Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Ye Qingchen left the Ministry of Internal Affairs with satisfaction.

The last Cultivation Technique he chose was a swordsmanship technique named ”Great Freedom Heaven-Trapping Sword,” which is the most powerful among all the Saint Tier Top Sword Techniques!

This swordsmanship technique happens to make up for Ye Qingchen’s current attack shortcomings. He will no longer be limited to the Ten Thousand Swords Array and the Ten Directions Heaven-Breaking Array!

Of course.

Learning this swordsmanship won’t be easy.

One must reach the third major realm of swordsmanship—Sword Spirit!

Which just happens to suit Ye Qingchen’s qualifications.

Besides that.

He also took a mirror from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was precisely the item Su Moran had specifically asked for. Initially, Ye Qingchen thought this mirror might be a rare treasure, but upon receiving it, he realized it was merely an ordinary copper mirror, containing no Spiritual Qi.

Arriving at Heaven-Shocking Tower, Ye Qingchen handed the mirror to Su Moran and expressed his doubts.

Su Moran, leaning half against the railing, gently stroked the copper mirror with her slender hand, replying nonchalantly, ”This is not a Spiritual Treasure, just an ancestral relic left by my father. The reason I wanted it back was merely to commemorate my deceased father!”

Ye Qingchen was speechless.

His master was indeed exceedingly willful. However, he did not wish to dwell on the issue of the copper mirror any longer, so he cupped his hands and said:

”Since the copper mirror is delivered and the reward obtained, I shall not disturb you further!”

”Wait a moment!”

Just as Ye Qingchen was about to leave, Su Moran suddenly raised her head, flicking her finger, allowing a metal pill to fly to him.

”I don’t like owing others! I’ve noticed your ’Heaven-Repairing Fragment’ is just one step away, and this metal pill contains a great deal of Metal Power, perfect for assisting you in completing your cultivation technique!”

Hearing this, Ye Qingchen accepted the metal pill.

Su Moran continued:

”You’ve caused chaos in the inner sect, killed Zhang Nanxuan, and offended Marquis Guangjun. Although they don’t dare deal with you openly, they won’t let it go easily.”

”They might not confront you directly, but will surely employ other means, so you must quickly enhance your cultivation!”

”I understand!” Ye Qingchen nodded slightly.

”With that said, you may retreat now!” Su Moran waved her hand, and after speaking, she no longer looked at Ye Qingchen, but focused her gaze on the copper mirror, where a faint trace of sorrow was reflected.

...

”Sect Leader!”

Within Taotian Palace, the grand hall.

Marquis Guangjun’s spiritual sense recklessly barged in, advancing with a force akin to a surge of power, causing door after door to open abruptly, yet upon nearing the final room, it suddenly halted as though hitting an invisible wall.

Inside the room.

A simple middle-aged man wearing plain clothes and a forehead crown.

”Marquis Guangjun, you know I don’t see outsiders during my meditation, why do you deliberately disturb me?”

The man in plain clothes slowly opened his eyes.

Crack!

In the void, like a flash of lightning cutting across.

Marquis Guangjun’s spiritual sense, halted at the door, felt as though a sharp tool pierced his mind, making his head nearly explode. It took a moment to recover.

”Sect Leader, I was merely overcome with rage!” Marquis Guangjun withdrew his spiritual sense, filled with fear. ”That Su Moran is simply reckless, allowing Ye Qingchen to commit murder...”

”I’m aware of everything.”

The man in plain clothes remained expressionless, ”Su Moran lost her parents young, and her father was the former Sect Leader. Naturally, she developed a spoiled nature. Marquis Guangjun, as an elder of the sect, why should you bicker with her?”

Upon hearing this, Marquis Guangjun seethed with rage but could only begrudgingly let it go. Suddenly, he spoke gravely, ”Sect Leader, Su Moran has let Ye Qingchen go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and retrieve that copper mirror!”

”What?”

The man in plain clothes, usually unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, suddenly narrowed his eyes, his gaze almost becoming tangible, causing Marquis Guangjun to shiver uncontrollably under its pressure:

”Sect Leader, what is the secret of that copper mirror?”

The man in plain clothes, hearing this, gradually dispersed the gleam in his eyes, but stopped speaking, his gaze becoming distant, his expression dark and uncertain, ultimately shaking his head saying:

”I am not sure either!”

...

Meanwhile.

Elsewhere, Ye Qingchen, after returning to Hidden Dragon Mountain, eagerly took out the metal pill.

”I didn’t expect such a delightful surprise! I was worried that it wouldn’t be easy to complete the ’Heaven-Repairing Fragment’ in the short term, but now there’s nothing to worry about, and I can finish it at any time!”

Ye Qingchen nodded with satisfaction.

Originally, he planned to complete the final step and master the ’Heaven-Repairing Fragment’ using the weapons of Lin Tonghai, the Human Immortal, and those of Zhu Wu, Chang Yuchun, and other Half-Step Human Immortals, slowly and methodically. But now, with this metal pill, he can immediately begin cultivating.

Thinking about this, Ye Qingchen immediately activated the spell, absorbing the immense aura within the metal pill to complete his ’Heaven-Repairing Fragment.’

...

The inner gate was destroyed, Zhang Nanxuan was killed.

The Supreme Elder intervened, Su Moran coerced!

Such a major event spread almost instantaneously throughout the entire Taotian Palace, not only were many disciples aware of this person, but even the upper echelons of the sect knew of this young man’s existence.

Some lower-level elders and stewards even regarded Ye Qingchen as a specter. When mentioning him, they seemed to change color as if discussing a tiger!

Void Peak.

Inside the Martial Arts Arena.

Swish!

Just as seen.

Nine figures swept through the air swiftly, occupying the entire space of the vast Martial Arts Arena almost instantly, rushing towards Tuoba Ye like arrows off the string!

”Haha, good timing!”

Facing the nine rushing figures, Tuoba Ye was not alarmed but delighted, even letting out a hearty laugh.

In the shocked gaze of the crowd.

Just as seen.

Tuoba Ye fiercely stepped forward, raised his hand and swung, meeting a Half-Step Human Immortal charging towards him. Only hearing a loud ”boom,” their palms crossed, the two separated at the touch.

Tuoba Ye remained motionless, while the Half-Step Human Immortal trembled and retreated violently.

”Swish!”

Just as Tuoba Ye had repelled one, the void trembled violently, and another Half-Step Human Immortal rushed in like a fierce tiger. He suddenly swung his fist, pressing down forcefully. Immediately followed by a swift elbow sweep, and then a sweep kick.

”Kill!”

Tuoba Ye was utterly fearless, charged forward, fists crossed to meet the Half-Step Human Immortal. In the blink of an eye, they exchanged hundreds of punches, until Tuoba Ye suddenly broke through the opponent’s defense with a punch, striking the opponent’s chest and directly knocking them from the air to the ground!

”Boom!” ”Boom!” ”Boom!” ”Boom!” ”Boom!”

In an instant.

Tuoba Ye engaged in battle with six Half-Step Human Immortals.

In the incredulous eyes of the crowd, it was seen that the six Half-Step Human Immortals trembled simultaneously, being collectively knocked down from the air to the ground!

”Let’s go together!”

The remaining three exchanged glances, shouted fiercely, and stepped forward.

”Sizzle!”

Just as seen.

Light swept swiftly, three streams of rampant True Qi surged, forming a fierce white wave in the air, like a White Dragon breaking through the waves, sweeping across hundreds of feet of void, instantly reaching Tuoba Ye.

”Withdraw!”

Tuoba Ye shouted fiercely, gripping his right hand in the air, slashing directly.

Sizzle!

This swift blade caused the void to tremble, and the crowd only saw the blade light flash, then the three figures charging were spewing blood and were knocked out, crashing heavily to the ground.

Amidst the exclamations, Tuoba Ye gracefully soared and landed on the ground.

”He won! Tuoba Ye actually won!”

”He just reached the Half-Step Human Immortal and can fight nine like it was no big deal!”

”Indeed, not surprising for the prodigy who rang the Spirit Heaven Bell seven times, his ability to fight nine simultaneously is unmatched even among the Seven Peaks!”

Watching Tuoba Ye land gracefully, and seeing those Half-Step Human Immortals fallen to the ground, the surrounding Seven Peaks Disciples were all wide-mouthed, followed by praise that swept in like tides from all directions.

Listening to the surrounding praise, Tuoba Ye couldn’t resist showing complacency: ”It won’t be long before I step into the Human Immortal realm! What’s Ye Qingchen? I could crush him with one hand!”

As his words fell.

The previously boisterous surroundings of the Martial Arts Arena fell suddenly silent, dead quiet.

”What’s going on?” Tuoba Ye couldn’t help but ask.

”Senior Brother Tuoba!” A Seven Peaks disciple beside him, having his expression change several times, finally gritted his teeth and said: ”You have been secluded in practice and may not know... A few days ago, Ye Qingchen single-handedly battled the inner gate, defeating three hundred sixty-seven Half-Step Human Immortals, publicly stamping the Ministry of Internal Affairs Elder Zhang Nanxuan to death with a single foot!”

”Zhang Nanxuan, isn’t he a Human Immortal?” Tuoba Ye’s expression changed in disbelief.

”Indeed! Ye Qingchen used only two moves!” The Seven Peaks disciple said.

Hearing this, Tuoba Ye was instantly stunned. His face turned from white to blue, blue to red, finally darkened. He had originally thought after joining the Seven Peaks, he could reclaim his lost dignity.

Yet he hadn’t imagined that Ye Qingchen had reached an even higher level!

...

Ye Qingchen, on Hidden Dragon Mountain, was unaware of this. After completing the Heaven-Repairing Fragment, he started practicing the Great Freedom Heaven-Trapping Sword, eagerly enhancing his cultivation to reach Human Immortal.

”I never expected that after three months of intensive training, I would just reach the Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer! I originally thought I could charge into the Human Immortal realm in one go!”

That night, Ye Qingchen exhaled deeply.

”Although I haven’t reached Human Immortal, I have now mastered the Heaven-Repairing Fragment and also practiced the Great Freedom Heaven-Trapping Sword! Just curious about how much my strength has improved?”

Ye Qingchen stroked his chin, having secluded himself for three months, somewhat itching for action.

Just as his thoughts were rising, Lu Yanwu brought news, Su Moran requested him to go to Heaven-Shocking Peak.
