Chapter 193: Su Chen, a Substitute?
Chapter 193: Su Chen, a Substitute?
After listening to Chi Xiaoyun's description of the entire task process, Yang Yueyao didn't refute anything.
However, she insisted that Su Chen not take the highest contribution points.
The explanation given to Chi Xiaoyun was that this was everyone's first task, and there were areas where they could improve.
As they had helped each other, there was no need to distinguish who had the highest contribution.
In the end, they decided to evenly distribute the contributions among everyone.
Chi Xiaoyun was somewhat dissatisfied with this outcome, but today, her Senior Apprentice Sister Yueyao seemed quite firm.
The next day, Chi Xiaoyun shared the situation with everyone.
Su Chen had doubts about this decision.
However, he could accept this one-time equal distribution of contribution points.
After receiving these contribution points, Su Chen immediately borrowed several cultivation techniques and some books introducing the history of this world from the Windriding Pavilion.
With the equal distribution, the contribution points became very limited.
The cultivation techniques and books he could exchange were just a couple.
From these foundational techniques, one could gain some insights into the cultivation paths of martial artists in this world.
Through this task, Su Chen witnessed Chi Xiaoyun's strength.
At the Ninth Stage Perfect Realm, she had yet to step into the Seventh Stage.
Such strength was somewhat lacking.
But when Su Chen saw her status in the Windriding Pavilion, it seemed like she was a pillar of support.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, disciples were sent to deal with demons, as demons were highly sensitive to the aura of strong cultivators and could easily detect their presence.
However, Su Chen felt that there seemed to be a lack of strong cultivators here.
After a day of reading, Su Chen finished browsing the books without finding anything particularly valuable.
The cultivation methods were very ordinary, even inferior to the common cultivation techniques in Tiangang City.
Perhaps with more contribution points, he could exchange them for higher-value cultivation techniques in the Windriding Pavilion and gain some insights.
Su Chen directly returned the borrowed books.
On his way back to his residence, Su Chen encountered Yang Yueyao.
She seemed to be waiting for him.
As soon as she saw him, she walked up immediately.
"I don't know where you got your information, but your methods will only backfire here.
Chi Xiaoyun and the others probably thought that I would give you special treatment because of that person.
But you're thinking too much.
I, Yang Yueyao, despise that person. No matter how much you imitate him, don't even think about getting any extra benefits from me."
Hearing Yang Yueyao's words, Su Chen couldn't help but frown.
Previously, Chi Xiaoyun had mentioned that he resembled someone.
It seemed to be the same person Yang Yueyao was talking about.
"I don't understand your true intentions, Senior Apprentice Sister. I hope you can be more explicit.
I, Su Chen, have always been like this and have no intention of imitating anyone."
Su Chen replied, hoping that Yang Yueyao would explain herself more clearly.
He had just met her and had no connection with her.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Yang Yueyao's face remained cold, but she still nodded.
"It's best not to imitate him, as it won't benefit you.
Everyone's abilities are different, and the cultivation techniques they can learn vary greatly.
If you try to imitate him, you'll only manage to mimic his appearance to a certain extent.
The profound meanings behind his techniques will be vastly different."
Su Chen seemed to understand the implied meaning in her words, which was probably telling him not to imitate someone.
This was what Chi Xiaoyun had mentioned earlier, that his use of the blade technique resembled someone.
And this person had a close relationship with Yang Yueyao.
In her eyes, Su Chen was trying to become that person's substitute by imitating him.
And then, he would ask for favors from her.
"Rest assured, Senior Apprentice Sister. On the path of cultivation, one refines the body and comprehends the heart.
Since I've chosen this path, I'll follow my own cultivation journey, with no intention of imitating anyone.
In front of Yang Yueyao, Su Chen spoke bluntly.
She had really thought too much, assuming he was deliberately imitating someone to win her favor.
"Just keep it to yourself. You're still young, and if you want to improve your strength, don't go down these crooked paths."
Su Chen didn't argue with her and merely nodded, returning to his residence.
But seeing Su Chen's figure, Yang Yueyao still couldn't help but be lost in thought.
In Chi Xiaoyun's eyes, Su Chen's figure wielding the blade resembled Yin Nanyi, and Yang Yueyao might unconsciously favor him.
However, in reality, Yang Yueyao felt more repulsed.
She still held a grudge against Yin Nanyi, and she didn't want others to imitate him.
In her opinion, no one was worthy of imitating Yin Nanyi.
In the days that followed, if there were no tasks, Su Chen would find a quiet place to cultivate.
He put away the Heavenly Destiny of Indomitable Will and tried to feel the binding pressure of this realm as much as possible.
Indeed, cultivation under heavy pressure brought about significant progress.
When there were tasks, Su Chen would go to execute them.
Although the Windriding Pavilion was a powerful force in the Northern Abyss Kingdom, Su Chen felt that the tasks they undertook were rather simple.
They hadn't even encountered Golden Demons, only Greater Demons.
The more Su Chen understood, the more he felt that the martial artists and demons here were relatively weak.
After completing a task, Su Chen casually mentioned this to Chi Xiaoyun.
According to her words, the strongest beings in this realm could break through to the Peak of the Radiance Realm.
The very top experts could even surpass the Radiance Realm.
In her description, the Radiance Realm was an extremely profound stage.
And Yang Yueyao's senior sister had already reached the Radiance Realm.
"In most cases, Senior Sister Yueyao's sword energy is enough to end the lives of those demons we encounter.
In the Windriding Pavilion, only those two or three seniors can match Senior Sister Yueyao's strength."
From Chi Xiaoyun's words, it seemed that Yang Yueyao's strength was among the top of the younger generation in the Windriding Pavilion.
No wonder she had that confidence, thinking she needed to curry favor with her.
She even went as far as to learn and imitate someone close to her.
Su Chen had never seen Yang Yueyao in action, but he didn't feel she was that formidable.
In the subsequent tasks, Su Chen continued to perform exceptionally well.
Many in the Windriding Pavilion were willing to carry out tasks with Su Chen.
Su Chen was steady in his actions, and even when facing danger, he always managed to resolve it.
Most people now owed Su Chen a favor.
But every time the merits were reported, they would be questioned by Yang Yueyao.
However, recently, she only questioned and didn't cause any further trouble.
After accumulating enough contribution points, Su Chen borrowed a blade technique from the Windriding Pavilion.
According to Chi Xiaoyun, this was the most challenging cultivation technique in the Windriding Pavilion.
It was called the Frostblade Technique.
When the blade energy was unleashed, the surroundings seemed to turn cold, and frost would form.
With each swing of the blade, frost and coldness filled the air.
This was the description of the Frostblade Technique.
As Su Chen studied this blade technique, he finally felt a hint of profundity.
The ultimate essence seemed to be a different application of Qi Energy.
The blade energy unleashed by this technique seemed to have its power increased several times over.
After cultivating in his courtyard for two days, when Yang Yueyao's perception of Su Chen. When she heard that he was practicing the Frostblade Technique, she brought people from the Windriding Pavilion's library with her.
She had them take away the cultivation manual of the Frostblade Technique.
She also left Su Chen with a warning, forbidding him from learning any techniques that the other person had practiced, especially the Frostblade Technique!
