Master Actually Has Such Incredible Power?

The Ancient Sacred Body possessed an invincible physique; its strongest weapon was its fists.

Thus, after giving Hua Yunfei the Taiyi Swordplay, he had deliberately left behind the Solar Fist Sutra before departing the sect.

This, too, was an imperial fist technique, created by an ancient emperor.

Legend had it that from the moment that ancient emperor began cultivating, his fists had been his divine armaments.

It was said that after this ancient emperor attained the Dao, an Ultimate Sacred Ground offended him and even provoked him, bringing out an Emperor Armament to confront him.

Then, the ancient emperor was ruthless and sparing with words. With a single raised hand and one punch, he shattered the Ultimate Emperor Armament, and the entire Ultimate Sacred Ground was wiped out beneath that punch!

What that ancient emperor had used was precisely the Solar Fist Sutra!

Golden blood energy boiled around Ye Bufan. His body moved as he swung his fists, and a vision of a blazing sun actually rose behind him!

That was the phenomenon manifested by activating the Solar Fist Sutra!

As the blazing sun vision rose, Ye Bufan's power became even more terrifying, carrying immense pressure that made even space tremble.

With broad, sweeping movements, a golden dragon of blood energy shot into the sky, then plunged down again, dancing around the blazing sun behind Ye Bufan.

"Bufan's Solar Fist Sutra has already entered the hall and grasped its essence. As expected of an Ancient Sacred Body!"

Standing behind Ye Bufan, Hua Yunfei nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of Top-Grade Saint Talent. His comprehension was extraordinary; he had grasped an emperor-level fist technique and entered the hall so quickly.

Ye Bufan now wielded three imperial cultivation arts—the Heavenly Emperor Scripture, Taiyi Swordplay, and Solar Fist Sutra. Among those of the same realm, he would be hard-pressed to find an opponent!

Even if Hua Yunfei fought Ye Bufan at the same realm, his odds of victory would not exceed ninety percent!

"Breaking through two levels in merely half a year—such talent could only be called monstrous!"

Hua Yunfei nodded approvingly. It seemed that in just a few years, he could wash his hands of it all and toss the position of chief seat to Ye Bufan.

Moreover, he discovered that Ye Bufan was quite perceptive.

After cultivating the Unfathomable Concealment Art, Ye Bufan had suppressed his apparent realm to Core Formation Realm Level One, creating the illusion that he had yet to break through after half a year.

In reality, he had already reached Core Formation Realm Level Three!

The child was teachable!

At this moment, Ye Bufan withdrew his fists and turned around, only to freeze. "Master?"

Then he ran happily to Hua Yunfei and said, "Master, when did you return?"

"I arrived at the sect an hour ago."

Hua Yunfei smiled and nodded. "Your master just saw the results of your cultivation over the past half year. You did very well."

"Thank you, Master."

Ye Bufan was overjoyed to receive Hua Yunfei's praise.

He was not good with words, but in his heart, he greatly revered Hua Yunfei.

After coming to Daoyuan Peak and entering this immortal realm, he had realized that his master was no ordinary person.

A deep sense of reverence rose within him.

Hua Yunfei glanced toward the Cave Abode where Tianji Zhenren lived. "Why do I sense the aura of your Martial Uncle Tianji?"

Ye Bufan's expression immediately turned strange. He glanced at Tianji Zhenren's Cave Abode and lowered his voice.

"Martial Granduncle Tianji has been squatting here for two months already. This disciple did not dare drive him away, but judging by Martial Granduncle's intentions, he probably would not want to leave even if he lived here for the rest of his life."

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Hua Yunfei raised a brow. Was this man trying to freeload?

He swept his gaze over the surroundings and immediately noticed that several of the precious herbs he usually cultivated were missing!

And they were all saint-level great medicines.

They were merely for Hua Yunfei to admire during his leisure time, not for cultivation at all!

After all, he had eaten too many of this level back when his realm had been low. He was already sick of them.

Yet while he was away, someone had actually eaten them.

What was he supposed to look at in the future?

His Master Actually Possessed Such Great Power?

"Master, who is he?"

Ye Bufan looked at Huang Xuan behind Hua Yunfei and asked curiously.

Huang Xuan was also looking at Ye Bufan, and he could tell that Ye Bufan possessed an Ancient Sacred Body.

Glancing at Hua Yunfei, he wondered just what background this bargain master of his had.

Was he merely the chief seat of a single peak in the Backer Sect?

Could it truly be that simple?

I don't think so.

But Huang Xuan did not dwell on it. Since he had become Hua Yunfei's disciple, and Hua Yunfei bore him no ill will and could provide cultivation resources others could not—

Then he should not entertain any other thoughts.

Hearing Ye Bufan's question, Hua Yunfei smiled faintly, stepped aside, and introduced him. "His name is Huang Xuan. His talent is no inferior to yours. He is the second disciple your master has taken in, and also your junior brother."

"Huang Xuan, this is your senior brother, Ye Bufan."

Ye Bufan and Huang Xuan exchanged smiles and nodded slightly in greeting.

"Greetings, Junior Brother Huang."

"You are too courteous, Senior Brother."

Hua Yunfei said, "All right, you two chat. Your master will go have a talk about life with Martial Uncle Tianji."

With that, Hua Yunfei walked toward Tianji Zhenren's Cave Abode.

"Senior Brother, can the Ancient Sacred Body still cultivate in this age?"

From memories of her previous life, Huang Xuan knew that during the era of the Profound Yellow Great Emperor, the Ancient Sacred Body could still cultivate, though cultivation had become much more difficult than before.

After the Profound Yellow Great Emperor ascended into transformation, however, the Heavenly Dao entered the Era of Dharma Decline. The laws suppressed everything, and all things changed.

Geniuses who should have possessed quasi-emperor-level talent were suppressed to saint-level talent when born in the present age.

And the Ancient Sacred Body, which should have been invincible beneath the heavens, had become completely incapable of cultivation.

According to nearly thirty thousand years of ancient records Huang Xuan had read at the Yaoguang Holy Land, whenever an Ancient Sacred Body tried to defy the heavens, mysterious laws would sense it and send down a killing tribulation!

Over those thirty thousand years, three Ancient Sacred Bodies had been born. Without exception, when their respective masters tried to forcibly reconnect their broken paths, they triggered the mysterious laws.

All three had died beneath divine punishment!

Ye Bufan should have been the fourth after them, yet he could actually cultivate safely and had even reached the Core Formation Realm!

It was inconceivable.

The only explanation Huang Xuan could think of was that Ye Bufan had encountered a benefactor.

A supreme expert had reconnected his broken path, borne the karma of the mysterious laws, and severed the killing tribulation!

Only then had Ye Bufan's severed path as an Ancient Sacred Body been restored!

Hearing Huang Xuan's question, Ye Bufan's lips curled upward. Looking at Hua Yunfei's retreating back, he said,

"It was Master. With his powerful mana, he helped me open up meridians as hard as divine iron, condense my core, and reconnect the broken path of the Ancient Sacred Body that had been severed for tens of thousands of years."

Ye Bufan had not finished speaking.

More importantly, Hua Yunfei had given him the Heavenly Emperor Scripture. That was the true main reason the Ancient Sacred Body could reconnect its broken path!
