Chapter 43 - 39: Defying the Laws of Nature



Translator: 549690339

“You’re saying Gao Qichang was rejected by Ziwei Peak?”

Surprise painted Han Ye’s face.

Liu Lingqi nodded. “Yes, after reaching the summit of Mt. Wendao and being evaluated by many elders for his talents, he was judged to lack sufficient swordsmanship aptitude, and was forcibly sent to Yangshen Peak to learn Alchemy.”

“What about the others?”

“The carpenter Li Chong has gone to Bihu Peak to learn the art of cultivating spiritual plants and take care of vast spirit fields.”

“The ironsmith Zhao Jin went to Tianhuo Peak to learn the art of artifact refining and controlling.”

“Other members from Liu Manor who participated couldn’t pass Mt. Wendao’s challenge, collapsed along the road due to their weakness, and were forcibly removed.”

Listening to Liu Lingqi, Han Ye pondered.

At least fifty people from Liu Manor participated, but only a few of them passed the three trials. The rest were all eliminated.

The Dragon Sparrow Sect is renowned in Qingyun State, and so many people have entered the sect this time. The sect’s grand ceremony revealed a lot. Many new disciples, though dressed in simple blue robes, radiated strong spiritual qi. They obviously had substantial cultivation groundwork and weren’t completely novice cultivators like them.

In other words, competition was fierce in the Dragon Sparrow Sect.

But Han Ye was still very happy for Gao Qichang, Zhao Jin, and Li Chong because they were able to practice in the Dragon Sparrow Sect.

Alchemy, spiritual plant cultivation, artifact refining.

All of those were very practical skills.

An elixir created by an Alchemy Master could be sold for a high price. Making elixirs required a constant supply of spiritual medicines and fruits as raw material. Spiritual plant cultivators played a significant role in this process. Furthermore, an artifact refining master was quite in demand in the cultivation world. The strength of a cultivator with a magical treasure and that of one without were vastly different.

Once his buddies mastered their skills, Han Ye would reap benefits from it in the future.

There were also others like beast taming, puppet refining, talisman inscription, etc.

He needed to figure out a way to involve himself in them and harvest some attributes.

Others might be biting off more than they could chew and couldn’t multitask. But Han Ye was different.

He could pick up attributes and learn all the skills from the ten major peaks. Given enough time, he believed that he would learn all these skills and master them thoroughly.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

As Han Ye was contemplating, the sound of a bell ringing resonated through the air. The clear and ethereal sound left everyone reverberating.

“Hahaha!”

“What mortals aspire for, proven by the three thousand great Dao.”

“Disciples who have newly entered the sect, welcome to Dragon Sparrow Sect!” With the ringing laughter echoing through the skies above the Debate peak, nine long and splendid holy lights descended onto the immortal peak, attracting everyone’s attention with their bright colors.

“Look, that’s the Nine Qjng Xuanguang Seal of founder Yunxu!”

“The sect master is here? I haven’t seen him for several years, and today I finally get to see him!”

“In the previous grand ceremonies of the sect, only the Grand Elder presided. But this year is different.”

Inward sect disciples dressed in blue robes began to whisper amongst each other.

Only then did Han Ye understand that the sect’s grand ceremony had begun. Nine splendid lights merged together forming the figure of Yun Xuzi, standing high on a stone platform, overlooking thousands of disciples beneath.

They came from all areas, states, counties, various dynasties; princes and princesses, gentry, aristocratic families, cultivation households.

Liu Lingqi, standing next to him, squinted at the sight of founder Yun Xuzi on the platform, not concealing her yearning:

“When will I be able to cultivate to such a realm?”

The same question Han Ye wanted to ask.

Little demon fox once said she took three hundred years to take form, yet before these powerful humans, she seemed like a mere child.

They say cultivators can pursue longevity, but Han Ye finds it hard to believe: can humans really live for so long?

“Considering Miss Liu’s single spirit root quality, there should be no problem to reach this realm within a hundred years,” said Han Ye with a smile on his face.

He was saying the absolute truth, not a mere compliment. Liu Lingqi’s wood spirit root was considered top-tier aptitude among the many disciples.

A single spirit root signified that there won’t be many bottlenecks in cultivation. The transformation rate of spiritual qi is high, with no impurities, making her capable of advancing rapidly in her cultivation.

“I’m grateful for your blessed words.”

A rare smile appeared on Liu Lingqi’s face.

On the platform of the peak.

Founder Yun Xuzi, with a smile on his face, infused his voice with magic power:

For thousands of years, dynasties have risen and fallen, and our Dragon Sparrow Sect has finally welcomed this year’s grand ceremony.” “Seeing all of you reminds me of my younger self and the Dragon Sparrow Dao Lord. We all started from innocence, just set foot on the path of cultivation, and then walked all the way to today.”

Therefore, I believe that among you this year, there might be one person who, like the Dao Lord of the past, can achieve the feat of Python and Sparrow Swallow the Dragon….”

After hearing this, Han Ye was nonchalant.

It strongly reminded him of his former boss drawing pie in the sky.

In this long journey of immortality, how many could actually become immortals?

Aren’t most reduced to a pile of yellow soil?

“Are you blind?!”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to step on your foot.”

A sudden curse echoed from the side. He looked over and saw that a disciple of the Outer Sect had stepped on the boot of a white-robed man during his movement.

The man in white looked displeased, but he had to maintain his demeanor in public and couldn’t lose his temper. His lips twitched and he muttered a curse.

With Han Ye’s sharp eyes, he guessed roughly what the man had said.

“What a useless Outer Sect disciple.”

That was probably it.

Although Han Ye felt this direct disciple had a poor quality, he didn’t take any action, as such things were common in the sect.

After all, being a direct disciple in the sect naturally made one superior.

“Thud!”

The next second, however, the direct disciple clutched his chest and grimaced in pain, with tendrils of black energy swirling around him.

“Senior Brother, what’s the matter with you?”

“Senior Brother!”

Accompanied by cries of shock from the surrounding disciples, the man in white collapsed within a moment.

Han Ye watched with a bewildered expression.

What just happened?

At that moment, an eerie, purple light orb was left in the place where the Outer Sect disciple was standing.

It was an attribute!

Han Ye struggled to control his surprise. Confirming that no one around him noticed, he slowly moved towards the location of the attribute.

“Excuse me, excuse me, sorry.”

With a lot of effort, he finally got in front of the attribute and absorbed it without hesitation.

However, after absorbing it and seeing its description, he was momentarily stunned.

Acquired attribute: Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star+1′

‘Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star (purple): Cursed by the malevolent star, you stand alone. Anyone who comes into contact with the Lone Star is bound by misfortune, likely to meet accidents or even death.’

Seeing this attribute, Han Ye was struck dumb.

A Causality Weapon?

Shouldn’t one be careful about picking this up, lest it hurts an ally by accident?

‘Heavenly Slaughter Lone Star (1/3000)’

He looked at the progress and reassured himself a little.

Thank goodness, it’s just a little bit.

It shouldn’t be as outrageous as the description states.

“It seems Senior Brother has suffered a backlash from the qi meridians.” “Huh? A backlash from the qi meridians happens when the flow of magic power is too fast, right? But the chances of that happening are incredibly low, negligible even!”

Inspecting the situation of the man in white, the disciples all looked at each other in disbelief.

To encounter even a qi meridian backlash…

That was… incredibly unlucky.

Han Ye couldn’t help but think to himself darkly, “A Causality Weapon attribute… if used well, it could be a major weapon. However, it only works upon touch, and it must be used carefully so as not to affect those around us.” “Now let’s talk about the rules of the sect.”

At this point, the speech on the stone platform was continuing, entering an intense phase.

After the pleasantries were over, the introduction to how the sect operated came up. For example, sect disciples were not permitted to only cultivate intensely within the peaks, they also had to go down the mountain to complete various difficulty tasks. Only by doing this could they earn more substantial cultivation resources and assessment scores.

To become an Inner Sect disciple or a direct disciple, besides meeting the necessary cultivation realm, one also had to obtain a sufficient amount of assessment scores.

Those who greatly exceeded others in assessment scores and were powerful, even if they didn’t meet the cultivation realm requirement, could also be accepted as exceptions.

In the sect, the better one performed, the more resources one would get. The goal was to encourage the sect’s disciples to take the initiative, striving for their cultivation.

Han Ye also learned that Outer Sect disciples only received a hundred spirit stones each month to purchase basic cultivation resources, and more spirit stones had to be earned by themselves.

“Lastly, announcing this year’s true inheritance disciples and issuing the Purple-Phoenix Treasure Scarves.”

A number of young cultivators with strong aura flew up, walking in the air to the stone platform.

There were both males and females, totaling to only ten people.

Han Ye knew that they were the disciples who had performed the best in the Dragon Sparrow Sect over the past ten years.

Every single true inheritance disciple was a pillar of the sect, not only were they gifted, but they also had to go through layers of competition, earning a large amount of assessment scores, and they were all high-level cultivators.

They had the potential to become elders and peak masters within a hundred years, and will be allocated a palace.

Each of the ten true inheritance disciples had a thin, crystal clear purple scarf draped over their shoulders.

He had heard that the Purple-Phoenix Treasure Scarf was very valuable, woven with the feathers of a divine beast, the purple phoenix. The scarf was as thin as a cicada’s wings, could resist most spells and divine powers, served as a form of defense, and only true inheritance disciples wore it.

Yun Xuzi looked satisfactorily at these newly promoted true inheritance disciples, then turned around and addressed the disciples below, stating loudly:

“Before the end of the Grand Ceremony, allow me to re-emphasize the first teaching of the Dragon Sparrow Sect.”

“The path of immortality, once embarked upon, is inevitably filled with thorns and dangers. But you can’t turn back, nor give up. Just remember this.”
