“…”
Watching Pei Jinye’s face turn black, the laughter of the little old man in the blue robe grew even more hearty.
“Haha, you young fellow, despite all your scheming, you still ended up trapping yourself.”
“Master, you can’t just stand by and do nothing, do you have any peerless sword techniques to pass on to me?”
The smile on the little old man’s face suddenly stiffened, and he said irritably, “You’ve got quite the nerve, asking for several books just like that, you’re getting just one, and if you practice it well, the title of Sword Immortal might be yours one day.”
“That powerful? Who else besides me has learned this sword technique?”
“Your second senior brother.”
“And how good is his swordsmanship now?”
“Well, he’s just too playful, barely managed to reach the status of a half-step Sword Immortal, and I heard not long ago that he crippled a First Level Arbitrator.”
The little old man pulled out his senior citizen smartphone and swiped up a photo.
Pei Jinye craned his neck to look.
A handsome, sword-bearing young man held up a gigantic monster’s head, taking a selfie with a “yay” hand gesture.
Noticing the change in Pei Jinye’s expression, the little old man’s smile grew even wider, his finger swiping across the screen.
“This one was taken during his hunt in Death Canyon two months ago…”
“This one was when he was eighteen, the day his Sword Qi caused a pilgrimage to the Sword Tomb… I took this photo, what do you think?”
“And this one…”
“This is your eldest senior brother, don’t be fooled by his stern face, he’s actually even more ruthless, but don’t worry, your eldest senior brother only schemes against outsiders…”
The old man accidentally swiped to a photo of a beautiful young girl emerging from a bath.
In a flash,
Master and disciple exchanged glances in silent agreement.
The moment the phone went dark, the old man nonchalantly said, “There might be a virus on my phone…”
Pei Jinye: “Mhmm.”
“…”
…
Early morning.
Jiang’s Family Back Mountain.
[With One Sword Determining Life and Death]: Beginner 1.1%;
Pei Jinye released his grip on the longsword, and despite his current physique, he still found the technique obscure and difficult to comprehend.
Proficiency couldn’t be added just yet.
Pei Jinye surmised that it had something to do with himself.
Talent related to the sword…
For now, there was only the Shadow Sword Technique.
If it weren’t for the high potential of this technique, he wouldn’t have spent time cultivating it.
Such offensive secret moves, once mastered, could also become one of his trump cards for self-protection.
…
Under the scholar tree.
The bulky creature rubbed Pei Jinye’s palm and its open mouth casually brushed against the jade string on his wrist.
“Sss sss (Eat.)”
A slap came down hard.
Pei Jinye said irritably, “Eat what?”
The bulky creature snuggled around the big scholar tree, looking wronged.
Not far away, the morning sun filtered through the mountains and forests casting mottled shadows, and under the stirring breeze, a dozen birds chirped noisily.
A bluebird landed on Pei Jinye’s shoulder, chirping away as if denouncing someone’s crimes.
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but chuckle and then patted the bulky head again, “If you steal the little birds’ food again, I won’t let you off!”
…
8:40 AM.
Investigation Team.
Pei Jinye bumped into Lin Xiawei head-on: “…team leader.”
“Hmm.” Lin Xiawei nodded faintly, not specifically towards Pei Jinye, as she wasn’t keen on talking today.
As she passed by Pei Jinye, she suddenly dropped a remark.
“From now on, call me senior sister. Do you have time now, spare an hour and a half, and I’ll teach you the Blood Felling Technique.”
Upon hearing this, Pei Jinye asked, “Senior sister, is this a technique for Blood Refining?”
“Yes, haven’t you already started Blood Refining?”
Lin Xiawei’s words made the hairs on the back of Pei Jinye’s neck stand on end.
“You…”
He really wanted to know why even his senior sister could see through his martial cultivation.
“Master told me.” Lin Xiawei’s words immediately dispelled Pei Jinye’s doubts.
He let out a sigh of relief but also curiously asked, “Then are you also in the Blood Refining Realm, senior sister?”
“No.” Lin Xiawei’s calm voice preceded her as she turned to lead the way to the practice room.
“Organ Refining?” Pei Jinye tentatively inquired.
“Not that either.”
Pei Jinye was astonished.
If not Organ Refining, could it be that senior sister had reached the Dharma Body?
…
In the practice room.
Ten minutes later.
Lin Xiawei released her hand, gesturing for Pei Jinye to comprehend on his own.
Quietly,
[Blood Felling Technique]: Beginner 0.01%.
…
“You really do have potential,” Lin Xiawei’s voice suddenly floated beside Pei Jinye just as he was experiencing the strangeness brought on by the “Blood Felling Technique”.
He looked up at her in surprise, “Senior sister, you flatter me.”
“Do you know how long it took you to reach the beginner level?” Lin Xiawei looked at him steadily, making Pei Jinye feel as if his junior sister seemed even more like an artificial intelligence.
“79 seconds.” Lin Xiawei’s voice came, as she turned away, “My eldest senior brother took three hours to reach beginner level, my second senior brother took an hour, and my third senior brother took an hour and twenty minutes.”
Seeing her pause, Pei Jinye couldn’t help asking, “What about you, senior sister?”
“I haven’t cultivated it, how could I have reached beginner level?” Lin Xiawei replied, puzzled.
…
…
After Lin Xiawei left, Pei Jinye was disheveled by the wind.
How could someone without martial cultivation be so proficient in martial techniques? Could this be possible?
If everything were as Lin Xiawei had said…
Then his junior sister’s Transcendence was truly beyond belief!
Too bad Pei Jinye didn’t know what Lin Xiawei’s specific Transcendence was; otherwise, he really could give Universal Talent a try to copy it.
After Lin Xiawei had gone,
the room was left with only Pei Jinye.
Proficiency began to slowly improve.
[Blood Felling Technique]: Beginner 99%… Intermediate 15%… Great Success 1%!
After reaching Great Success, Pei Jinye was amazed to find that he was still able to keep adding proficiency.
