Supreme Sword God

Chapter 1000: Chapter 999: Self-Deduction, Rising Source Secret Technique

Lin Qu’s hand seals are performed in conjunction with his Pupil Technique Secret Method.

Each change in the hand seals is extremely complex.

Ye Chen carefully observed, though he couldn’t fully comprehend, he understood the general idea.

No need to perfectly emulate, just copy it roughly.

In this matter of Divine Appraisal, no one guides you, so you have to figure it out yourself!

Moments later.

Lin Qu’s hand seals concluded.

His face showed another hint of surprise.

The divine stones Ye Chen just selected indeed contained hidden treasures!

He couldn’t imagine how Ye Chen, with his clumsy hand seal secret method, could succeed...

”Hmph, even if you know a little, the way of a Divine Appraiser is vast and profound; you’re not even a beginner!” Lin Qu sneered, ”You really think I don’t know? You want to steal my secret technique—ignorant! What can you achieve even if you see it?!

Every Divine Appraiser’s secret technique is created after countless refining, with thousands of transformations and variations. Without direct guidance from the creator, to steal and learn is like a fool’s dream—never possible!”

Ye Chen: ”You overthought, I was just looking around, and I’m quite disappointed. No wonder you’re not a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser; your secret hand seals look so crude!”

Always showing respect to the Celestial Cauldron Emperor.

But this old man is taking it too far.

Must respond!

Lin Qu’s face was ashen.

Ye Chen: ”You can stay here yourself, I’m going back to my room to rest.”

With that, Ye Chen turned around and went back to his room.

Lin Qu couldn’t leave; the Celestial Cauldron Emperor set up a Qi and Blood Array around Ye Chen’s residence, leaving him standing in the courtyard glaring angrily.

The more he thought, the angrier he got.

The angrier, the wider his eyes.

Returning to the room, Ye Chen activated the restriction of the cultivation chamber, then plunged into the Sword Tomb and sought out Master Legs to ponder together!

Before, Master Legs could use the most primitive method to reveal divine stones, proving he had some skill in this area.

For better effect.

Ye Chen directly threw a piece of Enlightenment Tea leaf into his mouth and brought a large wooden tub to soak Master Legs’ two legs in tea water made from another Enlightenment Tea leaf!

Truly luxurious!

A day passed.

Ye Chen and Master Legs discovered many things, then left the Sword Tomb immediately to verify the methods deduced using that batch of divine stones.

Lin Qu stood in the courtyard for a whole day, and when Ye Chen stretched after coming out, he was filled with anger and said, ”Any Divine Appraiser must spend a long time researching to gain rewards. You only studied less than an hour yesterday before going back to rest. With this mindset, you’ll never achieve anything as a Divine Appraiser!

My decision was correct.

My Divine Appraisal secret methods, no matter what, can’t be passed to you!”

Ye Chen rolled his eyes without bothering to reply, approached the pile of yet-to-be-appraised divine stones, activated Martial Arts Celestial Eye, and began performing hand seals one by one.

These hand seals contained shadows of Miss Jiu’s secret methods and hints of Lin Qu’s secret methods. But mostly, they were the results of a day of discussion between Ye Chen and Master Legs!

Lin Qu watched this scene in astonishment.

After a day of resting, Ye Chen seemed to have improved greatly, showing some competence already!

”You... you have met Zhou Family members?!” Lin Qu couldn’t hold back asking.

Ye Chen: ”Guess?”

Lin Qu: ”...”

The Zhou Family members, evidently referring to Miss Jiu.

Lin Qu’s surprise showed that the Zhou Family, where Miss Jiu hailed from, held high status in regards to Divine Appraisal.

Quite possibly... among the few Celestial-tier Divine Appraisers currently in the Celestial Burial Sea, one belongs to the Zhou Family!

No wonder Miss Jiu’s methods are extraordinary.

Collecting his thoughts, Ye Chen continued performing hand seals, using Martial Arts Celestial Eye to investigate the divine stones.

In an instant.

Seven days passed.

Ye Chen finally appraised all the divine stones in the courtyard.

Within these few short days, Lin Qu’s mind fluctuated intensely.

He realized that Ye Chen didn’t possess a complete inheritance system of a Divine Appraiser; he was creating his own Divine Appraisal secret methods through borrowing and experimentation!

The key is...

Success!

Ye Chen’s skills now reached the level of an Earth-tier Divine Appraiser!

Unbelievable...

Lin Qu understood all too well the difficulty of creating Divine Appraisal secret methods!

Even with the foundation of Martial Arts Celestial Eye, Ye Chen transformed from a young person clueless about Divine Appraisers into an Earth-tier Divine Appraiser in only seven days... this talent is terrifying to the extreme!

Previously, Lin Qu said Ye Chen lacked dedication and effort, even with talent it was useless.

But...

His opinion has changed now.

With such extraordinary talent, nothing else matters!

Lin Qu tried hard to maintain a straight face, not showing too much shock, and said blandly, ”These days, though you haven’t been exceedingly diligent, I’ve seen your interest in the way of Divine Appraisal.

Very well, I’ll teach you a technique or two.”

Ye Chen looked at Lin Qu and said, ”I, Ye Chen, will never become an apprentice.”

Whether Lin Qu is formidable or not, it doesn’t matter.

Even experimenting on his own, he’s already an Earth-tier Divine Appraiser!

Moreover, his method is more suitable for himself.

These days, he indulged in a piece of Enlightenment Tea leaf as a snack each day and had to supply Master Legs with one Enlightenment Tea leaf daily for soaking feet, but it seems worthwhile.

Of course, the one downside is that Master Legs developed a bad habit.

He wants to soak feet in Enlightenment Tea leaves every day now!

Although Miss Qing doesn’t say anything, Ye Chen still dutifully gave her a few pieces of Enlightenment Tea leaf.

Little Phoenix chirping incessantly, Ye Chen also gave a few pieces.

Long Chen... this top-tier expert, Ye Chen offered a few pieces of Enlightenment Tea leaf willingly.

Coming and going.

The Enlightenment Tea Tree now runs at the sight of Ye Chen, fearing to be stripped bare!

Lin Qu: ”Ye Chen, even if you don’t plan to become an apprentice, with your talent, you’ll still take many detours in the future, wasting so much time considering your foundational lack.”

Ye Chen: ”Don’t worry about it. I’m young with plenty of time. I’m only in my early twenties and already an Earth-tier Divine Appraiser. Even if I take many detours, I’m not afraid. When I’m older, I’ll surely be a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser.”

Lin Qu felt tightness in his chest.

It’s like being stabbed with a knife!

In early twenties... older...

”Cough!”

At that moment.

A massive coughing sound rang out.

No guessing needed, the Celestial Cauldron Emperor was coming.

Ye Chen cupped his hands facing the direction of the sound, saying, ”Greetings, Great Emperor.”

The Celestial Cauldron Emperor came over smiling, saying, ”You young man didn’t disappoint me, very good.”

Then, the Celestial Cauldron Emperor looked at Lin Qu, ”Seventh Granduncle, am I wrong? Here’s a good seedling. It won’t damage the reputation of your Rising Source Secret Technique.

Besides, it’s also for Seventh Granduncle’s own good.

After all, you, being elderly, shall one day pass away. If all your skills aren’t passed on, wouldn’t it be a pity?”

”You curse me to die?” Lin Qu glared at the Celestial Cauldron Emperor, wishing he could act, if only he could win the fight.

The Celestial Cauldron Emperor awkwardly laughed, ”Seventh Granduncle misunderstands.”

At the same time.

A booming voice sounded next to Ye Chen’s ear.

”You brat, stop sulking. Although my Seventh Granduncle doesn’t have the title of a Celestial-tier Divine Appraiser, his Rising Source Secret Technique is more alluring than any Celestial-tier’s legacy.

It can cultivate Pupil Technique Divine Techniques, and also allow those divine techniques to continuously advance!

Your Martial Arts Celestial Eye is very strong, yet amidst the Emperor Realm, it is only so-so, but if you master the Rising Source Secret Technique, Martial Arts Celestial Eye will advance into Martial Arts Divine Eye, making even the Great Emperor envious and coveting!”

Ye Chen was uncomfortable from the Celestial Cauldron Emperor’s transmitted sound.

But now, his emotions surged with excitement!

Lin Qu’s old man’s Rising Source Secret Technique can make Martial Arts Celestial Eye advance!

Learn!

Must learn well!
