Chapter 145: In an Instant, Seven Days, the Disciples’ Breakthrough
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“I have some good news to tell you.”
Xinyu Xi handed over the Spirit Liquid, “In the mid of next month, the Divine Wind Sword Sect will hold the Sword Child Enfiefment Ceremony, inviting all the high-ranked sects and Star-Level Forces in the Southern River Basin to attend, and the Misty Sect is also on the invitation list.”
Xiao Fangu took the cup of Spirit Liquid, took a sip, and his eyes immediately became focused, “This is indeed good news!”
Xinyu Xi nodded, “At that time, Yunjie Huo will definitely be there. Junior brother will be able to contend with him at the banquet and determine who is superior, but I don’t know what you think your chances of winning are?”
“I’m no longer who I was before. By the mid of next month, I will definitely be able to make a breakthrough to the ninth layer of Qi Refinement, and I can also achieve perfection in the second layer of the Green Cloud Sword Technique. There’s no way he can defeat me.”
Xiao Fangu, with his arms folded, revealed a confident smile.
Xinyu Xi looked at Xiao Fangu’s profile, with a smile hanging on her lips, as if looking at her true destined one.
Ancient Town of Quicksand.
Ever since the Demon-locking Tower was rebuilt, Baixue Ding, as the tower master, has been standing on top of the tower, guarding this place.
Yunjie Huo arrived at the bank of the Flowing Water River.
Gazing at the river that winded like a starry river, Yunjie Huo took a deep breath, concentrated his spiritual power on the Cold Light Sword, and pulled it out forcefully.
Clang!
The blade was pulled out a foot in an instant.
The dazzling light of the sword almost burst his eyesight, releasing a fierce wave of air that even made the nearby water surface dent.
As Yunjie Huo continued to exert force, he found the Cold Light Sword getting heavier. Just when it was half a foot away from being fully drawn, he suddenly felt utterly exhausted and was forced to let go.
“Still not enough…”
Yunjie Huo, panting heavily, looked at the sparkling water surface and sat cross-legged on the pebbles to continue his arduous cultivation.
At the summit of Misty Peak.
Boom!
Qiao Jiaxi leaped up and smashed the thousand-pound boulder that was pressing on him into smithereens, then landed steadily on the ground with his aura significantly strengthened.
“Finally reached the second layer of Body Refinement!”
He was very excited.
After many days of hard training, he finally made a breakthrough. Although there was still a long way to go before reaching the fourth layer of Body Refinement, he could see hope.
“You’ve made a breakthrough? Well done!” Ye Feng said while eating a roast goose leg, patting Qiao Jiaxi on the shoulder.
“Sect Leader, I will definitely continue to work hard.” Qiao Jiaxi clenched his fist and, following the Ancient God Body Refining Technique: Body Refining Chapter, started to practice the second movement.
The second movement was a one-finger handstand!
Qiao Jiaxi did a handstand on a large rock, supporting his entire weight with just one index finger, his legs stretched straight up to the sky, as stable as a pine tree.
“What a strange movement.”
The disciples sat nearby, eating their meals while watching Qiao Jiaxi.
“Junior brother, are you hungry? Have something to eat?” Jia Yulan teased with a chicken leg, waving it in front of Qiao Jiaxi’s nose.
“I won’t eat; I have to cultivate!” Qiao Jiaxi gulped down saliva forcibly.
Although he really wanted to eat, the second movement of the Ancient God Body Refining Technique: Body Refining Chapter had peculiar requirements. He couldn’t train within one hour before or after a meal, and each training session had to last an hour.
To break through to the third layer of Body Refinement as quickly as possible, Qiao Jiaxi chose to eat only one meal a day, and at other times, he only drank Spirit Spring Water, easier to maintain than Yan Ruyu.
Ye Feng looked at the disciples gathered around Qiao Jiaxi, eating, and said with a speechless expression, “You are clearly distracting Jiaxi from his cultivation.”
In Ye Feng’s view, this scene was just like the time during military training when students stood in the scorching sun, yet a group of seniors sat opposite them eating watermelons, even asking if they wanted some.
The most annoying part was the smacking of their lips!
Hearing this, the disciples quickly retreated five steps and continued to eat.
“We’ll continue to study now.” Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Yu were the first to finish eating. After washing Li Jiaojiao’s bowl, they sat down under the pavilion to read the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art.
The two siblings had two tasks.
First, break through to the sixth layer of Qi Refinement.
Second, learn the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art and achieve a basic grasp to be considered successful.
Apart from Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Yu, the other disciples were also busy cultivating.
Time ticked by.
In a blink of an eye, seven days had passed.
Ye Feng stood in the sky, looking at the several new three-story wooden buildings on the peak, and then at the neatly trimmed flower beds, nodding silently.
“Ding, Outer Sect Disciple Shi Lei has completed the sect construction task and can be promoted to Inner Sect Disciple.”
“Ding, registered disciple Jia Yulan has completed the task of planting 100 mature spiritual medicines and can be promoted to an outer sect disciple.”
“Ding, registered disciples Xia He and Qiu Ju have completed the task of assisting in the planting of spiritual medicines and taking care of spiritual beasts and can be promoted to outer sect disciples.”
“Ding, registered disciple Yan Ruyu has completed the task of cultivating spiritual medicines and treating injured disciples and can be promoted to an outer sect disciple.”
“Ding, registered disciples Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Yu have completed their study of the ‘Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art’ and their cultivation level has broken through to the sixth level of Qi Refinement, allowing them to be promoted to outer sect disciples.”
In these seven days, seven disciples had successively passed the assessments and received the disciple identity tokens personally issued by Ye Feng.
From then on, only Huo Yunjie, Li Jiaojiao, and Qiao Jiaxi remained.
In the kitchen.
Li Jiaojiao looked at the many ingredients on the cutting board and held her face in her hands, at a complete loss: “Ah! How exactly can one cook a spirit dish that helps cultivators improve their cultivation level?”
After a long time, Li Jiaojiao still had no idea.
Qiao Jiaxi was still doing a handstand, supporting his entire body with just one finger, and his legs were even tied with rocks weighing five hundred jin.
“Ha!”
Suddenly, Qiao Jiaxi felt his bloodline compressed to a new limit and burst out forcefully, shattering the rocks tied to his legs in an instant and propelling himself about ten meters away with a push from his index finger.
“I’ve finally broken through the third layer of body refinement!”
His voice spread, and other disciples cast congratulatory glances his way.
Qiao Jiaxi took a bath with spirit spring water, ate his fill, and began practicing the third movement of the ‘Ancient God Body Refining Technique: Body Refining Chapter’.”
Carrying a giant rock weighing a thousand jin on his back, he started to hop like a frog around the peak.
“What is Junior Brother Qiao doing now?”
“The Sect Leader said that if Junior Brother Qiao wants to break through to the fourth layer of body refinement, he has to hop with a giant rock on his back three thousand times, it’s terrifying!”
“Is this something humans can do?”
“Junior Brother Qiao has the bloodline of an ancient giant god; strictly speaking, he isn’t… well, at least he’s still human for now, but it’s hard to say for the future.”
The disciples stared at the diligently cultivating Qiao Jiaxi, dumbfounded.
Ye Feng saw this and mused to himself whether Qiao Jiaxi’s hard work was good or bad.
“The Iron Claw Dragon Eagle and Fox Da Hong have just broken through to the high-rank demon soldier level yesterday. Jiaxi is still training hard, Jiaojiao is still lingering in the kitchen, and Yun Jie’s progress is stuck at 90%, and it has been three days already, with no specific details…”
Ye Feng looked into the distance, slightly worried.
In the Ancient Town of Quicksand.
Huo Yunjie stood by the bank of Flowing Water River, his feet on pebbles, not far behind him stood Ding Baixue, looking worried.
“It’s about time…”
Huo Yunjie opened his eyes, bent slightly, held the scabbard in his left hand, and grasped the hilt of the sword with his right hand upside down, beginning to gather the momentum in his body, gradually pouring it into the Cold Light Sword, making it as heavy as ten thousand jin.
He didn’t rush to draw the sword but kept on accumulating power.
Half an hour later.
“Now!”
Huo Yunjie suddenly drew the sword.
Cling!
The piercing sound of the sword’s cry spread across several miles around, attracting many fishermen who followed the sound only to witness the Cold Light Sword being drawn at an extremely fast speed, its whole body emitting a blinding white light, even brighter than the sun in the sky.
The fierce aura burst forth suddenly!
As Huo Yunjie slashed towards the river’s surface, a crescent-shaped sword qi that stretched for more than ten meters split the air, creating a hundred-meter-long, bottom-visible trench in the water where it passed.
Splash!
The waves churned and the sound was deafening.
Ding Baixue and the others all opened their mouths in shock, their eyes filled with astonishment and fear.
“I did it!”
Huo Yunjie was overjoyed, but before he could sheath his sword, he found himself weak all over and stumbling, about to fall.
“Be careful!” Ding Baixue leaped forward to steady Huo Yunjie.
At Misty Peak.
“Ding, outer sect disciple Huo Yunjie has successfully mastered the Sword Drawing Technique (Beginner) and can be promoted to an inner sect disciple.”
Ye Feng heard the prompt and was surprised, his eyes widening.
At the same time, a stream of wonderful information emerged in his mind, allowing Ye Feng to instantly master the Sword Drawing Technique and directly reach Perfection.
“Yun Jie, you’re incredible!”
Having assimilated this information, Ye Feng’s smile gradually became more triumphant.
