Supreme Sword God

Chapter 774 - 773: I Think I’ve Created a Grotto Heaven...

After Ye Chen arrived in the Outer Heaven, he directly handed ten Celestial Gates over to Lin Wen.

These Celestial Gates needed some minor adjustments from Lin Wen in order to descend directly above the Holy Fist Sect!

Counting the previous two, there are now twelve Celestial Gates available.

Two Celestial Gates make up one group, which means there are six groups.

The capacity of the Celestial Gate Passage is limited, but the personnel that six groups of gates can carry is already enough to destroy the Holy Fist Sect!

After all, they are not going to engage in a direct confrontation with the Holy Fist Sect.

When the time comes, they must make the Holy Fist Sect open the Sect Protection Array, warmly welcome and bow down, then catch them off guard!

While waiting for Lin Wen to make location adjustments to the Celestial Gates.

Ye Chen went inside the Sword Tomb.

Looking around, there are very few tombstones left on the fifth level of the Sword Tomb, and they can be quickly refined to obtain the subsequent Nine Heavens Sword Manual.

Master Legs’ two legs dangled nearby, commenting lightly, "Kid, haven’t you felt a bit overwhelmed yet?"

Ye Chen: "I do feel like my body can’t accommodate more Sword Qi, but without the subsequent techniques, all I can do is grit my teeth and continually refine and compress the Sword Qi."

Luo Qingyi also flew over and said, "If it’s really not possible, stop absorbing the remaining tombstone Sword Qi and directly eliminate the suppressed Celestial Demon remnants.

The power of Sword Qi is quite special, and no matter how much you refine and compress it, there’s a limit. You’ve already reached the limit of the Unity Realm, and any further refining may lead to unforeseen consequences..."

Ye Chen: "It’s alright, I know my limits. I can refine and compress a bit more, and if I can’t handle it anymore, I’ll stop."

Saying so, Ye Chen approached a tombstone Sword Qi, operated the cultivation technique, triggered the transformation of the tombstone into Sword Qi, and absorbed it into his body.

As for the suppressed trace of the Celestial Demon remnant soul, as soon as it rushed out and before it could roar in protest, Ye Chen swiftly sliced it with a sword and destroyed it!

Now, Ye Chen’s speed in refining the tombstone Sword Qi on the fifth level is already quite fast.

An hour passed, and a tombstone Sword Qi vanished without a trace.

"I can refine and compress a bit more," Ye Chen murmured to himself and went to another tombstone Sword Qi.

When the second tombstone Sword Qi was refined, the Sword Qi within Ye Chen began to have a heavy feeling, like molten lead and mercury.

"I can continue!"

Ye Chen walked silently to the third tombstone Sword Qi and operated the cultivation technique to refine it!

Thus.

Seven consecutive tombstone Sword Qi were refined.

The entirety of Ye Chen’s aura became immensely heavier.

"Enough." Luo Qingyi spoke softly, "Excessive refinement will cause your Sword Qi to lose its nimble qualities. With too solid a power, you won’t be able to maintain the speed, precision, and ferocity!"

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered, "The stronger the power, the greater the explosive force. Now the issue isn’t with the Sword Qi, but with me; I can’t control such a consolidated power.

But I think... with a little adaptation, I can maneuver these Sword Qi like before, as if they were extensions of my limbs."

Saying this, Ye Chen walked again to a tombstone, beginning to refine its Sword Qi.

"Boom boom boom!"

Previously, when Sword Qi rapidly circulated in his body, it sounded like Jianghai rushing through with a smooth and unrestrained presence.

But now, the sound produced by circulating Sword Qi seemed like a mountain inching along, laboriously like an old man pushing a cart!

"This isn’t my limit yet!"

Ye Chen thought silently, ignoring the advice from Luo Qingyi and Master Legs, moving again to refine another tombstone Sword Qi.

On one side.

Luo Qingyi was quite exasperated.

Master Legs chuckled, "This stubborn kid, now defiant and disobedient, let him try; ultimately, the path to growth is his own to walk.

Furthermore, our experiences aren’t always correct... At least a lot of experiences don’t quite apply to him.

Don’t forget, he’s always been tinkering alone, and many things he’s come up with have been quite interesting despite our frequent advice going unheeded.

We, the two old folks, are outdated, now it’s his era!"

Luo Qingyi glanced at Master Legs and said, "You’re quite self-aware."

"Indeed." Master Legs replied, "Unfortunately, you’re not!"

"Slash!"

A green sword light burst out from Luo Qingyi, slashing violently.

Master Legs yelled miserably as he was sent flying.

Luo Qingyi snorted coldly, "You’re old, you’re outdated!"

Ye Chen, busy refining the tombstone Sword Qi, glanced at Luo Qingyi.

Luo Qingyi stared at Ye Chen, "I’m old, outdated?"

"No, Elder Qingyi, youthful and radiant!" Ye Chen quickly shook his head, "Master Legs is brainless, likes to talk nonsense, that last slash was well-deserved!"

Luo Qingyi angrily said, "If you keep talking, I’ll slash you too!"

Ye Chen hurriedly turned away, continuing to refine the tombstone Sword Qi.

Miss Qing was apparently very pleased with the compliment earlier, yet pretends otherwise.

Indeed, all women are alike.

Miss Hei also loves to say the opposite of what she wants!

After refining two more tombstones, Ye Chen finally couldn’t withstand, yelling, "Miss Qing, I can’t hold on, I’m heading out!"

With a swift motion, Ye Chen’s figure vanished from the Sword Tomb.

Luo Qingyi bit her lip.

"Miss Qing? This brat is getting bolder!"

Outside the Sword Tomb, Ye Chen, feeling discomfort all over, immediately steadied his mind, sensing the great fortune of humanity.

He understood his current situation; though his body could handle the Sword Qi, controlling them was difficult.

Yet, increasing Spiritual Power naturally enhances control over power.

Sensing the great fortune of humanity is a good way to amplify Spiritual Power.

Soon, Ye Chen immersed himself in a special state of perception, with Spiritual Power increasing noticeably, and meanwhile, he swiftly sketched new sharp blade spirit patterns in his sea of consciousness!

Unknowingly, half a day passed.

Ye Chen’s sea of consciousness now contained eighteen strands of newly formed sharp blade spirit patterns.

These spirit patterns, freshly sketched, were still fragile, needing nurturing with Spiritual Power.

Upon sketching out eighty-one strands of sharp blade spirit patterns, nurturing them to the peak of Seventh Rank, then integrating them into the Unique Spirit Seal to form a whole, he’d make a breakthrough to a Tier Eight Spirit Master.

Ye Chen halted the sketching of spirit patterns.

With enhanced Spiritual Power, his control over the internal Sword Qi increased, under his direction, the condensed Sword Qi swiftly traversed through the flesh and meridians.

The fluidity returned somewhat.

Yet, it hadn’t restored to optimal state!

Suddenly.

Ye Chen furrowed his brows.

After circulating the Sword Qi through a Grand Circulation, they didn’t return to the Dantian, instead moved toward an unknown area.

This area seemed internal, yet appeared to be between heaven and earth.

A surreal circular space slowly manifested before him...

Ye Chen: "..."

Inside the Sword Tomb.

A slightly bewildered voice of Ye Chen echoed.

"Elder Qingyi, Master Legs, I... seem to have developed a Grotto Heaven!"

Luo Qingyi’s expression suddenly became extremely strange, rapidly sensing outside, then watched in disbelief.

"Let me see!" Master Legs urged.

Luo Qingyi waved a hand, projecting the outside scene into the air inside the Sword Tomb.

When Master Legs saw the Grotto Heaven before Ye Chen, his leg hairs trembled violently... Saying, "Luo Qingyi, does your father’s Nine Heavens Sword Manual directly open nine Grotto Heavens?"

Luo Qingyi nodded.

Master Legs said, "When he obtains subsequent Nine Heavens Sword Manual and develops the nine Grotto Heavens, including this inexplicable one, he’ll be... ten Grotto Heavens above the skies!"
