Chapter 1162: Mastering the Green Leaf Sword Vision, the Nine-Leaf Soul Herb, Master Daoist Qing Ling’s Visit
Ye Zhu lost, and news of his defeat spread rapidly throughout Three Clarity Daoist Sect.
Everyone was talking about the Hundred Academy’s Chief.
However, the Hundred Academy’s Chief, who was the topic of everyone’s conversation, had gone into closed-door meditation inside an ordinarily small mountain peak.
That mountain peak was the location of Gong Yue’s residence.
Gong Yue, Shang Honghua, and the others were not surprised about Chu Kuangren defeating Ye Zhu.
After all, he had been undefeated amongst the younger generation back in Planquilon Immortal World, and no one was a match for him. They had since gotten used to it long ago.
What shocked them more was the fact that Chu Kuangren was able to deal such a huge blow to the Three Clarity Daoist Sect, so much that the latter could only stay silent despite what he had done.
They were more astonished about that than him defeating Ye Zhu.
“The Celestial Demon Tribe…”
“What a terrifying force he has behind his back.” Gong Yue shook her head and lamented.
…
She did not know much about the Celestial Demon Tribe but only after asking around for a few days did she realize how terrifying that tribe was and that they had Chu Kuangren’s back.
As for Bei Ming, he had already disappeared long ago. After all, he was the manifestation of a strand of Celestial Demonic qi, so he could not stay for long.
“Teacher, my King has been inside there for so long. Could he have injured himself during the battle against Ye Zhu?” Shang Honghua asked anxiously.
“Don’t worry. Our boss is a powerful person. He’ll be fine.” Lil Fox, who was standing aside, reassured her.
“That’s right. There’s no need to worry, Honghua. We saw how that battle ended. It’s clear that Brother Chu isn’t injured at all. He must have his reasons for going into closed-door meditation at such a time,” Gong Yue replied with a smile.
‘Injured?’
On the contrary, she was even more worried about Ye Zhu’s condition. If something bad were to happen to him, Chu Kuangren’s relationship with the Daoist Sect would further worsen.
As for Chu Kuangren…
‘Hm…’
She could not recall seeing him injured before.
‘Now that I think of it, he never seems to get hurt, eh?’

Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren was still in closed-door meditation. Sitting with his legs crossed on the bed, a small bundle of blood was levitating before him, and it was Ye Zhu’s blood!
“I’ve done it!”
Chu Kuangren suddenly opened his eyes.
A green flash of light appeared in his eyes, and there were two leaves with razor-sharp sword qi surging within them.
If anyone else were here, they would be incredibly shocked.
Chu Kuangren had mastered the Green Leaf Sword Vision!
“As expected of one of the Ten Honorable Supreme Immortal Physiques. Although it’s incomplete, this physique can still increase the power of my Sword Dao by quite a lot.”
“Hmm, not bad… Not bad at all.” Satisfied, Chu Kuangren smiled.
During Chu Kuangren’s battle with Ye Zhu, he sneakily collected some of Ye Zhu’s blood to analyze and replicate the Green Leaf Sword Vision.
That was precisely why he went into closed-door meditation, and with help of the Tome of Physiques, the process was smooth for Chu Kuangren.
However, it was a shame that the Green Leaf Sword Vision was incomplete, so its power was inferior to the complete version of that Honorable Supreme Immortal Physique.
Then again, even if that was a complete Honorable Supreme Immortal Physique, he still could not analyze it just by relying on some blood.
“With the Tome of Physiques, perhaps I might be able to perfect and fix this Honorable Supreme Immortal Physique,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
It was simply unimaginable to think that the Green Leaf Sword Vision, Heavenly Samsara Physique, and Chaos Celestial Demon Physique were all possessed by one single person.
Not to mention, he also possessed the Transcendental-tier Ultimate Almighty Source Physique!
Chu Kuangren’s proficiency in Daoist Physiques was unlike any other.
“Also, I’ve verified the Heavenly Samsara Physique and the Chaos Celestial Demon Physique’s compatibility through this battle.”
“It seems that I’ll have to research more about the rebirth cycle intent.”
He ended that battle with a combination of his Reincarnation Tribulation Light and the Yin Yang Life and Death Symbol. He came up with that move in a flash of inspiration, meaning that the move still had not been perfected.
However, if that imperfect move could already defeat Ye Zhu, its strength would surely increase a lot once it was perfected.
Not only that, but it was a combination of the two Daoist Physique’s divine abilities.
He still had not combined both Daoist Physiques, and that was what Chu Kuangren really wanted to research.
If he managed to combine those two Daoist Physiques, he could then use the power of the rebirth cycle and any of their divine abilities whenever he wished.
In other words, he gained a lot from that battle.
“Let’s do a gacha roll then.”
Since he was in a good mood, he opened his Fantasy Roulette.
“Congratulations, Host! You have obtained a God-tier item, the Nine-leaf Soul Herb!”
‘The Nine-leaf Soul Herb?’
Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up.
“The Nine-leaf Soul Herb, the Superb-tier Immortal Herb?”
Immortal Herbs and pills correspond to the Immortal cultivation realms, and Superb-tier Immortal Herbs were known to be at the Gilded Immortal level. It meant that those Immortal Herbs could benefit even Gilded Immortals.
The Nine-leaf Soul Herb was the best of the best among Superb-tier herbs.
Besides that, it was also the rarest Soul Herb of all and could be used to increase the level of one’s soul.
“Excellent. It’s been a while since my Nine-Cycle Trinity Soul Refinement has been stuck in the Eighth Cycle. It’s time for an increase.”
“This Nine-leaf Soul Herb came just right on time.”
Chu Kuangren did not use the Immortal Herb immediately as he had something more important to attend to. “Judging by the time, he should be coming to pay me a visit by now.”
Outside the hut, an elderly man holding a whisk suddenly arrived.
Upon seeing him, Gong Yue quickly bowed and greeted him.
“Greetings, Sect Leader.”
It was Master Daoist Qing Ling.
At that moment, Gong Yue was feeling very nervous. After all, she was well-acquainted with Chu Kuangren, who made a huge mess in the Three Clarity Daoist Sect.
‘The Sect Leader wouldn’t do anything bad to me, right?’
“There’s no need to be so formal.”
Master Daoist Qing Ling did not show any emotion. Then, he looked at Shang Honghua nearby and nodded with a smile. “Not bad, With this cultivation level at your age, you can truly be a match for the Heavenly Champions.”
“I don’t deserve such praise, Sect Leader,” Shang Honghua replied.
“I’ve completed my investigation into your matter, and I’m here to deliver you the final verdict. Starting from today, you shall be known as the core disciple of the Daoist Sect, and you’ll enjoy the same treatment as the other Heavenly Champions.”
Shang Honghua was stunned for a while before she said, “Thank you very much, Sect Leader.”
Having been treated so poorly in Three Clarity Daoist Sect, she had once thought of leaving them. Would it not be nice to just be by Chu Kuangren’s side?
However, she could not do it.
Gong Yue and all the previous Jade Clarity Immortal Sect’s disciples were still here. If she were to leave, their lives would certainly become even worse.
Not to mention if Master Daoist Qing Ling would interfere, most of the higher-ups were usually so swamped with work that they would not have the time to bother with petty squabbles among the disciples.
Hence, Shang Honghua decided to stay. She wanted to climb to the highest position in Three Clarity Daoist Sect to protect her Daoist Brothers and Sisters. Doing so would also be the best reward for Gong Yue, who had been taking care of her the entire time.
Besides, if she left just because of that reason, would it not make her appear weak?
“Sect Leader, is there anything else for your visit?” Gong Yue asked.
She refused to believe that Master Daoist Qing Ling had come here just to tell Shang Honghua that. Any of the elders could have been sent to deliver the same message.
Seeing that the Sect Leader personally made his way here, she suspected that there must be something more important on his mind.
“I would like to see Brother Chu,” Master Daoist Qing Ling said as he looked at one of the rooms nearby.
Gong Yue secretly confirmed her guess. ‘Just as I suspected.’
At that moment, they heard a creak, and the door to that room opened.
“Please enter, Master Daoist Qing Ling.”
Chu Kuangren’s voice came from inside. Clearly, he was not surprised by Master Daoist Qing Ling’s visit. Some could even say that he anticipated it.
