《Conquer the World》Chapter 29: Improvement
Advertisement
“Hey, it’s too weak!” Ye Qingcheng just swung his arms but that swung filled with his brute force only!
This swung then changed into a little tempest which struck towards Ye Yingyuan. Right now, these two brothers were in an embroiled sparring!
Ye Yingyuan then moved his sword and the curtain of air then blocked the tempest.
“Airflow Curtain.” Ye Yingyuan quickly used his sword technique to make a defensive stance first. The tempest was blocked but after that, the curtain was shred by the same strike! It was not like the Airflow Curtain that Ye Yingyuan used weak but rather the force behind the tempest surpassed the defense capability of the curtain.
Ye Yingyuan’s pupils shrank and he prepared another stance to defend against this just one strike from his brother.
Ye Yingyuan then summoned his chain from his bag, combining it with his sword at the last second before he let out his energy and rotated his entire cultivation base! His feet pierced the ground and he held the hilt of the swords with both hands.
He held the sword and pointed it towards the strike which almost descended upon him!
“Air Compression!” Ye Yingyuan then used his energy to compress the air around him and placed it at the tip of his sword. This was the new technique that Ye Yingyuan recently developed.
“Big brother, please be careful because this is my new technique and still needs more development.” Shouted Ye Yingyuan to warn Ye Qingcheng. Instead of that, Ye Qingcheng just said, “No problem then, Little Yuan. Just do it!”
His eyes gleamed in excitement because his brother used his new technique to fight against him that still incomplete. ‘Good Little Yuan. You really did not disappoint me.’ Ye Qingcheng thought.
Ye Yingyuan then stabbed the sword and the tip collided with the tempest! The power of the collision was enough to raze the entire residence but Ye Canghai had a solution for that, so he closed the yard with his power to create a powerful barrier.
Then the tempest slowly disintegrated and this made Ye Yingyuan glad. ‘That was really deadly! Even that was just a swung from his arms.’
“Then you should try this too!” not satisfied with the tempest, Ye Qingcheng started another strike. This time, he even attacked with a palm. This palm was not like the swung of an arm like before but just like a normal person doing it.
Ye Yingyuan saw that but he still not let his guards down. ‘There is something more to that palm!’
Ye Yingyuan then used the remaining power from his Air Compression technique to send a piercing strike to buy some time. Ye Qingcheng had a smug face that signaled Ye Yingyuan that his attack would fail.
Then the palm met the strike directly and no surprise, the palm shattered the Air Compression strike quite easy. Not only that but the palm strike did not even reduce in terms of power and speed.
Then it hit Ye Yingyuan in his hands, he could even hear his bones turned to pieces and the pain that came with it was not something that can be endured by him. Ye Yingyuan bit his own tongue to alleviate the pain for a bit.

Fortunately, his hands still held the hilt of the sword but he just used it without the power of the sword after combined with the chains.
“Big Brother really worked hard.” Ye Yingyuan smiled even after receiving that. It was because this kind of power was what both his brother and the entire family need.
“But I also have some test to conduct!” Ye Yingyuan then spun his sword above his head and suddenly a figure of chains extending from the hilt that Ye Yinguan grabbed and then the blade could extend further.
The spinning sword with the chains as an extension to increase the range that the blade could reach now effectively stopped Ye Qingcheng from advancing.
“You still have some reserves, did you? Well, why don’t we try to see which is stronger your weapon or my physique!” Ye Qingcheng then threw himself forwards, charged towards Ye Yingyuan. Ye Yingyuan just used his sword to moved the opposite party to the place that he wanted.
Because Ye Yingyuan used the chains to extend the range, it also meant that his reaction to attack will drop significantly.
Ye Qingcheng then sent a kick to Ye Yingyuan’s stomach, aiming for the perfect one hit K.O moment. Ye Yingyuan smiled after saw that and changed the trajectory of the sword to met with the kick.
“Bind!” Ye Yingyuan then spun the sword along with its chains to tied the leg first. As more chains added to the binding then the movement would be limited and then he could launch a good counter attack.
But to his surprise, the chains could not completely limit the movement and the leg, in the end, hit Ye Yingyuan at his stomach!
Then he was thrown far and high. Even he felt the barrier behind as he crushed into it directly, sending the pain to his whole body. After that, his vision started to blur for a moment and even he almost let go of the sword that he held.
He did not know what happened after that but his body let out a heat which came from his pillar! Then from the heat came the appearance of fire but the color was not like ordinary flame because it was pure red!
This fire enveloped the entire body and even spread around. When Ye Yingyuan touched the ground again, his feet were not stable so he staggered for a moment before he stood up.
“What is this fire? I feel like that this fire was very familiar to me though.” Seeing his body let out such a violent fire but the person himself felt comfortable made Ye Yingyuan wondered if this was the doing of the pillar.
‘But my pillar now is weaker than any standard for Foundation Establishment cultivator!’
This fire stopped at the radius of five meters with Ye Yingyuan as the center. Ye Qingcheng was surprised by this fire and smashed the grounds to lift a part of it to become his shields. The ground then formed a wall-like form which defended him from that flame.
“What is this, Little Yuan? Do you mind explaining to me?” the more surprise his brother gave him, Ye Qingcheng grew more excited because he also wanted to test his own strength.

Ye Yingyuan then used this opportunity to let the fire flowed to his weapon. His chains then set ablaze and soon followed by the sword. The weapon was coated with this fire and Ye Yingyuan attacked with that.
“Please be careful with this! I'm not even trying this before.” Warned Ye Yingyuan. The sword came with a flash and good speed but it could not escape from the eyes of Ye Qingcheng. He placed his arms in parallel with his waist and his legs opened as wide as his shoulders.
He could even feel the heat from the fire that coated the sword and the first droplets of sweat flowed from his foreheads.
But this did not change the stance Ye Qingcheng currently in. He clenched his fist and he also added the power from his cultivation. With the addition from his cultivation, one could understand that even Ye Qingcheng regard the fire that Ye Yingyuan released was strong enough to injure someone that had a higher level at the same stage of cultivation.
“Burst Slash!” Ye Yingyuan swung his sword down to test this fire. But that was also the same time when Ye Qingcheng released both his fists to meet the sword without using any other weapons.
“Repel for me!” Ye Qingcheng just showed this move that was using both his fist simultaneously to redirect the sword. The smell of roasted meat could be smelled by Ye Qingcheng while he also furrowed his eyebrows and pursed his lips.
Soon after that, the sword finally moved back and Ye Yingyuan found out that his strength rapidly drained at every second the fire still lit in his weapon. He began to pant and his vision did not clear anymore!
‘I lose my stamina faster with the fire. Even the energy in my body almost depleted.’ Ye Yingyuan thought.
“Are you alright?” realizing that this was the first time Ye Yingyuan used it, Ye Qingcheng hastily moved closer and support Ye Yingyuan. Ye Yingyuan could barely realize the sensation in his skin because it turned out that his skin also went numb.
“Just unexpected result.” Replied Ye Yingyuan with a slight smile. But if not for this moment then Ye Yingyuan would not realize the after effect of using his new found strength!
Then the barrier was removed and the appearance of both Ye Canghai and Yu Feng, as well as Ye Guhan and Ye Xiaobai, could be seen.
This made both the brothers fell into confusion especially after seeing the figure of Ye Xiaobai. But Ye Xiaobai just looked at them with a strong urge to fight, like someone who wanted to see the other achievement after not meeting for a long time.
“You two did good there.” Ye Canghai said with his smile. Then there was also the comment from their mother about the performance of Ye Qingcheng.
“You son needs to be educated again! You still doing your stance the same as before without much change in it!” she just said it casually with no reservation.
“What did I do wrong, Mother? Please just tell me!” with a reverence and held the utmost importance to his parents especially his mother, Ye Qingcheng said with soft and pleasing words.
“When you try to repel the strike from above, you should make yourself more firm than your normal stance! It was because you wanted to not injure your brother and held yourself that you still hesitate to do it!”
When Ye Yingyuan heard that, he felt terrified. “Then does that mean Big Brother just using a portion of his strength?” asked Ye Yingyuan.
“Of course he is! But you both improved and that made Mother satisfied.” Said Yu Feng with a smile. It was true that the brothers improved during the two months time and they got better and stronger than before.
“Oh, you also notice it right?” Ye Canghai then pointed at Ye Xiaobai while staring at both Ye Yingyuan and Ye Qingcheng. Both of them then nodded and also their stares met at the same time.
‘Is he still feeling guilty for that?’ because of a little familiarity among the, they could at least understand the general thought of each other.
“Brother, why don’t let my son also spar with yours?” how could Ye Guhan not understand it. He proposed this to let his son unleash the burden from his heart. Then Ye Canghai stunned before asked, “Is that fine for him? I have this strange feeling that your son will do anything for the sake of our family and that was why I told you this.”
But Ye Xiaobai then said, “Please let me spar, Uncle, Father. I really wanted to try my own method.”
“But what about his health? Will he be fine just because he had recovered?” this time even Yu Feng asked with a concern.
“Yes, because I wanted to spar with Ye Yingyuan. I felt the aura that only Foundation Establishment cultivator emitted from him, so it was true that he had broken through.” In his heart, even Ye Xiaobai could only bitterly accept this.
“Why me?” Ye Yingyuan knew that the only offensive capability Ye Xiaobai had was the items he refined. Other than that, he would be easily defeated even by ordinary cultivators at the same stage!
“Because I found that your weapon could be fused as one! I wanted to learn it!” with this as the reason Ye Xiaobai then walked to the yard. But Ye Yingyuan’s face now turned pale after hearing the reason.
‘My method?’ this made him think about the process to create this technique. But of course, only Ye Yingyuan as the user knew the truth behind it.

A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.
