Chapter 145: Chapter 128 Unwelcome Guest (Two in One)

Two decades later,

above the grasslands.

Blood Ink Jade·Round Dance!

The sword blade concealed a blood-black divine light, drawing a piece of ink in the air.

Compared to the first time, Xu Yuan’s grasp of this astonishing sword technique had obviously improved several levels, but regrettably, this time Xu Yuan couldn’t even touch the hem of Tianyan’s clothes.

With a single "Shun" Zhen Yan, he instantly teleported over twenty meters away, and Xu Yuan’s sword technique struck only the air.

The young girl stood in mid-air, looking at the fading heart-throbbing sword mark in the sky, and gently shook her head, laughing,

"You idiot, don’t use this move on me in the future, it’s useless."

Xu Yuan held his sword, his face showing a hint of helplessness.

Just as the Saint’s Remnant Soul had previously said to him, cultivation alone cannot decide everything; intelligence and combat talent can both influence the outcome of a battle.

Nobody is a fool, especially not Tianyan.

Xu Yuan could strike a hard blow right at the end of an invulnerable frame for the main character of a plot, and naturally, others could do the same.

The preparatory stance of Step Void Slash is far too obvious; on first sight it is indeed very strong, but if one is familiar with this technique, its threat level would drastically decrease.

However, this preparatory stance serves as a guide for the Step Void Slash, just as Tianyan previously needed to form seals to use Heavenly Word Mantra. For now, Xu Yuan couldn’t compensate for this weakness.

Gently landing on the ground from mid-air,

Tianyan stepped lightly on the lawn, glancing at Xu Yuan:

"You’ve made some progress today, at least you can now control the flow of Origin Qi in your moves. You still have some energy left, shall we continue?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan shook his head:

"Not today; I should go back and use cultivation techniques to recover Origin Qi. Continuing now would affect tomorrow’s training."

Unlike the first time he executed Blood Ink Jade·Round Dance, he was now able to roughly control the power of this sword technique.

The first time Xu Yuan used up all his Origin Qi to execute that strike, and the result was clear: the power had spilt over excessively.

The power of a secret combat technique naturally isn’t fixed like in a game; the amount of Origin Qi channeled affects its might.

Given the strength of the Blood Ink Jade Sword technique, if used properly, perhaps only one-fifth or even one-sixth of the Origin Qi would be needed to kill a Third Grade, without the need to drain all Origin Qi in one go.

This was what Tianyan had taught him.

A real Third Grade expert could precisely control every wisp of Origin Qi inside their body, whereas Xu Yuan still wasted a lot in every battle, at least half of it.

However, now that he was practicing with Tianyan, he was working hard to resolve this issue.

Upon hearing his response, Tianyan asked:

"You only focus on healing with your cultivation every day, not on Qi refinement?"

Xu Yuan shrugged, not concealing the truth:

"My cultivation level is growing by itself every day; I don’t need to actively cultivate."

"What?" Tianyan looked puzzled.

Xu Yuan shrugged: "It’s probably due to this body of Jing He. It’s synchronizing the cultivation from ten thousand years ago; otherwise, I wouldn’t have so much spare time to do other things every day."

Tianyan frowned upon hearing this, then smiled slightly:

"That’s good, your cultivation level is almost at the peak of Third Grade. Maybe in the future, you could directly break through to Second Grade. This is good for us."

Xu Yuan straightened his clothes and responded with a smile,

"You can do it too, it’s just that you are stuck with your own body."

Tianyan snorted lightly, appearing disdainful:

"I don’t need that. If I had any other person’s physique, my Yantian Art wouldn’t even work."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan glanced in the direction of the Qionghua main peak:

"By the way, it seems that Bai Fan and his people have all forgotten what Cultivation Technique you practice."

In these days, these young nobles would often come to find them.

For sightseeing, spring outings, hunting expeditions, and aside from that, they would also invite them to the martial arts field for sparring and practice.

In order to avoid exposing their strength, Xu Yuan always excused himself under the pretext of practicing a secret technique, keeping his distance from them, but Tianyan went over often.

Bai Fan and the others showed no suspicions about the way she used the Yantian Art against her opponents.

Tianyan contemplated for a moment and then said softly,

"This Yuchu’s identity has already been compromised by me, naturally, the details about her identity will be directly erased."

Xu Yuan shook his head lightly:

"Let’s head back for now..."

As he was speaking,

Xu Yuan noticed Tianyan suddenly furrowing her brows and looking up toward the distant sky.

About to ask, Xu Yuan also sensed a fluctuation of Origin Qi coming from afar.

Channelling Origin Qi into his eyes and looking up, he saw two people flying leisurely towards the main peak in the sky.

The distance was too great, their speed too slow to discern their cultivation levels, but given they could fly, they had to be strong.

An old and a young man; Xu Yuan recognized the elder, a law enforcement Elder from the Punishment Hall, but the young man beside him was a stranger to Xu Yuan.

With his hair disheveled, dressed in a loose-fitting white robe that hung casually, a cloth bag slung across his back, and a carefree azure embroidered spring saber in hand, he had an air of unrestrained freedom about him.

After watching for a while,

Xu Yuan recalled where he had seen this white-robed young man’s attire, thanks to the books he had been reading these days.

Taiqing Tao Palace.

Withdrawing his gaze, Xu Yuan looked to Tianyan:

"It seems that this person is from Taiqing Tao Palace."

Tianyan likewise withdrew her attention:

"Yes, I know."

"What could someone from Taiqing Tao Palace be doing here at this time?" Xu Yuan mused with a trace of contemplation.

Without the Enchantress Divine Sakura Tree, Qionghua Sect’s strength had not reached its peak, and could at best be considered safe in their own corner, far weaker than at the time of their annihilation.
