"This is the elementary-grade divine art I comprehended from the 160th elementary-grade Divine Inscription diagram – Sky Blue!"
"This is the elementary-grade divine art I comprehended from the 172nd elementary-grade Divine Inscription diagram – Suspended Sound Sword!"
… …
Sword Saint Snow Heart performed dozens of primary godly skills in one breath. He performed each skill nine times. During these nine times, sometimes it was fast, sometimes it was slow, sometimes it was fast, sometimes it was slow, sometimes it was fast, and sometimes it was slow. Sometimes it was split up and performed in segments. He tried his best to let the audience see it clearly, to reduce the difficulty of comprehending it.
"Sword Saint Scarlet Cloud, how many elementary-grade divine arts has Sword Saint Snow Heart comprehended?" Ye Chen exclaimed.
Sword Saint Scarlet Cloud replied, "According to what I know, a few million years ago, Sword Saint Snow Heart comprehended over two hundred elementary-grade divine arts. I wonder if he has comprehended any new elementary-grade divine arts in the past few million years. Not only that, Sword Saint Snow Heart has comprehended six mid-grade divine arts. In terms of strength, he can be considered as one of the strongest Ultimate Sword Saints in our Sword God Palace."
"Amazing!"
Ye Chen sighed in admiration.
He had spent 25,000 years to comprehend the elementary-grade divine art, Drifting Blood. But even now, he had yet to completely perfect it. Ye Chen didn't need to ask to know that Sword Saint Snow Heart had already comprehended over two hundred elementary-grade divine arts. If not, he wouldn't have taken them out to show off.
Ye Chen didn't leave. He carefully observed Sword Saint Snow Heart's performance of the elementary-grade divine arts. Although it was the same Divine Inscription diagram, every Sword Saint would comprehend different elementary-grade divine arts. But no matter what, they all originated from the same source. Watching others executing their divine arts, one would more or less gain some insights and inspiration.
Within ten days, Sword Saint Snow Heart demonstrated a total of 272 elementary-grade divine arts. That was an average of twenty to thirty elementary-grade divine arts per day. After he finished, Sword Saint Snow Heart departed.
"Haha, my Sword Qi Danxia is finally perfected!"
The Dan Cloud Sword Saint laughed uproariously. The Sword Qi Rosy Glow was the initial-grade divine inscription he comprehended from the 350th set of divine inscriptions. The higher the number, the more difficult it was to comprehend. But correspondingly, the power of the divine inscriptions would also be greater. Generally speaking, no initial-grade Sword Saint would be willing to slowly comprehend an initial-grade divine inscription according to the number of the divine inscriptions. If they did that, the increase in their strength would be too slow. For example, there was basically no difference between the first and second divine inscriptions. Hence, the majority of initial-grade Sword Saints were the same as the Dan Cloud Sword Saint. They would choose one or two of the more difficult initial-grade divine inscriptions to comprehend.
"At this current stage, I shouldn't focus on breaking through. Such matters can't be rushed. I should earn more contribution points to exchange for the initial-grade Divine Inscription diagrams. According to what the Sweet Dew Sword Saint said, comprehending divine arts is also a kind of tempering for one's body. Maybe when one comprehended an initial-grade divine art, their cultivation base would naturally break through."
Ye Chen silently mused.
After spending a few more months, the Dan Cloud Sword Saint brought Ye Chen around the entire initial-grade Sword Saint island region. After which, the two of them parted ways and Ye Chen returned to the Green Lotus Island.
Five thousand years later, Ye Chen's initial-grade divine art, Drifting Blood, was finally perfected. His strength rose to another level.
"It's time to challenge the Sword God Pagoda."
Ye Chen wanted to see how many floors of the Sword God Tower he could reach with his current strength.
The Dan Cloud Sword Saint reached the fourteenth level.
…
There were a total of four Sword God Pagodas. The first one was located in the initial-grade island region and had nine levels. The second one was located in the mid-grade island region and had eighteen levels. The third one was located in the high-grade island region and had twenty-seven levels. The fourth one was located in the core region of the Sword God Palace and had thirty-six levels.
Ye Chen first arrived at the first Sword God Pagoda in the initial-grade island region.
As soon as he arrived, Ye Chen saw an initial-grade Sword Saint leaving dejectedly. Clearly, he had failed the challenge.
In the Sword God Palace, initial-grade Sword Saints were the least numerous. This was because those who could become members of the Sword God Palace were all extremely talented and could quickly become intermediate-grade Sword Saints. Of course, there were also some cases where some heaven-defying cultivators with extremely good aptitudes had the opportunity to join the Sword God Palace. As a result, they needed a long time to improve in the early stages. After all, there were very few people like Ye Chen.
Not only was Ye Chen a initial-grade Sword Saint as soon as he entered, but he also comprehended the Law of Complementation. It should be known that most high-grade Sword Saints, such as the Sweet Dew Sword Saint and the Shadowless Sword Saint, did not comprehend the Law of Complementation.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Chen arrived at the first level of the Sword God Pagoda.
Each level of the Sword God Pagoda was guarded by a Puppet Sword Saint. If he wanted to pass through, he had to defeat the Puppet Sword Saint.
To Ye Chen, the Puppet Sword Saint on the first level was too weak. With just a light strike, Ye Chen defeated it and arrived at the second level.
After 10 minutes, Ye Chen passed the first level of the Sword God Pagoda.
Ring!
A sword ring rang out, and the Sword God Pagoda shone brightly.
In the elementary Sword Saint island region, many initial-grade Sword Saints looked over from afar.
"Another person passed the ninth level."
"The ninth level is not very difficult. I have already made it to the 11th level. I wonder which level this person can reach."
Most initial-grade Sword Saints could make it to the ninth level. Hence, it was not surprising that people often passed the ninth level.
One had to apply to enter the intermediate Sword Saint island region.
Three days later, Ye Chen was allowed to enter the intermediate Sword Saint island region.
Ye Chen walked in front of the second Sword God Pagoda.
He was allowed to pass through the first nine levels.
The 10th level.
The 11th level.
The 12th level.
Ye Chen passed all the way to the 13th level in one go.
Although the Scarlet Cloud Sword Saint had comprehended 15 types of Divine Arts, his overall strength was not much stronger than Ye Chen. This was because the Scarlet Cloud Sword Saint had only comprehended two types of Divine Arts. They were the Divine Arts of Water and Divine Arts of Fire.
When he reached the 13th level, Ye Chen was finally stalled.
Even after activating the Five Elemental Divine Arts, he was still unable to defeat the Puppet Sword Saint. The Puppet Sword Saint's attack was only slightly weaker than Ye Chen when he went all out, and Ye Chen's Five Elemental Divine Arts could not be sustained for long.
Pu!
After dispersing the Five Elemental Divine Arts, Ye Chen was sent flying by the Puppet Sword Saint.
He failed to pass the 13th level.
"A total of 499,500 contribution points."
A satisfied smile appeared on Ye Chen's face. It was already very good to have such a result on his first time in the Sword God Pagoda. The contribution points were also sufficient to exchange for one or two of the four elementary Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagrams.
The first elementary Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagram required 100,000 contribution points, the second 200,000 contribution points, the third 300,000 contribution points, the fourth 1,000,000 contribution points, so on and so forth.
Back then, the elementary Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagram that Ye Chen comprehended was not bad. It was the fifth one.
After considering for a moment, Ye Chen decided to exchange for the first elementary Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagram.
Everything had to be done from the beginning. It was not a good habit to bite off more than one could chew. Only with a solid foundation would one be able to comprehend Divine Arts faster and faster.
The first elementary Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagram required 100,000 contribution points. There were still slightly over 300,000 left. Ye Chen was not in a hurry to use them. He wanted to comprehend the first Sword Dao Divine Inscription diagram first.
