Chapter 44: Diligent Cultivation Cannot Save the Thousand Autumn Valley

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Fellow practitioner Ji, do I still need to explain to you the current situation of your sect?”

Hearing what Ji Qixi said, Feng Xia could not help but shake his head and spoke with a speechless look on his face.

The old sect master was stunned for a moment before he laughed bitterly.

“The current situation of our sect… is truly caused by my negligence.”

The corners of his mouth curled into a bitter smile, and his aged eyes gradually became cloudy. “Back then, I was young and impetuous. I thought that my talent and capability were unparalleled. That as long as I reach the Primal Core Realm, I would be able to break through all the barriers and obstacles and restore the glory of the Thousand Autumn Valley…”

His voice became lower as he spoke, making him appear older as looks of regret, frustration, and helplessness appeared on the old man’s face.

“After I took over as the sect master, I was only immersed in cultivation and ignored the outside world. When I finally came back to my senses, the Thousand Autumn Valley had already become what it is now.”

Feng Xia fell silent.

Although he had no involvement in what happened, his Sword-Heart Integration had already reached the stage of perfection. He could really feel the deep bitterness in the old man’s words.

The sect master had thought that if he did not reach the Primal Core Realm, he would not be able to save the Thousand Autumn Valley.

However, if he put down everything and immersed himself in cultivation, he would have to neglect everything in the outside world. By the time he was enlightened, the Thousand Autumn Valley was already in a really bad state.

“However, your arrival gave this old man hope.”

As he spoke, the old sect master became excited once more, and his eyes emitted a brilliant light. “As long as I can break through to the Primal Core Realm… As long as I can break through to the Primal Core Realm… No, before that person from the royal family arrives, this old man will definitely condense my Essence into a Core!”

He bowed to Feng Xia and sat down cross-legged in the lotus position, immersing himself into a state of cultivation.

Feng Xia stood on the spot for a moment. After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and walked out resolutely.

After a while, he arrived in front of a tall and ancient pavilion. The pavilion was made of live peach wood and was resistant to insects and humidity. It was one of the best building materials to store books.

In the Thousand Autumn Valley library.

For the past 700 years, all the cultivation techniques, secret manuals and insights, among other things, collected by the predecessors and sages of the Thousand Autumn Valley had been stored in the library.

In the past, if one wanted to enter the library, one had to reach the corresponding cultivation realm. At the same time, one also had to accumulate enough merit points.

However, ever since the old sect master announced that the library was fully open to everyone, more than 90% of the disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley, including a few elders and officials, had swarmed into the library.

The situation was roughly like this:

Person. Person. Person. Person. Person. Person.

Person. Person. Feng Xia. Person. Person.

Person. Person. Person. Person. Person. Person.

“The Floating Dream Three Lives Technique is a soul cultivation technique. It can’t display much power in the early stages. If I want to increase my strength, I have to find a normal cultivation technique.”

Squeeze, squeeze.

“Other than that, I also lack a few orthodox means of attack. It’s not enough to keep relying on the Sword-Heart Integration and my soul divine power.”

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.

“In that case, there’s a lot I have to learn…”

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.

“…####”

Feng Xia believed that if he was inside a manga, his character would have full black lines on his head at this moment.

The old sect master’s idea was indeed not bad. In the face of this huge crisis, he would fully open up the library and secret vault. He strived to maximize the strength of the sect at the moment rather than consider its future development.

He understood how meaningful it was… but there were really too many people here.

“No, it can’t go on like this.”

In the end, Feng Xia looked at the crowded library and gave up on the tempting idea of becoming a top student.

—More importantly, he did not have the time for it.

As the saying went, a queue made people calm down, and a long queue made people especially calm. After quickly analyzing the pros and cons of various aspects, Feng Xia finally came to terms with the reality.

Even if he managed to squeeze into the library, he did not know if he would be able to find the cultivation technique he needed.

Even if he obtained the cultivation technique without any obstacle, it would probably take a long time for him to learn, master and familiarize himself with it.

In the meantime, that Primal Core Realm expert from the royal family would probably not give the Thousand Autumn Valley so much time to prepare.

“…So?”

Zhu Youniang, who was following Feng Xia again, looked curious.

“So I’ve decided…”

Feng Xia looked around and soon found a familiar figure in the crowd.

At this moment, an exceptionally kind smile appeared on Feng Xia’s face.

…

“This day has finally come.”

Below the library.

Amidst the crowd, Mo Yushu was like an unmoving piece of reef. His gaze was cold as he looked down with a detached attitude at the other disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley.

He knew very well that the sudden attack by the Five Elements Sect must have obtained the approval of the royal family.

At the same time, this also meant that his undercover mission was about to end. The day he returned home, he would no longer be an illegitimate child with a shameful status, but…

“Hello, Mo Yushu.”

At this moment, a happy voice suddenly sounded from behind him, as if it was greeting an old friend.

Mo Yushu subconsciously turned around, and a fist quickly appeared in his vision.

“You… Ah!!”

Mo Yushu only had time to let out a miserable cry. He did not even have the time to see the person who attacked him before he was knocked unconscious by the fist.

Just before he lost consciousness, he could only vaguely hear a voice, sighing with regret, that intermittently entered his ears.

“Very good, Nine Dragons Sacred Heart Technique fragment +1.”

Feng Xia slowly retracted his fist. His expression was calm, like the water in an ancient well. He dragged Mo Yushu out of the crowd expressionlessly and headed for a relatively quiet place.

Then, he quickly applied wound medicine on Mo Yushu and waited patiently for him to wake up.

“According to the current progress, we still need about 20 fragments…”

Feng Xia silently did his calculations as his gaze constantly swept across Mo Yushu.

“Ah… What happened just now…”

Not long after, Mo Yushu groaned and regained consciousness slowly. His eyes were filled with confusion.

Who am I?

Where am I?

Who hit me?

“Oh, you’re awake?”

Then, he saw Feng Xia’s smiling face and… the fist that kept enlarging in his vision.

Bang!

Before Mo Yushu could even say another word, an indescribable painful darkness attacked him, instantly engulfing the entire world in his eyes.

Another moment passed.

“Feng Xia, you…”

Bang!

“Bastard!”

Bang!

“Let me finish talking…”

Bang!

“Ah… I’m sorry for being too quick. What were you trying to say just now?”

“I… Can I faint on my own?”

Mo Yushu asked slowly and carefully, with a head full of bumps and an expression that was as black as the bottom of a pot.

The smile on Feng Xia’s face instantly lit up. “Of course not.”

Bang!

If you faint on your own, how am I supposed to farm the dropped balls?

Feng Xia retracted his fist again and frowned subconsciously.

“Is this guy’s drop rate… getting lower and lower?”
