Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1504: I Wish to Take You as My Disciple
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
“Concede? How is that possible?”
The young man in black sneered disdainfully, staring at Ye Yun with a cold snort, “If you cannot activate the five sword lights on the Chaotic Sword Stone, the bet still stands!”
“Alright.”
Ye Yun chuckled nonchalantly.
To him, this young man in black was nothing more than a small fry who didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, so Ye Yun didn’t take it to heart whatsoever.
This time coming to the Slaughter Emperor Gate, Ye Yun just wanted to meet the Empress of Slaughter, whom he missed greatly.
This little girl, who was suppressed by him once ten thousand years ago yet benefited from the misfortune, comprehending Sword Eleven from it.
Even before leaving, she left a Life-taking Puppet just to reunite with him.
Such thoughtfulness moved Ye Yun, so he wanted to see what extraordinary appearance the Empress of Slaughter had.
After a tempest settled, the queue became much more orderly, and no one dared to cut in line anymore.
After all, there weren’t many whose cultivation base surpassed that God Emperor Realm Second Level elder.
“Wow, five sword lights!”
The crowd surged, as someone exclaimed in astonishment.
The Chaotic Sword Stone, standing over three meters high, suddenly emitted five awe-inspiring sword lights, each sword light being seven to eight meters high, lingering for several seconds before slowly disappearing.
“You have passed the test.”
A Disciple of the Slaughter Emperor Gate standing beside the Chaotic Sword Stone said with a smile to a youth in white robes.
“Esteemed sir, I would like to try once more, to see if I can activate the sixth sword light…”
The white-robed youth seemed unsatisfied, making a small request.
“Go ahead and try.”
The Disciple of the Slaughter Emperor Gate replied with a smile.
The white-robed youth swung his sword, and a massive Sword Intent fell onto the Chaotic Sword Stone.
Buzz!
The Chaotic Sword Stone suddenly trembled, and several sword lights consecutively appeared once more.
One, two, three…
This time, a full six sword lights emerged before stopping.
The Disciple of the Slaughter Emperor Gate nodded frequently, chuckling, “You’re quite impressive, having activated six sword lights, you can become a disciple of the various Peak Masters.”
“Thank you, esteemed sir.”
The white-robed youth’s face filled with joy as he sheathed his sword.
He then stepped aside, waiting quietly.
Although he passed the test, he hadn’t yet decided on his destination.
When the three-month test concluded, it would finally be revealed who would be taken where.
The Slaughter Emperor Gate is a gigantic Sect, possessing Seventy-two Peaks and the Three Great Sword Palaces.
Each of the Seventy-two Peaks comprehends the Slaughter swordsmanship differently, developing distinct legacies.
The strength of the Seventy-two Peaks is somewhat weaker compared to the Three Great Sword Palaces.
The Three Great Sword Palaces specialize in Slaughter Swordsmanship, with disciples within having extremely high talent, and their acceptance criteria required the activation of seven sword lights on the Chaotic Sword Stone.
If someone could activate eight or nine sword lights, they might be personally taken on as a disciple by the Master Teaching.
The personal disciples of the Master Teaching hold a very high position, on par with the Peak Masters of the Seventy-two Peaks, only slightly inferior to the Palace Masters of the Three Great Sword Palaces.
Time kept ticking by, yet the testing queue didn’t seem to grow shorter, remaining long, because people were constantly joining.
After half a day.
Finally, it was the turn of the young man in black in front of Ye Yun.
Though a little arrogant, this young man in black had decent talent in Sword Dao, activating five sword lights.
He successfully joined the Slaughter Emperor Gate.
After his test, the young man in black shot Ye Yun a provocative look, appearing somewhat arrogant.
Ye Yun smiled faintly.
The next test was Lv Song’s turn. He approached the Chaotic Sword Stone, drew the sword from his back, built up his emotions, and then unleashed a slash.
A tremendous Sword Intent whistled over, falling into the Chaotic Sword Stone.
Buzz!
The Chaotic Sword Stone quivered slightly, and five sword lights burst consecutively.
“Pass!”
The Disciple of the Slaughter Emperor Gate standing beside the Chaotic Sword Stone shouted loudly.
“Thank you, esteemed sir.”
Lv Song beamed with delight, turned around, and made a victory gesture towards Ye Yun behind him.
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lv.”
Ye Yun also smiled.
Lv Song, being quite self-aware, didn’t slash a second time but retreated to a spot in the plaza to wait instead.
The next one was Ye Yun.
He withdrew a sword and slowly walked forward.
This sword was the same one used in his spar with Lv Song.
“The master is about to make his move…”
Watching Ye Yun’s back, Yu Lingfei was overwhelmed with emotions.
She also wanted to see what astonishing level her master’s swordsmanship had reached.
Standing before the Chaotic Sword Stone, Ye Yun didn’t rush to unleash his sword, but turned to look at the nearby Disciple of the Slaughter Emperor Gate.
This was a gray-robed young man at the First Level of the God Emperor Realm.
“Is it true that activating eight sword lights would allow someone to be taken as a disciple by the Head Teacher?”
Ye Yun leisurely asked.
“Indeed!”
The gray-robed young man replied in a deep voice.
Afterward, he stared in surprise at the young man in white before him, somewhat awestruck in his heart.
This guy came with such an arrogant attitude, could it be… he really can activate eight sword lights?
Over the past two months.
Among tens of thousands of test-takers, only two people succeeded in activating eight sword lights.
As for nine sword lights, no one had activated them yet.
Gazing at the Chaotic Sword Stone, Ye Yun smiled slightly, “What if I activate nine sword lights, what would happen?”
“Nine sword lights? Then the Emperor Ancestor must come in person…”
The black-robed young man laughed dismissively, clearly thinking Ye Yun’s words were a joke.
“I understand now.”
Swish—
Ye Yun suddenly drew his sword, a powerful Sword Intent whistled into the Chaotic Sword Stone.
Buzz…
The Chaotic Sword Stone trembled violently, and nine sword lights burst out consecutively, each extremely dazzling, so bright that some people couldn’t open their eyes.
“Nine sword lights!”
Everyone in the plaza, seeing the nine sword lights, became visibly excited.
The Slaughter Emperor Gate had been recruiting disciples for two months, and this was the first time nine sword lights appeared.
How rare it was.
“My goodness, I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Ye’s Sword Dao talent to be so outstanding…”
Lv Song, who was waiting nearby, couldn’t conceal his shock.
Originally, he thought this fellow Daoist Ye, whose swordsmanship was strong, might be able to activate seven or eight sword lights.
Unexpectedly, at the first strike, he activated nine sword lights.
“How can he activate nine sword lights!”
The young man in black who had bet with Ye Yun before, his face turned pale, trembling all over, unable to stand steadily.
At that moment, he finally realized his foolishness.
…
“What? Nine sword lights?”
The Peak Masters of the Seventy-two Peaks in the Slaughter Emperor Gate were all extremely shocked.
“What a shame, this person’s talent is too monstrous, we’re not fated…”
A Peak Master sighed.
The Peak Masters of the Seventy-two Peaks aren’t qualified to pick such a disciple.
The Palace Masters of the Three Great Sword Palaces aren’t either.
Unless the Head Teacher doesn’t accept him.
He might end up in the hands of the Three Great Sword Palaces.
A fragrant breeze arose, and a beauty in pink palace robes suddenly appeared in front of the Chaotic Sword Stone without any warning.
“Wow, nine sword lights…”
The palace-robed beauty was visibly agitated, counting the nine sword lights, her eyes constantly twinkling with light.
Ye Yun evaluated this palace-robed beauty, showing disappointment on his face, shaking his head with a sigh in his heart: “This is not that girl…”
“Greetings, Master Teaching!”
In the plaza, all the disciples of the Slaughter Emperor Gate knelt down.
“Rise.”
The palace-robed beauty waved her hand, and everyone stood up.
So it was the Head Teacher…
Hearing the crowd’s address, a look of realization flashed across Ye Yun’s face.
Where did this Slaughter Emperor Gate’s Emperor Ancestor go?
Didn’t they say, as long as nine sword lights are activated, they would come?
The palace-robed beauty looked seriously at Ye Yun, with a gentle smile, asked, “I wish to take you as my disciple, would you be willing?”
