"Congratulations, Elder Lu!"
Hearing the commotion, Dan Xiaotian walked out of his room.
"This is the token that represents your identity!" Elder Lu Yun passed the token that he had just obtained from the Elder Council over to Zhang Xuan with a smile. "With this, as long as you spend a certain amount of Sword Pavilion Coins, you'll be able to enter the library, the Compendium of Swords, and the like. You'll also be able to challenge the inner disciple trial and earn some rewards. In any case, you'll be able to visit any mountain where the inner disciples reside. Also, this is your reward for becoming an inner disciple. Five Low-tier Immortal Pills! One Low-tier Immortal-tier sword! There was a bottle of pills for healing injuries and recovering true energy! As for this storage ring, it's a gift from me to you! "
After saying those words, Elder Lu Yun passed a storage ring over.
"Thank you, Elder Lu!"
Dan Xiaotian's eyes lit up.
"This …" Seeing how he would receive so many benefits after becoming an inner disciple, including a storage ring, Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up in astonishment.
While enjoying the sect's resources, they had to accept their obligations. There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
In any case, as long as he participated in the tournament, he would be able to earn money quickly. There was nothing for him to be envious of.
"These are the cultivation technique manuals and the Ascendant Cloud Sword Formula of the sect. You should study them first. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to look for me anytime."
Elder Lu Yun took out two books and said, "The cultivation technique that our Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion cultivates is known as the Art of Ascendant Cloud. It's one of the most renowned cultivation techniques in the Forsaken Continent. As for the sword formula, it's number one in the world! However, just because the cultivation technique and sword formula are powerful doesn't mean that you'll become powerful. You'll still have to work hard and comprehend it yourself! "
Dan Xiaotian nodded.
Even though the lessons were the same, there would still be top students and bottom students.
Just because one's cultivation technique and sword formula were powerful didn't mean that one would become an expert.
"Of course, the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion isn't stingy. If you have a cultivation technique or sword formula that suits you better, feel free to practice it. As long as you can clear the annual examination, we won't stop you," Elder Lu Yun said.
Even Huo Jianghe couldn't withstand the sword toss of the other party, and he had even simulated that he wouldn't be able to withstand it if they were of the same cultivation realm.
From this, it could be seen that he had his own secrets.
The Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion wouldn't look too deeply into such matters.
As long as one's strength was sufficient strength, they would be able to pass the examination and didn't violate the sect's rules.
Stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade!
Sometimes, by learning more cultivation techniques and using them as a reference, one would be able to go even further.
After going through the sect rules for a while more, Elder Lu Yun turned around and left.
He had just broken through to the True Immortal Realm, so he needed to consolidate his foundation.
"Teacher …"
After Zhang Xuan left, Dan Xiaotian passed the Ascending Clouds Art and Sword Art over to Zhang Xuan.
With a tap of his finger, two identical books appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path, and he flipped through them.
Fearing that the Ascendant Cloud Divine Art would go wrong, Elder Lu had only given Zhang Xuan the Ancient Sage 1-dan Ascendant Cloud Divine Art. While the flaws in the Ascendant Cloud Divine Art were far fewer than those on the Master Teacher Continent, it was still far from matching up to the Heaven's Path Divine Art.
Just as the other party had said, the sword technique was indeed not bad. However, compared to what he had just comprehended, it was still nothing.
"You don't need to change your cultivation technique. As for the sword technique, you just need to continue practicing the 'throwing sword' technique. Once you've completely grasped this sword technique, I'll teach you the next level!"
Zhang Xuan.
"Yes!" Dan Xiaotian nodded.
From the moment he had acknowledged Zhang Xuan as his teacher, he had completely trusted him.
Seeing that his teacher was about to leave, Dan Xiaotian turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, "Right, teacher, what's the name of the 'throwing sword' technique that you imparted to me?"
His teacher had only imparted the sword technique to him, but he hadn't given him a specific name yet.
Surely, he couldn't call such a formidable sword technique 'throwing sword', right?
"This …" Zhang Xuan frowned.
He had created this sword technique on a whim back in the Ethereal Hall, and he hadn't put too much thought into it. He really didn't know how to answer Zhang Xuan's question.
"Since you're the Third Young Master of the Dan Clan, let's call this sword technique 'Third Young Master's Sword'!"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment.
"Third Young Master's Sword? That's … a little inappropriate! "Dan Xiaotian's cheeks twitched.
That was too perfunctory!
How could there be a sword technique with such a name?
Furthermore, the sword technique was created by his teacher, so how could he use his own identity to name it?
"What's inappropriate about it? In any case, the name of a sword technique can be casually given. Third Young Master's Sword is a good name!"
Zhang Xuan replied with a wave of his hand. He couldn't be bothered to dwell on the matter any further.
His father, Zhang Zhenxing, was a terrible name, or else he wouldn't have given him the name Zhang Diaofei!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have learned the Heaven's Path Divine Art, Heaven's Path Sword Art, Heaven's Path Golden Body, and so on. Even his nicknames were Yang Xuan, World's Edge, and I Am Low Profile.
"Alright then!"
Seeing that his teacher had decided on the name so perfunctorily, Dan Xiaotian could only give up on the matter.
"Give me your inner disciple token."
After obtaining the token, Zhang Xuan left the residence and headed to the inner disciple's book collection vault.
The book collection vault was located on a man-made piece of flat land at the center of the mountain range. It was a majestic hall, and he had seen it back when he was in the trading center.
Walking up to it, Zhang Xuan took out his identity token and passed it over.
"Two Sword Pavilion Coins per hour. You can copy a cultivation technique or battle technique of your choice."
The elder in charge of the book collection vault glanced at the token and said.
Zhang Xuan took out two Sword Pavilion Coins and tossed them over before walking into the room.
The Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion had been around for several thousand years, and there were millions of books on it.
There were many disciples flipping through the books in the room. As time was of the essence, most of them chose the books that they wanted to read and copied them down as quickly as possible.
However, Zhang Xuan didn't have to go through so much trouble. He scanned through the books on the shelves as he muttered 'Flaws' in his mind.
Hu la!
Countless books were imprinted into his mind in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that the ability of the Library of Heaven's Path hadn't disappeared yet, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
He had been wondering if the Library of Heaven's Path would be affected after he entered the Azure, but from the looks of it, he had been overthinking things.
Browsing through the books on the shelves, Zhang Xuan swiftly assimilated them into his knowledge.
This was the book collection vault of the inner disciples, and all of them were Ancient Sage cultivation techniques and battle techniques. There wasn't a single Pseudo Immortal realm cultivation technique, and most of them were Ancient Sage 1-dan. The higher one's cultivation was, the fewer there were.
Zhang Xuan's current cultivation was at Ancient Sage 4-dan Dimension Shatterer realm pinnacle, so it didn't really matter whether he read the books on the shelves or not.
It took him roughly four hours to finish collecting all of the books.
Leaving the book collection vault, he paid six Sword Pavilion Coins before returning to his residence.
"Time to prepare for a breakthrough!"
After collecting all of the cultivation technique manuals, it was about time for him to make a breakthrough.
Sitting on his bed, Zhang Xuan swiftly gathered all of the Ancient Sage 4-dan cultivation technique manuals in the Library of Heaven's Path.
"Compile!"
Zhang Xuan muttered as an Ancient Sage 4-dan cultivation technique manual appeared before him.
He quickly flipped it open.
But soon, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as he had guessed, with so many cultivation technique manuals stacked together, it had reached the level of a Heaven's Path Divine Art.
Flicking his wrist, Zhang Xuan took out the remaining seven Basic Immortal Pills and swallowed one.
Gugugu!
Concentrated spiritual energy immediately burst forth in his body as he drove his zhenqi according to the Heaven's Path Divine Art that he had just formed.
Tzzzzzzz!
As his zhenqi grew stronger and stronger, his zhenqi grew denser and denser.
Boom!
It didn't take long for him to achieve a breakthrough to Dimension Shatterer realm primary stage. He continued consuming the Basic Immortal Pills to swiftly raise his cultivation.
"Hmm? The effects of the Basic Immortal Pills are getting weaker and weaker?"
In less than an hour, he had already reached Dimension Shatterer realm advanced stage. However, the effects of the Basic Immortal Pills that he had bought previously were also getting weaker and weaker. Even after consuming all seven of them, he was only able to reach Ancient Sage 4-dan advanced stage.
"The Heaven's Path Divine Art does indeed have a high requirement on the quality of medicinal herbs …"
Zhang Xuan paused his cultivation and rubbed his glabella in frustration.
The Heaven's Path Divine Art had a high requirement on spiritual energy. While Basic Immortal Pills were effective even for Pseudo Immortals, they weren't of much use to Zhang Xuan anymore.
Even without using Basic Immortal Pills, he was still able to cultivate faster than on the Master Teacher Continent by absorbing the mercury-like zhenqi in the air. However, it would take at least two to three months for him to reach Dimension Shatterer realm consummation.
He had only managed to raise his cultivation by two small stages after such a long period of time … He couldn't afford to wait that long!
"Since I still have some Sword Pavilion Coins, I should buy some Basic Immortal Pills …"
He had won 1,400 Sword Pavilion Coins from the bet, but he had only spent eight of them. Since that was the case, he should make use of this opportunity to buy some Basic Immortal Pills so that he could raise his cultivation to Dimension Shatterer realm consummation first.
Zhang Xuan took out the Ethereal Token and immersed his consciousness into it.
This time, he didn't head to the area where the sword duels would be held.
"Basic Immortal Pills cost 200 Sword Pavilion Coins each!"
The young man in charge of selling said.
"200 Sword Pavilion Coins?" Zhang Xuan's eyebrows shot up.
That was really expensive!
Low-grade Immortal Essence Pills cost two Sword Pavilion Coins, while mid-grade Immortal Essence Pills cost two hundred Sword Pavilion Coins.
"The Central Immortal Pill is a pill that only Heavenly True Immortals are capable of consuming. Those who have reached this tier can be considered experts even among the core disciples. Even the inner elders are only at this tier … Two hundred Sword Pavilion Coins is nothing to them!"
The young man explained. "Of course, the most important factor is that Basic Immortal Pills require extremely valuable medicinal herbs to forge. On top of that, they have a high requirement on the cultivation of the apothecary as well.
Zhang Xuan nodded in agreement.
Even as an inner disciple, Zhu Yanzhi still had close to a thousand Sword Pavilion Coins on him. As such, the price of two hundred Sword Pavilion Coins for a Central Immortal Pill was nothing to core disciples and elders.
"I'll buy five Basic Immortal Pills first!"
Zhang Xuan took out a thousand Sword Pavilion Coins and bought five Basic Immortal Pills.
He had thought that the Basic Immortal Pills he had earned from the bet would last him a long time, but from the looks of it, he had overestimated himself.
Just like with the Ethereal Token, Zhang Xuan activated the formation on the Ethereal Token, and the Basic Immortal Pills appeared before him.
Zhang Xuan took one out and placed it on his palm. As expected, the Basic Immortal Pills harnessed an overwhelming amount of spiritual energy. There was no comparison between Basic Immortal Pills and Basic Immortal Pills.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xuan was just about to swallow the Basic Immortal Pills in order to push for a breakthrough to Dimension Shatterer realm advanced stage when the Dongxu Gourd suddenly appeared. It stared at the Basic Immortal Pills in Zhang Xuan's hand with a covetous look on its face.
"How fragrant!"
