12: Secret manual and Ziyang elixir.

Jiang Haochuan, who had been kicked out of the side room, shook his head with a smile.

It was already late, so he decided to go early the next morning instead.

Inside the room, Zhang Yang shook his head as he felt the progress of his Martial Skills.

At this rate, it would likely take another three to five days to reach Major Achievement in Sovereign Extreme Heaven Severing and the Great Sun True Fire Body Tempering Art.

He was still a long way from Perfection!

The night passed in silence.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yang stepped out of his room and began to Cultivate in the small courtyard in front.

"Brother Zhang Yang is Cultivating!"

At that moment, Jiang Haochuan arrived carrying a large jade box in one hand.

Someone followed beside him, carrying over twenty Martial Skills.

"Mhm." Zhang Yang nodded and stopped swinging his saber.

"Here! My father told me to give these to you! They're definitely good stuff!"

Jiang Haochuan had the person beside him hand over the Martial Skills. Zhang Yang took them and looked.

There were all kinds of Saber Technique Martial Skills, ranging from Human Grade Low Grade to profound rank, high grade.

It was a bit dazzling to behold.

Zhang Yang looked up at Jiang Haochuan, somewhat puzzled.

Jiang Haochuan quickly said, "Brother Zhang Yang, just take them and rest easy."

"I'll probably be staying home for about fifteen days. You can use this time to memorize them all."

"Fifteen days?"

Zhang Yang frowned slightly; he was still in a hurry to go back and collect his twenty-five Purple Sun Pills.

How many Purple Sun Pills could he earn in fifteen days?

Although the Jiang Family was indeed generous, he couldn't let it delay the improvement of his cultivation!

"Don't be in a hurry! Brother Zhang Yang, there's still something you haven't seen." Jiang Haochuan smiled and patted the jade box in his hand.

Then, Jiang Haochuan opened the jade box, revealing a thousand Purple Sun Pills packed tightly and neatly inside.

As soon as the jade box was opened, Zhang Yang could feel how dense the Origin Qi inside was.

"This is..." Zhang Yang looked at the jade box and spoke slowly.

Jiang Haochuan smiled, closed the jade box, and handed it to Zhang Yang.

"My father gave this to you as well, to repay you for saving my life!"

"There are a thousand Purple Sun Pills here. You can Cultivate to your heart's content during these fifteen days."

"When it's time to leave, my father will give you another thousand."

Zhang Yang took the jade box, feeling it was somewhat unbelievable as he listened to Jiang Haochuan.

Weren't Purple Sun Pills supposed to be extremely precious?

He only got twenty-five for completing a mission, and here were a thousand just like that?

And another thousand when he leaves?

Zhang Yang was a bit dazed by the number.

Seeing Zhang Yang's expression, Jiang Haochuan smiled slightly and spoke.

"Brother Zhang Yang, there's no need to be surprised. Purple Sun Pills might be very precious for those in the Meridian Opening and Spirit Aperture Realm."

"But for a Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm, that is not the case."

"I would like to hear more!"

Zhang Yang's interest was piqued; he knew next to nothing about Great Experts of the Nascent Transformation Realm.

"You should know that Purple Sun Pills can only be refined by a Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm."

"As for the refining method, a Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm draws Origin Qi from the Void Realm to refine them."

"The number of Purple Sun Pills each Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm refines at one time varies."

"For example, my father isn't very skilled at refining Purple Sun Pills, but he can still refine about a thousand a day."

"Some Great Experts of the Nascent Transformation Realm can even refine tens of thousands of Purple Sun Pills in a single day."

"So, Purple Sun Pills aren't precious at all to a Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm."

"It's just that refining these Purple Sun Pills takes away a day's worth of cultivation, so my father doesn't do it often."

After hearing Jiang Haochuan's explanation, Zhang Yang nodded.

So that was it. The Infant Transformation Realm was truly terrifying!!

"Then I shall accept them with gratitude!" Zhang Yang took both the jade box and the Martial Skills.

"By the way! Brother Zhang Yang, my father wants to personally guide you in your Saber Technique. What do you think?"

Jiang Haochuan looked at Zhang Yang and asked directly.

Hearing this, Zhang Yang's eyebrows shot up. A Great Expert of the Infant Transformation Realm wanted to personally teach him Saber Techniques?

Could there be such a good thing?

"Of course," Zhang Yang nodded.

In the next instant, Jiang Dao appeared before Zhang Yang and burst into loud laughter.

"Good! Very good! Excellent! Then for today, finish reading those Saber Technique Secret Manuals first."

"Tomorrow morning, I will come to formally guide you!"

The corners of Jiang Dao's mouth curled up, unable to contain his joy.

He laughed as he patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder, then turned and strode away.

Seeing his father like this, Jiang Haochuan couldn't help but shake his head.

"Then it's a deal. Brother Zhang Yang, you go ahead and Cultivate; I should go Cultivate as well."

With that, Jiang Haochuan left with the person he had brought along.

Once the two had left, Zhang Yang sat cross-legged on the ground and began reading through the twenty-plus Saber Technique Martial Skills.

Since an Infant Transformation Realm Martial Artist was going to teach him personally, Zhang Yang naturally couldn't be negligent. He decided to read through all twenty-plus Saber Technique Martial Skills first.

Two hours later, Zhang Yang finally finished reading all twenty-plus Martial Skills.

It was truly an eye-opener; there were all sorts of them.

Some were similar to Drawing-Saber Strikes, some relied on continuous waves of attacks against enemies.

And others where each strike was stronger than the last. There were twenty-three books in total, greatly expanding Zhang Yang's horizons!

"System! Simplify everything!"

[Ding! ...]

For a moment, the sounds of simplification were endless.

A moment later, Zhang Yang checked the results of the simplification.

The results of simplifying these 23 Martial Skills were all similar: just some simple, basic Saber Technique movements.

Downward cleaves, upward slashes, and horizontal cuts were all included.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yang organized these movements into a single continuous sequence.

Then, Zhang Yang opened the jade box, took out a Purple Sun Pill, and swallowed it. He began to breathe deeply, refining the Origin Qi to increase his cultivation.

At the same time, still shirtless, he Cultivated the Great Sun True Fire Body Tempering Art.

Then, he took his saber and repeatedly performed the continuous sequence he had just composed in the courtyard, Cultivating 24 Saber Technique Martial Skills at once!!

In the distant sky, Jiang Dao was observing in secret.

"Is this kid practicing his saber? Why are they all basic movements?" Jiang Dao rubbed his chin, a hint of confusion in his expression.

He had originally thought Zhang Yang took up his saber to start practicing one of those 23 Martial Skills, but he didn't expect them all to be basic movements.

Jiang Dao was observing from the shadows to better understand Zhang Yang's current Saber Technique Realm.

This would allow him to teach him better starting tomorrow.

Shaking his head, Jiang Dao continued to observe in secret.

Zhang Yang continued to swing his saber in the courtyard, as countless insights into Saber Techniques appeared in his mind.

Twenty-five minutes later, Zhang Yang had completely refined the Origin Power from the Purple Sun Pill, but he did not stop his movements.

Instead, he continued to practice that continuous sequence, strike after strike.

At that moment, a buzzing sound seemed to echo from the sky.

Zhang Yang's entire Essence, Energy, and Spirit shifted instantly. A soaring will rose from the top of his head, transforming into an illusory precious saber!

"This! This is!!!"
