The Two Eyes Sect was the top of the ten thousand sects in the Eastern Domain, and almost every single day, thousands of people came from the south and north of the sky to pay homage to their masters. Every year, each of the three palaces and seventy-two courtyards would select one or two outstanding geniuses for key cultivation.
In other words, every year, the Two Element Sect would select one or two hundred talents for key cultivation.
A hundred years down the line, many outstanding heavenly prides were bound to appear, and in this way, within the Sacred Transmission disciples, there were naturally hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and the experts were like clouds.
“Wow!”
Right at this moment, a purple sword light flew in from the distance, arriving outside the gate of the Ancient God Mountain before stopping.
It was a seven-metre-long purple sword, hovering ten feet above the ground, with a streak of purple electric light revolving around the sword, emitting a “giggling” sound.
Above the purple sword, there was a figure, looking twenty-eight or ninety years old, wearing a rather neat and tidy Taoist robe, with a disdainful light in his gaze, giving people a feeling of looking down on all living beings.
“Purple Brake Sword, could it be that Qin Yufan has returned to the sect?”
“This pervert, I guess he also came back to participate in the Sword Dao Competition, I wonder what level of cultivation he has reached?”
Outside the mountain gate of the Ancient God Mountain, the gazes of all the Sacred Transmission Disciples were all fixed on that purple ancient sword, some showing looks of adoration, while a look of awe surfaced on the faces of others.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was also fixed on the man standing above the ancient sword.
Being able to fly with a sword meant that he had reached the Sword Dao realm of Sword Mind.
What’s more, in the Shangqing Palace, there was a no-fly formation arranged, and generally speaking, only Half-Saints could fly in the Shangqing Palace.
However, this person, was actually able to fly with his sword in the Upper Qing Palace as well, reaching all the way to the bottom of the Ancient God Mountain, so it could be seen that this person’s strength, must be quite impressive.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Who is he?”
A look of awe appeared in Mu Jiji’s eyes as he said, “Boss Lin, you actually don’t even recognise him? This person’s name is Qin Yufan, twenty years ago, he was number one in the Yellow Ranking, Xuan Ranking, and Earth Ranking, the three rankings. Even in the most difficult Heavenly Ranking, he once reached third, and can be called the Two Yi Sect’s supreme pride.”
“When I worshipped in the Two Yi Sect, he had just reached the third in the Heavenly Ranking, and overnight, his fame shook the Eastern Region, becoming one of the hottest geniuses of that era. Counting the time, it’s been eighteen years since he became a Sacred Transmission Disciple.”
“Eighteen years have passed, and I wonder what level of cultivation he has reached?”
Zhang Ruochen stared at Qin Yufan and said, “Eighth Fish Dragon Transformation.”
Mu Jiji said, “With Qin Yufan’s strength, he is bound to become the first place winner of the Sword Dao Competition at the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation level.”
Xun Hua Liu shook her head and smiled, saying, “Qin Yufan’s strength is indeed perverse, however, I’m afraid it’s still a bit difficult to take the first place in the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation. As far as I know, there are at least two people that can compete with him.”
Zhang Ruochen signed up for the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation’s Sword Dao Competition, so of course, he was interested in the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation’s experts and asked, “Which two people?”
Xun Hua Liu said, “Innate Tongming, Qi Fayu.”
“Blood Sword, Silkworm Winter.”
Hearing Xun Hua Liu utter these two names, Mu Ji Ji nodded along, “Qi Fayu is one of the Four Great Beauties of the Two Element Sect, and she is even the heir to a medieval family that has quite a bit of affinity with the Two Element Sect.”
“It’s said that before she was even born, someone used a secret method to strike their own heart of sword intent into her mother’s foetus. As soon as she was born, she was already at the Sword Dao realm of Sword Intent, hence the name Innate Tongming.”
“It can be said that from her starting point, she already left us far behind.”
Cultivating the Heart of Sword Intent was already quite difficult, and to a cultivator, it was simply more important than life. Only those ancient clans, in order to cultivate their heirs, would someone do something so crazy.
Xun Hua Liu said, ”As for Silkworm Winter, his talent is not as heaven-defying as Qin Yufan and Qi Fayu. However, this person is quite ruthless, cultivating ruthlessly and being extremely ruthless towards himself.”
“The mortality rate of cultivating the Blood Sword Scripture reaches 90%, and while no one dares to cultivate it, he risks his life to do so. In the end, he became the first person from the Two Yi Sect to successfully cultivate the Blood Sword Scripture in ten thousand years.”
Mu Jiji said with a grave expression on his face, “This person is a sword-obsessed person who is not interested in anything but the sword.”
“Because of his limited qualifications, Silkworm Winter didn’t break through the Fish Dragon Realm until he was thirty-eight years old and became a Sacred Transmission Disciple, not much better than us.”
“However, after becoming a Sacred Transmission Disciple, he travelled to the Market Realm Battlefield to train, and after more than thirty years passed, not only did he not die in the Market Realm Battlefield, but instead, he accumulated a huge amount of Military Merit Value by virtue of his great achievements in battle. The amount of military merit value even surpassed some Half Saints. What a perverted person this is, just thinking about it makes one feel terrified.”
Zhang Ruochen pursed his lips and said, “Silkworm Winter’s qualifications, although not amazing, were accumulated one step at a time through his own efforts. Innate deficiencies are made up for later, this kind of person, is truly terrifying.”
“As long as his cultivation is accumulated to a certain extent, he will be able to break through to the Half-Saint realm. However, for Qin Yufan and Qi Fayu to break through to Half-Saint, it’s definitely much tougher than him.”
Zhang Ruochen himself was someone with insufficient natural talent, even far inferior to Silkworm Dong, so he could well understand how difficult it was to catch up with geniuses.
Of course, he was much luckier than Silkworm Dong, possessing some things that other geniuses didn’t have, which was why his cultivation speed was faster than Silkworm Dong’s.
Calculating the time, Silkworm Winter had already cultivated for sixty years, and I don’t know what amazing level of strength he had reached?
Mu Jiji sighed and said, ”Boss Lin, you really made a wrong choice by participating in the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation’s Sword Dao Competition. Apart from Qin Yufan, Qi Fayu, and Silkworm Dongyi, there are at least a dozen other formidable figures, among them are some old guys who have been cultivating for over a hundred years and have neither died nor been able to break through to the ninth change of the Fish Dragon, these kinds of people are enough to call themselves a match with the Sacred Body in the same realm just from their cultivation accumulations in the past hundred years.”
Xun Hua Liu said, “For the sake of the Glazed Treasure Pill, these old men will probably jump out one by one to compete with the youngsters.”
Zhang Ruochen, however, appeared unconcerned, smiled, and said, “Cultivators of the older generation are able to spend a lot of time cultivating top-level martial skills. Their Sword Dao realm and their own control of power must also far exceed that of younger martial artists. However, they were old after all, their blood qi had begun to decline and their bodies had begun to stiffen. Who actually loses or wins, who knows?”
Mu Jiji and Xun Hua Liu certainly didn’t believe that Zhang Ruochen would be able to fight against a cultivator of the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation, much less that he would be able to compete with a strong person in the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation.
“Look, Gai Hao and Pang Long are here! Haha! If I didn’t have to go and break into the Ancient God Mountain later, I really wanted to go and fight Pang Long right now.”
Xun Hua Liu began to rub her fists together, with a look of leaping into action.
Recently, Xun Hua Liu’s cultivation had greatly improved and had already reached the peak of the Fish Dragon First Transformation, so naturally, she was bursting with self-confidence and was eager to fight Pang Long again so as to wipe out her former shame.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, however, was fixed on the body of another man beside Gai Hao, who looked to be in his early thirties, quite extraordinary looking, with two very huge ears that hung down to his shoulders.
That man seemed to sense that someone was looking at him, and so, turned around, a pair of very sharp eyes, staring at Zhang Ruochen’s body with a cold and craggy smile.
Seeing the front of that man, Xun Hua Liu’s body instantly shook as if she had suffered a lightning strike, saying, “It’s actually him, why did I forget about him!”
Zhang Ruochen asked, “What is he?”
“This person’s name is Xu Changsheng, a Sacred Transmission Disciple of the Upper Qing Palace, with a natural talent a bit higher than Pang Long. He is quite powerful and once defeated a cultivator of the Fish Dragon Ninth Transformation with his cultivation of the Fish Dragon Seventh Transformation.”Xun Hua Liu said.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “Fish Dragon Seventh Transformation? No, his cultivation, he has already reached the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation.”
Xun Hua Liu shook her head and said, “Boss Lin, I advise you to withdraw from the Sword Dao Competition! Xu Changsheng will definitely participate in the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation’s Sword Dao Competition as well, and he’s on the same path as Gai Hao and Pang Long, so when the time comes, won’t he not target you?”
The ninth transformation of the fish dragon was known as the “glazed treasure body”, as long as one was a cultivator of the ninth transformation of the fish dragon, it was equivalent to cultivating into a treasure body, just like the “Water Spirit Treasure Body” and the “Fire Spirit Treasure Body”, the physique would change significantly.There would be an obvious change in their physique.
Therefore, there was a huge difference in strength between a cultivator of the Eighth Transformation of the Fish Dragon and a cultivator of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon, and it wasn’t as simple as just one realm.
Xu Changsheng was clearly an Unholy Body, yet he was still able to defeat a cultivator of the Fish Dragon Ninth Transformation with a cultivation of the Fish Dragon Seventh Transformation, so it was clear that this person’s strength was, well, extraordinary.
Now that he had broken through to the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation, he was destined to become a strong contender for the top ten.
Behind him, a very pleasant female voice came, “What? After seeing Xu Changsheng, you’re starting to get scared? If you regret it, right now, you can still go to the modification and sign up for a lower Sword Dao Competition.”
Zhang Ruochen’s nose gently sniffed a familiar scent, turned around, stared at Han Qiu’s body, and laughed, “Pressure, there is definitely pressure, but it’s not enough to talk about fear.”
Han Chu was standing just three feet away, wearing a green-coloured Taoist robe with a white belt wrapped around her waist, her delicate figure, outlining a charming arc.
Her temperament was very light and elegant, like a holy green lotus on the lake, yet her eyes were very evil and charming, giving off a demonic feeling.
Xun Hua Liu exclaimed with both envy and jealousy, ”Wow! Boss Lin, Senior Sister Han Qiu took the initiative to strike up a conversation with you, I’m so envious.”
“Boss Lin’s charisma has reached such a level that I, Mu Jiji, can only worship.”Mu Jiji’s eyes stared straight at Han Chu, his entire body looked as if he had lost his soul, and drool continued to flow out of his mouth.
Xun Hua Liu and Mu Ji Ji’s shocking words naturally startled the surrounding Sacred Transmission disciples, and countless pairs of eyes stared over in unison.
Only, all of their gazes fell on Han Chu’s body.
A beauty like Han Chu, no matter where she was, she would definitely be the most striking focus.
Many of the Sacred Transmission disciples present were seeing Han Chu for the first time, and were instantly struck with a feeling of incomparable amazement.
Xu Changsheng’s gaze, landing on Han Chu’s body, was completely unable to take his eyes off her, saying, ”When did the sect have such a stunning beauty? With her beauty, I’m afraid she’s not below Qi Fayu.”
“Senior Brother Xu, you’ve been in seclusion for too long, that’s why you don’t know about Senior Sister Han Qiu. Senior Sister Han Qiu is the Body of Darkness, and has long been known as the Four Beauties of the Two Element Sect alongside Gai Tianjiao, Qi Fayu, and Fox Xian’er.”A nearby Sacred Transmission disciple laughed.
