Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 97: Chapter 98: Flaming Sun Fruit

Silence!

All of Yun Gu City is plunged into deadly silence.

The Netherworld Giant Eagle, which was wreaking havoc everywhere, was actually slain by this young hero!

Moreover, he scared away the beast tide with a single sword!

”Oh oh oh!”

The next moment.

The crowd who came to their senses burst out into deafening cheers.

No one dared to underestimate this young hero anymore.

...

Soon.

The city wall had returned to calm.

Xu Kuang, Lei Qianjue, and others walked step by step towards the outside of Yun Gu City.

”Did you see? Ye Qingchen from Taotian Palace actually slew that giant eagle with a single sword!”

”Yes, yes! That sword’s power was simply like that of a Sword Immortal!”

Listening to the discussions around.

The members of Xingluo Sect were feeling incredibly complex at that moment.

First, they fled in panic during the beast tide, and then saw the Netherworld Giant Eagle, which they deemed unbeatable, being slain by Ye Qingchen. Originally, they wanted to suppress Ye Qingchen and make him lose face in Yun Gu City.

But now, it was them who lost face!

Although the beast tide had been repelled, they no longer had the face to stay here.

Just as they were about to leave the city.

Several soldiers suddenly stepped forward and said coldly:

”Honored young heroes of Xingluo Sect, the City Lord invites you!”

Their tone was absent of the previous reverence, filled with deep disdain.

If it weren’t for Ye Qingchen.

The retreat of these Xingluo Sect disciples might have led to the complete fall of Yun Gu City.

Xu Kuang secretly nodded, knowing that what was fated to come would come, sighed inwardly, ”Please take us there.”

They followed the soldiers to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Inside the City Lord’s grand hall, it was already full of people.

Ye Qingchen, Hong Man, and Jiang Churan unsurprisingly sat at the head, and though many present were upper-class figures of Yun Gu City, they found it quite natural.

Once Xu Kuang and others arrived, everyone in the hall looked over.

Upon seeing those who fled from battle, they all showed disdain.

”I can’t believe I considered these Xingluo Sect disciples as saviors, when they are just cowards!”

A cold snort echoed in the hall.

It was the voice of the shopkeeper from the previous tavern.

He once helped Guo Wei and made things difficult for Hong Man, now regretting it deeply.

”Humph!”

Others also had unkind expressions.

”Young heroes of Xingluo Sect!”

A majestic voice spoke from above.

The City Lord, sitting at the main seat, had already begun speaking: ”Why did you leave without saying goodbye? I haven’t yet thanked you all for helping us resist the beast tide! I’m about to host a banquet for Young Master Ye; why don’t you stay and celebrate together?”

Although his words were complimentary, the City Lord’s face was undeniably contemptuous.

Upon hearing this, people’s faces inevitably showed a touch of embarrassment.

Stay?

Wouldn’t that be humiliating?

Xu Kuang spoke bitterly, ”Celebrating is unnecessary, we have other matters at hand and won’t stay long! Please allow us to leave, City Lord...”

”Leave?” The City Lord nodded expressionlessly, ”In that case, I won’t keep you.”

”Farewell!”

Xu Kuang felt a prickly sense of tension and wanted to leave immediately, saluted with clasped fists, and turned to leave.

The others sighed as well.

Previously, when they met Ye Qingchen, they were so high and mighty, looking down on everything.

Now when they encountered him again, the treatment was entirely different.

Ye Qingchen was treated by the City Lord as a distinguished guest, whereas they were like discarded items, embarrassingly miserable.

As they were leaving.

Lei Qianjue gave Ye Qingchen, who was being praised by all, a deep look.

”One day, I will surpass you!”

Then.

He followed Xu Kuang, leaving without speaking.

Once the people of Xingluo Sect left, the originally silent hall regained its bustle.

”Young Master Ye, it’s thanks to you that we could repel the beast tide this time!”

”Indeed, such methods are comparable to those of celestial beings. I can’t understand what those from Xingluo Sect were thinking when they dared to challenge you!”

”Without you, we wouldn’t know what to do now!”

As they spoke, everyone felt a lingering fear.

If Ye Qingchen had really been forced away.

Perhaps Yun Gu City would now be in ruins.

At that moment.

The City Lord looked over, his previous coldness gone, replaced by fawning, ”Young Master Ye, I’ve prepared a banquet, would you honor us with your presence?”

Ye Qingchen had no interest in attending the banquet.

He naturally refused.

”No need, the urgent matter is to find the source of the beast tide! If the root is not removed, the beast tide may continue ceaselessly,” Ye Qingchen said lightly. ”I need someone familiar with the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to lead the way!”

”Good!”

Hearing this, the City Lord was overjoyed and patted his chest:

”I will certainly find the most familiar person with the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain within the city as a guide to help Young Master Ye find the source of the beast tide!”

After responding, he clapped his hands, and immediately a group of servants came forward holding trays, ”In resisting the beast tide, the three of you contributed the most. Here are some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, please take them, and I will notify you once I have found the guide.”

Ye Qingchen glanced towards the silver tray.

There were three bright red fruits, with colors like fire, containing surging Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, jumping like flames, making these fruits look extremely mystical.

Hong Man stared at the three fruits, full of amazement, swallowing involuntarily.

Although he didn’t know what exactly they were, their appearance was enough to tell these were no ordinary items.

”Since that’s the case, we won’t be too humble!”

Ye Qingchen did not refuse either.

The three helped Yun Gu City resist the beast tide, naturally they wouldn’t stay in the previous shabby cabins, and moved into more elegant, luxurious manors.

After dismissing the servants, Ye Qingchen took out the fruit given by the City Lord.

This fruit was called the Flaming Sun Fruit.

It was a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure growing in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, useful for enhancing cultivation.

Clearing his distractions, Ye Qingchen sat cross-legged and swallowed it whole.

As the Flaming Sun Fruit entered.

Suddenly, a terrifying heat flowed rapidly into his limbs through his throat.

In an instant, it was like drinking magma.

More like a flood dragon rampaging inside his body, seemingly about to burst forth at any moment!

Ye Qingchen dared not be lax.

He quickly held his breath, concentrated, and operated the ’Galaxy Chapter’ cultivation technique, guiding the medicinal power to constantly circulate within, eventually gathering into a stream of star power in his Dantian.

He didn’t know how long had passed.

Ye Qingchen felt his Dantian swelling, simultaneously his energy grew increasing stronger.

”Swish!”

The enormous medicinal power poured in, merging into the second star within his Dantian, and almost instantly, that star expanded to its limit.

At that same moment, the second star boiled like hot water.

”Bang!”

In this boiling.

The star directly split in two.

Boom!

At that moment.

Ye Qingchen’s body developed three stars.

Meanwhile.

The escalating aura around him broke through shackles and steadied.

”Three stars!”

”Seventh Heaven of the Spirit Sea Realm!”

Joy flashed in Ye Qingchen’s eyes.

He never anticipated.

That a single Flaming Sun Fruit would elevate him so much.

Not only did his cultivation advance to Spiritual Sea Sixth Heaven, but his Dantian also developed an additional star.

”First, stabilize the cultivation!”

Ye Qingchen smiled lightly, resuming cultivation.

A day later.

The guide for the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range was finally found!
