Three days had passed. All the time, Yuan Fen was diligently practicing to maintain the tool stone that was the object of training. The goal was to keep the stone in the air for at least 10 minutes.
With his determination and effort, the results Yuan Fen achieved were satisfactory. Finally, he could leisurely control the stone to stay in the air for 25 minutes, with the distance increasing to 25 meters.
This achievement made Yuan Fen's heart full of joy. Impatiently, he waited for Yi Zan's arrival so that he could boast of his new skill.
When the sun was at its peak, Yi Zan signaled his presence at Yuan Fen's hut. Her signature hum accompanied her arrival, singing loudly.
"Hmm! Has big brother progressed in his Spiritual Energy training according to my teachings?" The nine-year-old girl's voice sounded rather dry and shrill, befitting her young age. However, despite this, her voice still had a cheerful tone.
"Let's see your progress." Yuan Fen immediately demonstrated her new skills. Quickly, he demonstrated his Spiritual Energy training ability. The stone floated 25 meters away and was able to stay in the air for 25 minutes.
Although Yi Zan did not show a surprised expression, Yuan Fen's success was still encouraging.
"Alright, let's move on to the next step of becoming a Symbol Master. Are you ready, big brother?" Yi Zan said excitedly, his hand quickly took out a piece of talisman paper, a talisman brush, and a brush for writing talismans.
"This level 1 talisman serves to create a thick fog effect. Pay attention to the formula and form of writing this talisman. Do not forget to brush the talisman paper with the talisman brush and include any Spiritual Energy you have," Yi Zan instructed.
The process of creating the talisman proved to be bittersweet, where reality showed that creating such a talisman was not easy.
All the writing had to use Spiritual Energy, and the way of brushing and applying the writing with the brush also required Spiritual Energy.
Yi Zan, not wanting to disturb Yuan Fen's concentration, gave the condition that he would return tomorrow. Yuan Fen just nodded, completely focused on making his first talisman. 6 hours later, this exercise was completed

Tomorrow is the day.
Yuan Fen rushed to the sect library for the task of cleaning the courtyard.
"You're late today, Fen Er," greeted the man on the first floor of the library, Bao An. This middle-aged man treated Yuan Fen like family, which was why he called him Fen Er.
"Sorry, Elder Bao An. I woke up late today because I was trying to practice Cultivation," Yuan Fen explained while bowing his head. He really appreciated this man, who was not only a library guard but also an elder with Spirit Condensation Realm Cultivation level 8.
Elder Bao An said. "Fen er, I hope you will participate in the recruitment of Cloud Sword Sect disciples in the coming month. I see that you've left your ordinary life and become a Mortal Realm rank cultivator. Regardless of the Mortal rank, I hope you'll be diligent in your cultivation so as to be worthy of participating in the recruitment," Bao An said.
"Here's a gift for you," Bao An continued as he held out something, a beautiful yellowish-colored dried grass.
"This is Yellow Phylanthus grass. Although it looks simple, don't underestimate it. Its market value is as high as 10 energy stones. If you can get Imperata Grass and Light Cyperus Grass as well, these three after being brewed overnight will become a very beneficial liquid medicine to boost your cultivation," Bao An explained.
It should be noted here that a common means of payment among cultivators is energy stones. Using energy stones makes someone who is not a cultivator look great and rich. The use of gold and silver coins is not highly regarded. Energy stones were more valued in the world of cultivators.
Yuan Fen saluted and politely accepted the gift from Elder Bao An. The polite attitude and respect for others made Bao An sympathetic to Yuan Fen. The courage and willingness to lend a helping hand are also considerations for Bao An.
In the past, when senior worker disciples tried to bully Yuan Fen, Bao An always intervened to protect the boy. This caused jealousy among other workers' disciples because Yuan Fen had an unofficial patron in Bao An.
Carefully, Yuan Fen kept the Yellow Phylanthus grass in his bag hidden under his uniform. He secretly planned to look for the other two grasses, Imperata Grass and Light Cyperus Grass, to improve his cultivation level in the next month.
After finishing the work and tidying up the library area, Yuan Fen bid farewell to Bao An.
"Congratulations on practicing cultivation diligently, Fen Er. I hope you pass the recruitment process. At that time, I will teach you a Mortal-level Sword Technique, which is the best in this library and certainly according to your cultivation journey," Bao An said to Yuan Fen.

Happily, Yuan Fen ran towards his hut in the working disciple settlement. However, before he opened the door of the hut, Yi Zan suddenly appeared beside him.
"I've been waiting for you for an hour, brother worker. Why did it take you so long to come back from the library today?" Yi Zan complained spontaneously.
"Ah... you always appear suddenly, surprising me every time," Yuan Fen grumbled.
Yi Zan laughed happily at Yuan Fen's grumble. He was happy to see the working brother frowning.
"Never mind, brother worker, don't frown. How is your work in the tier 1 talisman? Have you finished the low-level talisman? Huff, it's just a low-level talisman, but it took more than a day to complete," Yi Zan mocked.
"It will take a while to complete this talisman," Yuan Fen replied as he thrust out the rank 1 smog talisman.
Yi Zan was speechless as he looked at the talisman handed over by Yuan Fen. It was a Quasi Perfect class talisman. Although Yi Zan himself had learned to make talismans according to the direction of his grandfather, Master Yi Zhunting, who was the master of the Symbol sect, he was only able to make middle-rank Venti talismans.
Yi Zan tried to remain calm and pretended as if the talisman was an ordinary rank. Then, he said, "Very good, brother worker. You managed to make the talisman very well. These are five talisman recipes, each for healing, 50-meter teleportation, Thunder, nightmare, and 15% battle buff. I believe you can solve everything."
"These functions must be useful. On weekends, we can go to the city of Morning Star City and sell these talismans in the Treasure House. I'm curious to see what price they will offer for the Class 2 talisman we made," Yi Zan said with a mischievous smile.
The Cloud Sword Sect provides vacation leave every two weeks to all students and parents. They could visit Morning Star City to rest or shop, as the town was only 100 km away from Cloud Sword Sect.
"Now, let me teach you the Illusion Technique," Yi Zan said to Yuan Fen who looked surprised by the name of this technique, the Illusion Technique. In his heart he wondered. What does the Illusion Technique look like? Is it useful in combat? Yan Fen was puzzled, he preferred martial arts. But he couldn't help but follow the little girl's wishes. Will this illusion technique help him in the future?

Cultivating in the Dao of mental energy to form illusions is the same as cultivating battle Qi Energy. Our mental energy must be strong and we must always practice to become stronger, even to create illusions and other actions. There are several ranks in mental energy called master symbols, namely:Seal Master , The Earth Master Symbol, The Master Symbol of Heaven consists of Heaven, The Master Symbol of Immortality, The Divine Master Symbol,"Yi Zan explained, "Just by achieving Seal 1 Symbol Master, one has been able to cultivate illusions and manipulate circumstances, so that in dangerous situations, one can evade as long as the enemy one is facing does not have a higher cultivation level.""That's why a symbol master is so respected," Yi Zan added."You still remember what I said, that only 1 in 100,000 people have the ability to cultivate mental energy. Even if one has mental energy, without the guidance of a master as a teacher, that ability is useless. Even if the person insist

The beautiful view from the air while riding the winged horse made Yuan Fen feel very excited. This new experience became precious to this simple and orphaned young man.

She stopped at stalls selling snacks and confectionery, then pulled Yuan Fen's hand to enter a women's clothing store.Unfortunately, as a Cloud Sword Sect disciple, Yuan Fen had to wear the uniform of the sect's robes, and could not adorn herself with any other clothing or accessories. Even so, Yi Zan still couldn't resist buying some female accessories, such as earrings, hair clips, rouge, lipstick, and powder.Yuan Fen was astonished at Yi Zan's enthusiasm for various accessories and makeup tools.

The same thing would be done if it were me."The second level of Noble Dish Restaurant, which is crowded with followers of many sects, was filled with a low cacophony of whispering voices."Please stop!" Interrupting, Ruan Ceng leaped like a bird to * his bouncer. Following that, he moved slightly backward to avoid getting too close to Yi Zan and Yuan Fen. Presumably from being shocked by an earlier explosion that resulted in his injuries, the guard appeared nearly asleep. But the majority of people in the room believed he would pass out from humiliation."

Admiration engulfed the two as soon as they entered the Hall of Treasures. Many medical elements draw interest, including plants, roots, medicines, talismans, and more. For the purpose of fighting and improving cultivation, these objects were vital to growers. In addition, there are numerous other medicinal plants and tablets. There were a lot of excited people in the Treasure Hall's ground level exhibition hall.Abruptly, a voice welcomed them from a 20-year-old girl with a charming face and rather formfitting attire.Dear ladies and gentlemen, what herbs or mustika are you in need of? "Ayin is here to assist," the girl remarked as she walked over to Yi Zan and Yuan Fen.Yi Zan muttered to Yuan Fen, "Hmm, this guardian girl's cultivation has even reached Mortal Realm 5."It's incredible, Morning Star City's Treasure Hall.

Swordbound Chronicles The Auction Begins.
On the 2nd floor, a 40-year-old man appeared wearing fancy clothes. He was Manager Luo of the Hall of Treasures. He arrived with an elder - Master Ye, the Symbol Master of the Hall of Treasures. Master Ye's job was to appraise amulets, inscriptions, or spirit objects that used symbols. Master Ye's presence will verify all objects related to the Symbol Master.Yuan Fen and Yi Zan greeted Manager Luo and Master Ye while Ayin introduced the two children to them."May I see what items you will sell, young man?" Manager Luo said to Yuan Fen and Yi Zan.Without hesitation, Yuan Fen showed the three types of talismans he had made, all according to the Techniques taught by Yi Zan. Of the three talismans, there was a healing talisman, a teleportation talisman, and a 50-meter teleportation talisman.Manager Luo frowned as he saw it was a 2nd-grade talisman made by a 2nd-grade Symbol Master of a Seal Master. However, there was a very strong mental power coming from the three talismans. He carefu
Swordbound Chronicles Grass Herbs at Auction.
"We are opening this Light Cyperus Grass Herb for only 50 Demi grade Energy Stones. Each bid is a multiple of 10 energy stones," Ruan Ceng concluded for the herbal grass auction price.Restlessly, Yuan Fen complained softly and resignedly, thus attracting Yi Zan's attention."Big brother worker, do you need this grass? I saw you become agitated when the herbs started to be auctioned off," Yi Zan whispered to Yuan Fen.Meanwhile, bids began to be heard from the bidders in the room."60 energy stones!""Give it to me! 70 energy stones." It was time for the high-priced bargaining to begin in the room.Yuan Fen replied limply, "Actually, this Light Cyperus Grass is one of the ingredients for a potion that will help me break through the Mortal Realm 5 realm in no time. I already have the Yellow Phylanthus. And it still requires 2 more ingredients, where one of those auctioned herbs is the missing ingredient for my later potion," Yuan Fen said to Yi Zan."In that case, let me bid on that he

After the auction, the two children headed to the lobby on the 2nd floor to complete the administration of buying and selling auction items.At that moment, Manager Luo was seen serving customers. Yuan Fen and Yi Zan patiently waited for their turn to be served.Suddenly, "Miss Zuo and Brother Wang, we meet here again," Ruan Ceng said in greeting.The two children turned and looked at the young master. "I heard that the three types of talismans auctioned off earlier belonged to you. Perfect quality items," Ruan Ceng added with praise."Thank you for helping us, Bro Ruan Ceng. We're delighted with the price we got," Yuan Fen said with a smile.Ruan Ceng offered a favour, "Actually, what are your plans next? If you want to take a tour of our Treasure Hall, I'd be happy to help,"Excited!"I want to buy a sword to practice with. But the prices of items in this place are quite high.

Outside Morning Star City, as the sky emitted an orange color as evening approached, two teenage boys, Yuan Fen and Yi Zan, stood waiting for the arrival of the Winged Horse.Meanwhile, all the Cloud Sword Sect students had left the Magical Beast transport area, and the surroundings had become extremely quiet. The Beast Tamers had also left the place and returned to Morning Star City.Not caring about the time showing that it was approaching evening, the two children were chatting annoyingly with each other. Yuan Fen blushed when Yi Zan teased her with all the combat items she had just bought at the Treasure Hall."Worker brother... I'm afraid that when you become a symbol master, your daily life will be filled with hard work to make talismans and then sell them to buy items that enhance your appearance. Truly, you are a super teenager," Yi Zan teased."Hahaha... let me be a dandy; the most important thing is that I can be strong," Yuan Fen retorted.The two laughed at each other's jo

Meanwhile, while Jiayi thought that Lin Haoyu was Guo Jiang's brother's made-up name, on the contrary, the two young geniuses from the Peach Moon Sect and the Zhao Clan were shocked to hear the name Lin Haoyu, Guo Jiang's teacher.Zhao Hua and Yin Fu He glanced at each other then whispered."No wonder at such a young age he already possesses combat power far above that of a level 3 Earth rank Cultivator, even at the final level.I feel that his attack contains 1,900 jin of pure air.""I'm not surprised. The teacher who guided him directly was Mr. Lin Haoyu. He is the Ice Island Lord's representative whose name shook the Martial World some time ago."Yin Fu He and Zhao Hua were now also reluctant of Guo Jiang. That youngster was the direct disciple of the Deputy Island Sovereign, whose cultivation level was even higher than that of the Ice Island Sovereign.Meanwhile, Jiayi, who had been very enthusiastic about seeing the gathering of young heroes from various sects, consisting of the
Autumn Melody, Magic Unraveled.
It is forbidden to use enchantments and magic on this Ice Island!" Guo Jiang sang a verse of Autumn Arrives.Guo Jiang's voice sounded echoing; it sounded like the tone of a person who was humming enchanting magic. During the fall, Guo Jiang's voice can be heard as far as one lie, to the point that his charm has influenced the creatures of the night, now flocking to the seashore.The mysterious air that had previously enveloped Yin Fu He and Zhao Hua instantly vanished when the hum of When Autumn Comes rang out and dispersed Mahya's enchanting magic.Like people who just woke up from sleep, Yin Fu He and Zhao Hua suddenly came to their senses. The two of them shook their heads to shake off the dizziness—it was the mesmerizing charm that Mahya the Magus girl had cast.Wush-wush!The two geniuses from the Peach Moon Sect and the Zhao Clan hurriedly jumped back when they realized the alluring magic."Magic!" the two hissed, now more cautiously not daring to look at Mahya who was also sho

Jiayi, who had been hiding since the appearance of the girl with the magic aura, could no longer bear to stay hidden.She immediately jumped out from behind the ice mountain where she and Guo Jiang were hiding. That action made Zhao Hua and Yin Fu He surprised. But the newly appeared girl maintained her smile.The slightly dark-skinned magus girl with a foreign look was attractive not only to men, but even Jiayi, a girl, was fascinated."Are you a Spirit Master of Spirit of Moon rank?Let me guess. I don't think it would be wrong for me to refer to you as a magus from the West, would it?" Jiayi said loudly, making all the eyes that had been focused on the unique girl now turn to her—a beautiful petite girl, also containing a mysterious and enchanting aura."How could two young and beautiful girls suddenly appear on this deserted beach?" Yin Fu He wondered inwardly. His head was spinning; there were two beautiful girls now in front of his eyes.Meanwhile,The magus girl threw a friendl

Jiayi looked uneasy. She didn't want the two White Stream Sect Leader geniuses to kill each other."Cool brother Jiang, can't you break up those two youngsters?Your cultivation is much higher than Jiayi's.It would be much easier if one is from the same cultivation realm, compared to my low cultivation self, to separate those two youngsters who seem to be going crazy," Jiayi said with an expectant look at Guo Jiang.Guo Jiang thought for a moment. He considered the risk if he showed his snow lotus technique. He looked for an excuse to refuse."Then what answer should I give to that Yin Fu He? On the other hand, we both also watched him practicing with their Peach Moon Sect's secret techniques," Guo Jiang asked back.Jiayi was a resourceful teenager. With just a quick thought, she had come up with the right answer, just in case Yin Fu He turned his anger on the two of them."About that, brother Guo Jiang doesn't need to worry. I have thought of the right answer to silence Yin Fu He. F
Fifteen Steps, Endless Blades.
The sword in Yin Fu He's hand was getting closer to Zhao Hua's back when it glowed in rainbow colors. Beautiful but dangerous.Jiayi was wide-eyed at the sight. Her heart was upset that there wasn't the slightest defense from Zhao Hua, who still seemed indifferent."You stupid dandy, he thinks the Rainbow Sword Technique is only a low-grade technique," Jiayi tensed up in fascination at the beauty of the Rainbow Sword.Suddenly, unexpectedly, Zhao Hua turned around quickly. His face broke into a faint smile, a look of disdain on his face. He wasn't stupid enough to just let the sword in Yin Fu He's hand split him in half.With a cold snort, his hand quickly brought out the sword that had been ready to come out of its sheath, too fast for the naked eye to follow.In a swift motion, still in a hovering state, Zhao Hua returned the sword strokes, now his demeanor changed from clumsy to serious and authoritative looking. His voice chanting the sword incantation was loud enough to raise the
Perfume and Sword Shadows.
Jiayi was just about to jump out from behind the snow mountain and apologize to Yin Fu He, but her movement was stopped. Guo Jiang gripped the girl's adoration tightly, so tightly that she wanted to scream in pain.Her eyes bulged like they were going to pop out of their sockets, but her heart calmed down at the sight of Brother Guo Jiang's shady eyes."Hold back, sister Jiayi.We should not act rashly. The matter of peeping at people practicing their stash techniques is embarrassing.We should wait a little longer and see what happens. My guess is that Yin Fu He is too prejudiced. How could he possibly detect the two of us who are quietly safe due to the status of this protective Talisman?" said Guo Jiang, stepping cautiously with distrust of that Yin Fu He.There was silence, but the sea breeze carrying vapor and ice grains sounded rough.Five winks passed, and Yin Fu He seemed to lose his patience. Sword sounds rang out as the youngster of the Crescent Moon Sect drew a sword. His f
Arena of Shattered Ice.
Because he held a VIP invitation that was a special invitation for the Thirteen Immortal World Rulers Sect Master, Huang Guowei was given a place to stay, a large pavilion that could accommodate more than 20 people.The Ice Island's master had apparently made professional preparations by setting up so many makeshift buildings as lodgings for so many sects, that is, outside of World Lord Martial arts world's thirteen largest sects.They passed through a large arena where the floor looked like a mirror; it was the original floor of ice crystals that were decades old—never melted a speck.There were tons of circular seating seats around the stage of the ice-crystal-floored arena.Huang Guowei glanced indifferently then whispered to Guo Jiang and Jiayi."It looks like the host intentionally made a combat arena, it's the most dangerous arena I've ever seen.The floor of this ice crystal is very slippery, so the best balance and Qinggong techniques will be helpful in case you join the fight

Even from afar, the scent of jasmine mixed with lavender wafted up to their ocean-going ship.Jiayi laughed lightly at the dandy figure."That 15-year-old youngster is named Zhao Hua. He's the only son of the Patriarch of the Zhao Clan in the Ancient City of the Northwest Slope of this continent.At this young age, Zhao Hua had broken through to become a level 3 Earth Rank Practitioner. He mastered the 15 Steps of Death Sword Technique, a deadly sword technique of the Zhao Clan.Rumor had it that if someone in the Clan inherited the 15 Death Sword Movement Technique, then that person would become the next Patriarch of the Zhao Clan."Guo Jiang chuckled after hearing all of Jiayi's explanation. Indeed, in his recent journey, he felt that with his ability to break through to become a level 3 Earth Practitioner, it was extremely extraordinary. He was counted as a genius and a rare existence in the Martial arts world.But that sense of pride instantly melted away, drowning in the cold sea

In the Northern Region of the Silver Screen Continent, the snow season seemed to never end throughout the year. Even if spring or summer came around, it wasn't too long before the flower season and summer would move quickly, welcoming the arrival of fall as the start of the long snow season.Today was a beautiful day, when the sky was clear and bright, free of gray clouds. Nonetheless, here in the North Sea, the surface of the sea was pure white with thin ice glistening in the sun, making the three medium-sized ships sailing across the sea look like huge whales swimming on a silver mirror.Guo Jiang and Jiayi stood on the bridge of their Ocean Crossing ship, looking at the ice crystals that lay glittering on the seawater, looking like a glass tapestry.On the starboard side of their ships, within a safe distance was each ship on the starboard side with a large pennant; it depicted half a peach blossom, side by side with an embroidered silver crescent moon, with two other swords crosse
