538: Chapter 531 Change 538: Chapter 531 Change Chen Hai drew his gaze back and took a deep breath.
Once his heart was calm and his state was at its best, he picked up the “Secret Bone” and looked at it intently once again.
His whole being seed ethereal, as if space and ti were shifting.
The place where he stood was no longer his small courtyard but had transford into an endless starry sky.
Like a god high above, he looked down upon the earth.
In the void, seemingly endless streams of information flickered in and out of existence, filling the space.
This sensation was profoundly mysterious, utterly indescribable and unexplainable.
Sensing those endless streams of information, he was imrsed in a world both profound and wondrous.
He had no idea how much ti had passed when Chen Hai suddenly awoke from that trance.
“Does this ‘Secret Bone’ contain the inheritance of the ‘Heavenly chanism Secret Technique’?”
“I’m not strong enough to spy into Heaven’s Secret, I’m simply unqualified.”
“Having just ascended as a True Saint and stepped into this realm, can I, who received this inheritance, supposedly cultivate the Heavenly chanism Secret Technique?”
…
Delighted, Chen Hai muttered to himself.
Back on Blue Star, using his Divination Skill, he had succeeded in almost everything, most of it under his control.
Regrettably, after rging into this world where transcendental forces interspersed, his Divination Skill had essentially beco useless.
The Heavenly chanism Secret Technique, used for spying Heaven’s Secret, was almost an advanced version of the Divination Skill.
Even though Chen Hai had barely reached the threshold to cultivate this secret technique, as long as the involved people and matters were not far beyond his power, he should be able to divine quite a bit using this technique.
Unfortunately, having just received the inheritance of the Heavenly chanism Secret Technique, cultivating it would definitely take substantial ti.
Perhaps this kind of inheritance was unique.
The ‘Secret Bone’, bearing such a technique, had crumbled into dust and completely disappeared the mont he suddenly awoke from that trance.
Standing up, and walking out to the courtyard outside his room, Chen Hai looked up at the sky.
The bright sun still hung high, several hours away from nightfall.
It seed that falling into that trance and receiving the inheritance of the Heavenly chanism Secret Technique had not taken much ti.
“Bang bang bang…” Suddenly, a knocking sound arose.
Startled, Chen Hai walked to the entrance of the courtyard and opened the gate.
Standing at the door were a man and a woman.
The man was dressed in splendid clothes and had a proud deanor, appearing to be in his thirties.
The woman, much younger, wore a pale yellow long dress that beautifully adorned her, though she carried a sowhat charming allure.
“Younger Brother, what might your honorable surna be?
You must be a new Guest Elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect?”
“I am Min Yang, and this is Zi Die.
Just like you, we are Guest Elders of the Bloodthirsty Sect, residing near your courtyard.”
“I enjoy making friends most, and upon hearing that a newcor arrived at the Guest Elder Hall, I specifically ca to visit.”
…
With a cupped-fist salute, Min Yang greeted Chen Hai rrily.
Of course, while introducing himself, he also took the opportunity to introduce the woman beside him to Chen Hai.
“My surna is Chen, with the single na Hai.”
“Both of you must be senior mbers among the Guest Elders.
I have just arrived, ignorant and inexperienced; any offense, please be generously indulgent.”
With another fist salute, Chen Hai smiled and returned the courtesy.
Among the Guest Elders, although there were not many strong practitioners, since they approached as guests and showed no ill will, Chen Hai courteously reciprocated.
“Being fellow Guest Elders, we all sit in the sa boat.
If you need help, Younger Brother Chen, don’t hesitate to ask us.”
“If there is anything I can help with, I definitely won’t refuse.”
“This visit with Zi Die is rely to acquaint ourselves with you.”
“In the future, perhaps, we might collaborate closely.”
With a pat on his chest, Min Yang made these cheerful promises.
These Guest Elders earned cultivation resources by undertaking Sect missions.
So missions were impossible to complete alone and required cooperation.
The saying goes, the more friends, the more roads, and it was mutually beneficial for these Guest Elders to familiarize themselves with each other.
Of course, not all interactions among the Guest Elders were harmonious; deception, scheming, and rivalry were also common.
Min Yang and Zi Die, claiming to visit, also harbored intentions to probe.
During casual conversation with Chen Hai, they insinuated queries, clearly aiming to ascertain Chen Hai’s background.
Unfortunately for them, Chen Hai’s greatest backing was himself; with their ager skills, what could they discern?
After staying in Chen Hai’s courtyard for less than an hour, the two finally took their leave.
After the two, several more groups ca to visit.
For Chen Hai, the newly arrived Guest Elder, many in the Guest Elder Hall seed quite interested.
Either they wanted to forge a closer relationship with Chen Hai, or they wanted to gather so information about him, so they would know how to interact with this new Guest Elder in the future.
Finally, the day passed, and night fell.
Once the doors were shut, Chen Hai closed his doors to all visitors.
Past ten o’clock at night, the darkness deepened, and his figure, like a ghost, did not take the main gate but directly crossed over the courtyard wall, rging into the night.
During this ti, the security within the Bloodthirsty Sect had beco much stricter than before.
Along the way, teams of guards could occasionally be seen patrolling nearby.
Apart from the patrol teams, there were quite a few hidden and obvious watch posts along the route.
Unfortunately, these people were of limited strength; to Chen Hai, their presence was as nothing.
Using the mystique of the Nether Shadow Step, he had once stayed quietly near a team of guards, listening to their idle chat for over ten minutes.
Within just a few ters, they were utterly unaware of Chen Hai’s presence.
Where does Ye Qingqing live?
He was not sure.
But that did not matter, the Bloodthirsty Sect’s territory only covered an area of several tens of miles.
And within that area, there were only a few places where people lived.
Ye Qingqing was a Direct Disciple of Fang Qingshan; with a little attention, her residence could ultimately be found.
Chen Hai was not in a hurry; he had ti.
He treated the sect’s defenses as though they were non-existent, going wherever he wanted.
Not to ntion ordinary mbers of the Bloodthirsty Sect, even if he deliberately concealed himself, Elder Ming would not be able to detect his whereabouts.
…
In the core area of the Bloodthirsty Sect, Cuixia Peak, inside a cave mansion halfway up the mountain.
“Xiaocui, Zi, what’s the aning of this challenge letter?”
“That Cui Renming, didn’t he suffer miserably enough last ti he lost to ?”
“It’s been less than three months, and he’s issued another challenge to .
Has his scar healed and he’s forgotten the pain?”
A middle-aged beautiful woman sat at the head, holding the letter which she had only half-read.
Then, with a fierce slap, she smashed her hand down on the tea table beside her, shattering the valuable sandalwood table.
The two pretty maidservants in front of her, faces filled with fear, hurriedly spoke up to explain, “Senior Sister Qingqing, that Cui Renming explored so ruins recently and is said to have gained a fortunate opportunity, considerably increasing his strength.”
“He might have issued the challenge to you as he thinks among the ten Direct Disciples, you are at the lowest realm, and his chances of a successful challenge might be higher.”
“After all, if he can defeat you, he could take your place among the top ten Direct Disciples.”
…
The two maidens were trembling as they explained, uncertain whether their words would please the middle-aged beauty before them.
The middle-aged beauty was Ye Qingqing; despite not completely returning to her youthful state after stepping into the Fourth Realm and gaining fifty years of longevity, she did appear much younger.
Among the top ten Direct Disciples, she currently ranked last.
Indeed, her current position was snatched from the hands of Cui Renming.
Half a year ago, while exploring so ruins and due to so Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, she had clashed with Cui Renming.
It was just over treasure, but with her formidable strength, three of Cui Renming’s limbs were destroyed.
It was only because they were both from the Bloodthirsty Sect that Ye Qingqing showed so rcy and let him off.
Given this scenario, Cui Renming’s recovered strength and issuing a challenge to regain his honor was actually quite normal.
Xiaocui and Zi knew about these matters.
However, as maidservants, it was not their place to discuss these matters with Ye Qingqing.
Perhaps it was a side effect of cultivation, but since making a na for herself, Ye Qingqing was perceived by others as ruthlessly decisive and murderously inclined.
After entering the Storage Realm, every ti she ventured out to treasure hunt or seek opportunities, her enemies were almost always cleanly killed.
Only destroying three of Cui Renming’s limbs and not taking his life, in her view, was already an enormous favor, giving great face to the sect.
“Got so luck, improved his strength, and he wants to challenge again?”
“This Cui Renming, he really doesn’t know how to write the word ‘death’.”
“Does he really think that only he can improve and that I can’t advance?”
“If it weren’t for the sect’s strict prohibition on private fights and the inconvenience of causing a death even in arranged battles, once on the arena, he shouldn’t expect to leave alive.”
Ye Qingqing scoffed, a look of disdain on her face.
“Senior Sister Qingqing, are you saying…” Xiaocui and Zi looked at each other, joy appearing on their faces.
But before they could finish speaking, Ye Qingqing, sitting opposite them, froze.
“Go outside and guard the place.
Without my command, no one is allowed to enter this cave mansion.”
With an inexplicable smile, she forcibly interrupted Xiaocui and Zi, giving them orders.
“Yes, Senior Sister Qingqing…” Although sowhat baffled, the two maidservants obediently nodded and withdrew to the outside.
“My husband, is it you…” With genuine joy on her face, Ye Qingqing turned towards a spot inside the cave mansion and tentatively spoke, inquiring.
