Teachings - 489

Although Zhu Yi had Zhou Fan to teach him, Zhou Fan's guidance was limited due to not having a body. Zhu Yi could still see him do things, but there was no feeling. It was simply an imitation.

With the help of the Sect Master of the Sword Sect, Zhu Yi would be able to train faster with the sword, especially since Zhou Fan would still be helping him.

In addition, the Sect Master could provide him with many Spirit Stones. There was only one more thing that Zhu Yi needed. 

He asked the Sect Master of the Sword Sect. "I need to fight Chaos Beasts. Can I do that here?"

He had only arrived recently and did not know much about this world.

"I suppose you can. Do you want to fight a nascent soul realm Chaos Beast?" The Sect Master responded.

"I want to fight as many of them as you can give me." Zhu Yi said.

"How does five at a time sound? Can you handle that?" 

"I can. That works for me." Zhu Yi responded. 

The Sect Master nodded. "Wait about five hundred years. Chaos Beasts arrive on our world once every thousand years." 

Zhu Yi nodded and asked a question. "What is the strongest Chaos Beast that comes here?"

"A lesser dao creation realm Chaos Beast. It's never fun to fight. Luckily, all the intelligent ones are at the frontlines." The Sect Master said.

Zhu Yi recalled what the old man from the frost sect had said about Chaos Beasts and asked yet another question.

"Can you handle that Chaos Beast alone?"

The Sect Master shook his head. "I can barely survive alone. If we're lucky, every inner world realm cultivator of this world combined can defeat it. Sometimes, the overseer must intervene."

He did not know who or what an overseer was, but Zhu Yi decided to refrain from asking any other questions. He would learn in the future.

"Do you need to rest or are you ready to start training?" The Sect Master asked.

Zhu Yi was prepared. "I am ready."

The Sect master grabbed a branch from a tree within the courtyard. His sheath was empty.

"First show me what you know."

Zhu Yi nodded and unsheathed his sword. He first used the formless sword. The sword wave was so common it was not worth mentioning. 

Zhu Yi smoothly used the formless sword a thousand times before sheathing it. The Sect Master was already amazed.

"What kind of advanced technique is this? I've rarely seen anything so incredible in all of my life!" The Sect Master exclaimed.

"I found it after falling into a hole." Zhu Yi explained.

"Incredible. That should be your strongest technique right?"

Although the Sect Master could see the formless swords, it was only because Zhu Yi's cultivation was so low. If Zhu Yi was even at the realm below his, it would be nearly impossible for him to sense them at all.

"Not quite. This one is called, "Breaking through all things."

Zhu Yi focused and held his sword. He used breaking through all things and slashed down. An unstoppable power shot out of his sword and struck the air in front of him. Although there was nothing to hit, the sword technique was clearly displayed.

This time, the Sect Master didn't even speak. Although its complexity was not high to the Sect Master due to his high realm, it was still an unfathomably strong sword technique to him.

"Where did you get this one?" He asked seriously. 

"The same hole." Zhu Yi responded. He didn't know what else to say.

The Sect Master took out a talisman and spoke into it. "Go into the mortal world that birthed Chen Jie and search it in its entirety. If the celestial ice sect has anything to say about it, tell them that it is not a request, but a command."

After saying that, the Sect Master put away the talisman.

"Sorry about that. If techniques like that are on that world, then who knows what else we could find. I can help you train in either of the techniques for now. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you much in the future."

It seemed that the Sect Master was thoroughly shocked.

"I want to train in the Breaking Through All Things technique." Zhu Yi said.

The Sect Master nodded and showed him using the technique. It was a mere imitation of the technique, but Zhu Yi could feel something when the Sect Master did it.

To Zhou Fan, the sect master was quite sloppy. However, he could at least give Zhu Yi a little bit of help. Only when he recovered more would he be able to help Zhu Yi.

Zhu Yi learned from the Sect Master for nearly a year straight before he stopped training the sword. Although he had progressed faster due to the Sect Master, most of the credit went to Zhou Fan.

While the Sect Master taught Zhu Yi in the real world, Zhou Fan stood next to him and explained what the Sect Master was doing wrong.

It was quite comical to Zhu Yi, but he never laughed. 

He respected the Sect Master.

After the year passed, Zhu Yi was ready to cultivate. He had only two requests for the Sect Master. Not to spy on him, and to provide spirit stones. The sect master gladly accepted. The next day, Zhu Yi was given a thousand top grade spirit stones. He was also told that he could ask for more at any time. 

In addition to the thousand top grade spirit stones used for cultivating, he was allowed to buy anything around the Sword Sect for free.

Although he was not the Sect Master's disciple, he was the Sect Master's student. News seemed to get out that the Sect Master of the Sword Sect had accepted a student.

Besides participating in the competition in the future, the Sect Master only had one more request for Zhu Yi. Every now and then he needed to beat up some people that were jealous.

Zhu Yi agreed to this request. It was good to fight and not lose his edge.
