Chapter 45: A Sword Cultivator Above Combined Dao
Midnight, the bright moon hung high, on the rooftop.
Zhang Yunlu sat facing the moon, her eyes tightly closed, a thin layer of silver gauze seemed to cover her body, and a wisp of faint purple energy flowed around her.
After being severely beaten several times, she finally chose to Cultivate the somewhat troublesome Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method, and had already absorbed a wisp of purple energy at sunrise this morning to begin.
At sunrise, the purple energy is the most gentle and suitable for cultivation. By noon, the purple energy mixes with the sun's essence, becoming extremely violent, making it basically unusable for Qi Refining stage cultivators.
And at sunset, the collected purple energy loses its vibrant vitality and the meaning of nascent life, making it even less useful.
However, even the purple energy at sunrise is mixed with traces of scorching sun essence, which must be slowly ground away with spiritual power before it can be refined into the fragile eyes.
Zhang Yunlu was currently using a faster method – drawing in the true radiance of the moon's essence to wear away the sun's essence in the purple energy. This was a secret transmission method of the Purple Vast True Lord's lineage.
Besides being able to Cultivate the Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method faster, it could also, to some extent, simulate the process of drawing in the sun's essence and moon's radiance during subsequent cultivation.
Exhale~
Inhale~
As Zhang Yunlu exhaled and inhaled, the wisp of purple energy surrounding her became increasingly pure.
"Entering the path so quickly, she should indeed join my Supreme Dao Sect." High in the sky, Purple Vast True Lord looked at Zhang Yunlu, his eyes filled with admiration.
Why practice swordsmanship!
Those Sword Cultivators are not only arrogant, but besides being a little handsome, how are they different from Body Cultivator brutes? How can they compare to the demeanor of us Fa cultivation who control the universe and follow our hearts with myriad techniques.
Purple Vast True Lord's eyes flowed with purple energy as he looked at the wisp of purple energy that was constantly becoming purer.
Cultivating this Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method should be done with proper pacing, an hour a day is enough. He had made a note of this in the book. According to the current progress...
"It should reach minor completion in three more days."
However, the next moment, the true radiance of the moon's essence surged, and the silver gauze formed by the moon's radiance on Zhang Yunlu's body became almost tangible. Her face turned pale, and her eyebrows and hair were covered in a layer of white frost.
Clearly, she felt the progress was too slow, so she drew in more of the moon's radiance.
'Being too hasty... We Fa cultivation should maintain a calm state of mind and proceed step by step when cultivating techniques.'
'The moon's radiance is extremely cold. Doing this might even harm her body.'
'However, considering she has just obtained the wonderful method and is a bit too eager for quick results, it's not entirely impossible...'
As Purple Vast True Lord's thoughts turned, he saw the wisp of flowing purple energy constantly purifying, several times faster than before.
In just three minutes, that wisp of purple energy had removed all the scorching sun essence. The silver gauze condensed by the moon's radiance dissipated, and Zhang Yunlu formed a hand seal with her fingers. The purple energy instantly entered her eyes.
Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method, minor completion!
Achieved?
'Although she was a bit reckless, it can be considered as having the spirit of brave and diligent progress. Moreover, what cultivation doesn't involve taking risks?' Purple Vast True Lord slowly nodded.
On the rooftop, Zhang Yunlu slowly got up, her eyes completely turned purple, distant and profound, far beyond what they were in the bathroom before.
During the trial, she had been observing the Sword Cultivator phantom. Regarding the Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method, although it wasn't as intuitive as swordsmanship, she could still gain some experience.
Exhale~
She exhaled a breath of white cold air. Her slightly pale face returned to normal, and the white frost on her hair and eyebrows slowly melted.
Swish!
A cold light flashed. The crystal-like sword light was like a swimming dragon. The sword moves were ethereal yet not lacking in ferocity.
Indeed, swinging a sword is the most exhilarating!
Purple Vast True Lord: "..."
'After all, this is her family's inherited swordsmanship. Forcing her to give it up would be a bit too much.'
'Moreover, there are also cultivators among Fa cultivation who have cultivated a few sword techniques.'
His thoughts stirred, and Purple Vast True Lord constantly tried to convince himself. The next moment, he suddenly froze, his face instantly becoming extremely ugly.
Wrong!
Why was he experiencing so many emotional fluctuations because of a Qi Training cultivator's cultivation? Even if she was a Genius, it shouldn't be like this.
Heart Demon!
Immediately, he had no desire to watch further and turned into a wisp of purple energy, drifting away.
...
The night grew deeper. In the villa, Chi Jiuyu had entered the trial and was being subjected to torture.
Facing the overwhelming sword light that was like the sun falling, she still hadn't come up with many ways to deal with it.
However, she had made significant progress in the parts related to the Tai Xu Sword Canon, so even though she couldn't withstand a single sword strike each time, she was still enjoying it.
Soon, Zhang Yunlu also entered the trial. The Flowing Cloud Swordplay she had been taught back then was now being performed very differently.
And the opponent she was facing had changed from the minor completion of the Zi Yuan Guan Qi Method to the great completion. Perhaps today she could even reach the perfect level?
Xu Xing looked outwards, revealing a slight smile.
The Mystic Realm is about to open. The geniuses gathered here and the lucky ones who have obtained opportunities will compete. Who is stronger, who is weaker, who will win, who will lose?
He was quite looking forward to it.
...
Municipal Building, Conference Room.
The Mayor, the Mayor's secretary, the Principal of Xuanjian City Third Middle School, the Hall Master and two Deputy Hall Masters of the Si Lv Hall, and almost all the Celestial Transformation Stage cultivators in Xuanjian City were here.
Everyone was silent, seemingly waiting for something.
Only the Deputy Hall Master of the Si Lv Hall, who looked like an old man, would occasionally glance at the Hall Master of the Si Lv Hall sitting beside him.
The Sword Sect's order had come down.
Since the matter of the Little Martial Grand-Aunt hadn't happened yet, and considering the flaws in the Lin family's Cultivation Technique, no overly severe punishment was given.
It was just that Lin Qiuxian had to be confined for five more days.
It could be said to be completely insignificant.
Of course, if it were just this matter, there would be no need to gather so many people.
The important thing was another matter.
Because things in Xuanjian City had been happening one after another recently, the Sword Sect had directly sent someone over.
An Elder Fanxu, and another, who had just returned from the Starry Sky Battlefield, had been promoted to above Combined Dao, and was extremely skilled in the path of killing – the Deputy Hall Master of the Zhizhang Hall of the Sword Sect!
And the Zhizhang Hall mentioned here was not a branch like the Si Lv Hall in Xuanjian City, but the main hall within the Sect.
Whoosh~
A gentle breeze blew, and the many Celestial Transformation Stage cultivators in the conference room felt a stinging sensation on their faces. Their souls even trembled slightly, as if they were being targeted by some extremely terrifying existence.
"Everyone, you've waited a long time."
The conference room door opened, and a middle-aged man walked in, wearing rough cloth clothes, carrying a long sword on his back, and with a yellow gourd hanging from his waist. He had a rough appearance and bright eyes, and the whole person looked like a wandering swordsman from the ancient cultivation world, unrestrained and free.
Following behind him was a young man wearing the Sword Sect Elder's uniform. Although he looked young, he was actually an Elder Fanxu.
Everyone stood up and bowed in unison.
"Greetings to the two Seniors." These were the cultivators who had not joined the Sword Sect.
"Greetings, Shishu, Little Martial Grand-Aunt." These were the cultivators of the Sword Sect.
"We are all cultivators, everyone doesn't need to be so polite." The rough Sword Cultivator pressed his hands down virtually, signaling everyone to sit down. "I, Li, am here only to stabilize the situation, not to do anything that would make everyone uneasy. You can rest assured."
"..."
Everyone was silent. How were they supposed to respond to this!
"May I ask, Little Martial Grand-Aunt, what should be done about the Little Martial Grand-Aunt?" asked the Deputy Hall Master of the Si Lv Hall, who looked like an old man.
"Little Martial Aunt..." The rough Sword Cultivator paused. "Little Martial Aunt has her own matters to attend to. Everyone just needs not to disturb her."
