The news of the new inner sect disciple Chen Qingzong defeating the Hundred Academy disciple Liu Qingyang quickly spread throughout the inner sect and even the outer sect.
"Chen Qingzong?"
"Who is this person?"
"A new inner sect disciple actually defeated Liu Qingyang. Liu Qingyang is a disciple of the Hundred Academy and is ranked in the top 30 among the inner sect disciples."
This news made all the inner sect disciples feel incredulous. Many of them thought it was just a rumor, but the people who saw the battle with their own eyes swore that it was the truth.
Immediately, the reason why Chen Qingzong would challenge Liu Qingyang was also dug out by others.
"Liu Qingyang is really an idiot." The feminine-looking Hundred Academy disciple smiled in disdain. He was blinded by greed and ended up kicking an iron plate. Not only was he injured, but he also became a joke among the inner sect disciples.
"Although Liu Qingyang is a bit stupid, this new inner sect disciple is a bit too much. He's already so restless." Another Hundred Academy disciple spoke neither slowly nor quickly. His tone was filled with an intense pressure. "Such a person should be suppressed and made to know his place."
The third Hundred Academy disciple ate a mouthful of meat and muttered, "Suppress? Are you going to make a move?"
"Why not?" The second Hundred Academy disciple coldly snorted.
The three of them were all stronger than Liu Qingyang.
"Don't forget, he is a new inner sect disciple. Even if he defeated Liu Qingyang, he still has three months of protection."
"Then we'll give him three more months. Let's see how he overturns the heavens."
…
"New inner sect disciple Chen Qingzong defeated Liu Qingyang …" When Elder Lin heard the news, he was startled at first, then he began to laugh. He was the inner sect elder who was in charge of the outer sect competition. "Hahahaha, I knew it. This child didn't use his full strength during the outer sect competition."
"The early stage of the eighth level of the Foundation Realm. If he used the Small Breakthrough Pill to break through, he would be at the peak of the seventh level of the Foundation Realm. A 15-year-old outer sect disciple reaching the peak of the seventh level of the Foundation Realm is indeed shocking." Another inner sect elder was also shocked.
"Sect Master, I think our Blue Cloud Sect should pay enough attention to Chen Qingzong." Elder Lin continued to speak, fighting for Chen Qingzong's benefits.
If the Sect paid attention to him, the result would be different.
The Blue Cloud Sect's Sect Master, Li Qingji, pondered for a moment and said, "This child will be included in the list of important people, just like Yang Chaofan. However, whether he will receive important attention or not will be dependent on his performance."
The so-called performance was based on one's talent, whether it was like a shooting star passing by and vanishing into the crowd. There were many people like this. At the beginning, their performance was very outstanding, but as time passed, it was as if they had lost their spirituality, becoming mediocre and eventually vanishing into the crowd.
Secondly, it would depend on whether they were loyal to the Blue Cloud Sect or not.
When the Blue Cloud Sect nurtured disciples, they had to nurture people who were loyal to the Sect. Otherwise, no matter how talented they were, if they betrayed the Sect after being nurtured by the Sect, it would only bring harm to the sect.
The Blue Cloud Sect's approach was not strange; it was the same for any force. If a force wanted to continue to grow, they needed people who were loyal. It was best if they had outstanding talent.
If they had to choose between outstanding talent and loyalty, almost all forces would choose the latter.
To put it more directly, if you weren't loyal, why would they spend resources to nurture you?
Elder Lin nodded and said, "I believe this child should be able to do it."
After all, Elder Lin valued Chen Zong a lot, so he naturally hoped the same.
If there were no accidents, Yang Chaofan would become the fourth true disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect soon. He hoped that Chen Qingzong could also become a true disciple.
True disciples were also inner sect disciples, but they were inner sect disciples who were highly valued by the Blue Cloud Sect. They were already above the other inner sect disciples.
Now, there were only three true disciples in the Blue Cloud Sect.
…
In the Hundred Academy, Chen Zong could clearly feel the purer and richer Heaven Earth Yuan Qi fluctuations.
Although the Foundation Establishment realm could not directly absorb Heaven Earth Yuan Qi to cultivate, being in the purer and richer Heaven Earth Yuan Qi would also nourish one's body.
One had to know that the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment realm was to develop one's potential. The True Qi in one's body was naturally transformed from the energy contained in one's body. Transformation would consume True Qi, and consumption would require replenishment.
The method of replenishment was usually through eating.
Eating various foods that contained rich energy or elixirs.
The rich and pure Heaven Earth Yuan Qi could also slowly nourish one's body and increase the energy contained in one's body. It was a disguised form of assistance for cultivation.
After calming down, Chen Zong took out an oval-shaped green jade slip. It was the Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade.
Chen Zong had used three Qingyun Sword martial tokens to exchange for a cultivation technique, a sword technique, and a movement technique at the Qingyun Sword Martial Tower. He had obtained three Technique Relaying Spiritual Jades, which recorded the contents of the cultivation technique, sword technique, and movement technique.
This was a one-time use Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade. After receiving one Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade, the contents recorded inside would disappear to prevent it from being leaked.
Foundation Establishment cultivators did not have a spiritual sense, so they could only place the Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade between their eyebrows. However, Chen Zong had a spiritual sense, so there was no need for that. He only needed to use his spiritual sense to penetrate the Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade.
After his spiritual sense penetrated, the information in the Technique Relaying Spiritual Jade immediately poured into Chen Zong's sea of consciousness. Chen Zong received it without any burden.
Heavenly Cloud Illusory Mist Technique!
Chen Zong had chosen a mortal supreme-grade cultivation technique from the Qingyun Sword Martial Tower.
Switching cultivation techniques was not a trivial matter. One had to slowly convert the Qi of the original cultivation technique into the new one. During this stage, one's strength would be affected and drop significantly.
Fortunately, new inner sect disciples had a three-month protection period. During this period, they would not be disturbed. Chen Zong could focus on switching cultivation techniques. For Chen Zong, three months should be enough.
After spending some time, Chen Zong finished comprehending the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud and began cultivating.
The Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique, a mortal supreme-grade cultivation technique, had a total of eight levels, one more than the White Mist Technique. In addition, every breakthrough in the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique would open four auxiliary meridians, one more than the White Mist Technique. Therefore, at the same level, the Qi cultivated from the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique would be denser and purer than the White Mist Technique.
The White Mist True Qi constantly flowed through his meridians, following the four meridians of the first level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique.
It just so happened that these four meridians were all opened by the White Mist Technique. Before long, Chen Zong had completed the first level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique.
Carefully feeling it, the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud True Qi of the first level was much purer and denser than the White Mist True Qi of the first level; it was about three times purer.
A difference of three times was not too great. But as one continued to cultivate the cultivation technique, the difference would become increasingly great.
He continued to cultivate. The Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique's second level required four meridians to be opened, which was also included in the White Mist Technique. Therefore, it wasn't long before the second level was completed, and more White Mist True Qi was converted into Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud True Qi.
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. Chen Zong had also completed the fourth level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique. Whether it was the density or purity of his True Qi, it was clearly superior to the fourth level of the White Mist Technique. It was comparable to the fifth level of the White Mist Technique. Of course, this referred to the White Mist Technique without a martial intent.
The fifth level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique was not so easy to cultivate because it required opening new auxiliary meridians.
Fortunately, Chen Zong still had some White Mist True Qi in his body.
Using his powerful spiritual sense, he mobilized his True Qi and poured it into a blocked auxiliary meridian. Like a hot knife through butter, he opened it up.
Auxiliary meridians were opened one by one, and the fifth level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique was completed.
Two days … three days … four days …
On the fifth day, Chen Zong had completed the sixth level of the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique. At this point, all of his White Mist True Qi had been converted into Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud True Qi. The advantage was that the purity and density of his True Qi had increased significantly. The disadvantage was that his cultivation had dropped.
Yes, Chen Zong's cultivation had dropped from the peak of the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm to the late eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
However, this drop was only temporary and would quickly recover. Although his cultivation had dropped, his strength was not affected at all.
Three months!
Chen Zong had set a goal for himself. He wanted to master the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique, a top-grade mortal sword art, and a top-grade mortal movement technique in three months. At the very least, he wanted to reach the trance stage. It would be best if he could break through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
If other people knew about Chen Zong's thoughts, they would definitely think that he was crazy.
It was not easy to completely change to a top-grade mortal cultivation technique in three months. Not to mention, he wanted to cultivate a top-grade mortal sword art and a top-grade mortal movement technique to the trance stage. This was even more despairing.
Chen Zong prepared a lot of food for himself. After that, he put up the sign of seclusion and did not accept any visitors.
It had to be said that the cultivation environment of the Hundred Academy was indeed better. Every day, Chen Zong could feel his True Qi increasing.
In addition to cultivating the Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique, Chen Zong also began to cultivate a sword art. The sword art was called Wind Slayer. Every strike was very sharp and powerful.
The movement technique was called Thousand Mile Mist.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, one month had passed. The white mist around Chen Zong's body expanded and contracted. His True Qi became even purer and more vigorous. The Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud Technique had reached the seventh level, and his cultivation had returned to the peak of the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The seventh level Illusory Mist Heavenly Cloud True Qi was much stronger than the seventh level White Mist True Qi. It was not inferior to the White Mist True Qi under the martial intent realm.
He stood up and drew his sword. The sword light flashed as if it could split everything in half.
Wind Slayer Sword Art!
After cultivating for a while, Chen Zong had already cultivated the Wind Slayer Sword Art to the Large Success stage. He could fully display its power.
One sword strike after another, over and over again. Suddenly, the sword aura changed in an instant. A mysterious aura spread out, and every sword strike became more agile.
Trance!
For other cultivators, it was difficult to enter the Trance stage, but for Chen Zong, it was not difficult. After all, top-grade mortal cultivation was not much more difficult than high-grade mortal cultivation.
Of course, this was only relative.
If Chen Zong was given a sword art that surpassed the mortal level, it would not be easy for him to reach the Trance stage, let alone the Perfection stage. As for martial intent, it would be even more difficult to comprehend.
