Chapter 337 – Drop! (1/2)

A day later.

Yang Ye was seated cross-legged with his eyes closed in a dense forest within the Ninth h.e.l.l. A strand of invisible Sword Intent surged incessantly from within him before it surged back into his body! Moreover, countless strands of faint violet sword qi flickered ceaselessly around him. The sword qi didn’t attack anything, and it just flickered incessantly around Yang Ye, causing it to seem extremely shocking!

After the incident in the Nether G.o.d’s Tomb, Yang Ye was clearly aware of his insufficiencies. No matter if it was his Sword Intent, combat techniques, or cultivation, there was a certain gap between him and those monstrous geniuses of the central territory. If he didn’t possess the Nether Ghostflame that Elder Mu had given him, then his strength would truly be insufficient in the Ancient Battlefield!

Especially his cultivation, he’d relied on the tiny vortex all along the way, so his cultivation had improved too quickly. This was a good thing, yet it was also a bad thing! It was good because his cultivation had finally caught up with those monstrous geniuses of the central region, and the bad thing was that it had been improved too quickly. His mental state was unable to catch up to his cultivation, so his cultivation wasn’t stable!

It was fine at any other ordinary time, but it was a lethal flaw during a critical moment. Especially during battles with those monstrous geniuses!

So, after he subdued the Ninth h.e.l.l Cold Gale, Yang Ye hadn’t gone about roaming the Ancient Battlefield, and he’d found a quiet place instead. He intended to consolidate his cultivation and Intent first, and then create a technique of his own!

Yes, he intended to create a combat technique! Of course, it wasn’t a sudden impulse, and it was because he’d obtained some comprehension during the battle with Mu Jun instead. During that battle, he’d combined the Nether Ghostflame, sword qi, and Sword Intent for the first time, and he noticed that the might of their combination was rather terrifying, but it was slightly chaotic and too simply. Especially when he faced a profounder who was slightly swift, then it would be very useful!

This time, he was considering how he should combine them in a better manner and then create a sword technique that only belonged to him, Yang Ye!

Time slowly based by, and 10 days had pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. During these 10 days, Yang Ye had ceaselessly consolidated his cultivation and Intent, and the effects of it were very good. After all, he possessed the Enlightened Sword Heart, so he was able to quickly enter into a state where his mind and heart were clear, and that, he could search for his flaws and ceaselessly improve on them!

In this way, his cultivation and Slaughter Sword Intent had been greatly improved. Especially his Slaughter Sword Intent, it even showed signs of advancement. However, he’d forcefully suppressed it. Presently, he hadn’t fully consolidated his Slaughter Sword Intent, so another advancement would only add even more latent troubles for him. In that way, the costs would outweigh the benefits!

In terms of his cultivation, he’d obtained rather great gains as well. Even though it hadn’t been consolidated completely and resolved the potential troubles that were created by the improvement of his cultivation that had been too swift, he was on the verge of success. So long as he didn’t improve his cultivation too quickly in the future, then there shouldn’t be any more problems.

After he resolved the problems in his Sword Intent and cultivation, Yang Ye started to concentrate on creating that sword technique of his own! Actually, it couldn’t be said to be the creation of a new sword technique. It was merely a method to properly combine the violet profound energy, Sword Intent, and Nether Ghostflame. Every single one of these three forces were extremely powerful. So, if they could be combined well, then Yang Ye was confident that this ‘sword technique’ would absolutely not be weaker to a mid-grade Heaven Rank or even high-grade Heaven Rank sword technique!

It was too inflexible to purely attach the Nether Ghostflame to his sword qi, and its might was limited as well.

In next to no time, Yang Ye’s eyes lit up. Since the Nether Ghostflame can be attached to swords and sword qi, then can’t it be attached to a sword formation? He acted as soon as he thought of this!

Yang Ye stood up, and then he flipped his hands. Two sword chests appeared in his hands. With a command in his heart, the 36 swords that were within the initial sword chest he possessed had instantly flown into the Infinite Sword Chest! After that, Yang Ye hesitated for a moment before he moved his finger slightly, and then numerous swords flew out from within his spatial ring and entered the Infinite Sword Chest as well!

In this way, there were 200 high-grade Earth Rank swords within the Infinite Sword Chest!

Yang Ye issued a command in his heart, and the 200 high-grade Earth Rank swords within the Infinite Sword Chest had transformed into 200 rays of violet light that shot into the sky, and then they formed a round sword formation that circled in the sky!

Yang Ye took a deep breath as he gazed at the sword formation, and then he flipped open his palm.

Pu!

The Nether Ghostflame appeared on his palm!

Yang Ye flicked his finger, and the Nether Ghostflame instantly transformed into a fiery ray of light that charged into the sword formation. After that, a bang resounded as the Nether Ghostflame suddenly exploded apart and transformed into countless threads of flame that entered those swords!

This was an extremely difficult process because Yang Ye didn’t just have to control the sword formation, he even had to control the Nether Ghostflame to attach itself to those swords. This was extremely mentally exhausting! In merely a few breaths of time, cold sweat had started to seep out from Yang Ye’s forehead, and his countenance gradually paled!

However, he still didn’t give up!

Since I have no backing, no sect, and no techniques, then I’ll make my own! Could it be that it’s impossible to survive in this world without a sect? I don’t believe in that!

The Nether Ghostflame transformed into countless threads of flame under Yang Ye’s control and gradually attached itself to those swords. Every single sword that had the Nether Ghostflame attached to it had changed from light violet to maroon. Moreover, they started trembling violently. It seemed as if something was about to charge out from within them!
