Chapter 366

After refinement, the Huge Sword was no longer as rough as before. Its surface was smoother, and there was a layer of special patterns on it.

Holding the hilt, Chen Yu found that the sword was heavier than before. With a casual wave, it created a gust of wind, blowing away the materials on the side and scattering them on the ground.

"Master Shen, what level is this sword at?"

Chen Yu felt that the sword was unusual and could not help asking.

"A superb King level Precious Weapon, very close to a Spiritual Weapon!"

Master Shen said proudly.

"Close to a Spiritual Weapon!"

Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat.

The Huge Sword was the work of Master Shen when he was young. Now his skills had reached the top level of the entire Yunzhao Country. With one move, he could refine a top level Precious Weapon into a superb King level Precious Weapon.

If he had known that Master Shen was so skilled, Chen Yu would have asked Master Shen to refine a Spiritual Weapon for him.

Although Chen Yu had a mysterious bone sword, its level was too high. So far, Chen Yu had kept it in the Mist Spitting Bead and had not touched it.

"I only helped you refine it for the sake of this sword."

Master Shen seemed to have seen through Chen Yu's thoughts and said calmly.

Chen Yu thought that it was true.

The Huge Sword was the work of Master Shen when he was young. To help Chen Yu, he had, to a certain extent, fulfilled his regret.

Not to mention that Chen Yu asked Master Shen to help him refine a Spiritual Weapon, Master Shen might not even agree to some tutors in the academy.

"The material of this sword has not reached the level of a Spiritual Weapon, but the level of the inscription on it has reached the level of a Spiritual Weapon. The effect of the inscription can endow this heavy sword with a certain gravitational property."

Master Shen said proudly.

"Gravitational property? Not bad, not bad! "

Chen Yu nodded repeatedly.

The Huge Sword was a heavy weapon. With the gravitational property, its power would increase greatly. If its full power was exerted, it would be comparable to a Spiritual Weapon.

"Goodbye, Master Shen."

Chen Yu smiled and left the secret chamber.

"By the way, that guy just now, I think his name is Chen Yu!"

Only then did Master Shen recall that Chen Yu's name had come from the mouth of that bald old man.

"Haha, interesting. Champion of the school competition. Maybe next time, I really have to refine a Spiritual Weapon for him!"

Master Shen could not help but laugh.

The Artifact Forging Ground was isolated from the Academy, but a year ago, when Grandmaster Shen went out to purchase materials, he happened to hear many people talking about Chen Yu, and he knew that the Demon-Free Academy had actually won first place in the Academy Tournament.

The champion of the school tournament was a symbol of Yunzhao Nation's top talent. Perhaps it would not be long before Chen Yu reached the pinnacle of success. When that time came, Master Shen might really have to forge for Chen Yu.

Outside, many of the weapon forgers looked at Chen Yu in surprise, wondering what kind of weapon Master had made for Chen Of Of..

After leaving the Artifact Refining Ground, Chen Yu went to the Cultivation Tower and rented a separate cultivation area.

Boom!

The giant sword was waved, dragging a layer of black shadow. There seemed to be a gray gravitational field around the sword. Every time it swept, a shocking gust of wind would blow.

Chen Yu spent some time familiarizing himself with the new Giant Sword.

After familiarizing himself with it, Chen Yu integrated the sword moves.

Suddenly, a huge amount of Devil Qi was emitted from the Giant Sword. Like a dark cloud, it shrouded the front.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, the ground of the training room was blasted into a shallow pit of one foot wide.

The special training room Chen Yu rented was reinforced with an array formation. However, a single strike from Chen Yu's demonic rune energy easily destroyed the secret training room.

Afterward, Chen Yu moved to a higher-level training room and started practicing his swordsmanship.

Half a month later, Chen Yu went to the Devil Qi Pool to practice the Record of the Devil Secret Patterns.

After reaching the Greater Mastery of the third level, it became increasingly difficult to improve. Ordinary demonic elixirs were not of much use.

Just like that, Chen Yu's life in the academy consisted of going back and forth between the training room and the Devil Qi Pool.

A year passed in the blink of an eye.

During this time, Chen Yu's cultivation and technique did not improve significantly. However, he was extremely stable in all aspects and had reached a bottleneck.

Now, there was only a month left until the five-year promise between him and Ye Luofeng.

"The third level of the Record of the Devil Secret Patterns is almost complete. It's time to go to the ancient ruins."

Back when Chen Yu won first place, he was rewarded with ten days to study the ancient ruins. This time, it was valid for five years.

After a while, Chen Yu would leave the Yunzhao Nation. He did not know when he would return. The ten days to study the ancient ruins could not be wasted.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Chen Yu left alone.

Half a day later, he successfully arrived at the teleportation portal of the Sky River Prefecture. After paying the Primary Stones, he was teleported to the Yunyang Sacred Prefecture.

The eyes of a law enforcer in charge of activating the portal flashed slightly. He took out a black token from his storage bag and sent a message. "Chen Yu is out."

On the other side, Chen Yu arrived at the palace and reported his identity and purpose. Under the guidance of the guards, he finally arrived at the ancient ruins after a series of checks.

As usual, Chen Yu entered the ancient ruins left behind by the Dark Bone Demon Lord to study.

The entire space was gray and exuded a desolate and ancient aura. A terrifying demonic intent that shook the heavens rumbled towards Chen Yu.

Even the current Chen Yu felt his soul tremble from the impact of that demonic intent, and he was somewhat affected.

Chen Yu immediately activated the Secret Pattern Demonic Body and activated the Demonic Qi at the same time. His consciousness also emitted a powerful demonic intent to resist.

Only then would he be able to survive in these ancient ruins.

In the ancient ruins, not only would Chen Yu's cultivation speed increase, but his spiritual will would also be tempered.

Moreover, the entire space was filled with a profound demonic intent. If he could comprehend it, his achievements in the demonic dao would be higher and he would be able to go further.

"Time is limited. I have to hurry!"

Chen Yu immediately sat down with his legs crossed.

He concentrated his Qi and activated the Sky Demon Secret Pattern Record. The demonic dao energy in the surroundings was quickly absorbed into Chen Yu's body.

At the same time, he released his spiritual will to feel the demonic dao energy in the surroundings.

Two days later …

Chen Yu's spiritual power was consolidated at the early stage of the Returning Origin Realm. It was slightly stronger than the average early stage Returning Origin Realm cultivator.

Nine days later, Chen Yu reached the peak of the third stage of the Sky Demon Secret Pattern Record.

Boom!

Chen Yu's body erupted with a powerful demonic aura, emitting a domineering demonic intent that could shake the world.

With the breakthrough in his cultivation technique, his cultivation had successfully broken through to the peak stage of the late stage of the Xiantian Realm. He wasn't far from the Returning Origin Realm.

Of course, Chen Yu knew that his cultivation talent was poor. Even with the Soul Transformation Elixir, breaking through to the Returning Origin Realm wasn't a child's play. He had to make ample preparations.

There was only one day left. Chen Yu used it to consolidate his cultivation.

"With my current cultivation strength, there is almost no one that can threaten me when I return to the Chu Country."

Chen Yu clenched his fist and smiled confidently.

Soon, the time limit for the ancient ruins was up.

"If I can continue to comprehend in the ancient ruins, my cultivation speed will definitely be very fast."

Chen Yu exclaimed.

It was a pity that when he absorbed some energy and comprehended some intent from the ancient ruins, the energy in the entire ancient ruins would be lesser.

Hence, the time for comprehending the ancient ruins as a reward from the royal family was rather short.

After leaving the royal palace, Chen Yu arrived at the teleportation array and returned to the Sky River Prefecture.

Sou!

Chen Yu immediately leaped and started his journey.

When he passed by a wilderness.

"Someone's there?"

Chen Yu's sharp spiritual senses could sense that there was an anomaly in the surroundings.

"Haha, no wonder you are the previous tournament's champion. You actually noticed me."

Behind a huge boulder not far away, a loud laughter could be heard.

Boom!

A loud sound could be heard. A ball of dark purple light appeared around the huge boulder. The entire boulder was flying towards Chen Yu.

"Returning Origin Realm!"

Chen Yu could feel the power of his true essence. But the current him had been cultivating for two years and his strength was far stronger than before.

Peng!

The surface of Chen Yu's body was glowing with a black demonic light. A layer of black inscription was faintly discernible. He circulated the qi of the demonic patterns and punched out. The huge boulder instantly exploded into countless pieces.

The moment the huge boulder exploded, a black figure flew out from within. A thin sword appeared in the figure's hand. The tip of the sword flickered with cold light as it silently pierced towards Jiang Yi.

"There are actually two of them!"

Chen Yu was slightly surprised in his heart.

The opponent's ambush and sneak attack was indeed superb.

If it was a regular Returning Origin Realm, they would be severely injured even if they didn't die.

Because the black figure that jumped out from the boulder was too sudden.

Chen Yu immediately took out the [Huge Sword] from the [Mist Spitting Pearl].

Suddenly, a powerful Devil Path True Qi burst out from the broad and dark sword. At the same time, the [Huge Sword]'s gravity attribute was activated. A layer of invisible gravity field enveloped Chen Yu's surroundings.

The black figure that assassinated Jiang Yi was affected by the sudden appearance of the gravity field and his speed was slowed down for a moment.

Boom!

Chen Yu held the sword with both his arms. With a fierce swing, a layer of demonic pattern dark cloud whizzed past.

The assassin might be agile, but the attack range of Chen Yu's [Huge Sword] was huge. The demonic pattern dark cloud tore off a piece of black cloth from his arm.

"Totem?"

The black figure was surprised.

Even a regular Returning Origin Realm martial artist might not have a totem. Chen Yu had yet to reach the Returning Origin Realm and had chosen a support totem in the tournament. How did he have an offensive totem now?

In fact, Chen Yu's [Huge Sword] was just a supreme grade King class treasure. But it was just a little bit away from becoming a totem. With the special attributes of the sword, it was mistaken as a totem.

"Since you are here, then don't leave."

Chen Yu immediately rushed out and swept the huge sword again towards the assassin.

Now, Chen Yu's speed wasn't any slower than the assassin. With the [Huge Sword]'s area of effect attack, it was extremely difficult for the assassin to dodge. In just a short moment, three wounds were left on his body.

"This kid's strength … … how did he grow so fast?"

The black figure was very surprised.

"Let's kill him together."

A middle-aged man in a purple robe flew over and struck out with a purple palm.

Boom!

This purple robed man's strength was at the peak of the initial stage of the Returning Origin Realm. The power of that palm was extraordinary.

However, Chen Yu wasn't afraid at all. The demonic patterns on his right arm surged. The demonic pattern qi was mixed with some half-step true essence as he struck out with his claw.

Tsk!

Instantly, the purple palm was shattered by an ancient demonic claw. The remaining force of the claw landed on the purple robed man's chest.

Fortunately, he was wearing a defensive inner armor and wasn't injured.

"It has only been two years and his strength is already so strong?"

The purple robed man had a face of hatred and unwillingness.

He had just broken through to the peak of the initial stage of the Returning Origin Realm not long ago and the assassin even had the battle record of injuring a peak of the initial stage of the Returning Origin Realm.

Yet, the two of them were repelled by a peak stage Xiantian Realm kid.

But just now, the two of them had fought with Chen Yu one by one. If they were to work together now, they would definitely be able to kill Chen Yu.

But at this moment, three figures rushed out from the back.

"How dare you? How dare you attack a student of the Devilless Academy! "

The leader was a black robed man. He was the mentor of the Blood Fiend Academy, Liu Xuanzong.
