Limitless - Chapter 140: Problems everywhere

Even in the face of death, when Bai Guang spoke about Mars, he seemed to be extremely aloof and contented.

Chu Yu raised his foot and looked at Bai Guang condescendingly, "Mars is Mars, what is so dazzling about it? Why are you so proud? Where are you getting your sense of superiority from?"

Bai Guang was furious and embarrassed. It looked at Chu Yu with teary eyes, yet, his pupils filled with rage.

Chu Yu then chuckled, "Do you know, you’re extremely ugly and revolting, but your eyes are rather adorable."

Sh*t!

Bai Guang spat out a mouthful of blood.

He had spent considerable time on Earth and naturally knew what adorable meant.

As a servant of a god and a King’s Realm life form, how could he be described as adorable?

How humiliating?

Chu Yu then continued interrogating it, whenever it was even slightly uncooperative, Chu Yu would kick it.

Bai Guang, who was seriously injured, gasped for breath.

Chu Yu had initially wanted to throw it off the cliff a few more times, but the white worm body disgusted him.

In the end, after getting enough information, Chu Yu beheaded it with a clean swipe of the blade.

Any King’s Realm Life form has a golden pill inside their body.

The energy contained within it was incredibly pure!

Chu Yu would never pass up such an opportunity. He kept the golden pill from Bai Guang’s body for use in his pill refining.

The beheaded Bai Guang did not die for a long time, its adorable eyes projecting beams of hatred, but they were of no threat.

"Chu Yu, you killed the messengers of the Butterfly Lord, and you dare to kill me... you will suffer retribution! You will not die a good death!"

Bai Guang’s voice was incredibly cold, with its last bit of energy, it laughed, "And that b*tch Lin Shimeng, she will also suffer..."

"F*ck your mother!" Chu Yu split Bai Guang’s brain in half and Bai Guang was dead.

Chu Yu had found out that the reason Bai Guang came looking for him was because of the seven men Chu Yu and Lin Shi had killed.

They were all messengers that the Butterfly Lord had chosen for this Earth.

The seven of them rose quickly, terming themselves as the seven heroes. Their first order of business upon entering China was to defeat all of those on the Heaven’s Pride Board.

The reason why many ancient sects chose to keep quiet was because they knew something about the background of these seven men.

The ancient sects did not dare to antagonize the messengers of Mars’s superior talent.

After the seven of them were chosen, their cultivation level was raised to Xiantian quickly, and then sent into China.

Bai Guang had wanted them to rise quickly and gain a foothold in China.

As the servant of the divine Butterfly Lord, Bai Guang had great hopes for these seven men.

He had expected that this would be an easy conquest. He never imagined that the seven of them would be schooled by Lin Shimeng.

They were annihilated...

It was incredibly depressing.

Even though Bai Guang brought along a large amount of superior pills when it came to Earth, it was no easy feat to cultivate these seven Xiantians in such a short time.

It was easy to describe the method to refine a pill that would launch someone straight into Xiantian.

However, actually refining such a pill was not as easy as it seemed.

Only a pill refined by a pill refining saint himself could allow an ordinary person to withstand the immense force from the medicine.

If the person’s cultivation was insufficient, they would not be able to refine pills of such quality, even if they had the saint’s legacy on hand.

The pills that Bai Guang brought required someone of great talent in order for it to be effective.

Furthermore, the success rate was not as high as previously thought.

In fact, he had initially selected 11 men!

However, only seven were successful, the other four... died from their inability to withstand the terrifying medicinal force.

Bai Guang had wanted to use these talents to do many things.

He even had a ten year plan for them.

Yet, Lin Shi had ruined them in a single blow!

Chai Yue met an even worse fate, he was killed immediately by Chu Yu...

Bai Guang was furious, it had wanted to take revenge then, but was delayed by other things.

Thus, that had dragged on till now.

Now that it had time, Bai Guang went to find Lin Shi, but after many days of searching, it could find no trace of Lin Shi.

Then, it’s eyes fell to Chu Yu. Since it couldn’t find Lin Shi, it could only find Chu Yu!

Weren’t they a couple?

They were also said to be childhood friends!

Once it had Chu Yu in its grasp, Lin Shi would naturally show herself.

Bai Guang had wanted to scare these two youths before recruiting them!

In Bai Guang’s opinion, Chu Yu and Lin Shi were no different from the Seven Heroes.

They were just tools!

The people on the Earth did not even have the right to be a servant!

He was the true servant of the Butterfly Lord!

He was the servant of a god!

Yet, he was severely injured by the people he had looked down upon!

He even laid down his life here.

Chu Yu left the place quickly, his heart heavy as he travelled.

Initially, Chu Yu was most worried about the Mirror World!

Lin Shi had told him many things about the Mirror World and this had caused Chu Yu to think that the people from the Mirror World were the biggest enemy.

However, after interacting with Bai Guang, Chu Yu understood that the Earth faced enemies both internally and externally!

The enemies were far more than just the Mirror World.

Many ancient legacies resided on the other planets in the solar system.

These places were unsealed far earlier than the Earth!

This would mean that they have had more time to cultivate than the cultivators on Earth.

Even though the solar system was the promised land, the heart was still the Earth!

This was where all the life forms flocked to!

Not only did people outside of the solar system want to enter, life forms from the other stars within the solar system also wanted to enter the Earth!

During the many years that the Earth was sealed, many life forms in the solar system had attempted to invade.

However, all of them failed!

It was no use trying to enter an Earth which was still sealed.

The stronger the cultivator, the less likely he was to be able to enter.

Finally, the Earth was unsealed and the world changed. All of the powers who found out the news could not wait to send their expedition teams to the Earth and find the monuments from the ancient times. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

They wanted to gain a foothold here!

"When friends come, we treat them well, if enemies come... we kill them!"

Chu Yu’s forehead flashed with an evil aura.

Even he did not realize that he was vastly different from how he was just half a year ago.

When he returned to Yan Jing, he called Caixue and found out that she was still waiting for him at the teahouse.

Chu Yu could feel that Caixue’s feelings for him were not strong.

Her liking for him might stem from the fact that forbidden fruit is the sweetest.

Caixue had wanted to see him for other reasons.

When he returned to the teahouse, Chu Yu ignored those who were spying on him in the dark.

They were a group of scum. Like flies, it would be impossible to kill them all, as long as they didn’t fly in front of him, he would ignore them.

"You killed him?" Caixue looked at Chu Yu worriedly, "You should know his origins then."

Chu Yu nodded, "Mars."

Caixue sighed, "Indeed."

Then, she asked Chu Yu, "Why did he come to find us?"

"The Seven Heroes were the servants of that disgusting worm." Chu Yu replied

"Disgusting worm? You’re saying..." Caixue frowned at Chu Yu

"Yup, that guy who claims to be god’s servant is a pinworm from the depths of the land. It is the type that..." Chu Yu gestured and described, in vivid detail, the King’s Realm pinworm.

"Urgh, you don’t have to be so detailed..." Caixue paled, "How disgusting!"

After some time, she looked at Chu Yu, still sitting and waiting opposite her. Caixue tried to regain her breath, "Chu Yu, are you trying to gross me out?"

"Why would I?" Chu Yu said innocently and explained, "This is the first time I am seeing such a lifeform, do you know, its eyes are pretty adorable."

"Urgh... don’t say anymore." Caixue was extremely grossed out, how could such a revolting worm be adorable?

She looked at Chu Yu, "Okay, let’s stop here, was Niu Pengfei its servant too?"

Chu Yu shook his head, "No, Niu Pengfei’s is backed by someone else."

"This world is really changing. Even we, born in this era, are finding this incredible." Caixue looked at Chu Yu and whispered, "Have you thought of joining a super power?"

"Hm?" Chu Yu’s eyebrows danced, Was this girl here to recruit him?

Caixue looked at Chu Yu seriously, "In today’s climate, there is only one safe place, that is the government."

"Oh?" Chu Yu looked at her.

"Many people think that the government is very weak. They think that with the entrance of the ancient sects, the balance of power would be broken soon." Caixue sipped her tea, her fingers knocking lightly on the table, "But in actuality, such an opinion is seriously misguided!"

"I had never thought that the government was weak, they still control society." Chu Yu said.

"The number of people who are as clear minded as you are few and far between."

Caixue was honest, "In actuality, the moment the world had changed, the government had already gathered a large amount of resources. Since the early days, we had already gathered unimaginable resources. As such, even though we have kept a low profile, we are not weak"

Chu Yu looked at Caixue, "So? Are you trying to recruit me on behalf of the government?"

"No, you are mistaken, I am a disciple of the Shang Qing Sect!" This was the first time Caixue had told an outsider about her sect.

She smiled at Chu Yu, "Tai Qing, Shang Qing and Yu Qing are the three strongest sects in the current world. They have kept a good relationship with the government all this while. Other than Xiao Zhen... the government is also protected by the three Qing sects!

Caixue looked at Chu Yu, "If you were alone, then it would be okay not to join a sect. In this day and age, as long as you have a superior manual and good talent, the presence of a master is inconsequential."

"

"However..." Caixue sighed, "We still have friends, family. And our clan!"

"If you join the Shang Qing Sect, then your parents and even your clan can join the Shang Qing sect... and even get protection from the three Qings!".

Caixue looked at Chu Yu, "Isn’t your sister in Tai Qing? Saintess Chu Xi! Hehe, she is a powerful lady. However, if you join Shang Qing, then the Chu Clan would not have to worry ever again."

"Ah, so you are representing your sect." Chu Yu smiled.

"I am serious." Caixue looked into Chu Yu’s eyes, "This is an invitation from me and my sect. Even if you reject us, there would be no issue."

Chu Yu nodded, "Please let me think about it."
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 139: Servant of God

"You’re courting death!"

The youth’s eyebrows twitched, and he shot an icy glare, his lips curled in a mocking sneer.

A Xiantian cultivator attacking a King’s Realm cultivator?

Does he know how limited his strength is?

Is this some kind of a joke?

The self-proclaimed servant of a god laughed coldly, and a golden light began radiating from his body.

That light rapidly receded inwards, cloaking his body like a golden armour.

Then, he pointed with a finger towards Chu Yu’s incoming fist.

He was confident that a finger was more than sufficient to block the attack.

A deluded Xiantian Qi cultivator battling a King’s Realm cultivator — does Chu Yu not realise that the difference in power was simply too great?

This finger, a reflection of terrifying power, suppressed Chu Yu like an insurmountable mountain.

It was even more terrifying because there were no ripples of power throughout the tiny dining room.

This required a precise mastery over the level of one’s power.

The power of the attack was concentrated on the target, resulting in greater damage.

Caixue’s eyes widened in worry.

The situation unfolded too quickly for her to have the time to respond.

Now, she could only hope that Chu Yu could block against the youth’s assault.

Everything happened too suddenly for them to react.

Consequently, Chu Yu’s fist made contact with the youth’s finger.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze!

The two cultivators’ expressions were crystal clear.

Chu Yu exuded a calm, nonchalant composure that was void of any emotion.

On the contrary, the youth’s face was contorted with pride, eyes filled with a ruthlessly condescending look.

The youth’s finger flashed brilliant gold, and seemed to exert its superiority over everything else!

Heavenly Guardian’s Finger!

Among the known sacred arts, the highly advanced Heavenly Guardian’s Finger is enough to cause death to the victim.

The youth seemed to have seen the death of deluded Chu Yu by his finger, causing him to reveal a grin.

And then.

Boom!

Ka cha!

The youth’s golden finger seemed to be...crumbling into pieces!

"OUCH!"

The youth’s face stiffened, and he let out a savage scream.

Even with acupuncture, the pain is nearly intolerable. What more can be said about the extreme pain from his finger crumbling apart!

The youth was considerably powerful, and he could be arrogant of the fact that no one of his age stood on the same level with him.

Nevermind his peers; he could even dominate the more experienced cultivators who stood in his way.

It had not crossed his mind that a weakling like Chu Yu would cause his body to crumble.

This was unacceptable and intolerable to the youth. His pain intensified the feeling of frenzy within him.

But this wasn’t over!

When Chu Yu punched his fist towards the youth’s finger, he raised his leg towards the youth for a kick.

His punch and his kick were timed to be simultaneously executed.

However, the strong King’s Realm cultivator had only noticed Chu Yu’s incomparably swift fist.

Hence, when the youth wailed over the crumbling of his finger, Chu Yu landed a kick in between the legs of the youth.

Bang!

A muffled sound was heard.

A wave of cracking sounds...

OUCH OUCH OUCH OUCH!

F*ck!

The young King’s Realm cultivator had tragically let loose a series of howls.

Then, he fell on the floor and lost his consciousness.

Chu Yu calmly retracted his leg, and looked towards the dumbfounded Caixue, chuckling "Excuse my poor skills..."

"Are you really Chu Yu?"

Caixue stared at Chu Yu, her eyes filled with bewilderment.

She recognised that the Chu Yu of today is vastly different from his past self, knowing from the news abound.

However, she had not imagined that Chu Yu’s prowess had improved to such a formidable extent.

That was a King’s Realm cultivator!

Not one of those puny cultivators!

And what did she see?

An immensely powerful and young King’s Realm cultivator, beaten to a pulp by a punch and kick....

The key was Chu Yu’s ruthless kick.

Although Caixue did not have testicles, she could imagine the horrendous pain inflicted upon them.

"Hey, if it isn’t the real me, you’re guaranteed a replacement," Chu Yu joked. He walked over to the youth and carried him over.

" I am..." The youth stuttered. "The Butterfly Lord...attendant...how dare you do this to me! The Butterfly Lord...he will not forgive you!"

The youth woke from his state of unconsciousness when Chu Yu lifted him up, painfully stuttering those words.

Chu Yu raised his hand, exclaiming "Shut up!".

"How dare you!" cried the youth.

Slap!

"You…"

Slap!

The youth finally fell silent, but the malevolent glint in his eyes remained.

Chu Yu dragged him by his collar, glancing sideways at him as they moved.

"Chu Yu, what are you going to do about him?" questioned Caixue,

Chu Yu snickered. "Interrogation with torture!"

Thereafter, he disappeared through the door of the room with the youth.

When Caixue gave chase, Chu Yu’s body was nowhere to be seen.

She stomped her feet, rolled her eyes and grunted. "He’s still the same as ever — cold on the outside and yet caring, never wanting to implicate me in these complicated affairs."

"He’s a nice chap, but a pity that he’s taken…" Caixue sighed deeply.

Chu Yu utilised the sacred art of haste, bolstering his speed and disappearing from Yan Jing City in a flash.

The bystanders were left dumbfounded, as they witnessed Chu Yu disappearing in a flash with a body that he dragged out from the teahouse.

"He brazenly dragged the man and disappeared?"

"Yes, that’s how he left…"

"Well then, chase after him!"

"Why aren’t you chasing yet?"

"How can I ever catch up to him?"

Many bystanders emerged from the shadows, and looked disappointedly towards the direction that Chu Yu had vanished.

The news of Chu Yu’s return would spread like wildfire across Yan Jing City.

"It’s unthinkable how an unknown youth from the underworld clan could possess such monstrous strength!"

"If not for the Three Leaves Sect and the people who want to harm his girlfriend, I reckon that people would still be unaware of Chu Yu’s fighting prowess..."

"Wasn’t it such that Song Hong gave a pill to him for the recovery of his skills? How did he become so strong, so quickly?"

"Brother, you should not be afraid. You aren’t a cultivator. The real top-notch pills can bestow god-like powers!"

"My goodness! A pill could actually be so effective? God-like powers...that’s unbelievable."

"There’s an ancient legend that a single pill could make a man become a deity...now that I’ve thought about it, I had just witnessed the evidence."

A swift and decisive battle from Chu Yu shook the capital once again.

Only this time, do the people truly begin to respect him.

Even to the point where people viewed him as among China’s Heaven’s Pride Board…...

In the last time that China’s Heaven’s Pride Board was reshuffled, the 7 powerful individuals lost to a person named Lin Shi. Thereafter, Lin Shi was beaten by Chu Yu.

From that moment on, China’s Heaven’s Pride Board ceased to exist.

There are many youths who aspire to be famous, but those who have the bravado to name themselves among China’s Heaven’s Pride Board were few.

Even if some of them had the courage to do, they lack the ability. Self-declaring themselves to among the China’s Heaven’s Pride Board would only result in them becoming a laughing stock.

This is the Age of Information, and information spreads like a wildfire.

When Chu Yu dragged the youth to leave the capital, various accounts of the incident have already been spread.

The youth kept his mouth tightly shut during the trip, as he was cowed into silence by Chu Yu’s fearsome power.

When the youth was with the Butterfly Lord, many elders of various clans treated him courteously. How could someone treat him in this manner?

Chu Yu deserves to die for the way that he treated him!

When the Butterfly Lord comes to Earth, he will avenge me. It’s futile to attempt getting any information out of me!

Bai Guang fumed with rage while trying to think.

But soon, his train of thought was broken.

He was dragged by Chu Yu throughout the entire journey towards a place that was completely surrounded by cliffs!

The highest mountain peak here was easily 4 to 5 km above sea level, and the area was ringed with steep cliffs.

Chu Yu adopted an ape-like posture, and climbed to the highest mountain peak in the blink of an eye.

The violent winds raged on, blowing Chu Yu’s hair and causing his clothes to rustle.

Bai Guang gave Chu Yu a puzzled look, and chuckled "Don’t expect to get any information from me..."

Chu Yu, who has been dragging Bai Guang so far, took out a handphone and pressed the button to record.

Suddenly, he let go of Bai Guang!

"Ah!"

Bai Guang was scared out of his wits!

Although Bai Guang was a King’s Realm cultivator, he was now held in a remote location by Chu Yu, being unable to cast any spells even if his strength was sufficient. Should he fall from this height, his bones and tendons would be crushed.

What an unorthodox tactic!

Shouldn’t Chu Yu first attempt to interrogate me, and then throw me to my doom if I do not cooperate?

Why did he let me fall immediately!

This brat will definitely fly down to grab me, and then threaten me to obey!

During the fall, Bai Guang’s mind was racing with these thoughts.

However, even as he was rapidly approaching the deep pit at the bottom, Chu Yu’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

At the moment before Bai Guang fainted, only one thought remained in his mind: Damn…...that bastard!

Chu Yu pressed the button to stop recording, and then descended from the mountain’s peak. He pulled Bai Guang out of the pit.

This young and pitiful King’s Realm cultivator’s body seemed to be well but missing of bones.

Soft…...

When Chu Yu pulled him out, his original form had materialised.

Chu Yu was disgusted by the white worm that laid bare before him.

None would have imagined that a King’s Realm cultivator had the form of a worm…...

"This is so disgusting!"

Chu Yu frowned, raised his leg and kicked Bai Guang twice.

When Bai Guang slowly regained his consciousness and realised that he had assumed his original form, he let out a piercing scream.

But that scream was immediately followed by a wail of pain.

"The Butterfly Lord will not let you off! Earthling, he will rip the bones out of your body!" Bai Guang shrieked.

"Explain your motives and your origin. In return, I’ll make it painless for you," Chu Yu demanded.

"Don’t be so arrogant Earthling; in the eyes of the Butterfly Lord, you’re not even as worthy as trash!" Bai Guang retorted, his eyes filled with rage. "We are from Mars!"
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 138: Alien?

Kaboom!

The club’s walls were once again the victim as Niu Pengfei smashed a hole in them.

Niu Pengfei’s body flew over the huge courtyard of the club and landed next to the road outside.

Chu Yu himself was very happy with the accuracy and control he had over that punch!

When the boss of the Flying Dragon Club, Long Fei, heard that Chu Yu was here, he tried to rush down and began to pray that nothing bad was going to happen.

Just as he thought about it, a call came through from the club to tell him that a hole had been smashed in the wall and someone had been thrown on the streets.

Long Fei, who had been extremely worried, sighed when he heard the news.

This confused the people beside him.

"Don’t have to be surprised, it is very nice of him not to destroy our entire clubhouse!"

Long Fei laughed bitterly.

Times were different, the Chu Clan youth whom he had looked down on previously had grown up.

Even though many would still not fear and respect Chu Yu, Long Fei believed that this man would awe the world in the near future! noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Long Fei’s car arrived at the entrance to the clubhouse, but he did not enter.

Instead, he looked at the youth on the pavement, his face completely swollen.

Many people surrounded that man, pointing at him.

Long Fei looked at the youth and stiffened. Then he whispered to his driver, "Let’s go."

"Ah? Go? Boss, where to?" The driver was stunned.

"Anywhere will do, we can’t stay here. This water is too deep for us."

Long Fei sighed, his expression bitter.

Even though he was one of the more influential people in Yan Jing, he was a nobody in the face of the true cultivators.

They would be able to kill him many times over.

When Long Fei saw Niu Pengfei, the youthful talent who had been making waves in the capital, beaten up, he knew that he could not say anything even if his entire clubhouse was smashed.

At this point, Niu Pengfei finally regained consciousness.

He felt the group of people surrounding him and immediately released the strong aura in his body.

Boom!

Almost like a storm, it threw all the spectators off their feet.

Many of them flew into the air and fell to the ground, moaning.

"Remember next time that there are dangers to spectating!"

Niu Pengfei’s eyes were ice cold as he walked back towards the Flying Dragon Club.

However, before a minute was up, he was sent flying out and he crashed into the pavement with a huge bang.

This time, even though the people didn’t approach, they all looked at him with hatred from afar.

This time, Niu Pengfei did not faint. He could not help but scream and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Inside the clubhouse, Caixue looked at Chu Yu and complimented, "Good job Chu Yu, I never imagined that your battle prowess would be so legendary."

Caixue’s eyes revealed her subtle excitement.

Chu Yu was speechless, he thought to himself, Yet another violent girl.

Qiao Na could not help but murmur, "We were all classmates, yet the attacks are so vicious..."

Caixue’s gaze was penetrating as she glared at Qiao Na. After unsettling her, she said, "Enough is enough."

Qiao Na’s face paled and didn’t say anymore.

Even though she had tried to cultivate, she couldn’t even break through a single acupoint.

She could not take the bitterness and could not take the grinding and loneliness.

She had always fancied herself as a talent because she was great academically.

Even though the world had changed for more than 30 years, there were many who were still apathetic towards it, like Qiao Na.

This attitude had been similar to people’s attitudes towards nuclear weapons before the world had recovered. Even though they knew about it, no one truly cared about it. So what if they existed? They can’t throw it on my head!

However, if they ever witnessed the destructive power of a nuclear bomb, they would be frightened beyond belief.

People like Qiao Na spoke without thinking.

After being rebuffed by Caixue did she realize that some things were not as she imagined!

Caixue also glanced at Chu Yu and said, "Sorry, I never expected things to end up like this."

Chu Yu was calm and nodded, then he smiled apologetically at his schoolmates, "I am sorry, I didn’t want things to turn out like this, we will meet again if fate allows."

Then he looked at the shocked Meng Fei and said, "Find me if you need help, you have my contact."

Then he left.

Everyone was stupefied, their expressions complicated.

Anyone who could enter Yan Jing university was relatively smart. After hearing what Chu Yu said they finally understood why gods and mortals should not mix. .

They were vastly different!

Many of them only heaved a sigh of relief when Chu Yu and Caixue left.

Then, many people looked at Meng Fei with envy!

Everyone understood how lucky he was to be treated as a friend by Chu Yu.

Meng Fei himself smiled bitterly, shook his head and left, ignoring everyone.

In a quiet tea house.

Caixue and Chu Yu were seated in a small room.

"How should I say this, I began cultivating from a young age. At that time, I hated it. On the other hand, I enjoyed the activities that ordinary people could do.

Caixue smiled, then said, "They all told me I was a talent and my family found me a great amount of superior cultivation resources. Then, amidst my dislike of cultivation, I continued to train. I only began to embrace my identity as a cultivator after I entered the Invigorated Meridian Stage in high school."

Chu Yu gasped internally, there were indeed many talents in the world today. He had never expected Caixue to be such a talented cultivator.

Even though she never told him her legacy, Chu Yu opined that anyone who could enter Xiantian at this age without using any pills must have unimaginable backing.

"When I met you in university, I had a feeling that you were not ordinary." Caixue smiled. She was beautiful when she smiled. Then she whispered, "The truth confirmed my assessment."

Chu Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly. Her love had given him quite a bit of pressure.

Caixue looked at Chu Yu seriously, "You must be careful, there have been many people investigating you recently. Those who wanted to check up on you via the government have been rebuffed by me."

"Investigate me?" Chu Yu frowned.

Caixue nodded, "Mm, they want to find out what kind of secrets you are holding on to. Even though the government doesn’t have much information on you, I do not want you to be investigated, so I classified all information regarding you as Top Secret."

Chu Yu looked at Caixue, slightly astonished. She was effectively telling Chu Yu that she was from the government.

"Thank you..."

"It’ll be meaningless if you have to thank me." Caixue’s eyes swept over Chu Yu, "Actually, after finding out about you and Lin Shimeng, I have been hesitating. I do not want to come between the two of you. But at the same time, I do not give up on things I like. Especially men."

Chu Yu looked at her speechlessly.

Caixue smiled, "You don’t have to look like this, and you don’t have to feel any pressure. In this life, I have never loved another man other than you and my dad."

"How is this not giving me pressure?" Chu Yu exclaimed, "This is a mountain of pressure!"

"Then you’ll have to live with it, you’re a guy anyways." Caixue smiled then asked, "What are your plans now?"

Chu Yu thought about it, "I’ll probably go explore some ancient monuments? Then I’ll improve myself. I aim to become powerful before the world breaks out in chaos."

Caixue stared deeply into Chu Yu, "This time, I had called you over because I wanted to tell you some things face to face. I didn’t expect that... you already know. Then I shan’t beat around the bush. We all think so too. This world will become extremely crowded in the near future."

Chu Yu replied, "To be honest, it’s already a little crowded now."

Caixue nodded, "Mm, for example, people like Niu Pengfei."

Chu Yu also nodded, "Do you know who is backing him...."

Caixue shook her head, "I don’t, but I think it might not be from this world."

Same guess!

Then Caixue continued, "But it doesn’t have to come from outside our solar system." She looked at Chu Yu, "It could be something from another planet within the solar system."

"Aliens?" Chu Yu could not help but laugh.

Caixue laughed too, "I don’t think the fact that aliens exist is shocking anymore?"

However, both of them did not expect that an alien would be knocking on their doors very soon.

A young man, calling himself the servant of a god, flung open the doors to the teahouse and stared at Chu Yu and Caixue. "Do you both know your crime?"

Chu Yu frowned, "Who are you?"

"I am the servant of a god..." The youth said arrogantly.

"Servant of a god?" Chu Yu murmured, "Slave?"

"Commoner! How dare you call me a slave? Even your ancestors have to kneel before me! Have their descendants all become so reckless and rude?"

The youth was extremely arrogant and looked down on Chu Yu and Caixue.

He was slightly nicer towards Caixue, "You’re not bad, you may have a chance to be a servant to the god too, then you can be like me!"

Caixue was dismissive, "Be a slave? No thanks."

"Go to hell!"

This youth immediately attacked and directed a terrifying aura right at Caixue.

Chu Yu block Caixue with his body then glared at this youth exuding King’s Realm aura and said solemnly, "Scram!"

Then, he punched.
Limitless

Limitless - Chapter 137: Conflict

University lasted four years, three and a half to be exact, since everyone left school to pursue their dreams in the final semester.

In those three and a half years, Chu Yu spent half his time in the laboratory.

Back then, he was manically trying to break the seal on his body, where would he find the energy to think about other things?

He didn’t even have much contact with Lin Shimeng... who was Lin Shi now.

During his entire time in university, he had virtually never used his vertical eye to observe others.

Just like how no one expected him to be such an expert, he had never expected... that Niu Pengfei would be this powerful.

Xiantian!

A youthful Xiantian!

Such a person was rare, even in the superior ancient sects.

Chu Yu had decided to go to school because he had no other choice. He could not cultivate!

However, Niu Pengfei was definitely not faced with the same situation.

Would that mean that this relatively low profile student was actually cultivating in the shadows?

Chu Yu frowned, finding it a little unbelievable.

Niu Pengfei did not look at Caixue, instead staring coldly at Chu Yu and repeated, "Chu Yu, do you know the error of your ways?"

At this point, Caixue’s body also exploded with a wave of aura. Chu Yu did not have to look to know what level that aura was at.

Xiantian cultivator!

Yet another Xiantian!

How was this possible?

Chu Yu was stunned.

As for the other students, most of them were completely stupefied.

They all stared at Niu Pengfei and Caixue, wide eyed.

They couldn’t even understand what was going on. Why was it that both of them were beginning to get aggressive?

More importantly, how could it be that they were both exuding such powerful and majestic auras?

It was almost like two large mountains were crushing down on them.

The two of them did not reveal the full extent of the aura, else, everyone bar Chu Yu woud be immobilized on the ground.

Niu Pengfei was slightly shocked, he squinted at Caixue, "You too?"

Caixue smiled icily, "Do you think everyone is like you? Willing to be a lackey?"

"You..." Niu Pengfei’s expression turned ugly as he glared at Caixue and said coldly, "Don’t meddle in this affair, it has nothing to do with you."

Niu Pengfei looked at Chu Yu, "Aren’t you very powerful? I thought even a Xiantian cultivator was not your match? Ah... don’t think that I didn’t know that you had the help of Lin Shimeng last time. If it wasn’t for her help, can trash like you even defeat a Xiantian cultivator? This time it is the same story, you choose to stand behind a girl. Can you have some guts and fight me like a man?"

Chu Yu looked at Niu Pengfei, completely stunned, not only did he open his vertical eye, he began to use the Pill Bending Technique.

The Pill Bending Technique was able to find traces of pills anywhere!

Chu Yu did not believe that Niu Pengfei was a talent.

Even though there were many talents in this world, Niu Pengfei was definitely not want of them.

Chu Yu would be more willing to accept the fact that Caixue was a talent and had been cultivating.

Using the Pill Bending Technique, Chu Yu found a large amount of superior pill residue.

Indeed!

Chu Yu was slightly shocked.

Niu Pengfei had actually taken a pill which launched him into Xiantian.

Where did he get it from?

"Why? Are you scared speechless?" Niu Pengfei could not resist but laugh arrogantly.

The other students paled, but they all looked at Niu Pengfei with hatred.

They did not really like Chu Yu, but no matter what, they were schoolmates.

Why would Niu Pengfei pick a fight with someone he had no feud with?

Chu Yu used his vertical eye to observe Niu Pengfei’s body. He was trying to analyze the pros and cons of such a pill.

Through his analysis, Chu Yu found out that Niu Pengfei had only attained the Small Circle of the Acupoint Charging and Invigorated Meridian Realms

This would mean that the pill he took was not the type of pill which launched someone into Xiantian, whilst ensuring that the foundation was fully completed.

However, a pill like this would be considered a real treasure to many.

"Kneel down and talk to me!" Niu Pengfei began to get impatient with Chu Yu’s lack of words.

He gave a cold snort, a wave of energy rushing out from his body, crashing down on Chu Yu like a mountain.

If Chu Yu’s cultivation level was any lower, he would be locked to his spot.

Caixue snorted and waved her hand. A terrifying wave of energy rushed towards Niu Pengfei’s suppressive force.

Niu Pengfei stopped his attack and the energy disappeared instantly. Then, he smiled coldly and looked at Chu Yu condescendingly.

"You are indeed a boneless man standing in the shadows of ladies! What right does a trash like you have to let someone like Caixue like you for so many years?"

Niu Pengfei’s expression was twisted, his gaze on Chu Yu ferocious and mocking.

Chu Yu looked at Niu Pengfei, deep in thought. He had completely ignored Niu Pengfei’s words.

He was wondering, how did he manage to get to Xiantian?

Did such a terrifyingly powerful sect exist? How did they manage to refine such a pill after just 30 years of the world recovering.

Or is it that this pill... never originated from this world?

If Lin Shi could bring him various items from the Mirror World, could it be that... other Mirror World talents had already made the crossing?

For example... that demonic girl Xu Xiaoxian?

Or maybe... the mysterious black robed man who had smashed the Three Leaves Sect?

However, these were merely guesses.

In Chu Yu’s opinion, as the world recovers, the ancient sects would have more of such talents and capabilities.

He did not use his vertical eye to observe Caixue, but he did use the Pill Bender Technique.

Chu Yu was stunned, Caixue did not have any superior pill residue in her body!

This would mean that the girl who had chased him for four years was a true talent!

Chu Yu began to make sense of it after thinking about Caixue’s origins.

Even though the government was low profile and never interfered in the conflicts of the cultivation world, it did not mean they did not have the ability!

In actual fact, even before the world had recovered, the authorities had held a large amount of information about the cultivation world.

It had been this way since the ancient days, but this fact had always eluded the masses.

Chu Yu’s thoughts flashed by quickly.

Caixue looked at Niu Pengfei furiously. She really regretted asking Chu Yu to come over. She felt extremely guilty having to make Chu Yu go through such a humiliating experience.

"Chu Yu, let’s go!"

Caixue looked at Chu Yu apologetically.

Chu Yu finally recovered and smiled at Caixue. Then he looked to Niu Pengfei, "What did you just say?"

Everyone looked at Chu Yu, completely stunned. Was this guy faking it or was he really so brave? Can’t he tell that Niu Pengfei wants to harm him?

Niu Pengfei looked coldly at Chu Yu, "I said, you’re a boneless man hiding behind ladies! And, kneel down and admit your mistakes!"

"Do I have a feud with you?" Chu Yu asked solemnly.

"No, I just don’t like your face." Niu Pengfei said coldly.

"So I have no feud with you, and you just don’t like my face?" Chu Yu confirmed.

Niu Pengfei smiled coldly, "Yes, so what?"

Kaboom!

Chu Yu jumped into action, he raised his palm and slapped Niu Pengfei.

Niu Pengfei roared, "You..."

Before he could finish, a crisp smack echoed out.

Pa!

This sound had stunned everyone in the club.

Niu Pengfei clutched his face, visibly stupefied as he looked at Chu Yu.

"Scram."

Chu Yu frowned and looked at him, "I don’t care about why you want to harm me, and I don’t care who is backing you. We were classmates. You humiliated me, I slapped you, now we are even. Now let me give you some advice. Someone like you who entered Xiantian without having a good foundation is really not powerful."

Niu Pengfei’s eyes glimmered as he looked at Chu Yu.

Chu Yu continued, "Even a slightly stronger Invigorated Meridian martial artist would find it easy to defeat you. If I didn’t guess wrongly, you probably don’t even know a single sacred art?"

Caixue looked at Chu Yu in amazement.

This gave Chu Yu a headache, why would someone as great as Caixue like him?

Niu Pengfei’s eyes flashed with hate, fear spreading across his face.

He did not understand. That man had told him that once he entered Xiantian, there would be very few people his age who would be his match.

He didn’t have to do anything else, all he needed to do was transform his energy into an aura. That would be enough to choke someone!

If he directed his aura at someone, he could break their bones and inflict lethal damage!

So why is it that... Chu Yu is unaffected?

He really did not have any feud with Chu Yu, but the person backing him had told him to humiliate Chu Yu and not let Chu Yu be able to face his schoolmates ever again.

He then told Niu Pengfei to post it on social media and reveal the truth behind this piece of trash!

But this was too far from what he had expected. Chu Yu’s slap had shattered Niu Pengfei’s dreams.

He, who had entered Xiantian immediately, was being trashed!

His ego was being trampled on by others.

Niu Pengfei’s eyes turned red as he glared viciously at Chu Yu. He grit his teeth, "I’ll kill you!"

As he spoke, he began to move.

His speed was many times faster than the speed of sound. Few people in the crowd could see his actions clearly.

In the next moment, Niu Pengfei was sent flying.

Chu Yu’s icy voice could be heard, "If you don’t want to scram, I will help you and send you flying!"

True Martial World - Chapter 271: Yi Yun’s Score

"Master..." The two disciples looked at one another with odd expressions. "These test transcripts… were they done by cultivators from Tai Ah Divine City?"

"Of course!" Yuehua was curious, "Is there a problem?"

Yuehua's answer made the two disciples speechless, "Master, I think it is best that you look at it in person. There is one test transcript that is very odd..."

"Odd?"

Yuehua was slightly stunned. Recalling the cultivators present, Yuehua did not find anyone odd. Besides Luo Huo'er, there were only a few others, like Yang Yuefeng, who were barely acceptable.

And this acceptable standard was only by using the Tai Ah Divine City's standards. But the cultivators that came to the Tai Ah Divine City every year added up to a million people over the span of 500 years. In the long river of history, these elites would usually slowly be buried.

Yuehua followed her two disciples to the other room where they were grading the test transcripts.

In the pile of test transcripts, one test transcript had been singled out.

Although this test transcript had been previously graded, there was no score on it.

"It's this piece..." One of the two girls said. They had already worked out the score to that transcript.

It was only because they felt it was too ridiculous that they did not dare to fill it.

"Oh?" Yuehua took the scroll and scanned it with her mental powers. She first looked at the simplest thing, the three energy reservoirs.

It was filled up to 45%!

Compared to Luo Huo'er's 60%, it was nothing much. But according to the Tai Ah Divine City's standards, this was definitely the best. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

By filling it up to 45%, a score of 151 was given.

"Barely satisfactory." Yuehua gave this evaluation in her mind. One could not see much from simply the filling quantity. Next was the energy control, which was the 182 fine rune paths.

Seeing golden light emitting from it, Yuehua could already sense something. She did not use her mental powers to quickly scan it. She thoroughly checked every rune path, just as carefully as when she checked Luo Huo'er's.

"Perfect, perfect, perfect..."

Yuehua analyzed the methods of the examinee and her expression grew solemn. This person's precision in his energy control was surprising.

"It's not any worse than Luo Huo'er!"

Yuehua was very surprised. Energy control was much more important than the quantity of energy extracted as it depended on talent.

If a person really could be comparable to Luo Huo'er up to a certain extent, then it would be a really big surprise!

"The Tai Ah Divine City actually has two monstrous geniuses appearing at once..."

Yuehua muttered to herself as she carried on looking at it, "Perfect, perfect, and still perfect!"

It was perfect up to the 100th fine rune path.

Following that, 110, 120, 130!

Up to the 130th fine path rune, every path had been perfectly filled, this stunned Yuehua greatly.

She had originally thought that this examinee might be able to barely catch up with Luo Huo'er, but she never expected that his energy control would exceed Luo Huo'er’s!

Luo Huo'er first defect came after completing 126 fine path runes.

But this person maintained his perfectly.

140, 150...

Yuehua was very shocked!

She slowly began to become short of breath. She stared unblinkingly at the test transcript.

Although she was eager to know the final result, Yuehua's grading speed became slower and slower.

Every rune path was examined carefully by her.

It was still perfect up to 170!

Could this test transcript be...

Yuehua's expression turned incredulous.

The more she wanted to know the result, the slower she graded. Yuehua's expression really looked as if she had just read a compendium left behind by an ancient Desolate Heaven Master.

180, 181, 182...

All the 182 fine rune paths were perfect!

A perfect score!

Yuehua froze. It took a while before she was able to regain her composure.

She had deliberately prepared the test to make Luo Huo'er sweat. It was something that would definitely make all the other Tai Ah Divine City examinees complain. But yet, there was someone who managed to get full marks on energy control!

She finally understood why her two disciples came looking for her with such odd expressions. This definitely did not look like a examinee's answer script, but like the model answer scheme!

364 points from the energy control, with 151 points for energy extraction.

This test transcript scored a total of 515 points!

Luo Huo'er had only earned 494 points, yet this person scored 515!

This was a ridiculous score!

Who was this monster?

Yuehua took a deep breath and turned the scroll over. The examinee's names were written behind the scrolls.

And all she saw was two words, "Yi Yun".

Yi Yun?

Who's Yi Yun?

Yuehua did not pay attention to the Tai Ah Divine City's rookie ranking competition, so it was natural that she had never heard of this name.

"Check to see who Yi Yun is!"

Yuehua said to her disciples. It was easy to check on a person in the Tai Ah Divine City. Everyone received an identity token when they entered the Tai Ah Divine City.

Soon, Yuehua received Yi Yun's details and saw Yi Yun's picture.

Seeing the youth's picture, Yuehua became dumbfounded.

How could it be him!?

She never dreamed that Yi Yun would be the youth dressed in linen clothes.

Yuehua had gotten everyone to refine a desolate bone relic, but that youth was standing there like a fool. When he was asked why he did not do anything, the reason was because he did not know the Desolate Heaven technique.

He did not know the Desolate Heaven technique, yet he managed to score 515 points on his test!

Was this a joke?

Although energy extraction was a basic of the Desolate Heaven technique and did not need much Desolate Heaven technique knowledge, it needed both talent and one knowing the methods to extract energy.

In theory, it was possible for those who did not know the Desolate Heaven technique to be good at extracting energies...

But this was in theory. Practically, one had to obtain perfection through practice.

If this person had never attempted to extract energy before and reached such a standard in his first time, then it was too ridiculous!

It was incredible!

Could this kid be bluffing me when he said that he did not know the Desolate Heaven technique? But what would be the point in lying?

Yuehua gripped Yi Yun's test transcript tightly as she read through Yi Yun's details. She noticed that Yi Yun actually came from a small tribal clan in the Cloud Wilderness.

A person from a small tribal clan in the Cloud Wilderness had no background. They were worse off than common civilians. Desolate Heaven Masters were like gods to them. It was common for them to not have any contact between one another.

In other words, when Yi Yun said that he did not know the Desolate Heaven technique, it was likely the truth...

For a person who does not know the Desolate Heaven technique to obtain such an achievement..

Yuehua muttered to herself. It was like she was in a dream.
True Martial World

True Martial World - Chapter 270: Yi Yun’s test transcript

When Yi Yun left the central divine tower's classroom, he did not immediately return to his apartment but decided to first head to the Ten Thousand Pagoda.

Practicing the Desolate Heaven technique required a large amount of desolate beast materials to support it. Only then could one have ample practice.

Large numbers of cultivators of the Tai Ah Divine City went out into the Divine Wilderness daily to hunt desolate beasts. Some aimed to condense or strengthen their Aspect Totems, while others simply wanted to hone their combat skills.

The desolate bones and other materials from the dead desolate beasts would then be left in the Ten Thousand Pagoda for sale.

It wasn’t only Desolate Heaven Master apprentices from the Tai Ah Divine City who would buy these items, even other factions of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom would sometimes make a one-time mass purchase.

"Five Element crocodile's bones, Four Symbols Snake's teeth, Metal-back Eagle's claws, Heavy Armor Giant Rhinoceros' horn..."

Yi Yun created a purchase list according to his understanding of the Desolate Heaven technique.

The cost of these materials ranged from tens of dragon scale runes to above a hundred dragon scale runes.

By buying everything in bulk, Yi Yun quickly spent 20,000 dragon scale runes.

These materials were enough to fill two of Yi Yun's interspatial rings to the brim.

"Practicing the Desolate Heaven technique is truly to spend money like water. Thanks to my previous windfall, I can squander it like this. Any typical cultivator would need to consider before spending anything. It's almost impossible to learn the Desolate Heaven technique in the Tai Ah Divine City. They can only use their family clan's resources while still in their families, learning it from a young age before coming to the Tai Ah Divine City, using the Desolate Heaven technique as a way to be self-sufficient."

Many Desolate Heaven Master apprentices would buy materials and practice with them. At the same time, they would use these materials to produce desolate bone relics they could use to exchange for some income. Only then could they barely make ends meet.

"Not only do I want to practice the Desolate Heaven technique, I also need to find time to go to the Wilderness Divine Hall to practice the 'Myriad Beast Totem'. Although I am not lacking in dragon scale runes, I'm lacking in time..."

With this thought in mind, he headed towards his apartment in the central divine tower.

At that moment, at the 98th floor of the central divine tower, Yuehua had just returned to her room. This was a large 300 square meter room. The furnishings in the room were simple, quaint and extremely elegant.

The 98th floor of the central divine tower had four rooms. Each room came equipped with a cultivation room, an alchemy lab and a relic room. The area totaled up to above a thousand square meters. The 98th floor of the central divine tower had very dense Yuan Qi, dense enough for even for four sages to cultivate. It was quite nice. More sages and the concentration of the Yuan Qi would become insufficient. So no matter how big the rooms were, it was not a waste.

Yuehua walked into her hall and took off her long robe. She then took out the student's test transcripts from her interspatial ring and placed them on a table.

She picked up a single transcript from the pile. It was Luo Huo'er's scroll.

There were also two other girls present that looked to be around twenty. They casually walked over and picked up the rest of the transcripts.

A girl laughed and said, "Master, since you are eyeing Luo Huo'er, why don't you just take her in as a disciple. Why do you want to use this method of teaching a public class? There will be all sorts of nondescript characters entering your class."

These two girls were Yuehua's disciples. They may look twenty years old, but they were several hundred years old.

Yuehua shook her head, "Luo Huo'er's background is mysterious. The cultivation technique she cultivates and the methods of her Desolate Heaven technique is quite different from the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's orthodox heritage. There are even several aspects in which Luo Huo'er's methods exceed the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom’s."

"A few days ago, many large factions of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom came with all sorts of favorable terms in an attempt to pull her in, or even just befriend her, but she maintained a distance from them. She even did that to the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's royal family. Who knows, the faction she comes from might be even higher than the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's… If that is the case, she most likely has a master."

Yuehua had given it much thought. If Luo Huo'er had deep affections for her master, she would most likely reject her offer to be a disciple, which would make things awkward.

But Luo Huo'er's talent made Yuehua want to teach her. She had a feeling that Luo Huo'er's future achievements would exceed her own.

By building a master-disciple relationship with Luo Huo'er, especially with her powerful background, it would be very beneficial, not only for Yuehua but also for the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's royal family.

"I will look at Luo Huo'er's test transcript. I leave the rest for you."

Yuehua casually said. Actually, due to her strong mental powers, it would be easy for her to grade a hundred transcripts quickly. But she would not do so because these people were not her disciples.

"Yes!"

The two girls took the transcripts and left.

They had previously taken a similar test and knew Yuehua's marking criteria.

Yuehua tested two main points when assessing the Desolate Heaven Master apprentices' energy extraction.

One was the quantity of energy extracted, the other was the energy control precision.

The more energy that could be extracted, the stronger the refined desolate bone relic.

And the better one's control was, the higher the success rate of refining a desolate bone relic would be.

There were a total of 182 fine rune paths in the golden rune in of a test scroll.

These 182 fine rune paths tested the Desolate Heaven Master apprentices’ energy extraction and control.

Only a perfect extraction of every strand of Power of Desolates, with a perfect control would allow one be able to perfectly follow the 182 fine rune paths.

And besides the golden rune's 182 fine rune paths, there were also three other energy reservoirs.

These three energy reservoirs tested the amount of Power of Desolates a Desolate Heaven Master apprentice could extract.

The more energy the reservoir had, the harder it would be to fill it.

At the Purple Blood realm and Yuan Foundation realm, filling up the three energy reservoirs was almost impossible.

As for the way the scores were calculated.

They were done according to this metric.

For the energy control's 182 fine rune paths, perfectly filling a line earned two points, an imperfect filling earned one point.

There was a total of 364 points.

As for the three energy reservoirs, filling up one was worth 110 points, for a total of 330 points.

The total score was 694, but for a round figure, it was taken to be over 700.

According to past experiences, a typical Desolate Heaven Master apprentice would have an energy control of 140-150 points, and their energy reservoir would be about 80-90 points.

A total of 230-240 points was an acceptable score.

Exceeding 300 was very good.

At 350 points, one was a genius!

Above 400 points.. that was very rare. Even Yuehua's two disciples only managed to score 430-440 points when they took Yuehua's test in their teens.

This result would satisfy Yuehua.

Now, Yuehua was looking forward to Luo Huo'er's test transcript.

She wanted to see how many points a promising Desolate Heaven technique genius that she appreciated would obtain.

As she slowly unfolded the scroll, a rough glance from the sides made Yuehua smile.

Luo Huo'er's results would likely give her a surprise!

By first looking at the three energy reservoirs, she could tell the results with a glance.

When she sank her mental power into the three energy reservoirs, Yuehua could see that Luo Huo'er had filled them up with about 60% of energy.

This was quite a shocking number.

"Energy filling, 198 points."

Following that was the 182 fine rune paths which reflected one's energy control.

It was more important than the energy filling.

As the level of a Desolate Heaven Master increased, their ability to extract energy would increase steadily. But energy control was to a great extent a measure of talent.

The same level of Desolate Heaven Masters had different levels of energy control.

Seeing Luo Huo'er's scroll, Yuehua's eyes lit up. This feeling was like reading an ancient Desolate Heaven Master's compendium. It made her want to explore the unknown and look forward to the surprise.

"Perfect, perfect, perfect..."

With Yuehua's mental strength, she could quickly analyze the 182 fine rune paths' situation in a few seconds. But now, she was looking at each fine rune path Luo Huo'er made, seeing if there were any defects.

"Perfect, perfect, and another perfect!"

Yuehua's eyes lit up more and more. She had checked more than 100 fine rune paths by now, and Luo Huo'er's methods were all perfect.

"Oh… This rune has a defect..."

After checking 126 fine rune paths, a defect appeared. There was one fine rune path which Luo Huo'er did not fill.

This made Yuehua sighed. Although she knew that Luo Huo'er's ability to remain perfect up to now was marvelous, Yuehua who was yearning for perfection still felt a sense of regret when she found a defect.

"This rune path can only earn 1 point."

Yuehua shook her head. She sighed to herself that she was being too greedy. A teenage girl, who could achieve this was already a monster, what else was she looking for...?

The 127th fine rune path was also perfect.

Following that,

perfect and defective runes were interspersed.

The further back it went, the examinees would slowly find their mental strength weakened. Even Luo Huo'er was not an exception. There was no way she could ensure that every single rune path was perfect. Furthermore, they only had 15 minutes for the test.

After the 160th fine rune path, many of them were blank, without any energy.

This situation resulted in zero points.

Adding them all up, Luo Huo'er's energy control reached a total of 296 points!

This was definitely a monstrous score!

296 points, coupled with the other 198 points, Luo Huo'er's total score was on 494 points!

She was just 6 points short of 500!

Seeing this total score, Yuehua took a deep breath. It was extremely rare to obtain more than 400 points. 450 points was virtually impossible, so the difficulty of obtaining close to 500 was obvious.

"Luo Huo'er's future prospects cannot be measured!"

Yuehua was anticipating the future. Such a precious gem one could only come by with luck, not by searching for it.

Yuehua keep the test transcript carefully. A short while later, her two disciples hastily ran into the room.

"Pa!"

The door was flung open.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Yuehua was surprised. Her two disciples came from the royal family and from a reclusive family respectively. They were always well-mannered and elegant. Seldom would they appear so flustered.
True Martial World

True Martial World - Chapter 269: Reconciliation

Extracting energy was extremely simple for Yi Yun. However, injecting the energy into the golden rune required some Desolate Heaven technique knowledge.

He had to understand the reasoning behind the golden rune.

But, with the help of the Purple Crystal, this was not much a problem for Yi Yun either.

Back when Yi Yun cultivated the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique', the process of drawing the picture of the sun using pure Yang Qi was a hundred times more complicated than infusing energy into this golden rune. Even so, Yi Yun had managed to complete it.

It was easy for Yi Yun to just copy the process mechanically.

But, Yi Yun was not satisfied with just that. While he was drawing according to the golden rune, he made sure to understand why the rune was drawn in the manner it was. He had to understand the reasoning behind the golden rune or he would never become a Desolate Heaven Master. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Yi Yun was very quick, the Purple Crystal's pull on the desolate bone's energy was silent, neither did it emit any light. One couldn't even feel any energy fluctuations.

This was the power of the Purple Crystal. Up to this day, everything the Purple Crystal had done went unnoticed by anyone else. The Purple Crystal was also completely ignored the two times Jian Ge examined Yi Yun's body.

Around Yi Yun, many of the others were looking bitter or very focused. Everyone was engrossed in this intense test.

As for Grandmaster Yuehua, she placed all of her attention on Luo Huo'er.

Seeing Luo Huo'er's methods, the undisguised appreciation in Yuehua’s eyes indicated that she treated all the Desolate Heaven Master apprentices as her students, but Luo Huo'er, she was her disciple!

Luo Huo'er was very fast at extracting the desolate bone energy, but Yi Yun was faster. If Yi Yun wanted, he could even complete everything in about 20 seconds.

However, to understand the theories within the golden rune, Yi Yun deliberately slowed down his pace.

But even so, Yi Yun only used about 7 minutes to extract the energy from the desolate bone he chose. There was still plenty of time left, and with Yi Yun's understanding of the golden rune deepening, he could already absorb another two desolate bones' Power of Desolates to fill up the golden rune.

If Yi Yun completely abandoned the attempt to understand the Desolate Heaven technique theories, he could even fill the golden rune up with energy. But, after thinking about it, Yi Yun decided against it. It would be too shocking.

After a second thought, Yi Yun chose another desolate bone, which was lower in quality and extracted its energy, injecting it into the golden rune.

In total, Yi Yun spent 10 minutes doing these things, so there was still 5 minutes left to the end of the test.

Besides Yi Yun, everyone else were basically fighting for each and every second before the test ended, including Luo Huo'er.

After all, the golden rune left by Yuehua had an enormous storage capacity. One could not fill it even if one had hour to do so, what more in only 15 minutes.

Luo Huo'er released a long, deep breath and massaged her sore wrists. She was very pleased with her test manuscript.

Raising her head, she saw Yuehua's look of approval.

Yuehua nodded at Luo Huo'er gently. Luo Huo'er smiled sweetly back as she had a favorable impression of this teacher.

She was not only amiable and kind, she was also pretty.

"Not bad, carry on practicing your methods. In time, you should be able to develop an extraction mystic technique that belongs to you alone."

Yuehua's rare praise was an extremely high appreciation.

When the surrounding cultivators heard this, they became extremely envious.

As they were still working hard on following the golden runes' paths, Luo Huo'er was already on the brink of developing an extraction mystic technique of her own.

It was really exasperating comparing.

Yuehua's appraisal made Luo Huo'er very happy. As she was rolling up her test scroll, she suddenly recalled something and glanced at Yi Yun secretly.

She saw that Yi Yun already stood properly, the scroll in front of him had already been rolled up.

"This rascal, it must have been hard on him… I do not know why he is so obsessed with the Desolate Heaven technique, but seeing his diligence, I hope he learns something..."

Luo Huo'er stopped caring about Yi Yun. Whether it was the desolate bone energy extraction methods or the golden runes on the test scroll, it was all too difficult for Yi Yun in her eyes.

"Hand in your scrolls!"

Yuehua said simply and with that, all the cultivators rolled up their scrolls and handed them over to Yuehua.

"Tomorrow the results will be released in the Divine City's Desolate Heaven Master Society. Class dismissed."

With that said, Yuehua immediately left.

Many of the cultivators left behind were still edgy. They did not know how good or bad their result would be.

"I didn't do well..."

Someone complained.

"Yes, it's quite difficult..." Another person shook his head, "I must say, Brother Yuefeng must have gotten excellent results!"

As a leader of the Chu royal residence's younger generation, Yang Yuefeng had a large circle of acquaintances in the Tai Ah Divine City. Many were happy to associate themselves with him.

At that moment, seeing Yang Yuefeng looking proud of his success, everyone had various thoughts and complimented him.

"Haha! All of you do not have to squeeze me. This test was not easy and my answers can only be considered acceptable."

"It's also good to be acceptable, Brother Yuefeng must still give a treat."

"Yes, Brother Yuefeng is probably going to shock everyone, making all of us envious!"

Many of them joked. It was common for the young masters’ circle to gather together, complimenting each other.

"Everyone must be joking, but since we are all gathered here, let's go to the Divine Moon Restaurant to enjoy ourselves!"

If Yang Yuefeng treated, it had to be at the Divine Moon Restaurant. This had to do with a young master's reputation. There were even different standards of spending in the Divine Moon Restaurant. A typical treat by Yang Yuefeng would cost several hundred dragon scale runes.

"Brother Yuefeng is an old sport!"

"No returning until we are all drunk!"

Their group laughed as they gathered their friends, heading towards the Divine Moon Restaurant.

Seeing this group disappear, Yi Yun leisurely packed his things and left the classroom.

He still had plenty of things to do.

The 'Myriad Beast Totem’ and the 'Truth of the Laws' both needed to be cultivated. Yi Yun's was tight on time.

Besides, in a while, Yi Yun was going to go out to hunt desolate beasts to condense his Aspect Totem. This was the most dangerous place for cultivation in the Tai Ah Divine City.

Many elites had died on this path of cultivation.

"Hey!"

Just as Yi Yun began walking, he heard someone call him. Turning his head, a girl in red was standing in front of him. It was none other than Luo Huo'er.

"Miss Luo..." Yi Yun coughed dryly. Whenever he saw Luo Huo'er, he could not help but recall that scene...

"In the future, if you want to use the training ground, tell me in advance. I do not like to share the training ground with others."

Luo Huo'er pursed her lips as she said.

She wanted to cultivate the 'Sacred Fire Infinite Book', and it was not something others should see.

Yi Yun touched his nose. Although it sounded like a boundary was drawn, this also meant that Luo Huo'er had accepted him as a neighbor. At least, whatever that happened was now in the past and Yi Yun did not need to worry about a crazy girl rushing at him with a sword while staying in the central divine tower.

"Alright. I will probably not use the training ground that often."
