Three Million Sword Immortals in the Sky

Three days later…

On Sky Mist Mountain, outside the Daoless Sect's main hall…

Chu Yuan had gotten a recliner from somewhere and was lying on the side, reading the Qi Refinement Stage Basic Cultivation Technique in his hand.

As he read, he constantly used his peripheral vision to peek at Ye Luo, who was sitting cross-legged not too far away and observing the sky and comprehending the Dao.

His heart was racing.

You silly fellow, hurry up and ask for guidance. If you don't consult me, how am I supposed to learn your cultivation technique?

Chu Yuan had already asked Ye Luo if he had wanted guidance for three consecutive days.

However, Ye Luo, this fool, kept insisting that he did not need his guidance.

Had it not been for maintaining his character as a Sect Leader, Chu Yuan wanted to hit Ye Luo's head off and kick it like a ball.

He had no choice.

If Ye Luo was unwilling, he could not force it either. He could only sit here every day and see if he could tell what Ye Luo was cultivating.

In an open space not far from Chu Yuan…

Ye Luo sat cross-legged and faced the sky, with the golden mark on his forehead flickering faintly.

He was determined to carry out his Master's orders… To look up at the sky more.

He had been using the Heaven's Viewing Technique to observe the heavens and earth and comprehend the Dao. He had already begun to comprehend the third golden chain.

Ye Luo meditated quietly.

After meditating for an hour, he stopped for a moment to rest.

Phew…

Master is still here?

Ye Luo heaved a sigh of relief, turned to look at Chu Yuan, who was lying on the chair, and smirked.

Master is still probing me?

What a pity.

He had long since seen through his Master's intentions!

For the past three days, his Master had constantly been trying to guide him. In the past, he had always let him comprehend the Dao by himself.

This strange action had naturally attracted Ye Luo's attention. He felt that there was a deeper meaning behind his Master's action!

Yes, Ye Luo felt that his Master must have felt that it had been long since he had tested him and now was the time.

One form of test was using 'guidance' to tempt and test his mental fortitude.

Was the guidance of a Master who was at the Tribulation stage and could ascend at any time tempting enough?

The answer was yes!

This was obviously a test to see if Ye Luo's mental state was firm enough and if he could resist temptation.

How could he agree to this? Of course not!

Ye Luo wanted to prove to his Master his ability and his firm Dao Heart!

Not far away, Chu Yuan saw that Ye Luo had stopped moving. He sat up straight and touched his throat.

"Luo'er, let me ask you again. Do you really not need me to guide you? You have to know that just some guidance from me will save you several months of bitter cultivation," Chu Yuan said calmly.

The moment this was said, Ye Luo smiled.

Look, look.

His Master was indeed tempting him.

He had to prove to his Master that his Dao Heart was firm!

"Master, I have the ability to cultivate on my own! When I first started, Master had told me that cultivation depends on the person himself. I would never dare to ask for your guidance!" Ye Luo rejected decisively.

Chu Yuan took in a deep breath. He felt as if he was going to explode anytime soon, but he still endured it and put on a calm and collected appearance.

He stood up and took a few steps. Then, he turned to face Ye Luo and said indifferently, "I want to give you some guidance because I want to see what your swordsmanship is like. If it's suitable, I will be able to teach you a peerless sword move.

"If you can comprehend this sword technique, you can stand at the peak and become the best swordsman in this world.

"Perhaps you still don't quite understand what I'm saying. If you're able to comprehend this sword technique, then you will be able to achieve the following: Even if three million sword immortals in the sky were to go against you, they would still have to lower their heads!

"Are you willing to learn this sword technique?"

Chu Yuan had no choice.

This fool kept refusing his guidance no matter what. Thus, Chu Yuan could only activate his hoodwinking mode. He was very skilled when it came to his ability to hoodwink. After all, that was what he specialized in.

Come to think of it, he was pretty capable of coming up with all kinds of dominating phrases.

He believed that Ye Luo would agree immediately!

That was for sure.

No one would refuse such temptation.

What if he rejected it?

Keke!

That was impossible!

If he could still reject this, he would dig up all the floor tiles below the sect's main hall and eat them all!

In Chu Yuan's line of sight, there was no expression on Ye Luo's face. There was no excitement or any sort of feeling. However, there seemed to be a hint of…

A hint of an urge to laugh?

Hey, hey, hey! I am trying to impart to you some peerless sword moves here. Can you be more serious about it?

Chu Yuan was dumbfounded.

Why did the situation seem to be out of his control?

"Master!

"Your sword technique is indeed very strong, but it's not the most suitable for me. I want to come up with my own sword move!

"Of course. This disciple cannot thank Master enough for your kind intentions."

Ye Luo suppressed his laughter and pretended to be proud as he spoke to Chu Yuan.

At this point, if he still could not tell that his Master was testing him, he might as well jump off the cliff. If he were to give some pointers, would he need to use peerless sword moves as the bait?

His Master was definitely testing him.

No one would think that his Master wanted to see his sword moves so that he could learn them, right?

Surely not?

No one would really think that way, right?

His Master was a peerless expert, why would he covet his third-rate sword art?

Go to hell!

Chu Yuan's face stiffened when he heard Ye Luo's refusal. Before he could say anything, a voice came from the other side of the square.

"Master! Eldest Senior Brother!"

It was Zhang Han.

At this moment, Zhang Han was filled with excitement. He had heard the entire conversation between his Master and his Eldest Senior Brother.

"Even if three million sword immortals in the sky were to go against you, they would still have to lower their heads!"

How domineering was this?

How majestic?

Merely these words alone were sufficient to discern his Master's imposing aura. Therefore, he couldn't wait to approach his Master and ask him to give him guidance on his suited cultivation method.

What Chu Yuan did not expect was that even though he had not succeeded in fooling Ye Luo, he had instead managed to hoodwink Zhang Han.

Zhang Han walked over.

Chu Yuan had no choice but to adjust his expression and return to his usual nonchalant state. He lowered his head to glance at Zhang Han and asked softly, "Han'er, have you finished tidying up your palace?"

Zhang Han nodded respectfully and cupped his hands elegantly. "Yes, Master. Disciple has finished tidying up and specially came to seek an audience with Master. Master, please impart your disciple a cultivation technique!"

Cultivation technique?

He just wants me to activate my hoodwinking skill again.

Forget it. Since I can't obtain Ye Luo's cultivation technique for the time being, I'll hoodwink Zhang Han first and guarantee a reward of a small realm first.

Chu Yuan waved his hand and said, "Let's go, follow me into the hall. Luo'er, bring the cultivation technique book I placed on the chair to my palace later."

He pointed at the Qi Refinement Stage Basic Cultivation Technique book on the recliner. He really couldn't understand the book, and his progress was very slow. Even after spending so much time on it, he had only read a third of it.

He planned to keep it and continue reading it slowly.

After saying that, Chu Yuan brought Zhang Han into the main hall.

After Ye Luo heard his Master, he walked toward the recliner and picked up the book.

Eh? Qi Refinement Stage Basic Cultivation Technique? Why is Master reading this book?

Ye Luo had some impression of this book.

A seven-year-old cousin of his had read this book before. It was said that he had spent four hours reading the entire book, and he was even scolded for his poor aptitude.

He did not understand why his Master was reading this book.

Instead of reading the impressive secret cultivation manuals in the Hall of Impartation, he was reading a book that was meant for a child?

Ye Luo scratched his head in confusion. He put down the book and continued to comprehend the Dao…
