章節 20: Emerald Martial Palace

編輯: Hitesh_

Picking up the Pure Yuan Art manual, Ye Chen turned to the first page.

"Pure Yuan Art. The first Qi Coil strengthens the Qi; Second Qi Coil cleanses the body and mind; Third Qi Coil strengthens the body; Fourth Qi Coil accumulates and reinforces Qi in the heart; Fifth Qi Coil combines the six senses into one, attaining ekatra, the state of unity."

This is it!

With just a single glance, Ye Chen made his decision. If he reached Pure Yuan's Fifth Qi Coil, it would combine the six senses into a system of unity. The state of unity meant the combination of one's spirit, Qi, mind, hands, eyes, and body attaining harmony in unity.

While its attack and defense might not be as good as the others, its ability to refine Qi was the best in its class. In addition, within the Mortal Realm Arts, there were very few arts that could actually manage to reach ekatra, the state of unity.

Out of nowhere, Ye Chen realized there was another inner disciple standing right next to him, reading a manual. The inner disciple sensed Ye Chen's glance and smiled politely. As he saw the manual in Ye Chen's hand, he asked in surprise, "Pure Yuan Art?"

Ye Chen nodded, "Yes."

That inner disciple hesitated then said, "Pure Yuan Art is definitely a rare art. However, over the past century, not one person in the Sky Cloud Martial School has managed to reach the fifth coil, in fact, there were not many people who managed to reach even the fourth coil. I suggest you to choose another one, otherwise it will simply be a waste of your time."

Oh? Even more reason for me to train it! Ye Chen was quite happy to hear that no one else would be training in the same martial art as him. The inner disciple said that no one had truly mastered it in the last century, that was because once Mortal Realm disciples reached the Condensing Reality Stage, they would gain access to Top Rank Mortal Realm Arts and would most likely give up their original art. Because even the High Rank Mortal Realm Art at its highest stage would still not be able to compete with Top Rank Mortal Realm art. This was the gap that separated the stages.

"My time is up." Excusing himself, Ye Chen took the two manuals that he chose and walked downstairs.

The inner disciple shook his head. He truly was being nice to give Ye Chen advice. However, it was not really his business if Ye Chen chose not to listen, they would most likely never see each other ever again.

...

On his bed, Ye Chen sat with his legs crossed and closed his eyes, his hands repeating the hand seals described in the manual, up and down, near his Dantian. Along with his breath, swirls of Qi from heaven and earth accumulated near Ye Chen, forming a small tornado that was rapidly being absorbed into his body, cycling through his meridians continuously.

If anyone with exceptionally perceptive eyes looked at Ye Chen right now, they would see that inside his Dantian there was another little Qi tornado forming inside his main Qi tornado, spinning slowly but firmly.

"Whooo..." Ye Chen gradually released his breath and as he opened his eyes, a subtle light quickly flashed through them.

I reached the First Qi Coil within three hours. I think I might have underestimated my potential. Ye Chen was quite satisfied with his results.

However, it was only the beginning. The Pure Yuan Art had five Qi Coils in total, and each Qi Coil was harder than the last one. It would take at least a couple of days to reach the second coil, and twice as long for the third coil, whereas three times as long for the fourth coil. However, for the fifth coil, it would not be as easy as simply doubling the time of cultivation. It required an enlightenment to reach the fifth Qi Coil, which depended on the disciple's potential, talent, and comprehension.

Even though Ye Chen already had a basic idea of his power, he was still a bit surprised when he reached the second Qi Coil on the third day.

Right now, the second Qi tornado inside his body was already about one-tenth of the size of the Qi tornado from his Cloud Qi Cultivation of his Sky Fall Art, but it was purer and stronger and was like a clear crystal without any flaws.

On the sixth day, the meridians inside Ye Chen's body had been cleared and unblocked, the Qi of Pure Yuan Art circulating repeatedly and continuously without any restrain, slowly tempering his body and boosting his physical fitness. It also extracted an extremely pure Yuan Qi from his bones and blood and blended all together which made it spin even stronger and faster.

On the seventh day, Ye Chen achieved the third Qi Coil of the Pure Yuan Art.

The second Qi tornado was already one-fifth the size of the first Qi tornado and, not only was it unbelievably pure, but its spinning speed was also ridiculously fast; it was almost like a powerful engine, pumping huge amounts of Yuan Qi and Qi from the first tornado.

Ye Chen thought to himself, The Qi of the Pure Yuan Art is at least two times purer than the Cloud Qi from the Sky Fall Art. Well I guess it's time to refine my Cloud Qi, otherwise it will hamper my future cultivation by having two different types of Qi inside my body, and make it extremely hard to reach the Fourth Qi Coil, not to mention attaining ekatra in the Fifth Qi Coil.

Making up his mind, Ye Chen engaged the Pure Yuan Art, forcibly blending the Qi from his Cloud Qi Spell into the Pure Yuan Qi revolution.

The Cloud Qi sensed the foreign attack and tried to fight back by creating a blockage with the large amounts of Cloud Qi.

However, the Pure Yuan Qi was much purer. It was like a sharp knife, slicing one layer after another while continuously refining each layer of Qi to strengthen itself. It was like a snowball, the longer it attacked, the stronger and larger it got.

Sensing the powerful Qi of the Pure Yuan Art, Ye Chen could not help but think, Quality truly is much more important than quantity. The quantity of Cloud Qi was five times more than that of the Pure Yuan Qi, but the Cloud Qi still could not resist the overbearing Pure Yuan Qi.

Tick tock, time flew by.

When the Cloud Qi tornado was only one-fifth of its original size, the Qi tornado suddenly collapsed. Qi scattered about in a chaotic manner, the chaotic cloud of Qi no longer had any resistance to the Pure Yuan Qi.

Pop!

Once the Cloud Qi from Sky Fall Art had been completely refined into Pure Yuan Qi, Ye Chen's Dantian bloated up causing Ye Chen to frown as he felt it strain before breaking through to the Late Mortal Realm Stage 6.

Pleasantly letting go of a huge breath, Ye Chen stretched a little, causing all the bones in his body to crack loudly like a firecracker.

It only took me ten days of hard word to reach the Late Mortal Realm Stage 6, this Pure Yuan Art truly is a High Rank Mortal Realm Art!

Training arts were extremely important to disciples. In a situation where people had the same potential, the disciple who trained in a high rank martial art would always be stronger than the one who trained in a low rank martial art, this was an undisputable fact. Ye Chen reached the third Qi Coil of Pure Yuan Art in ten days, but had already accumulated a lot of high quality Qi, and now that he had managed to refine all his Cloud Qi, his power had reached a new level.

As Ye Chen was celebrating his achievements, a group of guests arrived at the bottom of mountain of the Sky Cloud Martial School. They were two men and two women.

Their leader was an old man, about sixty years old, his wrinkled face completely expressionless. He wore a long green robe with an emerald jade mark tied around his waist.

Next to the elder, there were three young teenagers. One of them was a young man about seventeen years old, his facial features were as white and stiff as jade, which almost looked like they had been carved onto his face, leaving a cold impression. On his left side, there was a pretty teenage girl who was about fifteen years old, wearing a green dress with a long sword tied around her waist. On her right, there was another teenager who seemed to be a bit older than her. She was an extremely beautiful young woman, and had a prideful lonely aura. Looking at her, people would always automatically connect her with a lonely orchid blooming at night or a lone peony, the king of flowers.

The teenage girl in the green dress said to the latter, "Sister Xueyan, no matter what you do, I will respect your decision."

"Ye Xuan, I am not a picky person. My mother and Ye Chen's mother were both outer court masters of the Rudra School and are like sisters to each other. She used to babysit me and treat me so nicely... But I don't want other people deciding my marriage, and I don't want my future husband to live the rest of his life in my shadow." The beautiful young woman's voice was perfection, only adding to her beauty and aura, making it even more attractive.

Ye Xuan nodded and kept quiet.

Then, the indifferent elder said, "Don't worry. Our Emerald Martial Palace, the top martial institution in the Windy Paths Nation, would never push you to do anything you don't want to do. With your talent and potential, you would definitely become an inner court master in the future, so there is no need to waste time on this kind of business."


章節 21: Childe Hanshan

編輯: Hitesh_

"Identify yourselves!"

At the bottom of the mountain, four disciples on guard duty stopped the group.

The cold-looking teenager stepped forward and said loudly, "We are from the Emerald Valley. Along with us is our senior master Mu Fengyuan! Let us through at once!"

"Emerald Valley's senior master!" The guards were astonished because in the Windy Paths Nation, the disciples of the Emerald Martial Palace were always considered to be outstanding, not to mention how astonishing their senior masters were. They were always treated with the utmost respect, even the emperor himself would pay them respect.

"Sir! Please enter through here." The leading guarding disciple smiled as he eyed the people next to him, "Go notify the warden elder immediately!"

The news of the venerable visitors quickly spread throughout the whole Sky Cloud Martial School.

Inside the welcoming lobby of Sky Cloud Martial School.

Besides a couple of senior masters sitting on the left hand side, there was a middle-aged man sitting in the main seat who seemed about forty years old. With his huge body and tiger claw like hands on the armrests, he emanated a strong pressuring aura. He was the number one disciple of the Sky Cloud Martial School, Patriarch Luo Xinglie!

Normally, if it was just a normal senior master coming, Luo Xinglie would not usually show up, leaving the reception to the headmaster or even the vice headmaster. But this time, their guest were not so simple. While Mu Fengyuan was not the headmaster, he was one of the top ten senior masters in the Emerald Martial Palace, he had reached the Late Clasping Yuan Stage and was not too far behind Luo Xinglie in power. However, even if the top three senior masters of the Emerald Martial Palace were as strong as him, it would be hard for any one of them to suppress him. Since Luo Xinglie did not want his guests to appear to be stronger than his school, he had personally appeared to welcome the guests as he was the only one overtly stronger than his guests.

On the right hand side, Mu Fengyuan and the three young teenagers were seated in order.

"Haha, master Mu, what has brought you here today? Please excuse our poor reception as we were not expecting guests." Luo Xinglie laughed brightly as his eyes focused on Mu Fengyuan.

Mu Fengyuan smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and replied, "I hope Patriarch Luo does not mind us showing up here uninvited."

The headmaster of Sky Cloud Martial School, who was an elder with a slightly obese body responded, "Nonsense, when the patriarch heard that you had arrived, he came out personally to welcome you."

Luo Xinglie nodded, changing his tone, "May we know what is master Mu's reason for this visit? Surely, you are not just visiting us?"

"Paying a visit is a must, but since I am here, I would like to handle my disciple's personal issues."

"Your disciple's personal issues? What is the issue?" Luo Xinglie was a bit surprised.

Mu Fengyuan cleared his throat, asked, "I wonder if there's a outer disciple that goes by the name Ye Chen in the Sky Cloud Martial School? This is his sister Ye Xuan, and the other one was also related with him."

Hearing Mu Fengyuan's introduction, Luo Xinglie and the senior masters all looked at Ye Xuan and the beautiful young woman besides her, they could not help but praise them in their hearts.

Not only their beauty, but their cultivation was extremely high.

Ye Xuan seemed to be not even fifteen, but she had already reached the Early Condensing Reality Stage and by looking at her Qi which was still not completely pure yet, they could tell she had just reached this stage not too long ago. Regarding that level of talent and potential, Sky Cloud Martial School did not have too many geniuses, not to mention she was a girl.

The other beautiful young woman was even more powerful! She was only a little bit older than Ye Xuan but had already reached the peak of Mid Condensing Reality Stage. In a couple of months, she would definitely reach the Late Stage. With her outstanding talent, she could definitely be in the top three ranking in Sky Cloud Martial School, or perhaps even the top ranked disciple.

Luo Xinglie sighed in his heart. There are so many martial geniuses in Emerald Martial Palace, any one of them would be powerful enough to compete with our top disciples. No wonder they have retained their spot as the best martial institution in the Windy Paths Nation, even the Northern Snow Academy can't compete against them.

"Young lady, what is your name?" The headmaster could not help but ask curiously.

The young woman seemed relaxed, "Greetings, headmaster. I am Ji Xueyan."

"Ji Xueyan, are you a member of the Ji family?"

"Yes."

Luo Xinglie laughed, "The heavens have blessed the Ji family! With a daughter like you, their status in the top eight family is even more stable, congrats!"

"Fortune!" The other senior masters nodded and agreed.

"Someone, go find Ye Chen and bring him here." Luo Xinglie did not know who Ye Chen was at all, but as the patriarch of the institution, no one would dare to not obey his words.

With Mu Fengyuan's permission, the cold-looking teenager who had not said a word stood up and said, "Patriarch Luo and senior masters, I, Liu Wuxiang, have a presumptuous request. I hope to compete with Childe Hanshan before Sister Ji finishes with her business."

Luo Xinglei froze a little, "You mean my son Luo Hanshan?"

Mu Fengyuan smiled, "Liu Wuxiang is one of the four core disciples at our martial institution, competing with Childe Hanshan would only be a friendly spar. How about it?"

"Naturally. It's just that my son is having issues with his body, he probably won't be able to handle this." Luo Xinglie seemed troubled, and if you looked closely, you could see a deep sadness flickering in his eyes.

Liu Wuxiang was a little bit disappointed. He opened his mouth in preparation to say something, but was stopped by Mu Fengyuan.

"Father!" Suddenly, a teenager in blue appeared outside the lobby.

Luo Xinglie looked at that teenager in surprise, "Hanshan, how come you are here?"

The teenager in blue looked at Liu Wuxiang, said, "Father, I will take on the challenge, I would like to see 'Palm Termination' Liu Wuxiang's true power."

"But..."

"Don't worry, I know my limit." The young man in blue was indeed Childe Hanshan - Luo Hanshan, son of Luo Xinglie, ranked two among the core disciples, right after the 'Gentle Fragrance Sword' Zhu Mei.

Liu Wuxiang stood up, "Two years ago, the four most powerful people among the younger generation in Windy Paths Nation were revered as the 'Top Four Childes', it included the top disciples Emerald Childe, Snow Childe from the Northern Snow Academy, Childe Duanmu from the Mu Family, one of the top eight ranking families, and Childe Hanshan from Sky Cloud Martial School. When this disciple and the North Snow Childe underwent closed door training for the Clasping Yuan Stage, you lost your title as the number one disciple. I found it quite unbelievable."

Luo Hanshan replied humbly, "Zhu Mei beat me fair and square, I think you all know about her ability."

"'Gentle Fragrance Sword' Zhumei, is definitely strong. But frankly, she was still far behind you. How much have you changed?"

Luo Hanshan was tired of speaking on the subject, and said, "Cut the crap, how would you like to compete?" The opponent was one of the four core disciples in Emerald Martial Palace, who was called the "Palm Terminator" among the young generation in Windy Paths Nation. He had extremely powerful Qi and palm art, which was only below the Emerald Childe, according to the rumors. Luo Hanshan would not dare to underestimate him.

"Nothing much. Just three palm attacks. It actually is not ideal for us to truly fight yet."

"As you wish. Let's just do it right here."

Luo Xinglie, Mu Fengyuan and the rest of the senior masters who were present were all staring at the two young men. The battle between the top disciples of the young generation did not happen often. Especially for Luo Xinglie, his face was full of worry but deep down, he was also a bit excited.

Ji Xueyan and Ye Xuan's eyes sparkled with excitement. Being able to witness Brother disciple Liu Wuxiang battling Childe Hanshan, this trip was definitely worth it.

"Please!" Luo Hanshan walked few steps forward with one of his hand behind his back, and the other hanging in the air.

Liu Wuxiang walked with big steps, "I hope you would do your best, otherwise you would not be able to beat me."

"Of course!"

* Childe is defined as a youth of noble birth or the so called young master in other xianxia. In this xianxia, it is used as a title, and will be continuing to be using Childe instead of young master
