The Sword Son of the Sect was a big deal for the Unhindered Sword Sect, but for the outside world, it was not a big deal.
Moreover, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble and affect the growth of the Sword Son of the Sect, the Sect would not advertise the Sword Son of the Sect.
The third point was still the same. Without entering the True Martial Realm, everything was in vain.
"Congratulations, Elder Qing Ye."
"Congratulations, Elder Qing Ye."
Li Qing Ye's cave mansion was almost broken down. One by one, the Elders of the Outer Sect, whether they were close or not, came one after another.
On this day, Li Qing Ye was grinning from ear to ear.
Chen Zong had become the Sect's Sword Son.
At first, he recommended Chen Zong because he hoped that he could pass the assessment and become the Sect's Sword Son. However, Li Qing Ye knew that the assessment was very difficult and there were other competitors. After calculating, the probability of Chen Zong becoming the Sect's Sword Son was less than thirty percent.
Chen Zong was recommended by him. Now that he had become the Sect's Sword Son, he was almost half a step into the center of power in the Unhindered Sword Sect. Of course, because his cultivation was still low, he could not make any decisions that would affect the Unhindered Sword Sect. However, he already had such a position.
Moreover, Chen Zong's character and temperament were good. He was not an ungrateful person. For Li Qing Ye, this was a great thing.
In addition, he also received various rewards from the Sect.
First, the recommendation of the Sect's Sword Son was restored. Second, he received a large number of contribution points. Third, he received the opportunity to study a low-rank Lingwu.
Lingwu was a Transcendent Martial Dao that only Transcendents could cultivate and master. He was only a pseudo-Transcendent. If he could study the Lingwu, he would have a greater chance of grasping the opportunity to break through and step into the Transcendent Realm.
There was a saying in the Martial Dao world.
Without entering the True Martial Realm, everything was in vain.
Without entering the Transcendent Realm, everything was in vain.
Only when one reached the Transcendent Realm could they be called a true master. Only then could they be qualified to walk the continent.
…
"This old man has taught two generations of Sword Sons of the Sect. You are the third." The sage-like elder Yuan Lingzi said unhurriedly. His voice rose and fell with a unique rhythm, as if it was ringing directly in one's ear, yet it also seemed to be coming from a distant place. After Chen Zong heard it, he felt as if he had been branded.
"Every generation of Sword Sons of the Sect has their own characteristics and teachings." Yuan Lingzi smiled. "Chen Zong, use your full power against me. I need to confirm your abilities so that I can teach you better. But don't use any secret techniques or activate the power of your pseudo spiritual weapon. Just rely on your own strength."
After becoming the Swordmaster of the Sect, one would receive the resources of the Sect and receive the Sect's key nurturing. One of the key nurturing methods was to be personally taught by the only elder in the Sect.
Elder Yuan was a veteran Transcendent Realm master. His cultivation and strength were much higher than the Sect Master's. He was knowledgeable and experienced. Who knew how many people longed to be taught by him.
For example, Zuo Shan Mei and Lin Yuye were able to become second-tier geniuses and one of the Five Great Prodigies. In addition to their own extraordinary talent, it was also closely related to Elder Yuan's teachings. It was also because of Elder Yuan's teachings that they could better display their respective talents and potential and avoid detours.
Now, it was Chen Zong's turn.
Hearing Yuan Lingzi's words, Chen Zong did not hesitate at all. After saying "Excuse me", he unsheathed his two swords. His strength surged from the Earth Abyss, instantly erupting with the most tyrannical power. Body and sword became one, and like a stream of light, he shot towards Yuan Lingzi.
Such speed was astonishing, but in Yuan Lingzi's eyes, it was as slow as a snail. There was no other reason than the gap between their realms was too big.
Without dodging or defending, Chen Zong let the sharp sword light slash his body. He felt as if he had slashed a flexible wall, and the power of the two swords was completely absorbed.
After being slashed by the two swords, Yuan Lingzi's body did not move at all. The two swords did not even touch his body, but were blocked by an invisible force.
"The power is not bad, almost at the level of a Seven Star," Yuan Lingzi said, "But I feel that this is not your full strength."
Chen Zong felt that it was normal for the two swords to be ineffective, but he was also a little shocked.
Unexpectedly, he could not even move his opponent's robes.
He attacked again.
In an instant, the two swords turned into the most violent wind and the most rapid rain, aiming at the same point and launching an astonishing attack. As the countless swords stabbed at the same point, tiny ripples appeared, and then slowly spread out, like a grain of sand falling into a calm lake.
Then, the ripples became more and more intense, like small stones were constantly thrown into the same point on the calm lake.
But even so, Chen Zong's two swords could not break through that layer of protective power. Yuan Lingzi did not even move.
"His power and speed are superior to those of the same level."
"His physical strength is very strong."
"His vitality is strong, suspected to be at the Great Perfection of Pure Yang."
"His strength is vigorous and surging, almost endless. He seems to be half a step into the Great Perfection of Qi Refining."
"His swordsmanship is superb, and he must be fast, accurate, steady, and ruthless."
Thoughts flashed through Yuan Lingzi's mind, and his grasp of Chen Zong's abilities became more and more unique.
Then, a trace of surprise flashed through Yuan Lingzi's eyes.
"Body and Sword as One … It actually surpassed the first level and reached the second level."
"Incredible."
Very few Qi Refining cultivators could master Body and Sword as One. Only the outstanding geniuses could do it, but they had all reached the first level, and there was a huge gap between them and the second level.
In the entire Zonghu Sword Sect, there were no more than ten people who had reached the second level of Body and Sword as One.
Among the disciples, as far as Yuan Lingzi knew, there was only one, and that was Cold Rain Sword Lin Yuye, one of the five geniuses of Tianjiang Prefecture.
As for Zuo Shanmei, she was still at the first level.
Yuan Lingzi was very surprised.
The Zonghu Sword Sect was a Sect that practiced the sword, a Sword Dao Sect, and focused on the sword. The higher a disciple's attainment in Body and Sword as One, the higher their potential in Sword Dao.
Chen Zong had been cultivating in a small dynasty before, but he had already reached this level. If he was nurtured by the Zonghu Sword Sect, how far would he rise?
"I've found a treasure …" Yuan Lingzi was very happy.
"Okay." Yuan Lingzi spoke, and an invisible protective power shook, bouncing Chen Zong's swords away. The power was gentle, and it did not hurt Chen Zong at all.
Chen Zong originally planned to enter the Realm of Enlightenment and use the power of heaven and earth to strengthen his attacks, because that was his true strength. However, since Yuan Lingzi asked him to stop, he would stop.
Sheathing his swords, Chen Zong's breathing was steady, but his forehead was slightly sweaty. The series of attacks just now were very violent and shocking.
"Your talent is above Yu Xie and Zuo Shanmei." Yuan Lingzi looked at Chen Zong carefully and said, "Your attainment in Sword Dao is also very high. You walk the path of learning from hundreds of schools. Answer me first, when you were in the Qi and Blood Realm, did you reach the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood Realm?"
"Yes." Chen Zong nodded.
"Good." Yuan Lingzi was full of smiles. His senses were correct. His Qi and blood were strong and pure Yang, which was the sign of the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood Realm. It was indeed better to have the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood Realm as a foundation.
"With your current cultivation, are you half a step into the Great Perfection of Qi Training Realm?" Yuan Lingzi asked again.
"Yes, I've already opened the Earth Abyss, and only the Heaven Peak is left. I don't understand the main points." Chen Zong not only answered, but also spoke of his current progress and difficulties, hoping to receive guidance.
"You've already opened the Earth Abyss!" Hearing this, Yuan Lingzi was surprised again.
"However, between the Earth Abyss and the Heaven Peak, the difficulty of opening the Earth Abyss is lower, while the difficulty of opening the Heaven Peak is higher." Yuan Lingzi calmed down and continued, "I don't know about other places, but in the records of our Unhindered Sword Sect, there is often no specific way to open the Heaven Peak. Brute force is the most direct way, and there are some coincidences involved."
Hearing this, Chen Zong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"However, you shouldn't feel disappointed." Yuan Lingzi glanced at Chen Zong and smiled. "Someone developed a kind of pill called the Apex Protection Pill. Although it can't directly open the Heaven's Apex, it can better protect the Heaven's Apex. Later, I will inform the Sect Master to prepare some."
"Thank you, Senior Yuan," Chen Zong said happily.
Opening the Heaven Peak was very difficult. If one used brute force, it might be possible, but it would damage the Heaven Peak. If one had the power to protect the Heaven Peak, they would have a greater chance of opening it with brute force.
"Senior Yuan, what I know is called pills. What's the difference between them and pills?" Chen Zong couldn't help but ask.
"Pills and pills are the same, but pills are of a higher level," Yuan Lingzi said with a smile. Yuan Lingzi smiled. "Elixir pills are the weakening of elixirs. Any alchemy apprentice with some alchemy skills can make elixirs, but to make elixirs, you need a true alchemist with profound alchemy skills."
In that case, the alchemists in the Eastern Continent and the Cloud Dragon Dynasty weren't true alchemists.
Chen Zong was even more glad that he came to the Longtu Dynasty.
"It will take some time for the Top Protection Pill to be delivered. During this time, you will practice the sword with me," Yuan Lingzi said. The Unhindered Sword Sect focused on the sword, so he naturally had to learn the sword.
Perhaps Chen Zong was already at the same level as him in the Body and Sword as One realm, but it had to be known that he had reached the second level of the Body and Sword as One realm for more than ten years. After more than ten years of immersion and comprehension, he definitely had a deeper understanding than Chen Zong.
In Yuan Lingzi's eyes, Chen Zong was like a piece of unpolished jade that could be carefully carved and used all his skills.
This feeling hadn't appeared for a long time. Even when he was teaching Zuo Shanmei and Lin Yuye, he didn't have this feeling.
Yuan Lingzi decided to devote all his efforts to nurture Chen Zong and strive to further develop Chen Zong's potential. It wasn't impossible to cultivate the strongest Sword Son for the Unhindered Sword Sect and come from the Prodigy Camp.
Lin Yuye was already 29 years old this year, almost 30 years old.
After 30 years old, it was a dividing line. No matter how powerful one was, they would automatically be removed from the Prodigy Camp. And that was related to the level of a Sect's genius, the strength of the Sect's luck, the level of their reputation, and so on. It was very important.
