With the establishment of the branch, Jun Changxiao had spies all over the eight cities in Azure Sun County. Following which, he began to focus on his cultivation.
Although he was busy with recruiting disciples and destroying the Drizzle Building, he didn't neglect his martial arts. Whenever he was free, he would eat Qi Gathering Pills and cultivate Body Metamorphose Scripture to strengthen the cyclone in his dantian.
The Spirit Array could only be used by disciples. With the help of high-grade Spiritual Roots and pills, his cultivation speed was quite fast.
After handing over the sect's affairs, he cultivated steadily for two days and successfully became a ninth-grade Martial Disciple from an eighth-grade Martial Disciple.
"Bang!"
He came to the training room and punched the testing machine. The result showed that his strength was 25,000 pounds.
"Bang!"
Jun Changxiao gathered the Exploding Fist and tested it. The result showed that his strength was 30,000 pounds.
"Not bad." Jun Changxiao said.
"Not bad?"
The leader of the Long Blade Sect, who was also a ninth-grade Martial Disciple, only had a strength of 14,000. If he heard this, he would be so embarrassed that he would commit suicide.
Jun Changxiao was so strong because of his Spiritual Roots, Spirit Shaping Pill, and Shaping Room. Naturally, he was much stronger than ordinary Martial Disciples.
After becoming a ninth-grade Martial Disciple, his next goal was to become a peak Martial Disciple and a Martial Master!
Jun Changxiao was not satisfied with the current situation. He had to make himself and his disciples stronger within a year. Then, he would go to the Sacred Spring Sect to spar.
"Oh right."
"There's still the Haoqi Sect."
"I'll let Qingyang and the others cultivate for a month before going to this sect."
In Jun Changxiao's opinion, although challenging a fifth-grade sect was very difficult, it was also a good opportunity to spread the name of Iron Bone.
As for the Haoqi Sect, it was just an insignificant monster on the way to challenge a boss.
Yes.
He couldn't underestimate it.
Give it some respect and consider it an elite monster.
"Creak."
The door of the Shaping Room opened and Ye Xingchen slid out.
Jun Changxiao said, "I heard from Qingyang that you've become a Martial Disciple two days ago?"
"Yes." Ye Xingchen said.
"Have I cultivated Slash?"
"Yes."
"How do you feel?"
Ye Xingchen was silent for a moment, then said, "Very strong."
For a Martial Emperor to be able to give an evaluation of 'very strong', he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Jun Changxiao patted him on the shoulder and said, "As long as you cultivate well and treat the Iron Bone as your home, there will be more and more powerful martial arts like this in the future."
As for whether or not he would be able to create more Martial Skills in a short period of time, he could not be sure for the time being. However, he had to brag about it first.
Ye Xingchen's eyes lit up.
[Self Slash] was the most special Spiritual Energy type martial skill he had ever seen since he started practicing martial arts. There were many more powerful martial skills like this, so he was looking forward to them!
"Sect Leader."
Ye Xingchen said, "Zhou Hong is a genius with an extremely high aptitude in the Way of the Sword. If you don't want to waste his aptitude, let him focus on the cultivation of the Way of the Sword."
Jun Changxiao rubbed his chin and said with a smile, "You mean, our Iron Bone can't accommodate such a genius sword cultivator?"
Ye Xingchen said, "Sword cultivators are one in ten thousand. Although our Iron Bone has Rupturing Fist and Self Slash, we don't have any Sword Skills. We will only be a burden to him here."
Jun Changxiao crossed his arms and said with a smile, "You seem to know a lot."
"…" Ye Xingchen was silent.
He suddenly realized that he should just cultivate on his own. Why should he worry about Zhou Hong? It would be bad if his reincarnation identity was exposed.
"Shua!"
While he was thinking, a secret manual was thrown over.
"Take this Sword Skill and cultivate it first. Whether or not you can comprehend it will depend on your luck." Jun Changxiao said.
Sword Skill?
Ye Xingchen looked at the secret manual with "Ling Jian Divine Technique" written on it and said with disdain, "It's named after a god. How arrogant."
He turned to the first page and saw the words left behind. He sneered and said, "Since when did our Falling Star Continent have such a person as the Solitary Sword Emperor? It's obviously made up."
It was normal that he had not heard of it. The introduction of the item said "some", and the word "some" meant that it was not the Falling Star Continent.
Ye Xingchen turned to the second page. When he saw the contents of the Sword Skill, the disdain on his face gradually disappeared and was replaced by shock.
"This is …"
He could not help but say, "Divine Sword Skill!"
Although Night Emperor's cultivation was not there, he could still roughly judge the quality of the Martial Skill. After all, he had cultivated many in his previous life.
As he continued to study, his expression changed again and again. He said, "This Sword Skill is probably not weaker than the Nine Heavens Cloud Splitting Sword Technique that I cultivated in the past!"
Back at his residence.
Ye Xingchen did not comprehend the Taixuan Sutra and the Body Metamorphosis Scripture. He focused all his attention on the Ling Jian Divine Technique.
After a night of comprehension, although he had memorized the Sword Skill, he knew that even if he learned it, he would not be able to unleash its true power without high attainments in the Sword Dao.
Jun Changxiao agreed with this point.
Although he had learned the Sword Skill in the cave, due to his limited aptitude, the power he could unleash was not as strong as the Nine Forms of the Wave Stacking Sword Technique.
Although a Divine Sword Skill was powerful, to unleash its true power, one needed to meet the right person at the right time.
Ye Xingchen looked at Zhou Hong standing on the training ground outside the window. He muttered, "This kid has comprehended the Fast Realm. If he cultivates the Sword Skill, not only will he be able to unleash its full power, but his Sword Dao will also benefit."
Night Emperor thought that it was a waste for a Sword Dao seedling to cultivate in Iron Bone. In the end, Sect Master Jun took out a Divine Sword Skill. This was a slap to his face.
…
The next day.
After the Ai Clan auctioned off the Healing Pills, the members of the Drizzle Hall planted in the city immediately sent over the latest information.
"What?" Jun Changxiao stood up with a 'whoosh'. His eyes widened as he asked, "How much were they auctioned off?"
Li Luoqiu said, "Ten Healing Pills were auctioned off for a total of six million taels of silver. The average price was six hundred thousand taels of silver per pill."
Jun Changxiao confirmed that he did not mishear. The corner of his mouth twitched violently as he said, "A single Healing Pill can be sold for such a high price. As expected, poverty has limited my imagination."
Li Luoqiu said, "The major sects are definitely not fools. If they are willing to spend such a large amount of money to buy Healing Pills, then there must be some kind of miraculous effect."
"Oh, right." She said, "The information also said that the Ai Clan Head left the Ai Clan after the auction ended and is heading towards our Iron Bone."
"Sect Master." At this moment, Li Qingyang came to report, "The Ai Clan Head has come to visit again."
Li Luoqiu was startled. "Again?"
"Please come in."
"Yes."
Li Luoqiu said, "The Ai Clan specializes in Healing Pills and has many connections. They are quite famous in Azure Sun County. Sect Master, are you not going to personally welcome them?"
"There's no need for that." Jun Changxiao said.
Li Luoqiu muttered, "As a Sect Master, I am quite arrogant."
Not long after, the Ai Clan Head walked into the main hall. He cupped his hands and said politely with a smile, "Sect Master Jun, long time no see. Your cultivation has improved again."
"Eh?" He looked at Li Luoqiu and asked, "This is?"
"Li Luoqiu, the Hall Master of Iron Bone." Jun Changxiao introduced.
He already has a Hall Master? His development is really fast!
Ai Shang hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "So it's Hall Master Li. My apologies, my apologies."
Li Luoqiu was stunned.
Even if he went to a sixth- or seventh-rate sect, the elders would still treat him well. Why was the Ai Clan Head so humble when he came to Iron Bone?
Suddenly, she remembered that the Sect Master had said that he had a good relationship with the Ai Clan Head. It seemed that it was true. As for that bottle of Healing Pills, could it be …
Li Luoqiu's expression froze. After a while, she said in surprise, "The Healing Pills are also real?"
