Half a month later.
"Pa pa pa"
In the Free Valley, a young man in a green robe was standing on top of a huge rock. He held a tree branch that was about one meter long and the size of an index finger. He kept stabbing forward, tilting, chopping, and cutting the huge rock. Every time the young man waved the branch, there would be a slight sound of wind breaking. As the young man increased his speed, for a moment, the slight sound of wind breaking sounded like firecrackers on the boulder.
At a certain moment, the young man's eyes narrowed. The branch in his hand dragged towards a large tree in the distance. The branch was extremely fast, and wherever it passed, a light sound of wind breaking could be heard. The branch reached the large tree in two breaths.
"Peng!"
The branch pierced through the root of a tree that required three people to hug. Then, it pierced through the second tree. After piercing through five trees in a row, the branch stopped on the sixth tree.
Looking at the small hole in the middle of the big tree, the young man said in a low voice,""With the Energy Stone and Meridian Protection Pill that Elder Qian gave me, coupled with my faint golden Celestial Chi that keeps strengthening my body, my physical strength is many times stronger than before! Unfortunately, he had used up all ten energy stones and Meridian Protection Pills.”
The young man was naturally An Yufeng. In the past half a month, he had been cultivating for almost twenty hours a day. With such hard work, not only did he raise his cultivation to the sixth level of the Xuan Realm, but he had also cultivated the basic sword techniques of the Sword Sect to the great perfection.
The basic sword techniques of the Sword Sect were not rare. All outer sect disciples would have a copy. Other than An Yufeng, no one in the Sword Sect's outer sect cultivated this kind of common sword technique. After all, no matter how strong the basic sword technique was, how could it be stronger than those graded sword techniques?
In the past, An Yufeng had the same idea. However, after being demoted to a servant disciple, he had no choice but to cultivate this basic sword technique. After cultivating for two years, as his realm and physical strength continued to grow stronger and his basic sword techniques became more and more familiar, An Yufeng felt that this sword technique was not as trashy as everyone thought.
This set of sword techniques was simple hacking, stabbing, lifting, sweeping, chopping, and pointing. However, after two years of continuous practice, these simple moves had become not so simple. Just like earlier, every swing of his sword could produce a slight sound of wind breaking. This effect was something that even some of the Sword Sect's yellow-grade sword skills could not achieve.
Therefore, An Yufeng decided to continue practicing. He wanted to see the limit of this set of basic sword techniques!
Looking up at the sky, An Yufeng found it was noon. He clapped his hands and said in a low voice,""I must make a Strength Talisman today!”
In the " Five Element Rune Scroll " that Bao 'er had given him, the method to make a Power Talisman wasn't very complicated. After all, it was just a basic talisman. However, for An Yufeng, who had just come into contact with it and had no one to guide him, it was already very complicated. In the past half a month, he hadn't succeeded once. The main reason was that he was too anxious at the beginning.
With the experience of failure in the first half of the month, An Yufeng had learned his lesson. In the previous week, he did not draw any Strength Talismans. Instead, he studied Strength Talismans for a week and memorized all the routes of Strength Talismans and some places that needed special attention.
Recalling all the details of the Power Talisman, An Yufeng sat cross-legged on the boulder and took out the talisman paper and rune pen that Bao 'er had given him. He then took out the spirit herb juice and Xuan Beast blood that Bao' er had given him. After preparing everything, An Yufeng changed from sitting to crawling. He calmed down and concentrated. A moment later, the faint golden Xuan Qi in his body slowly poured into the rune pen. He began to draw according to the method of making the Power Talisman in his head.
Holding the rune pen, An Yufeng carefully moved on the talisman paper. The faint golden Celestial Chi in his body flowed into the talisman paper through the rune pen. After the faint golden Celestial Chi entered the talisman paper, they started to move around like small earthworms. Seeing this, An Yufeng hurriedly used the rune pen to draw them into various strange shapes.
During this process, An Yufeng didn't even dare to breathe loudly. He was fully focused on holding the rune pen and slowly drawing on the talisman paper. After about fifteen minutes, a faint golden flame gradually appeared on the talisman paper. After another fifteen minutes, Yang Ye put away the pen and a faint golden flame appeared on the talisman paper.
Seeing the flame take shape, An Yufeng took a deep breath and relaxed. Of course, things weren't over yet. He had only completed the first step. There was still one more step, and it was also the most important step. That was spirit infusion!
Spirit infusion was to inject the juice of the spiritual herbs and the blood of Xuan Beasts into the talisman paper, using the two together with the energy of heaven and earth to give the talisman spirit. This step was the most difficult, and he had failed in the first half of the month. This was because he wanted to use the Xuan Beast blood, the spiritual herb juice, and his faint golden energy to redraw the flame at the same time!
During this process, if he failed, then the entire talisman would fail!
Taking a deep breath, An Yufeng tried his best to calm himself down. After a while, he picked up a white jade bottle and poured a drop of liquid on the talisman. Then, he quickly picked up another bottle and poured a drop of Xuan Beast's blood. Two drops of liquid fell on the talisman. An Yufeng quickly circulated the Xuan Qi in his body and forcefully mixed the two drops of liquid.
With the help of An Yufeng's pale golden Celestial Chi, the two drops of liquid merged together without any difficulty. Then, An Yufeng quickly held the pen and guided the two drops of liquid along the path of the flame.
This process was the most difficult because An Yufeng had to wrap the two drops of liquid with his Xuan Qi. This was a very strict control of his soul power and Xuan Qi. During this process, if he was not careful or could not complete the spirit infusion in one breath, the talisman would fail!
This was because once the Xuan Beast's blood and the spiritual herb's juice were not wrapped in Xuan Qi, they would instantly separate. Once the two were separated, the flames on the talisman would definitely be disrupted. At that time, all the previous efforts would be in vain.
Beads of cold sweat kept appearing on his forehead. An Yufeng didn't even dare to blink, afraid that he would lose his way.
Just like that, after about 15 minutes of caution, a smile gradually appeared on An Yufeng's face. He couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes. After another 15 minutes, An Yufeng suddenly put away the brush. The moment the brush left the talisman paper, the flame on the talisman paper suddenly burned, emitting a faint golden flame. The flame on the talisman paper was lifelike, as if it was alive!
" I've finally succeeded! I've finally succeeded! I, An Yufeng, am also a first grade rune master! Haha!" Seeing the flame on the rune paper, An Yufeng couldn't help but burst out laughing in excitement.
From the basic rune technique Bao 'er gave him, An Yufeng learned some basic information about rune masters. Rune masters were the same as cultivators, they were also divided into realms. The first to fifth grades were Inscription Talismans, which were the basic talismans. After the fifth grade, there were Spiritual Talisman Masters, Earth Talisman Masters, Heaven Talisman Masters, Immortal Talisman Masters, and Divine Talisman Masters.
The first to fifth grades were Inscription Talismans. If one could successfully make one of the talismans, they would be considered first-grade. If one could make five basic talismans and master all five attributes, they would reach the fifth grade. Now that Yang Ye had successfully created a powerful talisman, he could be considered a Rank One Rune Master!
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, An Yufeng picked up the Strength Talisman on the stone and observed it for a while. A hint of surprise appeared in his eyes as he whispered,"Talismans are divided into inferior, inferior, intermediate, superior, and superior grade. This Power Talisman of mine can make the flames seem alive, so it should be considered superior. However, didn't the scroll say that the probability of being superior is very low? Could it be because of my faint golden Profound Qi?”
An Yufeng learned from the introduction of the basic rune technique that there were different grades of talismans. Different grades of talismans had different effects. Low-grade Strength Talismans could only increase the user's strength by 50%, medium-grade Strength Talismans could increase the user's strength by 100%, high-grade Strength Talismans could increase the user's strength by 300%, and top-grade Strength Talismans could increase the user's strength by 600 - 700%.
Although the effects of high-grade and supreme-grade talismans were amazing, the difficulty was also extremely high. The success rate of high-grade talismans was very, very low, but he did not expect that his talisman was actually high-grade. Could it be that he was really amazing? An Yufeng was confused.
"Looks like I'll have to ask Bao 'er in the future!" An Yufeng didn't think about this problem anymore. He looked at the Strength Talisman in his hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a strange smile. If he were to fight with others in the future, when their strength was about the same, he would definitely make his opponent feel aggrieved.
Thinking of this, An Yufeng's smile widened, and he smiled proudly. After a moment, he carefully put away the Strength Talisman and quickly walked toward the entrance of the Free Valley.
After leaving the Free Valley, An Yufeng arrived at the training ground. As soon as he arrived, he was stopped by a disciple in green. The man in green was about seventeen or eighteen years old. On the left shoulder of the man in green, there was a small word "Outer". This was the symbol of an outer disciple!
Looking at the green-robed man in front of him who was showing killing intent towards him, An Yufeng said," This person should be Xiao Yun's cousin, Duan Jun, whose strength is at the eighth level of the Xuan Realm."
Seeing An Yufeng being blocked by Du Xiu and the others, some servant disciples at the side immediately shook their heads and sighed. Because of An Yufeng, the servant disciples of the servant peak were no longer bullied by them, so these servant disciples had a good impression of An Yufeng.
Now that Xiao Yun's cousin had returned from the secular world, An Yufeng's fate was obvious.
Duan Jun was also looking at An Yufeng, his eyes flickering with a cold killing intent. After he returned from the secular world today, he found out that Xiao Yun and Steward Xiao had been sent to the Star Mine, and the culprit was actually this errand boy disciple in front of him. It should be known that the errand boy disciples and some outer sect disciples all knew that Xiao Yun was his cousin, and Steward Xiao was his man. One had to look at the master before beating a dog. This person in front of him was blatantly slapping his face!
Most importantly, Xiao Yun and Steward Xiao had to pay him tens of thousands of gold coins every year. With this money, he could buy more cultivation resources, but now, this source of income was gone because of this person in front of him! Tens of thousands of gold coins were his main source of income. His heart was bleeding.
Thinking of this, Duan Jun narrowed his eyes and said,""Trash, my Duan Jun's cousin is not someone you can bully.”After saying that, he moved and slapped Xiao Yun's face.
An Yufeng's face darkened when he saw Duan Jun attack directly. He shouted and punched Duan Jun's palm.
"Peng!"
The fist and palm collided. An Yufeng and Duan Jun both retreated three steps.
The first time they fought, the two of them fought to a draw.
Seeing that he had been forced back by An Yufeng, Duan Jun's eyes flashed with surprise. He sized up Yang Ye for a while and said,""You're already a cultivator? However, so what? I only used 10% of my strength just now. Now, you can die!”As he spoke, the Celestial Chi in his body surged and he was ready to kill An Yufeng again.
"Wait!" An Yufeng took a step forward and looked at Duan Jun with killing intent in his eyes. This man knew that Xiao Yun and the others had been demoted by Elder Qian, but he didn't dare to find trouble with Elder Qian, so he came to look for An Yufeng. Moreover, he was a killer. This time, he was furious.
"What's wrong? You want to beg for mercy?" "If you knew this would happen, why did you do it?" Duan Jun mocked. Although my cousin is only a servant disciple, he's not someone you can bully. Now, if you kneel down and kowtow a thousand times to me, shout that I was wrong, and then get out of the Sword Sect, I can consider not killing you!”
"I challenge you to a duel on the life and death arena!”An Yufeng looked at Duan Jun and said firmly.
Silence, deathly silence. The servant disciples and Duan Jun were stunned.
A servant disciple challenging an outer sect disciple? And it was a life and death arena?
