Chapter 1927 (Raw 2028): Preparations in Every Aspect

After Xiao Chen completed absorbing the thunder flame, the spot of light made up of the Thunder Great Dao suddenly soared straight up by ten meters.

The Thunder Dao had reached Great Perfection!

Xiao Chen’s Great Dao Might spread throughout Cold Moon Cave.

His Thunder Dao’s Dao Might encased the entire city-sized Cold Moon Cave. Thunderclouds covered the sky.

Xiao Chen felt that his control of the Thunder Dao was smoother and easier than before.

“Whoosh!”

With a thought, Xiao Chen turned into a flash of lightning and leaped about Cold Moon Cave.

From a distance, one would just see a beam of electric light jumping around the residence.

Then, this beam of light sped up, creating many afterimages. Chaotic electric light would fill the eyes of an observer.

Gather!

In that instant, the electric light vanished, and Xiao Chen revealed himself, hovering in the air.

Xiao Chen revealed a smile. The Thunder Dao was now at Great Perfection. All his Martial Techniques, Cultivation Techniques, and Magic Skills that used the lightning attribute reached a new level.

It was the same for Light of Freedom. As free as light, moving as my thoughts want.

With just a thought, Xiao Chen could turn into lightning and leap to anywhere within his line of sight.

The considerably improved nimbleness of his Movement Technique made him lose himself slightly, immersed in the rush of it.

Xiao Chen landed firmly. Then, he stretched out his hand and grasped the Tyrant Saber’s scabbard.

He wondered if the Tyrant Saber would improve further, now that his Thunder Dao had improved.

Xiao Chen remembered how he had activated the second form of the Tyrant Saber when he succeeded in comprehending the Thunder Dao.

The Tyrant Saber was now purple and gave off a dreamlike purple light. Its might was now that of a peak inherited Dao Tool.

Xiao Chen closed his eyes and grasped the scabbard. Then, he continuously infused his Thunder Dao into the Tyrant Saber.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Surging thunderclouds rushed over like a river at full spate.

Streaks of electric light tore through the sky, looking extremely terrifying. Invisible strands of aura landed on Xiao Chen, turning his presence incredibly tyrannical.

There seemed to be an even more dreadful existence among the horrifying thunderclouds. As Xiao Chen infused his Thunder Dao into the Tyrant Saber, a mysterious gate seemed to be opening in the thunderclouds.

Soon! Soon!

Xiao Chen sensed that the inherited Secret Technique of the Tyrant Saber would be revealed soon.

He roared, and the Thunder Dao berserkly infused into the saber.

“Boom!”

Instantly, his full head of black hair flew about messily. His delicate face looked like it was further augmented by a brush, turning more masculine.

A scarlet flame suddenly surged up the purple saber blade. The thunderclouds in the sky scattered, and the mysterious gate opened.

However, the instant after this flame surged up, blazing fiercely, it died.

The saber turned back to purple, and the mysterious gate in the sky closed.

“Clang!”

“I’m still a little short,” Xiao Chen said with some regret after sheathing the saber. He now had a vague idea of what this inherited Secret Technique was.

It was a soul!

When the past masters of the Tyrant Saber died, their souls were probably infused into this saber.

Why did this saber not have an Item Spirit? It was because the souls of the many generations of the Tyrant Saber’s masters continuously merged into it.

This saber no longer needed an Item Spirit.

Or rather, the spirit formed by the fusion of the past masters was the Item Spirit of this saber.

Although Xiao Chen was still a little short, he saw hope. In the end, it was a good thing.

She said that if Martial Uncle found another saber, not to forget your original intention and to name it Moon Seeking.

For some reason, the message that Ao Jiao got someone to pass on came to mind.

Actually, the saber I love the most will forever be the Lunar Shadow Saber, Xiao Chen sighed to himself. Then, he took out the box sealing the Lunar Shadow Saber and slowly opened it.

The two halves of the broken Lunar Shadow Saber lay peacefully in the box.

The Lunar Shadow Saber had accompanied Xiao Chen for many years. Now, its might was too weak, not even equivalent to a Dao Tool’s.

However, Xiao Chen’s feelings for this saber surpassed that for the Soul Tools.

As he gazed at the saber, he thought about his past.

The Lunar Shadow Saber represented his past. It represented the various experiences he had in the Kunlun Realm. Be it Liu Ruyue, Ao Jiao, or the unforgettable people of the Kunlun Realm, they all had something to do with this saber.

Xiao Chen took out one half of the saber and gently caressed it as scenes of the past appeared before his mind’s eye.

His expressions changed according to the scenes he saw as he let his thoughts wander.

After Xiao Chen put the Lunar Shadow Saber away again, he sighed and took out that blade of grass.

He intended to focus fully on the Saber Great Dao in the remaining time.

—

At the same time, Xiao Jinyu, Yi Qianyun, Qin Yan, Fang Tianyi, and the others were making full use of their time to cultivate bitterly.

There was only one heaven-class core disciple slot. These people found this somewhat unacceptable.

Before the huge pressure, all of them put in their full effort and bitterly cultivated. Everyone had only one thought: to obtain that slot.

“Very good. Your Sword Great Dao reached Great Perfection,” Elder Tian Yun said with satisfaction as he looked at Xiao Jinyu, who stood in front of him covered in sword wounds.

Xiao Jinyu panted continuously. His entire body hurt, but his heart pounded with excitement.

Success!

Xiao Jinyu had worked hard since entering the Heavenly Dragon Palace. For close to half a year, he endured tremendous torture from Elder Tian Yun every day.

Xiao Jinyu’s Sword Great Dao finally made a breakthrough, reaching Great Perfection.

Elder Tian Yun said, “I’ll teach you a set of Sword Techniques now to complement your Great Perfection Sword Dao. The heaven-class core disciple slot must go to you.”

“Many thanks, Master.”

“There’s no need to thank me. Your accomplishments are all due to your own efforts. You relied on the hatred in your heart. The Sword Technique I will teach you is called the Dark Cloud Sword Technique. It will be able to bring out the hatred in your heart to the limit, materializing the full might of the Sword Great Dao.”

Elder Tian Yu waved his hand, and a secret manual landed in Xiao Jinyu’s hands.

“Dark Cloud Sword Technique?”

Xiao Jinyu flipped through the secret manual. Soon, he showed an expression of uncontainable excitement.

This was actually a Peak Grade Earth Ranked Sword Technique. No wonder Elder Tian Yun said that it would bring out the full might of Xiao Jinyu’s Sword Great Dao.

Aside from the Primogenitor Grade Cultivation Techniques and the Mystery Grade Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques directly comprehended from the Primogenitor Grade Cultivation Techniques, the other Martial Techniques in the world were categorized into three grades: Heaven Grade, Earth Grade, and Mortal Grade. Each grade was subdivided into four subgrades: Inferior, Medial, Superior, and Peak.

Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques could only be found and not sought. They were too rare. Even if one managed to find one, it might not be suitable for one to practice or cultivate directly.

Within the Cloud Sea Realm, even Sovereign Personages would generally get to practice only Peak Grade Earth Ranked Martial Techniques at best.

By giving Xiao Jinyu the Dark Cloud Sword Technique, Elder Tian Yun clearly demonstrated his great expectations of his disciple.

“This disciple will definitely not let you down and will obtain the heaven-class core disciple slot. I will also definitely make that Xiao Chen regret the words he said at the dueling plaza!” Xiao Jinyu said seriously after closing the secret manual.

Elder Tian Yun clearly felt satisfied with Xiao Jinyu’s attitude. He nodded and said, “Good. Be it your confidence, your aura, or your situation, they have all nearly reached the peak. When you successfully practice the Sword Technique, you will definitely be unrivaled among the core disciples.”

“Master, this disciple has a question.”

“Ask.”

“Who caused the mysterious phenomenon on top of the Heavenly Dragon a few days ago?”

Xiao Jinyu had seen that majestic mysterious phenomenon that day. That scene had shocked him and also cast heavy doubts in his heart.

Unfortunately, information about this matter had been sealed. Even Elder Tian Yun did not know the truth. He replied, “It was the Third Palace Master. This matter has nothing to do with you for now. If you can become a heaven-class core disciple, you will be able to go to the main peak to cultivate and personally feel the Heavenly Dragon’s Dragon Might.”

The Third Palace Master?

Xiao Jinyu felt inspired. No wonder. It turns out that it was a mysterious phenomenon caused by the Third Palace Master.

One day, I will stand at the top of the Heavenly Dragon as well. The entire Heavenly Dragon Palace will focus its attention on me.

While Xiao Jinyu made breakthroughs, the other rich clan core disciples that had joined at the same time he had—Qin Yan, Fang Tianyi, and the others—did not stagnate, either.

All of them had their own trump cards and were fully confident.

These people had True Dragon bloodlines and did not lack resources or talent. After they came to the Heavenly Dragon Palace, they were like fish in water. All of them managed to gain heaven-class Elders as their masters. With experts guiding them, they improved rapidly.

Until the day of the heaven-class core disciple selection, no one knew who was the strongest.

As for Yi Qianyun, he knew that he was different from the others. He could not compete with the resources and connections of these rich clan disciples.

However, he was not stupid, either. He thought of ways to get his lackeys to suppress the inner palace disciples and snatch their resources.

Yi Qianyun did his best to push his middle-stage Holy Venerate cultivation to Great Perfection.

At the same time, he visited an expert in the sect. After making some promises, he obtained a Secret Technique that could bring out his advantage in cultivation to its fullest, the Senior Dragon Art.

This would allow Yi Qianyun to instantly solidify his Holy Venerate Will with a thought.

The condensed Holy Venerate Will would turn into a dragon-shaped senior. That would be enough to sweep through the place.

Those with lower cultivation would not even be able to touch Yi Qianyun before being suppressed.

Clearly, Yi Qianyun put in all this effort to practice this Senior Dragon Art to counter Xiao Chen in particular.

“You are just a late-stage Star Venerate. Let’s see how you are going to compete with me!”

A sinister smile appeared in Yi Qianyun’s face. While Xiao Chen’s potential might be greater and he might end up overtaking him in the future, this heaven-class core disciple selection did not leave Xiao Chen much time.

All Yi Qianyun wanted was to trample Xiao Chen down and become a heaven-class core disciple.

Once Yi Qianyun became a heaven-class core disciple and entered Ancestor Dragon City in the future, he would be confident of remaining above Xiao Chen and pulling the difference between them further apart, not letting Xiao Chen have a chance to turn the situation around.

The heaven-class core disciple slot was an opportunity. Yi Qianyun had to trample on everyone, be it Xiao Chen, Xiao Jinyu, or the others.

Only he was qualified to become a heaven-class core disciple.

“I have endured for so many years. I absolutely will not let your bunch of disciples who just entered the Heavenly Dragon Palace for half a year get your way!”
