Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 165: Chapter 166: Invincible Among His Peers

”The strength of this young man is truly rare in my lifetime! In the future, he will undoubtedly be unrivaled in the Cyan Continent!”

Below the stage.

Elder Zhou from Youquan Sect spoke in a cold voice.

”With Spiritual Sea Ninth Heaven, he slew a powerful expert at the Profound Pill Second Heaven, and it was someone like Mu Qianshan, a formidable figure. Imagine what kind of spectacle it would be if he reached the Profound Pill Realm!”

”What a pity, such a pity, such a pity!”

Elder Zhou lamented three times.

Of course.

He was not lamenting Mu Qianshan’s death, but regretting not standing up earlier to speak a word for Ye Qingchen and forming a friendship with this future supreme existence.

As the saying goes, ”It’s easy to add flowers to the brocade but hard to send coal in the snow.”

They had abandoned Ye Qingchen earlier, and now even if they wanted to speak up, it’s feared that he wouldn’t pay them any attention.

Apart from him.

Many elders in the audience sighed quietly, clearly sharing the same thought as Elder Zhou.

As for the elders of Xingluo Sect and Shifang Sword Sect, their faces were even more unsightly.

This scene before them was so reminiscent of what happened during the sect selection tournament. They missed another chance to form an alliance with Ye Qingchen...

On the stage.

Ye Qingchen stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching Mu Qianshan’s corpse.

’This Blood Rain Tower is truly despicable! To think they wanted to perish together in the last moment. If I hadn’t completed my comprehension of Sword Intent in the Wind Demon Cave, I would have regretted it for life!’

Thinking of this.

A shadow of gloom appeared in Ye Qingchen’s eyes.

However, he wasn’t worried. With Mu Qianshan’s death, Blood Rain Tower was now leaderless and would hardly be able to cause any more trouble in the future.

Gathering his thoughts, Ye Qingchen looked at the True Martial Sect Leader and said lightly:

”Now that my personal matters are settled, the True Martial Sect Leader should fulfill the promise made for the Sword Fighting Conference, right?”

The True Martial Sect Leader, despite any reluctance, had no room to retreat. He sighed deeply, stood up slowly, and said, ”Ye Qingchen, as the champion of the Sword Fighting Conference, you should receive a reward. Three days later, come to my True Martial Sect, and I will open the Black Tortoise Pavilion for you!”

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a token flew over.

Ye Qingchen reached out and caught the token in his hand.

”It’s so heavy!”

That was his first impression.

Glancing again, he saw that the token was neither gold nor jade, and he couldn’t tell what material it was made of. The front was inscribed with the large characters ’True Martial,’ while the back had incredibly intricate runes.

”Good!”

Ye Qingchen put the token away and walked off the stage with his hands behind his back.

At this time.

Ye Qing, Jiang Churan, and Hong Man had already gathered around excitedly.

”Brother, are you hurt?”

Ye Qing looked at Ye Qingchen, her eyes full of concern.

Ye Qingchen could only reassure them one by one.

”Humph!”

Seeing everyone gather around Ye Qingchen.

The True Martial Sect Leader snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and turned into a streak of lightning that shot away.

”Let’s go!”

Elder Zhou from Youquan Sect sighed deeply and left with his hands behind his back, followed closely by the other disciples. Only Feng Wan stood there for a moment, looking at Ye Qingchen being hailed by the crowd like a star, before eventually turning and leaving.

The Sword Fighting Conference had ended, and there was no point in staying any longer.

Seeing this, many elders also stood up, and numerous disciples looked at the young man with longing in their eyes, feeling that today was the most exciting of their lives!

In their minds, there was only one thought:

”That’s how a true man should be!”

”Though I cannot reach it, my heart yearns for it!”

After calming everyone down, Ye Qingchen came to Elder Kong and Qin Wentian. He clasped his fists and said, ”Elder Qin, Elder Kong, I was fortunate not to disappoint you! I won the champion of the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference!”

”Ye Qingchen, this battle was truly spectacular, it opened my eyes,” Elder Kong nodded with satisfaction. ”But you must not become complacent! Remember, your talent in Alchemy Dao is no less than your cultivation talent. Only by mastering alchemy will you not be constrained by others in the future!”

Qin Wentian initially agreed with satisfaction, but hearing this, he suddenly made a stern face and coldly snorted, ”Old Man Kong, what are you saying? In what way does Ye Qingchen’s cultivation talent fall short compared to his alchemy talent?”

”Did I speak incorrectly?” Elder Kong retorted.

Seeing this, Ye Qingchen covered his forehead with a long sigh.

...

With many cultivators dispersing, the news of Ye Qingchen and Mu Qianshan’s battle spread like lightning across Qianlong City, and quickly throughout the entire Cyan Continent via the transmission from the numerous sect elders present!

For a moment, everyone was speechless.

Ye Qingchen won.

He slew Mu Qianshan and eradicated Blood Rain Tower.

At the end, he also revealed his mastery of Sword Intent. The strength he displayed in this battle simply terrified everyone.

Celestial Essence Sword Sect.

The main hall.

All the elders were present, but there was a deathly silence. Ever since the news that Ye Qingchen won the champion of the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference and publicly slew Mu Qianshan returned from Qianlong City, it had been like this.

It seemed like the scene from the last sect selection tournament was still vivid in their minds.

But now it was happening again.

Ye Qingchen was too strong.

Although Ye Qingchen earned a Sword Fighting Token during the qualifiers, no one expected that he would achieve such accomplishments... Recalling how they turned him away back then, and seeing him today, their previous choice felt like a harsh slap on their faces.

At the same time.

Their Celestial Essence Sword Sect would become a complete laughingstock.

After a long time.

The Sect Leader finally sighed heavily and said:

”From now on, all of you must restrain the disciples under your charge from provoking Ye Qingchen! Anyone who dares violate this will be severely punished!”

Before everyone could react.

They saw the Sect Leader already stepping down from his seat:

”The Shifang Sword Sect made such a mistake entirely due to my poor leadership. Starting today, I will go into seclusion for three years. If anything arises in the sect, seek the Great Elder!”

As his words fell.

The person had already completely left the main hall, disappearing from everyone’s view.

Inside the main hall, everyone looked at each other in dismay, returning to the deathly silence, with only a series of long sighs.

At the same time.

In Celestial Peak Country, the other seven major sects also received this news. For a moment, the disciples of the eight sects were abuzz, passing around this conversation:

”Have you heard? Ye Qingchen participated in the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference!”

”Didn’t this news come out a long time ago? With his cultivation level and strength, it was thought he’d be quickly eliminated...”

”No! He defeated Shen Ming, won the champion of the Qingzhou Sword Fighting Conference, and in full view, slew Mu Qianshan and wiped out Blood Rain Tower, exhibiting Sword Intent!”

”How is that possible!”

Everyone who heard this news was astounded and shocked.

And this battle.

Ye Qingchen further cemented his name as invincible among his peers!
