Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 147: Chapter 148: Spiritual Sea Eighth Heaven!

The Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference is indeed a grand event concerning the Thirteen Countries.

Qianlong City naturally couldn’t be anything but bustling.

It can be said.

Everyone who came to Qianlong City is undoubtedly the most elite existence from each country and major sect. Moreover, the list of contestants holding Sword Fighting Tokens was revealed early!

Of course.

The biggest favorite to win is undoubtedly the host, Daqian Country.

Daqian Country only has three sects: Youquan Sect, True Martial Sect, and Purple Flame Sect.

However.

The strength of these three major sects is not weak at all.

Especially Shen Ming from the True Martial Sect, who is the top-ranking powerhouse on the Bronze Platform of Daqian Country. He reached the Bronze Platform five years ago but narrowly lost in the qualifiers, unable to seize the Sword Fighting Token and missed the Sword Fighting Conference.

Rumor has it.

A year ago, Shen Ming had already reached the Half-Step Profound Pill Realm, and he has been suppressing his cultivation without breaking through just for the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference.

Therefore.

Shen Ming is the number one seed.

Besides Daqian Country.

There’s also Master Tianxiong from Shengyuan Country, Gu Xunhong from Yun Kun Country...

These are all renowned powerhouses.

However, Celestial Peak Country is an exception.

”Huh, did I see it wrong? There’s a kid from the Spiritual Sea Seventh Heaven mixed in this Sword Fighting Conference from Celestial Peak Country, is this a joke?”

When someone saw Celestial Peak Country had a contestant from the Spiritual Sea Seventh Heaven, it immediately caused a commotion.

”To bring someone of this level to compete, Celestial Peak Country is really getting weaker! It seems the other participants are no better...”

”I heard previously that Celestial Peak Country produced two peerless talents, one is Gu Shentong and the other is Lu Changsheng. From this situation, Celestial Peak Country shouldn’t be expected anymore! This cultivation is probably boosted by external forces, it doesn’t really count!”

The crowd ridiculed incessantly.

Meanwhile, Lu Changsheng, Gu Shentong, and other Celestial Peak Country participants in Qianlong City all trembled with anger upon hearing these words.

They ought to know.

Which of them in Celestial Peak Country isn’t a respected existence, but now in Qianlong City, they were belittled because of Ye Qingchen, how could they bear it?

Lu Changsheng was even more furious, directly rushing to Ye Qingchen’s residence to hurl insults, intending to eliminate Ye Qingchen before the Sword Fighting Conference began.

But Ye Qingchen was on Dragon-Clutching Mountain at the moment, how could he respond to the challenge?

For a while.

This news of Ye Qingchen avoiding battle spread even further. Upon learning this, everyone grew increasingly disdainful.

”Could this brat have fled in fear?”

In a tavern.

Several Youquan Sect disciples were conversing.

”That’s for sure!” A Youquan Sect disciple said obsequiously, ”Ye Qingchen was just lucky to beat Senior Brother Zhu Yun. If Senior Brother Zhu Yun were more serious, he would have beaten him senseless!”

He said while sneaking a glance at Zhu Yun, who remained silent beside him.

At this moment, Zhu Yun’s expression was extremely sulky. Although he didn’t say it, he was always brooding over his narrow defeat to Ye Qingchen, wishing to seize the opportunity to regain his dignity.

However.

He was highly confident that if he fought again, he would easily triumph over Ye Qingchen.

Feng Wan, who was beside him, opened her mouth slightly, wanting to defend Ye Qingchen, but in the end, she didn’t speak.

’Impossible...’

’He couldn’t have just left like that!’

For a moment.

Ye Qingchen directly became the biggest joke in the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference.

Of course.

After hearing these rumors, Hong Man, Jiang Churan, and Ye Qing were naturally indignant.

Especially when others insulted Ye Qingchen, she would always argue indignantly: ”My brother isn’t like that, he can participate in the Sword Fighting Conference because he has the qualifications and strength!”

”Is that so? Is Ye Qingchen really strong?” someone asked with a mocking face, ”But why didn’t he dare to come out when Lu Changsheng went to his door to curse? I think he’s just a coward!”

”My brother isn’t a coward!” Ye Qing defended.

The opponent continued to laugh, ”If not, then let Ye Qingchen come out!”

”This...”

Every time he said this, Ye Qing was left speechless.

She only knew that Ye Qingchen went to Dragon-Clutching Mountain to search for traces left by their father but didn’t know why Ye Qingchen had been gone for so long and hadn’t returned yet.

Hong Man and Jiang Churan even tried to enter the mountain several times to search for Ye Qingchen, but the beasts in Dragon-Clutching Mountain were too numerous, so they could only operate in the outer region with their strength.

...

During the heated discussions outside.

Ye Qingchen was sitting cross-legged in front of a cliff.

As he absorbed, the spirit spring in front of the Bronze Gate unknowingly nearly dried up, leaving only a thin layer; almost all the spirit spring had been absorbed by him.

If it were someone else, they naturally couldn’t achieve this.

Because the spiritual mist was too vast, others could only absorb about one-tenth of it.

But Ye Qingchen, fully operating the ’Galaxy Chapter’ cultivation technique, enveloped a vast area, and combined with the effect of the Wind Sword Intent, the spiritual energy within a hundred feet was drawn in.

”Hoo—”

With each breath Ye Qingchen took.

His aura steadily rose.

Meanwhile, the three stars in his dantian had reached their peak fullness. Amidst countless starlights, the fourth star emerged directly.

Until the fourth star appeared.

Ye Qingchen’s aura suddenly surged as though breaking through barriers, leaping up a level.

”Finally broke through! Spiritual Sea Eighth Heaven!”

Once his aura stabilized.

Ye Qingchen slowly opened his eyes, and in his pupils, a lightning-like streak appeared, extraordinarily mysterious.

Crackling!

He stood up.

His entire body burst with sounds like popping beans.

At the same time.

Ye Qingchen opened his mouth and took a deep breath.

Hoo—

A vast current churned wildly. The almost empty spirit pool suddenly boiled over, with countless spirit liquid turning into steaming spiritual mist, forming a cloud dragon in midair, directly swallowed by him.

After gulping down this spiritual energy, Ye Qingchen immediately turned his gaze toward the Willow Tree Demon!

His previously calm eyes ignited with blazing flames.

Seven days ago.

He discovered this Bronze Gate.

But the existence of the Willow Tree Demon blocked his way outside the door, forcing him to painstakingly cultivate for seven days.

Now.

His cultivation had reached the Spiritual Sea Eighth Heaven!

The time to duel the Willow Tree Demon had finally come.

Boom!

As if sensing Ye Qingchen’s gaze.

The originally agitated Willow Tree Demon, due to the decreasing spirit pool, swayed its gigantic tree body frantically and burst into dazzling green light.

Moreover, nearly ten thousand willow branches danced wildly, seemingly thrown into a frenzy.

Facing the nearly frenzied Willow Tree Demon.

Ye Qingchen boldly stepped forward.

Instantly.

The aura accumulated in his body exploded without reservation, and for a moment, the surrounding world seemed to shatter!
