Chapter 174 of "I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors?" opens showing suspense: [“Ding, your disciple Ye Beixuan has successfully entered the introductory stage of the Hongmeng Creation... Continue the adventure!

[“Ding, your disciple Ye Beixuan has successfully entered the introductory stage of the Hongmeng Creation Technique and broken through a minor realm. Rewarding the host with mastery of the Hongmeng Creation Technique and ten years of cultivation.”] Early morning. Chu Feng was still immersed in a sweet dream when a familiar voice abruptly woke him. He leapt up from his bed, checked his dantian with his divine sense, and was shocked to find a thumb-thick stream of Hongmeng purple qi swirling within. This stream of purple qi seemed alive, flowing actively inside his dantian. Wherever it passed, his spiritual power became noticeably more refined. Chu Feng, who normally disliked cultivation, astonishingly sat down cross-legged and began refining the purple qi to cleanse his body. Several hours later, he opened his eyes, feeling his spiritual power more potent than ever before. "Didn’t expect that brat Beixuan to grow so fast. I thought it’d take at least two and a half years for him to condense a wisp of Hongmeng purple qi. As expected of the disciple I chose." Muttering to himself, Chu Feng tidied his clothes and walked out into the courtyard. Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, at Ziyun Valley in the Cloudmist Mountains— Ye Beixuan bowed respectfully to Xiao Chen. "Many thanks, Senior Brother, for protecting me. May I ask where you plan to go next?" Xiao Chen smiled. "No need for such formality. We share the same master—protecting you was only natural. I’m planning to tour the Eastern Sea with Junior Sister Liu." Ye Beixuan’s eyes lit up. "Are you perhaps going to attend the once-in-a-century Penglai Sword Debate?" Xiao Chen paused at the mention of "Sword Debate" and said with a bit of surprise, "I hadn’t thought of that. I just wanted to see the ocean. But since there's a Sword Debate, I might as well take a look. Tell me, Junior Brother, what are the requirements for it?" Ye Beixuan explained calmly, "The Penglai Sword Debate is a grand event among the thousand islands of the Eastern Sea. Even the Dragon Palace sends their dragon clan prodigies to participate. Every time, the top ten are allowed to visit Sword God's Cliff to comprehend the sword dao of the Penglai Sword God." "So that’s why it’s not very well known." Xiao Chen replied with indifference. ??? Ye Beixuan stared at him in disbelief. "Senior Brother, aren’t you even a little interested in the Sword God’s legacy?" "Do you want it?" Xiao Chen didn’t answer directly but asked instead. Ye Beixuan instinctively nodded, then shook his head. "I’d be lying if I said no. But since I follow Master’s path of the Hongmeng Creation Technique, it doesn’t align well. Otherwise, I might’ve competed for it." After all, the Sword God was someone he had looked up to even in his past life. Xiao Chen laughed. "Just a Sword God legacy? If you want one, I can give you one." Ye Beixuan: "..." Even after two lifetimes and all the grand scenes he had witnessed, Senior Brother’s casualness still stunned him beyond words. Even in his past life, if someone acquired the Sword God legacy, they wouldn’t easily give it away. Before Ye Beixuan could even recover, Xiao Chen tossed him a jade slip. "This is the Sword God inheritance I found in the Taixu Secret Realm—‘Slaughter God Sword Dao.’ I casually recorded a few copies. If you’re interested, take a look." Ye Beixuan instinctively inserted his divine sense into the jade slip. It really was the legendary Slaughter God Sword Dao. In his past life, it was discovered by a rogue cultivator three hundred years later in the Taixu Secret Realm. Fearing pursuit, the rogue recorded it on a jade slip and gave it to a disciple of a major sect. Wendao Academy received one copy, and Ye Beixuan, being in a high position at the time, was fortunate enough to see it. That rogue cultivator later became a Nirvana Realm powerhouse thanks to this sword dao and earned the title of "Slaughter Sword King." He never imagined that in this lifetime, it had already fallen into Xiao Chen’s hands. "Senior Brother, this... this is a Sword God inheritance!" Xiao Chen casually replied, "Yeah, too bad it’s too weak compared to my Invincible Sword Dao. I declined that senior’s goodwill. If there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave." "Safe travels, Senior Brother." Ye Beixuan held the jade slip in his hand, watching Xiao Chen's figure gradually fade into the distance. He couldn't help but murmur, "Invincible Sword Dao... a true man should be like that!" After his sigh of admiration, Ye Beixuan began to reflect: where exactly had things gone wrong in this lifetime? He was also a disciple of their master, and he had the memories of two lifetimes. So why was he still lagging behind his senior brothers and sisters? After a long while, his eyes suddenly widened—he had figured it out. "I understand now. Beauties are the standard configuration of the strong. Master has Elder Bing at his side, Senior Brother Xiao has Senior Sister Liu, Second Senior Brother has Senior Sister Song, and Fourth Senior Brother is always with Senior Sister Nangong. I may not be obsessed with women, but I must have a beauty by my side." As he finished speaking, the image of a gentle and refined girl surfaced in his mind. ‘Sister Qiong’er, before you officially join Wendao Academy, I will make my name shake the entire academy!’ Ye Beixuan steadied his emotions, then decided to return to Wendao Academy. This trip had already been a fruitful one—it was time to prepare for the outer sect competition. ... At Wendao Academy, on Miao Miao Mountain. For nearly a year, the atmosphere had been strange—during the day, hardly a soul could be seen. But once night fell, it became lively. Every evening, Chu Feng would drink with Nie Xiuyuan and Xu Caichen. Once the drinks started flowing, the three would begin composing poetry and trading verses. This was a scene Elder Bing had never anticipated, and she secretly worried for Chu Feng in her heart. That night, after drinking, Chu Feng returned to find Elder Bing had thoughtfully prepared sobering tea and hot water for soaking his feet. Chu Feng had long gotten used to this. After sipping the tea, he removed his shoes and socks and dipped his feet into the hot water. So comfortable... Elder Bing looked at his relaxed expression and cautiously asked, "Sir, have you been slacking off a little too much lately?" Chu Feng slowly opened his eyes at her words and smiled. "You're mistaken. I'm merely following my heart. You could even consider this a form of cultivation." Elder Bing was briefly stunned. "Drinking and merrymaking every day is cultivation?" "You’re focusing on the wrong part. What I mean is—following one’s heart." As he spoke, he took another sip of tea. "For those of us who cultivate the Dao, what matters most is clarity of the heart. Only then can cultivation proceed smoothly, without obstacles or inner demons." Though she was a Nirvana Realm cultivator, Elder Bing began to reflect seriously upon hearing this. "Clarity of heart is easy to say, but difficult to achieve in practice." Chu Feng laughed. "That’s why I choose to follow my heart. Everything I do is according to what I feel. In this life, I’ve never sought lofty goals. I just want to drink the strongest wine, ride the fastest horses, and—" He held back and didn’t finish the last word. Elder Bing noticed his sudden pause and asked curiously, "Sir, is there something you can’t say? Or something I shouldn’t hear?" Chu Feng shrugged. "Let’s just say... all I want in life is to fall asleep on a beauty’s lap." Elder Bing instantly blushed at his words and fell silent. Meanwhile, Nie Xiuyuan and Xu Caichen had returned to their separate courtyards, and, still tipsy from the wine, began their nightly cultivation... ==================================================================================== Get access to 20 chapters in advance and enjoy 2 daily updates by supporting the series.
