Chapter 189: Chapter 188 "Vast Qi"Eh?!" "Ye Xuan..., Sir?!" Jiang Jing and Qiu Wenhan, upon hearing Xu Jiu’s address, were suddenly bewildered. "What? You don’t recognize the sir?" Xu Jiu, seeing the looks on Jiang Jing and Qiu Wenhan’s faces, couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, "With his strength, his status within the sect should be quite high, right?" "No, no." The two then came around, with a storm of shock surging in their hearts. What had Ye Xuan done last night in the Artifact Refining Hall, and why did Old Master Jiu respect Ye Xuan so much, even using such a formal address?! Others might not know, but Qiu Wenhan certainly did. Back when Old Master Jiu was famous around the Tianqing Mountain Range, someone had forcibly come to the Emperor Immortal Sect demanding artifact refining, only to be beaten into a hasty retreat by Old Master Jiu’s bronze divine puppet and later torn apart. Since then, the name of Old Master Jiu had been both respected and feared. At that time, the Artifact Refining Hall was still operational, and Old Master Jiu was very strict with its disciples, causing many in the Artifact Refining Hall to suffer bitterly. Additionally, as the Emperor Immortal Sect gradually declined, Old Master Jiu’s temper worsened, leading to fewer and fewer disciples joining the Artifact Refining Hall. Eventually, the Artifact Refining Hall emptied out, and Old Master Jiu completely disappeared. Now, Old Master Jiu had reappeared, still with limitless authority. Yet Old Master Jiu, referring to a junior with such respect, was truly beyond Qiu Wenhan’s expectations. "Could it be because last night he mentioned calling him Ancestor Master, and even Master wouldn’t dare to respond..." said Jiang Jing, her expression strange, remembering what Ye Xuan had said last night. From Xu Jiu’s words, it was clear he held great respect for Ye Xuan. In such a situation, if Ye Xuan were to call Xu Jiu ’Ancestor Master,’ Xu Jiu might have had to kneel down on the spot. "Ye Xuan has gone to preach," Jiang Jing reported truthfully. "You are..." Xu Jiu frowned slightly, looking at Jiang Jing with some confusion. "I am the granddaughter-in-law of Grandfather Zhou Yutian, Jiang Jing; Zhou Zihuang is my husband," Jiang Jing explained. "I see," Xu Jiu realized, exclaiming, "That guy Zhou Yutian’s grandchild has already ascended to the position of Sect Master." "And Mr. Ye Xuan?" Xu Jiu inquired. "Ye Xuan is my son-in-law," Jiang Jing stated truthfully. "What?!" Xu Jiu choked, giving Jiang Jing a weird look, "Mr. Ye Xuan..., is your son-in-law?!" Jiang Jing dared not conceal the truth, stating, "Indeed, it is so." Xu Jiu looked puzzled, recalling Ye Xuan’s appearance and thought to himself: It seems Mr. Ye Xuan is truly young, not just appearing young... Odd, odd, how could someone so young master the technique of refining Silver Divine Puppets and possess the ability of miraculous transmission? Xu Jiu was puzzled beyond comprehension. "By the way, elder uncle, Ye Xuan also holds two other identities," Qiu Wenhan stated. "Tell me." Xu Jiu directed. "He is the current Chief Disciple of our sect, and he is also our sect’s..." "Resurgence Master!" Qiu Wenhan declared solemnly. "Resurgence Master?" Xu Jiu was puzzled, "Is he the successor to the next Sect Master?" "Not in that sense," Qiu Wenhan shook his head solemnly, "He is the chosen one by the Ancestor Master, holding the power of the Lie Tian Ancestor Temple!" "What?!" Xu Jiu abruptly stood up, his eyes flashing fiercely, his face full of astonishment. "The power of the Lie Tian Ancestor Temple!" Xu Jiu faced the direction of the Lie Tian Ancestor Temple, his turbid old eyes brimming with tears. "Is our Emperor Immortal Sect finally going to rise again?" Xu Jiu bowed deeply towards the Lie Tian Ancestor Temple with trembling reverence. "Quick, tell me, what other unique powers does Mr. Ye Xuan have?" Xu Jiu’s tears streamed freely, but even more so, he was excited as he looked towards Qiu Wenhan. Seeing the tears of Xu Jiu, Qiu Wenhan’s emotions were mixed, but he still listed out the miracles created by Ye Xuan one by one truthfully. After listening, Xu Jiu sat in his chair, overwhelmed for a long time. "Mr. Ye Xuan, to have such capabilities!" "Why should our sect worry about not rising again!" Xu Jiu sighed deeply, his eyes full of excitement. "Today, the Artifact Refining Hall is reopened!" "Fire up the furnaces!" Xu Jiu declared loudly. "Yes, elder uncle!" Qiu Wenhan was also incredibly excited. Today, the Emperor Immortal Sect’s Artifact Refining Hall was officially reopened. Still managed by Xu Jiu, the hall began recruiting disciples. All ten top-tier Melting Furnaces were placed within the Artifact Refining Hall. Meanwhile. Lie Tian Dao Ground. This time, only five hundred disciples came, among which three hundred were those who participated in the exchange conference the day before. The other two hundred disciples were from Xuanyuan Peak. The five hundred people sat in vast numbers in the Lie Tian Daoist grounds, looking up at Ye Xuan, who sat above on the high platform of the Lie Tian Daoist grounds, with respect and a hint of curiosity. Sёarᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Honestly, they were also curious about how well their eldest senior brother could lecture. Lecturing was different from fighting enemies; it required an understanding of the Dao and insights into cultivation. Compared to when Leng Yifan had lectured, it now seemed quite modest. You must understand, when Leng Yifan lectured back then, there were often tens of thousands of disciples from the Nine Peaks and some didn’t even have slots to attend. In contrast, for Ye Xuan’s lecture, it was said any disciple could come, but only five hundred showed up. Nevertheless, the disciples who came to the Lie Tian Daoist grounds respected Ye Xuan and did not come to cause trouble. Everyone sat quietly, waiting for Ye Xuan to begin. "Five hundred people, that’s about right." Ye Xuan said as he opened his eyes, noticing only about five hundred disciples, which was not surprising to him. After all, this was his first lecture, so it was normal not to have many attendees. "Today, I will talk to you all about the ’Vast Qi’." Ye Xuan spoke slowly. "’Vast Qi’?" The crowd murmured, momentarily stunned, then felt curious. The ’Vast Qi’ was a cultivation technique practiced by all disciples within the inner sect of the Emperor Immortal Sect, and every disciple present had practiced it. This could be said to be the foundational cultivation technique for every disciple of the Emperor Immortal Sect. Contained within ’Vast Qi’ were mental methods, Daoist techniques, Divine Skills, and moves, involving many aspects. But each aspect was only basic. Plainly speaking, this technique was used to lay the foundation for all disciples. Many disciples, after practicing ’Vast Qi’, would switch to other cultivation techniques. Today, hearing that Ye Xuan would lecture on ’Vast Qi’, many disciples became curious. "As for this technique, it has been established for countless generations, and its origins are difficult to trace, but what I can tell you is..." "Lie Tian Great Emperor, Xuanyuan Sword Emperor, and others, all practiced this technique." Ye Xuan said, swallowing and breathing evenly. "Even our ancestor mastered it?" This suddenly surprised many people. "Of course, not only them, but also the Double Emperors who reached the peak nine thousand years ago, and even emperors who once dominated an era in history, all had practiced it." Ye Xuan nodded. "That powerful?!" The crowd was filled with incredulity. The basic cultivation technique they practiced had been practiced by so many significant figures? Why hadn’t they felt anything special? "Of course, ’Vast Qi’ was only one of the reasons they became emperors, not the only one." Ye Xuan said with a smile. ’Vast Qi’, in fact, was passed down by him. This foundational technique, encompassing mental methods, Daoist techniques, Divine Skills, and moves, was most suited for laying a foundation. However, because this technique was too smooth, very few people had the patience to practice it. In all eternity, almost every disciple Ye Xuan took under his wing practiced ’Vast Qi’. Back then, due to things such as Lie Tian Great Emperor and others entering the Emperor’s Burial Ground, Ye Xuan stayed in the Emperor Immortal Sect for a hundred years and eventually left ’Vast Qi’ behind for every disciple in the Emperor Immortal Sect to practice. It was a way to make amends to the Emperor Immortal Sect. Unfortunately, those who actually achieved mastery of ’Vast Qi’ were almost nonexistent. The decline of the Emperor Immortal Sect was such that no one even competed for ’Vast Qi’. This sufficiently illustrated the mediocrity of ’Vast Qi’. However, every sect master of the Emperor Immortal Sect conscientiously continued following the ancestral teachings, requiring every disciple to practice ’Vast Qi’. Thus, there arose the affair of every disciple from the Nine Peaks practicing ’Vast Qi’. "Previously an elder mentioned, ’Vast Qi’ is so mediocre that one must switch to other cultivation techniques upon reaching the Inscriptions Realm; does Elder Brother know about this?" A disciple from the Inscriptions Realm inquired. Hearing this, Ye Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Being able to say such things shows that elder fully missed the essence of ’Vast Qi’." "Suppose, the elder you mentioned, has he passed away?" Ye Xuan added meaningfully. That disciple gave an awkward smile and said no more. Indeed, that elder had already died. Because that elder was the previous Great Elder. In the recent rebellion, he was killed by a slap from Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan looked around, gathered his thoughts, and slowly said, "I will begin now."
