Being chased away by the Pill Cloud Dominator, Xiao Chen felt depressed. Looking at Xiao Chen's back, the Pill Cloud Dominator murmured to himself, "That kid's talent seems to have improved quite a bit. Could it be because of the power of the bloodline as well?"
As Xiao Chen's master, the Pill Cloud Dominator could clearly feel that Xiao Chen's talent had improved significantly after this round of concocting medicines.
Xiao Chen was already one of the Ten Great Prides. Now that his talent had improved once more, it was hard to imagine just how great his future achievements would be.
Unaware of the Pill Cloud Ruler's thoughts, Xiao Chen's depression quickly dissipated after he was chased away. He had finally fulfilled the Pill Cloud Ruler's request. With that, he could use the remaining time to prepare for the Five Elemental Dao Palace.
After returning to the Dustless Residence, Xiao Chen impatiently went to the Hundred Spirits Lake. He could enter and leave the sacred cultivation ground of Nine Firmaments Palace whenever he wanted. If he wanted to make a breakthrough, the Hundred Spirits Lake would be his first choice.
This was not his first time there. Xiao Chen familiarly went to the Hundred Spirits Lake and found a mat to sit down cross-legged. Then, he began to cultivate.
Originally, Xiao Chen could have broken through to minor success in the Earth Clarity Mirror realm. However, due to the Pill Cloud Ruler's request, Xiao Chen obediently studied alchemy for half a month. However, that half a month of studying alchemy was not for nothing. It allowed Xiao Chen to reach the pinnacle of minor success in the Earth Clarity Mirror realm. Because of that half a month of studying alchemy, Xiao Chen's breakthrough came naturally. It did not take much effort for him to break through to minor success in the Earth Clarity Mirror realm. Moreover, it was extremely stable.
Xiao Chen easily broke through to the Small Success of the Earth Clear Mirror Realm. He was not in a hurry to leave the Hundred Spirits Pool. Instead, he stayed in the pool for another two days. He did not leave until he had completely stabilized his cultivation.
After leaving the Hundred Spirits Pool, he calculated the time. There was less than half a month left before the Five Elemental Dao Palace opened. In the remaining time, Xiao Chen planned to cultivate another Earth Rank Martial Skill. After all, the Tai 'e Sword Finger was the only Earth Rank Martial Skill he had. Moreover, although the Tai' e Sword Finger was powerful, it consumed a terrifying amount of Spiritual Energy. It could only be used as a killing move. As such, he naturally needed another Earth Rank Martial Skill to complement it.
He headed straight for the Sky Sword Peak's Martial Arts Hall. While Xiao Chen was making the final preparations for the Five Elemental Dao Palace, the other nine prodigies were doing the same.
As one of the Heavenly Chen Continent's Five Great Divine Sites, the opening of the Five Elemental Dao Palace would undoubtedly affect the hearts of countless people. Not to mention, those who could enter this time were all geniuses.
The war in the four regions gradually eased up and the demonic cultivators all went into hiding. The Heavenly Chen Continent once again seized the initiative. As such, everyone's eyes naturally fell upon the competition for the Five Elemental Dao Palace.
He went straight to the Sky Sword Peak's Martial Arts Hall. With the help of Nine Firmaments Palace, the Sky Sword Peak's Martial Arts Hall had a large number of Martial Skills. Additionally, the Ruler of the Nine Firmaments had specially bestowed several Heaven Rank and Earth Rank Martial Skills to the Sky Sword Peak. As such, the Martial Arts Hall became the most lively place in the Sky Sword Peak.
Every day, many disciples of the Sky Sword Peak would come to the Martial Arts Hall to choose a suitable Martial Skill. However, if they wanted to cultivate the Martial Arts Hall's Martial Arts Hall, they would need to pay a certain amount of Sect Contribution Points. Xiao Chen, on the other hand, did not need to do so. Any Martial Skill, even a Heaven Rank Martial Skill, could be cultivated by Xiao Chen at any time. He only needed to register with the Martial Arts Hall's Elder.
"Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother Xiao Chen."
After being greeted by everyone, Xiao Chen went straight to the Earth Rank Martial Skills area. In the huge Martial Arts Hall, the number of Basic Martial Skills was the highest. There were several hundred of them. The Profound Martial Skills were much fewer, only around a hundred. As for Earth Rank Martial Skills, they were even rarer, less than twenty. As for the top Heaven Rank Martial Skills, there were only three of them in the entire Sky Sword Peak's Martial Skills area. Those three were bestowed by the Ruler of the Nine Firmaments Palace. After all, as one of the nine peaks of Nine Firmaments Palace, if they did not even have a single Heaven Rank Martial Skill, they would become a laughing stock.
Xiao Chen did not look at the three Heaven Rank Martial Skills. He knew very well that with his current cultivation level, he could not practice Heaven Rank Martial Skills. He did not have enough spiritual energy in his body. Therefore, he did not bite off more than he could chew. Instead, he chose the Earth Rank Martial Skills.
The entire Earth Level Martial Skills area was not big, and there were not many people. One by one, they chose Earth Level Martial Skills that were suitable for themselves. As the Martial Skills collected by the Sky Sword Peak, naturally, all of them were sword techniques. There were more than twenty sword techniques, which made Xiao Chen feel a little dazzled. It really felt like there were too many things to see.
Fiery Dragon Kill.
Hundred Black Shadow Swords.
Clear Wind Blade.
Along the way, even Xiao Chen had to admit that every sword technique that could become an Earth Grade martial arts technique could be said to be incomparably exquisite, and its power was definitely not to be underestimated. However, after looking at more than ten sword techniques in a row, Xiao Chen still had not found one that he liked.
Either it was not suitable for him, he did not like it, or he did not like it. He always felt that something was missing.
Continuing to choose, Xiao Chen looked at the most eye-catching spot in the Earth Rank Martial Skills area. On a huge bookshelf, there was only one Earth Rank Martial Skill. With a glance, one could tell that this Earth Rank Martial Skill was extraordinary.
In fact, Xiao Chen had noticed this martial art technique from the very beginning. However, after seeing the notes on the side, Xiao Chen was a little hesitant. Now, it seemed that this Earth Level martial art technique was the most suitable for him.
It was called the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves. It was an Earth Rank Upper Rank Martial Skill. It was extremely powerful. When it was cultivated to the Perfection Stage, one sword strike would be like ten thousand waves sweeping towards the enemy, leaving them with nowhere to hide.
However, although the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves had unparalleled power, it was also extremely difficult to cultivate. The difficulty of cultivating it was comparable to Heaven Rank Martial Skills.
An Earth Rank Martial Skill had the difficulty of cultivating a Heaven Rank Martial Skill. Just this point alone was enough to make many people shrink back. The difficulty was too high, but the power was not as strong as a Heaven Rank Martial Skill. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was obviously not worth it.
The note at the side was very clear. It warned disciples who wanted to cultivate the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves to think thrice before doing so. They must not do anything useless.
Very few people dared to cultivate the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves. However, Xiao Chen did not care. He was confident that he could cultivate the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves before the Five Elements Dao Palace opened. Although the difficulty of cultivating the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves was comparable to a Heaven Rank Martial Skill, it was nothing to Xiao Chen with his talent. Without much hesitation, Xiao Chen directly chose the Three Layers of Overlapping Waves. He immediately registered with the Martial Skills Hall Elder and left with the manual.
