80: Crimson Sky Spirit Flame
Upon hearing Ye Qingyi's words, Chu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he felt a hint of anticipation.
"What kind of reward, I wonder?"
He looked at Ye Qingyi with both eyes, secretly praying in his heart: I really hope the reward is a Cultivation Technique!
And as if she had heard his inner thoughts, his prayer seemed to come true.
Ye Qingyi took out a book and smiled, saying, "Little brother, aren't you troubled by not having subsequent Cultivation Techniques, making you unable to Breakthrough?"
"Here, this is the gift I prepared for you. See if you like it?"
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's face instantly showed surprise, "Thank you, Sister!"
With that, he quickly took the book and carefully opened it to glance through.
It was indeed the subsequent Cultivation Technique of the Heavenly Revelation Secret Codex. Although it only covered the Spirit Core Realm and Spirit Crystal Realm, for him, it was still a pleasant surprise.
Putting the book into his sumeru ring, Chu Yuan was already a bit impatient.
At this moment, Ye Qingyi smiled and said, "This Cultivation Technique is called the Heavenly Revelation Spirit Cultivation Art. The Rank of the entire Cultivation Technique has reached Divine-Grade, and it is the Great Xia Dynasty's guardian Cultivation Technique, very difficult for outsiders to obtain."
"The Heavenly Revelation Basic Method you mentioned before is a truncated version of the Spirit start Chapter of the Heavenly Revelation Spirit Cultivation Art, which the Great Xia Dynasty deliberately shortened and circulated for its people to Cultivate."
"Besides the Spirit start Chapter, truncated versions of the Spirit Na Chapter, spiritual vortex Chapter, Spirit Core Chapter, and Spirit Crystal Chapter are also circulated."
"Among these five truncated Cultivation Techniques, only the Spirit start Chapter is a Human-Grade Cultivation Technique; the others are all merely Earth-Grade."
"And these two chapters I found for you are the untruncated versions. The Spirit Core Chapter has reached Heaven-Grade, and the Spirit Crystal Chapter is even a Divine-Grade Cultivation Technique, which only the Great Xia Imperial Family and court officials can Cultivate."
Hearing this, Chu Yuan instantly recalled a previous anomaly.
Back then, the Heavenly Revelation Basic Method reached its limit after three enhancements, while the Cultivation Technique Yu Linglong gave only enhanced twice.
Was this the reason, after all?
However, this Cultivation Technique also has Ranks, and they're so disorganized?
He looked at Ye Qingyi and asked, "Sister, how are the Ranks of these Cultivation Techniques divided?"
Ye Qingyi seemed to be in a good mood and explained with a light chuckle, "Taking your Human Race as an example, based on the strength of the spiritual energy Cultivated, it is divided into Human-Grade, Earth-Grade, Heaven-Grade, Divine-Grade, and Saint-Grade."
"This spiritual energy strength and Spiritual Root Rank can all be detected through a spirit-measuring orb."
"And a Cultivation Technique that leads directly to the Saint Realm will feature nine interconnected yet independent Cultivation Techniques, corresponding to nine Realms."
"It's perfectly normal for each Cultivation Technique to have different Ranks due to its independence."
"Nine?" Chu Yuan was slightly surprised. "So, after the Spirit Crystal Realm, there are still four more Realms. I wonder which stage Sister has reached?"
Ye Qingyi smiled playfully and said, "After the Spirit Crystal Realm are the Spirit Soul Realm, Spirit Venerable Realm, Spirit God Realm, and Spirit Saint Realm."
"For the Ghost Race, the fifth Rank is Ghost King, the sixth is Ghost Emperor, the seventh is Ghost Venerable, the eighth is Ghost God, and the ninth is Ghost Saint, corresponding to the Human Race's Realms."
"And I am currently in the eighth-Rank Ghost God Realm!"
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's heart trembled. Was Ye Qingyi's Cultivation so high?
The further one Cultivates, the more difficult it probably becomes, and the greater the disparities.
And this Ye Qingyi was actually a powerful being in the Ghost God Realm, probably not far from the Ghost Saint Realm.
Under the very eyes of such an existence, could he really escape?
Become stronger!
He must become stronger!
Chu Yuan's resolve grew firmer; only by becoming stronger could he control his own destiny.
Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Qingyi and said seriously, "Sister, I'll go Cultivate now. After I Breakthrough, I'll prepare new dishes for you!"
With that, he turned and intended to go back to his room.
Now that he had obtained the Cultivation Techniques for the next two Realms, he was somewhat overconfident.
"Wait!"
Ye Qingyi's voice suddenly rang out, causing Chu Yuan to pause.
He turned his head and asked, "Sister, is there anything else?"
Ye Qingyi took out a black bead, her expression slightly more serious, and said,
"Little brother, I have another gift for you, but before I give you this gift, I need to give you a piece of advice."
Chu Yuan glanced at the black bead, vaguely feeling his heart beat a little faster.
For Ye Qingyi to be so serious, this item was probably not ordinary!
He looked at Ye Qingyi, "Sister, speak, I'm listening."
Ye Qingyi said with a serious expression, "Inside this is Sealed a Spiritual Fire called Chi Xiao Spiritual Flame. Although it is still in its nascent stage, its power is comparable to a fifth-grade Pill Fire."
"If you can refine it and allow it to grow, at its Peak, it can be even more terrifying than a ninth-grade Pill Fire, and it is said to pose a significant threat even to those in the Spirit Saint Realm."
"Now I am giving it to you. After you enter the Spirit Core Realm, I can help you refine it."
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's eyes widened slightly, a hint of joy flashing within them.
Such a good thing?
However, Ye Qingyi's expression suddenly turned serious, and her voice became a bit cold as she said,
"Little brother, before I give you this gift, I need to give you a warning first:"
"If one day you use this flame to harm me or You Lian and the other six in the slightest, even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth, even if it costs me my life and Dao, I will make you pay the price."
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's expression tightened, and he quickly promised, "Don't worry, that day will never come!"
As for the future?
If he had the complete Cultivation Technique, it wouldn't take long for him to reach the Peak.
By then, even without this Spiritual Fire, he could still suppress a Ghost God Realm, couldn't he?
A thought flashed through Chu Yuan's mind, without causing the slightest ripple.
Ye Qingyi nodded slightly and handed the black bead to Chu Yuan, "Keep it safe yourself. When you enter the Spirit Core Realm and wish to refine it, come to me for help."
Chu Yuan nodded, carefully took the bead, and put it into his sumeru ring.
"Remember, even if you reach the Spirit Core Realm, do not rashly refine it without my help, or you will die!"
Ye Qingyi's voice rang out again, with added seriousness and earnestness.
Chu Yuan nodded, "I understand, thank you for the reminder, Sister!"
Just as he finished speaking, he thought of something and couldn't help but smile, saying, "I think Sister is overthinking. The Chi Xiao Spiritual Flame is Sealed by Sister; without Sister's intervention, I can't even touch it, can I?"
But hearing this, Ye Qingyi shook her head and said, "Not at all! This Seal of mine is very special; it can suppress the spirituality of the Chi Xiao Spiritual Flame, forcing it into slumber."
"To unSeal it is also very simple: you just need to drip a drop of blood, which can pass through the Seal and allow the Chi Xiao Spiritual Flame to be imbued with your aura."
"At that time, the Seal will naturally open!"
"But once the Chi Xiao Spiritual Flame is imbued with your aura, you will have Karma with it. Either you refine it, or it will burn you to ashes."
"This is why I warned you."
Hearing this, Chu Yuan's heart tightened, and he quickly said, "Sister, I understand."
"Good that you understand!"
Ye Qingyi nodded and said, "Cultivate well. I'll go back first."
With that, her figure disappeared.
Seeing this, You Lian glanced at Dark Moon and was about to leave.
But she suddenly thought of something, her steps paused, and her gaze turned to Chu Yuan.
