Supreme Sword God

Chapter 90: Chapter 89: Master and Disciple Dialogue, Heaven Concealing Secret Technique

Back at the Spiritual Martial Department, Ye Chen immediately made himself ’sober’ up.

After advising Ye Chen to rest well, Yuan Polu left.

Ye Chen wasn’t actually very depleted and wasn’t injured much either, so he took out the piece of Earth Essence and started cultivating with his cultivation technique.

A day later.

The Earth Essence in Ye Chen’s hand was noticeably smaller compared to when he first got it.

Stopping the operation of his cultivation technique, he entered the Sword Tomb, greeted Luo Qingyi, refined the tombstone, and then chose the Gengjin Sword Intent to comprehend the power of Sword Intent.

After consuming two tombstones and comprehending the Gengjin Sword Intent, Ye Chen found Master Legs to continue practicing the Heaven-Ascending Step.

Although he could now perform the first layer of the Heaven-Ascending Step, it was only an entrance level, and there was a lot of room for improvement.

Only by mastering the first layer to a perfect state can he proceed to practice the second and third layers.

The Heaven-Ascending Step has five layers in total: Shrinking the Ground to an Inch, Vertical Earth Golden Light, Hundreds of Miles in an Instant, The Ends of the Earth at Arm’s Length, and One Step to the Heavens. There’s still a long way ahead.

After practicing the Heaven-Ascending Step dozens of times, Ye Chen exited the Sword Tomb.

Tian Can’s two legs swayed and floated beside Luo Qingyi.

”Buzz!”

Sword Qi erupted from Luo Qingyi’s body, the sound of sword echoed.

”Don’t always be so murderous, I’m just here to ask you a question. Do you also think this kid has the Body of Ten Thousand Tribulations? I’ve suddenly started to have doubts. The advantage of such a body is fast recovery, but it also has a downside. It’s said that those with the Body of Ten Thousand Tribulations often have dull aptitude, but this kid’s talent is astonishingly good.”

Tian Can’s two legs made a sound, with a hint of puzzlement in the tone.

Luo Qingyi sneered coldly, ”The downside of the Body of Ten Thousand Tribulations has changed on him. His aptitude is not bad, but in some aspects, he’s quite poor.”

”Oh?” Tian Can showed interest, ”Like what?”

”Simple-minded.” Luo Qingyi said begrudgingly.

The two legs burst into laughter, the leg hair fluttering.

......

After leaving the Sword Tomb, Ye Chen greeted Yuan Polu and prepared to go cultivate in the Spirit Tower.

As for Senior Sister Liu Meng’Er, she went down the mountain to find Ye Chen and hasn’t returned yet...

Upon reaching the Spirit Tower.

Ye Chen saw Elder Bai Mei dozing off at the entrance of the Spirit Tower.

”Elder Bai Mei.” Ye Chen called softly.

Elder Bai Mei’s head bobbed fiercely and then he woke up. Seeing Ye Chen, a smile appeared on his face, ”Got more points again?”

Ye Chen smiled and said, ”I got some points from the Freshmen Hunting Meet.”

”Hand over the token.”

Ye Chen handed the token to Elder Bai Mei.

Elder Bai Mei checked it and said, ”Eight hundred and eighty-three points, do you want to sketch a new spiritual pattern or cultivate Spiritual Power?”

”Cultivate Spiritual Power.” Ye Chen said.

”To cultivate Spiritual Power requires three hundred points per day, which you don’t have for three days. Here’s the deal, I’ll deduct six hundred points, and for the remaining two hundred eighty-three points, I’ll sell you a pill.”

Ye Chen: ”...”

So I’m emptied out?

Before Ye Chen could speak, Elder Bai Mei swiped his hand over the token.

”The points are all deducted, you should work harder to earn more points and aim to get intermediate-level permissions soon.” Elder Bai Mei said, tossing the token back to Ye Chen along with a jet-black pill.

Ye Chen looked at the pill in his hand.

It had edges and corners.

No scent of a pill whatsoever.

Can this thing be eaten?

This thing, Elder Bai Mei charged two hundred eighty-three points for?

”Elder Bai Mei, what pill is this?” Ye Chen asked.

”Just eat it, it won’t kill you.”

Ye Chen: ”...”

Soon, Ye Chen entered the Spirit Tower, appearing directly on the fourth floor.

Anyhow, there wasn’t much difference between the fourth and sixth floors, so Ye Chen directly found a spot on the fourth floor, operating the Thousand Spirits Technique to enhance his Spiritual Power while simultaneously using it to forcibly fill the fourth set of spiritual patterns.

This spiritual pattern was still of the first rank, which was not in harmony with the other three sets.

Not long after Ye Chen entered the Spirit Tower.

Elder Bai Mei suddenly looked up, gazing forward.

Ouyang Shang came forth with his hands clasped behind him, walking slowly.

Elder Bai Mei remained seated, too lazy to get up, ”Isn’t it over yet? Didn’t I just ask you to help with handling some matters of the Spirit Tower? What, do you want points now? Go cool off somewhere else!”

Since an issue was suspected with the Spirit Tower last time, Elder Bai Mei sought out Ouyang Shang to resolve it.

Ouyang Shang smiled, ”Teacher, that’s not what I mean...”

”If that’s not what you mean, then why are you here?”

Ouyang Shang quickly changed the subject, ”Teacher, about the pill you just gave Ye Chen, that was a Divine Acupoint Pill?”

Elder Bai Mei glanced at Ouyang Shang, ”Do you have an objection?”

”No.” Ouyang Shang laughed, ”That boy probably thinks he made a big loss by spending over two hundred points on a pill.”

Elder Bai Mei’s Divine Acupoint Pill is valued at roughly five million taels of silver outside.

Of course, even if someone were to offer more than ten million taels, it still wouldn’t be bought, because Elder Bai Mei doesn’t care for that, only he can refine this pill.

”Did you only come to tell me this?” Elder Bai Mei looked at Ouyang Shang.

Ouyang Shang shook his head, ”I came for some advice from my teacher.”

”No time.”

Elder Bai Mei flatly refused, then lowered his head to continue napping.

Not caring for these things, Ouyang Shang said directly, ”The Sect Alliance just sent a message.

The mountain gate of the Celestial Sword Sect was partially destroyed by Elder Yang... After which the people beyond the Elemental Wheel Realm from the Celestial Sword Sect won’t leave the gate for a year.

During this year, no one from our side over the Elemental Wheel Realm should act against the Celestial Sword Sect.”

Instantly, Elder Bai Mei raised his head, shock in his eyes, ”For Yang Tianji to destroy half of the Celestial Sword Sect’s mountain gate is normal.

But, to make the Sect Alliance compromise, it seems he has taken that step, becoming a legend.

As for the demands from the Sect Alliance, just agree. It’s better if everyone sticks to the rules, or else it gets messy and annoying to watch.”

Ouyang Shang continued, ”Teacher, Yu Sheng, that old fox wants his grandson to learn your Alchemy...”

”No way, Yu Sheng that bastard, he even burned my eyebrows back in the day. His grandson wants to learn my Alchemy, why doesn’t he hand over the Heaven Concealing Secret Technique? Wishful thinking.”

”Teacher... this is the Heaven Concealing Secret Technique...” Ouyang Shang held out a jade slip, offering it to Elder Bai Mei.

Elder Bai Mei’s eyebrows twitched, ”What use do I have for this thing? I’m warning you, if you let any of that fox’s brood come to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, don’t think that because you’re the dean now, I won’t deal with you!”

Ouyang Shang lowered his head, ”Yu Sheng’s grandson is already a disciple of the Star Dan Department, under Junior Sister Mei Yue.”

Elder Bai Mei glared at Ouyang Shang without speaking, with a chilling smile.

The next moment, a ruler appeared out of thin air behind Ouyang Shang, striking towards his backside.

”Buzz!”

A gentle glow erupted from Ouyang Shang’s body, within which the sun and moon shone, and stars rose and fell.

The ruler got bounced away by the glow and returned to Elder Bai Mei’s hand.

Elder Bai Mei stared at Ouyang Shang for a long time, ”You’ve come a long way, you’re at the sixth level of the Star Technique, no wonder you planned against me!”

Ouyang Shang said, ”Teacher, please calm down...”

Elder Bai Mei waved his hand dismissively, ”Think I don’t know? You’ve already learned Yu Sheng’s Heaven Concealing Technique! As for teaching Alchemy, I’ll consider it, now leave.”

Ouyang Shang nodded, ”Then Teacher, I’ll take my leave.”

As Ouyang Shang left, he sighed and shook his head while walking.

Already back to napping, Elder Bai Mei felt it wasn’t worth it to care.

If I hadn’t agreed, would Yu Sheng dare to send over that little fox?

No.

That’s a fat fox.
