The girl in black in front of him, just by appearance, seed to have an extraordinary background.
Yet she was rely a maid, so what kind of eminent identity did her mistress have!
"Ye Chen, you're utterly useless right now. Even if you knew who my mistress was, what could you possibly do? If you continue being so pathetic, it's better if you never learn who my mistress is." The girl in black said coldly, her tone full of mockery.
"If you don't want to tell , then don't. Why mock ?" Ye Chen's forehead was instantly covered with black lines, finding this girl in black to be extrely excessive.
He clearly didn't know her, so why did she keep belittling him?
He was indeed very weak now, but if given enough ti to grow, he would definitely beco one of the world's top experts.
However, thinking of how this girl in black saved his foster parents, Ye Chen could only endure it.
Since she wanted to belittle him, let her do it.
One day, he would make her realize that he was not just so useless coward.
"Did I say sothing wrong? My mistress has long beco an Immortal, yet you can't even awaken your bloodline. What are you if not pathetic? Never mind, there's no point in talking any more. For my mistress's sake, I'll save you in a month." The girl in black shook her head, not bothering to belittle Ye Chen any further.
"No need. In the life-and-death duel a month from now, I'll definitely kill Duanmu Jie." Ye Chen said with utmost confidence.
Indeed, there was a considerable gap between his current strength and that of an Immortal.
However, he was still confident in his ability to kill Duanmu Jie in a month, without needing the compassion of this girl in black.
The arrogant and condescending manner she displayed really irked him.
"With you? Do you think you can kill Duanmu Jie? Stop bragging, or it will only make you look even more incompetent." The girl in black's brows knitted closely together, utterly disappointed in Ye Chen.
If Ye Chen had admitted he wasn't a match for Duanmu Jie, the girl in black might have thought a bit more highly of him, since at least he could recognize his own strength.
But Ye Chen, clearly lacking the ability, was stubbornly obstinate, showing no self-awareness at all.
This kind of person was exactly the type the girl in black detested the most.
"Girl, let's go. There's no point in wasting ti on such a person." A mysterious elder said impatiently.
"Alright! Ye Chen, do as you see fit." The girl in black glanced at Ye Chen with utmost disappointnt, then walked into the Ancient Forest ahead with the mysterious elder, disappearing without a trace.
"Who exactly are they? Why did they help ? Never mind, I should enhance my strength first. Otherwise, they wouldn't bother with at all." Ye Chen's eyes shot with determination, eager to imdiately elevate his strength.
He could tell that the reason the girl in black and the mysterious elder disdained him was entirely due to his weak strength.
If he were strong enough, their attitude towards him would certainly change drastically, and they might even reveal their identities to him.
Therefore, the only thing Ye Chen could do now was work hard to increase his strength.
Swoosh.
Monts later, Ye Chen's body left an afterimage where he stood, turning into a swift Divine Leopard, sprinting towards the main peak.
He planned to first enter the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool and use the Enlightennt Divine Tower to absorb the Wood Spirit Qi within it, transforming it into the Power of Enlightennt.
By doing so, he could completely master the "Storm Swordsmanship" in a very short ti.
By then, his combat power would undergo a significant transformation. Even when encountering so powerful Tier Two Demon Beasts in the back mountain, he'd stand a chance to fight.
Though his current strength was already substantial, there was still a considerable gap compared to so terrifying Tier Two Demon Beasts.
Even among Tier Two Demon Beasts, their strengths varied greatly.
The Phantom Leopard that Ye Chen had previously killed was among the weakest of all Tier Two Demon Beasts. Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn't have been able to kill it.
Yet, so Tier Two Demon Beasts with strong bloodlines could even rival Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm experts, crushing the current Ye Chen with ease.
Hence, Ye Chen planned to fully master "Storm Swordsmanship" before venturing into the back mountain to hunt Tier Two Demon Beasts.
Only this way could he enhance his self-preservation ability.
A mont later, Ye Chen arrived in front of the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool. Having received permission from Ouyang Zhong, he could cultivate in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool for a month's ti.
Thus, the experts of the War King Hall secretly guarding the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool wouldn't co out to stop him.
If any other students dared to break into the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool uninvited, they would be killed without exception.
"Finally, I can cultivate in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool." Ye Chen's eyes burned with intensity. He imdiately took off his outer clothing and with a splash, jumped into the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool.
The next mont, Ye Chen felt his pores opening up all over his body, and he was extrely comfortable, as if he were soaking in a hot spring.
However, aside from comfort, Ye Chen didn't feel anything else.
Indeed, as Ouyang Zhong said, only by entering the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool while practicing a Body Refining Technique can the pool's effects be utilized.
If one enters this pool in an ordinary state, it has no effect at all.
"Ye Chen, there are experts from the War King Hall secretly monitoring around the spirit pool. It's best to activate that Body Refining Technique to put on a show; otherwise, they might beco suspicious." The Tower Spirit suddenly warned Ye Chen.
"Alright!" Ye Chen, with a thought, activated the "Ancient Golden Elephant Technique".
Zi zi zi.
In the next mont, the True Qi deep within his Dantian surged out like a wild horse, ravaging through Ye Chen's body, madly refining his physical form with an incredibly fierce thod.
Ah!
Even with Ye Chen's exceptionally strong will, he couldn't help but let out a scream, grimacing from the pain.
"No wonder few people are willing to cultivate Body Refining Techniques, this is sheer torture." A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Ye Chen's mouth.
If he hadn't previously experienced all kinds of pain practicing the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body, he might have fainted from the pain.
The thod of refining the body with the "Ancient Golden Elephant Technique" was excessively brutal, and at every mont, Ye Chen felt his ridians and muscles being torn apart.
This kind of pain is not sothing an ordinary person can endure.
Zi zi zi.
At this mont, a mysterious warm current suddenly surged from the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool, perating into Ye Chen's body, nourishing his damaged ridians and muscles.
Under the nourishnt of this warm flow, Ye Chen's ridians and muscles were rapidly healing, becoming even more resilient than before.
"Master, this warm current is the Wood Spirit Qi contained in the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool, which can be used to repair various injuries," the Tower Spirit said with a slight smile.
"Is this the Wood Spirit Qi?" Ye Chen's expression beca extrely excited, almost forgetting the pain in his body.
In fact, after cultivating the Myriad Dao Human Emperor Body to the First Level of Foundation Establishnt Realm, his physical defense was already incredibly strong, comparable to so Tier Two Demon Beasts.
However, the "Ancient Golden Elephant Technique" directly used Ye Chen's True Qi to refine his body from the inside, so it still had so effect.
If one day, Ye Chen's body becos resilient enough.
Then the "Ancient Golden Elephant Technique" Body Refining Technique would have no effect on him.
"Master, you can now activate the Enlightennt Divine Tower to absorb the Wood Spirit Qi from the Cyan Wood Spirit Pool. Don't worry, there's plenty of Wood Spirit Qi in this pool; as long as you don't absorb it too aggressively, no one will notice." The Tower Spirit said with a smile.
"Alright!" Ye Chen, with a thought, activated the "Myriad Dao Human Emperor Technique", connecting with the Enlightennt Divine Tower standing tall in the depths of the Human Emperor's Space.
Zi zi zi.
The next mont, a mysterious power surged out from the Enlightennt Divine Tower, enveloping the area within ten feet of Ye Chen.
Soon, wisps of azure gas, invisible to the naked eye, were directly absorbed into the Enlightennt Divine Tower by this mysterious power, converting into tiny azure light dots.
These light dots were indeed the Power of Enlightennt.
"It really works." Ye Chen's body suddenly trembled, his eyes filled with intense joy.
In the next tea's ti, Ye Chen continued to activate the "Ancient Golden Elephant Technique" to refine his body while using the Enlightennt Divine Tower to absorb the Wood Spirit Qi within ten feet around him.
The number of azure light dots in the Enlightennt Divine Tower also grew from the initial two or three, increasing to about fifty.
"That's enough, Master. Fifty points of Power of Enlightennt should be sufficient to completely master the 'Storm Swordsmanship'. You can give it a try." The Tower Spirit said excitedly, eagerly urging Ye Chen.
Last ti, Ye Chen used only twenty points of Power of Enlightennt to cultivate the "Thunderstorm Swordsmanship", a Yellow Level Middle Grade Martial Arts, to the Transformation Realm.
And as a Yellow Level Top Grade Martial Arts, "Storm Swordsmanship" naturally required more Power of Enlightennt than "Thunderstorm Swordsmanship".
However, fifty points of Power of Enlightennt should already be enough.
Buzz.
Just as Ye Chen planned to use the Power of Enlightennt to comprehend the "Storm Swordsmanship", sothing unexpected happened.
He suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light, making him look like a descending War God, with the image of a giant golden elephant appearing behind him, towering several dozen feet.
"I've reached entry-level. The 'Ancient Golden Elephant Technique' was mastered so quickly by , how is this possible?" Ye Chen's body suddenly trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief.
