Lin Yuchan said, "Let’s not ntion that useless father and son. For now, let’s talk about Yueling and i’Er’s poor relationship. When should we have them fight a few rounds? They’ll bond as they battle. Then we can have them interact more, and we’ll show them how close we are as sisters. Give them a few hints?"
Xiao Qingxuan thought for a mont, then said, "That’s not a bad idea. I agree with the proposal. But at the mont, i’Er is definitely no match for Yueling."
Lin Yuchan said, "That’s fine. I’ll use a Prohibition Talisman to lower Yueling’s Realm so they can fight on equal footing."
Xiao Qingxuan said, "Alright, no problem. When do we start?"
Lin Yuchan said, "We’ll discuss it with them first, to show them respect. Then, we’ll proceed. Once they can work together, we’ll go to the Celestial Dragon Sword Tomb Land to train in the Sword Tribulation Realm."
Xiao Qingxuan, hearing this, naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
The two won then exchanged a smile, extrely satisfied.
...
Nine Swords Sect.
The environnt in the Outer Sect of the Nine Swords Sect was indeed not very good. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the air was not only much sparser, but also far more violent.
When Ye Tianling followed Ye Shuiyan and Ye Fengze to the dicinal Garden he was supposed to manage, he couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. This so-called dicinal garden contained no particularly precious herbs—just cultivated seedlings, so of which hadn’t even sprouted.
"Junior Brother Ye Tianling, this is the dicinal Garden, but it’s just a basic one," Ye Fengze explained. "This place is mainly responsible for the first stage of the growing process: cultivating seeds until they sprout. The best seedlings are periodically transplanted and sent to the core dicinal gardens in the Inner Sect."
"I see."
The mont Ye Tianling heard this, he understood the necessity of such a process.
Just like the Sect’s disciples, the seedlings in the dicinal Garden were graded by quality and required selective cultivation.
"Cultivating these seedlings requires a certain level of success. This job isn’t simple. If you don’t et a certain ’pass rate,’ you will be punished. These are the Sect’s rules; no one is using this to target you. Furthermore, even if the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land values you, if you can’t even handle the basic task of cultivating herb seeds, that ’value’ will surely diminish. So for the next three months, just settle down, learn the basics, and stop causing trouble," Ye Shuiyan gently advised.
She seed to understand that Ye Tianling was soone who responded to persuasion but not coercion. Thus, she had begun to ’compromise’ in many respects, her tone becoming quite gentle.
Ye Tianling chuckled. "I won’t harm those who don’t harm . But if soone cos for , I’ll take their head. As for settling down, I’m willing to, but that requires others to leave in peace."
Ye Shuiyan said, "Even though this is the Outer Sect, the dicinal Garden is considered forbidden ground. You caused a huge incident this ti, leading to the deaths of many Sect disciples and making countless enemies, but no one will dare to act against you here.
"With your Battle Power, the likes of Ye Cangqian will try everything to get to you. So, for these three months, don’t leave the dicinal Garden. Focus on your Cultivation and recovery. Your current condition... is not looking good."
Ye Tianling said, "Mm, I know. Are you this concerned because you’ve been captivated by my unparalleled charm? Are you ready to accept now?"
Ye Shuiyan shook her head. "I just think you’re very straightforward, not one for scheming and plotting. I also feel... that the Ye Clan People truly wronged you and your father, and I want to do what I can to make ands."
Ye Fengze nodded slightly at this and said earnestly, "I agree on that point, which is why I never targeted you. Also, I have so news for you—your father, Ye Fengyang, isn’t dead. He escaped from the Thousand Tribulations Wanderer. It was a brutal fight, but he should still be alive."
Ye Tianling looked thoughtful. "Mm, I had my suspicions about that, but thank you for the reminder anyway."
Ye Tianling said this with another inexplicable smile. "And here I thought the beautiful Shuiyan was captivated by my charm, that I’d be able to win her heart in a few days. Looks like I was getting ahead of myself."
A beautiful smile touched Ye Shuiyan’s lips. "With your crude and despicable behavior, what woman would dare get close to you? From what I’ve heard, you weren’t always like this. You used to be well-mannered, refined, and magnanimous, innocent and pure..."
As Ye Shuiyan spoke, she seed to recall sothing about Ye Yueling and Ye Tianyun. Her expression dimd slightly, and she added, "My apologies. I’ve touched on a sore subject."
Ye Tianling shook his head. "It’s not a sore subject. I took so things back, but I also gifted her so things. In the end, we’ll just go our separate ways. Alright, you two. I’m taking over this dicinal Garden. Tell the previous manager to get lost and stay far away. I don’t want to be bothered."
Ye Fengze nodded. He and Ye Shuiyan then left to handle the necessary paperwork and make arrangents for the dicinal Garden.
...
Ye Tianling walked into the dicinal Garden alone.
The dicinal Garden was situated in a valley, covering an area of nearly ten thousand square ters. The entire place was very tranquil.
In the center of the dicinal Garden stood a row of connected houses built from ironstone, stretching from front to back. They were ant for disciples to live in, cultivate, and tend to the garden.
However, the houses were quite dilapidated, and currently, no disciples were living inside.
The first house was the Steward’s private residence. While not as run-down as the others, all the daily necessities inside had been cleared out, leaving it empty.
Ye Tianling walked into the first house and sat down on a stone slab bed.
It was only then that Ye Tianling’s weakness reached its absolute limit.
Ye Tianling took out several dozen Profound Crystal Stones. Drawing on the Chaotic Stone Array and the Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation from Dugu Qiubai’s mories, he laid out the Array and activated it with his True Qi, forming a mystical protective ward.
The Spiritual Qi within the Profound Crystal Stones was released, forming a mist shaped by the Nine Palace Eight Trigrams and a chaotic Phenonon of the Yin Yang Five Elents, creating a rather bizarre sight.
As for its actual power, however, Ye Tianling had no way of knowing.
Once the setup was complete, Ye Tianling took out two Celestial Tier Lower Grade Creation Pills and imdiately swallowed one.
These were the Elixirs gifted to him by Die Xiyue. Ye Tianling’s injuries were extrely severe, so after taking the Pill, he imdiately began circulating the *Nine Yin Scripture* to heal.
It was an agonizing process.
After circulating the *Nine Yin Scripture*, Ye Tianling switched to the *Muscle Strengthening Scripture* to continue healing.
The effects of a Celestial Tier Lower Grade Creation Pill were astounding, yet it only healed seventy percent of Ye Tianling’s injuries.
Without hesitation, Ye Tianling swallowed the second one.
Soon, his injuries were fully healed, and he felt as if he had been reborn.
However, the scorching Energy had dried the blood covering his body, turning him into a man encased in dark brown scabs. He looked even more wretched than before.
Unconcerned with his appearance, Ye Tianling silently began his Cultivation of the *Golden Bell Shield*.
Cultivating the *Golden Bell Shield* was easy for the first two layers. Ye Tianling mastered them quickly, and his physical body grew much stronger. But starting from the Third Layer, sothing was always missing.
He switched to practicing the *Iron Cloth Shirt*, but the situation was similar. He achieved Great Success in the first two layers almost instantly, but from the Third Layer onward, it beca difficult.
Ultimately, his qi and blood were insufficient, and the tempering of his physical body was lacking.
Although the Samadhi True Fire within his body was excellent for tempering his physical form, after his Sword Essence Power was subjected to the Imprisonnt of the Great Prohibition Talisman, his Dragon Blood, Sword Essence, and Samadhi True Fire Qi all fell dormant.
At this point, aside from his even stronger Sword Heart and his deeper attunent with the Fiery Sun Sword—which still granted him imnse Battle Power—nearly all of his other Abilities were under Imprisonnt.
In fact, Ye Tianling’s overall Battle Power had slightly decreased—after all, the Imprisonnt of the Great Prohibition Talisman was truly formidable.
After recovering, Ye Tianling began to assault the seals the Great Prohibition Talisman had placed on his various acupoints.
