At the end of Hongmeng’s personal letter, he mentioned something.
“Because of the difference in the host’s strength, the Qian cauldron user will be strong when his opponent is strong, and weak when his opponent is weak. However, if one is diligent, he only needs to constantly improve his strength. Use the cauldron more and it will unleash its might one day.”
After reading the letter, Ye Lingyue looked at the cauldron mark on her hand and all sorts of feelings welled up in her heart. She did not expect that this small black cauldron had such an amazing ability.
In those days, Immortal Hongmeng had excellent medical skills and was the best in his field. He even used the Qian cauldron to refine Hongmeng Sanctuary.
In Ye Lingyue’s hands, the Qian cauldron could only purify medicinal liquid. And that was because of her lack of cultivation.
After learning the origin of the Qian cauldron, Ye Lingyue said in her heart that she must not disclose the secrets of the cauldron and Hongmeng Sanctuary in the future unless she had no other choice.
“Squeak.” The little cute dog was pulling Ye Lingyue’s pants leg, motioning her to go to the other hut.
The thatched hut was where Poison Supremacy Jadehand used to live. She was Immortal Hongmeng’s lover. Ye Lingyue went in, and there were also more books inside, but they differed vastly from Immortal Hongmeng’s collection of books.
Poison Supremacy Jadehand’s books were all poison scriptures.
Among them, one book attracted Ye Lingyue’s attention, and it was a secret scripture called ‘The Thirteen Needles of the Otherworld.’
It turned out that ‘The Thirteen Needles of the Otherworld’ was Poison Supremacy Jadehand’s unique skill. It was different from general acupuncture techniques for its main use was to kill. There were a lot of lethal points and harmful effects in the human and animal body recorded in the secret scripture.
“These two old seniors are interesting. One only wants to save people, the other only wants to kill.” Ye Lingyue laughed. She then memorized the mental cultivation method and mantra of the Thirteen Needles of the Otherworld.
For the next ten days, Ye Lingyue stayed in Hongmeng Sanctuary. Every day, she would read the medical books and poison scriptures Immortal Hongmeng and Poison Supremacy Jadehand wrote.
Ye Lingyue had an amazing memory. After reading all those, she had already familiarized everything that was written.
By then she had a general understanding of various medical cases and poisons of the land.
“After reading all the books, it’s time to try how to use psyche.” Ye Lingyue walked out of Hongmeng Sanctuary and went to the green-wood fruit forest she visited before.
According to the records Immortal Hongmeng wrote, she could conclude that he was different from ordinary martial arts practitioners. Not only did he cultivate elementary force, but he also used psyche.
In Hongmeng’s letter, he had written the simplest mantra for the cultivation of the psyche. Ye Lingyue practiced for a while and roughly mastered the basics of psyche.
With the help of the psyche, one could move things from the outside world into Hongmeng Sanctuary.
Ye Lingyue silently chanted ‘Green-wood fruit’ but failed the first time.
She still could not do it the second time.
“I’m too hasty. I should try to move some smaller things into Hongmeng Sanctuary.” Since Ye Lingyue was not in a hurry, she tried to move a leaf, a stone, and then a fruit into Hongmeng Sanctuary.
Two days later, after repeated cultivation, Ye Lingyue could make the large green-wood fruit tree in front of her disappear with a move of her mind.
There was an additional green-wood fruit tree in Hongmeng Sanctuary and it grew lavishly.
“It worked.” Ye Lingyue’s feat was remarkable.
Now that she had moved the green fruit tree into Hongmeng Sanctuary, she would be the only one to supply green-wood fruits in Autumn Maple Town. This was much more valuable than Gathering Elemental herbs!
After using her psyche for a day, Ye Lingyue had moved dozens of green-wood fruit trees around the mountain ridge into Hongmeng Sanctuary. But after doing all those, Ye Lingyue felt severely strained.
“Oh no. The Ye inter-family competition began already.” After she finished everything, Ye Lingyue counted the days she had been in the Seven Star Mountain and realized that it had been more than a month!
In fact, it was already the third day of the competition. Upon this realization, Ye Lingyue was beyond surprised.
The competition was almost coming to an end. If she did not go down the mountain soon, she would lose her bet. With Squeaky tagging along, she hurried down and rushed to the Ye family’s martial arts school.
Inside the Ye family’s martial arts school, the competition had run for three days already.
There were hundreds of the Ye family’s disciples under the age of 20 in the schoolyard, and they all formed a circle.
Ye Fengcheng and other young masters of the main family were all at the side as spectators.
Under several temporary built pergolas, the head of the Ye family and several elders were sitting on the wooden armchairs.
With eyes blazing, they directed their attention to the competition happening inside the ring.
The Ye inter-family competition happens once every three years. Young men and women from the main family or side family branches could take part in the competition. They regarded those who could climb up the top ten ranks as elite disciples of the Ye family. With that, they would get more resources and martial arts skills more than the others in the future.
Those that land in the top three of the competition could enter the Ye family’s martial arts temple to choose a basic martial arts skill. They considered it a great honor if one could enter the tower as an elite disciple of the Ye family.
Ye Lingyue’s mother, Ye Fengyu, passed the competition and won first place at 13 years of age.
Because Ye Lingyue was mentally impaired in her early years, she never had the chance to take part in the competition. This was her first inter-family competition.
