If he learns this sword technique, he will be able to synthesize an extremely powerful ultimate martial art.
One that can be compared to the Overlord Saber.
Ye Xiao took the sword technique.
"How much? I'll transfer the money to you."
He said calmly.
Gu Hai glared at him with a bad temper.
"Are you slapping my face? What kind of person do you take me for?"
Ye Xiao smiled and didn't continue discussing the money.
At this moment, Huanliuli climbed up from below, jumped onto the table, and curled up to sleep not far from Ye Xiao.
Gu Hai was taken aback and then said,
"Old Ye, is this one you raised?"
Ye Xiao nodded.
"When did you start raising a star pet? But to be honest, if your divine soul isn't awakened, cultivating a mental technique and becoming a beast tamer isn't bad.
Star beasts can not only assist in battle but also provide some cultivation feedback to the beast tamer.
However, raising them is quite costly, and it's hard to achieve much without spending a lot of money."
"I'm just raising it for fun."
"Alright, but if you really want to be a beast tamer and need money, let me know. I don't have a lot, but I can spare a little.
Also, is your star pet strong enough? Don't raise some low-quality ones; they're a bottomless pit, and no matter how much money you spend, it's a waste.
I have an old classmate who deals in star beasts. He has all kinds of good star beasts, even quasi-tiger-level ones.
I can negotiate the price for you. For around 100,000 yuan, you should be able to get a quasi-tiger-level star beast baby. If someone else buys it, they'd need at least 120,000 to 130,000 yuan."
Ye Xiao: "..."
"For now, it's not necessary. I'll start with this one and see how it goes."
Not to mention that he doesn't want to be a beast tamer, just in terms of star beast grades, there are three levels:
Dragon, Tiger, Wolf!
The Phantom Cat is definitely above the Dragon level. Why would he spend money on a quasi-tiger-level star beast baby, which isn't even a tiger-level one?
Of course, the most important thing is that a quasi-tiger-level star beast baby costs 100,000 yuan!
This doesn't fit his consumption philosophy.
Gu Hai nodded.
"Alright, let me know if you need anything. I'll leave now; I'm afraid the new guy can't handle it if I stay too long."
"Okay, go ahead."
After Gu Hai left, Ye Xiao immediately started reading the book.
To be honest, he couldn't really understand this ancient book because it was written in ancient characters.
However, the advantage of his Golden Book divine soul is that as long as he sees a character once, he can record the technique and start cultivating it without needing to understand every word.
After recording the entire technique, he let his divine soul cultivate it while he continued searching for mental techniques.
The mental technique he tried at noon today showed him a new direction.
Mental techniques are incredibly powerful, especially when you can perfectly control your mental energy. When used properly, they can even burst with power comparable to spirit energy.
If his cultivation can't instantly jump to the Divine Sect level,
Then enhancing multiple skills is also a way to indirectly increase his strength.
However, since mental techniques are rare, he didn't find many in the area he managed.
"Duang~!"
When the clock rang, signaling the end of work, Ye Xiao closed the book and stretched.
The mental techniques in his mind only increased to three.
It's still far from being able to synthesize.
Ye Xiao stretched again.
"It seems I'll have to find a way to go to other areas and take a look."
Huanliuli couldn't help but say,
"Why don't you come and sneak a look at night? At night, no one will be here, and you should be able to read any book you want, right?"
Ye Xiao glanced at her.
"Would you eat while you're pooping?"
Huanliuli shook her head.
"Of course not, I'm not crazy."
"Then why would you work when you should be resting?"
Huanliuli: "..."
She found it hard to keep up with Ye Xiao's pace.
If it were her, she would definitely read books during the day and at night, as long as it could enhance her strength, why sleep?
Only someone with a problem would sleep.
In fact, although Ye Xiao wants to get stronger, he won't devote all his thoughts to cultivation.
In his previous life, due to illness, he didn't get to experience life properly. In this life, he just wants to live a peaceful and fulfilling life.
If he spends every moment on cultivation, what's the difference from lying in a hospital bed in his previous life?
The sky is unpredictable. Even if he cultivates to be very powerful, there will always be someone stronger.
If he only focuses on cultivation and doesn't experience life properly, and then gets killed by an absolute powerhouse, what's the point of his cultivation? Wouldn't this life be wasted too?
So, cultivation should be done to the best of his ability.
Avoiding trouble in daily life is safer than advancing to a higher cultivation level.
After dinner, his divine soul had already cultivated the last page of the basic sword technique to the Great Perfection stage.
At this moment, the paper recording the nine basic sword techniques began to emit a golden glow slowly.
It can be synthesized!
Ye Xiao returned to his rented house, locked himself in a room, and started to synthesize the sword techniques.
As he expected, the light emitted from his body was completely contained within the room, not a single ray of light escaped.
As he evolved the sword technique, the room was filled with sword qi, swirling and humming.
The sword technique formed nine large characters on his divine soul.
Draw!
Slash!
Chop!
Shave!
Pull!
Pierce!
Flick!
Turn!
Sheath!
From drawing the sword to sheathing it, it was done in one smooth motion!
All the sword power, momentum, and techniques began to slowly blend together, forming one sword!
Huanliuli was assigned to guard the gate in the yard and said resentfully,
"I'm a cat! I'm not a dog!"
Unfortunately, Ye Xiao couldn't hear her complaint.
The night passed quickly. The next morning, when Ye Xiao woke up, the ten basic sword techniques had been completely synthesized into one!
"Done!"
He exhaled a turbid breath.
One Sword to Cut the Heavens!
Done!
One Sword to Cut the Heavens, like the Overlord Saber, contains the myriad phenomena of sword techniques in one stroke.
This is the supreme sword intent, the pinnacle of sword techniques, with endless variations that no one can predict, making it difficult to withstand its power!
As long as his cultivation is sufficient, this sword can even cut the heavens!
Ye Xiao's cultivation also improved significantly, not quite reaching the Third Rank of the Innate stage, but more than halfway there.
However, even so, with the Overlord Saber, One Sword to Cut the Heavens, and the Purple Star Sea, two top-tier techniques, and one top-tier mental technique, plus other basic techniques, Ye Xiao's combat power is enough to defeat enemies of higher ranks, truly standing out among the crowd!
