Chapter 2 - God Slaughtering Technique

When Ye Yang appeared within the sea, the huge sword in the sky caused him to be completely dumbfounded.

That huge sword was hundreds of thousands of feet high. It pierced through the clouds and floated above the ocean. What shocked Ye Yang the most was that the tip of his sword was broken.

When Ye Yang saw this scene, he couldn't help but shiver. He thought that the broken sword he recognized was the one he held in his arms right before he died.

In his previous life, Ye Yang was an extremely outstanding military officer. He once won the title of champion in three consecutive great competitions and never met an opponent with fighting techniques.

After receiving a secret order to send a newly unearthed mysterious broken sword to Everest, an avalanche occurred while he was being escorted there. Afterward, Ye Yang was buried under the snow with the broken sword in his arms. When he regained his consciousness, he had already arrived in this world.

At this moment, the appearance of the broken sword caused countless mysteries to surface in Ye Yang's mind. Just where did this sword come from and why did it come with him?

The colossal sword that shot through the clouds suddenly shook, and a transparent ball of light floated towards Ye Yang, stopping in front of his chest.

Ye Yang was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, he carefully extended his hand towards the ball of light.

The moment his fingers made contact with the ball of light, Ye Yang immediately felt as if his head was about to split open. A huge amount of information rushed into Ye Yang's mind.

"Ah!"

Even with Ye Yang's perseverance, he couldn't help but hold onto a headache. The pain lasted for an entire incense stick of time, and something else appeared in Ye Yang's mind.

After studying it carefully, Ye Yang realized that the thing that entered his mind was a cultivation technique called "God Slaughtering Technique".

This world was completely different from Ye Yang's previous one. This was a world of cultivation where everyone practiced martial arts and absorbed heaven and earth origin energy for their own use. This energy formed a type of energy within their body, called zhenqi. After countless tens of thousands of years of accumulation, this world had an extremely precise cultivation level: warrior, warrior, martial master, martial general, Wu Wang, and martial emperor.

The method of absorbing the Heaven and Earth energy for one's own use was called 'Cultivation Method'. A technique that used the true energy within one's body as its power to display a powerful attack ability was called 'Battle Skill'. Whether it was a cultivation method or a battle skill, they were all divided into four ranks, Sky, Earth, Black and Yellow. Each rank was further divided into three ranks: Low, Middle, and High.

If one were to cultivate all the cultivation techniques in the continent to a certain extent, when one's zhenqi was fully accumulated and one's zhenqi circulated, breaking through the shackles of cultivation, one would be able to level up.

Ye Yang didn't know what rank of cultivation technique the God Slaughtering Technique was, and there was no description on it. All it did was record the name of the cultivation technique and its method of operation.

However, it was different from the martial arts techniques Ye Yang practiced in the family. After one reached the martial arts realm, the required one to rely on slaughter to advance.

The daily training was no different from any other cultivation technique. Only when one's energy was fully accumulated, no matter how hard one worked, no matter how much true energy one absorbed, it would still be impossible for one to advance. The only way to advance was to kill opponents of the same rank and above, and absorb the Soul Attraction.

After reading this cultivation technique, Ye Yang was immediately ecstatic. He knew that spring had arrived, and the did not have any bottlenecks in cultivation. This also meant that no matter what caused his cultivation to stagnate, in front of it, everything was fine.

Taking a deep breath, he tried to suppress his excitement. After being humiliated by Ye Chong today, he finally understood the importance of strength.

Without power, even though he was the son of the Patriarch, he would still be stepped on. This was the cruelty of respecting the world through martial arts.

The Ye Family already had a rule that adults were not allowed to interfere in battles between the younger generation. Therefore, even if Ye Yang was bullied, Ye Lingtian had no way of intervening.

When his emotions had completely calmed down, Ye Yang sat on the bed with his legs crossed. His hands slowly formed a seal according to the instructions in the God Slaughtering Technique.

Following the formation of that seal, the energy of the surrounding area started to fluctuate. His body was like a magnet as it absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.

After the spiritual qi entered his body, it went along his meridians and flowed into his dantian.

Within Ye Yang's dantian, there was already a ball of true energy formed from true energy. As the circulated, the ball of energy gradually grew larger.

Just like a jar, when there was too much true energy inside, the jar suddenly cracked and shattered.

Following the shattering of the ball of air, the true energy within his dantian gushed out as it ran along Ye Yang's meridians like the sea water flowing backwards.

After a quarter-hour, all of the true qi had returned to his dantian, and this ball of true qi was several times larger than before.

Ye Yang slowly opened his eyes and looked at his hands in disbelief as he felt the surging power within his body. His eyes were filled with excitement.

"Phew!"

With a punch, the pages on the table five feet away were lifted up by the force of the punch.

"The power in this world is really strong. It is simply unimaginable that someone who had just broken through to the 4th level of the Qi Condensation stage would possess such great power!"

"Huhuhu"

Ye Yang continuously practiced a few movements, practicing some of the fighting techniques from his previous life. He realized that not only has his strength increased, even his speed has increased.

When Ye Yang pushed open the door, he realized that an entire day had already passed without him realizing it. He never thought that what seemed like a few breaths of time would actually take so much time. It really made him speechless.

"Gulp!"

Suddenly, Ye Yang's stomach rumbled. Right now, it was already close to lunchtime. Ye Yang slowly walked towards the dining hall.

The Ye Family was one of the three big families in the Eight Desolate City, standing side by side with the Zhao Family of the Southern City and the Gu Family in the Western City. The family had a total of over three thousand people. They operated a bustling adventurer's market in the east city. They had a wide range of operations and hundreds of shops were all doing very well. It was not difficult for them to feed such a large population.

After an entire morning of training, the boys and girls were hungry and were eating and chatting. The large dining hall was like a market.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Yang. Most people's eyes were filled with disdain. Only a few girls looked at him with sympathy.

Ye Yang sighed in his heart. This brother only wants to live a low-key life, why is it so difficult to realize such a simple wish?

As he thought of this, he continued walking towards the food rack in front of the dining hall. There were all sorts of food piled up on the shelf. The Ye Family's food was not bad.

While Ye Yang was fetching food from his plate, a few discordant voices could be heard.

"You know your own limits. A trash like you should come back after we finish eating. I really don't know why some people have such thick skin …"

"That's right. He vomited blood yesterday and doesn't have a good memory today. Don't tell me his brain has been broken as well?"

"That might be true. A few days ago, I almost drowned, and I was punched again yesterday. I guess you must have turned silly?"

The group of people laughed brazenly. Ye Yang's hand, which was holding the plate of food, shook slightly while his other hand clenched it tightly. However, Ye Yang immediately let go and laughed in his heart. Why are you arguing with a bunch of brats?

He pretended not to hear those people's mockery and found a table for no one to sit at and started to eat as if there was no one else present.

At this moment, the youths that were mocking Ye Yang were all flabbergasted. If it was the past, this brat would have already run away in anger. Why had he changed from his cowardly state today? He ate so calmly.

All of a sudden, a good-looking teenager in the crowd gave Ye Chong a look. Ye Chong nodded and walked towards Ye Yang.

Although Ye Yang was eating, he had long "seen" everything. After training in the God Slaughtering Technique, Ye Yang discovered that he had an additional ability, which was to use his spiritual sense to observe his surroundings.

Right now, Ye Yang could clearly feel everything within a radius of 100 feet. That handsome youth's actions weren't able to escape Ye Yang's senses. He couldn't help but snort coldly. Since you want to play, then I'll play with you.

Ye Chong walked casually to Ye Yang, crossed his arms, and sneered, "Are you a pig?" Only pigs only remember to eat but not fight. Wasn't yesterday's lesson enough? You want to do it again? "

Ye Yang took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth lightly. He squinted at Ye Chong and sneered, "Do you know how annoying you are? Do you really need me to break your dog legs?"

"You're courting death!"

Ye Chong bellowed, and punched towards Ye Yang's temple, aiming to kill him. Quite a few ladies cried out in alarm.

One had to know that the temple was an important acupoint in a person's body. If one was hit, it was very possible that the person would be shot on the spot. Ye Yang's eyes turned cold and his killing intent immediately overflowed.

"Pa!"

While the crowd was still in shock, Ye Yang grabbed Ye Chong's fist with one hand and smashed the other on the bridge of Ye Chong's nose.

"Crack!"

A bone cracking sound could be heard, and Ye Yang's punch sent Ye Chong flying. He was sent flying to a number of tables, his body covered in gravy, in a sorry state.

Seeing Ye Chong being sent flying, Ye Yang was secretly excited. The God Slaughtering Technique was too powerful. He had just broken through to the 4th level of Qi Condensation, and his strength was already comparable to Ye Chong's.

A deathly silence fell upon the whole audience. Ye Chong, whose cultivation base was at the sixth layer of Qi Condensation, was actually defeated in one move by Ye Yang, who was called trash.

After Ye Chong was sent flying, he was momentarily stunned, but when he regained his senses and realized that everyone was staring at him, he flew into a rage. He ignored the blood on his face and charged at Ye Yang savagely.

"Little bastard, today I —"

"Pa!"

Ye Yang's hand drew a beautiful arc across the air and fiercely flung onto his face. The powerful force instantly caused him to stagger.

However, before he could react, Ye Yang grabbed his hair and pushed his head towards his stiff knees.

Puff.

There was a dull thud. After the heavy blow, the entire dining hall fell silent. Ye Chong collapsed limply on the floor.

"Ye Yang, what are you doing?" "Stop!" A person in the crowd walked out and shouted at Ye Yang.

He had a long, jade-like body and a pretty face. He knew that the first elder's direct descendant was called Ye Feng, and he was an eighth level Qi Condensation expert. He was one of the people the family focused on.

Just before Ye Chong came out to provoke him, he stole a glance at Ye Feng before continuing to provoke him.

Ye Yang was sure that the reason Ye Chong came out to provoke him yesterday was because he was ordered by Ye Feng.

He did not speak, and only looked at Ye Feng with a cold smile.

Ye Feng was a little scared by Ye Yang's stare, he tried to put on a fierce front but was weak inside, "Don't you know that the dining hall forbids martial arts? "If you do this, you will be punished by the elders. Hurry up and release Ye Chong!"

"Oh, the dining hall doesn't allow the use of force, right? Did any of you see me do it?" Ye Yang asked in puzzlement, and Ye Chong swung his hand a few times, as if he was holding a dead dog.

"Nonsense! If you didn't use force, what did you count for with Ye Chong in your hand? Ye Chong had a good chat with you, you beat him up, and everyone saw it, yet you still dare to quibble!" Ye Feng's face paled from anger at Ye Yang's words, and he cursed loudly.

Everyone in the dining hall breathed heavily. Today, Ye Yang had changed from his usual cowardice and fully displayed his domineering side. Especially his gaze, which made people shiver from the depths of their bones.

"Hehe, I've been in the Ye family for so many years, it looks like you've forgotten about the rules. "Then let me tell you, I did not use force, I am capturing the rebel army." Sneering coldly, he spoke in a slow and unhurried manner.

"Nonsense, what capture of a traitor? You bastard took advantage of Ye Chong's inattentiveness and launched a sneak attack on him. Otherwise, with his cultivation level of the sixth level of Qi Condensation, how could you be his match? You are too despicable. Aren't you afraid of losing all your father's face? " Ye Feng said in disdain.

"Heh heh, I am despicable? Am I so despicable as to order a sixth heaven person to bully a third heaven weakling? I've seen idiots, but I've never seen such an idiot like you. Do you think you can be counted as a descendant of the Ye Family just because you do such dirty things and push it onto someone else? "Pah, I feel embarrassed!" Ye Yang threw Ye Chong to the ground, stomped on his chest and spat on his body.

"You bastard, how can you insult others like this? You're going too far, if I don't beat you up to the point that you're looking for your teeth all over the ground today, I won't be Ye Feng!" After he finished speaking, Ye Feng rushed towards Ye Yang.

"Everyone stop!" A cold shout shook everyone until their eardrums started to hurt. Ye Feng immediately stopped and Ye Yang also quietly hid a chopstick inside his sleeves.

The one who walked over was an old man in his fifties. He looked at the crowd with a furious expression.

"Greetings Fourth Elder!" Seeing the old man, all the Ye Family disciples bowed and saluted.

The Fourth Elder nodded his head slightly, then pointed to the unconscious Ye Chong and said, "Tell me, what is it all about? Don't you know that it is forbidden to use force in the dining hall? "

Ye Feng hurried forward and informed Fourth Elder Xing Lidao, "Reporting to Fourth Elder, all of this was Ye Yang's fault. "Ye Chong saw Ye Yang coming to the dining hall for his meal, saw his frail body coming to refill his plate, and greeted him warmly. He did not expect Ye Yang to launch a sneak attack, which resulted in Ye Chong getting severely injured by him."

The fourth elder turned around and glared at Ye Yang, "Is this true?"

Ye Yang remained indifferent to the angry look on the fourth elder's face. "Ask them what he said before I attacked him."

"What did Ye Chong say?" The Fourth Elder's gaze swept across the crowd, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

Noticing that no one said a word, the fourth elder pointed at Ye Feng and asked, "You tell me, what did Ye Chong say?"

Ye Feng had no choice, the Fourth Elder had already called them out, so he could only muster up his courage and say, "The two of them had a heated argument, it seems that Ye Chong scolded them as little bastards in a fit of anger."

"Four elders, you've heard it too. His words have severely insulted my parents, and he's even insulted our Ye family's leader. I remember there's a rule in the family called 'Offend from below' right?" "With this kind of rebellion, it shouldn't be wrong for me to fix it, right?" Ye Yang spread his hands and helplessly said.

"This …" The fourth elder didn't expect it to be this serious. According to the clan rules, those who dared to offend them would be expelled from the clan.

However, Ye Chong was a junior of the Great Elder's department, so it was not appropriate to deal with him that way. However, it would not be justified if he did not.

Hesitating for a moment, he said, "Ye Yang, see, how about this. Ye Chong did not know what to say either. Let him carry thirty sticks and send him to the back mountain for three months of confinement." You all have the same blood in your bodies, there's no need to make things too serious, right? "

As if expecting this outcome, Ye Yang nodded his head indifferently, "I will do as Fourth Elder commands. However, Fourth Elder will help me tell those people with a dirty mouth that if I encounter such a situation again, I will have my father handle it. By then, I won't even have the chance to regret."

Seeing Ye Yang loosen his mouth, the fourth elder also let out a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, "They definitely won't dare to do that anymore. You don't have to worry about that."

"Since that's the case, Ye Yang will take his leave." As he said this, he bowed towards the fourth elder. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw a mark on the fourth elder's boot.
