Cough!
The auctioneer cleared his throat, calming the crowd down before yelling, "This profound sword attack is called the Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Attack. The starting price is twenty-five thousand top rank spirit stones, and each increment must be no less than one thousand top rank spirit stones. The bidding begins now!"
"Twenty-six thousand!"
"Twenty-seven thousand!"
"Thirty thousand!"
…
"Thirty-five thousand!"
In almost a blink of an eye, the price had shot up from twenty-five thousand to thirty-five thousand. It should be known that these were upper grade spirit stones, not mid grade ones. Upper grade spirit stones were extremely rare. Among the Sea of Soul Realm warriors he had killed, the most he had was only ten thousand, and the least was only a few thousand. A lot of Sea of Soul Realm warriors did not even have enough upper grade spirit stones for their own cultivation. Therefore, they could only explore and search for treasures, then sell them in auctions to earn a huge amount of upper grade spirit stones.
Ye Chen did not bid in the end like before. Instead, he raised up his hand and said, "Forty thousand!"
The auctioneer glanced at Ye Chen's VIP room and said with a smile, "Forty thousand top rank soul stones, is there anyone else who wants to bid higher?"
"Forty-two thousand!"
In another VIP room, a sword artist in grey robes raised up his hand to increase the price.
"Alright! Forty-two thousand! Is there anyone else?"
"Forty-five thousand!"
"Forty-six thousand!"
Ye Chen's expression did not change at all. "Fifty thousand!"
As Ye Chen's voice was heard, most of the sword artists gave up on bidding. Fifty thousand top rank spirit stones was not a small number. In fact, if one did not kill other Sea of Souls Realm warriors, it would be impossible to gather fifty thousand top rank spirit stones. Killing a Sea of Souls Realm warrior was not a game. If one was not careful, one might be killed instead, unless one was powerful enough and had an overwhelming advantage. Even so, it would still be hard to guarantee that the other person was not hiding their power or hiding their killing ace.
Therefore, without one hundred percent confidence, no one would try to kill someone and rob them.
"Fifty-two thousand!"
The sword artist in grey robes was not scared by the price.
"Fifty-five thousand."
Ye Chen was not in urgent need of top rank spirit stones right now, so he would not care even if he spent them all.
The sword artist frowned, "Fifty-eight thousand!"
"Sixty thousand!"
Sixty thousand! The sword artist squinted his eyes, his expression dark as he stopped talking.
"70,000!"
Just when everyone thought that Ye Chen had won, the price rose by another 10,000. The one who made the bid was not the grey-robed swordsman, but an old and sharp voice.
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows. "80,000!"
"85,000!"
Ye Chen was about to continue raising the price when a voice rang out, "Little guy, let's call it a day! Give me some face. "
It would be impossible for Ye Chen to give up on his Gold Resonant Radiance sword attack, since the gold mentality was extremely important to him. The sooner he could train it to its limit, the sooner he would be able to carry out his training plan. Therefore, after hearing the voice, he said lightly, "Ninety thousand!"
"Hmph!"
This price had obviously exceeded the bottom line of the bidder. He could only snort coldly and give up bidding.
"90,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones going once, 90,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones going twice, 90,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones going thrice. Sold. Congratulations to the friend in VIP room 48."
The auctioneer hammered his hammer three times, carrying a satisfied smile on his face.
Soon, a staff member of the auction house brought over the jade letter for the Gold Resonant Radiance sword attack. Ye Chen paid him five million mid grade spirit stones and forty thousand upper grade spirit stones before taking the jade letter.
Following that, the atmosphere in the auction house became more and more intense. Every single item was extremely rare, and there was no way to buy it. It was not until the sun had set that the auction finally reached its climax.
…
Inside the secret room, the light was still on.
Ye Chen let out a breath slowly as he held the jade letter in his palm and poured his Zhen yuan into it.
Wooo!
A picture appeared in his mind: on a boundless plain, a sword artist with an indistinct face took out his longsword. The longsword shone with a bright gold light, which kept on vibrating. Within a blink of an eye, it seemed to have vibrated for thousands of times. Even the space seemed to have resonated with it, creating ripples like water.
The sword artist waved the longsword in his hand, and a bottomless ravine appeared on the plain without a sound. All of the mud seemed to have evaporated, disappearing into thin air.
"High frequency and sharpness … This is like a super electric saw!" Ye Chen could not help but feel a chill run down his spine. A normal person could cut through steel with an electric saw, but this Gold Resonant Radiance sword attack was powered by the gold profound, which was way more powerful than an electric saw.
Turning his body, the sword artist locked onto Ye Chen and threw out another sword attack.
That endless gold light filled up Ye Chen's sight. Ye Chen felt a sharp pain in his eyes, as if his vision had been cut open. Tears started to flow out of his eyes, but he did not feel anything mentally.
"Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Attack, low rank profound sword attack, focusing on high frequency …"
As the information was reorganized, the training manual for the Gold Resonant Radiance Sword appeared in Ye Chen's mind. Just as he had expected, this sword attack that contained the gold mentality was indeed powerful. Once the sword attack was thrown out, the Zhen yuan and sword qi would vibrate continuously, which could easily cut through the defense of the same level.
"Once I train the Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Attack to a certain level, even if I reach the Sea of Souls Realm, I would not have to worry about not having enough ace attacks anymore!"
In terms of sword attacks, Ye Chen had three ace attacks, which were the Sky Thunder Cut, the Reverse Sky Thunder Cut, and the Amaranthine Nature. Although the Sky Thunder Cut was only twenty to thirty percent of a profound martial art, Ye Chen had learned a lot from Jing Aoxuan. Once he infused the ninth movement of the Sky Cloud Sword Art into the Sky Thunder Cut, it would become a real low rank profound sword attack. Of course, if he did not learn the thunder profound, then the Sky Thunder Cut would not be perfected, since profound sword attacks needed the profound to be used.
The Reverse Sky Thunder Cut was the twin brother of the Sky Thunder Cut; the two had completely different personalities. One attacked forward, while the other attacked backward. One had to admit that the latter was a bit more powerful and full of killing intent. With a reverse sword attack, not only could it reflect the attack, it could also catch the opponent off guard.
The most horrifying thing was that the Reverse Sky Thunder Cut would become more powerful as the Sky Thunder Cut got stronger. It would always be on top of the Sky Thunder Cut, but it could not be without the Sky Thunder Cut. Without the Sky Thunder Cut, the Reverse Sky Thunder Cut would lose the chance to improve, and would never be able to move forward.
As for the Amaranthine Nature, it was even more powerful than the Sky Thunder Cut and the Reverse Sky Thunder Cut combined. The Green Lotus Sword Art was a top rank Earth Realm sword art, and the power of the last movement had shocked even Ye Chen. It was equivalent to a fifty percent profound martial art, which was also why he had spent a long time to learn the ninth movement.
Right now, the Amaranthine Nature was definitely Ye Chen's ultimate ace attack, and it could not be changed.
Besides the three top sword movements, Ye Chen's body also had a lotus heart sword qi, which was extremely fast and had a powerful penetrative power. Judging on its power, it would not be any weaker than the Amaranthine Nature. Of course, it was not as mysterious as the Amaranthine Nature.
The lotus heart sword qi would recover once every half an hour, and it would be able to change the whole situation in a close combat.
If he could learn the Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Art as well, he would not need to learn too much. As long as he could learn it to fifty percent, Ye Chen's overall power would still continue to increase. When facing the enemy, he would have more choices to choose from, and more chances to kill his opponent. It would be very meaningful.
…
Ye Chen's yard was not that big in the Thunder city, but there were a lot of scenic spots inside. There were fake mountains, green water, pavilions, gardens, and even a bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest was filled with a gentle breeze, and it looked very green.
On the small path in the bamboo forest, Ye Chen stood there quietly with both of his hands holding the Destruction sword. In front of him was a long spear that had been stabbed into the ground. The long spear was shining brightly, giving off the vibration of a mid-rank great weapon.
Wooo!
The blue light on the surface of the Destruction Sword vibrated as Ye Chen threw out a sword attack on the long spear.
With a clanging sound, thousands of sparks shot out. If it were not for Ye Chen blocking it with his Zhen yuan aura, the whole bamboo forest would have been destroyed.
"Not good. This sword attack has only vibrated two hundred and forty times within a second, which is barely ten percent. It would not be able to make a dent on the spear."
Ye Chen shook his head. After training for almost three days, his Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Art had made some progress, but it was still far from the requirement. His short-term goal would be thirty percent, or even forty percent.
"Yeah, the metal is vibrating!"
Inadvertently, Ye Chen realized that although the long spear had stopped vibrating, it was still vibrating at a high frequency. Since the vibration was so small, it was hard to notice it with the naked eye.
Chin!
Ye Chen threw out another sword attack. The long spear vibrated quickly, but the vibration was getting smaller and smaller. Eventually, it turned into a vibration, and the air was groaning.
"The mentality of gold, vibration, particles, combination … Yes, it should be like this, the mentality of letting nature take its course. Before, I was too focused on it, and the improvement was too small. I did not have much comprehension either."
The hardest part of training a martial art was to find the right way. If the way was right, then the training would be much easier. But if the way was wrong, then it would be a waste of time and effort.
Chin! Chin! Chin!
Finding the right way, Ye Chen's mind was filled with more and more ideas. He continued to wave his Destruction Sword, attacking the long spear at a high frequency.
Five days!
Ten days!
Half a month!
One month!
Ye Chen had spent a whole month training his Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Art. His comprehension was like a flood that could not be stopped. Meanwhile, more and more cracks appeared on the long spear, and the broken parts were getting sharper and sharper.
"Although the metal is a solid, the tiny particles inside are actually moving as well. The vibration can make the metal even more sturdy and more aggressive. However, I have to control it well. Otherwise, the metal will break down, and the power of the Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Art will not be able to be used. No matter if it is the metal or the gold mentality, it is the same principle."
Ye Chen fell into a strange state. He seemed to be able to feel the life of the Destruction Sword in his hand, as well as its joy. In this kind of state, the training of the gold mentality came naturally. It was much easier than when he was training the thunder mentality or the wood mentality. Perhaps, he should have trained the gold mentality earlier, since it was a perfect match for him.
Whoo!
The Destruction Sword in his hand started to vibrate, and the Zhen yuan that had been poured into it started to vibrate as well. The sword light that was being spat out was extremely horrifying, as if it could cut through space itself.
Without opening his eyes, Ye Chen took a step forward and waved out a sword attack.
Crack!
The mid rank long spear was cut in half. The cut was as smooth as a mirror, and the edge was sharp enough to cut through steel.
However, Ye Chen did not even feel the slightest bit of hindrance when he waved out that sword attack. It was as if he had not cut through a mid rank long spear, but a piece of wood.
