Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Why did your grandfather suddenly come back? Is there something urgent?”

“It’s nothing much. It’s about that Piao Jiansheng from the Han state. His master, the sword sage of Han, Liu Chengxun, might come over after a period of time. He seems to be looking for that outstanding swordmaster from our Jianghai city to have a showdown.”

“What…”

Was there a mistake?

What does that have to do with him?

He had only killed an evil spirit that harmed the citizens and had inadvertently left a sword mark. At most, it could be considered vandalism.

Now, he had actually attracted the attention of the Han state sword sage, Liu Chengxun.

He had heard of Liu Chengxun’s name before.

When Piao Jiansheng was about to come over, someone had written about Liu Chengxun’s deeds on the forum.

If he remembered correctly, that Liu Chengxun… Should be a divine grandmaster, right?

It was said that good deeds would be rewarded, but the heavens really went overboard.

“Oh right, my grandfather has already left. Do you still want to continue reading?”

Qin Yuyan spoke again, but Ye Xiao shook his head.

His reading speed was very fast. He had basically read through all of Qin Shenglong’s books.

That was because Qin Shenglong did not have many books in his collection.

Of course, he would not tell the truth.

“I’m not reading anymore. If your grandfather were to come back again, I’m afraid it would be difficult to explain.”

Qin Yuyan’s face was slightly red.

“That’s right. I’ve never brought a boy home before, so I haven’t thought about how to deal with this kind of thing. We were lucky today.”

“Then I’ll take my leave first. Goodbye.”

“Okay!”

The two of them said their goodbyes. Ye Xiao carried Huan Liuli and walked out of the Qin residence unhurriedly. When he was out of Qin Yuyan’s sight, he instantly threw Huan Liuli to the ground.

Plop.

Huan Liuli fell onto the ground.

“Meow! Master, you’ve gone too far. I was almost asleep.”

“Scram, leave on your own.”

Ye Xiao could not be bothered to get used to that old cat. Huan Liuli could only follow behind.

The second she left Qin Yuyan, she missed her一missed the soft sofa.

As for Ye Xiao, after he returned to his residence, he waited until nighttime. That basic spiritual cultivation technique had finally been cultivated to perfection.

The seven pages of basic spiritual cultivation techniques began to flicker with golden light.

That meant that they could synthesize.

Ye Xiao immediately closed all the doors and windows and let Huan Liuli guard the courtyard to prevent himself from being disturbed or discovered by others.

The divine soul’s Golden Book quickly began to synthesize the basic spiritual cultivation techniques.

The seven basic spiritual cultivation techniques transformed into seven large golden words.

Free!

Coward!

Don’t!

Tamp!

Kun…

“What does the last word… Mean?”

Ye Xiao frowned because a word that he did not recognize appeared on the paper.

Forget it. Anyway, synthesizing was the work of the Golden Book一it would settle it on its own.

Very soon, the process was completed. It took less than ten minutes.

An extremely special spiritual cultivation technique appeared. The name was quite interesting.

Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery!

A cultivation technique that suited Ye Xiao and was filled with an extremely pretentious aura.

Of course, even though he was teasing, Ye Xiao still approved of it.

It had the ability to raise, integrate, fight, defend, attack, hallucinate, and modify one’s will… In addition to a bunch of extremely powerful methods to use one’s spiritual energy.

Its ability was not inferior to any of Ye Xiao’s current cultivation techniques.

Overpowering Saber and Heaven-cleaving Sword were only domineering offensive cultivation techniques. At the same time, they could also raise one’s cultivation, but they could not absorb or make up for the spiritual energy.

Violet Sea of Stars was a cultivation technique that could absorb spiritual energy on a large scale. It could also raise one’s cultivation, but it could not attack.

They all had their own relatively simple usage conditions. As for Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery, not only could it attack, it could also defend, raise one’s spiritual cultivation, and absorb spiritual energy to make up for the loss…

It was practically the same as all sorts of abilities that were all gathered together.

Ye Xiao dared to say that there should not be many kinds of spiritual cultivation techniques that were so comprehensive in that world.

‘Right now, I’ve already cultivated two powerful physical attack moves, one saber, and one sword. I’ve also cultivated a spiritual cultivation technique and a mental cultivation technique.

‘Just among those of the same level, my ability should be stronger than ordinary cultivators of the same level.

‘However, I still have some weaknesses at the moment.

‘One is my defensive ability. My defensive ability hasn’t been upgraded properly so it isn’t the most suitable. If I were to fight, no matter how strong I am, if someone were to hit me with a stick, I wouldn’t be able to withstand it. Then, no matter how strong the attack is, wouldn’t it be a waste?’

That was because, in that world, he was not the only martial artist. It did not mean that there were only one or two powerful grandmasters like Ye Xiao.

If they were to really fight, who knew if the other party would pummel him?

Ye Xiao also knew that even if he did not make enemies with anyone and cultivated in a subtle manner, no one would let him off.

Piao Jiansheng’s master, sword sage Liu Chengxun was a living example.

He had killed an evil spirit and accidentally left a sword mark, which had attracted his attention. Who knew what would happen in the future?

It was always good to take precautions.

‘However, even if I can’t find the basic body-refining techniques in a short period of time and synthesize it into a complete body-refining technique, I can still consider refining weapons and forge some armor for myself. Which was not bad to use as a defense.

‘Oh right, I can also forge weapons to increase my combat strength!’

A battle between martial artists was not like the fight between a few mistresses in his previous life. If he was not careful, people would really die. Therefore, he definitely had to make preparations in advance.

‘Apart from that… Hmm… I should consider practicing a movement technique.’

Grandmasters indeed ran very fast. Great grandmasters and divine grandmasters ran even faster.

However, their running had a limit. It was like a car’s speed range. It would not exceed the maximum speed, and it would consume a lot of energy.

Under normal circumstances, if they used that method to escape during a battle, not only would they increase the output of spiritual energy, they might not even be able to outrun those who were even more powerful.

Ye Xiao, for example, could run less than 200 miles per hour. However, even with the support of an incredible mental cultivation technique like the Violet Sea of Stars, he might not be able to withstand it for a long time.

Moreover, he might not be able to outrun some top-notch technological equipment.

The movement technique would greatly reduce the consumption of spiritual energy. At the same time, it would also speed him up.

That would result in unexpected advantages in all aspects such as fighting, escaping, saving people, surprise attacks… Etcetera.

Therefore, he had to cultivate a movement technique.

Suddenly, an intense knocking sound came from Ye Xiao’s door.

Bang, Bang, Bang!

In the next moment, Ye Xiao heard a sharp voice coming from outside the door.

“Open the door! I’m the landlady.”

Ye Xiao’s brows twitched slightly.

“Why would the landlady come at this time?”

However, after he could not figure it out, he shook his head and walked out to open the door.
