qingfeng spoke vaguely earlier, he also guessed that Ye Yuan must have some aspects surpassing others.

Furthermore, to be able to obtain the number one in the grand competition with Sixth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength, regardless whether it was the Tranquil Cloud Sect lacking successors or not, Ye Yuan unquestionably had some saving graces.

Sweeping away the Tranquil Cloud Sect's face in public and also ruining the Tranquil Cloud Sect's genius disciple and even spreading the fame of the Heavenly Sky Sect. It was truly killing three birds with one arrow!

When Luo Qingfeng thought up to here, he was so enraged that his complexion turned green, but he was powerless to do anything.

Li Zhangyu might be arrogant, but he also indeed had the capital to be arrogant. The essence energy storm was gathered casually. This unhurried manner was ample to show his might.

When martial artists broke through realms, which one of them would not make ample preparations?

Li Zhangyu did it on the spot. Clearly, he was full of confidence. That was also to say, breaking through to the Fifth Level Crystal Formation Realm was not even considered much to Li Zhangyu.

Such boldness, among the younger generation in the Tranquil Cloud Sect, there was simply no one like it.

Luo Qingfeng finally just let out a sigh. Now, in this kind of situation, Ye Yuan could only count on himself.

Or perhaps, Ye Yuan could create a miracle.

If it were another person, Luo Qingfeng might just really move to stop this. But Ye Yuan could never be measured using common sense.

Some things that would never happen to others became uncertain with Ye Yuan.

After all, there was simply no martial artist who grasped true intent in the Southern Domain.

Ye Yuan was the sole person!

In a blink, storms raged in the entire plaza. The two essence energy storms towered to the skies and meshed together.

Initially, Ye Yuan's essence energy tempest was already very exaggerated. But Li Zhangyu's essence energy storm was more than a level stronger.

Li Zhangyu was a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist. The commotion when breaking through was obviously different.

With a fellow suddenly popping out to breakthrough, they naturally got a feast for their eyes.

"Who's this person? Why have I never heard that we had such a senior apprentice brother?"

"What's this person trying to do? Why does he have to squeeze with Ye Yuan if he wants to break through and not find a place to enter seclusion?"

"The situation is not quite right! This person is a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist. The essence energy tempest that he created is so powerful! Essence energy storms are originally used to plunder the surrounding essence energy for one's own use. The essence energy storm that he created is already starting to pillage Ye Yuan's!"

"Ye Yuan's in danger! If his essence energy storm is looted, then his hope of breaking through to the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm will be dashed to pieces! There might even be the danger of cultivation realm falling!"

"What kind of mysterious person this is? Such a powerful aura! A Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist's breakthrough actually has such great commotion!"

Many people started to worry for Ye Yuan. Compared to a stranger, everyone naturally hoped for Ye Yuan to breakthrough.

Except, everyone sensed that the essence energy storm on Ye Yuan's side was becoming increasingly weaker. Ye Yuan's breakthrough also fell into a precarious situation, as if there would be signs of stopping at any time.

If Ye Yuan and Li Zhangyu competed in supreme true intent, these Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples would absolutely not worry for him.

Ye Yuan had grasped true intent. Forget that Li Zhangyu was just at Crystal Formation Realm, even if he was at the Sea Transformation Realm, or even the Soul Sea Realm, they did not think that Li Zhangyu could win.

But they were breaking through cultivation realms currently, seizing essence energy.

This way, Ye Yuan's true intent would not come in handy at all. Instead, his cultivation realm became his greatest disadvantage.

How could a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist possibly be a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist's match in plundering essence energy?

Chapter 281: Li Zhangyu's Strength!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Ye Yuan's breakthrough at just reached a critical juncture when he suddenly felt the essence energy around him diminishing and was almost unable to support his breakthrough anymore.

The occurrence of such a situation made him feel rather baffled.

Opening his eyes slightly, he saw someone else besides him. This person was apparently breaking through too.

The other person's essence energy tempest was much stronger than his. It was clearly at the strength level that only a Crystal Formation Realm martial artist should have.

Ye Yuan understood the situation very quickly.

Although this person looked very unfamiliar, just by looking at the other party choosing to break through beside him, he clearly had malicious intentions!

Towards guys like this, Ye Yuan would never be courteous.

The corner of Ye Yuan's lips curled slightly. He sneered coldly in his heart and thought to himself, Want to play a game of plundering essence energy? You're going to cry!

Since the other party wanted to play, then he would let him have his fill!

Seemingly sensing Ye Yuan's glance, Li Zhangyu also turned to look at Ye Yuan and did a thumbs down gesture. The provocation meaning was very thick.

"Truly too arrogant! This fellow actually dares to do this sort of infuriating gesture. Does he really take it as if our Tranquil Cloud Sect has nobody?"

"En? I remembered. He's wearing the Heavenly Sky Sect uniform! He's a Heavenly Sky Sect disciple!"

"What? Why would a Heavenly Sky Sect disciple run all the way to our Tranquil Cloud Sect to breakthrough realms?"

"Are you dumb? How is he coming here to break through realms? He's simply here to show off! Seizing essence energy for his own breakthrough beside Ye Yuan, causing Ye Yuan's breakthrough to fail, and even making such a hand gesture in front of so many of us, he's really bullying our Tranquil Cloud Sect for having nobody!"

"That might be so, but this Heavenly Sky Sect disciple is really very strong! We have to do a crazy lot of preparations before breaking through realms and then finding an isolated place to seclude ourselves. But him, he just ran over here directly to breakthrough! Furthermore, look at his appearance; he clearly still has a lot of strength leftover as if breaking through is like eating a common fare to him."

"I say, can you stop boosting other people's morale and diminishing our prestige? You're also aware of Ye Yuan's talent. Perhaps a miracle will happen!"

When the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples recognized Li Zhangyu's background, they became bound by a common hatred for the enemy.

Although most of them had never seen before Heavenly Sky Sect's people, they all knew the Heavenly Sky Sect's overbearingness.

Rather, it was Ye Yuan who was completely clueless about this. Facing Li Zhangyu's provocation, he just smiled faintly and stood up.

Ye Yuan was simply disinclined to bother with this sort of lame provocation.

The way Ye Yuan saw it, this kind of provocation were simply like shrews shouting and cursing in public. You scolded me a sentence, so I have to scold you back?

The best way to snuff out the other party's arrogance was nothing better than to beat the other party down! Beat until they were genuinely convinced!

"Spirit Gathering Seal!" Ye Yuan cried out.

Only to see Ye Yuan's hands move like phantoms. Seals fired out one by one.

All of a sudden, Ye Yuan's essence energy storm became violent again!

Originally, Ye Yuan's essence energy storm already became incomparably thin under Li Zhangyu's pillaging with the danger of dissipating at any time.

But now, it was like Ye Yuan's essence energy tempest was injected with stimulants, forcefully snatching much essence energy from Li Zhangyu's side, and was even strengthening continuously!

As a high ranking alchemist, he needed to master countless seals.

There would be times where an alchemist would gather essence energy in order to raise the quality of medicinal pills. This Spirit Gathering Seal was a more low-end seal among them.

Ye Yuan would frequently use it when his realm was lower in his previous life. After his realm rose, he rarely used it.

But when using it now, it was still incomparably fluent, and the effect was also extremely powerful.

With the guidance of the seal, Ye Yuan's essence energy storm was like a vortex, building up unendingly.

"Haha, didn't I say that Ye Yuan wouldn't admit defeat so easily? So what if he's a Heavenly Sky Sect's Crystal Formation Realm? Displaying his paltry skills before an expert like Ye Yuan, he entrapped himself, right?"

"That's right! Wait until Ye Yuan loots the essence energy over at his side clean. See how he breaks through!"

"No biggie! To be haughty, you also have to look at the other person! You'll die a very miserable death if you posture in front of a genius who grasped true intent! Haha!"

Looking at Ye Yuan turning the tides, Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples felt that they gained face.

Although they were not very familiar with Ye Yuan yet, they already took him as their own people.

Especially in front of outsiders' provocation, this kind of recognition would magnify limitlessly!

Li Zhangyu clearly also became conscious of this change and could not help being greatly astonished.

There was an impassable gulf between middle-stage Crystal Formation Realm and middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm. The commotion caused by him breaking through realms was actually pulled back by a puny little middle-stage Spirit Condensation Realm?

No wonder Luo Qingfeng was so vague earlier, rather like treasuring his own belongings.

Looking at it now, there was indeed something fishy!

"Heh heh, you certainly have some measly capabilities. But if you think that you can win me like this, then you're too naïve! Return for me!"

With a low cry, Li Zhangyu's aura skyrocketed once again!

Following that, his essence energy storm also became even more violent!

The essence energy that was initially snatched over by Ye Yuan returned to Li Zhangyu' essence energy storm once more!

Ye Yuan's efforts earlier were all in vain right now.

But Li Zhangyu's actions gave the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples a huge shock!

"What? This fellow was actually holding back so much extra strength!"

"No way? This commotion of his is probably catching up to breaking through Sixth Level Spirit Condensation Realm already! Could all the Heavenly Sky Sect's disciples be powerful to this extent?"

"What kind of joke is that?! Looking at his age, he's even a few years younger than Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Yujiu, but his cultivation realm has already surpassed Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu! If breaking through to the Fifth Level Crystal Formation Realm can cause such a powerful momentum, his strength is likely close to our personal disciples already!"

"Is this the strength of the Southern Domain's number one great sect? No wonder they dare to be so arrogant. How can other sects compare to this strength?"

"Ye Yuan is on his last legs! If it continues to get pillaged like this, Ye Yuan's breakthrough failing is a minor matter; he might even injure his foundations!"

To a certain degree, the strength of the essence energy tempest could represent a martial artist's strength and potential.

The essence energy storm when Ye Yuan broke through was several times stronger than ordinary people. This could reflect his strength to a certain extent.

But Li Zhangyu's essence energy storm being so powerful meant that his true strength was definitely much stronger than a Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm.

As for how his true strength was, it was hard to gauge, but it was definitely ridiculously strong!

Seeing this scene, Luo Qingfeng's expression was also not too good.

He reckoned that Li Zhangyu's strength was roughly the same as Mo Yuntian, but his age was nearly ten years younger than Mo Yuntian!

After ten years, what extent could Li Zhangyu reach?

Furthermore, Luo Qingfeng dared to confirm that Li Zhangyu's strength was absolutely not considered the peak among the personal disciples.

Luo Qingfeng did not even dare to imagine anymore!

The disparity was already so great between the junior generations. Where would the sect's future lie?

Could he really swallow humiliation and shoulder the burden to wait for the day the Tranquil Cloud Sect rose? Luo Qingfeng involuntarily started to doubt it.

The gap between the two sects was currently widening with each step and not shrinking!

Besides . . . could Ye Yuan still mature smoothly after experiencing such a setback today?

Chapter 282: I'm Very Willful!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Under Li Zhangyu's pillaging, Ye Yuan's essence energy storm became smaller and smaller.

When the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples saw this scene, they unwittingly had the feeling of the fox mourning the death of a hare.

This was the Tranquil Cloud Sect's, no, the Southern Domain's number one genius!

Was he going to fail like this?

Although they were unresigned to this, they also knew that this was not that their combat power was weak.

It was the opponent who was too strong. No matter how much of a genius Ye Yuan was, he was only a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist, while his opponent was a genius martial artist from the Southern Domain's number one great sect!

Perhaps in terms of potential, Ye Yuan tossed Li Zhangyu several streets behind. But presently, Li Zhangyu was a whole major realm higher than Ye Yuan!

If it were others, they did not even have the qualifications to force Li Zhangyu to use his full strength and would just directly lay down their arms and surrender.

But Ye Yuan, a puny little Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist, forced out the other party's full strength!

Originally, Li Zhangyu had a relaxed look even when breaking through. But now, his entire body was tensed. He was clearly straining himself a lot more.

Although Ye Yuan's Spirit Gathering Seal was only a very low-level seal, Ye Yuan's attainments were extremely profound. How could it be so easy to seize essence energy from him?

Facing this situation, Ye Yuan had a composed face as if it had nothing to do with him at all.

It was only to see him took out several essence crystals calmly and casually struck them out. They transformed into several rays of light that flew in multiple directions.

Essence crystals were crystalline bodies formed from heaven and earth essence energy. There was powerful yet pure essence energy contained within. Sect disciples mostly used essence crystals when cultivating.

In the martial arts world, essence crystals were also used as currency.

Essence crystals were very precious. Even core disciples did not have the right to use them. Only elite disciples would have an extremely small number of low-grade essence crystals every month.

Of course, Ye Yuan was also allotted some low-grade essence crystals every month with his nominal elder status.

The few essence crystals that Ye Yuan just casually fired out were middle-grade essence crystals. This was given to him by Skymaple after completing the Level Nine mission previously.

Nonchalantly firing out so many middle-grade essence crystals made everyone's eyes pop out.

This was really quite extravagant!

"What's Ye Yuan trying to do? Those seem to be middle-grade essence crystals earlier, right? Wasn't he still core disciple status before this? Where did it come from?"

"Who cares where it came from?! The Heavenly Sky Sect already bullied to our doorstep to smack our faces, and you're still in the mood to mind this?"

"Cough, cough, isn't it because of momentary excitement? I say, what's Ye Yuan doing here? Could it be that he still has a chance to turn the tide?"

"Ye Yuan's methods are inexhaustible. There might really be a chance to turn defeat into victory! Using so many middle-grade essence crystals at once, Ye Yuan can't be throwing stones to play, right?"

"En? What's going on? Why do I feel like the surrounding essence energy seems to be drained?"

Li Zhangyu currently had his full focus on seizing Ye Yuan's essence energy and breaking through. He did not see Ye Yuan's actions.

But at this time, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. The surrounding essence energy suddenly became much thicker, and there were increasingly more currents!

Opening his eyes to take a look, Li Zhangyu immediately jumped in fright.

As the few light spots around Ye Yuan sparkled, the surrounding essence energy became increasingly wild.

"Spirit Gathering Formation! Are you mad, punk? Your Dantian will be stuffed until it explodes!" Li Zhangyu exclaimed.

Ye Yuan turned to look at him and said with a faint smile, "No problem. Isn't there you to be buried with me?"

Li Zhangyu cried out weirdly, "Madman! You're really a madman! Quickly stop!"

Ye Yuan made use of middle-grade essence crystals as the eye of the formation to set up a Tier 3 Spirit Gathering Formation.

Originally, with Ye Yuan's Spirit Condensation Realm strength, it was impossible to set up a Tier 3 Spirit Gathering Formation.

But he borrowed Li Zhangyu's essence energy storm ingeniously, leading the big with small, overcoming a greater force with only a small amount of strength, and successfully set up such an array formation.

The formation had already activated. The essence energy in the surrounding dozen of mile radius was siphoned clean by the Spirit Gathering Formation.

Such power, forget about Li Zhangyu, a puny little Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm, even if a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm were here, they would also not dare to borrow such an essence energy storm to breakthrough!

No matter how one looked at it, Ye Yuan doing this was a way of perishing together. If the two of them continued to breakthrough here, the outcome would only be being stuffed to death by essence energy.

Such a level of essence energy storm had clearly already exceeded the limits that Li Zhangyu could withstand.

"Doesn't this Senior Apprentice Brother like to join in the fun? I created even more fun for you; why aren't you joining in now?" Ye Yuan still smiled faintly as he said.

How could Li Zhangyu bother to bicker with Ye Yuan at this time? If this continued, his Dantian was going to explode from being bloated!

"Let's keep calm and talk. Just now, it was me who was rash. Remove your formation first then talk!" Li Zhangyu already had some hint of yielding in his words.

Li Zhangyu was also like an arrow notched on the bow right now; it must fly.

If he gave up on breaking through, he would definitely receive a backlash and affect his breakthrough after today. If he continued breaking through, how could he withstand such an essence energy storm?

He was originally thinking of putting the Tranquil Cloud Sect on the spot, but now, it was hard to dismount the tiger.

But Ye Yuan laughed and said, "I'm very willful. If others find me to play, I'll definitely play to the end! You can choose to withdraw if you're not playing."

"You! Fine, I want to see just how you play yourself to death in a while!" Li Zhangyu gnashed his teeth and said.

"That's none of your concern," Ye Yuan said nonchalantly.

Li Zhangyu already decided not to play anymore. He wanted to stop the breakthrough and withdraw out of the essence energy storm.

The timing Li Zhangyu that retreated was perfect. The essence energy storm gathered by the Spirit Gathering Formation had already formed. Even if he pulled back right now, it was already too late for Ye Yuan to want to dismiss it.

Li Zhangyu did not believe that Ye Yuan really dared to break through realms in this place!

Li Zhangyu forcefully terminated his breakthrough and immediately suffered a backlash. He only felt a metallic taste in his throat, and a mouthful of blood was about to spew out but was forcibly held back by him.

He leaped with all his might and actually withstood the violent essence energy tempest and charged out of it.

The essence energy storm was currently already virtually materialized, visible with the naked eye; just like a tornado.

Li Zhangyu being able to withdraw leisurely also sufficiently showed that his strength was very great.

After exiting, Li Zhangyu no longer had that arrogance from before. The Heavenly Sky Sect uniform on him was already torn into tattered rags by the essence energy storm.

After leaving the essence energy storm, Li Zhangyu could not hold back any longer and spewed out a large mouthful of blood.

He devoted all his power just now to break through but was forcefully stopped by him again. He clearly sustained extremely strong backlash and already suffered very severe internal injuries.

Failing the breakthrough this time, the next time Li Zhangyu wanted to break through to the Fifth Level Crystal Formation Realm again, it would most likely not be so easy anymore.

Of course, with Li Zhangyu's talent, breaking through was inevitable. But this would surely delay him a very large amount of time!

Thinking up to here, Li Zhangyu felt very depressed. This time, he really tried to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice.

But looking at Ye Yuan who was still in the heart of the essence energy storm, a trace of delight flashed across Li Zhangyu's heart.

"Hahaha, this punk is indeed willful! So willful until he played himself to death! With such a violent essence energy storm, I want to see just how you can break through! I really want to see right now just what kind of appearance you'll have when your body explodes, and you die!" Li Zhangyu turned over and said manically.

Chapter 283: Luo Qingfeng's Fang!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Ye Yuan was in the eye of the storm, his clothes fluttering.

Currently, the ferocity of the essence energy around him was practically suffocating.

And Ye Yuan's breakthrough also entered the critical juncture at this time already.

Such violent essence energy, ordinary people could not even refine it; let alone say breaking through realms.

But the essence energy flowing within Ye Yuan's body outside of his body produced an intense contrast.

Once the violent and condensed essence energy entered Ye Yuan's body, it immediately became unbelievably docile.

In front of the Spirit Bristle Nine Yang Divine Art, this level of essence energy was seriously not worth mentioning.

However, the essence energy was overly abundant currently. Ye Yuan refined non-stop and reached the critical point of the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm very soon.

"About to break through! Just a little bit more! I hope that nothing happens to Ye Yuan!"

"Why would something happen now? It's the most dangerous after breaking through. Breaching the bottleneck requires large amounts of essence energy, just like flood water bursting open the water gate. But once this floodgate is opened, wanting to shut it would not be so easy!"

"Yeah! Normally, when we break through, we would gather an essence energy storm matching our realm so that we can control it. But this essence energy storm has already greatly surpassed the limits that Ye Yuan can withstand. Once the floodgate opens, I'm afraid . . . it will collapse!"

Seeing that Ye Yuan was on the verge of breaking through, the heavily injured Li Zhangyu said gloatingly, "A puny little Spirit Condensation Realm actually dares to break through within such a violent essence energy tempest. You truly don't know how the word death is written! In a while, when they see you being blown to pieces, I wonder what kind of expression your Tranquil Cloud Sect people will have. Hehe."

Right at this moment, Ye Yuan's aura swelled abruptly and became much stronger than before.

It was very clear that he burst past the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm bottleneck in one go!

Everyone's hearts leaped to their throats. Many people even involuntarily shut their eyes. They did not wish to see the scene of Ye Yuan exploding.

At the same time, the essence energy around Ye Yuan that became even more tempestuous had already transformed into a bundle of mist-like state. From this, it could be seen just how thick the essence energy in the center of the storm was!

The thick fog covered up Ye Yuan's figure. The outside could no longer see what was happening inside. But everyone knew that Ye Yuan was currently wrestling with the flood like essence energy.

"Dead for sure! He's definitely dead! This brat is also a talent, to actually set up such an incredible Tier 3 Spirit Gathering Formation. The essence energy in the eye of the formation practically became liquid state already. Even if I were the one breaking through in the eye of the formation, I probably would have exploded by now already, much less a Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm." Li Zhangyu directly sentenced Ye Yuan to death.

"Sect Master, Ye Yuan, he . . ." the disciple who received Li Zhangyu previously said anxiously.

Luo Qingfeng sucked in a deep breath and sighed, "At this time, only Ye Yuan alone can help himself. Pray that he can come out alive."

These words sounded that bit unconfident no matter how one heard it. Under such a situation, the possibility of escaping with his life was too minuscule!As time slowly ticked away, there was still no activity in the eye of the formation. Everyone's hope evaporated bit by bit.

If Ye Yuan could leave, he would have left long ago. Now, under such circumstances, most likely . . . it was more ominous than propitious.

At present, Li Zhangyu consumed medicinal pills that controlled internal injuries and returned to Luo Qingfeng's side.

"Sect Master Luo, I think there's no need to wait anymore. There's no activity after such a long time, that boy most likely already exploded into a lump of meat by now," Li Zhangyu said delightedly.

Hearing these words, Luo Qingfeng's entire person became icy. Li Zhangyu immediately felt a powerful pressure crushing forth.

"I exercised forbearance in every way possible on accounts of your master's face. Do you think that my Tranquil Cloud Sect can be kneaded as you like? If your master were here, I'd still have some fear. You, a Crystal Formation Realm, reaching out for a yard after taking an inch, do you really take me to be made of clay?"

Luo Qingfeng carried the powerful awe of a half-step Soul Sea Realm, crushing Li Zhangyu until he could not breathe.

Li Zhangyu's incessant provocation finally angered this master of a sect!

To be able to become the master of a sect, Luo Qingfeng was absolutely not some goody two-shoes that could be sliced up anyhow. The reason why he accommodated for the general interest was only to hide one's capability and bid one's time, to strive for time to let the Tranquil Cloud Sect's junior generation grow up.

But now that Ye Yuan's life or death was uncertain and the sect's greatest hope about to be extinguished, this also made Luo Qingfeng lose his last trace of patience!

Once a ferocious tiger bared its fangs, someone who assumed the majesty of the tiger like Li Zhangyu did not have much living space anymore!

Luo Qingfeng released his aura fully. Li Zhangyu only felt like he was being crushed by a humongous mountain. Even his teeth were chattering.

Li Zhangyu only understood at this moment that this seemingly weak and incompetent Tranquil Cloud Sect's Sect Master actually had such formidable strength!

Such a powerful pressure, Li Zhangyu only felt this from his own master before!

Could it be that Luo Qingfeng's strength was no longer beneath Master's?

How was this possible?

"You . . . You dare to touch me? I-I'm the . . . Heavenly Sky Sect's envoy! A-aren't you scared of launching a sect war?" Li Zhangyu gritted his teeth and said.

Luo Qingfeng sneered coldly and said, "You'd best pray that Ye Yuan's fine. Otherwise, I'll use you as a sacrificial item today! Sect war? Do you think that you can trigger a sect war with the likes of you? You're overestimating yourself too much! If the Heavenly Sky Sect could eradicate my Tranquil Cloud Sect so easily, why would they wait until now?"

It dawned onto Li Zhangyu when he heard it, and the color of his face turned deathly-white. He flopped weakly onto the ground.

"The eight great sects each have their own forte, yet also restrain each other. My Tranquil Cloud Sect is not as powerful as your Heavenly Sky Sect, but a sect war will cause a domino effect. Isn't your sect master scared of the other seven sects joining hands? After all, our today is their future! All of the sect masters are not dumb. How could they not understand this logic?"

Luo Qingfeng's words struck the core one by one, speaking until Li Zhangyu's complexion became increasingly paler.

Heavenly Sky Sect disciples were used to being arrogant while the Tranquil Cloud Sect was always very low profile, resulting in Li Zhangyu thinking that the Tranquil Cloud Sect was only a rotten persimmon, able to knead the latter as he wished and had no respect even for Luo Qingfeng.

Looking at it now, he was only a clown. He was not even a fart in front of Luo Qingfeng.

With the strength of Sea Transformation Realm, one simply had no say in the interactions between sects.

Who could have thought that the Luo Qingfeng who had always been famously weak would also have such a ferocious side!

Looking at that mass of thick fog, Li Zhangyu suddenly discovered that he made a fatal error today: he touched Luo Qingfeng's reverse scale!

And this brat called Ye Yuan was Luo Qingfeng's reverse scale!

How could Li Zhangyu know what Luo Qingfeng was thinking?

Luo Qingfeng was currently thinking of how to give an account to that mysterious master of Ye Yuan!

Once that unimaginably powerful existence came to ask for him, what awaited his Tranquil Cloud Sect was also an utter calamity!

( Updated by )

If Ye Yuan really died, why would he still fear a sect war?

Compared to that mysterious expert, the Heavenly Sky Sect was nothing!

At that time, the ones getting destroyed was likely not just his Tranquil Cloud Sect alone. The Heavenly Sky Sect likewise could not escape responsibility!

Chapter 284: Canghua Reborn

"I'm also not afraid to tell you that Ye Yuan is a peerless genius that my Tranquil Cloud Sect discovered. He's my Tranquil Cloud Sect's future. If something happens to him today, you're . . . dead for sure!" Luo Qingfeng said fiercely with a stern expression.

Li Zhangyu felt his scalp tingle. He could sense Luo Qingfeng's fury. These words were absolutely not just to scare him.

"A-Are you mad? To incite a sect war at all cost for such a genius that had yet to mature?"

Li Zhangyu felt that this world was too insane. Luo Qingfeng actually stopped at no expense to become enemies with the Heavenly Sky Sect for a puny little Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist.

Although Li Zhangyu was not the most powerful among the younger generation in the Heavenly Sky Sect, he was someone with extremely huge potential.

Chi Zongtao doted on him very heavily. If he died, Chi Zongtao would definitely not let it go at that.

Although a sect war might affect the situation as a whole, it was possible to erupt because of this!

Li Zhangyu involuntarily looked towards that mass of thick fog. Alarm suddenly showed on his face!

"S-Sect Master Luo, quickly look!" Li Zhangyu pointed in the direction of the essence energy storm and shouted.

Luo Qingfeng's heart jolted, and he looked over there, only to see that the essence energy storm was currently weakening at a visible rate.

This kind of weakening was not dissipation, but converging towards the eye of the formation.

It looked like it was sucked over by something.

Luo Qingfeng's expression became intent. His heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Regardless of what situation occurred, at least it showed that Ye Yuan was still alive right now. Otherwise, the essence energy storm should be gradually dispersing and not being sucked over like this.

As long as Ye Yuan did not die, anything was fine!

The group of Tranquil Cloud Sect disciple clearly also noticed this chance. Although they were somewhat uncertain, didn't it meant that Ye Yuan was at least still alive?

"What happened? Ye Yuan, he did not die yet!"

"Truly inconceivable! He actually lasted such a long time in the substantialized essence energy storm! What in the world did he do?"

"The mystery should be unraveling very soon! You guys, look! That mass of thick fog is starting to dissipate!"

The speed which essence energy was being absorbed was very swift. That mass of thick fog gradually became thin and revealed a blurry silhouette.

Everyone stared fixedly at the eye of the storm. That silhouette became clearer and clearer.

Everybody could see that that was Ye Yuan!

Seeing that Ye Yuan did not die, a wave of shouting and screaming came from the crowd.

Unknowingly, they already took Ye Yuan as their own comrade and took him as the face of the Tranquil Cloud Sect.

The Tranquil Cloud Sect was oppressed too heavily these few years. Every disciple felt as though they experienced this aspect themselves!

Now that such a genius character appeared with such difficulty, it would really be too pitiful if he were to die like this.

Just earlier, each one of them felt the Heavenly Sky Sect's humiliation, but they were helpless!

Touching their own hearts, no matter which of them took Ye Yuan's place, they were also unable to perform like Ye Yuan.

Even if the Tranquil Cloud Sect found a Fourth Level Crystal Formation Realm disciple and placed him beside Li Zhangyu, the final outcome would probably be suffering a defeat when victory was within reach.

Ye Yuan regained face on all of their behalfs!

Not only did Ye Yuan force Li Zhangyu until he had to withdraw with serious injuries with Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation, he even survived completely unscathed!

In their hearts, Ye Yuan had already become the hero of the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect!

"Quickly look! What's Ye Yuan doing? Isn't that his spirit artifact? Those essence energies seemed to have been absorbed by this sword!"

"It really looks like it! But . . . how can a spirit artifact absorb so much essence energy? Hang on! Unless . . ."

The two people exchanged a glanced and saw the shock in the other person's eyes. They said in unison, "Spirit Artifact Sanctification!"

Li Zhangyu similarly showed an astonished expression. He sucked in a cold breath and said, "He actually made use of the Spirit Gathering Formation to sanctify his spirit artifact! Is this boy . . . really just a teenager?"

Luo Qingfeng was also incomparably shocked. He never imagined that Ye Yuan could actually utilize the Spirit Gathering Formation to sanctify the Canghua Sword!

However, when he saw that gaping mouth look of Li Zhangyu, Luo Qingfeng felt pleased in his heart.

Luo Qingfeng was feeling excellent, but his words were nonchalant as he said, "Through and through. Ye Yuan he . . . is still two months short of reaching 16! Congratulations to you. Your small life is secured."

When he heard these words from Luo Qingfeng, Li Zhangyu had a feeling like a heavy load was lifted. His back was already drenched in sweat.

Before long, the violent essence energy was already pretty much absorbed clean.

Canghua Sword suspended in front of Ye Yuan quietly. But it was currently missing some parts of sharp air and was dimmer than before.

Ye Yuan slowly opened both eyes. Canghua Sword gave off a crisp clang and shot straight for the horizon!

Everybody only saw a streak of flowing light dancing in mid-air, akin to a canary which broke free. That sort of carefree feeling infected everyone.

"32 restrictions spirit artifact! In a twinkle, an 8 restrictions spirit artifact became a 32 restrictions spirit artifact! Ye Yuan, he is really too amazing!"

"Spirit Artifact Sanctification is an incredibly challenging matter. Every additional restriction would be exceedingly difficult! One has to ensure that adding new restrictions will not clash with previous ones and also ensure the increase in power. Ordinary array formation masters would not dare to easily increase restrictions for spirit artifacts!"

"Abnormal cultivation speed, grasped true intent, heard that his Alchemy Dao attainments are also exceedingly high. Now, even his Array Formation Dao attainments are so strong; is he still a human?"

Sensing the power of restrictions coming off from the reborn Canghua Sword, everyone gasped in amazement.

8 restrictions to 32 restrictions. This was an extremely huge jump!

If spirit artifact could cultivate, then 8 restrictions to 32 restrictions would be rising two major realms consecutively!

This kind of enormous crossing would greatly increase the power of a spirit artifact!

One could say that the Canghua Sword had obtained a transformation that cast off its old self and be reborn again. It was no wonder that it was so excited.

Seemingly bored of playing around, Canghua Sword's luster was restrained, and it landed in Ye Yuan's hands obediently.

Lightly caressing the sword body, Ye Yuan was also very pleased with his own work.

At his current realm, this was already the limits of what he could accomplish.

The 32 restrictions Canghua Sword was enough to last him all the way to the Sea Transformation Realm.

Ye Yuan's Array Formation Dao attainments were incredible. Sanctifying a 32 restrictions spirit artifact was not much to him.

It was just that it was quite taxing for him to do it due to limitations in realm.

Li Zhangyu coincidentally came over to cause trouble. Ye Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and laid down this Spirit Gather Formation to sanctify the Canghua Sword.

Along with Ye Yuan's comprehension towards the Azure Dipper Floating Zero Sword Intent getting increasingly deeper, especially when using Thousand Flowing Petals, the 8 restrictions Canghua Sword was already gradually having difficulties coping.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Yuan successfully sanctified it in one go.

Keeping the Canghua Sword, Ye Yuan walked towards Li Zhangyu and greet him. But he smiled at Li Zhangyu and said, "This Senior Apprentice Brother doesn't seem to be someone from my Tranquil Cloud Sect. But you were also of a huge assistance to me this time. Ye Yuan give thanks here."

Looking at the grinning Ye Yuan, Li Zhangyu felt even worse than swallowing a fly!

Chapter 285: Unknown Mystic Realm

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

Although Ye Yuan's Tier 3 Spirit Gathering Formation was strong, it was also unable to gather so much essence energy.

The reason why it could cause such a huge commotion before was that Ye Yuan used a maneuver to lift something heavy using only a little force. Using the two person's essence energy storms as the base, it magnified the pair's essence energy storms limitlessly.

No matter how strong Ye Yuan was, he was only a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist. If he did not have the pair's essence energy storms has the base, how could he plunder the essence energies in a ten-mile radius clean?

Li Zhangyu tasted blood again in his throat. The internal injuries that were just suppressed relapsed again and he nearly spurted out a mouthful of blood. Fortunately, he endured it.

"Li Zhangyu is an honored guest from the Heavenly Sky Sect. He indeed has the grace of a great sect disciple, deriving pleasure from helping others." Luo Qingfeng supplemented another blow right after.

"Heavenly Sky Sect?" Ye Yuan looked perplexed. Clearly, he had not heard of this name before.

Luo Qingfeng froze, and he could not help asking, "You don't know the Heavenly Sky Sect?"

Ye Yuan shook his head blankly and said, "This disciple came from a small place, and my knowledge is superficial. I really don't know the Heavenly Sky Sect."

Luo Qingfeng was speechless. He explained, "Heavenly Sky Sect is the Southern Domain's number one great sect, the leader of the Eight Great Sects. Zhangyu is a Heavenly Sky Sect Grand Elder's favored disciple. You're my sect's elder. Calling senior apprentice brother is acceptable."

Li Zhangyu was secretly shocked. Ye Yuan was already a sect elder at this age?

However, he had yet to be surprised by this when Ye Yuan was suddenly enlightened and said, "Ah! So that's how it is! The Heavenly Sky Sect is as expected the Southern Domain's number one great sect. Their grand elder's disciple actually sacrificed his own interests for the sake of others and would rather his own realm fall just to help others. Ye Yuan is eternally grateful,"

"Puhwark!"

Li Zhangyu finally could not hold back, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out. It was already injuries on top of injuries.

The two people sang and chimed together. Li Zhangyu was ultimately young. How could he endure such stimulation?

But Ye Yuan really did not know the Heavenly Sky Sect, not that he was singing a duet with Luo Qingfeng.

But the effects were the same.After two days, Li Zhangyu's injuries took a turn for the better. Luo Qingfeng summoned him.

Presently, Li Zhangyu was much more restrained and was no longer as arrogant as when he had just arrived.

Luo Qingfeng's aura on that day thoroughly suppressed him.

"Are your injuries better?" Luo Qingfeng asked like he was engaging in small talk.

It was fine if he did not mention that. But once it was raised, Li Zhangyu's inner heart felt as painful as his scar being reopened.

"Already much better. Many thanks for Sect Master Luo's concern," Li Zhangyu forced a smile and said.

"En. It's good that it's much better. Zhangyu, for what matter did you come to my Tranquil Cloud Sect as an envoy this trip for?" Luo Qingfeng queried.

Talking about official matters, Li Zhangyu hurriedly collected his emotions and said, "My Heavenly Sky Sect discovered a mystic realm not long ago within our borders and think that there should be some good stuff inside. Our Southern Domain's Eight Great Sects has always been united. Sect Master specially dispatched seven disciples to leave for the seven sects to invite everyone to explore the mystic realm together so as to give fair treatment to all!"

Luo Qingfeng was expressionless, but he started to deliberate on the intentions of this move by the Heavenly Sky Sect in his heart.

Whatever united, what fair treatment, that could only hoodwink a three year old kid.

The Southern Domain's Eight Great Sects, including the Tranquil Cloud Sect, each had their own little plans.

The Tranquil Cloud Sect never had the heart to contend for hegemony in the Southern Domain.

The sect members' ambition was always to storm back to the Northern Domain.

Of course, this was merely a distant dream.

The reality was that the Tranquil Cloud Sect could only survive within the crevices of the various Southern Domain sects.

The Heavenly Sky Sect had always been very domineering. Forget about a mystic realm in their own territory; they would even think of ways to get a cup of soup from other people's mystic realms.

There must be something strange for things to be abnormal!

If one were to say that the Heavenly Sky Sect was really that good-hearted, even a fool would not believe it.

But one had to admit that the Heavenly Sky Sect tossed out a remarkably tempting bait. Luo Qingfengr reckoned that the other sects would likely be unable to refuse this invitation because even he himself was moved.

What did the development of the sect rely on?

Resources!

Essence crystals, natural treasures, cultivation methods, artifacts, and so on. These things more or less determined the power of a sect.

As the most powerful sect in the Southern Domain, the Heavenly Sky Sect occupied 40% of the Southern Domain's resources!

The other seven great sects added up only came up to 60% or so!

It was precisely because of these resources that ensured that the Heavenly Sky Sect always looked down on the world.

And among those, natural treasures were a very crucial part of resources.

The sect disciples' daily consumption, medicinal pills used in cultivation, and medicinal herbs were a huge expenditure. Without the accumulation of these resources, the sect would simply be unable to sustain, no matter how deep your foundations were.

And where did these natural treasures come from?

Mystic realms!

Mystic realms were miniature spaces neighboring the Endless World. Because human footmarks were scarce and essence energy was abundant, it tends to give birth to many natural treasures.

Within the various Southern Domain sect boundaries, they all had some mystic realms, and these mystic realms were all controlled by the various great sects.

These mystic realms were all known mystic realms. The dangers within have already pretty much been eliminated by the various great sects.

But the mystic realm discovered by the Heavenly Sky Sect this time was evidently an unknown mystic realm!

Extremely few humans existed in mystic realms. But there were many demonic beasts as well as naturally formed dangers!

Exploring mystic realms was an extremely perilous task!

Ignoring other things, just the Heavenly Sky Sect inviting other sects to explore the mystic realm together most likely had the notion of bringing more cannon fodder.

As for whether they had other plans, Luo Qingfeng could not determine it right now.

"What kind of mystic realm? Give a description," Luo Qingfeng said while maintaining his composure.

"An unknown mystic realm! We've already sent people in to investigate. The natural treasures inside are beyond counting. It's said that there are many Tier 3, Quasi-Tier 4 medicinal herbs inside. There are also quite a few Tier 4 herbs and some extremely rare herbs which can all be found inside!" Li Zhangyu said.

Luo Qingfeng suddenly smiled and said, "I'm afraid that it isn't so simple, right? What I want to hear isn't this. What did you all encounter inside?"

Li Zhangyu's face changed but returned to normal very quickly. He said calmly, "We sent a total of three teams. They were completely wiped out!"

Luo Qingfeng frowned and said, "What kind of people did you send in?"

Facing Luo Qingfeng, Li Zhangyu became very alert.

This fellow was too astute. Every question hit the mark!

In the past, everyone always thought that he was somebody weak and incompetent because he was low-profile and tolerant.

Now, it looks like this fellow was simply an exceptionally clever and scheming person!

Now that Luo Qingfeng already bared his fangs in front of Li Zhangyu, he naturally had no need to disguise himself anymore.

Li Zhangyu cautiously said, "The first time, it was an early-stage Crystal Formation Realm leading the team. The second, the one leading was a middle-stage Crystal Formation Realm. The third time . . . it was a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist!"

"Oh? Since all your guys were wiped out, how do you know the news inside?" Luo Qingfeng asked composedly.

Li Zhangyu secretly cursed sly fox and said, "In the end, that Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist risked death to charge out and brought back this information. And not long after he exited, he died too. This unknown mystic realm might be somewhat dangerous, but the things inside are seriously too alluring. That's why Lord Sect Master ardently invites everyone to explore together."

Luo Qingfeng nodded and said, "You go back and rest first. Allow me to reconsider this."

After Li Zhangyu took his leave, the door to the room suddenly opened. Ling Potian, Xiao Jian, and Ouyang Yu walked out.

And behind them was Ye Yuan who had recently just broke through.

Chapter 286: Opinion

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"What do you guys think of the Heavenly Sky Sect's invitation?" Luo Qingfeng opened his mouth to ask after the few people sat down.

Xiao Jian was the first to speak. "Would the Heavenly Sky Sect be so kind-hearted? I won't believe that even if you beat me to death! In my opinion, this is a trap."

Ling Potian valued each word like gold and said, "Yes, definitely it is a trap."

Ouyang Yu mused for a while before saying, "I feel that the possibility of being a trap is not big. Rather, I think the likelihood of making us as the cannon fodders is greater."

Luo Qingfeng was emotionless as he asked again, "How so?"

"Exploring an unknown mystic realm such as this, it's impossible for the great sects to send out a very powerful force. Wanting to diminish the sects' existing strength through this is clearly not very likely. The way I see it, this unknown mystic realm might really be dangerous. The Heavenly Sky Sect hopes to drag everyone over to shoulder the dangers together to obtain the greatest benefits while at the same time, reducing their own casualties." Ouyang Yu analyzed the situation.

Compared to Xiao Jian, Ouyang Yu was clearly much calmer. His analysis was also rather objective.

"Humph! The Heavenly Sky Sect is just like an old miser. When they see mystic realms, it's like they get injected with stimulants. How can they be so nice this time to invite us to explore together?" Xiao Jian disagreed.

"Therefore, there must be something that we don't know in between. All in all, the Heavenly Sky Sect definitely doesn't have any good intentions. I feel that we can casually send some people over to brush them off," Ouyang Yu said.

"I disagree! Casually sending some people over to be cannon fodder for others? Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples are all groomed by us through innumerable painstaking efforts. How can we send them to their death?" Xiao Jian said with irritation in his tone.

About this point that the Heavenly Sky Sect did not have any good intentions, everybody did not have any disagreement, and it was also impossible to have differing opinions.

It was just that whether or go or not was a problem. It clearly caused some discrepancies.

Ouyang Yu still wanted to continue, but Luo Qingfeng made a hand gesture to indicate to them to stop arguing. He turned and said to Ye Yuan, "Ye Yuan, share your perspective."

After the incident with Li Zhangyu, Luo Qingfeng's understanding of Ye Yuan went up another level.

Ye Yuan could set up a Spirit Gathering Formation under that sort of abrupt situation and force Li Zhangyu away while he himself went along with the strategy to sanctify Canghua Sword. It was evident how meticulous his thoughts were!

The way Luo Qingfeng saw things, Ye Yuan's talent was without question. It was simply on a different level from his peers.

But for him to even possess such meticulous thinking at this age, it was truly hard to come by.

Hence, he intentionally called Ye Yuan over today to let him also listen to the purpose of the Heavenly Sky Sect sending an envoy. Perhaps he could come up with some constructive opinions.

When Xiao Jian and the others saw Ye Yuan, they were also stupefied for a long time, and could not quite ascertain Luo Qingfeng's thoughts.

This action, could it be to let Ye Yuan participate in the Tranquil Cloud Sect upper echelons' decision-making?

Ye Yuan's talent was unrivaled, this fact was already irrefutable by anyone. But he was so young; wasn't it somewhat trifling to let him join in the sect upper echelon in decision making?

Especially for Ouyang Yu. When Ye Yuan had just entered the sect, he even acceded to Ouyang Ming's inciting and wanted to sentence Ye Yuan to death through the Tri-Hall Joint Hearing.

But later on, a series of Ye Yuan's actions thoroughly dispelled any thoughts of opposing Ye Yuan.

Especially after Ye Yuan sold the Soul Driving Pill formula to the sect. Several elders from the Ouyang Family already obtained a breakthrough with help from the Soul Driving Pill.

Under such circumstances, how could Ouyang Yu bring himself to oppose Ye Yuan again?

Wouldn't he become an ungrateful petty character?

As for Ouyang Ming's side, Ouyang Yu already issued a strict order to make him watch his woman well to not stir up any more shit. Otherwise, bear the consequences himself!

A tiny little secular world family did not enter Ouyang Yu's eyes yet; let alone the fact that this family clan was already wasted.

Ye Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "If it's as Li Zhangyu said, then this mystic realm is similarly of utmost importance to our sect. Our Tranquil Cloud Sect simply can't compare to these great sects in terms of resources. If we even give up on this chance as well, wouldn't we lag behind with each step? I reckon that other sect masters also can't resist this large cake that the Heavenly Sky Sect delivered and will send people forth."

After that day, Luo Qingfeng gave Ye Yuan a crash course on the faction distribution in the Southern Domain. Now, he already had a preliminary understanding of the Southern Domain's situation.

"But this mystic realm is so dangerous. Even a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm did not make it out alive after entering. Could it be that we all have to send Sea Transformation Realm elders in?" Xiao Jian threw out this question.

Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "That isn't necessary. Because I think that even if we send elders there, it's useless too."

"Oh? Why is that?" Luo Qingfeng asked.

When Ye Yuan said this, not only Xiao Jian, even Luo Qingfeng revealed an attentive expression.

It was very clear that Ye Yuan noticed some issues that they did not realize.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Sect Master and Hall Heads, think about it. With the Heavenly Sky Sect's greed, how can they possibly send people to invite other sects to explore the mystic realm together unless they had no other alternatives?"

"That's why we were all guessing earlier whether the Heavenly Sky Sect is plotting some insidious scheme!" Xiao Jian.

Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "Just as Hall Head Ouyang said, these sort of wiles and schemes don't have much use. Even if our teams were all annihilated, it wouldn't harm our sect's foundations. Why do they need to take such a superfluous action?"

"Then you say; just what is it?" Xiao Jian said anxiously.

"Why did Li Zhangyu only say that they sent a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm into the mystic realm? Although Sea Transformation Realm is a mid-level pillar in the various great sects, the Heavenly Sky Sect wouldn't treasure life to such an extent, right?" Ye Yuan said with a grin.

Luo Qingfeng was absorbed in his thoughts as he said, "You're saying . . . they already sent a Sea Transformation Realm inside?"

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "That's right! Furthermore, that Sea Transformation Realm definitely did not come back alive!"

Everyone sucked in a cold breath. Thinking it over, Ye Yuan's analysis was plainly the most logical.

It was just that when Li Zhangyu was talking, he deliberately clouded this area. That was why everybody did not think of it.

After all, a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm was already very important to a sect. Even for a large sect like Heavenly Sky Sect, it was also impossible to abandon them at will. Hence, Luo Qingfeng did not think deeper into this problem either.

But when they heard Ye Yuan say that even a Sea Transformation Realm did not make it out alive, their hearts would not stop pounding.

Wasn't this unknown mystic realm a little too perilous?

"Even a Sea Transformation Realm died inside. Then even more so we must not go!" Xiao Jian said with a frown.

To the Tranquil Cloud Sect, they could not afford the death of any Sea Transformation Realm expert.

But Luo Qingfeng did not speak right away. He only spoke after thinking it over, "Ye Yuan, were your words unfinished? Should we go or not?"

Towards this Luo Qingfeng, Ye Yuan also quite admired him. He was unquestionably a terrifying figure with meticulous thoughts.

These few years, if not for him, the Tranquil Cloud Sect might be in even more arduous circumstances than now.

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Go. Why shouldn't we go? There are surely many natural treasures in this mystic realm. Otherwise, the Heavenly Sky Sect would have forsaken it themselves. This is also an opportunity for our sect!"

Chapter 287: Skymaple Exits Seclusion!

Translator: celefoata_ Editor: RegiusProfessor

"Ye Yuan! Even a Sea Transformation Realm lost his life after entering! Do you want our elders to seek their own doom?"

Ling Potian rarely said so many words. It was just that he was very stern currently. The average disciple would probably start stammering when they saw it.

"Potian, let Ye Yuan finish talking," Luo Qingfeng said.

Ling Potian was stunned. He immediately shut his mouth and kept quiet.

Ye Yuan did not mind either. He continued, "If my conjectures are correct, it might be because the space isn't stable or due to restrictions on laws. Sea Transformation Realm and above martial artists are unable to enter this mystic realm. It's overly dangerous for Crystal Formation Realm martial artists to enter; that's why the Heavenly Sky Sect would join hands with the other seven sects to explore together in an unprecedented event."

Luo Qingfeng was also very surprised. He said, "So that's the case! This way, everything can be explained! It's just that since this is the case, it's surely very risky for Crystal Formation Realm martial artist to enter. Do we still join in the bustle?"

"Wealth comes with danger! The dangers are all the same to us Eight Great Sects. The Heavenly Sky Sect is just looking for more cannon fodders. Then, let's knock out one of their front teeth! Opportunities like this are not recurrent!" Ye Yuan said.

"Ye Yuan, I know that you're tremendously talented and your combat powers are also extremely great, but you mustn't look down on the other sects' junior generation! Especially the Heavenly Sky Sect. Their personal disciples are much stronger than Yuntian and the rest," Xiao Jian suddenly interjected and said gravely in a sincere tone.

As the Southern Domain's strongest sect, the Heavenly Sky Sect's personal disciples' strength was obviously the greatest!

Although Li Zhangyu was accepted as a personal disciple by a grand elder, that was only because his potential was huge.

In terms of real strength, he was not considered much in the Heavenly Sky Sect.

Those personal disciples with immense seniority were the existences with the greatest strength today.

Ye Yuan suddenly grinned and said, "I was only providing an opinion for Lord Sect Master. As for whether he accepts it or not, I dare not dispute. But if Sect Master decides to go ahead, I hope that I can be considered one of the members."

"No way! Even a Ninth Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist died inside. You're only at the Spirit Condensation Realm, going in is too dangerous! Ye Yuan, you're our Tranquil Cloud Sect's hope. I don't wish for you to be in any danger!" Luo Qingfeng directly rejected it.

You got to be kidding!

When he broke through two days ago, Luo Qingfeng was so frightened that he nearly crocked.

Exploring such a dangerous mystic realm this time, if anything were to happen, he would not be able to compensate even if he threw in the entire Tranquil Cloud Sect!

But Ye Yuan did not act appropriately with Luo Qingfeng's expectation. Luo Qingfeng knew that he could not convince Ye Yuan by looking at the expression in his eyes.

Luo Qingfeng was crying bitterness in his heart!

He initially already decided to go for it. But looking at this attitude from Ye Yuan, he started to hesitate again.

This living ancestor was really willful!

What did a Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist run over to play with a bunch of Crystal Formation Realm martial artists for?

"What's happening?"

Luo Qingfeng and the rest exchanged glances and suddenly thought of something. They could not help becoming wildly elated!

"Martial Uncle! He-He broke through! That's truly fantastic!" Xiao Jian said joyfully.

"Go! Let's go and take a look! Ye Yuan, you come too. You have great contributions for Martial Uncle to be able to break through!" Luo Qingfeng said.

The few people rushed to Skymaple Court at fire-speed only to see black clouds gathering over the court.

"It's Soul Tribulation! Martial Uncle he's starting to cross his Soul Tribulation!" Ouyang Yu exclaimed.

As an alchemist, his greatest wish was to be able to cross a Soul Tribulation once.

When martial artists open up the Sea Transformation Realm, Soul Sea Realm was going against the heavens. Hence, when martial artists cultivated to the Soul Sea Realm and beyond, they would face the test of heavenly tribulation!

And when alchemists cultivate past the Soul Sea Realm, their soul force would have a qualitative leap. Every breakthrough will similarly cause heavenly tribulation to descend!

However, the heavenly tribulation for alchemists was different from martial artists. It only targeted the divine soul. Hence, it was called soul tribulation!

If Ouyang Yu could breakthrough to the Soul Sea Realm and become an Alchemy King, he would experience the first soul tribulation in his life.

Except . . . this step was way too difficult for him!

That mass of dark clouds was not large, but the extremely horrifying energy was encompassed within it, filling people's heart with trepidation.

Before long, fine lightning began to fall, directly penetrating the residence, rumbling into the place that Skymaple was in seclusion.

The lightning grew progressively more and increasingly dense. Just the awe could make Crystal Formation Realm martial artists feel asphyxiated!

When Ye Yuan saw this familiar scene from far away, boundless emotions welled up in his heart.

In his previous life, he had tided over dozens of soul tribulations and was all too familiar with this.

But in this life, this was the first time Ye Yuan saw something like soul tribulation. It naturally aroused his boundless reminiscence.

Since it was called soul tribulation, it was a calamity for the martial artist's divine soul!

Many alchemists fell to the soul tribulation, their souls dispersed to the wind.

Alchemists who could cross dozens of soul tribulations and reach the pinnacle were all virtually invincible existences!

Ye Yuan in his previous life walked towards the pinnacle step by step like this.

But in this life, he believed that he would still walk like this step by step towards the pinnacle!

No, in this life, he wanted to walk even further!

The four people around him apparently did not notice Ye Yuan's gallant feel. They watched this scene anxiously.

Roughly an hour later, the lightning gradually lessened. The dark clouds in the sky also started to dissipate. The soul tribulation finally ended.

"Everyone, come in." Skymaple's words called them in. He had obviously discovered the people outside long ago.

It was just that this voice was rather worn out. It looks like the Skymaple who had just crossed the soul tribulation was still quite weak.

But Ye Yuan knew that this kind of weakness would not persist for long. Very soon, Skymaple's soul force would increase explosively and truly reach the level of middle-rank Alchemy King.

Seeing Ye Yuan, Skymaple was also very surprised, but very happy.

"Haha, I didn't think that Ye Yuan you're also here," Skymaple said jubilantly.

It was all thanks to Ye Yuan that he could break through to middle-rank Alchemy King. He naturally felt close to Ye Yuan when he saw him.

Ye Yuan went forward to give a bow and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Grand Elder for breaking through to the middle-rank Alchemy King!"

"Sigh, what's there to congratulate? Isn't this middle-rank Alchemy King of mine all due to you?"

"Haha, this is all Grand Elder's profound fortunes. What has it got to do with this child? Grand Elder broke through to middle-rank Alchemy King. Tranquil Cloud Sect's sky propping pillar is much more stable. This is naturally something worth congratulating," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

Seeing that Ye Yuan did not claim credit at all, Skymaple was even more pleased. Smiling gently, he said, "This is pretty good! After this old man recuperates for a few days, I'll start refining Soul Luring Pills! Xiao Jian, Potian, the two of you also need to cultivate harder in the future and strive to break through to half-step Soul Sea Realm soon! This way, my Tranquil Cloud Sect will have three Soul Sea Realm experts, and our strength will increase tremendously! Let's see if the Heavenly Sky Sect still dares to bully my Tranquil Cloud Sect!"

When Skymaple said those words, the four people were so agitated that they trembled non-stop!

Soul Luring Pill was a medicinal pill to help Sea Transformation Realm experts breakthrough to the Soul Sea Realm. It required the cultivation of middle-rank Alchemy King to be able to refine.

But how many years had it been since a middle-rank Alchemy King alchemist appeared in the Tranquil Cloud Sect?

If the Tranquil Cloud Sect could produce three Soul Sea Realm powerhouse all at once, then they could jump to the middle reaches of the Eight Great Sects.

Other sects would have to reevaluate before thinking about bullying the Tranquil Cloud Sect again!

The might of alchemists laid here!

Back then, the reason Ouyang Tuotian could let the Tranquil Cloud Sect flourish at the top for a time was due to this.

As long as they had ample resources, alchemists could forcibly use medicinal pills to pile up a bunch of powerhouses!

Three Soul Sea Realm powerhouses. Even if they were only three First Level Soul Sea Realm, they would also absolutely be a force that most could not overlook in the Southern Domain.

"En? Ye Yuan, you already broke through to the Seventh Level Spirit Condensation Realm. This . . . Isn't this cultivation speed seriously a little too fast?" Skymaple suddenly noticed Ye Yuan's change and exclaimed in surprise.

Towards Ye Yuan's cultivation speed, he had long heard about it too. These words were more of worrying that Ye Yuan's foundation would be shaky.

Ye Yuan detected Skymaple's concern and said smilingly, "Disciple had some comprehensions when taking part in the sect grand competition a few days back, so I borrowed the momentum to break through."

Skymaple nodded and said, "Then that's good; that's fine! With your talent, staying in my Tranquil Cloud Sect is kind of wasted. But don't you worry, the sect will definitely support you with all our might!"

Skymaple deeply sensed that the Tranquil Cloud Sect really did not have too great of an allure to Ye Yuan. He could only show his support on such a matter.

Ye Yuan hurriedly said, "Where did this come from, Grand Elder? Walking all the way until here, I've received much grace from the sect. No matter where I walk to, the Tranquil Cloud Sect would be my root."

Ye Yuan's words had two layers of meaning. One was to express that he would not forget the Tranquil Cloud Sect. The second was to give Skymaple an immunization jab that he would definitely leave the Tranquil Cloud Sect in the future.

Having witnessed Ye Yuan's talent and means, Skymaple obviously would not be naïve enough to think that a tiny little Tranquil Cloud Sect could hold Ye Yuan.

But this sentence from Ye Yuan was enough!

"Good, good. It's good that you have this heart. You all take your leave first. This seat will rest for a few days before summoning you all again," Skymaple said.

Luo Qingfeng suddenly voiced out at this time, "Martial Uncle, since you've already exited seclusion, Martial Nephew just happens to have something to discuss with you here."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

Skymaple knew that Luo Qingfeng was not someone weak and spineless. Since he wanted to discuss something with him at this time, it was surely something major.

Luo Qingfeng recounted the matter of the Heavenly Sky Sect inviting the seven sects to explore the mystic realm together to Skymaple in detail and also talked about the few people's deductions.

Skymaple shot Ye Yuan a surprised look. He nodded and said, "Ye Yuan's analysis is very logical. This trip, we certainly must go! This mystic realm is bound to be extraordinary. We can't let go of this chance! I think that you guys have already made a decision?"

Luo Qingfeng also gave Ye Yuan a glance and said, "Yes, Martial Uncle. I've decided to let Yuntian lead the team and also select several personal disciples and elite disciples to go there. It's just that Ye Yuan, he . . . wants to tag along too."

Skymaple flung his hand when he heard that and said totally unconcernedly, "If he wants to go, then let him go! How can young people grow without experiencing hardship?"

"But . . ." Luo Qingfeng did not imagine that Skymaple's attitude was actually like this. He could not help saying anxiously.

But Skymaple waved his hands to stop him and said, "Alright. This matter is set like this. I have to enter a retreat."

Seeing Skymaple's insistence, Luo Qingfeng could only drop it.

"Blockhead! Why did Ye Yuan's master leave him unattended? Isn't it to let him experience trials alone? You treat him like treasure and hide him within the sect; how can Ye Yuan possibly agree to it? Furthermore, even if you forbid him from descending the mountain, would he listen obediently and not go down the mountain?"

When Luo Qingfeng walked to the entrance, Skymaple's voice transmission suddenly reached. He came to a realization why Skymaple insisted on letting Ye Yuan go.

Rather than protecting Ye Yuan cautiously, it would be better to let him run himself amuck.

What Ye Yuan's master wanted to see was the ascension of a powerhouse and not a flower in a greenhouse.

This point, Skymaple saw it much clearer than him.

"Thank you for Martial Uncle's guidance," Luo Qingfeng replied and withdrew.The following few days, Ye Yuan remained in seclusion without leaving to make ample preparations for this journey.

This trip was beset with danger. Even if Ye Yuan had the intention to brave it, he also needed to make ample preparations.

Luo Qingfeng picked seven disciples this time. Among them, the most powerful one was personal disciple Mo Yuntian.

Apart from Mo Yuntian and Ye Yuan, Ti Wujiu and Tian Yu were surprisingly among them. Among the other three people, there was an elder's personal disciple as well as two elite disciples.

Tian Yu entered seclusion to breakthrough to the Crystal Formation Realm after the grand competition. He was already a First Level Crystal Formation Realm martial artist. His strength went up a level.

Now, Ye Yuan, Tian Yu, and Tang Yu-er's identities were already elite disciples.

After the grand competition, Cheng Wu and another elite disciple directly forsake the match when they saw Tian Yu and Ye Yuan's fight, while Tang Yu-er defeated her opponent in the final match and got promoted to elite disciple too.

Apart from this, Luo Qingfeng even appointed a Sea Transformation Realm elder to hold the line and lead these people forth.

In the territories of the Heavenly Sky Sect, it could hardly be justified without a Sea Transformation Realm expert holding the line.

But Luo Qingfeng also warned him in advance to not enter the mystic realm.

In the entire team, there was only Ye Yuan this one Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist. But fellow sect members who saw his grand competition obviously would not treat him as an ordinary Spirit Condensation Realm martial artist.

At the very least, the Ye Yuan after breaking through three minor realms successively definitely had a strength above Tian Yu!

The power of that final sword, even the Tian Yu after breaking through probably did not dare to receive it head-on either.

Everything was set. Skymaple exited seclusion to personally see these eight people off.

After Li Zhangyu got an answer, he already returned to his sect first. He did not wish to stay in this Tranquil Cloud Sect for another moment longer.

"Mei Zhen, this journey is very perilous. Your number one priority is to bring them back wholly intact, understood?" Skymaple exhorted.

The elder leading the team was called Mei Zhen, a Third Level Sea Transformation Realm martial artist. He was a prudent person. Luo Qingfeng chose him because he liked this point.

Mei Zhen said respectfully, "Don't worry, Grand Elder, Mei Zhen definitely won't fail this assignment! These few people are my Tranquil Cloud Sect's future. Even if I have to risk this old life, I'll also bring them back safely."

Honestly speaking, Mei Zhen himself did not really have much confidence in retreating unscathed. But at this moment, he could only say so.

Skymaple nodded, and it was considered to have tacitly acknowledged Mei Zhen's promise.

He also knew that there would most likely be some losses on this trip. But what needed to be faced had to be faced eventually.

While this trip was dangerous, it might be Mei Zhen's and the team's lucky chance!

For geniuses who wished to grow up and become a genuine powerhouse, it was impossible to not face death. This point, Skymaple was crystal clear.

Skymaple exhorted Mei Zhen again, and then he went in front of Ye Yuan.

"Ye Yuan, I won't say anything unnecessary. I wish you a safe return! My Tranquil Cloud Sect's rise and fall all lie on you alone!" Skymaple said.

If Skymaple said these words in the past, everyone would surely scoff at it. But now, nobody objected. This was an indisputable truth!

Ye Yuan's talent was already exaggerated to the extent that it was unimaginable. His significance to the sect was naturally different too.

Ye Yuan gave a bow and said respectfully, "Rest assured, Grand Elder, it's just exploring a mystic realm. Ye Yuan definitely will not return empty handed!"
