Chapter 24: Advance Again, First Disciple Returns
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A few days later, on the Lingyun Sect’s training grounds, Ye Yunfan and Huang Chaoyu were sparring.
Ye Yunfan held a sword in his hand and was wearing a white robe, making him look like a celestial.
He was using the Flying Cloud Broken Moon Technique!
A few days ago, Jiang Yiming had passed this sword technique to him.
Under his bitter cultivation, although he had yet to comprehend the essence of this technique, each and every move of his was already quite elegant and otherworldly.
Huang Chaoyu, on the other hand, was bare-handed.
She was dressed in red, like a raging fire.
Between each step and palm, faint images of a phoenix would appear.
If one listened carefully, one could almost hear the faint cry of a phoenix soaring through the nine heavens!
The two had already fought for a hundred rounds, and their spiritual energy was starting to be somewhat lacking.
“Junior sister, let’s decide the outcome with our last move!”
“That’s exactly what I’m thinking!”
With this, the aura of the two soared.
The vigorous spiritual energy seemed to transform into white clouds and a phoenix in an instant.
The white clouds enveloped, while the phoenix pierced through.
When the two made their move, a gust of violent wind was instantly stirred up.
Dust flew in all directions, and sand and stones flew everywhere.
Bang!
When the dust finally dispersed, a white figure was seen flying backward.
In the center of the grounds, the red figure was standing quietly.
Ye Yunfan stabbed his sword into the ground and retreated for quite some distance before he managed to stabilize his body.
He raised his head to look at Huang Chaoyu and couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “Junior sister’s strength has completely surpassed that mine. I didn’t expect that even if I broke through to the early-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, I would still be no match for you, junior sister.”
After cultivating the Green Lotus Creation Technique, Ye Yunfan’s progress had been rapid. He had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm yesterday.
Today, he had excitedly come to challenge Huang Chaoyu, though he didn’t think that the result would not be as he had hoped.
Huang Chaoyu smiled and quickly comforted him, “Senior brother, please don’t say that. I was lucky to have entered the Foundation Establishment Realm a few days earlier than you. Otherwise, it’s still an unknown as to who will win and who will lose.”
Ye Yunfan shook his head and didn’t dwell on this topic anymore. He then said, “Junior sister, during the fight just now, I noticed that your aura seemed to be somewhat chaotic. Could it be that you’re about to break through again?”
“That’s right. I should be about to break through to the middle-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm,” Huang Chaoyu nodded.
Ye Yunfan sincerely felt happy for his junior sister’s improvement as he said with a smile, “Congratulations, junior sister’s talent is outstanding. Master will definitely be very happy if he knows.”
“Yes, but Master hasn’t left his residence for a long time. I wonder...” Huang Chaoyu was speaking when she suddenly stopped.
Ye Yunfan was just thinking that it was strange for her to do so, but when he turned his head, he was also immediately stunned.
To their pleasant surprise, a familiar figure had appeared on the training grounds.
...
In his residence, Jiang Yiming was meditating and cultivating.
He was surrounded by some indistinct spiritual energy.
His face was ruddy and his body was emitting a faint light.
“Hu!” Jiang Yiming let out a long breath.
His eyes flew open and sparkled as if they were filled with stars.
“System,” Jiang Yiming opened his interface.
[Ding!]
[Sect Rank]: Fifth rank force
[Sect Leader]: Jiang Yiming
[Realm]: Perfection in the Core Formation Realm
[Cultivation Methods]: Green Lotus Creation Technique, Chaos Celestial Technique
[Constitution]: Supreme Celestial Demon Body (entry-level)
[Privilege]: Celestial King’s Privilege
Jiang Yiming’s gaze landed on the “cultivation realm” column where it showed he had reached perfection in the Core Formation Realm.
“I’ve finally reached perfection in the Core Formation Realm. With my current strength, even those in the Nascent Soul Realm won’t be my match. However, if I want to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, I can’t rely on the system. I still have to wait for an opportunity,” Jiang Yiming rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.
After confirming that he had reached perfection in the Core Formation Realm, his mood was much more relaxed.
The Huoyun Sect would most definitely send someone to look for trouble, but as long as the legendary Incarnation Realm patriarch didn’t come personally, Jiang Yiming could handle it with his current strength.
“I wonder if Xiaoyu and Yunfan have been cultivating properly during these two days I have been cultivating in seclusion,” Thinking of this, Jiang Yiming opened their system interfaces.
[Name]: Ye Yunfan
[Identity]: Lingyun Sect’s second disciple
[Realm]: Early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm
[Cultivation Methods]: Green Lotus Creation Technique, Flying Cloud Broken Moon Technique
[Constitution]: Not awakened
Seeing this, Jiang Yiming couldn’t help but nod his head.
His second disciple’s progress was quite advanced, he had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
[Name]: Huang Chaoyu
[Identity]: Lingyun Sect’s third disciple
[Realm]: Early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm (about to breakthrough)
[Cultivation Methods]: Green Lotus Creation Technique, Nine Heavens Mystic Phoenix Scripture
[Constitution]: Nether Phoenix Flame Body
Huang Chaoyu was about to breakthrough!
“Not bad, I didn’t expect Xiaoyu’s cultivation speed to be so fast. She’s about to break through again.”
Seeing that both disciples had improved, Jiang Yiming laughed from the bottom of his heart.
“Now that their strength has improved, it’s really a good thing. Though only advancement in strength isn’t enough. To strengthen the Lingyun Sect, alchemy, weapon forging, martial skills, and secret sect scriptures are all indispensable. Unfortunately, although these things are available in the system, they will only be available when I reach a higher realm.”
A complete sect would have a very strict inheritance system.
For example, martial skills, secret scriptures, pill recipes, weapons, magical treasures, and so on were all among those to be passed down.
Unfortunately, the Lingyun Sect, which had fallen from grace, was practically penniless.
The things they originally had were all gone.
Jiang Yiming could only grumble some more before throwing all these thoughts out of his mind.
“Forget it, I should stop thinking about all this now. I’d better go out and exercise my muscles and bones.”
With that, he walked out of his residence.
Just as he reached the door, he heard the voices of his two disciples.
Ye Yunfan and Huang Chaoyu had been paying attention to his residence, thus, when the doors to Jiang Yiming’s residence were just opened, the two of them immediately rushed over.
“Master, you’ve finally come out of seclusion!” The two of them called out in unison.
They cupped their hands and bowed to Jiang Yiming.
“Alright, I’ve only been cultivating in seclusion for a few days. Look at how excited you are!” Jiang Yiming smiled and raised his hand to make them rise.
However, the concern of the two disciples made him very happy.
“Master, we’re not just excited because you came out of secluded cultivation,” Ye Yunfan said with a smile.
Before he could continue, Huang Chaoyu beat him to it, “We’re excited because eldest senior brother is back!”
“What? Lingfei is back?” Hearing this, Jiang Yiming was also quite excited.
His eldest disciple, Gu Lingfei, had been traveling outside all this time, and now he was finally back.
As soon as he finished saying, a reply came from not far away, “Master, Lingfei is back!”
Ye Yunfan and Huang Chaoyu both smiled and moved aside.
In the next moment, a heroic-looking and dignified young man appeared in front of Jiang Yiming.
“Master!” With this, Gu Lingfei was going to kneel to Jiang Yiming.
He had heard about the matters with the Huoyun Sect from his junior brother and sister.
He didn’t expect when such the sect was in such a pinch, he as the eldest senior brother, was not around.
Moreover, he had indeed been away for a long time.
For a moment, longing, shame, excitement, and other complex emotions were mixed.
Thus, he had directly attempted to kneel.
Reacting quickly, Jiang Yiming stopped him just as Gu Lingfei’s knees were about to touch the ground.
