Chen Yu left Ningshan Prefecture and was transported to Tianhe Prefecture, returning to No Demon Academy.
A visit back was an opportunity to see his Master and inform the elder of their trio’s situation in the Sacred Land.
Additionally, Chen Yu hoped to acquire the remaining three levels of the "Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record."
What’s more, Chen Yu, now extrely wealthy, had collected several precious ores and hoped Master Shen would help him refine the Demon Flood Dragon Sword.
The instant Chen Yu returned, No Demon Academy was completely shaken.
"Chen Yu has returned."
"My god, is that really Chen Yu, one of the most outstanding talents of No Demon Academy?"
"I heard he has entered the mysterious and transcendent Kunyun Sacred Land and has beco a Kunyun Saint Guard..."
Countless students and even teachers watched Chen Yu from a distance, not daring to approach him for a chat.
After all, Chen Yu was not just an unparalleled genius, but also a Saint Guard of the Sacred Land.
The Sacred Land stood above the three ancient countries, and its mbers were few; naturally, the status of a Saint Guard was extraordinary.
"Chen Yu, you’re back?"
"Your strength now—it’s so profound that even I can’t see through it."
Only a few heads of branches dared to co forward and chat with Chen Yu with a smile.
In response, Chen Yu courteously replied to each.
Soon, a dark shadow hurried over, it was Vice President Yi Lantian.
"Vice President!"
The branch heads greeted him.
Those of a lower rank bowed respectfully.
"You’re back so soon."
Yi Lantian smiled.
He understood so of the rules of the Sacred Land.
Only as a Saint Guard allowed to undertake missions could one leave and have a chance to return to the academy, unless the mission given by the Sacred Land was related to No Demon Academy.
"I ca back to Yun Zhao Country for a mission and thought to visit."
Chen Yu answered with a smile.
With these words, many senior mbers shifted their eyes in envy.
A mission implied he was no longer simply a reserve mber—it seed Chen Yu had already beco a Copper Badge Holy Guard.
It had only been three years, yet Chen Yu had made such rapid progress, which was astonishingly fast.
But, considering the Sacred Land ruled the Kunyun Realm, why wouldn’t the cultivation effects there be remarkable?
Hum, boom!
Suddenly, from within the No Demon Tower of No Demon Academy, an ancient and weathered hum resounded, shaking the mind, as if a primordial demon was howling.
Then, a dazzling blue radiance burst from the top of the No Demon Tower, a blue afterimage streaking out of it.
Swoosh!
That afterimage swept past, stopping beside Chen Yu and others, materializing into an old man in a blue robe.
His complexion was pale, densely wrinkled, even carrying a hint of death, but his eyes were deep and bright, as if they could penetrate into one’s soul.
This person’s appearance emitted an extrely strong presence, unmatched by anyone.
This frightened many students and teachers, thinking soone had intruded into No Demon Academy.
"President." Yi Lantian called out.
Fortunate that the Vice President said so, otherwise, those unaware might have misspoken and offended this President.
"President!"
A few branch heads spoke, and soon everyone present joined in.
In their hearts, the status of the President of No Demon Academy was also extraordinary, only to be looked up to.
So younger teachers had never even seen the President before, not to ntion the students, all of whom stared at the President, full of curiosity and respect.
"I never thought that in my more than ten years at the academy, I would finally see the true face of the President of No Demon Academy today, all thanks to Chen Yu."
"The President, he hasn’t shown up for about fifteen years, right? If it weren’t for Chen Yu’s return, who knows when he would have revealed himself."
Inside No Demon Academy, many people sighed deeply.
"What a pity."
The President looked at Chen Yu and sighed.
A single stone raised a thousand layers of waves; these words made many curious.
But the next sentence from the President cleared their doubts.
"It’s a pity such a fine seedling entered the Sacred Land, otherwise I could have entrusted you with the position of the president," the President continued to remorse.
Once in the Sacred Land, becoming a Saint Guard, one must follow the dispatch of the Sacred Land, not acting on one’s own, and one can’t just leave.
"Thank you for your high regard, President."
Chen Yu bowed slightly, eting the President for the first ti.
"With your cultivation strength, you must already be a Copper Badge Holy Guard, aren’t you?" the President asked.
"So ti ago, I just beca a Silver Emblem Holy Guard," Chen Yu said with a bit of pride.
So senior mbers who knew the rules of the Sacred Land gasped, astonished.
It had only been three years, and Chen Yu had not only beco a Copper Badge Holy Guard but had also beco a Silver Emblem Holy Guard!
A Silver Emblem Holy Guard’s combat power equated to the late Guiyuan Realm—how extraordinary!
Even the Vice President and the President showed surprise, obviously not expecting this.
"Chen, is there anything you ca back for this ti?"
The President asked earnestly, even changing his mode of address.
Shaken by Chen Yu’s potential and talent, he hoped Chen Yu needed sothing so he could offer a favor.
"This junior has returned, hoping to obtain the remaining three levels of the ’Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’ cultivation techniques."
Since the other party had asked, Chen Yu simply stated his purpose.
He believed the Dean asked because he wanted to help Chen Yu.
If Chen Yu were to achieve sothing in the future, he might repay this kindness, repay No Demon Academy.
"Chen Yu is indeed cultivating the extrely difficult ’Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’," said one of the senior students, "but I heard that the remaining three levels require four million contribution points."
Four million contribution points were astronomical for them.
Even the top students could hardly earn a hundred thousand contribution points in a year.
"You are no longer a student of No Demon Academy and cannot earn contribution points, but No Demon Academy certainly will not obstruct your path of cultivation. As the Dean, I decree to give you the remaining three levels. No objections from anyone present, right?"
The Dean stated his decision with great magnanimity.
"The Dean is wise and his insights profound; how could we possibly object?"
Everyone present responded with laughter.
If anyone objected, they would offend not only Chen Yu but also the Dean. Anyone with a bit of sense wouldn’t object.
All the students and teachers present envied him deeply.
That was a Cultivation Technique worth four million contribution points, given away just like that!
"Thank you, Dean."
Chen Yu showed a look of gratitude.
Though he couldn’t earn contribution points, he could trade with Primordial Stones.
But four million contribution points, even if paid in Primordial Stones, would cost five to six hundred thousand—a price even a Sky Sea Realm expert would be reluctant to pay, and might not even be able to afford.
Having saved so much in Primordial Stones, Chen Yu naturally felt grateful to the other party.
Subsequently, Chen Yu headed to the Earth Demon Pavilion and copied down the content of the remaining three levels of the Cultivation Technique.
Thus, Chen Yu finally acquired the complete ’Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record’.
"Yu’er, how are your fellow disciples doing?"
Yi Lantian asked, showing concern for all his disciples.
"The second senior brother has beco a Copper Badge Holy Guard. When I left seclusion, he was on a mission. The fourth junior sister is doing well too, her cultivation has progressed rapidly. She ca out on a mission with this ti, but she has her tasks to attend to and couldn’t co to see you, Master."
Chen Yu reported their status.
"What? Yu Bu Yu hasn’t broken through to the Late Guiyuan Realm yet, she must still be a reserve mber, right? How could she also be sent on missions?"
Yi Lantian’s expression changed slightly.
He knew well that the missions from the Sacred Land were exceedingly dangerous. Given Yu Bu Yu’s experience, temperant, and strength, he couldn’t help but worry.
"The Sacred Land is short-staffed, hence even reserve mbers are being sent on missions now," answered Chen Yu.
Being in the Sacred Land ant they couldn’t avoid their duties. When a mission was assigned, it had to be carried out.
"You must take more care of your junior sister. She’s too naive and kind-hearted; undertaking missions from the Sacred Land is too dangerous for her," Yi Lantian advised Chen Yu.
"Definitely."
Chen Yu nodded.
After parting from Yi Lantian, Chen Yu went to the place of Artifact Refining.
This ti, all the Artifact Refiners were extrely courteous upon seeing Chen Yu.
Master Shen was promptly inford, and he ca out personally, a friendly smile on his face: "It’s only been three years; have you co to find for Artifact Refining again?"
After reaching the Late Guiyuan Realm, progress in cultivation slowed down, and for cultivators, one weapon could last them for decades, even longer.
And the weapon Master Shen had refined for Chen Yu last ti, the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, was already of a very high grade.
"Last ti, Master Shen, didn’t you say if I had rare ores, I could bring them to you for refinent?"
Chen Yu spoke very politely.
"Correct, show them to ." Master Shen decided to help Chen Yu with the refinent without any further discussion, then Chen Yu took out several ores from his Smoke-spitting Pearl.
Most of these were looted from the Fire Lion Sect.
A sect’s store surely contained so fine items.
"Not bad."
Master Shen took a look and felt confident.
Chen Yu knew that most of these ores were of the fire attribute, which didn’t match well with the Demon Flood Dragon Sword. So he added, "I don’t know if Master Shen has any rare ores, I’m willing to buy them with Primordial Stones."
Now in Chen Yu’s possession, the number of Primordial Stones reached over a million, thanks partly to the large capacity of his Smoke-spitting Pearl; otherwise, they wouldn’t even fit.
"You boy, targeting what I have now, eh?"
"I do have so, but the price to get them from is substantial," Master Shen said with a smile.
For an Artifact Refining Master, the ores they collected were highly valued.
Subsequently, Chen Yu bought several rare materials from Master Shen, impressing the Master with his assets.
Over the next few days, Chen Yu assisted Master Shen in Artifact Refining.
Originally, Master Shen was confident about refining the Demon Flood Dragon Sword to a fine quality, but now with several additional materials, his ambitions grew even greater, and he put forth his utmost efforts.
A month later.
Buzz!
A profound and dominant rumble roared within the refining room, causing all the other Spiritual Artifacts within the Artifact Refining area to tremble.
Chen Yu couldn’t wait and went in.
He saw Master Shen taking out a broad, heavy sword. Upon closer examination, it was covered in sinister, ancient patterns with spikes on both sides of the blade, exuding a brutal, dominating aura.
"This sword has reached the mid-grade top-tier level."
Master Shen wiped the sweat from his forehead, speaking with a trace of pride.
Mid-grade top-tier?
That’s quite the upgrade!
Of course, Chen Yu had invested almost all of his precious ores in the process, even spending five to six hundred thousand Primordial Stones buying materials from Master Shen.
Fortunately, it was all worth it. After Master Shen’s refinent, the Demon Flood Dragon Sword had ascended to the mid-grade top-tier level.
