One sword cheat

Chapter 28 Harvesting Su Rentong

This was the first time everyone had heard such a straightforward account of the dangers of the ancient world.

The ancient realm is boundless and limitless; human technology simply cannot fathom its end.

Some technologies that are usable on Earth become useless here.

Moreover, the deeper they ventured into the desolate wilderness of the ancient realm, the greater the dangers became. If it weren't for the protection of human sages, they wouldn't have been able to explore the ancient realm, and Earth itself might have already been destroyed.

Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a race in the ancient world that was good at water and was called horseshoe crabs. At a certain time, they caused a boundless flood to pour into the earth.

The human race faced an extremely perilous situation at that time, and in the end, a sage intervened and completely annihilated that race.

Even so, under the blessings and protection of generations of sages, they still found it difficult to go very far.

Civilization stops below the level of sages, and although the human bloodline spread outwards, it was gradually assimilated by the ancient world.

Are we still considered human now? Who can say for sure?

Therefore, strength is very important, and cultivating skills is an urgent matter...

"I should learn a lightness skill so that I can go up and down the mountain quickly, and more importantly, I can escape because I can't use magic without spiritual energy."

Chen Ren was very worried, not only about magic and martial arts, but also because he had hit a bottleneck.

The Stacked Waves Technique lacks the latter three levels, mainly because Zhang Yunqing, the cheap master, has consistently given very lukewarm responses.

However, if he cannot meet the requirement of reaching the seventh level of Qi and Blood in the first-class realm, he cannot upgrade the Calamity Sword.

If I can't upgrade the Calamity Sword, I can't get the spirit stones from Su Rentong into my own hands.

Su Rentong was using his spirit stones every day, which made Chen Ren increasingly distressed, and his sword-drawing value kept increasing.

Not to mention he didn't even have the money to buy the cultivation technique.

Everything has value; no one will give it to you for free. If you want it, you have to pay to exchange it.

He also looked at many missions, including collecting taxes and tributes from large tribes at the foot of the mountain.

They went to help resolve the dangers in the small country at the foot of the mountain.

But with his level of cultivation, it's simply impossible; he'd most likely die if he went down the mountain.

That's where it gets stuck.

Chen Ren had a premonition that once the Calamity Sword was upgraded, there would definitely be great benefits.

"Could my cheap master really be dead?"

Chen Ren began searching online for subsequent techniques of the Overlapping Waves Skill, intending to practice other techniques first and hone his skills to the seventh level of Qi and Blood before making any further progress.

Found it!

"Layered Waves Technique: The best introductory technique for water-element cultivation, its qi and blood surge like waves, each layer more turbulent than the last, continuous and unbroken."

The pricing is divided into three parts: lower three parts at 30, middle three parts at 300, and upper three parts at 500.

500……

Chen Ren stared at the price and suddenly realized... was it because his master didn't have money to buy him a cultivation technique?

To verify this idea, Chen Ren sent a message to Zhang Yunqing:

"Master, I've discovered that the last three levels of the Overlapping Waves Technique require 500 million."

There was no reply, but...

[Ding: Sword drawing skill +100.]

Clearly, a minimum of 100 sword-drawing points is something only someone at the Foundation Establishment level can contribute. Zhang Yunqing saw the message.

She's still alive. She's not ignoring the phone; she's just poor.

Chen Ren thought for a moment, then moved his finger and said:

"Master, I have already reached the sixth level of Qi and Blood cultivation, and I urgently need the next three levels of cultivation techniques!"

[Ding: Sword drawing skill +130.]

The cheap master has pretty good self-control.

Chen Ren then unleashed his trump card: "Master, are you poor?"

[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +300!!!]

Such a high level of sword-drawing intensity only occurred when Su Rentong was expelled from his sect!

[Sword Drawing Value: 1135/100]

My sword-drawing value has finally surpassed 1000!

It was because Zhang Yunqing had accumulated a lot of sword-drawing points that Chen Ren sent three messages. After that, he sent another message, but there was no response.

Perhaps his cheap master had developed antibodies by today, so Chen Ren regretfully gave up.

However, it's not bad to have the sword-drawing value to farm and reduce the negative effects every day, since I haven't reached the limit of the sixth level of Qi and Blood yet.

…………

On this side of Earth, inside the Shangqing Palace, Zhang Yunqing ignored the ringing of her phone, forcibly suppressing her unpleasant expression.

Chen Ren is a flawless physique, but I didn't expect his cultivation to progress so quickly. I was a bit careless. I should have added the conditions for the last three levels to the cultivation with Wenren Yu back then.

I shouldn't pretend to be aloof or arrogant.

She pulled out an account book from under her desk and slowly flipped through the entries.

Wangjia Lending Platform: Overdue for three months, totaling over 612 million yuan.

Zhang Jia's credit loan: Overdue for five months, totaling over 411 million yuan.

"Hot Summer Loan: Overdue for one year and five days, totaling over 902 million..."

Her eyelids twitched, then she realized she had taken the wrong booklet and took out another one.

Tianshi Cave Wenyue: Owes 106.3.

"Zhang Baoli of Laojun Pavilion: Owes 25.6."

Liao Yundao of Feixian Temple: Owes 19.65...

A drop in the ocean...

Looking at the booklet, Zhang Yunqing was somewhat dazed. She was injured and dared not go to the Ancient Realm. How was she supposed to get the money?

She gazed wistfully into the distance, wondering if she should ask her master for help. After all, she had promised to personally teach her disciple the cultivation technique.

Master and the others probably don't know that he really can't come up with ten million to bribe the Spirit Nourishing Herb.

My fellow disciples have all passed away. These past two years at Shangqing Palace have been very difficult.

Ugh……

With a soft sigh, Zhang Yunqing got up and went out, the only sound the wind blowing through the notebook containing the money others owed her...

Junior colleague Li Yunfang: Owes 1022 million.

Junior apprentice Luo Yunxi: Owes 1311 million.

Sixth Junior Brother Gu Yunbo: Owes 963 million...

[Ding: Sword drawing skill +100.]

In the ancient realm, Chen Ren heard that familiar voice again, and his eyes lit up. Perhaps his cheap master had had a change of heart again.

This was the first time he had more than a thousand sword-drawing points, and he couldn't wait to head up the mountain near the Celestial Master Cave.

Su Rentong has been allowed to grow for quite some time now; it's time to harvest the leeks when they're ripe.

With his cultivation at the sixth level of Qi and Blood, his stamina and speed are not to be underestimated. Even without practicing lightness skills, he can easily leap more than ten meters, and going down the mountain is practically like flying.

The peaks from Shangqing Palace to Tianshi Cave are adjacent, so the journey doesn't take too long.

Since learning about Aoki Gen's technique, Chen Ren has found out where Su Rentong is.

She practiced Qingmu Yuan every day, and by following the clues, they quickly discovered her whereabouts.

At this moment, Su Rentong was walking down the mountain with Zhang Yunmiao. She was walking in front and Zhang Yunmiao was following behind.

"Junior Sister, now that you've learned the Azure Wood Origin, it's time for you to start working on the eighth level of Qi Condensation."

Zhang Yunmiao probed, "I sensed an obstacle. I didn't expect the constraints to increase so significantly in the ancient realm. I might fall behind you this time."

As long as you cultivate, there will be obstacles every time you break through a new realm; it's impossible to always have smooth sailing.

The more spiritual energy you absorb from the ancient realm, the heavier your karma becomes, and the stronger your calamities will be.

Some people take their time and persevere, while others spare no effort and expend a great deal of spiritual energy to achieve their goal in one go.

This is where qualifications come into play.

"Really? I didn't feel any obstacles, but the spirit stones consumed were indeed a bit too much. Perhaps you could go into seclusion for a while, senior brother. I believe you will definitely be able to break through soon."

Su Rentong had a barely perceptible look of superiority on her face. She was really talented and beautiful, so she could be said to have enjoyed all the benefits in Tianshi Cave.

But she was actually getting a little annoyed with Zhang Yunmiao. This guy was always by her side, and other suitors thought he was their boyfriend, which was getting in the way of her getting any benefits.

She also added a few of her senior brothers as friends. The most foolish one, upon hearing that she needed resources, immediately sent her a spirit stone.

Spirit stones are valuable. If you use spirit stones to cultivate, the karmic burdens and tribulations will be much lighter, and it will be easier to break through to higher realms.

Unbeknownst to the two, someone in the distance was watching them with binoculars.

Chen Ren was tracking Su Rentong's whereabouts. Every day, she would cultivate the Azure Wood Essence to consolidate her cultivation, and then go home to cultivate with his spirit stones.

hateful!

The reason he hasn't made a move is because Chen Ren hasn't found the right opportunity.

That damned Zhang Yunmiao is always following Su Rentong around, eating together, resting next door, he's a total simp.

You can't draw the sword from any distance; you have to be able to reach your opponent first.

Chen Ren discovered that this was related to the range of influence of his Qi and blood. Now, when he unleashed his Qi and blood, it could affect a radius of five meters around him. In other words, the range of the Calamity Sword required a distance of at least five meters.
