Chapter 26 Celestial Sword Immortal 3000000

Three days later.

Atop Misty Mountain, Wayless Sect.

Grand Hall Square.

Chu Yuan had obtained a lounge chair from somewhere and was lying on it, looking through the Basic Qi Refining Technique Manual in his hands.

As he read,

he was also stealthily glancing at Ye Luo, who was sitting cross-legged not far away, comprehending the dao under the Observation Technique.

He was feeling incredibly anxious.

"You blockhead, just hurry up and ask for guidance."

"If you don't ask for my guidance, how can I swindle your cultivation technique from you?"

For three consecutive days, Chu Yuan had asked Ye Luo whether he wanted his guidance.

But this fool, Ye Luo, simply refused.

If it weren't for maintaining his persona,

Chu Yuan really wanted to knock Ye Luo's head off and use it as a ball to kick around.

No other way.

Ye Luo wasn't willing,

so he couldn't force him and could only sit there every day, trying to figure out what Ye Luo was cultivating.

On a patch of open ground not far from Chu Yuan,

Ye Luo sat cross-legged, facing the sky with a golden seal on his forehead faintly shimmering with light.

He was firmly carrying out his Respected Master's order...

"Look up more often."

Through the Observation Technique, he had been observing the heavens and earth to comprehend the dao, and he was on the verge of grasping the third Order Chain.

Ye Luo quietly meditated.

After meditating for half an hour, he finally took a break.

Sigh...

"Is the Respected Master still there?"

Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at Chu Yuan lying on the chair.

The corners of his mouth slightly lifted.

"Is Respected Master still testing me?"

Too bad,

he had seen through Respected Master's intentions a long time ago!!

These past three days, his Respected Master had been seeking him out, saying he wanted to guide him, although in the past he had been left to his own devices.

Such surprising behavior, of course, caught his attention, and he felt there was a deeper meaning behind it!

Yes, Ye Luo believed that his Respected Master, who had not tested him for so long,

now wanted to test his accomplishments.

For example, by tempting him with "guidance."

Guidance from a Respected Master at the Tribulation Transcending Stage and possibly soon to achieve Ascension, was it tempting enough?

The answer was definite!

It was clearly a test of whether Ye Luo's mental state was firm enough to resist temptation.

Could he agree to it? Of course not!

Ye Luo wanted to prove to his Respected Master his capabilities, the firmness of his dao heart!

Meanwhile, not far away, Chu Yuan saw Ye Luo cease his movement and sit up straight. He cleared his throat.

"Luo Er, I'll ask you once more, do you really not need my guidance? You must realize that with one guidance from me, you can save months of arduous cultivation."

Chu Yuan said this without a hint of embarrassment.

As soon as these words came out,

Laughter flashed in Ye Luo's eyes.

Look, look.

Respected Master is indeed tempting me.

He must prove to Respected Master the firmness of his dao heart!

"Respected Master, your disciple can cultivate on his own! In cultivation, the master leads the entrance, but the cultivation relies on the individual, your disciple doesn't dare to presume upon Respected Master's guidance!"

Ye Luo's refusal was utterly resolute.

Chu Yuan took a deep breath, feeling like he was on the verge of exploding, but he still kept his cool, maintaining a calm composure on the surface.

He stood up and took a few steps.

Then, turning to face Ye Luo, he said indifferently, "I wanted to guide you actually to see what sort of sword technique you've been practicing. If it's suitable, I could pass on to you a peerless Sword Technique."

"If you can comprehend this Sword Technique, you could become the foremost among the swordsmen under the heavens, standing at the pinnacle of the world."

"Perhaps you don't quite understand. If you grasp this Sword Technique, then I, your master, will gift you a saying."

"Among the three million Celestial Sword Immortals, even I would have to bow my head in respect!"

"Would you be willing to learn this Sword Technique?"

Chu Yuan really had no choice.

This blockhead was adamant about not wanting his guidance, so he could only start his bluffing mode.

When it came to bluffing, he was quite skilled.

After all, that's what he'd been doing.

He had a way with words, spinning them into all kinds of phrases.

He was sure that Ye Luo, the kid, would agree on the spot!

It was a sure thing, considering how the conversation had turned out.

No one would refuse.

If someone did refuse?

Heh heh.

That would be impossible!

If he could refuse even this, he would rip up all the tiles from the Grand Hall Square below, one by one, and gobble them all up!

In Chu Yuan's view, however, Ye Luo showed no emotion, no excitement, no agitation—it seemed there was a hint of...

A want to laugh??

Hey hey hey, the impartation of a peerless sword technique, can you not take this seriously??

Chu Yuan was dumbfounded.

How could it be that the situation seemed to slip beyond someone named Chu's control?

"Respected Master!"

"Your sword techniques are certainly powerful, but they are not the most suitable for your disciple. What I really want is my own sword!"

"Of course, I'm endlessly grateful for your good intentions, Respected Master."

Ye Luo, suppressing the urge to laugh, kept a pretense of aloofness as he spoke to Chu Yuan.

By now, if he couldn't see that his Respected Master was testing him, he might as well have jumped off the back cliff.

Did one need an unparalleled sword technique as a lure to offer a few pointers?

It was surely a test from his master.

It couldn't possibly be the case that his master wanted to see his sword techniques, to learn from him, right?

No way, it just couldn't be.

Certainly, nobody would think that.

Would his master, a revered and unmatched powerhouse, covet his third-rate swordplay?

That's absurd.

Upon hearing Ye Luo's continued refusal, Chu Yuan's face stiffened.

Before he could say anything,

a voice came from the other side of the square.

"Respected Master! Eldest senior brother!"

Turned out it was Zhang Han who had come over.

At this moment, his heart was full of excitement.

He had heard the entire conversation between his master and eldest senior brother.

Even for a Celestial Sword Immortal, bowing in my presence is a must!

Such domineering attitude!

Such grandeur!

Just by this line alone, one could sense the sweeping ambition of his master.

So he hurried over, eager for his master to teach him the ways of cultivation.

What Chu Yuan hadn't expected was that while he failed to con Ye Luo, he unwittingly conned Zhang Han instead.

Seeing Zhang Han approaching,

Chu Yuan had no choice but to recompose himself, adopting once again a nonchalant demeanor, and looked down at Zhang Han, whispering, "Han'er, have you finished tidying up the palace?"

Zhang Han nodded respectfully, his movements graceful as he replied, "Yes, Respected Master, your disciple has finished all the chores and has come to seek an audience with you, to request the teachings of cultivation from you."

Wanting the teachings of cultivation?

So you want to be conned by me, huh.

Well, since I can't ensnare Ye Luo with a cultivation technique for the time being, I'll just have to con Zhang Han first and stabilize this minor realm.

Chu Yuan waved his hand and said, "Come, follow me to the hall. Luo Er, take the cultivation technique that your master left on the chair and bring it to my sleeping quarters later."

He pointed to the Basic Qi Refining Technique Manual lying on the lounge chair.

He really couldn't understand that book, which was why his progress was so slow; he had only managed to read a third of it.

He planned to leave it and take his time with it.

After Chu Yuan gave his instructions, he took Zhang Han towards the Sect Main Hall.

Ye Luo heard his master's words.

He walked over.

Picked up the book.

Hm?

The Basic Cultivation Method for Early Qi Refining Stage?

What was his master doing with this thing?

Ye Luo did have some recollections of the book.

A seven-year-old cousin in his family had read that book. It took him two hours to finish reading it, and he was scolded for being untalented.

He also couldn't figure out what his master saw in this book.

There was a pile of amazing secret manuals and scriptures in the Hall of Law Transmission, and he chose a book meant for children?

Ye Luo scratched his head, puzzled; he put down the book and continued to contemplate the ways of heaven and earth...
