Chapter 35: The Goal Pursued by the Younger Generation
In the bedroom, Zhang Yunlu sat cross-legged on the bed. On the nightstand beside her was a plate of stir-fried spiritual beans.
She held the copy of "Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method" given by Purple Vast True Lord in her hand, slowly flipping through it, occasionally tossing a bean into her mouth.
"Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method" is the introductory Magic of Supreme Dao Sect, the lineage of Purple Vast True Lord. Although it's just an introduction, it doesn't mean it's weak.
Once cultivated, it is infinitely wondrous. It can not only observe one's own shortcomings and predict the enemy's opportunities, but when cultivated to a profound level, it can also sense danger in the unseen.
However, because the book contained many technical terms not taught in school, she occasionally had to search for the meaning of those words on the Spiritual Net.
After reading it three or four times in a row, she finally got a general understanding.
Closing the book and placing it aside, she rubbed her temples.
Hoo~
Letting out a long breath, she got off the bed and stretched her body.
Are all Fa cultivation methods this troublesome?
She felt that sword techniques were more suitable for her.
Opening her hand, a long sword appeared in her grasp. The sword body was three chi and three cun long, ice-blue in color, crystal clear like carved crystal, emitting a faint chill.
In an instant, the temperature of the entire bedroom seemed to drop by a few degrees.
This was a High Grade magic weapon, and one of the prizes she received for winning first place in the sparring test this time.
Although the other prizes were also very good, she liked this one the most.
Injecting a trace of spiritual power, the sword body lit up with a faint light. The sword energy unleashed from it would carry a hint of ice-cold attribute.
If she had this sword during the sparring test today, could she have defeated Xiao Fan?
Zhang Yunlu simulated it in her mind, and ultimately felt that her chances of winning were not high. Pseudo Foundation Establishment is still Foundation Establishment; just that object manipulation technique alone would be difficult for her to block.
It would be great if there were a Pseudo Foundation Establishment phantom in the trial for her to try against, she thought, while rummaging through the cabinet by the bed for the jade box, taking out the red jade necklace and putting it around her neck.
Because enhancing combat power Magic Treasures were not allowed in the sparring test, and she couldn't tell if this red jade necklace counted, she simply left it at home.
Holding the sword, she walked out of the bedroom.
Zhang Xiu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, seemingly lost in thought, and only turned his head when he heard the sound.
"Xiao Lu, you... tried it?"
"Not yet. That 'Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method' is a bit complicated. I probably won't be able to achieve any results in a short time."
As for the more important reason, her current sword techniques were taught by Xu Xing. If she were to cultivate other methods, she would have to inform him first.
"Mmm, since it's a cultivation method given by a Combined Dao Senior, it's indeed wise to be cautious." Zhang Xiu felt much more at ease. "So, what are you doing now?"
"I'm going to try out this sword." Zhang Yunlu performed a sword flourish.
Reading that 'Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method' had given her a headache, she urgently needed to practice her sword for a while to relax.
And this was her new sword!
She would even try on new clothes when she bought them.
"Then don't go too far, and don't practice for too long."
"Don't worry, I'll just be up there."
She still planned to go to the rooftop. The sun was so strong at noon; she didn't believe anyone else would go up there.
When the sun wasn't so strong, she would find another excuse to go out.
…………
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Chi Jiuyu tossed and turned on her bed.
She found a small program on the Spiritual Net that could recover deleted chat history.
However, recovery took time, so she left it running in the background and continued browsing various posts on the Spiritual Net.
【Hehuan Sect cultivators are clearly looked down upon by cultivators of other professions, so why is their enrollment number still the highest every year?】
【Regarding the reason for the disappearance of Saint Emperor Yuan, I have the following six speculations...】
She clicked to open it, and the content of the post was only...
Sword Sect Future Sect Leader: "Idiot!"
Continuing to scroll down, Chi Jiuyu quickly saw a post that made her extremely angry.
【Within a hundred years, Sword Sect will be completely surpassed by Supreme Dao Sect】, Poster: Xiao Zhao who quietly refines methods.
The post analyzed the areas where Supreme Dao Sect was superior to Sword Sect from various angles.
"Nonsense!"
Chi Jiuyu sat up abruptly, her fingers tapping on the phone screen so fast they left afterimages, typing out a string of words, and then...
【You currently do not have permission to comment on this post】
Change account!
No.
Change account again!
Still no.
Damn!
All three of her accounts were blacklisted!
Chi Jiuyu was so angry that she fell back, her long legs kicking wildly at the air in front of her.
You dog, don't let this old lady meet you during the next Immortal Sect Grand Competition!
Just as she was about to post a reply to counterattack, a notification popped up, indicating that her chat history had been recovered.
"Jiu Yu, come down quickly."
Xu Xing's voice suddenly sounded in her ear, startling her so much that her hand trembled, and the phone hit her eye directly.
Fortunately, she was a Yuanying Stage cultivator, so this little pain was nothing to her.
She snatched the phone that had fallen on her face: "Coming, Shishu!"
Shishu didn't find out she was recovering chat history, did he?
…………
"Since he gave you this 'Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method', it's fine for you to practice it."
Zhang Yunlu sat opposite Xu Xing. On the table between them was the thread-bound yellow book given by Purple Vast True Lord.
He didn't open it. This magic was already in existence before he went into seclusion. Perhaps it had been improved, but the core was still the same.
"Will there be anything inappropriate if I practice this?"
"No, this is just an introductory method. Many people know about it, and even many people in Sword Sect know it."
The Cultivation Techniques and divine abilities between the major Immortal Sects actually circulated among each other.
Other Immortal Sects would also learn from some of Sword Sect's methods.
In fact, many years ago, he had even passed down some of the divine abilities and cultivation methods he created, but the result was that a large number of people died while practicing them.
Some of those who luckily succeeded relied on their cultivation to act arrogantly and oppressively, and he personally killed them all.
"But if he gives you a more advanced fundamental cultivation method, you can directly refuse, just say that you are a member of Sword Sect."
Divine abilities or magical techniques, neither is truly important.
What truly distinguishes a cultivator's profession is the fundamental cultivation method they cultivate.
Under his guidance, Zhang Yunlu's foundation was all prepared for a Sword Cultivator. Changing to Fa cultivation now would be too much of a waste.
"Shishu! Why did you call me down?!" Chi Jiuyu said, wearing flip-flops. "Huh, isn't this the first place winner of the sparring test at the school this morning?"
"I remember your name is Zhang Yunlu, right?"
Chi Jiuyu walked over very familiarly and sat down next to Zhang Yunlu, then picked up the "Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method" on the table.
"Isn't this what those idiots from Supreme Dao Sect... !"
She stopped herself in time. In front of Shishu, and with an outsider present, she still needed to pay attention to her image.
"You've fought against someone from this lineage." Xu Xing asked.
"Yes, I met one during the top 16 match of the last Immortal Sect Grand Competition. He was quite resilient and took several of my swords head-on!"
Zhang Yunlu examined her for a while: "You are Chi Jiuyu?!"
Chi Jiuyu raised an eyebrow.
"You recognize me?"
"Of course I recognize you!" Zhang Yunlu's tone carried a hint of excitement.
The Righteous Path Alliance had compiled a list specifically for cultivators under twenty-five years old.
Chi Jiuyu was ranked second on it.
She had once single-handedly wiped out all the alien creatures on an entire planet during her Golden Core Stage, and this feat was even reported on television.
She had achieved first place in her realm in two consecutive Immortal Sect Grand Competitions and was hailed as the most talented person in a thousand years.
She was the goal pursued by most young cultivators.
But after actually meeting her... why did she feel a little strange?
