—------------------—
Years came and went, and three years passed in a flash.
The Yuntian Mountain Range was still covered in white snow, with layers upon layers of accumulated snow, and the only constant was the howling wind and snow in the valley.
"Clap—"
In a secret room within the Body Sect, Chen Yi gently closed the «Fisman Family's Thirty-Four Forms» he was holding, rubbed his eyes, and then put it back in its original place.
Since the Sect Master ordered him to enter the Body Sect Secret Grounds to study three years ago, Chen Yi had spent almost every day in the "Library."
He spent nearly a year reading all the books in the "Library," and then moved his exclusive small stool to the Body Sect Secret Grounds.
Of course, this attitude of not treating home as home naturally aroused the strong dissatisfaction of the Family Master, to the extent that Chen Yi's ears during that period were directly comparable to Hu Tu Tu's.
However, after the strong cultivators from the Sect brought back many resources from the ocean, our Family Master Mu Xi also began to enter a long period of Cultivation, which greatly reduced Chen Yi's survival pressure.
It is worth mentioning that just two years ago, Second Elder Yuan Hua, who had been stuck at rank eighty-nine for nearly twenty years, finally broke through the barrier of rank ninety and obtained his ninth spirit ring, becoming the Body Sect's third Titled Douluo, with the title: "Brain."
Yuan Hua's Breakthrough plunged the Body Sect into a sea of joy, which meant that the Body Sect had truly reached the level of the Upper Three Sects in terms of high-end combat power, becoming a top Spirit Master's world force standing at the pinnacle of the Spirit Master's world.
On the Douluo Continent, possessing a Titled Douluo was just one criterion for whether a force could become a top force; in addition, overall strength was also a standard for measuring the strength of a force.
Chen Yi later learned that among the Seven Great Sects, it wasn't only the Upper Three Sects that had Titled Douluo; the Wind Sword Sect among the Lower Four Sects also had a Titled Douluo, but besides that Wind Sword Douluo, the Wind Sword Sect only had one low-level Spirit Douluo whose Lifespan was nearing its end, so it was not enough to contend with the Upper Three Sects.
In fact, in terms of overall strength, it was even weaker than the Sacred Dragon Sect—the Sacred Dragon Sect had five Spirit Douluo, and its Sect Master was only half a step away from becoming a Titled Douluo.
And the Upper Three Sects not only had Titled Douluo, but also a considerable number of top strong cultivators beneath them. Even the lowest-ranked Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had no less than six Spirit Douluo, truly possessing astonishing foundations.
Not long after Yuan Hua's Breakthrough, many other Body Sect strong cultivators, such as Huang Qiyi and Zhang Tao, also successively broke through to Spirit Douluo, and their high-end combat power already rivaled the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Of course, their overall strength was still somewhat inferior, after all, that was the "Richest Sect Under Heaven."
It can be said that in these three years, the entire Body Sect showed a thriving scene. At this rate, within twenty years, the Body Sect could completely surpass the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and become the undisputed uncrowned king of all Sects.
"After Spirit Douluo, every step forward is a consumption of potential. Even a top trunk Spirit like my father, with a silver-level second Awakening, only barely broke through to rank eighty-six with the help of whale glue. And even this was called divine speed by Sect Master Granduncle."
"How did those old guys from the Clear Sky Sect, whose potential was exhausted, break through to Titled Douluo?"
This was Chen Yi's biggest doubt in recent years. When the Clear Sky Sect appeared in the original work, the five Elders were all Titled Douluo. However, in these past few years, when Chen Yi consulted with the Grand Elder, he learned that:
Those old fellows from the Clear Sky Sect were contemporaries of the previous Sect Master Tang Xing, all around ninety years old, and their Qi and blood had long since weakened to an unseemly state. If they didn't have some great Opportunity in this life, there was no hope of further progress.
If that was the case, how did they manage it?
It's no wonder Chen Yi was curious. The Body Sect's strength had expanded rapidly in recent years, and it would definitely emerge within ten years at most.
After all, the Body Sect was founded on the Body Martial Soul. If it didn't emerge, it wouldn't be able to gather all the Body Martial Soul Spirit Masters in the world for its own use.
Then, the Clear Sky Sect would inevitably be an unavoidable point. Since the Body Sect was emerging with the goal of becoming the number one Sect in the world, how could the Clear Sky Sect's overbearing individuals tolerate this at that time? The two sides would inevitably have a confrontation.
As for letting the Body Sect back down, Chen Yi had never even considered it.
What a joke? The Body Sect was founded on the so-called 'Wasted Martial Soul' (waste Spirit) Body Martial Soul, and after eight hundred years of stormy existence, it still stood tall. How could its inherent pride be compared to upstarts like the Clear Sky Sect?
"After the Awakening of my Spirit, some matters can officially be put on the agenda," Chen Yi thought to himself.
As Chen Yi was contemplating, a thin figure walked towards him. Seeing Chen Yi, a smile appeared on his stiff face.
"Yi'er, what book did you read today?"
The person who came was none other than the Grand Elder of the Body Sect, Brain Douluo Yuan Hua. Since Chen Yi moved into the Body Sect Secret Grounds, the old man and the young boy had almost made this place their home. Chen Yi prepared a small stool for himself, and the Grand Elder directly placed a bed here!
"Fourth Grandfather, I just read «Fisman Family's Thirty-Four Forms»."
"The Fisman Family's self-created Spirit Ability? That thing has no value. It's an old antique from thousands of years ago. Many of the techniques were good back then, but they are long outdated now. The Fisman Family's good-for-nothing descendants didn't even think about changing them a bit; they just stuck to the same old three things."
"Instead of reading those things, you might as well eat two more snow beef legs to build up your strength for tomorrow's Spirit Awakening."
Yuan Hua clearly looked down on the Fisman Family's self-created Spirit Ability, but it was understandable. After all, he had extremely high attainments in self-created Spirit Abilities, and currently, one-fifth of the Body Sect's self-created Spirit Abilities were contributed by him.
If he hadn't been obsessed with this in his early years, his current strength might not be inferior to Chu Shanhe's.
Previously, Chen Yi had only heard about his talent from his parents but had no direct concept of it.
It wasn't until these past two years, when he tried to "accidentally" think of and speak out some martial arts concepts he found online in his previous life, and this person actually reverse-engineered many self-created Spirit Abilities that fit the Body Martial Soul, that Chen Yi truly understood what it meant to be terrifyingly powerful!
Also, because of his deep development of the Body Martial Soul, after breaking through to Titled Douluo, he reached rank ninety-three in just two short years, only half a rank behind Hua Shuwen, Second Elder, titled 'Jade Skin', who had broken through ten years earlier.
According to Chen Yi's guess, his development of the Brain Spirit was even comparable to Han Tianyi, the Illusory Brain Douluo, twenty thousand years later.
"I'm just bored and passing the time!" Chen Yi said with a chuckle.
"Hmm, it's almost mealtime. Do you want to join this old man for a bite? I brought Devil Spirit Great White Shark brain, good stuff!"
"That's really too bad. My mother started cooking this morning. If I don't eat, I'll have to be carried to my Spirit Awakening tomorrow."
Chen Yi spread his hands, showing a look of regret.
"Then you, my boy, are out of luck today!" Hearing this, Yuan Hua was also amused and laughed heartily, waving his hand and saying, "Then hurry back, lest little Mu Xi comes to catch you here."
"How dare my mother? You are the Body Sect's pillar of strength, our unshakeable foundation!" Hearing Yuan Hua's words, Chen Yi shamelessly flattered him.
"Hahaha! You, my boy, certainly know how to talk." Yuan Hua lightly patted Chen Yi's small head.
"How could I not? Ask anyone in the Sect, who doesn't admire you from the bottom of their heart?"
"Then hurry back and eat. This old man won't keep you."
"Goodbye, Fourth Grandfather!"
