In the courtyard, the mbers of the Faceless Sword Sect were quietly waiting for the contemplation period to end.
Most of the team mbers participating in the competition were staying inside a small side hall, snacking and sipping on beverages.
Bai He, on the other hand, was alone, watching the eldest senior brother who stood in the yard gazing up at the sky.
Huo Qingkong’s aura was subtly circulating and ascending, as if he had undergone a huge change.
"It seems like the eldest senior brother has had another revelation..." Bai He looked up at the white clouds in the sky, not understanding what was so fascinating about them.
He turned back to glance at the others; Zhao Yuan was healing from injuries, ditating with closed eyes.
Qiu Chen was flipping through a book of unknown content, occasionally letting out snickering laughs.
A few mbers of the large group were gathered around roasting beef, sizzling as the fat dripped down.
"There might be trouble on the return journey. Everyone, don’t panic when sothing happens. At critical monts, follow and Qingkong. The large group follows , and Qingying Group follows Qingkong. If we get separated, make your way back to the Sword Sect on your own."
Elder Yun Ling was slowly wiping a greenish-blue long sword in his hand, his voice deep.
"Yes." Everyone promptly responded.
Bai He also responded, but what he found strange was that the large group should be much stronger, right? Why would the large group follow the elder while the Qingying Group, which desperately needed care, follow the eldest senior brother?
Does this imply that... Elder Yun Ling himself did not have confidence in himself?
A frown ford in Bai He’s heart.
This competition seed very off, according to what the senior sister from the large group said.
In previous competitions, the organizers would arrange escort teams to take each sect back to their bases.
But this ti, the Yuheng Sect had made absolutely no such arrangents.
Watching Qiu Chen and Zhao Yuan, who had carelessly started bickering again, Bai He grew even more worried.
’I wonder... how Bai Lu is doing...?’

Li Chengyi was quietly looking at a stele in front of him.
Innurable whirlpool-like mysterious patterns appeared and vanished in front of him, and as he watched these patterns, he seed to grasp sothing, yet also as if he knew nothing.
Information was resonating at a rapid pace in his mind, but before a resonance could complete, new vibrations would co, disrupting the previous trend.
The powerful perception enhancent of the Snow Lotus was now acting as a catalyst for his enlightennt.
Li Chengyi’s progress with the Faceless Sword Technique and the Seven Spirit Holy Technique, in his mind, began to rapidly advance in this state.
Contained within those countless mysterious traces were things that could help him further both techniques.
Furthermore... the Origin Seal of the Phoenix King’s Tears, which was not yet fully condensed, was now rapidly growing under the wash of these ancient traces.
The Heavenly Jie Monunt itself was also striving to burn its lifespan, releasing white mists of unknown composition, amplifying Li Chengyi’s ability to comprehend at this mont.
One quarter of an hour passed...
Two quarters of an hour...
Three quarters of an hour.
Li Chengyi’s eyes suddenly widened, and streaks of colored light flashed rapidly within them.
A massive amount of ancient traces, containing countless complex and even chaotic ssages, displayed no pattern, many being the experiences and insights that the Heavenly Jie Monunt had perceived and collected on its own, so right and so wrong.
Yet even so, this monunt, with at least ten thousand years of history, still saved him at least several years of arduous effort.
Furthermore, most of the ancient traces were chaotic information of no help to the practice of techniques, which Li Chengyi now stored in his consciousness. It seed useless at the ti, but might provide aid unexpectedly so day.
A vast array of chaotic information was thoroughly categorized in his mind, condensing into a special black book.
The Black Book also cramd in all of Li Chengyi’s previous disorganized knowledge and information, forming a special to capable of resolving many phenona and matters.
At the sa ti.
Imprints began to surface on the front of Li Chengyi’s clothing.
The Faceless Sword Technique first broke through to the fourth layer.
An imprint, resembling a black long sword, coalesced at the bottom of all his imprints.
A brand new Imprint was successfully condensed.
But that wasn’t all...
With a substantial boost in perception, the Origin Seal of the Phoenix King’s Tears, close to the black sword Origin Seal, quickly finished condensing, transforming into a round, blazing seal with a phoenix spreading its wings.
And the aid of the Heavenly Jie Monunt didn’t stop there; a third Origin Seal soon erged.
The Faceless Sword Technique directly rushed into the fifth layer, condensing a second black sword Origin Seal.
At the sa ti, Li Chengyi’s body underwent a trendous transformation.
Essentially, Origin Seals and Imprints are the sa products, but Origin Seals are gentler, more systematic, less challenging. Imprints are more savage, with greater enhancents, but more scattered.
The greatest advantage of Origin Seals is the freedom to choose their direction within a certain range.
Having condensed two technique Origin Seals in one go, Li Chengyi felt a warm glow all over his body as if soaking in a vast hot spring.
And an enigmatic power lingered before him, waiting for him to choose its direction.
He instantly understood that this was a critical mont for the Faceless Sword Technique to decide what Origin Seal to condense.
As the most fundantal sword technique of the Sword Sect, the Faceless Sword Technique was imnsely significant.
The Origin Seal it ford could go in one of three directions.
First, increase the speed of the sword blade, making it burst faster, fly quicker, and strike swifter.
Second, increase the piercing sharpness of the sword blade after hitting the target. Consciousness Power could enhance the lethal cutting force of the blade.
Third, increase the number of swords that can be nurtured at the sa ti and improve the nurturing speed. Consciousness Power Sublimation allows for nurturing any sharp objects, eliminating the need for a Sword Nurturing Pouch—though having one naturally is better and faster.
