When he arrived, he saw that Ming Yue was already present here. He greeted her and both waited for Huan Caiyi.
She again arrived at exact ti.
"Today, I will use strength of Core Formation realm. Be ready."
She didn’t wasted any ti and took her wooden sword.
Jiang Hao again beco focused, he had feeling that he might be able to dodge at least first attack and as expected when Huan Caiyi moved she wasn’t fast at all compared to yesterday.
Infact he can easily see her, and after seeing her movent, he knew that first target was him.
She arrived in front of him, raised her sword and slashed at his head, the movent of sword was still sowhat fast but easily discernible, he side stepped a little when sword was about to land on his head and as expected he dodged it.
But before he can relax the sword that missed his head has reached level of his chest and without any change of its speed it changed its direction quite sharply towards him.
He was still in the movent phase and hadn’t even properly balanced after side stepping so it was impossible for him to dodge again.
The result was obvious, it hit on his right arm.
He was stunned, it was again sothing out of his expectations and the result was again sa, he wasn’t able to dodge it.
That sharp turn wasn’t sothing easy to pull, if person at Core Formation realm attacked with their full strength, then executing that sharp turn without losing strength and speed is impossible.
But he have to rember that Huan Caiyi wasn’t normal Core Formation realm cultivator, she is just using the strength of that level. It was perfectly normal for her to have extre control over her sword as she was particularly a sword cultivator.
After this he didn’t give up and tried to dodge at every attack, but he still wasn’t able to do so. Even if he manage to evade the attack for two tis sohow with random prediction, then there will be a third sharp turn which would definitely hit him.
This didn’t disappointed him as his prediction of dodging two moves was becoming quite higher.
Today’s attacks were quite weaker compared to yesterday so although they hurt like hell, they weren’t leaving deep wounds on their bodies, so it didn’t affected their movents much and they were able to try dodging for longer ti.
But eventually the attacks piled over their whole body, and their movents beco slower, Ming Yue was first to give up and stood on her place quietly enduring the attacks while gritting her teeth.
Jiang Hao still was fine and continued for longer ti before his body gave up first.
Huan Caiyi doesn’t stopped and beated them far longer than yesterday, making sure their wounds beco equal to what they had been yesterday.
When she made sure that they reached sa condition she stopped.
"That’s it for today, let’s et tomorrow again."
She vanished as usual.
Ming Yue again laid down, but today she was calm and didn’t rattled about anything. It was already past noon unlike yesterday.
So wounds on Ming Yue won’t heal till the night, he can predict this from her yesterday’s healing ti she had taken.
Infact it would better to heal her wounds in the cave abode as the spirit density is quite high there. Even with restriction their speed will be faster.
But since she can’t move, he doesn’t suggest this to her. He started actively healing himself.
And when evening ca he was healed and as expected Ming Yue was still laying down on her back.
He went there, and when she sensed his presence she opened her eyes.
"Junior brother you shouldn’t have any important thing to do now, right?"
"I do senior sister actually."
"Hm, what is it junior brother?"
"To accompany you senior sister, you doesn’t look in good shape, how can anything be more important than watching over you right now?"
"Junior brother, you really know how to talk."
She said with smile on her face.
Jiang Hao sat down and started comprehending Foundation Establishnt section of his technique, once he mastered this section, it will beco quite easier to master the Nirvana’s Veil skill as it was related to this section.
Eventually night fell and finally Ming Yue stood up, and they went back to their cave abode.
This routine continued, in the morning they are thoroughly beaten up and at night they went back to their cave abode.
Eventually 1 month passed and day when sect competition began ca.
Jiang Hao and Ming Yue both stood at the edge of the cliff and watched the valley between the cliffs.
There was a quite big stone area was erected, it was present before, but was covered in veil so Jiang Hao had never seen it.
This arena was really quite big, after all real fight is between Soul Sea realm disciples and it was made keeping that in mind.
Today they won’t be getting beaten as Huan Caiyi had said him to participate in the sect competition. He doesn’t know why though, maybe she thought he doesn’t have resources left?
He was able to beat anyone in Foundation Establishnt realm even before reaching mid stage. Only person who he still can’t beat is Ming Yue who also had reached late stage.
But she had just told Huan Caiyi that she won’t be participating as she will be restricted in the tournant anyway.
So today, only he was going to participate, although it will be boring for him as there won’t be anyone who could challenge him, he wasn’t disheartened because of it.
He will be able to see fight between Core Formation and Soul Sea realm cultivators, which will increase his understanding toward higher realms.
Ming Yue was also quite happy as she was given a day off from beating.
Even in one month they haven’t made a noticeable progress, this just shows how tough is to develop battle sense.
According to Huan Caiyi they will take upto 1 year before they really developed it. No wonder it wasn’t sothing everyone possessed, only those who had survived multiple deadly battles can acquire it and how many can even survive that? Luck also play important role in this.
Training it unnaturally for ordinary cultivators is almost impossible as even with top tier physique they will take upto year. So, it is foolish dream for others, who can’t heal those injuries overnight to continue again tommorow
In one month he was able to predict attacks clearly but it was still not enough to dodge them completely, Elder Huan Caiyi make sure of it.
"Let’s go junior brother, you have to register your na on the list of participants."
"Are you coming too senior sister?"
He couldn’t help but ask, after all she doesn’t like appearing in front of everyone. Also, he had ring for protection, so it won’t be problem if he was attacked by a sneak attack but what about her?
"Why can’t I co junior brother, who knows how long we will stay in this sect, I should also step out a little and enjoy while I can.
Don’t worry about dangers junior brother, I heard that grand elders themselves are watching over this competition.
Usually they don’t co out in previous years competition but this ti they have decided to do so, and no one stronger than them is present in the sect, so no one can hurt us in their watch junior brother."
Jiang Hao nodded and moved towards path which descended from peak to the bottom of Alchemy peak with her.
They descended at walking pace, enjoying the scenery around the peak.
Gradually they reached the core area of the peak and eventually lot of disciples found about them. So of the disciples greeted them enthusiastically as both of them are most famous disciples of the sect.While there were lot of the disciples who were just envious of Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao doesn’t care for these disciples troubling him or not as he was already worried about so unseen dangers from central region which can wipe out Mountain Sword sect in blink of eye.
And now that Ming Yue is with him right, he doubted anyone would even co to confront him in front of her.
Core area might be the biggest area of this peak. Even the elders, whom he had never t before live here.
It was quite lively, there were quite lot stalls which were selling pills and elixirs and he can see disciples of almost all peaks present here.
He sighed in his heart, this was what a sect should look like, and this is first ti he was seeing it, after arriving in Mountain Sword sect.
He always wanted to live free and unrestrained but the mont he arrived here, he was restricted of all the freedom and now it applied to whole world for him. He can’t roam freely in this world unless he disguised himself and forced to live in disguise is also a restriction for him.
He doesn’t bla anyone for this, as it was his own fault for being weak. In cultivation world, death is a most common occurrence.
Cultivators die for various reasons, most of them die due to greed, so die when they fail their breakthroughs, so die unconditionally as soone stronger than them just wants to kill them for fun.
These are just common reasons, there exists various other reasons but these all make death a very common occurrence in cultivation world.
Death rate of cultivators might exceed even mortals who live only 100 years.
