Chapter 1070: Chapter 470: The Battle Among True Powerhouses!_3

"Sir, during my recent trips outside to acquire mystic treasures, I’ve networked with quite a few formidable cultivators," Shi Pan reminded. "They’ve discreetly warned me that the Holy Light Sect has deep roots.

"Right now, the Holy Light Sect seems to be stirring. Should we be cautious?" Shi Pan added.

Qi Yuan glanced at the body of Heaven Lame Heavenly Venerate, a smile in his eyes, "The insignificant Holy Light Sect isn’t worth mentioning."

Seeing this, Shi Pan didn’t say anything more.

Over the years, he had roughly figured out his master’s personality.

What the master said was the law, and it should be followed as he said.

At this moment, Qi Yuan thought of something and indifferently said, "Didn’t you mention a few days ago that you hoped I would teach you some of the fighting methods used by higher-ranking cultivators? Today... as Dao Bu Er and I sparred, how much did you learn, just by listening on the side?"

Shi Pan was taken aback upon hearing this.

Exchanging insults?

Was this really the sparring of higher-ranking cultivators?

It was preposterous.

Surely the master was joking?

Too childish!

"I... I didn’t learn anything," Shi Pan answered earnestly.

"It seems you are a bit slow. How about this: for the next period, Dao Bu Er will come every day, and I will likely spar with him daily. You should listen closely and learn well," Qi Yuan said casually.

His actions were as he pleased, whimsical and natural.

This also conformed to his Great Ultimate Reasoning doctrine of Do As One Pleases.

"Thank you, sir," Shi Pan replied somewhat nervously, but still answered truthfully.

After being dismissed, Shi Pan left the place.

Doubts lingered in his eyes.

"Was that... an exchange of insults?"

"No, isn’t the master Dao Bu Er’s father?"

"How could the master then be Dao Bu Er’s grandson?"

His head was a mess, muddled with thoughts he couldn’t sort out.

With confusion in mind, he returned to his dwelling.

At that moment, a tall cultivator approached, "Young friend Shi Pan, have you conveyed the message to that great person?"

This tall cultivator was one of the Venerables from Tiankun Peculiar Land.

After learning of Qi Yuan’s existence, he had thought of coming to show goodwill.

After all, one who could control Wandering Souls must surely be an Ultimate Reasoning Sun God.

"I’ve already delivered the message to the sir," Shi Pan said.

"What did that great person say?" the tall cultivator asked, his face bright with anticipation.

"The sir said... the Holy Light Sect isn’t worth mentioning!" Shi Pan repeated Qi Yuan’s words.

Upon hearing this, the tall cultivator’s expression became complex, "This great person... is quite confident."

Thinking this, he felt that his attempt to show goodwill had been in vain.

This Ultimate Reasoning Sun God was clearly overconfident. One must understand that within the Holy Light Sect there was a member of the Holy Light Clan.

He thought Qi Yuan was not far from death.

He had also heard that Liu Xi once refused to serve this Heavenly Venerate. At that time, many cultivators in the small circles of Tiankun Peculiar Land thought Liu Xi was too timid and lacking courage, missing such an opportunity.

Now it seemed that Liu Xi’s choice was the right one.

Today, Liu Xi had entered a secret realm in Tiankun Peculiar Land, reaping great benefits, and seemed on the verge of ascension.

While this Ultimate Reasoning Sun God here was arrogant and haughty, with the look of death upon him.

If the Holy Light Clan made their move, this Ultimate Reasoning Sun God would undoubtedly die.

He was already contemplating retreat.

It was better not to show goodwill towards a dead man, to avoid bringing trouble upon oneself.

"Elder, I have a question," Shi Pan asked softly.

"Oh, what’s your question?" the tall cultivator asked casually, though his tone was no longer as friendly as before.

"What is the nature of the battle between upper-tier cultivators?

Today, a cultivator named Dao Bu Er came to see the sir, and they..."

He told the tall cultivator about the day’s events.

This tall cultivator was a respected senior, his vision far surpassed Shi Pan’s.

Upon hearing this, a sardonic smile appeared in the tall cultivator’s eyes, "Even a battle between Great Ultimate Reasoning Powerhouses would never look like this. Your master is pulling your leg!"

After saying this, the tall cultivator shook his head and chose to leave.

Leaving only Shi Pan behind, full of doubt.

"The master wouldn’t lie to me, it must be that this elder’s level is too low!"

Shi Pan was convinced.

In the days that followed, Shi Pan earnestly observed the combat between powerhouses, watching at Qi Yuan’s side every day.

He furrowed his brow, taking the verbal sparring seriously.

"I’m your father!"

"I’m your grandfather!"

"Defense breached!"

"Like throwing stones at a dog!"

The more he heard, the more absurd it seemed.

These years continued for three years.

Shi Pan’s efficiency in exchanging mystic treasures had also been decreasing.

Rumors were spreading outside that the Sect Leader of the Holy Light Sect had emerged from seclusion.

As such, those cultivators kept far away from the area where Qi Yuan resided and did not dare to trade with him any longer, fearing they would incur the Holy Light Sect’s displeasure.

One day, the verbal sparring came to an end.

Qi Yuan felt refreshed and clear-headed.

"Finally, a minor accomplishment!"

His Absolute Adaptation, amidst these undercurrents and crises, where a single misstep could lead to an irrecoverable downfall in high-level combat, had reached the stage of minor accomplishment through survival of the fittest.

"With my current state, even without utilizing the cultivation level of Ten Thousand Paths Martial Gods, just relying on this Supreme Ultimate Reasoning, I should be able to contend with cultivators who have just entered the Realm of Great Ultimate Reasoning."

Of course, he could only contend.

To harm an average Great Ultimate Reasoning cultivator, his Absolute Adaptation needed to reach the stage of major accomplishment.

To slay someone like the Ziyuan Ancestor, a Great Ultimate Reasoning powerhouse, it would need to be at the level of pattern mastery.

This Dao Bu Er was indeed a qualified power bank.

"Shi Pan, how much did you understand this time?" Qi Yuan asked again.

Shi Pan said with a bitter face, "The disciple is dull-witted, not having grasped even ten percent."

For three years, he had been observing the battles, but he couldn’t understand them at all.

"The sir’s method of combat is too profound, returning to the basics and following the natural Dao; Shi Pan finds it incomprehensible."

"Sigh, with your mind, indeed it’s difficult to comprehend such profound combat. It’s tough on you," Qi Yuan sighed. "As the saying goes, once you’ve seen the vast ocean, shallow waters no longer thrill; after clouds disperse, only ordinary scenes remain. Upon witnessing other profound combats in the future, you’ll find them utterly bland."
