Chapter 24: Prodigy of the Joyous Sect
Currently, a young man accompanied by three beautiful women climbed the Skysword Mountain. What was most astonishing that all three women of this group had at least Xiantian cultivation base. Of them one had grade 6 Xiantian base and the other two being 1st Grade Xiantian, indicating they just achieved breakthrough not long ago.
On the other hand, the Young man looked more extraordinary. Just his body exuded a sense of vitality which was even rare among Martial King's! He had a chiseled face and broad back. Snow white skin that even girls might be jealous of! Obviously, his strength was even more mysterious!
"Old Fogey Baili, did you consider my offer? Just hand her over and I'll make sure the next few generations of your sect flourish well. Plus, it shouldn't be an unfavorable condition for her either. If she dual cultivates with me, she can breakthrough by leaps and bounds and reach a realm she can't even imagine right now." The young man had an extremely arrogant look and women behind him didn't find his words strange either. In fact, without this Young Man, they couldn't imagine about breaking through by leaps and bounds.
"Huan Jing kid, even though you are a young prodigy of the Joyous Sect, you should still behave properly. Not everyone might give you face like me. I have already outright rejected your ridiculous idea. You can scram!" Baili Jingwei, also known as Skysword Immortal, the Sect Master of Skysword Sect had a calm face but only he knew his inner turmoil.
Although he was a young kid, his strength was much higher than himself. He even expected him to be a Martial King! In the backwater of Greencloud Continent, Martial King's were considered as experts and can only be found in the rare case. Even he, Skysword Immortal, only had the cultivation base of 8th Grade Xiantian. How ridiculous was a Martial King in his 20's?!
"Old Fogey, don't test my patience. I've already wasted too much on you! Bring out Yiye Jiange! I heard she is a peerless and absolute beauty. If it wasn't for Forest Master instructing me to not make too much trouble, I wouldn't have even given a face to your sect. This is your last chance!" To him, Huan Jing, it was no simple obsession for beauty. Last year, he started cultivating Joyous Sect's founding technique. After the founding master of Joyous Sect, none could cultivate this technique!
With the help of this technique, the girls behind him broke through by leaps and bounds! Most of all, his own increase in cultivation was much stronger than anyone else. Although the sect had many girls and women, he already lost interest from them and the advantage he could get from them while 'cultivating' almost amounted nothing.
Aside from the woman with the highest cultivation, the other two are like this. They were originally a Houtian but achieved a breakthrough after they started their cultivation with him! Although their beauty was not too rare, they were still cream of the crop! He already had his eyes on the Beauty of Cang Lang Country, but he was still cautious on trying to extend a hand on her without confirming her background. Someone like the Beauty of Cang Lang Country must either have an exceptional background or Intimidating Power, else no one would leave the soft piece of meat!
With the cultivation technique, he also found some ancient scriptures. The scriptures contained some information about women with Divine Body. Every woman who had divine body were exceptional beauty akin to some Fairies and Immortals. Although he knew the chance of encountering someone with Divine Body almost nil, he could at least add some new beauty to his collection.
"Kid, I'm giving you an inch and you are asking for a mile! Scram, or don't complain if I act ruthlessly!" Baili Jinwei didn't show his weakness either, he was the sect master of this sect, Skysword Immortal! He felt thankful that he sent Yiye Jiange on a mission just before this mess found the way to his sect. If she was here, she would definitely surrender to ensure their safety.
"Good! Good! Old Fogey, your eyes seemed to have rotten after so many years. Let's see who's the ruthless one." Baili Jingwei's word irked Huan Jing's pride as he seemed extremely angry.
From Baili Jingwei's vision, Huan Jing suddenly disappeared not long after he felt a hot palm hitting his abdomen. Like a punctured balloon, he flew fast and hit the giant gate of Skysword Sect. His strengthless body fell on the ground. He coughed out a huge amount of blood. He knew the boy must be powerful than him but didn't expect the difference between them being so large. He started feeling his eyes becoming heavier.
"Trash... I have lost my mood today. I will come after 5 days. Remember, this is my last warning..." before losing consciousness Baili Jingwei heard Huan Jing's arrogant voice.
Shen and the trio had no idea about the impending danger as they continued their journey to Skysword Sect. It's been already half a month since Yiye Jiange joined their journey. Shen already discovered the clogs in her meridian set up by a Martial Saint and already instructed her not to consume the Energy-Circulating Fruit since it can possibly injure her meridian.
During the journey, Wenren Wushuang also achieved breakthrough to the Xiantian realm without any help from Shen. She didn't even consume the fruits from Shen but attained Xiantian realm by enlightenment.
While everyone's cultivation increased by leaps and bounds Shen's cultivation didn't remain stagnant either. He also breakthrough twice achieving 10th Grade of the Xiantial Realm. Of course, he could only breakthrough so fast because of Mingyue Gelou! Mingyue Gelou also reached the peak of grade one Xiantian Realm. Her cultivation speed was akin to godlike.
What was most astonishing that Shen didn't feel like he reached the limit of the Xiantian realm even after reaching the 10th Grade. This made him wonder if his cultivation still fell under Kyushu world. He didn't consume the Energy-Circulating Fruit as he wanted to use it after he reached the peak of the Xiantian realm, directly breaking through to the Martial King Realm!
