If there were people who believed that Song Yue's prestige only came from the Venerable Heavens Sect's background and his own talent, then they had underestimated this person.
Song Yue had a nickname in the West Heaven City, the Hundred Herbs Grandmaster.
In the cultivation world, the world had always respected the strong. Very few people were praised for their ability in other areas. From this nickname alone, it could be seen that Song Yue's intellect was admired by many.
"Difficult." A sigh was heard. In front of a stone tablet, Blue-clothed youth suddenly opened his eyes. A hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes. The divine ability and martial art contained in this stone tablet were too profound for him to understand.
After that, Blue-clothed youth stood up, turned around and looked at Song Yue, and discovered that there were two more people here. He subconsciously looked towards Qin Xuan and Chu Feng, and upon seeing that they were only at Middle Rank of Monarch Stage, he couldn't help but frown.
However, since the others were still cultivating, he couldn't say anything.
"Another failure?" Song Yue looked at Blue-clothed youth and asked. This person had tried to comprehend two stone tablets before, but all of them failed.
"What level of martial arts are these seven stone tablets?" Blue-clothed youth asked.
"A high quality scripture." For example, this grade of sacred art was very precious among the top powers and would normally not be easily spread out. But since the Hidden Heaven Pavilion had brought out something of equal value in exchange, some of the powers were willing to exchange it. After all, it would help strengthen their own strength.
Furthermore, the Vault of Heavens had promised not to reveal this to the public. Only the core members of the Vault of Heavens could practice this technique. Naturally, there would be exceptions.
For example, when the Vault of Heavens was open to the public.
Of course, even if the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was opened, one would still have to possess sufficient talent in order to have the qualifications to come into contact with such a top-tier martial art.
Blue-clothed youth had passed through many trials to reach the 72nd level. However, he failed even after comprehending three stone tablets. This could only be blamed on his own lack of comprehension. He couldn't blame the Heaven Repository Pavilion.
"Have you ever comprehended the stone steles here?" Blue-clothed youth looked curiously at Song Yue and asked.
"I, Song, am very inexperienced. I only faintly grasped onto a few things, but was unable to comprehend them." Song Yue replied with a smile.
Blue-clothed youth nodded slightly after hearing this. It seemed like it wasn't that his talent was lacking, but the martial arts in the stone monument were indeed very profound. Song Yue was known as Young Master Bai Xiao. His wisdom was extraordinary and he was unable to comprehend the stone monument.
Thinking of this, he felt much better.
Blue-clothed youth and Song Yue's conversation was done through private voice transmission, so Qin Xuan and Chu Feng didn't know what they were talking about.
"This person is the eldest disciple of the Star-Seizing Manor's master, Xia Yi Jun." Song Yue introduced the three of them, "These two are friends from the Nine Heavens Immortal Country, Qin Xuan and Chu Feng."
"Senior disciple of the Star-Seizing Manor." Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a strange light as he stared at Xia Yi Jun. This man was extremely handsome, with an aura that transcended the mortal world. His eyes glimmered with a dazzling light, clearly indicating that he was a cultivator of the Astral Realm.
He had originally planned to visit the Star-Seizing Manor in the future, but who would've thought that he would meet people from the Star-Seizing Manor here? What a coincidence.
When Qin Xuan and Chu Feng were sizing up Xia Yi Jun, he was also looking at the two of them. However, there wasn't much of a ripple in his eyes. After a few casual glances, he turned his gaze away.
It was obvious that he wasn't too interested in the two in front of him, and didn't even want to say a word.
Qin Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly. He naturally noticed the look in Xia Yi Jun's eyes. It was as though Xia Yi Jun was looking down on them from a high vantage point and did not even spare them a glance.
"Looks like this person is extremely arrogant." Qin Xuan muttered in his heart. This was especially evident when compared to Song Yue.
Song Yue and Xia Yi were of similar statuses and statuses, and even though Song Yue didn't know their backgrounds, he was still able to greet them with a smile. However, after Xia Yi Jun found out that they came from the Nine Heavens Immortal Country, his attitude was extremely arrogant, and he didn't even bother to say a single word.
Song Yue was much stronger than him in this aspect.
Perhaps it was because he was born in the Star-Seizing Manor, causing him to feel great self-confidence and pride. Someone who was at a lower cultivation realm than him didn't deserve his attention.
With Song Yue's intelligence, he was naturally able to tell the attitude of Xia Yi Jun towards Qin Xuan and his companion. A gentle smile appeared on Song Yue's face as he transmitted his voice to Qin Xuan and Xia Yi, "There are three empty stone tablets. Are you two interested in giving it a try?"
Just as Qin Xuan was about to reply, Xia Yi Jun lightly said, "The high quality and profound techniques. The person with Middle Rank of Monarch Stage has deep insights into the Dao, so trying to understand the martial arts in the stone tablet will be a waste of time."
As the sound of his voice faded, Song Yue's expression stiffened, and the atmosphere froze.
Even though Song Yue was intelligent, he didn't know how to resolve the current situation. After all, Xia Yi Jun's words were too direct and incisive. He simply looked down on Qin Xuan and Chu Feng and thought that it was impossible for them to comprehend the martial arts in the stone monument.
If it was anyone else, they would probably not be able to endure such words.
Qin Xuan and Chu Feng's expressions instantly turned cold. They didn't care about Song Yue's attitude earlier. However, the words Song Yue just said could be said to be a direct insult to them.
"To perceive three stone tablets in a row and still fail in the end, I can see just how poor your talent and perception is. I don't understand, just where do you have the confidence to teach others here?" Qin Xuan sarcastically said, "Or, do you think that you are unparalleled in the world? What you can't do, others can't?"
Seeing that Qin Xuan actually dared to refute him, Xia Yi Jun's expression became colder, his eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he arrogantly said: "I dare not claim to be unparalleled in the world, but my advice to you is more than enough, a mere Middle Rank of Monarch Stage character, what talent do you have?"
Hearing Xia Yi Jun's words, Qin Xuan suddenly revealed a smile, as if he was looking at an idiot.
Xia Yi Jun's High Rank of Monarch Stage was at the peak, and he and Chu Feng's were at the Middle Rank of Monarch Stage, so they both stood at the seventy-second floor.
However, Qin Xuan was too lazy to argue with Xia Yi Jun. After all, the rest of them were still cultivating, so they couldn't cause too much of a commotion.
Qin Xuan looked at Song Yue and asked, "I wonder if there are any other conditions for comprehending the stone monument?"
"There aren't any conditions. Since I've come to this level, I can freely meditate on the stone stele. Of course, the prerequisite is that no one is meditating on the stone stele." Song Yue replied. Hearing Qin Xuan's words, his eyes revealed a hint of interest.
Was he going to prove himself to Xia Yi Jun?
