Supreme Sword God

Chapter 122: Chapter 121: Power of the Five Elements, Heaven-Burning Sword!

When Luo Qingyi returned to the third layer of the Sword Tomb.

Ye Chen had already started refining the tombstone, tempering his sword body.

The last time he tempered his sword body, he only refined his skin once. There’s still a long way to go, and he cannot relax.

Luo Qingyi looked at Ye Chen enduring intense pain, her emotions complex.

Although Ye Chen often annoyed her.

But the perseverance Ye Chen showed always moved her.

A moment later.

The Sword Qi swirling around Ye Chen’s skin dissipated. After meditating to regulate his breath, he got up and walked toward Luo Qingyi.

”Elder Qingyi, is something on your mind?” Ye Chen asked.

He felt that the way Luo Qingyi looked at him was somewhat different from before.

Luo Qingyi murmured, ”Ye Chen, let me ask you, if the responsibility that the Sword Tomb requires of you is even greater than you imagined, would you still be willing to continue?

If not, I can let you end all of this now; you can pursue normal cultivation. You have already embarked on the path of Spirit and Martial Unity, and even if you do not continue with the Nine Heavens Sword Manual, but switched to another cultivation technique, you could still become strong.”

Ye Chen looked at Luo Qingyi and said, ”Since I’ve already started, I won’t give up until I take this path to its utmost extreme.

Before, I cultivated the Nine Heavens Sword Manual purely for revenge.

Now, revenge is no longer a distant matter, but I have other thoughts.

I want to survive.

To live well.

To live with dignity forever.

Only with strength can I live the following years as I wish in my heart.

The Sword Tomb concerns the lives of the world, and I never deny that I have little interest in this matter.

But if the Sword Tomb makes me stronger, then I will shoulder the corresponding responsibilities.

In this world, nothing falls from the sky for free; there’s a cause and effect, and I’m well aware of this principle.

Spirit and Martial Unity is very powerful.

But the inheritance within the Sword Tomb is even stronger than Spirit and Martial Unity!

Utilizing the Nine Heavens Sword Manual from the inheritance in the Sword Tomb for Spirit and Martial Unity will make me even stronger!

I yearn to be powerful, so I won’t give up!”

Luo Qingyi was silent.

Ye Chen, from the start until now, has never cared about the lives of people in the world.

Actually, Luo Qingyi understands this idea well; when one hasn’t reached a certain level, talking about the lives of the people in the world is just a joke.

If Ye Chen said now that he was willing to do anything for the lives of the people, that would be hypocritical!

Through observing Ye Chen over this period, Luo Qingyi believes that if one day Ye Chen possesses enough power, he certainly wouldn’t stand idly by when the lives of the people are in crisis.

Because.

Ye Chen is passionate and righteous.

”It’s okay now,” Luo Qingyi said lightly.

Ye Chen took out the Celestial Mark Sword and said, ”Elder Qingyi, I’ve already merged the Sword Spirit into the sword, but they haven’t fully integrated. This matter requires some time, but moments ago, while doing this, I discovered an issue. The trace on the sword hilt resembling a cyan tear mark seems problematic. Could you tell me what this cyan tear mark is exactly?”

Ye Chen discovered the issue but felt it was vague; his power envelops the sword except for the cyan tear mark.

”You don’t need to worry about the reason; you will understand in the future,” Luo Qingyi said. Then as if thinking of something, she became much more serious, saying, ”Before you reach Great Perfection in the first layer of Heaven-Ascending Step, do not go finding Tian Can!”

Ye Chen, although somewhat obtuse in some areas, is quite adorable.

Luo Qingyi doesn’t want Ye Chen to be led astray by Tian Can, becoming a glib and unfaithful man.

”Why?” Ye Chen asked.

”No reason!” Luo Qingyi huffed.

Ye Chen once again felt the fickleness of women, as Luo Qingyi’s tone changed several times within a few short sentences.

Complex!

......

Leaving the Sword Tomb, Ye Chen meditated to cultivate the Nine Heavens Sword Manual, then controlled his consciousness to enter the Sea of Consciousness World, sketching spirit patterns.

Currently, he has sketched eight groups of Tier Two Blade Spirit Patterns; once the ninth group of Blade Spirit Patterns is completed and upgraded to Tier Two, he can formally condense the Spirit Seal, becoming a Tier Two Celestial Seal Spirit Master.

Besides that, he also took some time to cultivate the Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique.

He has already gotten started with the Golden Extreme Sky-breaking Sword.

The next cultivation remains primarily attack-focused, with the Heaven-Burning Sword!

Golden Extreme Sky-breaking Sword mainly focuses on single-target damage.

Heaven-Burning Sword, on the other hand, deals area damage.

Now, Ye Chen’s focus remains on explosive attacks as the core!

Defense, control, etc., are placed further back.

Time passes.

Two days later.

Ye Chen’s sword body has significantly enhanced.

His skin has been fully tempered, commencing the tempering of muscles!

Regarding cultivation, he advanced from Qi Sea Realm Sixth Layer to Qi Sea Realm Seventh Layer.

In the Sea of Consciousness, nine groups of Blade Spirit Patterns are sketched; however, the ninth group remains Tier One. Achieving an upgrade for one group is harder now because Ye Chen’s Spiritual Power also needs to nurture the other eight groups of Blade Spirit Patterns.

As for the Heaven-Burning Sword in the Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique, it counts as entering the beginner level; what’s left to cultivate are the Wood Extreme Thousand Entwined Sword, Sea-covering Sword, Earth Extreme Dragon Sword, and the final move, Five Extremes Yin Yang Sword.

For the Five Extremes Yin Yang Sword, one must cultivate the prior five great moves to Great Perfection State first.

Besides this, during these days in the third layer of the Sword Tomb, he also obtained an excellent Earth Tier lower-grade swordsmanship, but having Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique, Ye Chen isn’t inclined towards the excellent Earth Tier swordsmanship.

The swordsmanship inheritance of the Sword Tomb does not necessarily need full cultivation; it’s adapted to his situation. Ye Chen himself doesn’t need it, but he consulted Luo Qingyi, and as long as it’s not a core swordsmanship inheritance of the Nine Heavens Sword Manual, other swordsmanship can be passed on. He plans to find an opportunity to pass on that excellent Earth Tier swordsmanship to Luo Tian.

Luo Tian uses heavy swords, which are quite suitable for cultivating that swordsmanship.

On this day, Ye Chen was practicing in the courtyard when suddenly, a familiar voice sounded outside the courtyard.

”Junior Brother.”

Ye Chen immediately sheathed his sword and rushed out.

”Senior Sister!” Ye Chen looked at Liu Meng’Er standing outside the courtyard, very excited.

Since the senior brother and senior sister were poisoned, he hadn’t seen them. Now, his senior sister finally appeared in front of him!

”Junior Brother, I’m fine.” Liu Meng’Er’s mouth revealed a warm smile, having heard what Ye Chen had been doing recently, feeling proud and also very touched.

”It’s good that you’re okay, Senior Sister. Right, where are Teacher and Senior Brother?” Ye Chen asked.

”There’s urgent business on Lingyun Mountain. Teacher should have gone over long ago, but during these days, Teacher has been helping to heal me and Senior Brother, so it was delayed. Now, both Senior Brother’s and my condition have stabilized, and Teacher immediately went to Lingyun Mountain.”

”Lingyun Mountain?” Ye Chen showed a surprised expression.

Before, he heard from Qu Xiao that his teacher Yang Tianji went to Lingyun Mountain not long ago and now again...

What indeed happened on Lingyun Mountain?

Lingyun Mountain has the Holy Source Grass hidden by Master Legs; could the Holy Source Grass have been discovered?

Liu Meng’Er didn’t think much and explained the Lingyun Mountain matter to Ye Chen, saying, ”Lingyun Mountain is located at the border between our Great Zhou Dynasty and Great Qin Dynasty. It’s said that inside, there’s a strong person’s mansion existing for ten thousand years. The Great Zhou Dynasty and Great Qin Dynasty are fiercely competing over Lingyun Mountain.

Originally, Teacher never participated in such matters; last time, it was just for royal face, going to show presence.

But this time... The royal family promised that if Teacher helps the Great Zhou Dynasty capture Lingyun Mountain, they will give a Dragon Blood Pill as gratitude.

Teacher feels the Dragon Blood Pill could help Senior Brother recover, so he intends to try his best this time.”

Ye Chen nodded.

A strong man’s mansion existing for ten thousand years in Lingyun Mountain?

Quite likely, it was a masterpiece left by Master Legs back then.

If that place is broken open, the Holy Source Grass will presumably be taken by someone...

But now, Ye Chen can’t intervene in matters over there; even if he knows secrets there, he’s unable to go.

Powerful people fight; he can hardly withstand the residual effects of battles!

Unfortunately, Teacher left too hastily; otherwise, he could have told him some secrets in advance.

Of course, saying everything is troublesome; it’s hard to explain how he knows.

(For the first time at the end of a Chapter, opening to ask for a little gift, it’s too tragic, asking tearfully for support)
