Chapter 104: Sense of Crisis
Yujian Peak did not impose many restrictions on its disciples, and in the special region of Lingya Mountain, it even supported fighting between disciples and seizing cave dwellings.
This was perhaps because they were all Sword Cultivators who liked to speak with their swords.
Therefore, on Lingya Mountain, whenever a cave dwelling opened, one could challenge for it; even if one seriously injured the other party, one would not be pursued, and even if one accidentally killed them, one would not be expelled from the Sect or receive particularly severe punishment, but a certain amount of Sect Contribution would be deducted; if Sect Contribution was insufficient, then it would be terrible.
And Huang Suyu had operated in the Outer Sect for many years, so he naturally had plenty of Sect Contribution, enough to offset some punishments, so he showed no mercy when attacking, using killing moves! Sword lights collided, and the light was dazzling.
That Inner Sect Disciple retreated three steps, his complexion instantly turning a bit pale; obviously, he had suffered no small loss.
He never expected that the other party could actually block his sword and even overpower his Sword Qi.
Huang Suyu glanced at the cave dwelling, then withdrew his gaze, and coldly said to that Inner Sect Disciple: "Get out of the way, or the next sword will chop off your head!"
"You... you're courting death!"
That Inner Sect Disciple gritted his teeth, his face full of anger, formed hand seals and executed his sword technique.
Only to see the flying sword before him hum, several sword shadows appearing; with one slash, it emitted incomparably fierce Sword Qi, making people dare not underestimate it.
"Zi!"
Sword Qi tore through the air, rushing toward Huang Suyu! "The Sword Qi is not bad, but, it is still not enough!"
Huang Suyu lightly snorted, waved his right hand, and a sword shadow flashed by! "Boom—!"
His flying sword instantly shattered the other party's sword shadows, causing that Inner Sect Disciple's expression to change; he immediately cast a spell to form a Sword Curtain before him! The Sword Curtain protected that Inner Sect Disciple's entire body.
"Boom!"
Huang Suyu's flying sword struck the Sword Curtain, emitting a muffled sound.
The tremendous recoil force directly shattered the Sword Curtain; terrifying Sword Intent swept over, sending that Inner Sect Disciple flying dozens of meters away, heavily smashing onto the ground, spurting blood wildly.
One sword defeated the other in an instant! Huang Suyu was even too lazy to glance at the other party, and stepped into the cave dwelling.
That Inner Sect Disciple struggled to climb up from the ground, his eyes filled with resentment as he stared at Huang Suyu's back; just as he was thinking of avenging himself in the future, a sword light flashed, and his head flew up spinning, his life ending before the cave dwelling.
This was Huang Suyu: ruthless and merciless, never holding back, cutting the grass and removing the roots.
"Senior Brother Huang has already comprehended Sword Intent; that Inner Sect Disciple couldn't even withstand one move, what a terrifying sword!"
"Senior Brother Huang is only at Qi Refining Peak now; when he attacks, he probably can't even handle an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator; he can fight across levels!"
"After coming out of closed-door cultivation this time, has Senior Brother Huang reached Foundation Establishment?"
"If so, then Senior Brother Huang will go to the Inner Sect to stir up the wind and clouds!"
"It probably isn't that fast; I haven't heard recently that any Foundation Establishment Pills were bought; if he asks a Third-Rank Alchemist from Yu Ding Peak to refine pills, that's another matter."
"Anyway, Senior Brother Huang is not someone we can offend, shh!"
After Zhuang Yan heard the voices of the surrounding disciples, his expression was grave, and he silently turned and left Lingya Cliff.
He had never heard that Huang Suyu had comprehended Sword Intent before, only feeling that the other party was very strong in the Outer Sect; but now, after witnessing the other party's strength, he realized that the other party's power had completely exceeded the level an Outer Sect Disciple should have; even placed in the Inner Sect, he would have a place! "If it weren't for the Inner Sect Selection being held only once every three years, I'm afraid he would have already entered the Inner Sect."
Zhuang Yan's heart was filled with complex emotions; he worried for Yu Zhangsheng, and after leaving Lingya Mountain, he immediately used a Transmission Talisman to send news to Yu Zhangsheng.
And the strife on Lingya Mountain was merely a small episode in Yujian Peak.
After that Inner Sect Disciple died, Huang Suyu's name also spread to the Inner Sect; some acquainted disciples were indignant and came to the cave dwelling entrance to block it. On the other side, Yu Zhangsheng, who knew nothing of this, was still feeding his spirit chickens in the Spirit Chicken Garden.
【You successfully fed a spirit chicken, consumed Spirit Rice*20, gained reward 1 point of Essence】
"There are more and more spirit chickens, and the Essence gained from feeding has also increased."
Yu Zhangsheng said with a smile.
Currently, his daily Essence was stable at over two thousand, among which the Essence from the Beast Garden was gradually decreasing, from over one thousand seven hundred to over one thousand two hundred.
Relatively speaking, the Essence harvested from the Spirit Chicken Garden side was steadily increasing, producing over eight hundred a month, and hatching fifty to one hundred new spirit chickens every month.
And besides the harvest of Essence, the sale of the Spirit Chicken King also allowed the Yu Family to live good days; the clansmen's realms had improved quite a bit; for example, his father Yu Chenghe had already stepped into Qi Refining Eighth Layer.
With more Spirit Stones, Yu Zhangsheng's spirit beast cultivation was also proceeding steadily.
"The Alchemy Conference rewarded twenty-six thousand four hundred Contribution Points; plus the original amount, Contribution has now reached forty thousand."
"Exchanging for Foundation Establishment Pill auxiliary materials is no problem."
Yu Zhangsheng secretly calculated in his heart; besides rewarding Sect Contribution, the Alchemy Conference also offered the chance to choose spirit herbs below Third Rank; he must choose the hardest-to-obtain Jade Marrow Mushroom! Besides this, he still lacked two main materials: Purple Monkey Flower and Heavenly Spirit Fruit.
The difficulty of obtaining these two main materials was simpler than Jade Marrow Mushroom; if there was enough time, they could be bought with Spirit Stones.
"Let the family people and Shopkeeper Xi keep an eye out for me first; once the materials are obtained, I can ask Master to refine a batch."
With Gongsun Yang's ability, refining successfully was no problem; it just needed some time.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Yu Zhangsheng frowned and looked toward the distance.
Only to see in the distance at the horizon, a talisman light flew toward this side; it was exactly a Transmission Talisman.
He reached out to catch it and read it with his Divine Sense.
"Huang Suyu is back? Sword Intent is powerful, invincible below Foundation Establishment?"
Yu Zhangsheng showed a surprised expression.
He almost forgot that there was still an enemy within Yujian Peak.
He had killed the other party's younger brother; based on the other party's rumored personality, he definitely would not let him go; now that the other party had not come to find him for a long time, it might be because he was only at Qi Refining Seventh Layer, his strength was low, and not worth looking at.
"Once the other party reaches Foundation Establishment, or frees up his hands, he will probably find an opportunity to deal with me."
Yu Zhangsheng suddenly felt a sense of crisis; according to what Zhuang Yan said, with his current strength, facing Huang Suyu would probably be more ominous than fortunate.
"I think breaking through to Qi Refining Peak in a short time is not likely; I can only continue cultivating spirit beasts!"
Yu Zhangsheng thought to himself; the Spirit Beast Four Extremes Array had not yet been mastered; if the Red Tempered Snake, Golden-Winged Great Eagle, and Green-Flowered Deer could cooperate well, facing Huang Suyu at First Rank Eighth Layer Realm was not without a chance.
"He has gone into closed-door cultivation again, while I stay at Beast Taming Peak and still have time to develop."
"In a few more days, I will be able to break through to Qi Refining Eighth Layer!"
Yu Zhangsheng formed hand seals to summon the Red Tempered Snake, Golden-Winged Great Eagle, and Green-Flowered Deer, clapped his hands, and shouted: "Alright, partners, continue training!"
