The Rise of the Sect: I am the most persistent person in the world of immortal cultivation

soon.

Ye Yang's ten days of instruction at the Dao Alliance passed in a flash.

The morning mist had not yet dissipated from the Lingxiao City martial arts arena.

Ye Yang has finished disassembling the last set of "Sword and Blade Combination Formation Breaking Technique".

As the last wisp of sword energy dissipated.

The cheers from the disciples below the stage once again resounded through the sky.

Under Ye Yang's tutelage these past few days, these people have made visible progress in their cultivation and combat skills.

Even the few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who initially had doubts now looked at Ye Yang with nothing but complete awe.

Ye Yang floated gracefully above the void.

He sheathed his sword, and the wrinkles on his blue Taoist robe slowly smoothed out as he moved slightly.

Ye Yang's gaze swept over the disciples present, his tone remaining calm.

"Fellow Daoists, the cultivation method has been passed on. Enlightenment is up to you. I shall take my leave now."

The moment he finished speaking, Ye Yang's Dao power surged.

The Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword and the Evil King Blade seemed to possess sentience and floated to his side on their own.

Immediately afterwards, he transformed into two streams of light that wrapped around his figure and rushed towards the sky.

In no time, he transformed into a dazzling sword light and vanished from the spot, leaving only a faint blue afterimage behind.

"We respectfully bid farewell to Dao Ancestor Ye!"

On the training ground, nearly a thousand cultivators bowed in unison upon seeing this place, their voices resounding like thunder through the sky.

The disciples who had gained much here during this period looked at the rapidly receding sword light with eyes full of reluctance and reverence.

Many people murmured their appreciation for the gains they had made over the past ten days.

One of the inner disciples, who had just broken through to a higher realm, gripped his longsword tightly, his voice trembling with excitement.

"If it weren't for Master Ye's guidance, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to comprehend the 'Spiritual Sense Entering the Subtle' technique even after three more years. I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life!"

Not only him, but also other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators nodded repeatedly, feeling that they had gained a lot.

And the other side.

Just as the sword light that Ye Yang had transformed into was about to burst out of the protective array of Lingxiao City.

A faint, moon-white ripple suddenly appeared in the void ahead.

Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly walked out from within, dressed in a moon-white Taoist robe. Upon seeing this person, Ye Yang hurriedly bowed.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Jin Yu."

Jin Yu Daoist stood tall and straight, his face earnest. When he saw the sword light coming, he not only did not dodge, but stepped forward and cupped his hands in greeting to the sword light.

"Dao Ancestor Ye, please wait! I have something important to tell you!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yang dispersed his sword light, and his figure reappeared.

He hovered in the void, his gaze calmly fixed on Daoist Jin Yu.

"Fellow Daoist Jin Yu, please speak frankly."

"Please forgive me, Dao Ancestor. I did not mean to obstruct you. There were too many people and too many eyes in the training ground just now, and there were some things that were inconvenient to say in public, so I waited here."

He looked up, his eyes burning with passion.

"Over the past ten days, the Dao Ancestor has been teaching in Lingxiao City, which has not only greatly improved the combat power of the Dao Alliance disciples, but also greatly benefited us older generation cultivators."

“My master finished his seclusion yesterday. After hearing about the ‘Sword and Saber Combination Formation Breaking Technique’ taught by the Dao Ancestor, he specially sent me to see him off, saying that the Dao Ancestor’s punishment had been completed.”

As soon as Jin Yu Dao Ren finished speaking, he reached into his robes with his right hand and took out a brocade pouch embroidered with a light blue lotus pattern.

The brocade pouch was made of a material that resembled silk but was not quite silk. It shimmered with a warm, subtle light and felt as light as a feather, yet it faintly exuded a hidden fluctuation of Dao power.

“My master said that the Dao Ancestor’s teachings over the past ten days have been beneficial to the Dao Alliance. The Dao Alliance has always been fair in its rewards and punishments, and this brocade pouch is far more than just a token of my master’s goodwill. Please accept it, Dao Ancestor.”

Ye Yang nodded, his gaze falling on the brocade pouch. His fingertips twitched slightly, and a wisp of spiritual consciousness quietly peeked out.

However, the surface of the brocade pouch seemed to have an invisible barrier. As soon as spiritual sense touched it, it was gently repelled without any backlash or revealing its contents. It was clear that it had been sealed by the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal with profound methods.

He tried to sense the aura within, but only detected a trace of pure, righteous sword intent, clear and peaceful, without any impurities.

"This junior thanks the Sword Immortal for his kindness."

Ye Yang withdrew his spiritual sense, a faint smile appearing on his face, and reached out to take the brocade pouch.

"Since it is the Sword Immortal's kind intention, I would be impolite to refuse."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he still felt somewhat apprehensive when facing cultivators above the level of Thunder Tribulation Dao Ancestor.

Since the other party has said this and given a gift, it means that this ordeal is over.

Seeing that he accepted the gift, Jin Yu Dao Ren showed a look of satisfaction on his face and bowed again.

"You're too kind, Dao Ancestor. My master often says that on the path of cultivation, one can go fast alone, but go far together. Now that the demon race is pressing in, it is the time for us cultivators to work together. Exchanging some insights is simply our duty."

"What the Dao Ancestor imparted over these ten days, whether it was the method of spiritual perception or the skill of combining swords and blades, was all precious and far surpassed ordinary cultivation techniques and secret manuals."

"Many disciples have had sudden enlightenment and breakthroughs, and even cultivators like us whose cultivation has stagnated for many years have gained a lot of inspiration. The entire Dao Alliance will never forget this kindness."

"Although I had heard of Daozu Ye's unparalleled skill in both swordsmanship and sabers, and his unparalleled combat prowess, I had only heard it with my own eyes. It was only after witnessing you break through the encirclement of ten Yuan Shen Realm cultivators while blindfolded, and then impart all your knowledge to me, that I realized what a true 'genius' really is!"

"In my more than five hundred years of life, I have never seen anyone comprehend the art of combining swords and sabers to such a level. Not only is he exceptionally powerful in combat, but he is also capable of teaching and imparting knowledge. Such abilities are rare indeed!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yang showed no smugness on his face, but simply shook his head slightly, his tone carrying a hint of melancholy.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. I was merely doing my duty; it's nothing."

"Moreover, I killed the Dao Ancestor of the Dao Alliance in the past, so this can be considered compensation."

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and gently stroked the blade of the Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword. The blade trembled slightly, as if it were responding to his words.

Ye Yang nodded and no longer declined.

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Cultivation techniques are easy to obtain, but enlightenment is hard to find. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."

May the Dao Ancestor have a safe journey!

Taoist Jin Yu bowed and saw them off.

Ye Yang's body once again glowed with a blue light.

The Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword and the Evil King Blade resonated together, transforming into a dazzling sword light that broke through the protective array of Lingxiao City and sped off into the distance.

The Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword and the Evil King Blade floated beside him, emitting a faint bluish-black light.

Ye Yang flew through the air for three hours and then spotted the Flying Heaven Sect's mountain gate in the distance.

Sensing the familiar presence, Ye Yang's tense mind relaxed slightly, and a hint of warmth flashed in his eyes.

He slowly descended and landed in front of the Flying Heaven Gate.

Upon seeing Ye Yang's return, the gatekeeper disciple immediately bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Dao Ancestor!"

Ye Yang nodded in acknowledgment and stepped into the mountain gate. Upon entering the Flying Heaven Gate, the familiar fragrance of grass and trees, along with the spiritual energy of the mountains, rushed towards him.

Ye Yang walked straight toward his "Quiet Mind Pavilion".

Inside the Tranquil Pavilion, surrounded by lush bamboo and babbling brooks, the air is filled with spiritual energy. This place has long been transformed into a suitable retreat for meditation.

Ye Yang pushed open the bamboo door, quickly set up a simple soundproof barrier, and then took out the brocade pouch from his robes.
Light streamed through the window lattice onto the brocade pouch, casting a soft glow. For a moment, even the lotus patterns seemed to come alive, swaying gently.

Previously within the Dao Alliance.

Because of Jin Yu Dao Ren's presence, he had not investigated carefully. Now that he was alone, he could finally find out the truth.

Thinking of this, Ye Yang condensed a wisp of gentle Dao power at his fingertips and slowly reached towards the seal of the brocade pouch.

Unlike before, this time, as soon as the Dao power touched the brocade pouch, it felt a gentle pulling force.

Then, the invisible barrier at Anfengkou quietly disappeared, clearly indicating that the restriction set up by the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal had been automatically removed.

Ye Yang gently untied the knot in the brocade pouch.

Immediately afterwards, a rich yet understated medicinal fragrance wafted over.

Along with the aroma of herbs came a faint, powerful sword intent mixed with a sharp edge, clear and pure.

Ye Yang turned the brocade pouch upside down.

Immediately afterwards, a yellowed animal hide scroll slipped out and landed steadily in his palm.

The animal hide scroll was tough and slightly cool to the touch, and it seemed to be a prescription for an elixir.

"The 'Barrier-Breaking Azure Nether Pill' used by ancient Void Refinement cultivators?"

Ye Yang's gaze swept over the title of the prescription, and a look of shock suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Although he focused on the art of swordsmanship, he also read widely and had a deep understanding of alchemy.

Especially when he first started practicing cultivation, he became more proficient in the art of water-based alchemy, thus completing his initial cultivation accumulation.

However, in the cultivation world, low-level pill formulas are easy to find, but pills that work on high-level cultivators above the Nascent Soul Dao Realm are extremely precious and rare.

I haven't heard much about the name "Breaking Barrier Azure Nether Pill".

However, something that could be entrusted to him with such care by the Thunder Tribulation Dao Ancestor was clearly no ordinary matter.

Thinking of this, Ye Yang gently stroked the writing on the animal skin scroll with his fingertips and began to study it carefully.

"This pill can temper the foundation of one's cultivation, expand the meridians of one's cultivation power, and break through the barriers of one's cultivation realm..."

After carefully studying it, Ye Yang's lips curled into a smile.

The further a cultivator progresses, the more difficult their cultivation becomes.

Cultivators at the Refinement Void Realm and above face even greater challenges in their cultivation, as each advancement requires a massive amount of spiritual energy and a long period of time.

Throughout history, countless geniuses have fallen here.

This "Breakthrough Azure Nether Pill" can directly affect the realm barrier of the Void Refining Realm. Such an effect is simply heaven-defying!

He continued reading, and the prescription detailed the required medicinal materials.

"Millennial Green Lotus Heart, Green Ice Marrow Grass, Dragon Blood Vine, Meteorite Sand..."

Each medicinal herb is an extremely rare and precious natural treasure, especially the "Millennial Star Lotus Heart," which is a crystallization of stellar power gathered deep within the starry sky and is extremely rare.

"This gift is truly generous."

Ye Yang spread them out and then carefully studied the method of refining the pill formula.

He is skilled in water-based alchemy. If this pill is made using the "water-refining method," it requires pure spiritual water as a guide, supplemented by his own Dao power, to peel away and fuse the medicinal properties of the herbs layer by layer.

The process requires extreme precision; even the slightest error could lead to failure.

"The method of water training emphasizes using softness to overcome hardness, which is exactly the same as the sword techniques I have recently come to understand."

A flash of understanding crossed Ye Yang's eyes. He got up and walked to the clear spring behind Jingxin Pavilion.

This spring is the source of the spiritual vein of the Flying Heaven Sect's territory. The water is pure and contains rich spiritual energy, which is extremely rare in this Star Sea Demon Realm. It is unknown how much effort it took to move it here.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Yang took out a Green Ice Marrow Grass as an experiment.

This Green Ice Marrow Grass is an extremely rare cold-natured spiritual herb in the cultivation world, growing only in the core area of ​​the "Extremely Cold Spiritual Vein".

These kinds of spiritual veins are mostly hidden at the bottom of glaciers that have never melted for thousands of years, or in small worlds deep in the starry sea where no light shines. Only after growing for thousands of years can they give birth to the first seedling.

If it weren't for the fact that the Flying Heaven Gate has star-based locations like the Purple Palace Star Land, obtaining this medicine would have been truly difficult.

now.

According to the alchemical formula, Ye Yang sat cross-legged by the spring, his hands forming a mudra, and a wisp of Daoist power slowly flowed into the spring water.

The spiritual water, drawn by the power of the Dao, transformed into a crystal-clear stream that coiled around the spiritual herb.

He closed his eyes, his spiritual sense highly concentrated, sensing the medicinal properties of the herb flowing in the water.

"Remove impurities!"

Ye Yang silently recited the mantra, and his Dao power slightly rotated, causing the water lines to tighten. The soil and useless fibers on the surface of the spiritual herb were slowly peeled off, turning into tiny particles that sank to the bottom of the water.

Immediately afterwards, he increased the output of his Dao power, and the water line began to rotate at high speed. The medicinal properties of the spiritual herbs were extracted little by little and dissolved into the water, quickly forming a faint green halo.

"Pharmacological integration".

Immediately afterwards, Ye Yang's fingertips twitched slightly, and countless ever-changing Dao Qi suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Those Daoist energies guided the medicinal properties in the water to circulate along specific trajectories.

However, right from the start, the medicinal properties became disordered, and the green aura instantly dimmed.

"Pills that work on those at the Refinement of Void realm and above are indeed not so easy to refine."

Ye Yang readjusted his state and injected Dao power again.

This time, he no longer deliberately controlled the water flow.

Instead, he allowed the power of the Dao to flow naturally with the spring water, just like the "borrowing strength to strike back" method he taught his disciples when he was teaching his art.

Soon the medicinal properties of the herb were extracted smoothly, forming a stable green halo in the water.

Within that green halo, one could vaguely see the medicinal properties slowly blending together, emanating a faint vitality.

Ye Yang opened his eyes, a hint of satisfaction flashing in them.

The extraction results this time were even better than he had expected.

He flicked his fingertips, and then a wisp of Dao power transformed into an invisible spoon, carefully scooping the green halo from the spring water and suspending it above his palm.

The halo felt slightly cool to the touch, carrying the pure medicinal properties of the herb, without any impurities remaining.

Ye Yang focused his mind and could clearly perceive that although the spiritual energy contained within was weak, it was exceptionally concentrated.

If rare and precious medicinal materials required for the formula are added later, the efficacy will definitely increase rapidly.

He gently shook his palm, and the green aura flowed around it without showing any sign of dissipating.

"Not bad, at least the extraction and fusion steps are passable."

Ye Yang muttered to himself, raised his hand, took out a jade bottle, and slowly absorbed the green aura into it.
He tightened the stopper, carefully checked the bottle, and only after confirming everything was correct did he put the jade bottle into his pocket, placing it together with the animal hide scroll containing the pill formula. (End of Chapter)
