Chapter 07: You are in trouble already
After seeing fatty Zhao Dazhi left far away, Ye Chuan took a few spin around Purple Cloud peak. When he came back, his brows were creased tightly.
The situation regarding the flies was more serious than what he had anticipated.
Just after a night, many more medicinal herbs in Purple Cloud Peak had already withered. At some places, the medicinal herbs of the entire area were already withered and died.
Cloud Mist Sect’s spiritual congregation formation was unique. The spiritual congregation formation was used to nurture the medicinal herbs and the spiritual energy emitted out by the medicinal herbs would in reverse help to strengthen the might of the spiritual congregation formation, mutually forming a virtuous cycle.
This kind of spiritual congregation formation was known as medicinal spirit formation. This medicinal spirit formation was also passed on to Cloud Mist Sect founding master Ghost Hand Medicinal King by Ye Chuan at that time and later Ghost Hand Medicinal King passed it down to his direct disciples, then was passed down generation to generation.
Unfortunately, perhaps Ghost Hand Medicinal King’s direct disciples were not able to cultivate the medicinal spirit formation properly or perhaps more than million years had already passed, some parts of the secrets of medicinal spirit formation were lost already.
Right now, the medicinal spirit formation on every mountain in Cloud Mist Sect has quite a lot of flaws in it. Also because of this, the Wilderness mutated flies which had compound eyes on their head was able to enter into the medicinal spirit formation by entering through the weak spot of the formation.
At present, problems were arising from the situation of medicinal herbs being harmed by the flies and withering. As the medicinal herbs died, the strength of the medicinal spirit formation would subsequently get weakened by a wide margin and thus resulting in, when the sect disciples cultivate, it would be twice the effort for half the result. In the long run, not only would the sect be not able to finish Da Qin King’s assignment, the sect’s strength would also get weaker and weaker.
“Old rabbit oh old rabbit… Back then, I helped you establish Cloud Mist Sect. Now, do I need to personally help you withstand the calamity which your sect would be facing?”
Ye Chuan sighed, somewhat reminiscing his former follower Ghost Hand Medicinal King.
Million years ago, although Ghost Hang Medicinal King was hardly the strongest within all his many other followers, and was even somewhat clumsy, gluttonous and especially lecherous too, but Ghost Hand Medicinal King was absolutely one of his most devoted followers. Every time when Ye Chuan was in danger, Ghost Hand Medicinal King would always be the first to rush to the front to help him.
After finally breaking out from God Burial Valley, million years had already passed and Ye Chuan had come back to Cloud Mist Sect but the whereabouts of Ghost Hand Medicinal King was already unknown. Not sure if Ghost Hand Medicinal King had longed found a hidden place to cultivate in seclusion or had already breakthrough the restriction of heaven and earth and went to the outside world.
Ye Chuan was somewhat absent-minded. Only after sighing did he regain back his spirit.
Just one look and Ye Chuan had already found out the defects of the medicinal spirit formation and knew how to make amends to it. But to mend it, there was a need to consume a large amount of yuan qi. Without the cultivation of at least Daoist Master realm, there was not much he was able to do to amend the medicinal spirit formation. Seems like there was a need for him to speed up his cultivation speed already.
Ye Chuan walked back to his study room and looked at the crystal bottle on the table. The fly which got closed inside the crystal bottle was still vigorous and lively. After slightly muttering to himself, Ye Chuan dripped a few more drops of medicinal herb’s liquid into the crystal bottle and placed the crystal bottle back on the table.
The fly had already been tamed, but Ye Chuan obviously was not preparing to train it into a strong helper. Although the fly was a Wilderness mutated fly and its destructive power was ample, but its innate talent was actually limited. No matter how hard Ye Chuan was to train it, it would also not be able to grow too strong so therefore instead keeping it for other use was good enough for the moment.
“Crisis is just like a hurricane, when a hurricane passes through a mound, only the grass will exist. So, let this hurricane come more fiercely!”
Ye Chuan sat down cross-legged, concentrating his attention and started to cultivate.
As someone who was once Heaven Concealing Great Sage, he was not afraid of crisis. What he needed was only time. He needed time to conceal himself within Cloud Mist Sect to slowly become stronger, just like a weak little grass which when only after experiencing a rainstorm’s baptism would it only vigorously grow. After the time is ripe, he will once again overlook Wilderness World and let this world tremble under his feet.
Threads of pure spiritual qi flowed out from the air. Compared to yesterday, the spiritual qi was indeed weaker a bit.
Ye Chuan slightly released the restriction within his body which was restricting his cultivation from breaking through and revolved Yao Refining Heaven Swallowing technique, engulfing all the heaven and earth spiritual qi within a radius of a kilometer. Very quickly, there was luster of light flickering on his body. First was his skin, then his flesh and mussel vessel. This luster of light grew more vigorous and vigorous, slowly permeating into his bone, flowing into the hundreds of bones in body. His body lightly trembled as his flesh got stronger and his muscles and bones started to resonate with one another, giving out a refreshing feeling to his body. The Dragon’s Vein Crystal within his body also started to emit out vigorous life force and strength.
Bone marrow refining!
Rank 5 Wuzhe!
Ye Chuan revolved Yao Refining Heaven Swallowing technique and his cultivation broke through once again. The qi vortex within his dantian started to rotate and the Heaven Swallowing Talisman within his body became clearer than before.
The ancient martial technique within God Burial Valley was indeed formidable, letting even Ye Chuan who was once Heaven Concealing Great Sage to be astonished. This speed was also after being pressured down by the ancient restriction formation within God Burial Valley and degraded to an ordinary body, ordinary fetus and ordinary life. If not, his cultivation speed would be even faster compared to right now.
Ye Chuan stopped right after breaking through to rank 5 Wuzhe and started to revolve the Dragon’s Vein Crystal within his body to refine his muscles and bones.
During the battle with fatty Zhao Dazhi, although Ye Chuan looked as if he was very relaxed and at ease, Ye Chuan actually carried quite a risk in the battle. If fatty Zhao Dazhi’s speed was faster a bit and was nimble a bit more, then the one lying down on the ground might have been Ye Chuan.
The 7 ranks of Wuzhe realm consists of skin refining, flesh refining, muscle refining, bone refining, bone marrow refining, internal organs refining and blood refining. The first 5 rank of Wuzhe realm was the most important and was the deciding fact of one’s strength, speed and nimbleness. If someone does not properly temper and set a good foundation for the first 5 ranks, even if he was to cultivate till rank 7 Wuzhe, he would not be able to reach the peak of Wuzhe and his potential would be limited after breaking through to Xiushi realm. The main reason why fatty Zhao Dazhi lost to Ye Chuan was because his foundation was not firm at all.
Ye Chuan had ample experience and was not anxious for quick results, quickly going into meditation and cultivate after breaking through to rank 5 Wuzhe. Only when the morning of the second day arrived did he slowly opened up his eyes. Standing up and stretching up his body, ‘pa’ sounds of his bones crackling rang out and unconsciously his body grew half an inch.
Ye Chuan picked up the broom which was in one corner and started to sweep the fallen leaves in the courtyard. This was his assignment every day. While in the process of sweeping the fallen leaves, he would carefully observe and comprehend life and death and the ups and downs of life.
Life was just like a stringed instrument, there were both happiness and sadness, and ups and downs.
When life is smooth, don’t be too happy or too pleased and lose your sense of measuring because in the next moment, there might be a catastrophe coming towards you. When you are met with setbacks, don’t be too sad too as in the next moment, perhaps there would be a turnaround in your life. Look at things lightly and figure it out thoroughly. Only this way one could walk further in the journey of cultivation.
Once again being reborn as a human, Ye Chuan had a comprehension which he did not have in his past life when he had concealed the heaven with his hands. This comprehension was towards the natural law of this world.
“Big Senior Apprentice-Brother, Big Senior Apprentice-Brother…”
The courtyard was still not yet sweet finish and a shouting voice came from outside of the courtyard.
Ye Chuan opened the door and walked out, unexpectedly finding that fatty Zhao Dazhi had come here once again. However, this time he only came alone. The figure of the unruly and shrewish Zhu Sijia was not seen anywhere at all.
“Fatty, what are you doing shouting first thing in the morning. Are your buttocks itchy again?”
“Junior apprentice-brother do not dare, Big Senior Apprentice-Brother must be joking.”
