Gate of Immortality

Chapter 213: Auction Day

" Young master, why were you fighting so seriously against Brother Mo Yi? It was just a friendly spar." Bai Ruxue snorted lightly, From her toe, she really cared about Yang Shi.

" Friendly spar? Be it the competitions in sects or the duels in the clan, they are nothing more than some show." Yang Shi laughed coldly. " It's like clown prancing around, with some shiny techniques. I feel if you draw out your weapon, it must serve its purpose."

" Only unleashing your full power, you can understand your potential." Yang Shi said.

" But you got yourself injured, no?" Bai Ruxue rebuked.

" Uhh..." Yang Shi remained silent.

" But young master, what about your inner injuries? This Purple Ointment will only hear your body injuries." Bai Ruxue asked suddenly.

" I am thinking of letting my inner injuries heal on their own." Yang Shi said after some thoughts.

" I don't think it's a good idea. If not treated well, this will be a big problem." Bai Ruxue said.

" Well, I have backups." Yang Shi hook his head. Since his future path of Qi cultivation is looking bleak for him, he focused more on his Primordial Fiend Tyrant Body Arts.

" Hmm, I have already formed the embryonic Gold Devil Seal. My Flame Demon Seal is also almost reached the second layer. I should hurry and form at least three embryonic seals. Then, I will achieve Three Star Fiend Body."

" Hmm, I guess, Flame Demon Seal and Earth Monarch Seal is perfect for me. Or, I can try Wood Spirit Seal instead of Flame Demon Seal." Yang Shi pondered.

The Primordial Fiend Tyrant Body Art was an Immortal grade body refining technique. Its complexity is also high. Completing three embryonic seals grants the Three Star Fiend Body. It can rival the Violet Palace Expansion Realm cultivators.

But choosing the three seals for the Three Star Fiend Body is tricky. It's not fixed which three should be used. Commonly, cultivators choose pairs of complementing attributes, like - Flame, Metal, Earth or Water, Wood, and Earth.

But choosing conflicting elements has its own benefits and harm. First, it's hard to stabilize the opposing elements. Most cultivators choose one or two elements to cultivate. So, it's difficult for them to balance conflicting elements.

But the harder the technique, the greater is its power. Fully cultivating the Primordial Fiend Tyrant Body Art will allow Yang Shi to crush Heavenly Sovereign stage cultivators by sheer physical power.

" Wood Spirit Seal will give me the power of Wood Elements. It can be used for healing, alchemy. The wood element is a more supportive type, so the majority of cultivators don't cultivate this. But it's best for those, who are walking on the path of alchemy, beast taming, or any kind of supportive role. 

Yang Shi already had Gold Devil Seal for both offense and defense. He was choosing Wood Spirit Seal to have a healing ability. In terms of healing, no one can Wood element is best. As for Earth Monarch Seal, Yang Shi chose it over Flame Demon Seal because it's the same attribute as Gold Devil Seal. 

Both will suppress the Wood Spirit Seal as both metal and fire elements oppose the wood. Earth element, on the other hand, is pretty much neutral. So Yang Shi decided to cultivate these two seals.

Yang Shi focused on his Wood Spirit Seal as he drew wood energy from it and circulated through his body. A green colored qi flowed out from the Wood Spirit Seal as it spread through his body. Yang Shi could feel a tingling sensation as the wood qi wrapped around his wounded organ.

Yang Shi could feel his inner wounds were getting healed by the wood qi. But the process is much slower. Yang Shi didn't discourage as he continuously used the Wood Spirit Seal. Bai Ruxue finished applying the Purple Ointment.

" Young Master, You feeling any better?" Bai Ruxue asked. " Well, My body is feeling fine." Yang Shi nodded. He decided not to use the Golden Restoration Pill.

" Mm, Bai Ruxue, come here." Yang Shi pulled Bai Ruxue to his arms as he cuddled her. " Hnngh, Young master, you are injured." Bai Ruxue pouted.

" Well, I have enough strength to make you submit." Yang Shi smirked as he pushed down Bai Ruxue.

" Ouch!" Yang Shi suddenly hissed as he felt some pain around his ribs. Bai Ruxue was startled, " Young master, just take some rest. You are not fully healed yet."

" Yeh, I guess." Yang Shi's face turned stiff as he became embarrassed. " Heh, Who was just saying that he has enough strength to make me submit?" Bai Ruxue couldn't help but laugh. Yang Shi buried his head in the pillow as he pretended to sleep.

" Damn it." He couldn't help but silently curse in his heart as he continued to use his Wood Spirit Seal.

The next day, Yang Shi woke up early as he went to check Mo Yi's condition. 

" Haha! Brother Yang, I am so happy." Mo Yi couldn't help but laugh in joy. " Eh? What happened?" Yang Shi asked curiously.

" Well, After last night's spar, I achieved a breakthrough in my sword art. For now, I am able to produce three sword lights. When I will able to condense nine sword lights, I will be able to comprehend the Sword intent." Mo Yi said.

" Sword Intent, huh?" Yang Shi muttered. Actually, that day, Yang Shi went to Mo Xiaowen for this very reason. He witnessed the power of his Sword Intent, thus got injured a bit. 

He dared to spar with Mo Xiaowen, to gain enlightenment. But all he was able to do was a slight cut on the Mo Xiaowen's palm. But he wasn't sad as Mo Xiaowen's strength was a whole another realm. But with a strange stroke of fortune, he managed to comprehend the Saber Intent before he could cultivate the Sword Intent.

" Well, I guess I still need to wait to cultivate the sword intent. But that's acceptable as I am really not doing any assassination mission at the moment." Yang Shi thought inwardly.

" Well, Let's hope that you will be able to cultivate Sword Intent like your Elder Brother." Yang Shi nodded.

" True." Mo Yi nodded. " I will show this to Liu Jie. Hehe, I want to see her reaction." Mo Yi couldn't help but smile evilly.

" Ah yes, Today is the day of the auction at the Hundred Gold Pavilion. Brother Yang. we should hurry." Mo Yi suddenly said.

" But it's still morning?" Yang Shi was confused. " Well, there is more than you think." Mo Yi laughed.
