Chapter 3738: Chapter 3728: What Is Monstrous?! (Fourth Update)
As a member of the High-level Demon Clan, he was born with a heaven-defying feral intuition, something far from what ordinary human cultivators could compare to! In terms of this instinctual heaven-defying spiritual root, if compared to the humans, Xu Shenglong could be called a once-in-ten-thousand-ages existence!
So, relying on his demonic beasts intuition, he really did have hope of mastering this Fate Calling Technique within one or two months!
Ye Chen, hearing this, merely smiled faintly and said, "I’m planning to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques!"
Xu Shenglong was stunned when he heard that, and for a moment he didn’t dare believe his own ears!
What did Ye Chen just say?
He wanted to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques?
You have to know, they only had a bit more than two months’ time left!
Moreover, it was absolutely impossible to spend all that time on the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques alone, yet Brother Ye actually wanted to cultivate them all?
These three kinds of heaven-defying spiritual root were all abilities that had an enormous impact on a martial artist’s strength. For an ordinary martial artist, to possess a heaven-defying talent in any one of them was enough to be called a peerless genius across the ages, right?
And if someone wanted, in a short period of time, to cultivate all three Cloud Clearing Three Techniques to a level that wasn’t low, then what was needed was to possess extraordinary, transcendent talent in all three aspects!
What kind of concept was that?
A genius who reached the pinnacle in just one of these talents might appear once in ten thousand years, so what about a genius who possessed two talents at the same time?
That would be a once-in-countless-ten-thousand-years appearance!
And to possess three talents at the same time!
That was practically a person who shouldn’t even exist!
He would have already surpassed the ultimate limit that ordinary martial artists could reach, right?
If there was such a person, he’d be an ultimate monstrous existence that might appear only once in billions of years!
And Brother Ye actually had that kind of confidence?
Even though Xu Shenglong admired and believed in Ye Chen to an incomparable degree, he still couldn’t help feeling that this was utterly inconceivable!
Ye Chen, however, didn’t care. He stood up and said, "Let’s go."
Xu Shenglong still hadn’t recovered from the impact and blankly asked, "Brother Ye, where are we going?"
Ye Chen said, "The cultivation method for the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques has already been monopolized by the Dark Domain, and no one is allowed to teach it privately. We’re going now to the Cloud Clearing Hall in Deceit City. After paying a certain price, we’ll be able to cultivate the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."
Whether it would work or not, wouldn’t they know as soon as they went and tried?
At once, the two of them left Black Stone Inn and headed toward Cloud Clearing Hall.
Very soon, Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong arrived before a solitary building standing atop a high cliff.
This building resembled a palace, constructed entirely from some unknown dark-purple stone. Above the main doors of the palace hung a plaque, upon which the three characters for "Cloud Clearing Hall" were written in bold, flying strokes like dragons and dancing phoenixes.
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered slightly, and he stepped inside together with Xu Shenglong.
This Cloud Clearing Hall covered a vast area, yet the martial artists inside the hall were scattered about in twos and threes; there were not many people.
A young girl dressed in a water-blue dress with a delicate, pretty face saw Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong walking over and greeted them with a slight smile, saying, "Young Masters, are you here to look for a Cloud Clearing Master? We just happen to have a few Cloud Clearing Masters with a success rate above forty percent free at the moment."
A Cloud Clearing Master was a martial artist who had attained a certain level of mastery in the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques. They provided services to other martial artists, appraising the other party’s strength. The requirement to become a Cloud Clearing Master was to have at least a thirty-percent success rate in appraisals!
Recommending Cloud Clearing Masters was also one of the Cloud Clearing Hall’s businesses.
But Ye Chen shook his head and said, "The two of us are here to study the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."
The girl was slightly startled, but she still quickly nodded and said, "Please, both of you, come with me."
With that, she led Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong deeper into the Cloud Clearing Hall.
Soon, under the girl’s guidance, Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong arrived at a rather elegant tea room. Inside, three old men with extraordinary bearing were seated, sipping tea together.
The instant Ye Chen saw these three old men, his expression couldn’t help but shift slightly. He felt three strange fluctuations sweep across his entire body at the same time!
Immediately after, three completely different expressions appeared on the faces of the three!
One old man with a goatee showed a trace of disdain on his face, while the slightly chubby old man beside him raised his brows, the look in his eyes as he gazed at Ye Chen filled with shock and puzzlement!
The last old man, whose expression was somewhat gloomy, looked at Ye Chen with his eyes flickering slightly, as if pondering something.
The girl smiled toward the three old men and said, "Master Hong, Master Huang, Master Ye, these two are Young Master Ye Shitian, Ye, and Young Master Jin, the tiger. They’ve come here intending to cultivate the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."
With that said, the girl introduced the three to Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong.
The old man with the goatee was named Hong Jin, and he was the instructor responsible for teaching the Tongyuan Technique.
The slightly chubby old man was named Huang Quan, and he was the instructor responsible for teaching the Heavenly Observation Technique.
The last gloomy old man was named Ye Gu, and he was the instructor for the Fate Calling Technique.
To become an instructor, one’s success rate in the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques had to be at least sixty percent!
Hong Jin glanced at Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong and said, "Which Magic Skill are you planning to cultivate?"
Xu Shenglong stepped forward first and said, "I plan to cultivate the Fate Calling Technique!"
Hong Jin looked at Ye Chen and said, "Kid, what about you?"
Ye Chen looked at Hong Jin and slowly opened his mouth. "I’m planning to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."
In an instant, the entire tea room fell into a strange silence. Then, the gazes of the three old men toward Ye Chen all became rather bizarre!
With a snort, Hong Jin was the first to let out a derisive laugh. Immediately after, a thunderous uproar of laughter echoed through the tea room!
The three of them—Hong Jin and the others—were all laughing wildly as they looked at Ye Chen with strange expressions.
They couldn’t figure out how someone as ignorant of his own limits as Ye Chen had managed to stay alive and make it into the Dark Domain!
He even wanted to cultivate all three Cloud Clearing Techniques?
Did this brat even know what he was saying?
Originally, the gazes of Huang Quan and Ye Gu toward Ye Chen still held a trace of some indefinable meaning, but now they had returned to normal.
Ye Chen asked, "What is it? Is it not allowed?"
Hong Jin let out a cold laugh. "Allowed, of course it’s allowed. The question is, can you afford the tuition? The tuition for cultivating the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques isn’t low at all, you know?"
In the eyes of the three, Ye Chen didn’t have the slightest chance of cultivating all three Cloud Clearing Three Techniques to a decent realm. Even if he somehow succeeded, who knew how many years later that would be!
Moreover, it was extremely inefficient. With that amount of effort, if he randomly chose just one Magic Skill to cultivate, his success rate would be much higher!
This was also why, in the Dark Domain, basically no one cultivated multiple Cloud Clearing Three Techniques at the same time...
However, the three of them didn’t point this out!
For a sucker as arrogant and full of himself as Ye Chen, if they didn’t fleece him, wouldn’t that be a waste?
At Hong Jin’s words, the space in front of Ye Chen flashed with light, and a pile of items appeared on the table before the three of them.
