"Young Master, be careful!" The two exchanged a dozen blows before Xiao Cui shouted, her figure flashing away. When she reappeared, it was as if she had three more bodies. She swung her fists at Ye Tian, her attacks more than three times more powerful than before. This was the strongest technique of the Sacred Body Tempering Art.
Phantom Body!
At the highest realm, it was said that one could transform into nine phantoms and maintain the same strength as the main body for a short period of time. Although it was not a physical body, it could still cause a strong attack to the enemy.
At first glance, it was indeed very strong.
However, if a Martial King used it, it would be enough to create several Martial Kings in a short period of time. In the Ye Family, Ye Hongtong and the few elders were all Martial Kings, but none of them could use the ninth, fifth, or sixth level of Phantom Doppelgangers.
No one knew the reason for this except for the person involved.
However, one thing was obvious. The more the Phantom Body reached the end, the fewer clones it had, and the time it could last was also getting shorter. Even Ye Zhan and Ye Qinglin, who were Martial Masters, could only maintain one Phantom Body for a few seconds. Ye Hongtong had never used it before.
"Eh, Little Cui, you can reach three illusions now!”Ye Tian said in surprise, not daring to hold back, his weak energy stirring as his bones crackled and a hazy shadow appeared around him.
With a boom, Xiao Cui's figure flashed, and the three phantoms attacked at the same time. Ye Tian couldn't dodge in time and the phantoms were shattered.
"Young Master, you won't last more than two hours this time!”Xiao Cui clapped her hands and said happily.
"You're celebrating too early!" Although Ye Tian was in a sorry state, another phantom appeared beside him, panting with a smile.
"Hmph, watch me break it for you." Little Cui leaped over and slammed her palm down. There were three phantoms beside her, as if four palms had landed. It was impossible to tell if they were real or fake.
"Eh?" Ye Tian's vision blurred, and a thought flashed through his mind, and he froze.
"Ah!" Xiao Cui's hand that had struck out quickly raised and retracted its strength.
Her small waist twisted violently, and she was so frightened that she took a few steps back. She almost lost her balance and crashed into the courtyard wall. She leaned on her knees and panted heavily.
"Young Master, why didn't you dodge? You almost couldn't hold back! I hurt you!" Xiao Cui stomped her feet and snorted with slight dissatisfaction.
Ye Tian didn't seem to care about him, and every time he thought of something, he would just stand there like a pillar, not moving at all.
After an hour, Ye Tian's brows furrowed in confusion, a faint smile on his face, and a pensive look on his face.
"Show"
Ye Tian's eyes lit up, and his figure flickered, a phantom appearing before him as he pounced at Xiao Cui.
"Ah!" Xiao Cui quickly blocked it with her hand and raised it to attack. Her small hand was numb from the shock and she retreated two or three steps before stopping.
" Hmph, Young Master is shameless. Sneak attack!" Xiao Cui leapt into the air, her feet tapping the ground, her entire body moving like a swan, her speed incredibly fast. Halfway through her leap, three more phantoms appeared beside her, each of them flying towards Ye Tian, almost exactly the same as the real person.
Ye Tian's real body and illusion remained the same, but this illusion was a little different. The eye between his eyebrows was very clear.
Pu! As soon as Ye Tian closed in, Peng! Xiao Cui's three phantoms seemed to be swept by a beam of light and stopped moving, as if they were trapped by something. Ye Tian's phantoms then easily shattered them into nothingness.
"Ah, what's going on?" Little Cui leapt forward, asking Ye Tian in surprise.
"If you want to know, I'll tell you after you beat me!”Ye Tian smiled and withdrew his Qi, the phantom vanishing.
……
"Xiao Cui, do you know the peach garden?" Xiao Cui ground the paper, and Ye Tian spread out the paper, drawing the six eyes of the Vajra Yaksha King.
Suddenly, he felt like something was missing!
He suddenly felt irritated.
" Sigh, my mind is still not firm enough. The day of the trial is getting closer and closer. Looks like Little Cui was right. Although my physique has been tempered by the Dragon-Ear Flower, it's still far from Ye Zhan and the others. I have no choice but to speed up my cultivation progress. If I can't reach the Innate Realm soon, it'll be very difficult for me to stand out!”Ye Tian sighed inwardly and put down his pen.
"Obsession is the inner demon. My first inner demon is the innate demon!”
This was also why Ye Tian had chosen to start with the Vajra Yaksha King. As long as he worked hard, he would one day reach the Innate Realm.
Once something went wrong in the cultivation of the spirit, there were many idiots with brain damage! It was difficult to cultivate to the divine realm. Those who could successfully cultivate to the divine realm were undoubtedly the best guests in Yucheng Country!
"Peach garden? That place seems to be our Ye family's territory!”Xiao Cui replied after some thought, looking at Ye Tian, not knowing why her usually calm Young Master would ask about that deserted place.
"Let's go there and take a look!" Ye Tian put down his brush and said to Xiao Cui.
The streets of Yucheng Country were wide and smooth. The pedestrians on both sides of the street walked as if they were following each other. This was also due to the efforts of the emperor of Yucheng Country.
The entire Yucheng Country's strength was constantly improving. The officials were loyal to their duties, the fields were cultivated, and the trade routes were smooth. In addition, there had been fewer natural and man-made disasters in recent years. How could they not be rich and powerful?
"Young Master! Why don't we take a shortcut to the outer city! It's too crowded here." Xiao Cui followed Ye Tian through the crowded streets, her brows furrowed as she cautiously looked around.
Ye Tian, on the other hand, was smiling and relaxed, not minding the crowd.
"Just follow me!" Ye Tian said with a smile, walking forward without looking back. After passing two or three streets, he stopped and saw a three-story wooden building, the Fragrance Pavilion!
Fragrance Pavilion was not a place that sold needlework, nor was it a tavern, teahouse, or kabuki house!
It was the largest smoke trading place in Yucheng Country. It supplied the various large families, high officials, and even the royal family with a wide variety of smoke, and the quality was high.
"Sir, what do you need?”A clean and neat shop assistant dressed in green walked over and asked respectfully.
"Do you have any incense for sacrifice?”Ye Tian took a deep breath, sensing the faint fragrance of the building. It was neither dry nor greasy, a high-quality fragrance, just like its name suggested!
" Master, you've come to the right place. Our Fragrance Pavilion's largest fragrance supplier in Yucheng Country is the Liu Clan, Song Clan, Ye Clan, the Weiwu Great General, and the royal family..." The blue-robed attendant introduced endlessly.
Ye Tian knew these people well and knew that they were all powerful figures. The Liu and Song Families weren't inferior to the Ye Family, and the Great General was the pillar of the Yucheng Kingdom!
But none of this had anything to do with Ye Tian!
"Alright, show me around.”Ye Tian interrupted with a smug look on his face as he continued to introduce the employees of the Fragrance Pavilion.
"Master, this way please!" The green-robed attendant smiled awkwardly, thinking that he had spoken too much. He saw a young and beautiful servant girl behind Ye Tian, dressed luxuriously and prettier than most young ladies.
The green-robed attendant didn't dare to delay any longer, putting down his work and leading Ye Tian upstairs.
"Master, are you satisfied with these aromas?”The waiter led Ye Tian upstairs to a place where incense was placed for sacrifice and asked respectfully.
Seeing which incense stick Ye Tian was looking at, the shop assistant's eyes widened and he hurriedly explained,""This is Dalun Smoke. It's a high-grade sacrificial smoke. It's mainly used to worship the mighty figures of the past!”
"This is White Shade Smoke. When the Song family worships their predecessors, they often use this kind to bless their descendants!……”
……
Ye Tian listened to the shop assistant's introduction and thought to himself: "There's quite a lot of logic in it, but I don't have to sacrifice to the Ye family's ancestors!”
"This is the Divine Martial Incense. It's specially used to worship martial saints and true gods with great divine powers!”The waiter continued to introduce the various aromas on the wooden shelves.
"This one!" Ye Tian picked one up and waved it in the air, asking," How much?”
"Eh?" The shop assistant was stunned for a moment. Although the price of the Divine Martial Aroma was not low, the sales were not high. After all, not many people would buy it to worship those martial saints and great divine arts practitioners.
Those people had not produced one for thousands of years, and generally, they had very few descendants. They were not as popular as the other types of aromas, but in business, if they could sell a handful, it was a handful.
"One tael of silver!" The shop assistant said respectfully.
Ye Tian searched his pockets, but he didn't have any money. He looked at Xiao Cui, who blushed and took out a silver ingot from her waist pocket and tossed it to the waiter.
One silver ingot was equivalent to ten taels of silver, enough for an ordinary family to live for two months.
"There's no need to look for it. Young Master gave it to you!”
"Uh, she's even a little rich woman!" Ye Tian looked at Little Cui in surprise, laughing to himself.
Xiao Cui turned around and grabbed two more from the shelf before heading to Fragrance Pavilion with Ye Tian.
"Young Master, those workers are the best at gossiping behind people's backs. There are many people here, so perhaps someone already knows our identity. If we don't stuff their mouths with money, they might say something!”Xiao Cui whispered.
" En, you're quite thoughtful." Ye Tian nodded with a smile. He was far from being as thoughtful as Xiao Cui. It seemed that he and his mother couldn't do without Xiao Cui.
"Young Master, did we buy these aromas just to go to the peach garden? Xiao Cui looked at the three incense sticks in her arms and asked Ye Tian.
"Yes!" Ye Tian nodded.
"I know, Young Master must offer sacrifices to that Scholar Yuanming from the paradise!”Xiao Cui said with a smile. "Hmm? You know that too!" Ye Tian turned to look at Xiao Cui in surprise. At her age, she actually knew all this. Ye Tian had never expected this.
"Yes, I heard it from the second miss. I used to serve the second miss. She said that Scholar Yuanming of the peach garden defeated tens of thousands of enemies with one hand and was the most powerful person other than the First Emperor and the True God Ironwood King!”Xiao Cui said very seriously. After that, she asked in surprise,"Young Master, what is a True God? Is he very powerful? He was even more powerful than Scholar Yuanming!”
