Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 341: Resentment

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chou Yuanceng’s legs went limp and he fell to the ground. His head was lowered, and his eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

Breaking fifteen acupoints in a row wasn’t just a problem of a drop in cultivation level. The biggest problem was how to repair these acupoints in the future and raise his cultivation level again.

If he couldn’t repair these acupoints, then Chou Yuanceng’s cultivation would remain at the early stage of the aperture tempering realm for the rest of his life.

It was not easy for him to reach the middle stage of the aperture tempering realm, but now, he had suddenly fallen. How could Chou Yuanceng not be resentful?

“This is the first time. Next time, it won’t be a simple acupoint.” Chen Fei said in a deep voice.

Chen Fei’s core soul energy was already much stronger than Chou Yuanzeng’s, and he possessed the intricate and delicate Thousand Threads Technique. Chou Yuanzeng’s self-proclaimed secretive little trick had no chance of remaining hidden in front of Chen Fei, and it was immediately discovered.

It would be very difficult to make independent cultivators who had cultivated to the middle stage of the aperture tempering realm yield. Only lightning strikes could do it.

“Understood!” Chou Yuanceng lowered his head and spoke.

“You stay here first. Wait for me to come back and find you.” Chen Fei’s right foot lightly stomped on the ground, and a formation rose up. It connected with Chou Yuanceng and also locked him in place.

The Dragon-Elephant formation could be casually set up without any array artifacts. Although it was not powerful, it was just enough for the current situation.

As for Chou Yuanceng’s sea of consciousness, Chen Fei did not leave any imprints on it. Compared to demonic beasts, a cultivator’s core soul energy was undoubtedly much more agile.

Even if Chen Fei left the Godsiayer Sword’s sword imprint in Chou Yuanceng’s sea of consciousness, Chou Yuanceng could slowly wear it away. After all, the two of them were of the same level, both of them were at the middle stage of the aperture tempering realm.

Chen Fei’s core soul energy was stronger than Chou Yuanceng’s, but it was not to the point of crushing him. Moreover, there might be other risks if he left his core soul energy in someone else’s sea of consciousness.

“Yes, sir!” Chou Yuanceng nodded.

Chen Fei glanced at Chou Yuanceng and moved his right hand slightly, taking away everything on Chou Yuanceng’s body, including the spirit saber.

Following that, Chen Fei’s figure swayed as he rushed towards the location of the Primordial Sword Sect. Halfway through, Chen Fei threw the items into the spatial grid. When he was less than ten miles away from the sect, he saw Feng Xiupu and the others from afar.

Chen Fei did not deliberately conceal his aura, so Feng Xiupu and the others quickly sensed his arrival and stopped in their tracks.

“Where is that person?” Geng Yanlin asked in surprise when he saw that Chen Fei was unharmed.

Earlier, when Feng Xiupu left with his men, Geng Yanlin’s heart was filled with doubts. No matter how talented Chen Fei was, he was still too young. He must have broken through to the aperture tempering realm not long ago.

Under such circumstances, Feng Xiupu actually agreed to Chen Fei’s request to stay behind to stop Chou Yuanceng. Geng Yanlin did not have the time to ask about the situation at that time.

Now that he saw that Chen Fei was completely fine and that Chou Yuanceng had not caught up to him, Geng Yanlin’s doubts grew. What was going on?

“I stopped him for a moment and took the opportunity to run back.”

As Chen Fei spoke, a phantom walked out of Chen Fei’s body and gradually condensed into Chen Fei’s appearance. Then, it circled around Chen Fei twice and returned to Chen Fei’s body.

Geng Yunfei stared at Chen Fei with his eyes wide open. What kind of cultivation technique was this? The aura of that illusory figure was exactly the same as Chen Fei’s. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would probably have recognized it as the real person.

“Soaring Heaven Technique?”

Geng Yanlin knew about this technique of the Primordial Sword Sect. It was a must-have technique for every aperture tempering realm cultivator in the sect. However, the attainments in the technique that Chen Fei had just displayed were too good.

“I gained some advantages from using the Soaring Heaven Technique, and since that person couldn’t catch up to me, he eventually gave up.” Chen Fei said with a smile.

“Some advantages?”

Geng Yanlin’s eyebrows twitched involuntarily. Was this level of attainment in the cultivation technique just considered as some advantages? Geng Yanlin looked at Feng Xiupu and noticed that his expression was calm, as if he had expected this situation.

Feng Xiupu had expected this, but he was definitely not as calm as he looked.

Feng Xiupu had witnessed Chen Fei’s battle strength once, but he didn’t expect Chen Fei to be able to escape unscathed from an aperture tempering realm intermediate stage cultivator.

If he had known that Chen Fei had improved so much, Feng Xiupu wouldn’t have been so worried.

Guo Linshan looked at Chen Fei with admiration from behind. He had heard news about Chen Fei. The most recent news was that Chen Fei had defeated Shen Tucang from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.

At that time, Guo Linshan still believed that even after breaking through to the aperture tempering realm, Chen Fei’s talent remained undiminished. Even the fellow disciples of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect at the same level couldn’t surpass Chen Fei.

Now, looking at it again, it’s not just that his talent remains undiminished; it’s that his talent was completely underestimated. If Shen Tucang were to face someone in the aperture tempering realm mid-stage, he’d probably be killed on the spot, without even a chance to escape.

“Let’s return to the sect first.” Feng Xiupu smiled.

“Yes, yes, yes. Let’s go back first.” Geng Yanlin nodded.

Although Chou Yuanceng had temporarily retreated, it was hard to say if he would suddenly appear. Geng Yanlin did not dare to be careless in the face of someone who was far stronger than him and was still staring at him.

After all, he was not alone. If he was alone, he would have died. However, he still had his wife and children by his side. Geng Yanlin had to take responsibility.

In just a short while, they finally returned to the main gate of the Primordial Sword Sect. After arranging Geng Yanlin’s wife and children, Feng Xiupu brought Geng Yanlin to meet Sect Leader Qu Qingsheng.

Chen Fei stood at the side and witnessed the process of Geng Yanlin becoming a visiting elder of the Primordial Sword Sect.

It had been a long time since the Primordial Sword Sect had any honorary members join for a long time, and the reason is quite simple—they can’t offer attractive enough conditions to entice those in the mid-stage aperture tempering realm to join.

For those independent cultivators who wish to become honorary members, their first choice would undoubtedly be the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect. After all, the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect’s rewards in terms of techniques and the monthly allocation of resources far surpass those of other sects.

Since that was the case, why did he choose the Primordial Sword Sect?

Therefore, Qu Qingsheng was extremely happy about Geng Yanlin’s arrival. After all, this meant that the sect’s strength had increased by another point.

After all, the Primordial Sword Sect had lost three elders in the aperture tempering realm during the trip to the mystic realm, which made Qu Qingsheng’s heart ache.

An hour later, Feng Xiupu left with Geng Yanlin while Chen Fei stayed behind.

“Sect Master, I need to leave the sect for a period of time.” Chen Fei looked at Qu Qingsheng and said.

Chen Fei was now the hail master of the Wind Listening Hall. Although the Wind Listening Hall existed in name only, Chen Fei was still an aperture tempering realm cultivator. Since he usually stayed in the Immortal Cloud City, he naturally did not need to make any announcements.

However, if they were going on a long journey, they definitely had to inform them in advance. Especially in such a tense situation, the sect needed to know where every aperture tempering realm cultivator was.

“About how long?” Qu Qingsheng didn’t ask for the reason. Everyone had their own private matters and couldn’t tell their superiors everything.

“The shortest is ten days, the longest is a month.” Chen Fei thought for a moment and said.

“Alright, be careful outside.” Qu Qingsheng nodded and instructed.

“Good!”

“Oh right, how’s your cultivation of the Primordial Sword Scripture?” Just as Chen Fei was about to bid farewell, Qu Qingsheng suddenly asked.

It had been almost a year since Chen Fei took back the Primordial Sword Scripture. Qu Qingsheng’s cultivation speed was not bad. After all, he was a late-stage aperture tempering realm expert. Whether it was his core soul energy or cultivation experience, he was far stronger than ordinary aperture tempering realm experts.

Qu Qingsheng was only curious about Chen Fei’s cultivation speed. After all, the talent that Chen Fei had always displayed was extremely monstrous. And if Chen Fei had any questions regarding cultivation, Qu Qingsheng could also answer them.

There were many elders in the sect who were cultivating the Primordial Sword Scripture. Although many of them had not even comprehended their main cultivation method to the extreme, if they could learn the second level of the Primordial Sword Scripture and cultivate another cultivation method, they could immediately increase their combat strength.

As such, many elders would come over to ask Qu Qingsheng if they had any questions regarding the Primordial Sword Scripture, and Qu Qingsheng would try his best to give them pointers.

H

It’s still considered smooth.” Chen Fei thought for a moment and didn’t mention that he had completed the second level of the Primordial Sword Scripture a few months ago.

“Well, if you have any questions, you can ask me. At the same time, if there were any difficulties in cultivating the Giant Spirit Sword, you could also look for the other elders.” Qu Qingsheng did not suspect anything and smiled.

Cultivating multiple cultivation techniques at the same time was a huge test for a cultivator’s comprehension and energy.

A long time ago, the Primordial Sword Sect actually only had one Primordial Sword Scripture, and it was not divided into seven cultivation techniques. However, the sect later discovered that the difficulty of cultivating the Primordial Sword Scripture was too great and many cultivators made slow progress.

At the same time, in order to ensure the authority of the main peak, the Primordial Sword Scripture was split into seven cultivation methods. While the power of these techniques decreased significantly, the difficulty of cultivation also became much lower.

If one’s talent is sufficient, they can then cultivate other techniques and gradually merge them. This approach did indeed contribute to the gradual prosperity of the Primordial Sword Sect, until they encountered that calamity which nearly brought the sect to its destruction.

“Thank you for your concern, Sect Master.” Chen Fei smiled, cupped his hands, and left.

Qu Qingsheng looked at Chen Fei’s back with a smile on his face. In Qu Qingsheng’s view, Chen Fei would definitely become the pillar of the Primordial Sword Sect in the future.

Although it requires waiting for several decades, this time is an essential period of cultivation that every cultivator in the aperture tempering realm must go through. It can’t be rushed, nor can it be hurried.

Dozens of miles away.

Chou Yuanceng, who had been sitting on the ground without moving, slowly raised his head. Chou Yuanceng looked around and confirmed that Chen Fei had really left. The hatred hidden deep in his eyes was completely revealed.

The realm that he had painstakingly cultivated up to was destroyed in a single day. Now, he was even heavily injured and was locked in place like a prisoner, unable to leave.

Chou Yuanceng had cultivated for so many years, but he had never suffered such injuries and suffering. Now that he had experienced all of it in a single day, how could he remain calm and accept this?

Chou Yuanceng took a few deep breaths and was about to stand up when the surrounding formation lit up slightly. A huge force poured into his body, causing Chou Yuanceng to sit back down..
