107: Chapter 105: Sect Guardian Supreme Skill (First Update) 107: Chapter 105: Sect Guardian Supreme Skill (First Update) “What?

Seven Veins Middle Grade?

Meng Xiaoyue’s bloodline talent is as high as Seven Veins Middle Grade?”

Even though he had some guesses, when Liao Feibai uttered it, Ye Zhen was still taken aback.

“Seven Veins Middle Grade, that’s a Heavenly Vein,” Caiyi said.

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so anxious to come and discuss with you about taking Meng Xiaoyue to the Yin Mountain Canyon to receive her inheritance,” Liao Feibai said.

“Heavenly Vein, a Heavenly Vein of Seven Veins Middle Grade, once exposed, Meng Xiaoyue will attract widespread attention, making it even more difficult to go to Yin Mountain Canyon for the inheritance.”

After the Meng Family incident, regarding Meng Xiaoyue’s matters, as well as the final instructions from Elder Meng, Ye Zhen only told Liao Feibai, not even mentioning it to the Sect Leader.

By Liao Feibai’s estimation, the spirit light that soared over Yinshan County before Meng Chuan’s death could likely be a special inheritance spirit light, needing Meng Xiaoyue herself to reach Yin Mountain Canyon to complete this inheritance.

Liao Feibai came now to discuss with Ye Zhen about preparing to take Meng Xiaoyue to the Yin Mountain Canyon to complete this inheritance.

“What is a Heavenly Vein?

Changsun Ran is just Top-Grade Six Veins, and Meng Xiaoyue is just Seven Veins Middle Grade Bloodline Talent,” Ye Zhen expressed some confusion.

“What do you mean just Seven Veins Middle Grade?

Boy, being called a Heavenly Vein isn’t for nothing!” When Liao Feibai’s eyes widened, he began to explain the concept of Heavenly Veins to Ye Zhen.

A Heavenly Vein was originally meant to signify a bloodline favored even by the heavens.

Later, the martial artists of the True Profound Continent gradually began to call those whose bloodlines reached seven veins or above, Heavenly Veins.

On the Zhixuan Continent, the martial artist’s bloodline talent is categorized, from one to three veins as Human Veins, the lowest potential category among martial artists, with most hardly able to step into the True Essence Realm.

Originally, Ye Zhen’s bloodline talent also fell under Human Veins.

Bloodline talents of four veins up to Top-Grade Six Veins are called Earth Veins.

Currently, the vast majority of the martial artists on the True Profound Continent possess Earth Veins Bloodline talents.

When bloodline talents reach between Seven Veins and Nine Veins Top-Grade, it is called a Heavenly Vein.

Heavenly Veins are exceedingly rare, and in ten million people, you might not even find one Heavenly Pulse Warrior.

Legend says that above Heavenly Veins, the even rarer Ten Veins Bloodline talents are known as Holy Veins.

“Instructor Liao, what are the benefits of a Heavenly Vein then?” Ye Zhen asked.

“Ever heard of the Vein Forging Realm?” Liao Feibai asked.

Ye Zhen nodded, “After the Spirit Transformation Realm comes the Soul Sea Realm, and after the Soul Sea Realm comes the Vein Forging Realm.

I heard that the Sect Leader is in the Vein Forging Realm?”

“Exactly.

Over the past hundred years, the Black Water Kingdom has seen three hundred Soul Sea Realm powerhouses, but only the Sect Leader has stepped into the Vein Forging Realm,” Liao Feibai said.

“Three hundred Soul Sea Realm powerhouses and only the Sect Leader stepped into the Vein Forging Realm?” Ye Zhen was greatly surprised.

“Yes, and this ratio might be even higher!

However, Heavenly Pulse Warriors, with their heaven-favored bloodline, as long as they don’t die young, will one hundred percent manage to break through the Soul Sea and step into the Vein Forging Realm.”

After a pause, Liao Feibai said, “In other words, a Heavenly Pulse Warrior is a future Vein Forging Realm powerhouse!”

Hiss!

As Ye Zhen inhaled sharply, he immediately understood the serious implications.

If Meng Xiaoyue’s Seven Veins Middle Grade Heavenly Vein talent got out, not to mention the Water Sect, even the countries of the Black Water Kingdom, the Gu’an Kingdom, and even the leaders of the Southern Barbarian Tribe would lose sleep.

A single Vein Forging Realm powerhouse could sit in Black Water Kingdom and prevent other countries from daring to invade easily; if another one appeared, they’d have to consider whether Black Water Kingdom might invade them instead.

“Then this?

It’s not the same if you just cover it up?

Just have Meng Xiaoyue avoid showing it off in public?” Ye Zhen suggested anxiously with a frown.

Liao Feibai laughed bitterly, “The problem is, it can’t be hidden!”

“Meng Xiaoyue is not only a Seven Veins Middle Grade Heavenly Pulse Warrior, but like you, also has an Innate Pure Body, with even purer essence than yours.

In just over six months, Meng Xiaoyue’s cultivation has leaped from the First Stage of Blood Training directly to the True Essence Second Realm, and I estimate that within another half year, Meng Xiaoyue’s cultivation could reach the peak of the True Essence Fifth Realm.

For a Heavenly Pulse Warrior, advancing to the Soul Summoning Realm isn’t too difficult.

And when a martial artist enters into the Soul Summoning Realm, it will induce a celestial phenomenon.

By then, her Seven Veins Heavenly Pulse will be exposed, impossible to cover up.”

As Liao Feibai spoke, Ye Zhen’s mouth had already gaped wide open in shock.

In six months’ time, with normal cultivation, to break from the First Stage of Blood Training directly to the True Essence Second Realm…

this pace left Ye Zhen speechless.

Comparing people is truly infuriating.

If you don’t count Ye Zhen’s first year of cultivation, then from breaking from the First Stage of Blood Training to the True Essence Fourth Realm also only took him slightly over a year.

But during that year, with the help of listening to the Beast Language and the Mirage Dragon Pearl, Ye Zhen had almost continuous fortunate encounters to achieve these results.

But for Meng Xiaoyue, just cultivating in the mountains for half a year, she…

“What?

Feeling devastated?”

Seeing Ye Zhen’s expression, Liao Feibai burst into laughter.

This laugh, as if spring breezes had passed and flowers blossomed in profusion, changed his usually stern, icy demeanor, adding a touch of irresistible charm.

“Boy, let me tell you, right now your cultivation is still in the True Essence Realm.

The impact of bloodline talent on cultivation speed is still limited.

The moment your cultivation breaks through the Soul Summoning Realm, you’ll see the vast differences in cultivation speed among Heavenly, Earth, and Human Veins, differences so vast they’ll make you want to spit blood.”

“Elder Sister Liao, don’t scare Ye Zhen here.

Aren’t you just a Top-Grade Four Veins talent yourself?

Now those Sect Elders, when they see you, they scatter like mice seeing a cat,” Caiyi somewhat discontentedly said.

“Oh, Caiyi, you’ve come to Ye Zhen’s defense so quickly?

What, you really ‘live together’ now?”

With this statement, Liao Feibai had Ye Zhen so flustered he felt burnt on the outside and tender inside, and even the normally pure Caiyi, having caught the tease in Liao Feibai’s words, immediately blushed.

“Instructor Liao, since it can’t be hidden, why not just take Meng Xiaoyue for a run yourself?

You can fly there, and it would only take half a day to reach Yin Mountain Canyon, and you could be back in just one day,” Ye Zhen hastily interjected.

“Go?

If it were that simple, why would I need to come to you?”

Liao Feibai gave Ye Zhen a rolled eye.

“My identity is sensitive and attracts too much attention.

I bet if I tried to sneak over, Sect Leader Chu Taiping from Lishui Sect would be there waiting for me.”

“What about Caiyi?”

Upon hearing this, Liao Feibai’s eye roll intensified.

“Her identity is even more sensitive than mine.

Sneaking out for a bit is one thing, but if she were to be discovered, the trouble would be far greater.”

Ye Zhen’s eyes widened, wondering just what sort of identities these two held that seemed to risk a world war the moment they stepped out the door.

“Soon, give me some more time, and I will be able to achieve that step and move freely,” Caiyi suddenly said.

“Sister Caiyi, then let me congratulate you in advance,” Liao Feibai said mysteriously.

In the end, the task of taking Meng Xiaoyue to the Yin Mountain Canyon to complete the inheritance fell to Ye Zhen.

According to Liao Feibai, Ye Zhen was the most suitable person for this.

Moreover, the task had been entrusted to Ye Zhen by Old Madam Meng.

Recalling Old Madam Meng’s entrustment, Ye Zhen could only agree to take on the task.

However, Liao Feibai didn’t have Ye Zhen set off immediately but advised him to wait for the right moment to join a Sect mission nearing Yinshan County.

With the mission as a cover, he could discreetly take Meng Xiaoyue to complete the inheritance at Yin Mountain Canyon.

When Ye Zhen asked why it had to be so troublesome, Liao Feibai gave him a startling answer.

“Ye Zhen, do you think no one in the Qiyun Sect is targeting Meng Xiaoyue?

The secrets carried by Meng Chuan are enough to make many envious!”

After a thorough discussion, Liao Feibai left, throwing out a ‘bomb’ just before leaving.

“Haha, I’m off.

Ye Zhen, you guys just live together then.”

After Liao Feibai departed, Ye Zhen started chatting with Caiyi.

“Caiyi, have you ever heard of a sword technique named Wind Cloud Sword Technique?”

As they talked, Ye Zhen steered the conversation in that direction.

Honestly, ever since he acquired the Wind Cloud Sword Art, Ye Zhen had been extremely intrigued.

A Middle-grade Earth Level sword technique—if he learned it, how powerful would it be?

It was said that a few of Qiyun Sect’s Sect Guardian Martial Skills were also of Middle-grade Earth Level.

“The Wind Cloud Sword Technique?

I’ve not only heard of it, I also know it,” Caiyi said with a playful smile.

“You know it?

The Middle-grade Earth Level Wind Cloud Sword Technique, you really know it?” Ye Zhen was somewhat shocked.

“Of course, I do.

Why, do you want to learn it?”

This time, Ye Zhen was genuinely astonished.

A Middle-grade Earth Level Wind Cloud Sword Technique, and Caiyi knew it.

“I want to learn it.

Where did you learn it from?” Ye Zhen asked.

“The Wind Cloud Sword Technique is the Sect Guardian Supreme Skill of our Qiyun Sect!

Not only do I know it, but nearly all the True Disciples and Sect Elders know the Wind Cloud Sword Technique.”

“So many people know it?”

Caiyi nodded.

“However, I don’t recommend that you cultivate this Wind Cloud Sword Technique.

Although it’s of Middle-grade Earth Level, its power is very poor, only slightly better than your Winter Plum Swordsmanship, and it consumes an enormous amount of energy.”

This left Ye Zhen dumbfounded.

“How can this be?

Isn’t the Wind Cloud Sword Technique the Sect Guardian Supreme Skill of my Qiyun Sect?”

“It is the Sect Guardian Supreme Skill of our Qiyun Sect, but the special mental method to execute the Wind Cloud Sword Technique, the Wind Cloud Sword Art, was lost almost a hundred years ago.

The Sect Leader passed the Wind Cloud Sword Technique to all the True Disciples and Sect Elders in the hope that some genius could rediscover the Wind Cloud Sword Art!” Fairy Caiyi explained.

This time, Ye Zhen was thoroughly shocked.

The Wind Cloud Sword Art he had found in Tu Fangye’s storage ring turned out to be the lost mental method of the Qiyun Sect.

Ye Zhen was confused.

If even Tu Fangye, a True Inheritor, had the Wind Cloud Sword Art, how could it have been lost by the Qiyun Sect?

Wait?

The fall of Tu Fangye and his death being marked as within the Sect Forbidden Land, could it be related to this lost Wind Cloud Sword Art?

“Caiyi, how can I learn this Wind Cloud Sword Technique?” Ye Zhen asked.

“Ever since the mental method for executing the Wind Cloud Sword Technique was lost, the Sect Leader, wishing to complete this mental method, moved the Wind Cloud Sword Technique to the fifth floor of the Scripture Storage Tower.

As soon as your cultivation enters the Spirit Transformation Realm and you become a True Disciple, you can learn the Wind Cloud Sword Art.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen immediately felt disappointed.

Becoming a True Disciple, who knows how long that will take.

As they were speaking, a Spirit Talisman suddenly fell from the sky into Fairy Caiyi’s hands.

After looking at it, Fairy Caiyi immediately gave Ye Zhen a strange glance.

“The Sect Leader says he’s coming to Fairy Peak.”

“Does he need something from you?”

“No, he’s looking for you!” (To be continued.
