Chapter 186: The Last Finger Technique
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and half a month’s time was gone.
In a few days, it would be his goddaughter’s full moon banquet, but Ye Xiao’s last finger technique still had no progress.
However, as each cultivation technique was very difficult to find at the end, Ye Xiao was not in a hurry. He just slowly and gradually progressed.
Ye Xiao was prepared to see if he could synthesize imperial techniques after reaching Xiantian ninth grade. If he could synthesize imperial techniques, he would not continue to look at these low-level cultivation techniques in the future. Instead, he would think of ways to find other imperial techniques.
That was because only imperial techniques could help him improve the fastest.
That involved a problem, and that was whether he would have to leave the martial arts library at that time.
At the very least, the martial arts library in Jianghai city would not be able to do so.
There were simply too few high-level cultivation techniques here, especially the imperial technique. There was not a single book.
How would that play out?
However, even the top libraries in those large cities did not seem to have many imperial cultivation techniques. The true imperial cultivation techniques were usually hidden in those top-tier aristocratic families.
Ye Xiao could not possibly go and snatch them one by one.
Then there was only one way to go. Go to the space battlefield and kill star beasts. Then, obtain the imperial techniques from the star beasts with dragon-class bloodlines and complete the further synthesis!
Anyway, the cultivation would not stop. Ye Xiao had to make himself the strongest!
So strong that no one could compete with him.
“You’re reading again!”
Just as Ye Xiao was reading, Liu Chengxun’s voice was heard.
Ye Xiao had already sensed him coming over, so he was not surprised at all.
“I have nothing to do. I’m just reading to pass the time.”
Liu Chengxun glanced at the book he was reading. It was a lesser grandmaster-level finger technique that was not even a grandmaster-level technique. Such a technique would naturally not catch his eye.
“I see that you read a lot of books, and they are very miscellaneous. If you can remember all of them and master them, you can consider becoming a theoretical professor.”
In that world, a professor did not necessarily have to know martial arts. If one had rich knowledge in martial arts, they could also become a professor.
Ye Xiao shook his head.
“Forget it. I’m just casually flipping through them. It’s purely to kill time. If I really had to use my brain to memorize them, I definitely wouldn’t be able to do it.”
Liu Chengxun smiled.
“If you don’t give it a try, how do you know if you can do it or not?”
After a pause, he spoke again,
“Oh right, speaking of which, you’ve been in Jianghai city for so long. Have you seen that Senior Saber-sword Immortal?”
Ye Xiao shook his head.
Liu Chengxun laughed at himself.
“I’m really confused. Senior Saber-sword Immortal is so elusive. I haven’t even seen him. How can an ordinary person like you be able to see him?”
Immediately after, he seemed to have sensed that his tone was a little off, so he immediately apologized.
“Sorry, my words were a little overboard.”
“It doesn’t matter. After all, you’re a divine grandmaster to begin with, and I’m indeed an ordinary person.”
Seeing that Ye Xiao did not mind, Liu Chengxun could not help but sigh with emotion.
“You don’t know that I’ve never admired people in my life.
“Half a month ago, the Saber-sword Immortal once appeared in the mountains. I looked at him from afar. He was like an invincible god of war, standing high in the sky and cleaving apart the clouds with a sword.
“I dare to say that even a Xiantian eighth-grade divine grandmaster like me would be reduced to ashes under that sword.
“He was too strong and too dazzling. He was like a sun, causing people to involuntarily feel admiration and desire to meet him once more.
“I worship him too much.”
Ye Xiao looked at Liu Chengxun’s infatuated gaze and could not help but raise his brows.
Actually, logically speaking, Ye Xiao should be happy to be so revered by a divine grandmaster no matter what. However, Ye Xiao did not feel anything at all. He even felt like vomiting in his stomach.
Perhaps it was because Liu Chengxun was a man, and he was also a man in his forties.
If Liu Chengxun did not appear in front of him and acted so affectionately, Ye Xiao could still accept it.
However, in front of him, he was like a star chaser. Ye Xiao really could not bear to hear him speak so affectionately.
However, he still politely responded.
“Then I wish you to meet your idol as soon as possible.”
Liu Chengxun was in a great mood, and his gaze was firm as he said,
“I will definitely find him. I’ve decided that I will stay here for a year. Within a year, I will definitely be able to find the Senior Saber-sword Immortal.”
Ye Xiao was silent for a moment.
“Aren’t you a little too confident in your thoughts? The nine provinces have already been looking for him for an entire year. Are you sure that you can find him?”
Liu Chengxun was stunned.
“The nine provinces have been looking for him for an entire year?”
Ye Xiao nodded.
“From the moment they found out about the Saber-sword Immortal, they started looking for him. Until now, there hasn’t been a single trace of him.”
After saying that, he saw that Liu Chengxun’s expression was becoming more and more serious.
That caused the corners of Ye Xiao’s mouth to involuntarily curl up a little. Very good. That way, that fellow should know when to retreat and choose to leave Jianghai city, right?
However, in the next second, Liu Chengxun said with a serious expression,
“Alright, looks like Senior Saber-sword Immortal is indeed not that easy to find! Since that’s the case, I’ve decided that I’ll stay here for two years. Within two years, I’ll definitely be able to find Senior Saber-sword Immortal.”
“…”
If he had known earlier, he would not have said anything.
Originally, the other party might have left because of disappointment within a year. Now, it was fine. He directly added another year, becoming two years.
When he thought of the two years that he would have to listen to an uncle in his forties express his admiration for him from time to time, Ye Xiao felt uncomfortable all over!
He could only wish that he could advance to Xiantian ninth grade as soon as possible and synthesize the imperial techniques.
After synthesizing the imperial techniques, he would not have to stay in that library all the time.
“This finger technique of yours is only at the lesser grandmaster level. Actually, its power isn’t that great. However, I’m a swordsman, so I don’t have any finger techniques that I can show you.
“However, I seem to have a few finger techniques over there. If you’re interested, you can go over and look for them yourself.”
“Is that so? Then I’ll go and take a look now.”
It was very difficult to find the last different basic finger technique in the books on Ye Xiao’s side. The books on finger techniques were almost finished by him. Since Liu Chengxun had them, he could also go over and take a look.
He went to Liu Chengxun’s area. Unexpectedly, Liu Chengxun’s area was wiped clean.
It seemed that Liu Chengxun was quite hardworking in his efforts to find him.
Even being a librarian here was so serious.
What was even more unexpected was that Piao Jiansheng was also here, with a large pile of books in front of him.
“You’re here too.”
Ye Xiao greeted him. Piao Jiansheng raised his head, waved his hand, and then lowered his head to read.
Liu Chengxun explained,
“He has now applied for the transfer of his citizenship back to nine provinces, and he has succeeded. In the future, he will be a native of nine provinces. Now, he has joined Jianghai Martial Arts Academy and is preparing to take the teaching teacher qualification certificate.”
“He also wants to be a teacher!”
“I was the one who suggested that he become a teacher. In fact, being a teacher is a very good way to improve. During the teaching process, he will also feel his own shortcomings and constantly improve and perfect himself.”.
“Moreover, Jiansheng now has to adjust his state of mind. Recently, he saw Qin Yuyan, who has awakened the emperor’s bloodline in the nine provinces. Her cultivation has improved very quickly and her state of mind is somewhat unbalanced. Recently, the heart of his martial art is not very stable.
“That’s why I asked him to take the teacher qualification certificate and become a teacher. I hope that he can calm his emotions.”
“I see.”
Ye Xiao nodded. He had not expected that Qin Yuyan had actually advanced.
However, after thinking about it carefully, it made sense. After becoming a grandmaster, once she awakened the emperor’s bloodline, her cultivation would improve extremely quickly.
In addition, in the nine provinces, in order to quickly nurture her, they had invested a lot of resources. That way, even if she did not want to advance, she would still advance quickly.
However, in front of Liu Chengxun, it would not be good for him to use the Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery. He would have to see what grade Qin Yuyan had advanced to so that he can determine how heaven-defying she would be after awakening the emperor’s bloodline.
‘Forget it, I should look for my own books first.’
Ye Xiao quickly found a few cultivation techniques.
Unfortunately, among the few Shaolin finger techniques, Ye Xiao had learned them all.
Flicking Finger, Herculean Vajra Finger, One Yang Finger…
Just as Ye Xiao thought that he was going to work for nothing again, he suddenly found a finger technique in a corner.
“Immeasurable Calamity Finger!”
Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up. Immeasurable Calamity Finger was a cultivation technique that he had never cultivated before. He did not know if it could complement the finger technique that he had lost.
He quickly pulled out the cultivation technique, and the Golden Book’s spirit automatically jumped.
Ye Xiao’s face lit up. Success!
That was really the last finger technique.
That was because every time it was time to synthesize and find the last finger technique, the Golden Book’s spirit would have a reaction.
Ye Xiao suddenly thought of something. He should actually read more books and strive to raise the remaining leg techniques and claw techniques that he wanted to practice to the last one. At that time, he would not need to search for books one by one, he could then move along the bookshelf. When he touched a book that was suitable, the Golden Book’s spirit would automatically jump. Wouldn’t he be able to find the last one?
That plan was quite perfect.
However, at the moment, Ye Xiao had to read his last finger technique first. It was almost time to get off work.
Ding!
Two minutes later, the clock chimed to get off work. Ye Xiao also imprinted the Immeasurable Calamity Finger on his Golden Book. The Golden Book had already started cultivating. When it returned home, it would probably have already been cultivated to perfection and could be synthesized.
…
At the same time, three figures with extraordinary auras also quietly landed in Jianghai city.
They had physiques that were different from normal humans. Some were as strong as an ox, while others had a slim waist that could be grasped.
“Is this Jianghai city?”
