Ye Yuan could not be bothered with him. Flicking his palm, several medicinal pills appeared in his palm.
The moment the medicinal pills appeared, the sleeping Treasure Pig seemed to have been struck by lightning, turning into a streak of pink light and pouncing toward Ye Yuan.
Chapter 1825. Arousing Hostility |
“Grunt! Grunt!”Treasure Pig ate the few medicinal pills in Ye Yuan’s hand clean in no time flat.
But Little Tong’s gaze turned intent, looking at Ye Yuan in astonishment.
“You … What you fed Treasure Pig just now were void spirit divine pills?”
Ye Yuan’s brows raised up and he said, “Eh? You, this snotty brat, still have some knowledge huh, to actually know that it’s void spirit divine pills with just a glance.”
Treasure Pig ate very quickly just now, it was just a blink of an eye but was seen clearly by Little Tong.
Little Tong’s face revealed a hint of solemness and he said, “These medicinal pills were all refined by you?”
Ye Yuan said speechlessly, “Not refined by me, could it be that you refined them?”
At this time, Little Tong’s expression had a complicatedness that was not commensurate with his age.
Clearly, he was very shocked.
“That’s impossible! You broke through to Celestial Deity Realm at most for a few years. Such a short time, how can you possibly refine rank five void spirit divine pills?” Little Tong said in disbelief.
It was not that void spirit divine pills were impossible to be refined. It was just that wanting to refine void spirit divine pills undoubtedly required the accumulation of a long time.
Alchemy Dao geniuses, even if it was geniuses among geniuses, it was also impossible to comprehend the method to refine void spirit divine pills within a few year’s time.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Others can’t, doesn’t mean I can’t.”
Little Tong’s eyes narrowed slightly and he said, “Impossible, I don’t believe!”
Ye Yuan twisted Little Tong’s ear and dragged him outside.
Little Tong was in pain and screamed, “Ouch, let me go! You punk, ate a bear’s heart or a leopard’s gall? To actually dare twist my ears!”
Ye Yuan pursed his lips and said, “You broke into my residence without permission. I haven’t settled the scores with you yet, so what if I pinch you a little?”
Little Tong was so angry. Yet, Ye Yuan was proficient in spatial law, he did not have the strength to fight back at all.
At this time, Treasure Pig suddenly circled around in front of Ye Yuan and used a pitiful expression to look at him, seemingly pleading.
Ye Yuan was taken aback, only then, letting go.
Little Tong shot Treasure Pig a hateful glance and said huffily, “Humph! At least you still have a bit of conscience!”
Treasure Pig seemed to be currying favor, rubbing against Little Tong’s trousers.
Sure enough, Little Tong’s expression became much better. But he still said angrily, “Treasure Pig, you tell me now, want me or him?”
The moment Treasure Pig he looked at Little Tong and looked at Ye Yuan, the blank face revealing a difficult look.
Clearly, Treasure Pig could not bear to part with any.
Ye Yuan suddenly spoke up, “Aren’t you making things difficult for Treasure Pig like this?”
Little Tong said in a childish voice, “Treasure Pig is my pet, I can do whatever I want, is it your business?”
Ye Yuan’s expression suddenly turned sharp, gaze staring at Little Tong heatedly as he said, “You’re saying that … Treasure Pig is your pet?”
Little Tong was stared at by Ye Yuan until he was breaking out in goosebumps a little. Holding his little head high, he said unyieldingly, “I mean that it’s my grandpa’s pet! Then isn’t it my pet?”
Ye Yuan’s two eyes narrowed and he asked, “Who is your grandpa?”
Little Tong pursed his lips and said, “Saying it out will scare you to death! So, I won’t tell you!”
Ye Yuan did not speak, but according to his guesses, Little Tong’s grandpa was very likely to be an Empyrean powerhouse.
With Little Tong not saying anything, Ye Yuan did not have the intention of forcing it. Either way, this level of powerhouse was also not what he could currently come into contact with.
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “You go back then, as long as Treasure Pig is willing to leave, I won’t stop it. But, if I discover that you sneak into my residence again, it won’t be as simple as wringing your ears next time!”
Seeing Ye Yuan’s gaze that had ill-intentions, Little Tong unconsciously touched his butt.
Vivid in his mind!
Little Tong thought about it and said, “I’m not leaving anymore! I want to stay together with Treasure Pig!”
Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed and he said, “No way!”
However, Treasure Pig looked at Ye Yuan again pitifully, the short pigtail wagging non-stop.
Even if Ye Yuan was decisive in going for the kill, he could not stop Treasure Pig’s cute attack too.
He owed Treasure Pig a favor. If not for Treasure Pig, he would also be unable to refine pills to his heart’s content like now.
Helpless, Ye Yuan let out a sigh and said, “Fine then, but if you want to stay, you must listen to me! Things that I don’t let you do, you absolutely can’t do, understood?”
Little Tong giggled and said, “Okay, deal! Are you going to refine pills now? I want to watch you refine pills!”
Ye Yuan said, “Before the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, I’ll be refining pills. If you want to watch me refine pills, can, but if you disturb me, get lost at once!”
The moment Little Tong heard, his head nodded like a rattle-drum.
Heh, I want to see how high your pill refining standard is! You can refine rank five void spirit divine pills, this Empyrean doesn’t believe even if beaten to death! Little Tong thought in his heart.
Upper Groove Court had an independent pill refining room. Inside, all kinds of facilities were prepared, Ye Yuan was very satisfied.
Little Tong carried the sleeping Treasure Pig and quietly watched Ye Yuan refine pills from the side. The expression on his face became more and more solemn, and the astonishment in his heart also grew greater and greater.
“This kid’s pill refining level is already a consummate work of art! No wonder he looks down on even Du Rufeng, saying that old punk really has no way of teaching him anything! Forget about Du Rufeng, even I, in terms of the refinement of rank five divine pills, also don’t dare to say that I’m stronger than him! This kid is just a thousand over years in bone age, how in the world did he cultivate?”
The more Little Tong looked, the more shocked he was inward.
Ye Yuan’s technique in refining rank five divine pills still seemed a little unfamiliarized. But it was merely relatively speaking.
Even if he did not perform well, it was still peak heaven-grade too.
Furthermore, along with the passing of time, Ye Yuan’s refining technique also became more and more skillful, the probability of heaven-grade also became smaller and smaller.
On the 12th day, Little Tong said, “This kid is simply a natural-born alchemist, his improvement is too fast! This kid has absolutely already glimpsed the source Great Dao, too strong! No wonder the moment Treasure Pig saw him, he couldn’t move anymore.”
…
On this day, the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave officially began.
When the Shadowmoon Sect disciples walked over, they immediately attracted a series of sidelong glances.
Especially the disciples of the High Clarity Sect, Ruyi Sect, and several powerful sects. Each and every one of their expression was unfriendly.
“Heh heh, Yang Shen, even with your strength, you’re unable to stay in Upper Groove Court. This bunch of rookies actually check into it!”
The person talking was called Luo Zhen, Ruyi Sect’s number one person, peak Second Firmament Celestia
l Deity powerhouse.
Yang Shen was the number one High Clarity Sect disciple. His cultivation was also at the peak Second Firmament Celestial Deity.
Yang Shen’s face fell and he said, “What can staying in Upper Groove Court mean? Merely because of a pig! Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, strength decides everything! Staying in Upper Groove Court also doesn’t mean that they can enter the divine temple!”
Luo Zhen smiled and said, “I’ve already talked with the junior brothers and sister, this time, must shave the Shadowmoon Sect bald! As long as all of us run into Shadowmoon Sect disciples, must make them lose very horribly.”
Yang Shen’s brows raised up and he said with a nod, “I also really want to see what extraordinary aspects this season’s Shadowmoon Sect disciples have!”
These two people exchanged a glance, clearly reaching some kind of tacit agreement.
Actually, not just them, quite a few powerful sects’ elders and disciples were all brooding on the Shadowmoon Sect staying in Upper Groove Court.
Chapter 1826. Three Moves are Too Many, Just One Move |
14 True God level sects, 64 disciples gathered on the practicing field.But everyone’s attention was on the Shadowmoon Sect, on Ye Yuan.
Yi Qingxiang felt these gazes that had ill-intentions and could not resist somewhat feeling fear.
“Elder Xu, why … why are they using this kind of eyes to look at us?”
Elder Xu said coolly, “Staying in Upper Groove Court with our strength will naturally arouse their displeasure. One has to know, even the High Clarity Sect doesn’t have the qualifications to stay in it. In a while, you guys have to be careful.”
Yi Qingxiang and Jiang Xueyan’s faces immediately became very ugly. These few days, they had all obtained considerable benefits cultivating in Upper Groove Court.
But this benefit obtained had a price too.
This kind of treatment that did not match one’s status was very easy to arouse other people’s displeasure.
This was what they did not take into account previously.
“This … This is all Ye Yuan’s fault!” Jiang Xueyan said gloomily.
Yi Qingxiang also complained, “Yeah, this guy just loves to stand in the limelight!”
The moment Ye Yuan heard, he could not help shaking his head and laughing in spite of himself.
This was human nature, when it was beneficial to them, they would feel that it was natural and right. But once a problem occurred, they would feel that it was all your fault.
But Baili Qingyan was indignant and said with a cold smile, “That day when you guys checked in, weren’t you still dancing merrily with joy? If not for Ye Yuan, you all would have to stay in the woodshed! As a True God level sect’s disciples, this is your bit of pitiful dignity?”
At this time, Little Tong was hugging Treasure Pig had a childish voice, but behaved like a senior as he said, “Do the two of you still want face or not? Did Ye Yuan beg you guys to stay inside? Or is it that you guys feel that with your strength, as long as you’re not targeted, you can get the qualifications to enter the temple?”
The two people could not help choking up when they heard it. This little devil was not old but did not give any face when talking.
The two people exchanged a glance, and both fell silent.
What Little Tong said was right, even if not targeted, it was also impossible for them to get the qualifications to enter the temple.
Hearing that Ye Yuan was going to take part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave, Little Tong was very interested and insisted on coming no matter what.
Each Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave would have a fixed number of 64 people participating.
As for the allocation of places, it was allocated to the various major sects according to the sect’s strength by the temple, by taking into consideration the circumstances.
This quota was not fixed, but in the recent few sessions, High Clarity Sect, Ruyi Sect, and a few other major sects, each one of them occupied seven to eight spots.
The places of the other weaker sects reduced in turn.
The Shadowmoon Sect possessed four spots. It was considered not few, but actually, there was basically not much hope.
After all, among the 64 people, there were only a mere five final spots.
The Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave was a fierce battle, the conclave would last for several months, even as long as a year.
The disciples taking part in the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave would fight battles. Every day, only five matches were carried out, all the way until all of the people finished fighting.
Finally, the five people with the highest victory rates were eligible to enter the temple.
This kind of fierce fighting was a test to all the disciples, and also the opportunity to all disciples.
Disciples able to come to the Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave were the best among the various major True God level sects. Not one was mediocre.
Even those sects that were weaker similarly could not be underestimated.
In the matches in the past, there was no lack of examples of some powerful sects’ disciples being brought down by small sects’ disciples.
Furthermore, over the period as long as several months, some people would learn from other people’s strong points, their strength advancing by leaps and bounds, even charging into the top five in the end.
It was not that this did not happen before in the past.
Du Rufeng held a rectangle-shaped jade tablet and said in a clear voice, “Alright. Now, everyone, inject divine essence into this jade tablet. The jade tablet will automatically help you all generate a number and automatically pair.”
The Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave this time was presided over by precisely him.
When the group of disciples heard that, they sent out their divine essence one after another.
For some time, divine essence with all kinds of colors flew everywhere in midair, and finally injected into the jade tablet.
After everyone injected their divine essence, the jade tablet suddenly erupted with rays of brilliant light, emitting a light.
On the light screen displayed everyone’s numbers.
Ye Yuan searched it for a bit and discovered that his number was actually in the last place: No. 64.
In the crowd, someone suddenly burst into laughter and said, “Hahaha, a genius who stayed in Upper Groove Court is actually No. 64, how hilarious!”
“Really shameless! This bit of strength and he also has the face to stay in Upper Groove Court. If I were him, I’d have long moved away!”
With him laughing, quite a few people all guffawed along with him.
The words were full of ridicule towards Ye Yuan.
Everyone knew that for the Shadowmoon Sect to be able to stay in Upper Groove Court was entirely because Ye Yuan hit it off with that pig.
Actually, he did not have the qualifications to stay in Upper Groove Court at all!
Ye Yuan felt baffled and asked Xu Yan, “What’s so funny about No. 64?”
Xu Yan had not spoken yet when Little Tong interjected, “You aren’t from the outside world, right? To not even know this? The jade tablet in Du Rufeng’s hand is called Profound Realm Tablet. It can accurately determine your realm through your divine essence. You’re No. 64, which means that your realm is the lowest among these 64 people! Who do you think they should mock if not you?”
The moment Ye Yuan heard, he came to a realization, only then, becoming aware of this jade tablet’s prowess.
This thing was simply a demon revealing mirror, making you bare everything!
Similarly, initial-stage First Firmament Celestial Deity, each person’s realm could not possibly be exactly the same too.
Cultivation realm was linear. Cultivating one more day, there was a possibility of being that trace higher than other people’s realm.
Of course, because of differences in cultivation methods and differences in talent, cultivation speed would vary.
Suddenly, the light screen showed dense text once more.
Du Rufeng said, “All of your matches are already displayed here. Bamboo Groove Martial Conclave started officially from today! Don’t want to have your match, you can decide not to attend. If you miss your match, you’ll be issued a loss!”
Finished talking, Du Rufeng even glanced at Ye Yuan meaningfully.
Someone exclaimed, “Eh, that kid’s fight is tomorrow. His opponent is … High Clarity Sect’s He Yuan!”
Ye Yuan’s existence was even more resounding than High Clarity Sect’s Yang Shen and the Ruyi Sect’s Luo Zhen.
Straight away, everyone saw his opponent in the first round, faces revealing gloating expressions one by one.
“Heh, this kid is really unlucky, encountering He Yuan in the first round!”
“Although He Yuan is High Clarity Sect’s last place, he’s also peak First Firmament Celestial Deity. Furthermore, his strength is much stronger than other sects’ same rank martial artists!”
Just as everyone was discussing animatedly, a youth in purple came before Ye Yuan and said with a look of amusement, “Upper Groove Court’s genius, tomorrow, you have to give guidance! Make sure not to concede defeat too quickly. Otherwise, everybody will be disappointed. How about … three moves?”
“Hahaha …” A wave of laughter came from all around.
This youth in purple was naturally He Yuan without a doubt.
Except, he did not come over to greet, but to intentionally humiliate Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan smiled faintly and said, “Three moves are too many, just one move!”
Chapter 1827. I Still Have to Go Back and Refine Pills |
“Just one move? This guy is so shameless, is this going to directly admit defeat?”Ye Yuan’s words immediately drew laughter from the crowd.
He Yuan said smugly, “Looks like you’re really sent by the Shadowmoon Sect to play a side-character. It’s just that your luck was good, being taken a fancy to by Treasure Pig. Tsk tsk, I thought how strong you were, really disappointing!”
