Day after day passed.
Under Chu Kuangren's training, the group of Daoists seemed to live like a year. Every day was like an abyss of suffering.
But in this process, they also discovered that the speed of their improvement was simply beyond their imagination.
In less than three months, everyone had at least broken through a small realm, and their combat strength had increased by leaps and bounds.
Especially Shang Qingxue.
She was only a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator when she first arrived, but now she was a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, which was an entire realm higher.
If word of this got out, it would probably scare people to death.
On this day.
Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, and the others were still fighting with the sword qi clone. More than a month ago, they were far from being a match for the sword qi clone in a one-on-one fight. But now, they were able to fight back and forth.
Meanwhile, at another location.
Shang Qingxue was still suffering in the Scorching Purgatory.
Waves of cold air surrounded her body, isolating her from the scorching heat. Now, she could endure for eight hours in the Scorching Purgatory without suffering any injuries. She had improved a lot.
Far away.
On a mountain peak.
Chu Kuangren observed everyone's training progress.
"It's a little tough, but the results are good."
It was more than just a little tough.
These days, Nangong Huang and the others had narrowly escaped death several times. It was only because Chu Kuangren had the Spring Breeze Healing Technique that he dared to train like this. If it were any other orthodoxy, they would not have dared to do so.
He was afraid that he would accidentally destroy these precious geniuses.
"Master, this is the guqin that you wanted."
At that moment, Lan Yu walked up with a guqin in her hands.
"Oh, it's done."
Chu Kuangren's eyes lit up when he saw the guqin.
Ever since he drew the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords, he had always wanted a guqin to perform, so he asked Elder Ruyan to custom-make one for him.
It took almost a month, but it was finally done.
He took the guqin and studied it carefully.
Since it took Elder Ruyan a month to get someone to custom-make it, it was naturally extraordinary. The materials and craftsmanship were top-notch.
The guqin was the most common seven-stringed guqin. It was pitch-black and glowed. Although it was made of wood, it had a metallic texture.
With a flick of his finger, a loud clang reverberated.
The timbre was loose and powerful, with a lingering charm, without the slightest static.
Lan Yu looked at Chu Kuangren in surprise. After following Chu Kuangren for so many years, this was the first time she found out that Chu Kuangren could play the guqin.
"Lan Yu, do you want to hear me play a song?"
"Yes."
Lan Yu nodded.
"Then I'll play a song for you."
Chu Kuangren sat on the mountain peak with the guqin across his knees. His fingers were placed on the strings of the guqin and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was trying to comprehend something.
Then, a mysterious Daoist Rhyme spread out from his body.
The moment he opened his eyes, his ten fingers began to move. One after another, extremely beautiful musical notes poured out from his ten fingers and surrounded the world.
The sound of the zither was vast and majestic, like the high mountains and flowing water.
The moment the sound of the zither rang out, the wind stopped, the clouds stopped, and aside from the vast sound of the zither, there was no other sound in the world.
In the Black Heaven Sect.
Second Forefather, Third Forefather, and the others exclaimed in surprise.
"Zither music? Where did the zither music come from?"
"It's that little guy playing the guqin. He can even play the guqin?"
"Hold on, this zither music …"
Black Heaven's Second Forefather and the others could no longer hold themselves back after listening to the zither music. They immediately rushed out of the cottage and headed towards Chu Kuangren's direction.
At the same time, Fairfrost Sage seemed to have sensed something as well and left the valley.
The few Sages and Honorable Supremes of the Black Heaven Sect arrived at Chu Kuangren's location and looked at Chu Kuangren who was playing the guqin in shock.
That person was dressed in white, and his fingers were strumming the guqin. Boundless music reverberated in the surroundings, but more importantly, they could sense that there were waves of majestic Daoist Rhymes constantly surging in the guqin music.
The majestic Daoist Rhymes amazed even the Sages.
Listening to the zither music, everyone felt that the scenery around them had become extremely clear, and a sense of vastness reverberated in their hearts.
Meanwhile, Nangong Huang, Murong Xuan, and the others also heard the zither music from afar.
They suddenly stopped in the middle of their training.
The sword qi clone did not continue to train either.
As Nangong Huang and the others listened to the zither music, their minds seemed to be guided by it as they merged with the heavens and earth, feeling the vastness of the world.
The towering mountains, the endless flowing water, the lush forests, the ever-present wind … Even the grass, the trees, the flowers, and the leaves had their own unique charm.
Nangong Huang and the others were immersed in the vastness of the world, and the daily training that they had been doing for the past few days surfaced in their minds.
The sword qi clone's techniques, the Sword Mountain's sword intent's suppression, and even the Godly Phoenix's flames all transformed into an inexplicable sense of enlightenment.
At this moment, under the guidance of the zither music, they entered a state of epiphany.
"This little guy can enter the Daoist realm with the zither. This is something that only a Musical Daoist Grandmaster can do. Moreover, the vastness of this Daoist Rhyme is unheard of. I've never heard of any Musical Daoist cultivator who can do this."
"Even those old guys from the Heaven Chord Sect might not be able to do something like this. This is just too terrifying."
"What else does he know?"
The Sages were in disbelief.
They had seen too many miraculous things about Chu Kuangren, but Chu Kuangren still managed to surprise them one after another.
One after another, as if there was no end to it.
The song was over.
However, the zither music continued to reverberate throughout the world for a long time.
After a while, the world became clear again.
"Master, what's this song called?"
Lan Yu's mouth was slightly agape as she asked in amazement.
She knew how to play the zither too, and she was considered a minor expert in Musical Daoism. However, compared to Chu Kuangren, it was like comparing a stream to a vast ocean.
Such musical Daoist mastery could be said to be at the pinnacle of the world!
"The Eight Celestial Demonic Chords … Vastness of Heavens and Earth!"
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
The Eight Celestial Demonic Chords had a total of eight songs, and each song was the pinnacle of musical Daoism. The Vastness of Heavens and Earth was the first song of the Eight Celestial Demonic Chords.
"Vastness of Heavens and Earth, Vastness of Heavens and Earth …"
"What a majestic song."
Lan Yu murmured twice, then praised him sincerely.
"Do you still want to listen to it? I can continue … Huh? "
Chu Kuangren wanted to continue playing, but he let out a soft gasp and looked at Nangong Huang and the others not far away. He could not help but smile.
"These guys are in an epiphany."
Chu Kuangren was slightly surprised.
After thinking about it, he knew that it was because of the boundless world.
Although he did not use any spiritual power in that song, the Daoist Rhyme contained within it was enough to benefit Nangong Huang and the others.
"Heavenly Radiance Sword Art!"
Murong Xuan opened his eyes, and a majestic Daoist Rhyme instantly erupted as he performed one of the twelve Sage Techniques that Chu Kuangren had created for the Black Heaven Sect.
The Heavenly Radiance Sword Art's sword qi was as majestic as the heavens!
With a single slash, the sword qi clone was broken!
At another location.
Nangong Huang's eyes were filled with Yin-Yang Daoist Rhymes.
A ray of Yin-Yang divine light merged into the sacred sword in his hand, and he too unleashed a slash that contained the Yin-Yang Fusion and endless Daoist Rhymes.
As the sword qi slashed, the sword qi clone was broken!
Jun Yi, Qin Wushuang, and the others had also defeated their sword qi clones.
Meanwhile, in the Scorching Purgatory.
Shang Qingxue slowly stood up. She had pushed her Deep Freeze Physique to its limit, and waves of cold currents crashed against the light barrier.
Cracks quickly appeared on the light barrier before it shattered into countless light spots. The cold currents swept out and froze everything within a few hundred feet radius.
Shang Qingxue had broken through the Scorching Purgatory with her own strength for the first time!
