“Heh, thanks to this kid, our strengths have improved greatly now! Got to watch this gate well. Otherwise, if this kid chases us away someday, it wouldn’t be good,” the old deer said.
The three people talked for a moment, figures rushing away.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The three beasts’ figures landed, and they were immediately incomparably shocked.
They felt the aura of a First Firmament Celestial Deity and even thought that it was an outsider intruding. They did not expect that this person was actually Ye Yuan!
“Kid, you … You actually broke through to Celestial Deity Realm!” The old bear opened its eyes wide, eyes full of disbelief.
Ten years ago, Ye Yuan was still only a Ninth Firmament Divine Lord.
Ten years later, he was actually already First Firmament Celestial Deity!
Celestial Deity Realm seemed to be too worthless, right?
Ye Yuan nodded and said with a smile, “Mn, just broke through not long ago. I see that you all have been very attentive and watchful these few years. So I took the time to refine a few medicinal pills. Take them as your reward.”
The old bear waved its bear claw and said, “No need, your humans’ medicinal pills. We can’t use them.”
Ye Yuan smiled slightly and said, “It’s demon divine pills.”
The old bear said in surprise, “You, a human, actually know how to refine demon divine pills?”
Ye Yuan casually threw out a few pills. The three beasts caught them and took a look, and nearly dropped them onto the ground with a tremble of their hands.
The old bear cried out in surprise, “Ten Heart Pill! Divine-grade! This … This medicinal pill was refined by you?”
Ye Yuan laughed in spite of himself and said, “Not refined by me, then could it be refined by you? I just happened to have some Ten Heart Pill’s spirit medicines on hand and refined it for you guys.”
When at the Tyrant Origin Imperial City back then, Ye Yuan practically got everything he asked for. So he also casually picked up some rank five spirit medicines.
Although they were not some rare spirit medicines, refining a few Ten Heart Pills could still be done.
Chapter 1817. Spo |
“Heh, Song Ting’s luck is really good. Qian Ye was finished off by Ye Yuan, that’s how he covered his position without a hitch and obtained the qualifications to participate in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave.”
“His strength is too weak. He’s also playing a supporting role by going. In my view, might as well let Ye Yuan go!”
“What a pity, Ye Yuan’s strength can absolutely go to the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, but he’s unable to break through to the Celestial Deity Realm.”
…
On the plaza in front of the main peak’s great hall, the entire sect was sending off the disciples taking part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave.
There were a total of four disciples taking part in the Baili Qingyan. They were respectively Baili Qingyan, Jiang Xueyan, Yi Qingxiang, and Song Ting.
Originally, Song Ting had no chance to participate in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave. But Qian Ye’s death gave him a chance.
Within the scope of the age allowed, picking the best person available, there was only Song Ting remaining.
Song Ting broke through and became a First Firmament Celestial Deity more than a hundred years ago. Presently, his strength already could not be compared to what it used to be.
The current Song Ting appeared to be in high and vigorous spirits. No matter what, being able to take part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave was also a very glorious thing.
At least, the Devil Elephant lineage would benefit along with him.
“Heh, so what if Ye Yuan’s talent is outstanding? At least in this season, he has no hopes of participating in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave!”
Song Ting was pleased with himself inwardly.
He knew that him participating in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave was hard to convince the masses. But with Ye Yuan failing to live up to expectations, who could be blamed?
Over there, Baili Qingyan’s beautiful eyes scanned the crowd, as if searching for something.
Jiang Xueyan smiled coldly when she heard that and said, “Stop looking. It’s impossible for that kid to appear. Breaking through to the Celestial Deity Realm in 10 years, nobody can do this sort of thing. Or is it that you feel that he’ll come to see you off?”
Baili Qingyan said quietly, “He said before that he’ll break through!”
No idea why, even though Baili Qingyan herself did not believe it, she still looked forward to Ye Yuan succeeding.
Sometimes, human psychology was so wondrous.
Jiang Xueyan pursed her lips and said scornfully, “Although that kid’s law comprehensions is formidable, his cultivation speed isn’t considered fast. With his cultivation speed, it’s simply impossible to cultivate to become a First Firmament Celestial Deity from a Ninth Firmament Divine Lord. Don’t you know about this?”
But Baili Qingyan insisted and said, “Others can’t, maybe … he really can?”
Jiang Xueyan could not resist rolling her eyes and said, “You lass, you’re really silly!”
Participating in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave this time, the one leading the team was the Canopy Peak’s skill-imparting elder, Xu Yan.
This time, Canopy Peak had two disciples taking part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave. He, as the skill-imparting elder, naturally felt proud.
He gave a few words of encouragement on the plaza, flicked his sleeves grandly, and said, “Set off!”
Baili Qingyan’s expression turned dim and she let out a soft sigh, “He still didn’t come in the end!”
Finished talking, she followed Xu Yan and flew high into the sky.
“Wait a minute!”
Right at this time, a figure leaped into the air, blocking the few people’s path.
“It’s Ye Yuan! He … He actually broke through to the Celestial Deity Realm!”
“Truly inconceivable! In just 10 years’ time, he broke through two realms in a row, reaching the Celestial Deity Realm!”
“Heh heh, with this, Song Ting is probably feeling awful in his heart, right? The cooked duck suddenly flew.”
“Serves him right! This guy looks like a scoundrel who realized his ambitions all day long ever since obtaining the qualifications of the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave.”
…
Song Ting’s expression was incomparably ugly. He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually broke through at the final juncture!
This way, his Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave qualifications would definitely be revoked.
This kind of thing, he really found it a little hard to accept.
Jiang Xueyan’s expression was also not much better than Song Ting’s.
She was still mocking Ye Yuan just now, saying that there was no way he could break through to Celestial Deity Realm.
In the end, her voice had yet to fade and Ye Yuan appeared in front of her in the manner of a Celestial Deity Realm.
Baili Qingyan had a surprised expression on her face. She did not expect that Ye Yuan really did it.
Ten years ago, Ye Yuan said that he could break through to the Celestial Deity Realm. She did not believe it at all.
This guy was simply a freak!
From the Divine Lord Realm to the Celestial Deity Realm, this hurdle, many people spent several tens of thousands of years and found it difficult to break through.
Ye Yuan was exceptional. He did it in ten years.
Ye Yuan looked at Xu Yan and said, “Elder Xu, I want to take part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave.”
Xu Yan looked at Ye Yuan with an astonished look and said with a nod, “I didn’t expect that you actually broke through at the last juncture. You really surprised this old man! Since you already broke through to the Celestial Deity Realm, then everything can natural
ly be discussed. With your strength, you should naturally obtain a spot.”
Hearing this, the expression on Song Ting’s face was incomparably ugly.
He went through numerous fights and eliminated many powerhouses of the same generation before obtaining this spot.
In the end, a word from Xu Yan revoked him.
Now, he already rose into the sky. But had to return to the main peak again, those people below were probably all watching the joke, right?
What a big loss of face!
Ye Yuan smiled and said with clasped hands, “Many thanks, Elder Xu. But this disciple has long broken through. It’s just that I made a trip to the Medicine Refining Hall, that’s why it took some time.”
Xu Yan was rather surprised as he said, “You just broke through and shouldn’t need medicinal pills. What did you go to the Medicine Refining Hall for?”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “I heard that geniuses gather at the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave this time. There are even some sects’ disciples who already broke through to Second Firmament Celestial Deity. So I specially went to refine a medicinal pill for Senior Apprentice Sister Baili.”
Baili Qingyan was extremely surprised when she heard that. Ye Yuan actually refined a pill for her!
Xu Yan said in surprise, “You even know how to refine pills?”
Ye Yuan said smilingly, “Know a thing or two.”
As he said, Ye Yuan passed a small bottle to Baili Qingyan and said, “With Senior Apprentice Sister’s aptitude, swallow this Jadethaw Purpleheart Pill and you should be able to break through to Second Firmament Celestial Deity.”
When these words came out, the audience burst into an uproar!
Even though Baili Qingyan’s talent was outstanding, after breaking through to the Celestial Deity Realm, the speed of her realm improvement also clearly slowed down.
These 200 years’ time, she only barely managed to cultivate to late-stage First Firmament Celestial Deity. There was still a way off from the peak.
But Ye Yuan said that this medicinal pill could make Baili Qingyan directly break through to become a Second Firmament Celestial Deity.
Was this medicinal pill so magical?
Baili Qingyan opened the small bottle puzzledly. A burst of medicinal fragrance rose into the sky. She opened her mouth wide and said in disbelief, “D-Divine-grade Jadethaw Purpleheart Pil!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Hurry up and eat, keep staring blankly and the medicinal effect will weaken!”
Baili Qingyan was slightly startled and hurriedly swallowed the medicinal pill.
Xu Yan looked at Ye Yuan in incomparable shock. He already could not use words to describe his feelings at this time.
Not only did this boy’s strength surpass others, his talent outstanding, but his pill refining skill was also impressive too!
Not long after Baili Qingyan consumed the medicinal pill, the aura on her body started climbing frenziedly, rushing toward Second Firmament Celestial Deity.
“Broke through! Really broke through! My God, the medicinal effect of this medicinal pill is also too strong, right?”
“With this, Senior Apprentice Sister Baili’s strength is going to soar a great deal. The hopes of our Shadowmoon Sect seizing a spot also greatly increased!”
“This Ye Yuan brought us pleasant surprises time after time! This guy is really remarkable!”
Under the watchful gazes of the people, Baili Qingyan’s really broke through to become a Second Firmament Celestial Deity just like that!
Chapter 1818. Whatever You Say |
A hundred days later, the party landed in front of a vast ocean.Xu Yan took out a token and threw it into the ocean.When that token fell into the water, it immediately turned into a streak of white light and disappeared.
Not long after, a small rowboat was faintly discernible, traveling over from the surface of the sea.
On the small boat, a youth in white stood on the bow, suave and elegant.
Ye Yuan’s gaze turned intent. This youth in white was not old, but he was already a Fourth Firmament Celestial Deity.
It seemed like this Bamboo Groove Divine Temple indeed lived up to its reputation!
But, thinking about it, Ye Yuan also felt relieved.
The Bamboo Groove Divine Temple gathered the entire Bamboo Groove Void Realm’s most talented figures.
Those able to enter, their talents were probably not beneath Baili Qingyan’s. They might even be stronger.
This kind of powerful talent, coupled with the Bamboo Groove Void Realm’s top-notch resources, cultivation speed being fast was also within reason.
“Zhu Wen pays respect to Elder Xu.”
That youth in white clasped his hands at Xu Yan and said neither obsequiously nor haughtily.
But Xu Yan greeted with a smile as he said, “Huhu, turns out that it’s Honorable Nephew Zhu! Not seeing for a thousand years, Honorable Nephew Zhu’s cultivation advances with each passing day!”
Zhu Wen smiled faintly and said, “The cultivation of the divine temple, outsiders can’t imagine it at all. Zhu Wen’s bit of improvement is nothing.”
Between the lines of Zhu Wen’s words exuded arrogance everywhere.
As if the martial artists outside of the divine temple were all lice.
Xu Yan’s expression was somewhat awkward as he smiled and said, “That’s of course! Our Bamboo Groove Void Realm hails the divine temple with veneration. This place is a holyland. A genius like Honorable Nephew Zhu is one in ten thousand.”
Zhu Wen had a smug look on his face. Sweeping a glance behind Xu Yan, he said with disdain, “You even brought a guy who just broke through to the Celestial Deity Realm. Looks like your Shadowmoon Sect really has no successors!”
These words, Zhu Wen said them looking at Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan just broke through not long ago, his aura was much weaker compared to the others.
With one glance, one would know that he just broke through not long.
Celestial Deity Realm, the disparity of each minor realm was tremendous. In order to facilitate the distinction, each minor realm would have initial-stage, middle-stage, late-stage, as well as peak, four stages.
And Ye Yuan’s aura, one look and it was initial-stage First Firmament Celestial Deity Realm, so Zhu Wen was very disdainful.
Those coming to take part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, even if they were First Firmament Celestial Deity, they were mostly late-stage or peak First Firmament Celestial Deity powerhouses too. There were very makes sense, let alone talk about initial-stage.
Except, as soon as these words came out, the few people including Xu Yan all revealed strange looks.
When Zhu Wen saw the few people’s reactions, he could not help getting a little annoyed.
At this time, shouldn’t they be indignant, but dare not speak up?
His face could not help turning dark and said, “Why? Could it be that I said wrongly?”
Xu Yan appeared slightly awkward as he smiled and said, “Right, what Honorable Nephew Zhu said is correct!”
Although he said so, how could Zhu Wen not hear the mockery in Xu Yan’s words?
Xu Yan was implying: you came from the divine temple, whatever you say then.
Rather, it was Baili Qingyan who pursed her lips and said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Zhu had best not be too confident. When Ye Yuan enters the divine temple, surpassing you shouldn’t take too long.”
The moment Zhu Wen heard, he immediately flew off the handle and said with a cold smile, “Heh, this junior apprentice sister has such high-sounding sentiments! It’s just that your Shadowmoon Sect seems to not have anyone enter the divine temple for ten consecutive seasons already, right? Where in the world did your confidence come from?”
For close to ten thousand years, the Shadowmoon Sect’s performance in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave got worse and worse.
Among Bamboo Groove Void Realm’s 14 True God level powerful sects, only five people could enter the
divine temple in the end. This struggle was very fierce.
Among these 14 True God level sects, the Shadowmoon Sect was only in the middle to lower reaches.
Some major sects prospered with each passing day, each season, there would be someone entering the divine temple.
But sects like the Shadowmoon Sect would naturally be looked down upon.
This Zhu Wen was obviously very disdainful of the Shadowmoon Sect.
This kind of sect, each time they came to take part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, they were all supporting casts.
Without strength, it was very hard to gain other people’s respect.
This rule was the same everywhere.
Ye Yuan said coolly, “The confidence of martial artists comes from powerful strength and not an unduly high opinion of oneself. After your esteemed self came, you’ve been constantly reproving the Shadowmoon Sect. Presumably, you aren’t living very well in the divine temple, right?”
Ye Yuan’s words made Zhu Wen’s expression change.
Ye Yuan really hit the mark!
To the outside world, the divine temple was a holyland.
Entering the divine temple represented resplendent glory.
But in reality, the competition within the temple was extremely cruel too. Naturally they could not dispense with the survival of the fittest.
For Zhu Wen to be able to enter the Bamboo Groove Divine Temple, his talent naturally went without saying.
It was just that after entering the divine temple, everyone was similarly geniuses. His previous advantages were gone too.
You were talented, but others were more talented than you!
Zhu Wen discovered that after entering the divine temple, although he improved with amazing speed, other people’s improvements were even faster than him, and could obtain the temple’s high regard even more.
His days naturally became more and more difficult.
“Insolence! Who the hell do you think you are, to dare speak to me like this?” Zhu Wen’s face fell and said in a cold voice.
Ye Yuan looked at Zhu Wen pitifully and shook his head as he laughed in spite of himself and said, “Your esteemed self’s feelings, I can understand. So I won’t stoop to your level.”
