Chapter 277: Chapter 272: Synthesis, the Human Race’s Ultimate Treasure! (4K)
“Master, your disciple has arrived.”
Lu Qinglian came to Lu Changsheng’s cultivation cave. Her cultivation had already reached the third level of the Void Refinement Realm, and she had begun practicing the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills. Now she already possessed the Three Revolutions Demon Body.
Once the Nine Revolutions Divine Body is cultivated, along with the Martial King Divine Physique, she would be strong enough to clash barehanded against high-grade Immortal Artifacts.
Lu Changsheng was currently cultivating the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art, and he had already achieved minor accomplishment in this Cultivation Technique.
This sword technique, after all, is a high-grade Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique, and to cultivate the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art to Great Perfection requires considerable Sword Dao Comprehension.
After Lu Qinglian’s arrival, Lu Changsheng took out a sword technique: “This is a high-grade Heavenly Rank sword technique from Mount Shu, the Nine Heavens Mystical Fire True Art. As your master, I impart this technique to you. Although you do not specialize in Sword Dao, you still need some understanding of it to counter sword cultivators.”
The sword technique taught by Lu Changsheng was grasped by his senior brother, Li Changye.
Li Changye, like Lu Qinglian, was naturally endowed with a Fire Spirit Root, making the Cultivation Technique compatible for him.
Moreover, this was one of Mount Shu’s unique Cultivation Techniques, which even the ordinary Mount Shu Elders might not be able to exchange for.
However, it was not a big deal for Lu Changsheng to obtain this sword technique, being the Sect Leader of Mount Shu.
“Mm.”
Lu Qinglian’s cultivation of the Martial King Divine Physique allowed her to grasp sword techniques very quickly.
[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Lu Qinglian the high-grade Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique, Nine Heavens Mystical Fire True Art, and have received the million-fold return reward: the high-grade Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique Divine Sword Fire Commanding Art. ]
A high-grade Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique directly triggered a million-fold return, receiving a high-grade Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique!
“The Divine Sword Fire Commanding Art?”
This was the third similar high-grade Immortal Rank sword technique that Lu Changsheng had obtained, the other two were the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art and the Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art.
“If I master the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art and then extend my understanding from it to the Divine Sword Fire Commanding Art and the Divine Sword Thunder Commanding Art, it should not take much time. Who knows, there might even be additional insights.”
“Lian, go and temper your body.”
Lu Changsheng had prepared the Body Tempering Elixir needed for the cultivation of the Nine Revolutions Divine Body and then continued to cultivate the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art.
In the fortieth year of seclusion, Lu Changsheng taught his eldest disciple, Lin Qingzhi, the Imperial Water Mysterious Sword technique and received the Divine Sword Commanding Water Art in return.
Lu Changsheng added this Cultivation Technique to his list of sword techniques to cultivate.
Lu Changsheng always felt that there was some connection between these similarly named sword techniques.
In Misty Peak, at the Qingxia Ancient Cave, Xia Ningxue was observing the mid-grade Immortal Rank sword technique left by Fairy Qingxia, the Green Dawn Sword Art.
After returning from Penglai Island, Xia Ningxue successfully passed through the six layers of Heavenly Tribulation and stepped into the Unity Realm.
After declining for a hundred thousand years, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion finally saw a great rise in power, now boasting two Unity Realm powerhouses.
With Xia Ningxue’s talent and the Sword Dao Comprehension returned by her Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills, she had almost completely comprehended the Green Dawn Sword Art.
“Huh?”
As Xia Ningxue stared at the sword mnemonic on the mountain wall, she felt something was amiss.
She formed a sword gesture with her fingers and flicked them forward. The Sword Qi emitted from her fingertips left a crack on the mountain wall.
With her current level of power, she was fully capable of controlling her strength, producing a sword wound about three feet in length.
She had memorized the Green Dawn Sword Art and could write it down at any time, hence she wasn’t concerned about destroying the mnemonic carved on the wall.
After shaving off three feet of the stone wall, there were actually other characters hidden inside.
Xia Ningxue’s eyes brightened: “Is this the mnemonic verse for another sword technique?”
As Xia Ningxue delved into the mood unveiled by the text, her Sword Dao Comprehension surged dramatically.
Elsewhere, Lu Changsheng, through the Dual Cultivation System, obtained a portion of the returned Sword Dao Comprehension.
Lu Changsheng was comprehending the sword intent left by the Ancestral Master in front of the myriad sword walls on Ten Thousand Swords Peak.
In the Void Refinement Realm, Lu Changsheng was unable to comprehend even a bit of the Ancestral Master’s sword intent and only comprehended the sword intents left by past Mount Shu Sect Leaders like Grandmaster Taixu and Grandmaster Tailin.
When Lu Changsheng reached the Unity Realm, he finally gained insights from the sword intent left by the Ancestral Master.
Leveraging the comprehension attained from the Ancestral Master’s sword intent and the Sword Dao Comprehension returned by the Dual Cultivation System, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation of the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art progressed at an astounding pace.
Lu Changsheng’s practice of the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art summoned the winds of the Nine Heavens. The gales howled, and the sea of clouds surged violently.
Great-uncle Situ Kong and Grandmaster Taiyuan, two Unity Realm powerhouses who were cultivating in seclusion, couldn’t help but be moved by this spectacle.
The sword technique cultivated by Lu Changsheng had exceeded their imagination.
“This must be a high-grade Immortal Rank sword technique.”
“A beginner at the Unity Realm simply can’t comprehend such a technique, can they?”
Situ Kong and Grandmaster Taiyuan were a bit shocked.
But they were not too astonished, as the shocks delivered by Lu Changsheng in the past had been numerous already.
Situ Kong and Grandmaster Taiyuan had grown almost numb to it.
“It seems his comprehension of the Sword Dao has surpassed yours,” said the elderly janitor sweeping leaves on Ten Thousand Swords Peak, pausing from his work to observe Lu Changsheng’s cultivation of the Supreme Sword Skills.
Situ Kong laughed bitterly. He had cultivated for five thousand years, only to be surpassed by a junior who had practiced for a little over three hundred, making him question his own talent.
In fact, having cultivated for the same duration of five thousand years, Situ Kong, who was at the second layer peak of the Unity Realm, and Penglai Sword Sect’s number one, Penglai Fairy, who was at the third layer, showed that his talent was considered unrivaled in all the great sects.
Lei Tiannan, the top figure of Wind Thunder Pavilion, who had cultivated for ten thousand years, was merely at the fourth layer of the Unity Realm.
Situ Kong’s talent was regarded as a once-in-a-generation prodigy among the major sects.
Grandmaster Taiyuan had cultivated for three thousand years, his cultivation being at the first layer of the Unity Realm. With another two thousand years, he hoped to surpass Penglai Fairy, indicating even higher talent.
However, compared to the monstrous genius Lu Changsheng who had appeared out of nowhere, they truly paled in comparison.
