In the blink of an eye, it had been three days since Su Chen came to the Supreme Wu Academy.
Life in the Taiwu Academy was still very unorganized. There were not classes every day. Only when the Dean was present would there be a class every morning. However, the Dean would not impart too much knowledge on cultivation. Instead, the Dean would mainly talk about the use of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, as well as some tips on cultivation and so on.
The greatest advantage that the students of the Supreme Wu Academy had was actually the Tripitaka Block in the deepest part of the valley.
In the Tripitaka Block, there was the richest collection of secrets in the whole of Bei Xuan Country. There were all kinds of martial arts manuals, all of which were collected by the Headmaster from all over the country. There were even some martial arts manuals from overseas cultivation sects.
Su Chen was not in a hurry to find Han Caiyi and Jin Xuanwu to ask for their experience in refining medicine. He spent the past three days in the Tripitaka Block reading.
Su Chen did not even look at techniques below the Heaven Tier.
He only looked for Spirit Tier techniques.
In the Tripitaka Block, there were a total of thirty-six Spirit Tier techniques!
Su Chen did not miss a single one and read them all.
Regardless of whether he needed them or not, it was not a bad thing to expand his skill list. If he needed them, he could just use his skill points to fill them up.
There were three techniques that Su Chen liked very much. He immediately used his skill points to fill them up.
One of them was a Spirit Tier sword technique. The name of this sword technique was very simple and crude. It was called Exploding Sword.
There were three levels to Exploding Sword, and each level required thirty thousand skill points.
The first level's sword technique was called Exploding Qi Sword. With one slash, it could explode Heaven Earth Yuan Qi and produce a shocking killing power.
The second level's sword technique was called Exploding Killing Sword. It could gather Heaven Earth Yuan Qi at a single point and produce a penetrative destructive power.
The sword move that came with the third level was called 'Vibration Explosion Sword'. This move had the strongest sword aura, but it also consumed the most energy. A single slash would consume all of the cultivator's elemental force. All of the elemental force would be concentrated in the sword aura and explode, resulting in a large-scale explosion.
It was not an exaggeration to say that this sword technique could destroy a city and kill an army of a million.
The cultivation requirements for the Burst Sword Technique were actually very strict. It required the cultivator to comprehend a certain level of Sword Dao and reach the state of One with the Sword Dao. No one in the Taiwu Academy had ever learned it.
However, Su Chen relied on his Skill Points. He did not even need to reach the realm of One with the Sword. As long as his Skill Points were in place, he could instantly max out any Skill. This was the result of decades of hard work for others.
In addition to Sword Burst, Su Chen also learned two other skills. One was called "Big Dipper 36 Steps", which was a Spirit Level movement skill. It could greatly increase one's speed and dexterity in close combat, increase the accuracy of one's attacks, and increase the success rate of dodging the enemy's attacks.
The other one was called "Righteous Clarity Heart Technique".
This was a basic cultivation technique, and its only use was to nourish and strengthen the soul.
This was a cultivation method that originated from the Righteous Sect. Generally speaking, only those who had joined the Righteous Sect were qualified to learn it. However, the Taiwu Academy was not an ordinary place. As a disciple of the Taiwu Academy, there were no restrictions on learning it.
However, in order to cultivate the Righteous Clarity Heart Technique, one had to follow the teachings of the Righteous Sect. One had to have faith in the Righteous Dao. Those without faith could not cultivate the Righteous Clarity Heart Technique.
However, Su Chen naturally did not have this threshold. With just a few Skill Points, he had reached the max level.
What was faith?
Su Chen did not know at all, and he was not interested.
If he had faith, then what he believed in was his fist. What he believed in was the power in his hands.
This was what he believed in.
When he left the Hidden Scripture Tower, Su Chen only had 500,000 Skill Points left.
"This consumption is still a bit fast. I thought I could use it for a while longer, but it seems like it won't be enough soon."
After returning to the bamboo house, Su Chen planned to rest for a while before going to find Senior Han Caiyi to learn alchemy.
However, when he returned home, he saw Yue Ya 'er sleeping soundly on his bed.
Su Chen angrily slapped her awake.
After waking up, Yue Ya 'er still looked unhappy. "Sir, you're my study companion. Aren't you embarrassed to leave me alone?"
"You make it sound like you've paid me a lot."
Su Chen pulled Yue Ya 'er away and lay on the bed.
After not sleeping for three days, Su Chen was extremely sleepy.
Yue Ya 'er pouted angrily. When she saw that Su Chen was already asleep, she rolled her eyes and came up with a wicked idea. She quietly lay down and took out a charcoal pen to draw two big turtles on Su Chen's face.
However, what Yue Ya 'er did not expect was that Su Chen had the protection of the Primordial Chaos Energy on him, so she could not draw any marks.
Yue Ya 'er was unconvinced and tried other pranks, but to no avail.
"I don't believe that I can't prank you!"
Yue Ya 'er placed her hands on her hips and was thinking about more powerful pranks. However, at that moment, she suddenly suffocated. She covered her mouth and fell onto the bed. Her vision turned black and she fainted.
Four hours later, Su Chen woke up after a good night's sleep.
When he saw Yue Ya 'er lying on top of him, he shook his head helplessly.
This girl really did not have the slightest bit of restraint.
"Hey, get up. I'll make you grilled fish."
After calling out for a long time, Yue Ya 'er did not respond.
Su Chen frowned and hurriedly turned Yue Ya 'er over. He was surprised to find that there was a black aura spreading on her face.
"What's going on?"
Su Chen suddenly thought of something and opened Yue Ya 'er's mouth to take a look.
Indeed, he found that the black crescent birthmark at the base of her tongue was emitting a thick evil aura.
It was as if something evil was about to wake up!
Su Chen frowned as divine runes wrapped around his fingertips. He reached into Yue Ya 'er's mouth and used the power of the divine runes to suppress the evil aura in the black crescent.
With the suppression of the divine runes, the evil aura converged a little and gradually calmed down. The black aura on Yue Ya 'er's face also slowly shrank back.
Soon, Yue Ya 'er woke up.
"What's with the black crescent on your tongue?" Su Chen immediately asked.
Yue Ya 'er said weakly, "I don't know. I had it when I was born. Grandpa said that it was a seal."
"Does this happen to you often?"
Yue Ya 'er shook her head. "It didn't happen in the past. It only started last year. At first, I could recover in a short while. Now, it takes longer and longer. Every time, I have to sleep for a long time to recover."
Su Chen let Yue Ya 'er lie down to rest. He left the bamboo house and planned to talk to Xia Huaigu.
He had vaguely sensed that the evil aura sealed under the black crescent was very similar to the aura of the evil spirit he had killed in the Ghost Roar Sect. However, it was darker and deeper.
This was definitely not a good omen.
Su Chen flew all the way to the Imperial Palace. Using his identity as a student of the Supreme Wu Academy, his journey was smooth. However, after entering the Imperial Palace, he learned that Xia Huaigu had left Stellar Sky City three days ago.
"Where did the Imperial Advisor go?"
The little attendant shook his head. "When the Imperial Advisor left, he was in a hurry and did not say anything."
Strange, what could make the Imperial Advisor so anxious?
Just as Su Chen was about to leave the Imperial Palace, a beautiful woman who looked similar to Yue Ya 'er suddenly rushed over.
Could it be Yue Ya 'er's mother?
