Chapter 292

~15 min read 2,925 words

Only to see the one-armed Ying Ge flying in.

Extremely agile.

Flying down in front of Xu Jin's door, he stood with his single sword on the ground, and instantly stood in front of Xu Jin like a normal person, confident and calm.

Xu Jin welcomed him out, and the two men hugged each other silently and forcefully. Xu Jin patted Ying Ge's back hard, and the latter's eyes were already a little moist.

Ying Ge knew very well that compared to him a month ago, he was now worlds apart.

And Xu Jin was the creator of all this.

"Come in and sit!"

Xu Jin didn't carry Ying Ge in; they separated, and he strode into the room to sit down. Ying Ge made a beautiful spin and landed steadily on the chair. His body had a few more points of elegance and calmness than when Xu Jin cast it initially.

"It seems that your cultivation base hasn't fallen behind at all recently." Xu Jin had already sensed Ying Ge's cultivation base: ninth layer of Refine Star.

It should be that after his state of mind recovered, he had been cultivating hard.

After Ying Ge nodded, he said excitedly, "Senior Brother, relying on the Art of Object-Controlling Sword, I have already killed my way into the top thousand in the third-tier Practice Arena Secret Realm."

"Top thousand?"

This time, it was Xu Jin's turn to be surprised.

Xu Jin, as a person who had experienced the difficulty of the third-tier Practice Arena Secret Realm, knew it better than anyone.

With Ying Ge's strength, even before he was disabled, it would be very difficult to kill his way into the top two thousand.

Before he was disabled, if Ying Ge's middle and lower star palaces had all reached the ninth layer of Refine Star, and he had practiced well, it would have been possible to kill his way into the top two thousand.

But now...

"To what extent has your Lower Shang Xinggong been cultivated now?" Xu Jin asked.

"Reporting to Senior Brother, the Middle Shang Xinggong is at the peak of the ninth layer of Refine Star, and the Lower Shang Xinggong is at the fifth layer of Refine Star," Ying Ge said respectfully.

This made Xu Jin even more surprised.

"How did you do this? I have also broken into the third-tier Practice Arena Secret Realm, and I feel that with your current cultivation base, being in the top ten thousand is normal," Xu Jin asked suspiciously.

"I guess my Art of Object-Controlling Sword is relatively strange; Senior Brother, take a look."

The next instant, a two-inch-long sword light flew out from Ying Ge's body, golden light flashing, swift and peerless.

The sword light crisscrossed, very powerful, but in Xu Jin's eyes, it was just like that.

But the next instant, another sword light rushed out from Ying Ge's body silently, instantly spinning, which startled Xu Jin.

This sword light was indeed strange.

But the moment Xu Jin praised it, the sword light that broke through and rose suddenly split into two, totaling three sword lights, spinning and advancing like a dragon emerging from the water, fierce and unusual.

Looking at this scene, Xu Jin somewhat understood.

This sword light was indeed strange.

Moreover, looking at it as a whole, the three sword lights were divided into two completely different sword stances.

Ying Ge was using two minds at once!

In an instant, Xu Jin thought of a legendary skill in martial arts novels from his previous life: Left and Right Mutual Fighting!

Ying Ge's sword light was very similar to that.

"You used two kinds of sword stances; it is indeed very strange. How did you do it?" Xu Jin was surprised.

"I have to thank Senior Brother again!"

Ying Ge bowed again, "After my limbs were disabled, I had no chores, and even less social interaction. All day long, besides cultivating, I was cultivating. I figured it out myself.

Originally, cultivating the Art of Object-Controlling Sword consumed the power of the divine soul extremely.

But the Warm Dream Star Pattern that Senior Brother taught me allowed me to quickly recover the power of the divine soul.

I practiced all day long, slept when I was tired, and practiced when I woke up.

Being idle, I thought about trying two kinds of sword stances, and I didn't expect that I would really succeed.

Currently, I am practicing three kinds, but I haven't succeeded yet!

But given time, I should be able to succeed."

This made Xu Jin marvel.

This was truly another kind of creation.

This kind of means similar to Left and Right Mutual Fighting is first talent, and second, hard practice with a calm heart.

If it were the Ying Ge of the past, who was a wealthy young master himself, with constant social interactions and warm jade and fragrant warmth at night, it would be impossible to practice this.

Now, with single-mindedness, he succeeded.

Anyway, for Xu Jin, Xu Jin couldn't practice it.

At least in this state, he couldn't practice it.

"Senior Brother, because of my change, my father has already become independent from the clan. Relying on his previous connections, he has already opened up some business routes. However, my father specially opened a business firm in Hu Jinshan County City and arranged for trusted people to look after Uncle and pay attention to Uncle's state.

If Senior Brother has anything to do in the future, just give instructions, and it can be done within a moment. This is the contact information for the relevant personnel; Senior Brother can just order them if you have anything to do. There is also a fifth-tier expert on standby.

It's just that it wasn't easy to arrange it without authorization before.

If Senior Brother is willing, you can order this person to secretly protect Uncle."

While speaking, Ying Ge handed over a jade tablet.

Xu Jin thanked him first upon hearing this.

This was also Ying Ge's intention.

Xu Jin had been worried about his father's safety and condition before, and the care of the people in the Hu Jinshan Dao Academy was not enough.

The people in the Hu Jinshan Dao Academy could only look after him in major matters.

They didn't have so much leisure time in ordinary times.

Now, Ying Ge had filled this gap and helped him handle a major matter silently.

After pondering for a while, Xu Jin suddenly asked, "Does Uncle Ying have any difficulties in opening a new business firm?"

"Doing business, how can there be no difficulties, but most of them can be solved," Ying Ge smiled.

"If there are difficulties, you can come directly to me. I should be able to..."

Halfway through his words, Xu Jin suddenly froze, remembering the plan that the Grand Master had discussed with him before.

If that plan were executed, he estimated that he wouldn't be useful.

Suddenly, Xu Jin said, "How about this, ask Uncle Ying to come over tomorrow, and I will introduce him to General Manager Peng. If there are any troubles that cannot be solved, General Manager Peng should be able to help!"

Ying Ge was suddenly overjoyed.

This... he had directly reached the heavens!

Who doesn't know the identity of General Manager Peng?

It is difficult for ordinary people to even say a word.

But Senior Brother is introducing him directly!

"Senior Brother, this..." Ying Ge didn't know how to say words of thanks anymore.

"You and I are brothers, no need to say these things."

While speaking, Xu Jin took out a fourth-tier Ten Thousand Blood Spirit Pill and handed it to Ying Ge.

"Take this elixir back and refine it. It should help you break through the bottleneck of the ninth layer of Refine Star and let you break through directly to the fourth-tier Condense Star! After breaking through to the fourth-tier Condense Star, it should allow your cultivation speed to be faster," Xu Jin said.

Ying Ge was stunned and hurriedly declined!

"Senior Brother, this is too precious, I..."

"Less nonsense, take it first to improve your cultivation base. There will be plenty of times for you to repay me later. What's the matter, you don't want to help me?" Xu Jin scolded.

"How could that be!"

Ying Ge was helpless and could only accept it.

Originally, at his cultivation realm, he would generally need to grind for half a year or a year before he could obtain a breakthrough opportunity from the National Dao Academy here.

But now, Xu Jin directly let him break through.

Far ahead of his fellow disciples. Not to mention anything else, the soaring cultivation speed after breaking through to the fourth tier is a huge advantage!

Also, a nineteen-year-old fourth-tier!

What kind of shock it will cause in the family!

A bunch of thirty or forty-year-olds in the family are still trapped in the Refine Star Realm, but he is nineteen and can break through to the fourth tier!

The benefits this brings are chain-linked.

Especially for a disciple of a big family like him!

Also, the relationship with Peng Lao...

As for words of gratitude, Ying Ge didn't say another half a word.

This kind of kindness can only be seen in actions in the future.

Sending Ying Ge away, Xu Jin was also lost in thought.

The plan that the Grand Master had discussed with him before was about to be implemented during the Nine-Star Tide.

Once the plan is successfully implemented, many things will not be convenient for Xu Jin to do.

Although the Grand Master will definitely help, Xu Jin has always liked to walk on two legs.

Ying Ge is the other leg that Xu Jin arranged.

Better safe than sorry.

In the Sacrificial Hall of the Right Libationer Song Bing, Song Bing summoned the Vice Dean Han Qing, asked a few words of concern, and then asked about the details of the battle in the star domain.

Vice Dean Han Qing was a disciple brought out by Song Bing before, so the relationship was naturally different.

Just after asking one sentence, Han Qing said in panic, "Teacher, regarding the details of the battle in the star domain, the Grand Master not only issued a gag order but also used the Nine-Sheng Bronze Bell to impose a restriction. The disciple is really unable to answer."

Song Bing was stunned.

No wonder he couldn't find out a single bit of information about the details of the battle in the star domain; so that was it.

Gag order and the restriction of the Nine-Sheng Bronze Bell, double insurance.

Under such circumstances, even if Han Qing was his disciple, he couldn't say anything.

He could only give up and wave his hand to let Han Qing leave.

Looking at the departing Han Qing, Song Bing frowned deeply. Had Cheng Cheng Yuexiao's precaution against him reached this level?

At the same time, Dean Fang in the Academic Hall also frowned deeply.

His disciple, Fang Ying, had not returned.

He had asked several people but did not get a definite answer. The Grand Master only gave him one answer: Fang Ying is still alive, is performing a secret mission, and will return in a month.

But this made Fang Fang Shinan even more suspicious.

He asked others, but didn't get a single bit of news.

It was said that all those who knew the details of this star domain battle were issued gag orders and restrictions by the Nine-Sheng Bronze Bell.

Fang Fang Shinan could understand all of this.

But according to Fang Fang Shinan's understanding, Kou Jing and Pan Hong both participated in related matters. Among the four Deans, Gao Chu Xuan was from the imperial family, and his natural status was there.

But now, Fang Fang Shinan's treatment was the same as Gao Chu Xuan's.

This made Fang Fang Shinan suddenly feel that he seemed to have been marginalized in the National Dao Academy!

This is not a good signal!

Kou Jing broke through, but he was marginalized!

Fang Fang Shinan began to reflect: when did he start being marginalized?

During the reflection and review, Fang Fang Shinan discovered a key node: Xu Jin!

In the main hall of the Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong, the Great Elder Wang Kan, who had been sent to the Cangming Shang Xinggong and the Zhen'e Shang Xinggong, returned to report. Although the mission was successful, his expression was not that happy, and even a bit helpless.

"What did Cangming say?" Heavenly Yang Tianyang Xingjun looked at Wang Kan and asked.

"My Lord, the Cangming Tianyang Xingjun said that if my Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong kills its way into Da Chen, he will definitely follow," Wang Kan replied.

Heavenly Yang Tianyang Xingjun was happy at first upon hearing this, but then he froze, "Follow? What does this mean? Could it be that he will wait for us to kill our way in and then send people to cheer? Didn't he discuss more specific details with you?"

"No," Wang Kan said helplessly.

Heavenly Yang Tianyang Xingjun's expression became ugly.

Cangming Tianyang Xingjun's attitude, although not opposed, was very perfunctory; this was his attitude.

My Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong kills its way in, and then he follows.

My Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong is not stupid; why would I let your Cangming Shang Xinggong pick up ready-made bargains?

In other words, Cangming Tianyang Xingjun's actual attitude is a refusal!

How could it be like this?

Cangming wasn't like this before.

"What about Zhen'e Tianyang Xingjun, what did he say?"

"Zhen'e Tianyang Xingjun directly refused, saying that this year's tribute is very heavy and he has no time for a long expedition.

If my Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong is willing to help them with one and a half percent of the tribute for the next three years, he might consider it," Wang Kan said.

Heavenly Yang Tianyang Xingjun's brows furrowed again.

Suddenly, he had a feeling of being a lonely man.

This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"Then put this matter aside for now. Recently, pay more attention to the movements of Da Chen, especially the movements of that Xu Jin!

According to the intelligence from Zong Yan of the Sumeru Palace, this Xu Jin's potential is too great!

Now that he has just broken through to the fourth tier, he can break into the fifth-tier star domain and return safely. Then when he reaches the fifth tier or even the sixth tier, how strong will he be?

It's a pity, why isn't he a disciple of my Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong!" Heavenly Yang Tianyang Xingjun sighed.

"My Lord, should your subordinate start the deployment now?"

"Deploy, this time, we must succeed!"

"Yes, your subordinate obeys!"

In the main hall of the Cangming Shang Xinggong, Cangming Tianyang Xingjun was chatting with the Great Elder Sun Sun Xianzu.

"Looking at Heavenly Yang's intention, he actually wants to take this opportunity to completely destroy Da Chen. In the past, I only cared about suppressing Da Chen and didn't pay attention to Heavenly Yang.

If Da Chen is really destroyed, the most dangerous one might be us instead."

While speaking, Cangming Tianyang Xingjun looked at the Great Elder Sun Sun Xianzu, "Great Elder, do you understand?"

Sun Sun Xianzu pondered for a while and nodded, "My Lord, your subordinate already understands! In the future, my Cangming's overall strategy will slowly and firmly shift; we must start uniting with Da Chen and the Zhen'e Shang Xinggong to find ways to weaken the Heavenly Yang Shang Xinggong."

Hearing this, Cangming Tianyang Xingjun nodded with satisfaction; this Great Elder was still very easy to use.

"Remember that the movement must be slow, it must be shifted slowly, and the balance of all parties must be mastered.

Especially Da Chen, union is union, but it should be suppressed when it should be suppressed, and weakened when it should be weakened; we cannot let it grow big!

Pay attention to that Xu Jin of theirs; during the Nine-Star Tide, if he is sent out, then take the opportunity to take action," Cangming Tianyang Xingjun said.

"Your subordinate understands."

November 12th.

In less than half a day, Xu Jin completely comprehended the mid-fourth-tier Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern, finished it in his star lamp, and successfully engraved it onto the third star core of the Middle Shang Xinggong.

With the Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern, the power of Xu Jin's Thunder-type star arts increased greatly.

But by comparison, the Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern was the weakest among Xu Jin's main cultivated star arts.

The Earth Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern and Fire Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern were both mid-eighth-tier.

Therefore, the deduction of the Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern was necessary.

In the afternoon, Xu Jin entered the Star Dome Secret Realm again. Although there was no enlightenment time, this did not hinder Xu Jin from comprehending and deducing star patterns in the Star Dome Secret Realm.

At least it was very quiet and safe here, and no one disturbed him.

【Whether to consume ten silver stars to open one ordinary Dao derivation.】

In the Star-Plucking Secret Realm, Xu Jin had saved up ten silver stars again. This time, it happened to be used to deduce low-tier star patterns.

【Open】

The next instant, Xu Jin's heart sank into the mid-fourth-tier Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern, and at the same time, he triggered the mid-tier Thunder Wing Heart and began to deduce and comprehend this Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern himself.
