However, since Xiao Chen had already done it, he should not regret it. When one was young, one had to have some sharpness. Otherwise, as one grew older, that sharpness would completely disappear.
To a cultivator, if one was afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, being cautious and careful, thinking too much, one day, one would completely lose the sharpness of a cultivator.
"Hu chi!"
Just as Xiao Chen was drinking by himself, a white figure appeared in his vision. It was Bai, who had gone out, returning.
When Bai smelled the fragrance of the wine, she immediately jumped onto the stone table. Her watery eyes looked pitifully at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and took out another wine cup. After he filled it up, he placed it beside Bai. Bai immediately drank it happily.
After drinking a mouthful of wine, Xiao Chen rubbed Bai's head. He said somewhat ruefully, "From the beginning to the end, aside from the saber in my hand, only you can accompany me."
Footsteps came from outside again. The rhythm of these footsteps was very familiar to Xiao Chen. He did not even need to release his Spiritual Sense to know that it was Liu Suifeng.
Indeed, after a while, Liu Suifeng's figure appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
When Xiao Chen felt Liu Suifeng's aura, his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "Congratulations, when did you break through to Martial Saint?"
Liu Suifeng had just broken through the day before yesterday. When he heard Xiao Chen's congratulations, his face was filled with a smile. He said, "I just broke through not long ago. This is all thanks to your Flowing Light Flower. My comprehension ability has increased significantly. The bottleneck that has troubled me for almost a year is finally over."
Bottlenecks were like this. Sometimes, even if one thought about it hard, worrying about it day and night, thinking of all sorts of methods, they would still not be able to break through. It could be one year, two years, or even ten years. Some people might not even be able to break through in their entire lives.
However, with just a small breakthrough, the bottleneck would be broken immediately. Xiao Chen's Flowing Light Flower helped Liu Suifeng break through this breakthrough.
Liu Suifeng took out a pile of glowing Medial Grade Spirit Stones. He said enviously, "This is what my sister told me to bring to you. There are two hundred Medial Grade Spirit Stones here. Take a look."
Xiao Chen pocketed all the Spirit Stones in a flash and said, "By the way, where's your sister? Why isn't she here? "
Liu Suifeng thought of something and said, "I nearly forgot. My sister is in closed-door cultivation. She told me to tell you that she will not be able to help you operate the Ancient Absolute Formation for this period of time. She told you to cultivate bitterly first and stabilize your cultivation."
Xiao Chen's brows furrowed slightly. He found it strange that she had gone into seclusion all of a sudden. "That's no problem. Do you know why she went into seclusion?"
Xiao Chen, who had been comprehending the Ancient Absolute Saber Formation for a period of time, already had some idea of Listening to the Sword and Communicating With It. Now, he was just short of an opportunity to barely cross the threshold.
In the short term, it would not be a big deal if he did not go to the Ancient Absolute Saber Formation. However, Xiao Chen was more concerned about Liu Ruyue. Why was she in such a rush to enter seclusion?
Liu Suifeng shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. She looked like she had a lot on her mind, so it would not be good for me to ask. If there is nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
Xiao Chen urged him to stay, "Let's sit down and have a drink before you leave."
Liu Suifeng was about to agree when he saw Bai raise his head and glance at him. He immediately changed his words, "It's fine, it's fine. I have something urgent to do and need to leave immediately."
Lingyun Mountain Range, at a desolate waterfall in the back of the mountain, there was an unceasing waterfall falling from a high place.
Dark clouds churned in the sky, and the faint sound of muffled thunder rang out continuously.
Xiao Chen stood at the side of the small river formed by the waterfall. He drew the Lunar Shadow Saber in his hand, and there was a flash of saber light. Thunder roared in the sky.
Suddenly, boundless clouds appeared around Xiao Chen. A resplendent electric light suddenly lit up in the clouds, splitting the layers of clouds apart.
At the same time, the thunder in the sky seemed to be attracted by something, and it gave off a deafening roar. Countless splashes appeared on the raging river at the sound of this voice.
"Everlasting Startling Cloud!"
The instant all the clouds scattered, the snow-white blade of the Lunar Shadow Saber gave off a thin saber Qi. The saber Qi disappeared in a flash; it was so fast that it created an illusion.
Xiao Chen swung his saber upwards and shouted, "Explode!"
With a 'shua' sound, the thin saber Qi that had already dissipated in the air exploded in the air. The purple saber Qi was surrounded by countless electric lights. It was like a screen of water spreading out in the air.
"Pi li pa la!"
The electric light flickered continuously on the screen of saber Qi. At the end of the screen, the gushing waterfall was chopped in half by the saber. The electric light surrounding the screen of saber Qi lingered for a long time.
The gushing waterfall, which carried five thousand kilograms of force, was stopped by the horrifying electric energy. It just hung there in the air like it had stopped moving.
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and looked at the purple electric light that had yet to scatter. He said, "After the state of thunder is added to the Everlasting Startling Cloud, its might has increased by twenty percent."
Although the might of the Everlasting Startling Cloud had increased significantly, Xiao Chen did not reveal any joy on his face.
It had already been half a month since Xiao Chen came out of the sub-space. During this half a month, Xiao Chen had been digesting his gains in the sub-space.
Those two days of high-intensity battles could be said to be the most intense battle Xiao Chen had ever experienced, be it physically or mentally.
There was an unending stream of Demonic Beasts, as well as the elusive Demons who hid in the back and launched sneak attacks. It forced him to maintain a high level of concentration.
Two days of experiential training was much better than a month of experiential training.
After half a month, Xiao Chen had completely absorbed all the accumulations from this experiential training. His cultivation had stabilized at Inferior Grade Martial Saint; he could break through to peak Inferior Grade Martial Saint at any time.
Xiao Chen's comprehension of the state of thunder had also reached an even higher level. When he made a move, he could already condense the power of thunder.
With the aid of the state of thunder, the might of the state of clouds in the Everlasting Startling Cloud Saber Technique had increased. However, the state of mountains had stagnated.
This resulted in Xiao Chen being unable to comprehend the final move of the Lingyun Saber Technique. Now, even the state of the seventeenth move, Twisting Road Around Peak, was starting to show signs of instability.
Thus, although the might of the Everlasting Startling Cloud had increased significantly, Xiao Chen was unable to feel happy.
The electric light in the air started to slowly scatter. The surging waterfall started to flow again. The sound of splashing water resounded in Xiao Chen's ears once again.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "It looks like I really have to find a lightning-attributed Saber Technique. In the end, the rank of the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique is too low. It is no longer suitable for my current combat style. Furthermore, it is too straightforward; I am unable to adapt to changes in combat. "
After completing the mission in the sub-space, Xiao Chen could freely choose a Spirit Weapon, Martial Technique, or Battle Armor. What Xiao Chen chose was a Martial Technique.
In the past few days, Xiao Chen had taken some time to visit the libraries of the various peaks of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. However, the results disappointed him.
There were very few pure lightning-attributed Martial Techniques. Even if there were, their ranks would be very low. Xiao Chen did not care for them. Since there were none in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, he could only search for them at the foot of the mountain.
However, before that, he had to do something first. He had to lend the Heaven Ranked Roaming Dragon Saber to Yun Kexin. He did not know why, but Yun Kexin had not returned it yet.
Originally, Xiao Chen was prepared to ask her about it a week ago. After all, Xiao Chen had not reached the stage where he could casually give away a Heaven Ranked Spirit Weapon.
However, that was the crucial period for Xiao Chen's cultivation. Furthermore, given Yun Kexin's character, she would not go back on her word. Hence, he dragged it out until today.
Xiao Chen left Qingyun Peak and asked around for Yun Kexin's whereabouts in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. He did not delay and went to look for her with a calm expression.
Even though half a month had passed, Xiao Chen was not worried that Yun Kexin would keep the Roaming Dragon Saber for herself. His only guess was that she urgently needed the Roaming Dragon Saber, so she took it and used it temporarily.
Sometimes, a person's character could be seen from their temperament. Yun Kexin always gave off a calm and indifferent temperament. It was impossible for her to do such a despicable thing.
Furthermore, after interacting with her for a period of time, Xiao Chen was sure that this temperament was not fake.
"Are you saying that Yun Kexin left half a month ago?"
When Xiao Chen rushed to Yun Kexin's residence, he did not see her in person. There was only a maid cleaning the room. After asking around, he obtained this information.
Half a month ago? That is when we just came out of the sub-space, Xiao Chen thought to himself. What exactly happened for her to leave in such a rush?
When the maid saw the identity token hanging at Xiao Chen's waist, her eyes lit up and she asked, "That's right, are you Qingyun Peak's Young Master Ye?"
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "That's right, I am Qingyun Peak's Young Master Ye. Here is my identity token."
The maid took out a note and smiled, "That's right. Before Miss Yun left, she left a note. She said that if someone from Qingyun Peak was looking for her, I should hand it to it.
"It has been more than half a month. You have not come. I nearly forgot."
Xiao Chen received the note and slowly opened it. He read it in his heart, Brother Ye, there is an urgent matter at home. I need to borrow your Roaming Dragon Saber.
This matter happened very suddenly. I am unable to tell you personally. I hope you can forgive me. There are some Spirit Stones under the bed. Consider them as compensation for borrowing your Heavenly Weapon. I will thank you in person another day. I am very sorry.
Xiao Chen smiled gently and burned the note. Indeed, it was as he had guessed. Yun Kexin did indeed have an urgent matter and needed to borrow the Roaming Dragon Saber.
Xiao Chen looked at the maid before him and smiled, "Did you forget? Miss Yun still has something she wants you to pass to me."
The maid was somewhat confused. She thought for a while and said, "Yes, yes. I remember now. There is a box under the bed. It is very heavy. I do not know what it is. Miss instructed me not to open it. After a long time, I forgot about it."
The maid led Xiao Chen to Yun Kexin's bedroom. She found the box under the bed. However, even after using all her strength, she could not move it at all.
Xiao Chen quickly stopped her and moved the box himself. However, he did not open the box. He extended his Spiritual Sense into it and discovered it was filled with piles of Inferior Grade Spirit Stones. After a rough count, there were at least five thousand of them.
Yun Kexin was really generous. She casually placed five thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones under the bed. Was she not afraid that someone would steal them?
With so many Inferior Grade Spirit Stones, it was a windfall. After Xiao Chen placed them in his Universe Ring, he left the place.
