Sword control is every Cultivator's dream.
Especially for Qi Refining Cultivators.
In the eyes of Qi Refining Stage Disciples, only those who could step on Flying Swords and travel thousands of miles in an instant could be called Immortals.
"Let me try!"
Xu Kunlun, full of excitement, waved his hand.
"Open..."
A small Flying Sword instantly transformed into three feet long, then landed in the Void Realm in front of him.
Xu Kunlun stepped onto it, and with a thought of his Divine Thought, he shot out over a dozen feet with a boom.
Then...
Bang...
He, along with the sword, swept past the gate of Yu Ning Palace and crashed heavily into a towering ancient tree outside the gate.
Rustle...
The leaves on the tree trembled, and many dry branches and bark fell to the ground like rain.
Meanwhile, Xu Kunlun was clutching his head, huddled on the ground, crying out in pain: "Ah... It hurts so much... I'm dying from the pain..."
Yu Ning led the group out of the palace, grumbling: "Why didn't you fall to your death... So impatient, couldn't you let me finish speaking?"
Wuwuwu...
Xu Kunlun sat on the ground, holding his head.
Yu Ning's heart ached again, and she walked over to him, rubbing his head twice, and asked: "Feeling better?"
Xu Kunlun said: "Much better!"
"Alright, listen to me finish. When will you ever change this impatient habit of yours, heavens!" Yu Ning took a deep breath and said: "After reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, your Divine Thought can expand to a hundred feet in radius, and then you can learn this 【Sword Control Spell】!"
"Only after learning the Sword Control Spell can you fly on a sword!"
Xu Kunlun said with a bitter face: "Master, you didn't say so earlier!"
Yu Ning said: "You didn't give me a chance to finish!"
"Enough!"
She glared fiercely at Xu Kunlun, then took out a paper book from her Storage Pouch and said: "This is the Sword Control Method. Take it and make a copy..."
"Zhao Ling'er, you copy one too!"
"Then bring the original back to me!"
"And you two!" Yu Ning looked at He Pingsheng and Tian Xiaoqing: "You two go copy it together too. When you Break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage later, it'll save you from crashing into trees again!"
Tian Xiaoqing mumbled: "I wouldn't!"
"Tian Xiaoqing, what are you mumbling about?" Yu Ning said: "Hurry back and cultivate properly for me, strive to improve your cultivation as soon as possible!"
"Yes, Master!"
The four bid farewell to Yu Ning and rushed into Zhao Ling'er's boudoir, each taking out paper and pen to begin copying the 【Sword Control Method】.
He Pingsheng had an idea.
Master just said that after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, when Divine Thought expands to a hundred feet, one can fly with a sword.
Although I haven't reached the Foundation Establishment Stage yet, my Divine Thought also extends a hundred feet.
So... can I also fly with a sword now?
Hmm...
This is worth a try.
Taking the copied Sword Control Method back to his room, He Pingsheng directly threw the Sword Control Method into the gathering treasure basin, hoping that the gathering treasure basin could strengthen one by the next day.
It was indeed strengthened the next day.
One became two.
However, the content did not change.
The Sword Control Method was still the Sword Control Method.
He Pingsheng was surprised, but after a moment's thought, he roughly guessed the reason: perhaps because the Sword Control Method was too simple, with no room for strengthening, the gathering treasure basin did not strengthen it, but merely turned one into two.
Let's go into seclusion!
Half a year later, He Pingsheng learned the 【Sword Control Spell】.
Of course, during these six months, he not only learned the Sword Control Spell but also the 【Great Banner Rolling Thunder Technique】 and refined the 【Holy Wood Shield】.
He did three things in total!
Then, He Pingsheng walked out of the courtyard.
He hooked his pinky finger into his mouth and blew hard, a long whistle instantly echoing across the sky.
Two snow-white flying birds suddenly flew over from among the white clouds, landing around He Pingsheng's body, affectionately circling in front of him.
These two birds had also grown quite a bit, and the Time feathers on their heads were even brighter.
Moreover, during these six years, He Pingsheng had fed them many Heaven And Earth Treasures, and both of them had also reached a cultivation level equivalent to roughly the Qi Refining Stage Seventh Layer in humans.
Flying with a load was absolutely no problem.
"Dabai, take me..."
He Pingsheng jumped onto Dabai's back. Dabai flapped its wings fiercely and soared into the sky again, its speed much faster than the strengthened paper crane.
And He Pingsheng didn't need to control it with his Divine Thought.
In just a dozen breaths' Time, this pair of Snow Peng carried He Pingsheng out of Xiuzhu Peak and to a nearby mountaintop.
He Pingsheng landed on the mountaintop!
The two Snow Peng stood beside him.
Let's try it!
See if I, a Qi Refining Stage Disciple, can fly with a sword.
"Open..."
He Pingsheng let out a soft cry.
The top-grade Magical Artifact small sword expanded, becoming three feet long and three inches wide.
Then it floated in front of He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng cautiously stepped onto it, while simultaneously expanding his Divine Thought, controlling the Flying Sword using the method from the 【Sword Control Method】.
The Flying Sword was exceptionally stable.
"Go..."
He Pingsheng controlled the Flying Sword, slowly flying forward.
The Flying Sword wobbled out from the mountaintop.
Two white Snow Peng flew out simultaneously, directly beneath He Pingsheng's body, fearing that He Pingsheng would fall from the Flying Sword.
Of course, even if he fell, there was no fear, as the two Snow Peng below would catch him.
Fortunately, he did not fall.
Although He Pingsheng's speed in controlling the sword was slow, it was very stable.
After about half an incense stick's worth of Time, he became increasingly proficient with the Sword Control Method.
His speed naturally became faster and faster.
Whoosh...
He Pingsheng and the Flying Sword became one, transforming into a streak of light that swept through the valley.
In a single thought, mountains and rivers seemed to flow backward.
Shuttling between white clouds and the Void Realm, He Pingsheng felt an unprecedented exhilaration, a different sensation from riding the paper crane.
This feeling was: more controllable.
It felt more like he was flying himself.
This is great.
He Pingsheng flew with his sword, instantly sweeping past countless mountains.
The two Snow Peng, one on the left and one on the right, accompanied him, shuttling between the mountain peaks.
From afar, he truly looked like an Immortal descending to the world, ethereal and transcendent.
"This is amazing!" He Pingsheng shouted, then landed back on the Snow Peng's back.
It was fun, but it consumed a lot of Divine Thought.
He Pingsheng estimated that with his current Divine Thought strength, he could only sustain two hours of flight at most.
But that was enough.
He could fly to Matou Mountain Market in an hour.
"Dabai... stop at that cliff ahead!" He Pingsheng directed the Snow Peng, and soon landed on a mountaintop.
He didn't just come out today to try out the Sword Control Method.
He also wanted to try out the 【Great Banner Rolling Thunder Technique】.
Standing on this unknown mountaintop, He Pingsheng's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked into the distance.
He still remembered that when he first learned his first Spell, the Fire Crow Technique, he walked alone in the snow-covered mountains for several days and nights to find a secluded spot to practice the Spell.
How fast Time flies, twelve years have passed in a blink of an eye.
