Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 262 The Star Clock! The Extravagant Xie Family

finally.

Some people who originally had ulterior motives changed their minds after hearing Xie Fenghao's words.

They all put aside their thoughts and quieted down.

Under Xie Fenghao's arrangement,
A few people were left to guard the room to prevent anyone else from entering Ye Liuyun's room and disturbing him. As for the others, they naturally dispersed.

With Xie Fenghao's authority in the Xie family.

There's no need to worry about things being outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant.

Xie Fenghao only glanced at Ye Liuyun's room for a while, shook his head slightly, and then turned and left with the two elders.

It's a pity.

But ultimately, they are people who can take things on and let them go. Moreover, even if this bronze bell is a rare treasure, it is worth it to use it to win over a Grandmaster for the Xie family.

,,,

"That's clever!"

Meanwhile, inside the room, sensing the change in atmosphere outside, Ye Liuyun smiled and said something.

As early as when he was activating the Starfall Immortal Scripture, Ye Liuyun realized that this radiance would definitely attract the attention of some people, and that the silencing spell was not as omnipotent as it seemed.

In addition to perception-type talent attributes, Ye Liuyun not only has them, but has several.

Just from those changes in aura, Ye Liuyun was able to sense the movement of people outside.

So, he restrained himself and left directly.

Although I'm not worried about falling out with the Xie family, since they're so sensible, accepting their kindness isn't necessarily a bad thing.

When the outside air has mostly dissipated.

Ye Liuyun paid no attention to it and instead focused his attention on the bronze bell in front of him.

"Even if you like to eat it, you should at least tell me if you deserve this spiritual energy!"

In Ye Liuyun's view, the things cultivated from the Starfall Immortal Scripture are fundamentally different from those cultivated from other techniques.

The rest is still internal energy.

However, what is cultivated using the Starfall Immortal Scripture can be considered spiritual energy.

Even though Ye Liuyun hadn't stopped cultivating the Starfall Immortal Scripture during this time, he still hadn't accumulated much spiritual energy, even with so many talent attributes.

If it were someone else...

Even if they obtained the Starfall Immortal Scripture, they probably wouldn't have any clue how to cultivate it.

Although it is said that human will can overcome nature, sometimes, if you don't have talent, you just don't have talent, and no matter how hard you try, you still won't get any results.

In just a short while.

Ye Liuyun's spiritual energy had been mostly depleted. Even if it could be restored, it would take time. If he continued to "eat" it, he would have nothing left to feed him.

"Buzz!"

It seemed that he had sensed Ye Liuyun's suspicion.

The bronze bell responded again, its chimes resonating in Ye Liuyun's room.

next moment.

The action of absorbing spiritual energy suddenly stopped, and Ye Liuyun felt a lightness in his hand.

"Are you full?"

He withdrew his spiritual energy and curiously examined the bronze bell in front of him.

It seemed that nothing had changed, but Ye Liuyun had a strange feeling that there was some kind of connection between himself and the bronze bell, something he couldn't explain but definitely existed.

"This is?"

Ye Liuyun didn't quite understand this situation either.

I could only follow my instincts, and subconsciously raised my hand and placed it on the bronze bell.

next moment.

The bronze bell, which was originally almost touching the roof beam, suddenly began to shrink at a visible speed and floated in mid-air.

With a thought, the bronze bell merged directly into Ye Liuyun's palm and disappeared.

Instead, a small bronze bell tattoo appeared on Ye Liuyun's palm.

The tattoo flashed for a moment and then disappeared.

Similar to the previous Blood Blade, it seems that precious spiritual artifacts, once bound to a connection, can be directly absorbed into the body for easy access.

"I see!"

Along with the income from the bronze bell.

The next moment, a lot of information inexplicably appeared in Ye Liuyun's mind, all of it about the bronze bell.

'Star Clock!'

The bells toll, the stars fall, and all things perish.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun also realized that the bronze bell was originally called the Star Bell.

Although there are differences even among high-grade spiritual artifacts, the difference between some high-grade spiritual artifacts is even greater than the difference between high-grade and low-grade spiritual artifacts.

But it still falls into the category of high-grade spiritual artifacts.

But this Star Clock is completely different now.

"So, there's a whole new world beyond top-grade spiritual artifacts? This should be considered a celestial artifact!"

The Star Clock is both offensive and defensive.

That three-meter-tall size is not the largest size of the Star Clock. If there is enough spiritual energy, its size can be directly compared to the stars.

The defense is amazing.

According to Ye Liuyun's perception, this might not only be able to withstand the attacks of a Grandmaster, but even a terrestrial immortal might not be able to harm the Star Clock in the slightest.

As for attacks...

The simplest way is to enlarge the Star Clock and use it to smash people.

Its power is also considerable.

However, the true power of the Star Clock lies in the sound it produces, which is activated by spiritual energy.

However, this requires a vast amount of spiritual energy. With Ye Liuyun's current spiritual energy, at most he can only establish a connection with the Star Bell, absorb it into his body, and rudimentarily activate it.

To truly unleash the power of the Star Clock, even more spiritual energy is needed!

Think of this.

Ye Liuyun raised his hand, looked at the tattoo on his palm that had faded, and couldn't help but laugh.

"She can eat even more than I expected!"

did not expect.

The spiritual energy I've accumulated through so much cultivation is still not enough.

It seems so.

If one doesn't accumulate more talent attributes and simply cultivates, it would probably take at least ten years to accumulate that much spiritual energy.

Indeed, it seems so.

You still need to cheat!

Speaking of which, having a cheat code but not using it, and still foolishly practicing diligently, isn't that just plain stupid?

Think so.

As if responding to Ye Liuyun's emotions, the Star Clock reappeared on the palm of his hand, emitting a faint glow.

Coming to his senses, Ye Liuyun looked at the changes in his palm and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure you're 'full'!"

This is a celestial artifact, even more powerful than a spiritual artifact. Now that it's in my hands and I know how to use it, I certainly can't just leave it aside as a decoration.

With those words, the star clock tattoo on his hand even flashed, as if it were jumping for joy.

Ye Liuyun didn't pay much attention and put his hand down again.

"Speaking of which, if there are even higher immortal artifacts than spiritual artifacts, then are there even more powerful beings above terrestrial immortals?"

It is said throughout the world that being a terrestrial immortal is the strongest realm in the world.

But who can guarantee that there are no other realms above the terrestrial immortals?

The path of martial arts has no end.

It's just that I haven't reached that level yet.

"Beyond the terrestrial immortals, could it be that they directly shatter the void and ascend to heaven in broad daylight?"

Of course, these are all just Ye Liuyun's guesses at the moment.

Perhaps there really are immortals in the heavens. Although it's uncertain whether those immortals are good or bad, Ye Liuyun isn't worried at all. As long as there's a chance, he'll take them on, even if there really are immortals.

Ye Liuyun also wanted to try it.

What will this immortal's talent attribute taste like?

"That's more interesting!"

"Hahahaha!"

If everything remained unchanged, Ye Liuyun would find it boring.

The unknown can bring fear, but it can also drive progress.

Think of this.

Ye Liuyun clenched his fists, and his eyes became even brighter than before.

,,,

soon.

The next day, Ye Liuyun walked out of the room feeling refreshed.

Although it didn't break all night, there was no sign of fatigue on his face; in fact, he looked full of energy.

With Ye Liuyun's current level of cultivation, even if he didn't sleep for a year or two, he wouldn't feel tired. Moreover, last night, Ye Liuyun spent most of his time familiarizing himself with the Star Clock.

perhaps.

Who knows, this thing might have some amazing effects during the sacrificial ceremony.

Ah!
I really want to give Yan Fuhai a surprise.

"My lord!" Just then, Xie Ling'er's voice suddenly brought Ye Liuyun back to his senses.

When he turned around, he saw Xie Ling'er, who had already dressed up, waiting outside the room with her eyes wide open as she looked at Ye Liuyun.

"What happened last night?"

"Why do you ask?"

Ye Liuyun looked over curiously.

I can confirm that I didn't sense Xie Ling'er's presence around me last night, which means that Xie Ling'er was definitely resting in her room last night.

They probably didn't know about the strange light emanating from Ye Liuyun's room.

Xie Ling'er first shook her head, then began to explain.

"It's nothing much, it's just that when I came over just now, I saw several family members guarding outside the courtyard."

It shouldn't be surveillance.

Given Ye Liuyun's power, arranging for someone to guard him would only make things more likely to be misunderstood and backfire.

He must have discovered something, otherwise Xie Fenghao is definitely not an unwise person.

"You are smart!"

Although he already knew, Ye Liuyun still praised him without reservation.

"I just got a nice little treasure, and it made a little noise during the test!"

There was no strict cover-up; to put it simply, there was no concern that the other party might harm them.

and.

With Xie Ling'er's intelligence, she immediately understood what Ye Liuyun meant just by hearing him say that.

The treasure Ye Liuyun mentioned must be the bronze bell from yesterday. There's no other possibility. So, it really must be something special.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be worth Ye Liuyun calling it a treasure.

Although she was a little curious, Xie Ling'er was sensible enough not to ask too many questions. She just smiled and congratulated Ye Liuyun, and then took him to solve the problem of breakfast.

After lingering for a while, Ye Liuyun prepared to leave with Xie Ling'er.

Although there is still some time before the sacrificial ceremony, based on the time spent coming here, it is still possible to return after staying a few more days.

But Ye Liuyun still decided to go back early.

After all, he's a terrestrial deity, so he always needs to make some preparations.

"Are you leaving already? It would be wonderful if Young Master Ye could stay a few more days!"

Until Ye Liuyun was about to return to Daqian.

Xie Fenghao personally came out to see Ye Liuyun off and even arranged a carriage for him.

"I have nothing much to give you, but these two fine horses are ones I acquired not long ago. They can travel more than a thousand miles a day, so I'll give them to you, Young Master Ye!"

Seeing the two fine horses in front of the carriage, Ye Liuyun did not refuse.

Xie Fenghao is really willing to spend money.

They've been giving away money, magical artifacts, and now even a carriage! You know, for some people, a fine horse that can travel a thousand miles a day is more important than some precious magical artifacts!

"If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely bother you again, brother!"

Xie Fenghao is not a fool; it wouldn't hurt to make some friends with him.

Ye Liuyun waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Besides, Daqian is not far from the Xie family, and Ling'er is by my side. If anything happens to you, brother, it's only a few days' journey to send someone to tell me!"

Ye Liuyun's simple sentence.

But Xie Fenghao understood.

It was clearly a message to Xie Fenghao that if he ever encountered any trouble in the future, he could send someone to Daqian to find him.

This kind of guarantee is completely different from the ones I've made friends with before.

value!
It was totally worth it!

Xie Fenghao's mental state has clearly improved.

"Haha, since Young Master Ye says so, I hope you won't find me annoying in the future!"

There was no hypocritical indication that they didn't need it.

On the contrary, he readily agreed. Sometimes, being too hypocritical can be disgusting, while agreeing so readily makes people feel comfortable.

After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Ye Liuyun got into the carriage, and Xie Ling'er followed him in.

The carriage went further and further away.

Xie Fenghao gradually withdrew his gaze.

"So, what exactly is that bronze bell? Why couldn't we figure it out after studying it for so long, but Ye Liuyun figured it out in just one night?"

The Second Elder, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask a question while watching the carriage move further away.

Ye Liuyun didn't carry the bronze bell with him, nor was it in the original room. Clearly, it had been absorbed into his body.

The spiritual artifacts that can be absorbed into the body are all of a relatively precious type.

The Xie family had spent so much time researching it, not to mention the first day inside their bodies, they couldn't even let the bronze bell move on its own for a little while, but Ye Liuyun figured it out in just one night.

That's really frustrating!

"Alright! Let's leave the matter of the bronze bell here!"

Xie Fenghao was not surprised by the Second Elder's idea.

In fact, Xie Fenghao himself was also very curious, but he was able to restrain himself.

There's nothing to dwell on. It's all gone now. Instead of clinging to things we can't hold onto, we should think about how we can bring more benefits to the family.

"In any case, our Xie family's network has gained another Grandmaster, and a Grandmaster with a very promising future!"

Unlike those grandmasters whose futures are already predetermined.

Someone like Ye Liuyun.

It's clear that there's a much brighter future ahead, and thankfully the Xie family seized it.

The Second Elder nodded in agreement, no longer dwelling on the issue of the bronze bell, and instead began to talk about other things.

"This Ye Liuyun is still young and has some ideas about beautiful women. Why don't we take this opportunity to work harder? One little girl named Xie Ling'er is probably not enough!"

Compared to giving away magical artifacts, cultivation techniques, or elixirs.

However, such costs are practically negligible.

If this method could recruit a Grandmaster, there would probably be few forces in the world that could refuse it.

Upon hearing this, even the Third Elder nodded in agreement.

"The words may be a bit crude, but they do make sense!"

",,,"

Is this a compliment or an insult?

He glared at the Third Elder with annoyance. If this weren't serious business, he would have started cursing right away.

"Ok!"

Xie Fenghao clearly understood the reasoning behind this.

He nodded slightly.

"I'll take care of this!"

His eyes flickered, clearly indicating that he already had an idea.

The Second Elder and the Third Elder were both members of the Xie family and knew Xie Fenghao very well. Since they had said so, neither of them questioned it further.

He simply nodded in agreement.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you!"

"We trust you to handle things. If you encounter any problems, you can come to us!"

"We two old folks aren't at the point where we can't move yet!"

It was all for the prosperity of the family, so no one thought about slacking off.

"Ok!"

,,,

And on Ye Liuyun's side.

As expected of a fine horse capable of traveling over a thousand miles a day, in such a short time, the Xie family's mansion is already out of sight. At this speed, the return journey might be much faster than the journey there.

"The Xie family is really generous!"

Inside the carriage, looking at the unremarkable interior, Ye Liuyun suddenly laughed.

"what happened?"

Xie Ling'er was a little curious.

Those two horses were fine, but they were just horses, and the carriage was only a bit more spacious; they weren't anything special.

Seeing Xie Ling'er's curious gaze.

Ye Liuyun smiled and shook his head.

"This carriage is also a magical artifact!"

It's normal that Xie Ling'er couldn't tell, after all, she was just a Xiantian martial artist.

Even Ye Liuyun didn't notice it when he first sat down; he only realized it after walking a distance.

Although it looked like an ordinary carriage, Ye Liuyun still sensed the faint aura of a spiritual artifact within it.

"Spiritual weapon?"

Xie Ling'er looked surprised.

Clearly, they hadn't expected that the carriage would also be a magical artifact.

"Hmm, it should only be a low-grade spiritual weapon. Its defensive power, while not reaching the level of a grandmaster, should be able to withstand a blow from a Xiantian martial artist. And didn't you notice? The carriage hasn't been bumpy at all during this long journey!"

Even the best carriage will be bumpy if the road is uneven.

After all, in this day and age, horse-drawn carriages don't have any shock absorption systems, or if they do, they are extremely rudimentary.

But if it's a magical artifact, then it's a completely different story.
