Volume 2: Wu Enters Witchcraft Chapter 58: Yuan Gong's Weakness (Second Update)

  "I'd like to see just how much of your vital energy you can swallow!"

  Ye Xu did not give up, and continued to convert his demonic energy into primordial energy. Half a time unit later, all of his cultivation was converted into primordial energy, which was completely absorbed by the Nine Turns Primordial Merit, without leaving a single drop behind!

  His aura was extremely thick, and if it were all converted into yuanqi, among the Yuan cultivators of the first grade, he could be considered a mid-level figure. But for the Nine Turns Yuan Gong, this amount of yuanqi wasn't even enough to fill a gap between teeth!

  Now he has the realm of Wu Shi Pei Yuan's first product, but there is no cultivation at all!

  In terms of cultivation, he is not even comparable to a little kid who has just started cultivating true energy!

  "This mental technique is simply bottomless!"

  He was shocked in his heart, his temper flared up, and he said viciously: "I don't believe it, with the cultivation speed of Zhou Tianxing's Star Dueling Qi Refining Technique, you can't even fill me up!"

  Ye Xue's double-handed seal technique changed and transformed in countless ways, drawing down strand after strand of stellar energy from the night sky. The stellar energy was drawn into his body by the Zhou Tian Star Dou Lian Qi technique, directly transforming into yuan qi.

  The stars and constellations in the sky shone brightly, without distinction between day and night. The power of the stars was thus vast and majestic, and the primordial energy it transformed was extremely astonishing, making his cultivation speed incredibly fast, far surpassing that of other wizards.

  But even so, the Zhoutian Xingdou Lianqi technique is only slightly faster than the Nine Turns Primordial Merit's absorption speed, and this bit of primordial energy is almost negligible.

  Jiuzhuan Yuangong is like an ancient strange beast that has a good appetite, swallowing yuanqi with no exit.

  He practiced from morning till night and then again from night till dawn, yet this technique still didn't feel satisfying.

  However, Ye Xu was not without gain, his dantian had finally accumulated a small amount of yuanqi, roughly equivalent to one percent of his previous cultivation.

  At this speed of cultivation, it would take him three and a half months to recover his previous level of cultivation!

  Ye Xuzi carefully calculated and came to a desperate conclusion: if he wanted to cultivate to the second rank of Peiyuan, he would have to spend ten years of hard work!

  Others became wizards, with good qualifications, and could cultivate to the second rank of Pei Yuan in just one year, while he needed a whole ten years!

  "If I were to marry Qiaoqiao and bring her home, in ten years' time, my son would probably be able to cultivate his martial arts skills to the level of a First Heaven warrior and become a wizard!"

  In fact, he didn't know that the Ye family had been in power for 300 years, and countless heroes had tried to cultivate the Nine Turns of Primordial Qi, but none of them had succeeded without exception.

  They cultivated the Nine Turns of Primordial Energy, but instead of increasing their cultivation, it suddenly dropped, and even the ancestor who opened the Ye family's mansion was no exception.

  Ye Xu's cultivation did not decline but instead rose, although the increase was extremely small, it was already an unprecedented special case.

  All of this depends on the terrifying cultivation speed of Zhou Tian Xing Dou Lian Qi Technique. If not for Zhou Tian Xing Dou Lian Qi Technique, Ye Xu would only be able to become a Yuan Yi Pin witch doctor for his entire life.

  Ye Xuan had a mind to abandon this heart method, but he was reluctant in his heart. When he cultivated the Nine Turns of Yuan Gong to the third turn, he could hard resist Ye Fu's witchcraft, Eagle Snake Double Strike.

  To know that Ye Fu is a second-rate cultivator, there is an insurmountable gap between the second-rate cultivators and the Pre-Heavenly Overlords. He can remain unscathed under the magic of the second-rate cultivators, and even defeat Ye Fu so badly that he flees in disarray. This is simply beyond everyone's understanding!

  If he were to cultivate all nine cycles of the Nine Revolutions First Heavy Heart Method and condense a Golden Body, Ye Xuan even suspected that he could withstand the Witch Treasure head-on!

  The profound effect of this skill was so great that it moved his heart involuntarily.

  "I'll try to cultivate it first. If the Nine Turns of the Mysterious Vessel really requires ten years for me to enter the second rank of Yuan Cultivation, then no matter how profound this technique is, I must abandon it!"

  He made up his mind and threw away the shortcomings of the Nine Turns Primordial Merit, focusing on cultivation.

  Although he had become a first-class wizard of Peiyuan, his yuanqi cultivation was really too low to be pitied and was not enough to cast even one spell, so he could only temporarily put off going to find Yexuan to learn new spells.

  Ye Xu closed the door to meditate, during which an envoy from the Imperial Court came to ask about the origin of his Jade Tower. He used the excuse that the Seven-Star Cold Jade Tower bestowed by Heaven's Way had not been completely pulverized and still had remnants, thus sending them away.

  As for Ye Fu's death, the imperial court seemed to be unaware of this matter, and even didn't know that such a person existed. Not even Ye Siyan asked about Ye Fu's whereabouts, and the matter was thus dropped.

  This is because Ye Fan has already spread the word, and Ye Xu has his protection. Otherwise, even if Ye Xu becomes a registered wizard of the Ye family, he will definitely not be free from trouble.

  Ye Fan's strength was second only to the master of the mansion, Ye Si Dao. His temperament was also strange and eccentric, often taking lives with a flick of his wrist, even the older generation of experts within the inner mansion didn't dare speak loudly in front of him, let alone people like Ye Si Yan and Ye Si Xiao.

  Ye Xu lived a simple life with Su Qiaoqiao, and they had four maids serving them, living in harmony.

  "Master! My Xuanming True Qi has reached the fourth level!" Su Jiao Jiao said excitedly, jumping up and down with her hands behind her back as she circled around him several times.

  Ye Xu nodded, and it was only natural that Shui De Gong's physique would have such a fast cultivation speed.

  Half a month later, that girl jumped around him again: "Young master, I've cultivated to the fifth level!"

  Ye Xuan's eyes twitched slightly, this speed was simply too fast, so fast that it made one's heart skip a beat.

  "People with special physiques are naturally gifted, can they really cultivate so quickly?"

  Now he finally experienced the feeling of being shocked into numbness by others, whereas in the past, he was always the one shocking others.

  Three or four days passed again, Su Qiaoqiao came to his side once more. Before she could even open her mouth, Ye Xuan woodenly said: "Qiaoqiao, your Xuanyuan True Qi has reached the sixth stage?"

  "No. Young master, an old man with a fierce look has come outside and says he wants to see you."

  Ye Xusong let out a breath of relief. If Qiaoqiao could really cultivate the Xuanming True Energy to the sixth level in three or four days, then he would be truly numb.

  "Fierce old man? Could it be Grey Eagle Ye Lun?"

  Ye Xue walked out of the mansion, only to see Ye Fan standing in front of the door with a hundred ghost flags, his eagle nose and fierce eyes made him look like a bad person, no wonder Qiao Qiao said he was violent.

  "Ye Fan's senior's appearance is indeed somewhat inferior..."

  "Seventh Master, you've become a wizard? Great, follow me!"

  Ye Fan didn't say another word, and immediately walked towards the innermost part of the palace with a large fan. Ye Xu quickly followed up and said: "Senior, I've only just cultivated to the first rank of Pei Yuan, I'm afraid I still can't cultivate witchcraft, can you give me a few more days?"

  Ye Yun stopped in her tracks and turned back to say: "How many more days do you want to extend?"

  "Three or four years?" Ye Xu asked tentatively.

  If three or four years' time still cannot solve the shortcomings of Jiuzhuan Yuangong, then he can only abolish this mind method.

  Ye Yun's face turned red with rage, and the hundred ghosts surrounding him let out a loud roar. The ground beneath their feet cracked open, revealing a large fissure several meters in diameter. "Three or four years?" Ye Yun bellowed. "How many three or four years can I still live? Don't waste my time with nonsense! I'll only teach you the witchcraft, whether you can learn it or not is none of my concern. If you don't want to learn now, then wait until you do, but by that time, I won't be teaching anymore. You'll have to find your own materials and earn the chance to enter the Witch's Library yourself."

  Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel that it was no wonder this old man had no relationships in the Ye Manor, his temper was so bad that not only did strangers dare not approach him, even ghosts might not dare to get close to him.

  "Senior, where are we going?"

  Neifu Wuxiutang

  Ye Xuhong was shocked in his heart. The Neifu Wuxiu Hall is the place where the Neifu Wu Shi cultivates witchcraft, and it is as famous as the Lianbaodao.

  This place, ordinary people don't dare to enter, only the core witches have this qualification. Even when he was still the proud son of the Ye family, he didn't have the qualifications to enter, and even getting close wasn't allowed.

  Neifu Wuxiutang is located in the most central location of Yefu, it is a magnificent grand hall, outside the hall there are eight Wu Shi guarding, defense is strict.

  Ye Xue saw a sparrow flying over the grand hall, about to land and rest. One of the witches suddenly raised his hand and slapped it lightly, and the sparrow was crushed into a meat pie by his palm force. It immediately burst into flames, leaving no ashes behind!
