My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

This was one of the most annoying things about the Tianque Sect for Xu Fan. Even a small peak like him would be carefully scanned by some powerful cultivators. At first, he thought that they had discovered his abnormalities, but later he found out that everyone was treated the same way.

After complaining, Xu Fan took out the borrowed Technique Jade Slips and began pondering on them, which was one of his hobbies—learning new techniques and then deconstructing and creating new ones.

What other cultivators considered impossible seemed as simple as eating and drinking to him.

“Soul-collecting Technique, collects the essence of demon beasts’ souls.”

“Soul-preservation Technique, maintains the vitality and wisdom of external souls.”

“Earth Attribute Shaping Technique, can shape various forms.”

“These three techniques are interesting. If combined properly, can they form a Summoning Technique?”

“Summoning Technique, the Soul-preservation Technique can only maintain the soul’s activity for a short time. If you want to maintain it for a long time, you must have the most suitable vessel.”

“But a suitable vessel for soul-parasitism, I can’t fucking afford.”

“Stuck, first learn Alchemy Technique well, earn Spirit Stones and then see.”

Xu Fan reluctantly put down the three Jade Slips in his hand, the imagined Summoning Technique seemed a bit expensive.

At this moment, a flock of sparrows flew by in the sky.

Xu Fan reached out and grabbed one, the sparrow lost its soul and plunged to the ground.

A small translucent sparrow appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.

“Sparrow, give yourself up for science.”

A fragment of the soul was slowly separated by Xu Fan, and a small clump of mud from the earth appeared in his hand.

The clump of mud and the sparrow’s split soul merged, and in the blink of an eye, a small mud statue of the sparrow appeared.

Xu Fan looked at the brown mud statue, shook his head, and drew a bit of other substances from the earth and merged it into the mud.

A ball of fire appeared, surrounding the mud statue.

A moment later, a roasted ceramic sparrow appeared in Xu Fan’s hand.

“This should be fine, right?”

As he spoke, he injected the sparrow’s soul into the ceramic sparrow’s interior.

“This should be fine, right?”

As he spoke, a hint of spiritual light flickered on his fingertips, lightly touching the head of the roasted ceramic sparrow.

In an instant, the roasted ceramic sparrow seemed to be reborn, joyfully flapping its wings and dancing around Xu Fan.

“The effect looks pretty good, but I don’t know how it will react to the souls of demonic beasts.” Xu Fan rubbed his chin and said.

At this moment, the ceramic sparrow in the sky suddenly stiffened, lost its vitality, and plunged straight down to the ground.

“Failed, I always feel like I’m missing something, I’ll go to the Scripture Pavilion another day for some inspiration.”

Meanwhile, Wang Yulun, who was on a mission outside the sect, was shocked as he looked at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Level demonic beast he killed with one technique.

“One move, just one move.” Wang Yulun looked at the hole pierced through the head of the demonic beast by the Fire Spear Technique and muttered to himself, he could hardly believe it.

Ever since he got the two techniques from his good big brother, he had been studying them overnight.

The Lightweight Feather Wind Riding Technique, in his opinion, was a deep combination of the Light Body Technique and the Wind Riding Technique, merging the two techniques into one, so he didn’t have to use it simultaneously, saving effort and worry.

After looking through it once, Wang Yulun felt that with this technique, he dared to say that no one could catch up with him in the Qi Cultivation level.

Fire Spear Technique, this was a spell that he couldn’t resist, as if it was tailor-made for him.

At first, he thought the power of this technique would be great, but Wang Yulun didn’t expect it to be so powerful, killing a Sixth Level of Qi Cultivation demonic beast in one strike.

At this moment, the senior brother who was on the mission with him came over with a Snow Fox, saying as he walked, “That kid better not be eaten by a demonic beast, otherwise it would be a bit troublesome.”

In the Tianque Sect, after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, one must go through various tests during the Qi Refining Stage to enter the Battle Hall.

The tests of the Battle Hall have the highest death rate in the Tianque Sect, with a death rate of one in ten.

“My God! Is this a one-hit kill?”

Wang Yulun’s senior brother looked at the penetrating wound on the demon beast’s head in shock, then glanced at the calm and composed Wang Yulun.

“Will our Battle Hall have another A-Class rating big shot?” the senior brother muttered.

The Battle Hall’s rating system was divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D. D level was unqualified, C level in the Battle Hall could only be considered as cannon fodder, and B level would be the main force for cultivation.

As for A-Class, they would be trained as future top combatants by the whole sect, most importantly, they would be taught personally by Void Refining Experts, with the top resources and teachers.

This was a place where everyone in the Battle Hall dreamed of going.

“Senior Brother, why are you so surprised?” Wang Yulun said indifferently, but he was quite pleased in his heart.

“It’s nothing, just sighing at the amazing combat strength of my junior fellow. A one-hit kill on a Sixth Level of Qi Cultivation demonic beast.”

“Junior Fellow, defeating opponents of higher levels can be rated up to B level.”

“But to be rated A-Class, you need to fight across levels.”

“With your current combat strength, if you put in more effort and kill ten demonic beasts above the Seventh Level of Qi Cultivation alone, you will be rated A-Class.”

“When that time comes, after you enter the A-Class Hall, don’t forget about your Senior Brother.” Wang Yulun’s senior brother patiently said to Wang Yulun.

“How could I, I haven’t even thanked Senior Brother for recommending me.” Wang Yulun said earnestly.

“Haha, it’s just a small favor, Junior Fellow, you are too polite.” Senior Brother waved his hand and then said seriously: “Junior Fellow, now let’s go back and turn in the mission.”

“For the remaining time, you should focus on practicing your offensive techniques, and in the future, I hope to see you in the A-Class Hall.”

Wang Yulun’s senior brother thought to himself that if he really entered the A-Class Hall, the reward for his recommendation alone might be enough to exchange for two Foundation Establishment Pills, and his heart became even more excited.

“Thank you for the advice, Senior Brother.” Wang Yulun said.

Subsequently, the two of them activated their cultivation techniques and headed towards the Tianque Sect.

In the evening, Xu Fan looked at the excited Wang Yulun and said strangely, “Is it strange to kill a Sixth Level demonic beast in one strike?”

“Fire Spear Technique has a calming effect in the final activation stage, helping you aim and ensuring accurate strikes.”

“It would be strange not to have a one-hit kill under such circumstances.”

Xu Fan said calmly, not even pausing the flipping of the roasted demon beast meat in his hand. He casually controlled a small ball of sesame seeds with his spiritual power, sprinkling it evenly and then applying a layer of honey afterwards.

Suddenly, an enchanting aroma of roasted meat spread through the air.

At this moment, Wang Yulun still hadn’t recovered from his excitement.

“Brother Xu, why don’t you join the Battle Hall with me?”

“Relying on your strength, you will definitely be valued by the sect’s elders, and in the A-Class Hall, there will be Void Refining Experts for guidance.” Wang Yulun waved his hands excitedly as he described the beautiful future scene to Xu Fan.

“Fighting and killing is not good, not to mention the high death rate, but also inferior to top Alchemy Masters and Artifact Refinement Masters.”

Another reason was that after cultivating to the 12th level of Qi Cultivation, he could only break through at the last day of the Great Limit, so entering the A-Class Hall would only be a temporary glory.

It would be better to keep a low profile from the beginning.
