If he learned that sword technique, he would be able to synthesize an extremely powerful cultivation technique.

It would be strong enough to be compared to the Overpowering Saber.

Ye Xiao accepted the book.

“How much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you.”

He said indifferently.

Gu Hai glared at him unhappily,

“Are you kidding me? What kind of person do you take me for?”

Ye Xiao smiled and stopped discussing the matter of money.

At that moment, Huan Liuli climbed up from below and jumped onto the table. She curled up not far away from Ye Xiao and fell asleep.

Gu Hai was stunned for a moment, then immediately said,

“Old Ye, did you raise this?”

Ye Xiao nodded.

“Since when did you start raising star pets? Oh, but you don’t have to tell me. If you haven’t activated your divine soul yet, it’s not bad to cultivate spiritual cultivation techniques and become a beastmaster.

“Not only can a star beast assist in battle, but it can also give a certain level of cultivation back to the beastmaster.

“However, raising this thing costs a lot too. It’s hard to achieve anything without spending money.”

“I’m just raising it for fun.”

“Alright, but if you really want to become a beastmaster, let me know if you’re short on money.

“I have an old classmate who deals with star beasts. He has all kinds of good star beasts, and he can even get his hands on a lesser tiger-class star beast.

“I’ll help you negotiate the price. Around 100,000 yuan should be enough to buy a lesser tiger-class star beast baby. If you buy it from others, it’s impossible to get it without spending at least 120,000 to 130,000 yuan.”

“Uh…There’s no need for that for the time being. I’ll raise this one and try it out first.”

Putting aside the fact that he did not want to be a beastmaster at all, the class of star beasts was divided into three classes.

Dragon, Tiger, Wolf!

The Phantom Cat’s class was definitely above dragon class. Why would he spend money to buy a lesser tiger-class star beast baby that was not even considered a tiger class?

Of course, the most important takeaway was that a lesser tiger-class star beast baby actually costs 100,000!

That is not something he would choose to spend that much money on.

Gu Hai nodded.

“Alright, let me know if there’s a need. I’ll be leaving first. I’m afraid that the new kid won’t be able to handle it for long without me.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

After Gu Hai left, Ye Xiao immediately started reading the book.

Frankly speaking, he really did not understand that ancient book because the words it used were all ancient.

However, there was one good thing about his divine soul’s Golden Book. As long as he read the words once, he would be able to record the cultivation technique and start cultivating. He did not really need to understand every word.

After he finished recording the entire cultivation technique, he let his soul cultivate on its own while Ye Xiao continued to search for spiritual cultivation techniques.

The spiritual cultivation techniques he read at noon today allowed Ye Xiao to see a new perspective.

The spiritual cultivation technique was very strong. It was so strong that it made one’s hair stand on end. Especially after being able to perfectly control one’s spiritual energy and circulate it properly, it could even erupt with a power that was comparable to the aura.

If one were to say that it was impossible for one’s cultivation to jump to the rank of a divine grandmaster in one go.

Then increasing one’s cultivation through various means was also one of the ways to increase one’s strength in disguise.

However, as there were very few spiritual techniques, he did not manage to find many in the area he managed.

Ding!

When the clock chimed after work, Ye Xiao closed the book and stretched.

The spiritual art basic cultivation techniques in his mind had only increased to three.

He was probably still far from synthesizing them.

“Looks like I still have to think of a way to go to other areas to take a look.”

Huan Liuli could not help but say,

“Why don’t you come over at night? There won’t be anyone here at night. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to read whichever book you want, right?”

Ye Xiao glanced at her.

“Do you eat when you poop?”

Huan Liu Li shook her head.

“Of course not. I’m not a lunatic.”

“Then why do you work when you should be resting?”

“…”

She realized that she really could not keep up with Ye Xiao’s pace.

If it were her, she would definitely read during the day and read at night. As long as it could strengthen her strength, what was the point of sleeping?

She would only sleep if there was something wrong with her brain.

In reality, although Ye Xiao wanted to become stronger, he would not put all his attention on cultivation.

In his previous life, due to his illness, he did not manage to experience life properly. In his current life, he only wanted to live a stable, more complete, and more fulfilling life.

If he focused on cultivation every minute and every second, what was the difference between that and lying on a hospital bed in his previous life?

Life was unpredictable. No matter how strong his cultivation was, there would always be someone better than him. There would always be someone stronger than him.

If he focused on his cultivation every day and did not experience the life that he should be experiencing, what was the point of his cultivation no matter how strong he was if he met a prodigy who could kill him in an instant?

Therefore, he will just try his best in cultivating what he can.

After eating dinner, the Golden Book had already cultivated the last page of the basic sword technique to perfection.

The paper that recorded the nine basic sword techniques began to slowly emit a golden light.

It could be synthesized!

Ye Xiao returned to the rented house and locked himself in a tightly shut room一beginning to synthesize the sword techniques.

Just as he had thought, the light that was emitted from the surface of his body was firmly wrapped by the room, not releasing a single trace of light.

As he evolved the sword technique, the entire room was filled with sword aura, continuously circling and humming.

The sword technique formed nine large words on his divine soul’s Golden Book.

Pull!

Chop!

Slash!

Slice!

Cleave!

Stab!

Swing!

Spin!

Retract!

From pulling out the sword to retracting the sword, it was completed in one go!

All the sword might, momentum, moves… All of them began to slowly blend together to form a single sword!

Huan Liuli was arranged to guard the main door in the courtyard. She said indignantly,

“I’m a cat, not a guard dog!”

Unfortunately, Ye Xiao could not hear her complaints.

The night passed very quickly. When Ye Xiao woke up the next morning, the nine basic sword techniques had completely synthesized into one!

“It’s done!”

He exhaled a mouthful of air.

Heaven-cleaving Sword!

Success!

The Heaven-cleaving Sword was similar to the Overpowering Saber. One sword contained the all-encompassing nature of sword techniques.

That was the supreme sword intent. The evolution within it was multifarious. It was difficult for anyone to guess the changes within it. Hence, it was difficult to block the power within it.

As long as one’s cultivation was sufficient, that sword could even slash the heavens!

Ye Xiao’s cultivation had also increased quite a bit because of that. He was not at Xiantian third grade, but he was already more than halfway there.

Even so, with the Overpowering Saber, the Heaven-cleaving Sword, and the Violet Sea of Stars which were two top-tier physical cultivation techniques, and one top-tier mental cultivation technique, Ye Xiao’s battle strength was enough to suppress all kinds of enemies. He could be considered one of the most outstanding martial artists!
