Chapter 891: Yun Yang’s Improvement

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At this very moment, countless entities of deific consciousness swirled above Swallow’s Hill, appearing to have materialized into one dense being. In such a situation, those two who were widely known as ‘Raiders Of All But God’ would have nowhere to hide the moment they showed themselves.

There were even thirty to forty Saint Level experts hiding in different locations.

Everybody was certain of one thing now — these two men were not average bandits!

The two of them could also be considered gold mines — mines of pure gold!

The numerous treasures they had seized from others would naturally fall into the possession of whoever that managed to capture them!

However, there had been no commotion at all recently, as if the duo called the ‘Raiders Of All But God’ had simply vanished…

Yet, nobody was too worried about it. They were high-level practitioners after all — they had the deepest sense of confidence and determination ingrained in their hearts.

This was especially true now that they were certain of an undeniable fact; now that they had stolen so many items, they surely had to find a way to sell them off. The moment they struck, their doings would all be uncovered!

Furthermore, if we were to follow the trail, we can get an even bigger cut.

The entire black market is already under our control, anyway.

Let us see where can you escape to.

Even if they went to the neighboring martial black market, there were no exceptions; everything was within their hands.

Although Yun Yang and Shi Wuchen were not completely aware of the plans the others had in store for them, they still had a vague idea of what it would be. Still, here they were, the two of them — striding into the black market with full vigor.

Shi Wuchen still did not know what kind of plan Yun Yang had in mind. He could only tag along, completely in the dark.

His thoughts churned incessantly, as he gave the matter some serious thought. Now that we have so many items in our possession, selling a portion of them would already be an incredibly tough task to achieve under such tight monitoring… Yet, here we are, wishfully thinking about selling off everything?

That would be simply impossible!

“Supreme Cloud, your powers seemed to have improved very quickly during this period of time!” Breaking out of his deep thoughts, Shi Wuchen suddenly recalled this query and quickly delivered a reminder. “Nonetheless, building a firm base is the priority when it comes to improving oneself in the path of cultivation. One can only venture further when he has a firm and stable set of fundamentals.”

Although the time spent with Yun Yang was limited, through Shi Wuchen’s better judgment that stemmed from a myriad of experiences, worldly exposure, and actual combat, how could he not tell that Yun Yang’s combat experience had undergone shocking levels of improvement, and at such a rapid speed?

Currently, Lord Supreme Cloud might be able to confidently face the practitioners of the Bound of Universe, practitioners of various cultivation levels and strength.

What was more frightening was that as the fights leveled up progressively, Yun Yang’s cultivation base had improved in a way that could be witnessed with the naked eye!

Although it seemed logical, it still did not make any sense!

How did this conflicting inference come to be? The reason was simple. Combat was the only way for a practitioner to attain further progress in the path of cultivation. No matter what it was, be it to strengthen their existing cultivation state, or to refine the mystical Qi within their bodies to a purer level, or to cultivate one’s state of mind — all of those must be nurtured and forged by combat to attain improvement in a more efficient manner.

That was why it was rather logical for Yun Yang to have a corresponding level of improvement in his cultivation in the midst of his participation in their recent episodes of continuous fighting!

However, Yun Yang seemed to be improving more than was usual. His margin of improvement was too high — the curve of the progress he was making was so steep to the point that Shi Wuchen found it unbelievable. Taking the progress of an average practitioner as an example, it was already an incredibly tough feat for a normal practitioner to improve by one or two levels after many rounds of actual combat. Those blessed with innate talents could advance much further, but advancing to a state of minor accomplishment would prove to be almost their limit. At most, by accumulating their default potential, they could go beyond their limits and even reach the peak of a new accomplishment, but it would be extremely tough to make so many breakthroughs continuously!

Yet, Yun Yang had shattered this widely accepted fact. He had made so many breakthroughs continuously — and that, of course, was not logical at all. It was inexplicable.

From how Shi Wuchen saw it, although Yun Yang was blessed with innate talents, it could not possibly justify the levels of massive improvement he was undergoing. He suspected that Yun Yang might be practicing some art form that only prioritized progress in cultivation without regard for the fundamentals. He would simply be neglecting his basics and choosing to focus on the unnecessary details, and that was an utterly stupid mistake to make!

Shi Wuchen felt that it was his responsibility to bring this matter up.

He had to offer his advice!

“I understand. I’ll take note of this.” Yun Yang was well aware of what Shi Wuchen’s well-intended advice was addressing, but he seemed unperturbed by it.

If a ten-thousand-feet building was extruded from the ground without proper foundation and only had a taste for rapid development, how could it be expected to last for long?

However, the recent fights had significantly given Yun Yang a special and unusual feeling than the ones in the past. That, perhaps, was a feeling of fighting and killing while having his life on the line — an immense pressure that weighed down on him every day of being in an environment where he was merely a call away from death.

An environment that would place him directly before spilled blood, an environment that constantly placed him in front of annihilation!

By submerging oneself continuously in such a high-pressure environment, that would make any practitioner who could live through the immense pressure improve their cultivation base like crazy, as if they had opened a valve!

He was aware that his circumstances were different from others, but… Shi Wuchen was still in the dark. Furthermore, no matter how good his fundamentals were, he should probably pay some mind to it.

Shi Wuchen himself could greatly empathize with this feeling, for it was not the first time for him — whose cultivation state had already attained Saint Level — to have this sort of experience. Therefore, he advised Yun Yang based on his outlook as a person sharing a similar experience.

Based on Shi Wuchen’s knowledge, it might be quick to attain this level of progress, but at certain intervals, one would have to enter a state of inactivity for a few days to buffer any repercussions and recuperate. Only through this process could the battle experiences accumulated be broken down bit by bit and converge in the body as one.

If this could not be done, one would be left reeling from a regrettable feeling of a flawed outcome. Haste would not bring success.

Yun Yang had been fighting continuously for more than a month already. Only now did he pause to rest and recalibrate.

To Shi Wuchen, this duration was far too long, and there was a huge possibility that some unseen misfortune would occur from that…

“I could tell that your saber form was undergoing slight transformations.” Shi Wuchen recalled slowly, shining a light across all his memories in order to spot every bit of difference on Yun Yang; ever since he joined the sect, he and Yun Yang had become a duo of shared interests.

The better Yun Yang is, the better I will become!

The stronger, more perfect and further Yun Yang could venture, Shi Wuchen would feel happier.

This indicated that the two of them can survive longer in this perilous martial world. Having an acquaintance to venture within the path of cultivation is always a rare, wonderful thing.

“Yes. After fighting you the other day, I was aware of this problem — a problem that I’ve never encountered or gotten involved in before my ascension.”

Yun Yang moved forward with light and quick steps. “The fact that you’ve become a swordsman, and have become who you are today after wandering around on your own — I think it’s because, besides your sword, you have nothing else, don’t you?”

Shi Wuchen was surprised. “You can tell?”

“It was precisely this matter that I found very similar to myself, causing me to think of this certain problem that closely involves me, which is the matter of the saber. My saber, actually — and how can I improve further.”

“In the realm where I’ve ascended from, my power triumphs over anything across the realm, unrivaled and unparallel, causing me to be contented within my own bubble and making me think that my saber’s Dao had reached its limit, without the room for improvement in this short time. However, I’ve discovered recently that I simply have a very limited point of view, as my take of the world was limited to the extent of my shallow imagination. After fighting you, I’ve decided to make my own destiny!” Yun Yang cried out enthusiastically.

“Actually…”

“Don’t say it.” Yun Yang smiled. “I really intended to make my own destiny here, and I have no intention on emulating someone else’s ways to do so.”
