76: Chapter 76 Yin Chaoge, Socially Anxious and Directionally Deficient
Yin Chaoge was a directionally challenged individual with severe social anxiety; while his talent was exceptional, his shortcomings were even more fatal.
Because of his fear of social interaction, he appeared extremely aloof, and because of this aloofness, others were afraid to interact with him, creating a vicious cycle.
As someone who was directionally challenged, after being left on the high platform by Senior Brother Chen Feng, Yin Chaoge looked at the fairyland before him and made a decision that could not go wrong.
"Just keep flying straight, that's the way!"
As for what Senior Brother Chen Feng had said, once directions and distances were mixed in, Yin Chaoge had passively forgotten everything.
Stepping onto his Flying Sword, he habitually reached behind his back, only to realize once again that he had entrusted his long saber to Su Yi to help him overcome his Heart Demon.
Su Yi and the others had joined the Inner Sect less than a week ago, and he had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage and arrived at the Inner Sect. His day and night of hard Cultivation had finally paid off; he had finally managed to barely keep up with their pace!
Yin Chaoge was in a great mood at this moment, even having the time to admire the fairyland-like environment of the Inner Sect.
However, upon closer inspection, Yin Chaoge felt that the Inner Sect was somewhat strange.
The Cultivators below were acting bizarrely: some were hugging large trees like koalas, some were running around holding stoves, and others were burying themselves collectively, leaving only their heads exposed.
"Is this some kind of specialty of the Luoxia Immortal Sect? Why does it feel like these Cultivators have something wrong with their heads?" Yin Chaoge looked suspiciously at the Cultivators below who were engaging in major performance art.
Ever since Su Yi had passed down the "Potential Stimulation Method" and the "Comprehension Affinity Method," only those Cultivators who had been long trapped at the Foundation Establishment 3rd Layer had been learning them.
Once someone actually used these methods to achieve a Breakthrough in their Realm, these techniques instantly swept through the entire Inner Sect.
Even some Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators who were at the half-step Golden Core Stage were secretly trying them out.
This led to the entire Inner Sect going crazy.
When the Elders reported this matter and discussed it collectively, they had to admit something.
Although these methods were detrimental to the dignified demeanor of an immortal, they were indeed able to strengthen the connection between the Cultivator and the Five Elements.
They decided to let it be, and because of Su Yi's contribution, the Sect even specifically rewarded Su Yi with one hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
With the Sect's endorsement, these two methods developed even more vigorously within the Inner Sect.
This was what created the scene that Yin Chaoge saw now!
Yin Chaoge flew on his Flying Sword directly toward Luoxia Peak, the main Peak of the Luoxia Grotto-Heaven.
He did not know how long he had been flying, but Yin Chaoge had already reached the perimeter of Luoxia Peak.
Suddenly, he collided head-on with a streak of rainbow light coming from Luoxia Peak!
Yin Chaoge's heart skipped a beat; he stopped his sword and stood still, his gaze cold as he watched the streak of light.
The streak of light, which had originally grazed past Yin Chaoge, turned back. Within the flowing light, a figure gradually emerged.
The person's Aura was long and steady; with every breath, traces of Dao rhythm flowed, and there was even a faint sense of the power of heaven and earth about him.
This was completely beyond the Aura and strength that one at the Foundation Establishment Stage should possess!
As the flowing light dissipated, a dashing youth looked at Yin Chaoge with disdain and shouted, "A Foundation Establishment 1st Layer Cultivator dares to head to Luoxia Peak? Who is your guiding Senior Brother?"
Yin Chaoge calmly looked at the youth before him and said, "Senior Brother Chen Feng guided me here, but due to urgent matters, he let me proceed on my own!"
The dashing youth paused for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Chen Feng? That trash? Hahaha, talk about finding something without even looking for it! Kid, let me ask you, do you know someone named Su Yi?"
Although he knew clearly that the person before him was far beyond his ability to contend with, Yin Chaoge became secretly vigilant the moment he heard the other party call Senior Brother Chen Feng trash and suddenly mention Su Yi.
"I have just entered the Inner Sect and have not yet found Senior Brother Su Yi. May I ask for your name, Senior Brother?" Yin Chaoge asked without servility or arrogance.
The youth snorted coldly: "Hmph, a mere Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator dares to ask for my name? What is your relationship with Su Yi?"
Yin Chaoge said guardedly: "I entered the Sect together with Senior Brother Su, and now that I have broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, I have come to find them!"
"Good, good, good. That's perfect, then let me take you there!"
"There is no need, I will go by myse—"
"Arrogant!"
Before Yin Chaoge could finish his refusal, the youth, having been denied Face, flew into a rage. With a wave of his hand, a golden light flew toward Yin Chaoge.
The golden light resembled a long snake, binding directly toward Yin Chaoge.
Yin Chaoge, who had been on guard, watched the golden light that had blocked his path. Suddenly, electric light flashed around his body, and he instantly vanished from where he stood!
"Eh? It's actually a mutated Spiritual Root, a Lightning Spiritual Root. A Foundation Establishment 1st Layer Cultivator has actually touched the threshold of an elemental attribute?" The youth let out a soft exclamation as he watched Yin Chaoge escape his golden light.
A mutated Spiritual Root and good talent. The black-clad youth before him would clearly become a Personal Disciple just like himself!
But! Hearing a strong wind rise behind him, the youth realized Yin Chaoge was already thrusting his sword, which was flickering with electric light, at him. His expression sank.
This black-clad youth had actually drawn his sword and was thrusting it at him with full force!
If it weren't for him being at the Golden Core Stage, even someone at the Foundation Establishment 7th or 8th Layer would be heavily injured by this strike!
Even if he was a genius, for him to be so reckless, he, as his Senior Brother, should discipline him!
Yin Chaoge, who had suddenly drawn his sword, felt his body jolt, his sword fell, and he was tightly bound by a rope formed from golden light!
The youth looked at Yin Chaoge, who was bound by the golden light, and said with a cold expression: "Sect Disciples fighting, and you use such a lethal move? Do you want to have your Spiritual Root stripped and be expelled from the Sect?"
Yin Chaoge turned pale. Only then did he remember that he had been so focused on fighting like a rabbit attacking an eagle that he had forgotten the Sect rules.
Even though the other party had attacked him first, the other party had only used a binding technique and had not used a lethal move.
If the other party's cultivation hadn't been far higher than his own, they would likely have died from that strike!
The youth looked coldly at the Yin Chaoge before him and said indifferently: "I am Wang Fugui, Wang Fugui of the Luoxia Immortal Sect!"
He then raised his hand, golden light appearing on his finger, and drew an imperial decree. With a flick of his finger, it flew toward the Inner Sect Perimeter.
Liu Xiaoyao, the former leader of the Ask Heaven Gang, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed holding his sword, suddenly shuddered. He opened his eyes and saw the imperial decree before him.
"It's Senior Brother Wang, who has already been promoted to Personal Disciple!"
Liu Xiaoyao's heart pounded violently, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.
Senior Brother Wang had handed the Ask Heaven Gang over to him, and he had originally thought that by relying on Senior Brother Wang, a Personal Disciple, the Ask Heaven Gang could grow stronger and create new glories.
Who knew that they would be completely cleared out by a white-clad Sword Cultivator sent by Brother Su—no, Su Yi!
Recalling that night when Gu Wanquan came with his sword, Liu Xiaoyao still felt a lingering fear.
How could a person smile so kindly while attacking so ruthlessly?
But now he had given up his identity in the Ask Heaven Gang and was even diligently cultivating the practice method given by Brother Su.
His entire being had already been molded into the shape of the Azure Dragon Study Group.
Now that Senior Brother Wang's decree had arrived, was he coming to hold him accountable?
Liu Xiaoyao swallowed hard. If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster; if it's a disaster, it cannot be avoided.
Liu Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and reached out to touch the decree.
The decree instantly turned into countless golden lights, and Senior Brother Wang's voice rang out: "Have Su Yi come to see me, and tell him that a black-clad kid is in my hands!"
