Chapter Eighty: Tian Xuan Transmits the Teachings

  The sudden arrival of Feng Liu Yun caused a burst of cheers from the stifled inner disciples, as he was one of the rising stars in recent years. Although his reputation did not match that of Wan Qiu Shui, due to being valued by the Taixuan Sect Master, he had already shown signs of surpassing him.

  His appearance was at this critical moment, and naturally he was greatly anticipated by everyone.

  War.

  Stepping into the trial arena, although there was a hint of anger between his eyebrows at this moment, the faint scholarly air emanating from his bones remained undiminished. His cold eyes locked onto Situ Kuangsheng, and a single word escaped his lips.

  It wasn't a particularly surprising "war" character, but it made Cui Kuang's face change slightly, his frantic attitude reined in, with a hint of vigilance.

  Originally, Fengliu Yunfu had only made a move with his hand, and the "Hunyuan Town Zhongjin" was sacrificed. Such a medium-grade treasure is not something that ordinary cultivators can possess, and even many Golden Elixir True Men may not have one medium-grade treasure.

  Although Situ Kuangsheng was extremely confident in his own "Ice Heart Emerald Flame Technique", he did not dare to be complacent when faced with the enormous threat of a mid-grade treasure, and he made a move with his divine ability, coordinating with two golden flying swords to entangle and fight.

  "With a bold and decisive move, he didn't let his anger disturb his heart. This style of play is not simple." On the high platform, Tian Xuanzi thought to himself, nodding slightly.

  Chuyi, who was closely watching the commotion in the trial field, also revealed a hint of admiration. Fengyun's seemingly impulsive entry into the trial field and his fierce battle appeared to Chuyi as a well-targeted and strategic move.

  Wan Qiu Shui's admission of defeat was not because he didn't want to fight, but rather his Tian Di Ren San Jian Shen Tong was completely suppressed by his opponent. He couldn't wait until he was exhausted and then admit defeat after being severely beaten.

  However, his cultivation and strength were not as profound as Wan Qiu's, but he had the "Hunyuan Zhen Huang Flag", a mid-grade treasure that was both defensive and offensive, with considerable might.

  The treasure might not be drained of its magical power by the "Azure Blue Flame", let alone a precious artifact that would make even a Golden Elixir True Person jealous.

  In this way, it's as if the advantage that Situ Kuang was most proud of has been dissolved into nothingness. Moreover, just now, although he completely defeated Wan Qiu Shui, it wasn't without any consumption. With Feng Liu Yun rushing onto the stage to start fighting, he also didn't give his opponent even a slight chance to recover their energy. Under this situation where one's loss is another's gain, Feng Liu Yun has instead become the side with a certain advantage.

  The battle between Fengliu Yun and Situ Kuangsheng didn't last long, but it was much more thrilling than the previous one. Under the pressure of the "Hunyuan Town Mu Fan" treasure, Situ Kuangsheng had to use all his skills: Bingxin Bilei Da Fa, Tianxing Jianling, Jiujue Lingsha, Huaying Canxue Tun Fa, Miehun Shenlei, Luotian Han Shan Gu.

  This also greatly revealed his astonishing strength, and Chu Yi couldn't help but think to himself that even though just now when Situ Kuangsheng was fighting against Wan Qiushui he didn't use the "Bihexinlanhuo", the chances of winning between the two were probably only fifty-fifty, and Situ Kuangsheng's chances of winning might be slightly higher.

  However, "Chaos Town's Majestic Banner" was too powerful, and Situ Kuangsheng, who had no treasure to use, fought against Fengliu Yun for a moment before finally showing signs of weakness. He then fought with Wan Qiushui, having already exhausted nearly half of his true yuan, which was also a major reason.

  Looking back, Fengliu Yun was even more courageous in battle. The "Hunyuan Town Mu" in his hands transformed into two light screens, one black and one white. The white screen defended, the black screen attacked, and its power was unmatched for a time.

  On the high platform, the mysterious old monster still maintained a calm and composed attitude, which was quite strange given his fiery temper.

  "Xuanxu brother, it seems that this battle will be our victory." Tian Xuanzi had just been made very annoyed by the old freak Xuanxu, and naturally retorted without being polite.

  "Tian Xuan, this young master is indeed too arrogant. It's good that someone has taught him a lesson. However, I must say something beforehand. The two other disciples who came with me this time are both stronger than this young master by a large margin. Your disciple who wields the sacred artifact is only at the 9th level of spiritual energy, and with his aggressive and violent approach, even if he wins, he will likely be unable to fight again."

  Xuanxu Lao Guai is what kind of person, the divine eyesight of Huashen Zhizun is so high that for cultivators below Jindan, eight or nine out of ten can see through their fighting methods.

  Having heard Xuanxu's words, Tian Xuangzi's gaze seemed to drift unintentionally onto Chu Yi's body, then slightly shook his head, as if he had already acknowledged the predetermined outcome of this loss.

  It's no wonder he would think that way, someone like Xuán Xū Lǎo Guài wouldn't lie about such things. Since the Dà Luó Tiān Zōng's yet-to-appear Lǚ Jiàn Hún and Shàng Xuě Róu are stronger than Sī Tú Kuáng Shēng, it seems that without a precious artifact or Wàn Qiū Shuǐ's wisdom to form a Huì Dān for cultivation, Chǔ Yì would be destined to lose in a fight against him.

  Losing a spiritual beast's inner dan wasn't a big deal, but to lose face in front of the thousand elite disciples on the day of the inner sect's grand competition was extremely unacceptable for Tian Xuanzi.

  Under the oppression, Tian Xuanzi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a bold idea emerged in his mind.

  At this moment, Chu Yi, who was still fully focused on the battlefield, suddenly felt a strong and unmatched thought transmission coming from the sea of consciousness, "Young one, don't look around, I'm communicating with you through the 'Great Divine Thought Technique'. Whatever you want to say, just think about it in your heart, and I'll naturally hear it..."

  "This battle is over, Fengliu Yun jue can't fight a second round, the remaining two big Luo Tian Zong guys are left for you to deal with."

  "Great Elder?!" Chu Yi's clear response was accompanied by an involuntary shock in his heart.

  "It's not my fault, are you confident to continue winning two more games?"

  "Haven't tried, how would I know." After watching two exciting matches in a row, Chu Yi's desire for battle was fully ignited, and there was even a hint of urgency in his mind.

  "I didn't think you still had this kind of determination."

  Tian Xuanzi clearly sensed Chu Yi's eagerness to fight, and the last bit of hesitation in his heart was dispelled. He immediately continued with a serious tone: "I will now transmit to you a divine technique. With this, you may be able to win two consecutive matches. However, remember that you absolutely cannot use this technique during your first match. If you are unable to emerge victorious on your own strength in the first match, I'd rather admit defeat to that mysterious old freak..."

  Chu Yi's mind was a complete muddle, and then he suddenly felt his sea of consciousness shake violently. That enormous mental power that had been building up to an unbearable level surged forward tenfold, a hundredfold. The hand seals and key points of the divine techniques seemed to be branded deeply into Chu Yi's brain like a hot iron.

  In the time it takes to breathe in and out a few times, Chu Yi had grasped a divine ability whose name he wasn't even clear about until now. If this was the speed of his learning, perhaps only a handful of Supreme Beings in the world could achieve such an effect.

  Tian Xuanzi's mastery of the "Great Divine Mind Technique" was only achieved in the past decade or so. This technique can only be cultivated after attaining the cultivation level of a Transcendent Being, and even then, not every Transcendent Being is guaranteed to succeed in cultivating it.

  By virtue of this "Great Divine Mind Technique", the Supreme Deity can transmit a divine art to someone else at the cost of losing 100 years of life, and the person who receives the divine art does not need to cultivate it, they can fully grasp and control it at will.

  To master a divine art and integrate it thoroughly, even with exceptional talent and guidance from a renowned teacher, it has never been possible to achieve in just three to five years. Such rapid methods are truly astonishing.

  Tian Xuanzi was also anxious, otherwise he wouldn't have resorted to this move. Of course, apart from not wanting to lose face, he had a more private reason that only he himself understood.

  "I see that you are a cultivator who has tempered your physical body, which is perfect for unleashing the full power of this divine ability. This divine ability is called 'Burning Blood Great Method'. Once activated, it can instantly raise your cultivation level by one tier and multiply your strength and speed several times over. With your current physique, which far surpasses that of ordinary cultivators at the same stage, you should be able to maintain this state for about 100 breaths. However, the drawback of this method is that after the divine ability's effect dissipates, you will be left in a state of complete exhaustion for three days, almost like an ordinary person."

  "In the future, as your cultivation and strength grow deeper, your physical body will become stronger, and the time that the Burning Blood Great Method can maintain will also be longer. However, today you only need to do one thing: rely solely on your own abilities to win the first battle, and then use the Burning Blood Great Method in the second battle to win again within a hundred breaths of time. Do you understand?"

  "It was originally a self-mutilating divine ability..."

  Chu Yih's heart was clear, and a hint of bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Great Elder, must we resort to such self-mutilating divine abilities?"

  "Nonsense, your next two opponents have already formed their Hui Dan, which is equivalent to the quasi-Jin Dan cultivation. Especially that Shang Xue Rou, she's just half a step away from entering the Jing Jin Dan realm..."

  A hint of impatience was detected in Tian Xuanzi's tone, and Chu Yi smiled wryly: "I will definitely do my best, but after I win, Elder can you please help me out? The top five for this inner sect competition have not been determined yet, and I don't want to lose the chance to enter the top five because I used the 'Burning Blood Technique'."

  "If you can win two more games, I won't just call you a personally taught disciple, but even giving you the status of an inner sect elder wouldn't be out of the question."

  Tian Xuanzi coldly sent out a thought, withdrew the Great Divine Thought Technique, and closed his eyes to cultivate his spirit. He couldn't be bothered to look at Chu Yi, who had obtained such great benefits from heaven, yet was still haggling over the price like a petty child.
