In the True Martial Hall, after returning to the Bright Hall with Su Yun, Ye Chen was told by Su Yun to wait as she imdiately went to search for sothing containing the Innate Fla Origin.
Half an hour later, Su Yun returned with a trace of regret on her face and said, "I searched the entire inventory and only found this one Fire Source Stone."
As she spoke, she handed a red stone the size of a baby’s fist to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen accepted the Fire Source Stone and could imdiately feel a searing heat.
"Thank you, Hall Master Su."
Having sothing is better than nothing, and since Su Yun was willing to help, he naturally had to thank her!
Su Yun said, "I’ll keep an eye out in Celestial Cyan City, and I might find so more."
"Hall Master Su, I’ll head back to my place first to heal Zizi," Ye Chen said.
"Alright," Su Yun nodded.
......
Ye Chen returned ho and imdiately went into the accompanying cultivation chamber and then entered the Sword Tomb.
"Zizi, here’s sothing for you to eat!"
The listless Little Phoenix flapped its pudgy wings and wobbled over to Ye Chen, then pecked the Fire Source Stone into pieces and swallowed it bit by bit.
A mont later, it spat out many stone fragnts.
Having digested the energy inside the Fire Source Stone, the Little Phoenix seed to slightly recover so energy and vitality.
Master Legs was watching Ye Chen from the side, wanting to speak several tis, but seeing Luo Qingyi staring from the side, he didn’t dare to utter a word for fear of being chopped.
"You need to take care of this Little Phoenix, but you can’t neglect your cultivation either. You’ve gone many days without refining the tombstone; take advantage of this ti and get going!" Luo Qingyi urged.
Ye Chen nodded, then asked, "Elder Qingyi, when can I access the sword array legacy within the Sword Tomb?"
"When you reach the fifth level of the Sword Tomb."
Ye Chen asked, "Is it possible to form a sword array alone?"
Ye Chen had been considering the Seven-Star Sword Array of the True Martial Hall, wanting to try forming it alone. After all, forming it with seven people was too troubleso, missing even one person would make it impractical!
"Buzz!"
The crisp sound of swords reverberated throughout the fourth level of the Sword Tomb.
Nurous strands of Sword Qi suddenly appeared around Luo Qingyi.
Each strand of Sword Qi resonated with the others, sealing off an independent realm!
Luo Qingyi demonstrated to Ye Chen the feasibility of forming a sword array alone through her actions.
A bright gleam flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes as he smiled broadly and said, "I understand!"
After speaking, he walked straight to a tombstone, activated a cultivation technique to convert the tombstone into Sword Qi, and then guided the Sword Qi into his Dantian to refine his sword seed!
The suppressed remnant soul of the Celestial Demon roared and lunged at Ye Chen.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
The Sword Essence within Ye Chen gathered into seven strands of Sword Qi, shooting out.
At this mont, Ye Chen was simulating the Seven-Star Sword Array of the Seven Stars Hall!
The seven strands of Sword Qi surrounded the Celestial Demon remnant soul, sotis slashing, sotis chopping, sotis stabbing, sotis sweeping... but the effect wasn’t very good. Controlling seven strands of Sword Qi to exert different attacks while ensuring their power remained consistent was quite challenging.
This was even though Ye Chen had far beyond ordinary Spiritual Power; otherwise, just maintaining these seven strands of Sword Qi in attacking would be an enormous challenge, let alone ensuring their attacks complented each other.
Difficulty is not scary.
What’s scary is not being able to find the entrance.
Ye Chen had now found the entrance; the next step was to familiarize himself with this process and, when the ti was right, learn the seven main changes of the Seven-Star Swordsmanship!
Next to him.
Luo Qingyi glared at Master Legs, saying, "I’ve told you before, if you dare to speak of my matters, I’ll chop you up!"
Master Legs replied indifferently, "I have no ti for that; I just wanted to talk to him about the Heaven-Ascending Step."
Luo Qingyi snorted coldly, then focused intently on Ye Chen, who was exploring the sword array.
After a long while, Master Legs couldn’t help but ask, "Did Luo Jiutian really know how to form sword arrays? Why don’t I recall that?"
Luo Qingyi replied, "That’s your ignorance!"
"..." Master Legs said, "Given Luo Jiutian’s talent, I, of course, knew he knew sword arrays. I ant that Luo Jiutian shouldn’t have been that proficient in sword arrays, should he?!"
Luo Qingyi cast a glance at Master Legs and said, "Do you rember the ti my father fought the Outer Celestial Demons?"
"Of course I rember; he gave a beating, then went to kill the Outer Celestial Demons."
"Three years before that battle, do you rember what happened between heaven and earth?"
Master Legs fell into reflection and finally recalled sothing, saying, "The world was without light, the Great Dao dissipated, Divine Blood was spilled across the world, as if the apocalypse had arrived, lasting a full nine days and nine nights!"
Even after countless years, Master Legs still spoke of this event with utter shock.
A hint of pride appeared on Luo Qingyi’s face, saying, "That was my father breaking through the firmant with a sword array, entering the Divine Realm, and causing the phenonon in the God-Slaying Battle!"
Master Legs’ leg hairs began to shiver uncontrollably.
"Luo Jiutian went to the Divine Realm for god-slaying?!"
Luo Qingyi said, "At that ti, so beings in the Divine Realm harbored ill intentions towards our world. Upon discovering this, my father used a sword array to forcibly break through the world’s barrier, battled for nine days and nights, and returned victorious from god-slaying!
If not for that battle, when my father fought the Outer Celestial Demons... it wouldn’t be like this..."
Saying this, a touch of sadness seeped into Luo Qingyi’s voice.
Though she often held grievances towards Luo Jiutian, in her heart, Luo Jiutian had always been the greatest person in this world!
"I understand now... it’s finally clear to . I always wondered why the battle shouldn’t have been like that given Luo Jiutian’s power... turns out it was because of this... he actually went to the Divine Realm for god-slaying!"
Master Legs remained stunned, unable to calm down.
anwhile, as Ye Chen concentrated on exploring the Seven-Star Sword Array, he happened to annihilate a wisp of the Celestial Demon remnant soul using it.
Though it was called the Seven-Star Sword Array, it was essentially Ye Chen controlling seven strands of Sword Qi to hack and slash chaotically.
The responsibility of forming a sword array alone is trendous!
Having overheard the conversation between Luo Qingyi and Master Legs, Ye Chen felt his blood boiling!
He didn’t know what the Divine Realm or the deities were.
But it didn’t prevent him from grasping Luo Jiutian’s might!
"Elder Qingyi, Master Legs, one day I’ll go to the Divine Realm and wreak havoc to show you!" Ye Chen laughed heartily, filled with ambition and spirit.
Unconcerned with what Luo Qingyi and Master Legs thought, Ye Chen continued to dutifully refine the next tombstone!
Master Legs said, "I really think this kid can do it."
Luo Qingyi nodded noncommittally.
Ye Chen had already received the legacy of Luo Jiutian, and his various accomplishnts proved his aptitude was not inferior to Luo Jiutian!
Beyond that, Ye Chen possessed many conditions Luo Jiutian did not.
Without realizing it, Ye Chen spent an entire day in the fourth level of the Sword Tomb, refining six tombstones.
Initially, during his cultivation breakthrough in Grotto Heaven, so edge was lost in his sword seed, but through a day of guiding and tempering with Sword Qi, he replenished the deficiency.
As for the Seven-Star Sword Array, he managed to get a rough form but still lacked much of the core changes.
At this mont, Ye Chen sensed soone approaching his residence from outside the Sword Tomb, and with a thought, he withdrew.
"Brother Ye Chen, Brother Ye Chen!"
Mu Qingqing’s anxious voice rang from outside, and as Ye Chen opened the door, Mu Qingqing’s first words were, "Brother Ye Chen, I heard your little bird is injured. Is it serious? Let help heal your little bird!"
Ye Chen: "...It’s nothing, Zizi will recover after a while of rest."
The issue with Little Phoenix wasn’t an injury, so even Mu Qingqing’s Celestial Spirit Seal with healing properties wouldn’t help.
Mu Qingqing, worriso, nodded and then said, "By the way, Brother Ye Chen, Hall Master Xiao from the Seven Stars Hall wanted to see you, but Hall Master Su chased him away. Now, Hall Master Su wants you to go find her; she said it’s sothing big!"
