"Ugh …" How did Second Elder know about the Dragon Elephant Seal? " Ye Hao laughed foolishly and scratched his head.

Hearing this, the old man's face twitched as he snappily snorted, "Although we are unable to obtain the cultivation method for this Dragon Elephant Seal, but we can naturally know some basic information."

With that, the old man said in disbelief: "You really obtained the cultivation method?"

Ye Hao smiled and nodded.

"You brat …" "What a great lucky chance." The second elder was stunned for a long time before letting out a long sigh and a bitter laugh, "This Dragon Elephant Seal has been quiet in this place for an unknown amount of time. I never thought that you would actually obtain it."

"This cultivation method …" The second elder shook his head at himself as soon as he said this, "I'm too old for this. A secret art of this level naturally cannot be transmitted by mouth."

Indeed, although Ye Hao knew about the cultivation method of the Dragon Elephant Seal, it was still a spiritual imprint that could only be understood by others and was extremely magical. Even if he wanted to pass it on to others, he would still be able to pass it on orally.

Ye Hao rubbed his nose and said somewhat embarrassedly: "Second Elder, what about this jade slip?"

Receiving the jade slip, the Second Elder tried to probe a strand of his soul consciousness, but as usual, there was nothing to be gained.

After putting the jade slip back into its original place, the old man looked at Ye Hao with a strange look in his eyes and asked hesitantly: "Ye Hao, why is there such a change in this jade slip in your hands?"

"This... I don't know. " Ye Hao scratched his head in confusion.

The Second Elder frowned and thought, "This kind of inheritance jade slip can detect the possessor's bloodline, Innate Ability, and talent … "This series of reasons."

As he said this, he looked at Ye Hao with a strange expression. The old man couldn't understand.

In terms of bloodline, this was impossible because the Ye Family had obtained this jade slip by chance in the past. Moreover, Ye Yunfeng had tried to obtain it in the past, but still failed to do so.

In terms of innate talent, could it be that the youth in front of him was even more extraordinary than the Qilin, Ye Tianlin?

Thinking of this, the Second Elder could not help but shake his head.

"Whatever, it's your lucky chance that you can obtain it." Finally, after pondering for a long time, the old man still did not have a clue. He let out a long sigh and looked at Ye Ze, "Kid, what about you?"

When Ye Ze heard this, he hurriedly handed the jade letter to the old man and respectfully said, "Second Elder, I choose this ability."

"Collapsing Mountain?" Receiving the jade slip, the second elder examined it for a moment before nodding his head: "This combination of attack and defense is quite suitable for you."

With that, the old man gently touched the jade slip with his withered palm. Suddenly, the jade slip flashed with a burst of light, as if a seal had been undone. A ray of light shot out from the jade slip and entered the center of Ye Ze's brow.

"..."

"Second Elder, then we'll take our leave." On the first floor of the pavilion, after Ye Hao and Ye Ze selected the sacred art, they cupped their hands towards the old man and said their goodbyes.

"Go. Cultivate diligently. Help the family shoulder a burden as soon as possible." Sitting cross-legged on the prayer mat, the second elder regained his former dignity and after a few more words of warning, he closed his eyes and did not say another word.

The two of them bowed respectfully. Both Ye Ze and Ye Hao were very satisfied with their harvest this time. With such abundant cultivation resources, it's no wonder that all the disciples of the Ye family dreamed of becoming the disciples of the Martial Hall.

Calming himself down, the two stepped out of the pavilion. The moment they stepped onto the open ground, Ye Hao saw dozens of Martial Hall disciples looking at them with different expressions.

At the front, Ye Tianlin, with his hands behind his back and his clothes fluttering in the wind, was staring at him coldly.

Ye Hao's eyes also narrowed slightly when he sensed the killing intent that filled the former's eyes. A cold glow flickered but he did not back down.

Ye Hao was very clear that there would be a fight between him and Ye Tianlin sooner or later. The Great Elder wanted to usurp the position of the clan leader, and Ye Peng had even tried to kill him.

Even though their two branches had yet to truly fall out, they had already been secretly waiting for Ye Tianlin to enter the Sky Profound Academy in half a year and he would definitely erupt.

At that time, even if his grandfather was in the Dao Soul Realm, he would not be able to protect himself, much less someone of his insignificant cultivation level.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao's black eyes flashed with killing intent. The way they looked at each other made the air seem colder.

"Hehe, our genius Ye, I wonder what skill he chose this time?" At this time, the youth behind Ye Tianlin, who had a dark expression on his face, suddenly spoke in a teasing tone, causing the Martial Hall disciples to become curious.

Ye Hao coldly swept his eyes over the young man who was following behind Ye Tianlin. Ye Hao was too lazy to bother with him. He called out to Ye Ze and walked towards the entrance.

"Tsk tsk, it must be some ordinary low-rank divine ability that caused you to be so embarrassed to speak, right?" The young man's blood-red lips curved up. He stepped forward a few steps to stand in front of Ye Hao, playing around with him. "Also, did I allow you to leave?"

Ye Hao's gaze turned sharp as he stared at the young man, "Do I need your permission to leave or not?"

"He really is very arrogant."

The young man's scarlet lips curled as he lazily said: "You are a new disciple of the Martial Hall. You must have the approval of Young Master Lin before you can leave."

Hearing this, Ye Hao couldn't help but sneer: "You like being a dog, so you think everyone is the same as you?"

The young man's face darkened. Ye Hao slapped his storage bag and a long spear covered in spiritual power appeared in his hand. His black eyes revealed a sharp light as he coldly said, "If you want to fight, please accompany me."

"They're all blocking the way, are they that bored?" At that moment, the authoritative voice of the Second Elder suddenly came out from within the tower, causing the expressions of the crowd to turn cold.

Second Elder was in charge of the Martial Hall and was known for being strict. No matter how arrogant and proud the disciples were, they were still incomparably respectful when facing the old man.

At this time, not to mention the others, even Ye Tianlin couldn't help but squint in the direction of the pavilion. He then slowly walked to Ye Hao's side and lowered his voice as he said with an incomparably sinister tone: "My younger brother, Ye Peng …" Was it you who used this gun to kill me? "

Ye Hao's expression was indifferent. There was not the slightest bit of emotion on his face. However, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

"It's fine if you don't admit it, because regardless of whether you are or not, I want you to accompany him in death. No one can protect you." Ye Tianlin's expression was sinister as he gave a fiendish smile before walking away.

As for the youth with a dark expression, he pursed his scarlet lips and made a provocative action towards Ye Hao before leaving.

Seeing the two youths behind Ye Tianlin disappear from his line of sight, Ye Hao's expression also turned grave. He sneered in his heart: "That will depend on whether or not you can obtain a placing in the Tianxuan Academy half a year from now."

Ye Hao understood that Ye Tianlin's killing intent towards him had already reached its peak. If he were to obtain a placing in the Sky Profound Academy half a year later, his situation would definitely be extremely dangerous.

When he thought here, he did not delay any longer and left the Martial Hall together with Ye Ze. There was still half a year left. He must reach the peak of the Body Tempering stage in this short period of time. Otherwise … It was impossible to fight against Ye Tianlin.

At this moment, outside of the Martial Hall, Ye Tianlin frowned and took a step forward. After pondering for a while, he suddenly spoke to the two youths behind him, "Ye Hui, Ye Ren, the two of you must keep an eye on Ye Hao. If he leaves the Ye Clan alone …"

"As long as I don't kill him, everything will be fine, right?" The youth with the dark expression grinned.

"Then, let him be crippled once again." A bloodthirsty light shone from Ye Hui's eyes as he coldly laughed.

Ye Tianlin nodded his head. Although Ye Hao's cultivation level was currently not high, he still felt uneasy. In order to stabilize Ye Yunfeng, he temporarily could not kill Ye Hao. Thus, he could only come up with this plan.

But like this, Ye Tianlin felt more at ease, after all, the two people behind him had the strength of Tempered Body 8th Layer. But like this, Ye Tianlin felt more at ease, after all, the two behind him had the strength of Tempered Body 8th Layer.

"You don't have much time left, enjoy yourself …"

"..."

At this time, Ye Hao said goodbye to Ye Ze and returned to his own room, sitting cross-legged with a serious expression.

Although his gains from entering the Martial Hall had made him extremely happy, the pressure that Ye Tianlin had given him had completely dispersed his joy.

He had too little time left. If he wanted to reach the Great Perfection of the Body Tempering stage in half a year, even if Ye Hao were to spread the news, the entire Black Lake City would think that he had gone insane and gone completely crazy.

One must know that the later one cultivated to the late stage of the Body Tempering Stage, the harder it would be to break through. After reaching the sixth level of the Body Tempering Stage, it would be impossible for one to break through to the next realm within a year or so.

"No matter what, I have to give it a try."

Right now, there was no way for him to retreat. He had to do everything he could to increase his own strength as much as possible.

"My heart is in turmoil, I still have to break through to Tempered Body 7th Layer first." After four years of experience, Ye Hao had become extremely calm. He knew that the more critical the situation was, the more he couldn't panic.

Currently, although he had two abilities, the Cloud Pursuing Steps and the Dragon Elephant Seal, if he wanted to cultivate it, he would need to at least break through to the Seventh Layer of Body Tempering.

Body Tempering Stage, the sixth and seventh levels were an extremely obvious divide.

The strength of both bodies determined that a cultivator at the sixth level of the Body Tempering stage could only utilize their own Qi and blood, while a person at the seventh level could already withstand a large amount of the Spiritual Energy of the world.

Although the strength of Ye Hao's body, under the baptism of the mysterious drop of blood essence, was not much weaker than a Tempered Body 8th Layer cultivator.

However, he only had a weak body. In terms of the amount of spiritual energy he absorbed, he was weaker than cultivators at the seventh layer of Body Tempering, so it wasn't enough for him to cultivate.

Thinking about this, Ye Hao did not delay any longer and took out two fist-sized red fruits from his storage bag. These fruits were indeed Tier 1 spiritual herbs, the Scarlet Blood Fruit.

Of these two Scarlet Blood Fruits, one had been gifted by Ye Yunfeng that day, and the other was a cultivation resource distributed by the Martial Hall. As Ye Hao smelled the rich medicinal fragrance that filled the room, the blood in his body began to stir.

If he were to cultivate normally, it would take a while for him to break through to Tempered Body 7th Layer. However, with these two Scarlet Blood Fruits, the process would be greatly shortened.

Without any reluctance, Ye Hao put one of the Blood Vermillion Fruits into his mouth and bit down. Immediately, a rich medicinal fragrance spread out, and the melted fruit meat in his mouth made him salivate, swallowing the Blood Vermillion Fruit in a few bites.

He licked his lips as he savored the endless aftertaste, and he quickly felt the fruit he swallowed transform into a formidable blood energy that flowed within his body.

When he realized this, Ye Hao quickly restrained his mind, closed his eyes, and started to refine the power.
