Chapter Four Hundred Thirty
At this moment Ye Chu did not know to what extent Bai Xin was furious. He was completely immersed in the world of the Baleful Spirit Technique.
Silent Sword!
This was the Baleful Spirit Technique Ye Chu had obtained, an offensive wondrous technique. Condensing baleful aura into a blade, it could transform into silent and traceless baleful aura sword force. Driven by primal spirit, it directly attacked a cultivator’s primal spirit.
This was a set of Baleful Spirit Techniques that attacked the primal spirit. Its grade was not necessarily high, but it was bizarre beyond measure, extremely extraordinary.
Ye Chu studied it for a full three days, using his primal spirit to evolve it, fusing sword intent and baleful aura, cultivating the Silent Sword.
But Baleful Spirit Techniques were far more difficult to cultivate than martial techniques. Every time Ye Chu cultivated, he failed because the baleful aura could not condense.
This kind of day persisted for several days. Ye Chu still showed not the slightest progress. This made Ye Jingyun unable to help but find it amusing, “Ye Chu, can you actually do it or not?”
After several days of cultivation, Ye Jingyun and the others also knew Ye Chu was cultivating a set of Baleful Spirit Techniques. They had originally thought Ye Chu would succeed very quickly, because Ye Jingyun also regarded Ye Chu as a Baleful Spiritist. But they had not expected that after so many days he was still failing. Ye Jingyun finally could not help but laugh.
Because these past few days Ye Chu had been too amusing. Every day while cultivating the Baleful Spirit Technique he would squint and frown, his eyes squeezed almost into crossed eyes. Just thinking of that appearance felt comical.
“Shut up!” Ye Chu glared at Ye Jingyun and said.
Ye Jingyun giggled. Her long legs casually crossed. Sitting by the bonfire together with Yang Hui and the others, leaning against the rabbit meat, she said, “I have never heard that cultivating Baleful Spirit Techniques requires squinting and frowning. Do you not know you are almost becoming cross-eyed?”
Ye Chu thought of these days of squeezing his eyes and felt dry and uncomfortable. Ye Chu’s face also flushed somewhat. Ye Chu naturally would not explain that this was to fully drive primal spirit power to condense the Baleful Spirit Technique.
“What does a woman like you understand? In cultivating Baleful Spirit Techniques, the most important thing is the coordination of eyes and eyebrows being consistent. This is a skill. Cultivated to the extreme, it can shatter heaven and destroy earth.” Ye Chu spoke very seriously to Ye Jingyun.
“Pah!” Ye Jingyun thought, do you really take me for someone who has never seen the world? She had never heard of such a technique. This fellow was abnormal enough, yet he still spoke so righteously, as if he were cultivating some peerless secret technique. Truly shameless.
Yang Hui giggled secretly to one side. She naturally knew Ye Chu’s squinting and frowning had no effect on cultivation. It was merely exerting too much force.
“Should you not go find something to eat? These past few days you have had us women hunting to support you. Do you even feel embarrassed?” Ye Jingyun looked at the rabbit roasting in the bonfire and shouted at Ye Chu.
Ye Chu rolled his eyes, “When you used the Azure Origin Pills in the jade bracelet, why did you not say I was supporting you?”
“That was the interest for you renting my jade bracelet!” Ye Jingyun shouted at Ye Chu very matter-of-factly.
Ye Chu had no interest in arguing with Ye Jingyun. He continued cultivating his Baleful Spirit Technique. Every time he drove his primal spirit power to the extreme, he still gritted his teeth and frowned, his expression comical.
“Young master! Should you not rest a bit? I have also heard that Baleful Spirit Techniques are difficult to cultivate. Ordinary Baleful Spiritists, even mastering the most rudimentary Baleful Spirit Techniques, require over a month of cultivation. The set of Baleful Spirit Techniques you have was collected by an Emperor. Its grade should not be low. Moreover, it requires primal spirit power to transform baleful aura and condense a sword. The cultivation difficulty doubles. For such a wondrous technique, succeeding in three months of cultivation would already be quite good. Does the young master actually want to succeed in just a few days?” Yang Hui spoke to Ye Chu.
Ye Chu naturally knew Yang Hui was speaking the truth. Baleful Spiritists were indeed powerful, but the difficulty of cultivating Baleful Spirit Techniques was also famously known. Because most Baleful Spirit Techniques were bizarre and extraordinary, especially in their extremely high demands on primal spirit power.
Precisely because of this, the time consumed in cultivating a set of Baleful Spirit Techniques was enormous. Some Baleful Spiritists even only cultivated one set of Baleful Spirit Techniques their entire lives.
Ye Chu smiled at Yang Hui, then continued cultivating the Baleful Spirit Technique.
Seeing Ye Chu so obsessed with cultivation, Yang Hui could only shake her head and say no more. However, hearing rustling sounds from one side, her heart rejoiced. Her gaze looked over. Sure enough, she saw a rabbit dart out from the distance.
Before Yang Hui could make a move, Yang Ning’s body had already shot out, surging with power, about to catch the rabbit.
But when Yang Ning’s fingers were about to land on the rabbit, the rabbit suddenly slowly collapsed to the ground. Though it still had breath, it lay limp as if dead.
“Eh!” Yang Ning grabbed the rabbit, puzzled in her heart. Looking at the rabbit in her hands, dead yet still breathing, she found it extremely strange. Clearly, this rabbit had had its spiritual consciousness extinguished by someone.
Yang Ning’s strength had currently reached upper-grade Profound Life Realm. Among the four of them, Yang Ning’s realm was the strongest. Her shooting out speed need not be mentioned. For someone to resolve this rabbit before her was extremely difficult, especially doing so silently and tracelessly.
Yang Ning’s gaze could not help but turn towards Ye Chu. Something suddenly came to her mind. Her tender, pink lips parted slightly. She stared blankly at Ye Chu, “Young master, you could not have actually succeeded, right?”
Ye Jingyun also abruptly turned her head to look at Ye Chu, carrying a few degrees of surprise.
Ye Chu did not explain either. He merely pointed his finger at a tree. Yang Ning and Ye Jingyun looked at that intact tree. They saw a small hole suddenly appear in the tree, piercing through it. The tree’s vitality was suddenly extinguished, beginning to wither.
“Hiss…”
The three women sucked in a deep breath, staring blankly at Ye Chu. Just before they had said Ye Chu could not succeed in cultivation within a few days. Yet they had not expected that in the next instant, Ye Chu would fiercely slap their faces.
“Silent Sword! Finally succeeded!”
Ye Chu also had a tearfully moved excitement. These days he had not distinguished day from night, even squeezing his eyes almost into crossed eyes. It had finally succeeded in cultivation. He possessed his first set of offensive Baleful Spirit Techniques.
“How does it feel?” Ye Chu looked at the few stunned women, laughed and said, “A genius’s life is so mighty it needs no explanation.”
Ye Jingyun rarely did not retort against Ye Chu. She merely said to Ye Chu, “Attack me and try!”
“You truly want to try?” Ye Chu laughed and said to Ye Jingyun.
“Wast…” Ye Jingyun was about to curse Ye Chu, but her face immediately changed greatly. Her arms erupted with terrifying power, blocking before her forehead. She saw her arm being struck by a force, bursting forth with force energy, shaking out a wave of wind whistling sounds.
“How does it feel? This is called Silent Sword! Is it worthy of its name!” Ye Chu looked at Ye Jingyun with a smile.
Ye Jingyun’s face changed, her heart palpitating from that strike just now. Ye Chu’s attack just now, she had only discovered it when it was about to attack her. If she had been a beat slower, she would have suffered greatly just now.
Thinking of how that strike just now had arrived silently and tracelessly before her, Ye Jingyun’s heart skipped. The power of this strike might not be strong, but what was bizarre was that it made one unable to guard against it. One careless moment, and one could very likely suffer a great loss.
“Baleful Spiritists, truly a profession favoured by heaven!” Ye Jingyun suddenly became jealous. The effect of this wondrous technique was too bizarrely powerful.
