Upon seeing that the person transmitting through the wooden token was the elder guarding the Library Pavilion, Liu Daoyuan's mind immediately jured up the image of the elder, aged and nearing the end of his life.

  The elder was sidered one of the eion cultivators of the Azure Cloud Sect. To have lived this long urely due to his cautious nature. His cultivation talent was quite average, and even at the end of his life, he had only reached the early stage of Elemental Infant.

  However, he had diligently guarded the Library Pavilion for the Azure Cloud Sect for a hundred years. If he truly wao find a feng shui treasure nd to pass away, it could be relutly agreed upon.

  Thinking of this, Liu Daoyuan tapped the transmission wooden token without any particur emotion. Immediately, the elder's voice, excited to the point of incoherence, echoed within the cave dwelling.

  "Rep to the Sect Master, an outer disciple, Li Qinghai. He has obtaihe 'Azure Cloud Sword Teique'!"

  Upon hearing the st four words, Liu Daoyuan's body trembled violently. He even doubted his own hearing and tapped the transmission wooden token again, though this time his firembled slightly.

  "Rep to the Sect Master, an outer disciple, Li Qinghai. He has obtaihe 'Azure Cloud Sword Teique'!"

  Liu Daoyuan listened patiently and atteo the end, clearly hearing those four words: "Azure Cloud Sword Teique"!

  Li Qinghai had actually obtaihat teique! As the sect master, Liu Daoyuan naturally knew a thing or two about the ins of the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique." He had learned about it from the aexts of the Azure Cloud Sect.

  Acc to the a records of the Azure Cloud Sect, at the founding of the sect, myriad teiques flourished within the sect, but the sword teiques were particurly weak. Thus, the founding aor, Azure Cloud Aor, spey-one days, drawing orengths of a hundred schools, to prehend the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique"!

  Azure Cloud Aor once said that the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique" was a universal sword teique for the Azure Cloud Sect, accessible to all. However, everyone who had learhe "Azure Cloud Sword Teique" khat it was not just any universal sword teique but a prehensive one.

  The "Azure Cloud Sword Teique" prised six sword forms. The first five forms correspoo the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, ah, each suited for a single spiritual root cultivator. Dual spiritual root cultivators could learn two forms, and theoretically, a five-element spiritual root cultivator could learire "Azure Cloud Sword Teique"!

  However, cultivating as a five-element spiritual root cultivator was exceedingly difficult, and each of the first five sword forms was of the heavenly rank. Naturally, no cultivator had ever fully mastered the entire "Azure Cloud Sword Teique."

  Due to the uure and difficulty of cultivation of the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique," Azure Cloud Aor's direct disciples divided it into five heavenly rank manuals. Over time, subsequent disciples developed dozens, hundreds, even thousands of other sword teiques from these five heavenly rank manuals.

  In other words, all the sword teique manuals of the Azure Cloud Sect today inated from the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique"!

  Since Azure Cloud Aor's passing, leaving the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique" on the sed floor of the Library Pavilion for a fated person, tens of thousands of years had passed!

  The time was so long that very few cultivators iire Azure Cloud Seew the secret history of the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique." After all, no cultivator would idly browse the a records of the Azure Cloud Sect. Only idle elders like the elder and the sect masters of past geions would learn about the sect's history.

  As for the sixth sword form of the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique," even the aexts did not record it, and Liu Daoyuan naturally did not know.

  Hoo!!

  Liu Daoyuan exhaled deeply, recalling the records he had seen in the aexts, feeling deeply shocked. He never expected that Li Qinghai would obtairue sword teique of Azure Cloud Aor.

  To think that after reading the a records, he even personally went to the sed floor of the Library Pavilion to search for the "Azure Cloud Sword Teique." Even he couldn't find a single clue. It was hard to imagine how Li Qinghai found it.

  After a long time, Liu Daoyuan finally calmed his inner shock. He murmured softly to himself, "Li Qinghai, I'm very curious to see how far you grow!"

  ...

  At this moment, the tribution outside had already subsided. Outside Ye Fan's cave dwelling, many disciples had gathered. They were there to gratute Ye Fan on breaking through to Core Formation. Of course, there was an exception, and that was Ye Feng. He had a geter to report.

  He had been waiting for nearly two months, allowing that brat Li Qinghai to roam free for two months. Every day, thinking about losing faere servant disciple who hadn't even started cultivating made Ye Feng increasingly angry.

  Fortunately, the hard times were over, and his cousin Ye Fan was finally about to break through and emerge. Although he had successfully crossed the tribution, acc to normal circumstances, Ye Fan still o stabilize his realm, which would take a few more hours. But having waited for dozens of days, Ye Feng didn't mind waiting a few more hours.

  After several hours, the cave dwelling's door slowly opened. Many disciples eager to befriend Ye Fan began to offer their gratutions.

  "gratutions to Ye Fan for breaking through to Core Formation."

  "Wele back, Ye Fan. I have prepared a gift for you."

  "gratutions to Ye Fan on advang your cultivation. The position of Holy Son is within reach."

  ...

  Amidst the noisy voices, Ye Fan paid no attention. A faint voice emerged, overshadowing all the otion.

  "Ye Feng!"

  Hearing his cousin calling him, Ye Feng immediately stood tall, proudly gng at the other cultivators present. Then, Ye Feng stepped into the cave dwelling.

  As he approached Ye Fan, the previously proud expression on Ye Feng's face disappeared, repced by a look of grievance.

  Ye Fan g him and asked indifferently, "What's wrong?"

  "Sigh, I was humiliated by an outer disciple," Ye Feng sighed.

  "An outer disciple could humiliate you?" Ye Fan was quite curious.

  "Cousin, here's what happened..." Ye Feng reted the events, embellishing many parts. Especially the part where Li Qinghai insulted him, saying, "What is Ye Fan anyway?" He reyed it to Ye Faim.

  Ye Fan sneered, "Some people think that with a backer, they act recklessly and wlessly."

  Ye Feng was taken aback, thinking, is Cousin talking about Li Qinghai? Why does it feel like he's talking about me? Regardless of whom he was referring to, Li Qinghai must die.

  Ye Feng tio pin, "Cousin, that's true, but with Elder Jian Jiu around, we only let Li Qinghai humiliate us brothers without restraint."

  Ye Fan replied calmly, "What about Elder Jian Jiu? I am a true disciple from the first peak. Even if I kill Li Qinghai, if Elder Jian Jiu wants to trouble me, wouldn't the elder of the first peak protect me?"

  Ye Feng's eyes lit up, "Cousin, yoing to take a personally? With you stepping in, that Li Qinghai will surely be crushed effortlessly!"
