Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the middle of the night, in one of the 36 residences of the Lingyun Sect.
This was the residence that Jiang Yiming had chosen for himself.
The 36 residences formed a Mystic Heaven Spirit Gathering Array.
As the sect leader, Jiang Yiming’s residence was right at the center of this array.
“Since such a thing happened, I’m afraid we’ll have to face the Huoyun Sect very soon,” Jiang Yiming sat cross-legged and muttered, “Right now, I’m only at the early-stage of the Core Formation Realm. If I face a Nascent Soul Realm expert, the probability of me losing will be higher than me winning. I still have to raise my cultivation as soon as possible!”
Thinking of this, Jiang Yiming directly extracted the staying-online cultivation from the system.
“System, raise my cultivation!”
…
The next day, early morning.
“Hu!” Jiang Yiming let out a breath of turbid air and slowly opened his eyes.
He clenched his fists and a smile couldn’t help but appear on his face when he felt the vigorous spiritual energy in his body.
“I’ve reached the late-stage of the Core Formation Realm! In just one night, I’ve used up thirty years of my staying-online cultivation and have finally made a breakthrough. With my current strength, it shouldn’t be a problem if I want to go against Nascent Soul Realm experts.”
Jiang Yiming sighed again and said helplessly, “It’s a pity that I didn’t break through to reach perfection in the Core Formation Realm in one go. Forget it, this matter can’t be rushed. I’d better sign in first. System, sign in.”
[Ding — signed in successfully!]
[Notification]: Received the Broken Moon Sword Technique for signing in.
[Notification]: Due to the Celestial King’s Privilege, the Broken Moon Sword Technique has been upgraded to the Flying Cloud Broken Moon Technique!
When the system’s notifications ended, a sword technique book appeared in his backpack.
Jiang Yiming immediately opened the system’s introduction on the technique.
After reading the system’s introduction, even with all Jiang Yiming had seen, he could not help but feel a little shocked.
The Flying Cloud Broken Moon Technique could be said to be one of the most powerful sword techniques in the world.
The flying cloud was gentle and flawless.
This sword technique evolved from the movement of the clouds. Its moves were unpredictable and emphasized one’s comprehension ability!
If one could comprehend the essence of this sword technique, one would be like the clouds, unpredictable and impossible to guard against!
“Flying Cloud Broken Moon Technique, Ye Yunfan,” Thinking of this, Jiang Yiming couldn’t help but smile.
Ye Yunfan happened to be a sword user, so he might as well give him this technique to try.
While Jiang Yiming was still pondering, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
“Master, I have come to pay my respects to you.”
“Come in.”
As soon as he said that, Ye Yunfan entered the house in a flash.
His face was ruddy, his posture was vigorous, and his movements were swift.
It was completely impossible to tell that he was a seriously injured person just yesterday.
“Master, I have come to pay my respects to you,” Ye Yunfan cupped his hands and bowed to his Master in the manner a disciple should.
“You’re quite diligent. To think you came to pay your respects so early in the morning,” Jiang Yiming gestured with his palm for Ye Yunfan to rise and said with a smile.
“This is what I should do,” Ye Yunfan straightened his body, but his expression was somewhat strange.
Jiang Yiming took in his expression and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter? Is something wrong? Your expression is strange. Could it be that your body hasn’t recovered?”
Ye Yunfan hurriedly shook his head, “Reporting to Master, after consuming the pill you gave me yesterday, my body has recovered greatly. It’s just that…”
“Just what? Between you and me, there’s no need to hide anything.”
Ye Yunfan hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, “Master, as your second disciple, I’m completely unable to help you. I’m just incompetent, and I feel guilty!”
Hearing this, Jiang Yiming instantly understood that Ye Yunfan was here to learn.
He had said yesterday that he would teach him a cultivation technique, but he didn’t expect Ye Yunfan to be so eager.
However, knowing that Ye Yunfan was hoping to strengthen the Lingyun Sect, Jiang Yiming felt his heart warm again.
Jiang Yiming smiled and said, “It’s alright. I will teach you a peerless cultivation technique today. After learning this technique, your strength will naturally increase by leaps and bounds!”
“Thank you, Master!” Before Jiang Yiming could finish speaking, Ye Yunfan hurriedly bowed.
His expression was very much excited, causing Jiang Yiming to burst into laughter.
He chuckled and said, “Yunfan, close your eyes and meditate. I will impart you the technique.”
Ye Yunfan followed his instructions with haste.
A moment later, a golden screen of light appeared in Ye Yunfan’s mind.
It was the Green Lotus Creation Technique!
This miraculous method in which the technique was imparted instantly made Ye Yunfan even more excited.
…
At the same time, in the Huoyun Sect, Yan Minghui, who was in a sorry state, was kneeling in front of a middle-aged man who wore an ugly expression.
“Father, you have to help me take revenge!” Yan Minghui sobbed.
The man with the hideous expression was Yan Minghui’s father and one of the few Nascent Soul elders in the Huoyun Sect, Yan Rutian!
Looking at his son’s sorry appearance, Yan Rutian’s ugly expression could not help but loosen up.
He quickly helped his son up and asked, “Hui’er, what exactly happened? How did you become like this? Tell me now!”
Yan Minghui sobbed for a while before he narrated the matter.
Of course, there was no lack of exaggerations in his narration.
Such as how Jiang Yiming did not think much of the Huoyun Sect, and how Ye Yunfan had robbed his things.
As Yan Rutian listened, his expression also becomes gloomier and colder.
“Impudent! How dare a small Lingyun Sect commit such a heinous crime! Hui’er, rest assured, I will certainly get justice for you.”
“But father, Jiang Yiming is at the Core Formation Realm,” Yan Minghui said in a low voice.
He didn’t say that Jiang Yiming had defeated him with one finger because if he did, his father would probably scold him for being a good-for-nothing first!
Therefore, in Yan Rutian’s understanding, Jiang Yiming’s strength was at most in the late-stage of the Core Formation Realm.
“So what if he’s in the Core Formation Realm? I’m in the Nascent Soul Realm! Alright, you don’t have to worry anymore. I will ask the sect leader for an order now.”
After saying that, Yan Rutian strode out.
Looking at his father’s departing figure, Yan Minghui’s heart was instantly filled with joy.
“Jiang Yiming, you’re dead meat this time! And that little beauty, this time, you definitely won’t be able to escape from my grasp!” Yan Minghui said coldly as delight from his devious plan being successful flashed across his eyes.
On the other side, Yan Rutian had arrived at the great hall of the Huoyun Sect.
Within the great hall, there was a high throne.
Sitting on the throne was a quietly terrifying middle-aged man who was resting with his eyes closed.
“Sect leader, I have something to report!” Yan Rutian cupped his hands and said in a clear voice.
“Oh, what is it?” Although the sect leader’s voice was calm, it was filled with dignity.
Yan Rutian quickly told him everything.
Of course, he hid the fact that Yan Minghui was beaten badly.
After all, if this matter spread, Yan Minghui would be inferior to the two other prodigies in the sect.
“Hm, Core Formation Realm, Lingyun Sect, Nascent Soul inheritance? Interesting.”
After hearing the whole story, the sect leader slowly opened his eyes.
“Sect leader, please allow me to destroy this small sect that thinks too greatly of itself!” Yan Rutian said coldly.
The sect leader raised his eyebrows and pondered for a moment before saying, “Very well, destroy it then. It’s just a small sect, it’s just nice for a warning to the others. Recently, some people are becoming more and more disobedient.”
There was no emotion in the sect leader’s voice, but even Yan Rutian couldn’t help but feel a chill under his feet.
