(Chen Zong, you've finally reached the Imperceptible Realm of the Real Sword Eight Movements. You'll also have new gains. In addition, the third volume has ended. Tomorrow you'll start the fourth volume: the Realm of Truth! Look forward to it!)
"Brother, I'm going out to patrol. I'll leave this place to you." Chen Zhong was fully armed, wearing light iron armor and boxing gloves inlaid with fine iron plates. He said to Chen Zong, then turned and walked out of the small courtyard.
"Brother, be careful. If you're in danger, use the SOS Flare immediately," Chen Zong reminded him.
In the past ten days, Chen Zhong went out to patrol. He even took over Chen Zong's patrol. As for Chen Zong, he was recuperating in the small courtyard and recovering from his injuries.
The physique of a warrior was different from that of an ordinary person. Not only was his strength and speed many times better than that of an ordinary person, but his self-healing ability was also many times better.
Such injuries, even with medicine, on an ordinary person, would take at least a month to recover. However, on Chen Zong, it was completely healed in ten days, leaving only a faint scar.
The style of the light iron armor was similar to that worn by the Iron Guards of the Chen family. It was issued recently, because for some reason, there were more demonic beasts than usual in the area. Even rare demonic beasts of the upper class of Lv 1 appeared everywhere. The purpose of the light iron armor was to increase their defense and survival ability.
Since they had accepted the task of guarding the mineral vein, they could do nothing if they were accidentally killed by demonic beasts.
In the small courtyard, Chen Zong stretched his arms and legs.
In the past ten days, in order to prevent his wounds from tearing, he didn't practice sword arts. He felt that his body was about to rust. Now that his injuries were healed, when he moved his arms and legs, there was a continuous cracking sound like beans being fried.
After the exercise, he practiced the Tiger Strength Fist Art. Every punch carried a shocking sound of a tiger roaring, and his momentum was imposing.
For ten days, Chen Zong didn't cultivate, but he didn't slack off either. Instead, he sorted out what he had seen and learned since he started cultivating. He gathered the bits and pieces, removed the unnecessary things, and only left the essence that was beneficial to him. Then, he deepened his understanding and extended it.
"Training really requires a balance between work and rest. If I keep training hard without any time to digest the information, I'm bound to miss something." Chen Zong muttered to himself as he gripped the scabbard with his left hand. His aura instantly changed.
Wisps of sharpness were quietly born and condensed, like sharp swords in their sheaths.
He lowered his body.
Crouching sword style!
The hidden sharpness of his aura suddenly became intense.
The essence of the Eight Forms of the True Sword flashed through his mind like a stream of water.
His aura became more and more condensed.
His right hand moved like lightning, grabbing the sword hilt and pulling it out instantly. A crescent-shaped sword light sliced through everything in front of him, its sharpness unstoppable.
Sword-drawing Style!
Charging Sword Form!
Ring Sword Form!
Chop Sword Style!
Chaotic Sword Style!
Swift Sword Style!
Explosive Sword Style!
In just a few breaths, he had practiced the Eight Forms of the True Sword once. Putting the sword back into the scabbard, Chen Zong's back was as straight as a sword. His body was still, and his aura was once again reserved. Gradually, it became weaker and weaker until it couldn't be felt at all.
"Eight Forms of the True Sword …"
"True Sword, True Sword …"
"I finally understand why I couldn't find the opportunity to break through to the Imperceptible Realm after reaching the peak of the Consummate Realm. It's because my cultivation direction has deviated."
"True Sword … True … Sword …"
"Sharpness is a sword …"
"Tenacity and unyielding is a sword …"
"Fearlessness is a sword …"
"Cutting through thorns is a sword …"
"Taking lives at the sight of blood is a sword …"
Sentence after sentence, his voice became louder and louder. His eyes became brighter and sharper, as if there was a cold light flickering in them. It was as if the sword light was about to shoot out.
"The so-called True Sword … Sharpness, Tenacity, Unyielding, Fearlessness … and … Killing …"
The aura that had been reserved to the extreme burst out in an instant. It was extremely sharp, and his whole body seemed to be a sword. Then, the iron sword was unsheathed. Without any posture, the sword slashed forward like a crescent moon in the night sky. It was so bright that it tore the night sky apart.
Sword-drawing Style!
It was the same Sword-drawing Style, but it gave off a unique feeling. It was as if there was some kind of qualitative change. Every bit of strength was used to the extreme, and the crescent moon sword light seemed to be flying out of the sword.
The power of Qi and blood fluctuated like a river.
Chen Zong held the sword in his right hand and performed one style after another. The power of each style had reached the extreme, far more powerful than before. Every sword left a clear trajectory in the air.
Explosive Sword Style!
The sword blasted out like a giant cannon. It was so powerful that it seemed to be able to smash a mountain. The air under the sword was squeezed and split, forming a vacuum wave that shot forward and hit the wall of the small courtyard. With a bang, dust flew up.
"This … is the Tittle Phase of the Eight Styles of the True Sword …" The iron sword fell naturally. Under the sunlight, Chen Zong's face seemed to be full of divine light.
After practicing hard and searching for an epiphany, Chen Zong was finally able to reach the Tittle Phase. However, he was not excited. Instead, he was very calm, as if it was natural.
After ten days of meditation, success came naturally.
"The power of the Eight Styles of the True Sword in the Consummate Phase is comparable to the power of Diffusing Light and Sweeping Shadow. Now that it has reached the Tittle Phase, its power has increased sharply. It is completely better than Diffusing Light and Sweeping Shadow," Chen Zong said to himself.
It would be hard to believe if he said it out loud.
After reaching the Tittle Phase, the power of a Foundation Establishment Martial Technique could surpass the first level of a Martial Arts of the Inferior Class of the Human Rank. How terrifying it was.
At the level of Diffusing Light and Sweeping Shadow, the power of the sword light did not increase much from the Beginner Phase to the Advanced Phase. The main difference was the number of sword lights.
The Eight Styles of the True Sword was originally a very mysterious and powerful Foundation Establishment Sword Technique. After reaching the Tittle Phase, the power of each sword move was completely beyond the level of a Foundation Establishment Sword Technique. It was comparable to the first level of a Sword Technique of the Inferior Class of the Human Rank. Especially the last Explosive Sword Move, its power was even more terrifying.
"I wonder how it compares to Diffusing Light and Shadowless."
Up to now, Chen Zong had not reached the Beginner Phase of Diffusing Light and Shadowless.
But no matter what, the Eight Styles of the True Sword had reached the Tittle Phase. His understanding and mastery of the sword had improved. His strength had also increased a little, and his ability to fight for a long time had also greatly improved.
The Eight Styles of the True Sword did not require a large amount of Qi and Blood to be used as a Sword Technique of the Human Rank. This was a very rare advantage.
"Now that the Eight Styles of the True Sword have reached the Tittle Phase, what is the change of the mysterious sword point?" Chen Zong thought to himself. He shifted his attention to the mysterious sword point in the space between his eyebrows.
It was mysterious, ancient, profound, and vast. Every time he saw it, he would be amazed.
Perhaps it had sensed Chen Zong's thoughts or something else, the mysterious sword point trembled slightly. The buzzing sound was like the sound of an ancient god, cleansing his soul and body. It was very comfortable. A silver dragon flew up, riding the Nine Heavens and roaming the Four Seas. It suddenly rushed toward Chen Zong's mind.
Chen Zong's body was as still as a statue. His eyes were open, and there was a silver light flickering in them. It seemed to contain endless mysteries. As time went by, the silver light gradually faded away until it completely disappeared.
"It's a Cultivation Method of Qi and Blood …"
Exhaling, Chen Zong was a little surprised.
At first, he thought that he might gain something by cultivating the Eight Styles of the True Sword to the Tittle Phase, but he was not sure. It was just a feeling. If his guess was correct, then it might be a Sword Technique of a higher rank than the Eight Styles of the True Sword.
The situation surprised Chen Zong. There was indeed a change, but it was different from what he had guessed. It was not a Sword Technique, but a Cultivation Method, a Cultivation Method of Qi and Blood.
"The True Sword Skill …"
"This name does sound extraordinary."
Carefully reading the information in his mind, Chen Zong became more and more surprised. In the end, his face was full of shock.
"The True Sword Skill … What rank is this Cultivation Method?"
"I heard that there are Cultivation Methods of a higher rank than the Human Rank. Is the True Sword Skill above the Human Rank?"
"It's just that Cultivation Methods above the Human Rank are not suitable for Qi and Blood Realm martial artists."
According to Chen Zong's understanding, Human Rank Cultivation Methods and Martial Arts were divided into four ranks: Low, Middle, High, and Supreme.
There were two stages for a Low-Grade Mortal Realm cultivation technique, three stages for a Mid-Grade Mortal Realm cultivation technique, four stages for a High-Grade Mortal Realm cultivation technique, and five stages for a Supreme-Grade Mortal Realm cultivation technique. However, the True Sword Skill had six stages.
Taking a few deep breaths, Chen Zong calmed himself down. No matter what, it was a great thing to be able to obtain a Cultivation Method that seemed to be better than the Supreme Rank Cultivation Methods of the Human Rank.
After all, the higher the rank of the Cultivation Method, the faster the Cultivation Method, and the faster the recovery of energy after the consumption.
"The cultivation of the True Sword Skill is about Qi and Blood like a sword, which can enhance the swordsmanship to a certain extent."
"Mastering the first rank will increase the power of the swordsmanship by ten percent. Mastering the second rank will increase the power of the swordsmanship by twenty percent …"
"If I can reach the fourth level, I can increase the sword technique's power by an additional fifty percent. Moreover, I can cultivate a strand of Heavenly End True Sword Power. Once activated, I can increase the sword technique's power by another fifty percent within a breath."
"If mastering the fifth rank, the True Sword Force of the Sky Extinction will increase by one hundred percent."
"If mastering the sixth rank, the True Sword Force of the Sky Extinction will be able to leave the sword and kill with amazing power."
Chen Zong's heart was burning with passion. His heartbeat was several times faster than usual, and it sounded like the beating of a drum.
There was a huge gap between the Middle and Upper Mortal Level Cultivation Methods. For example, the Fierce Tiger Skill of the Chen Family and the Earth Dragon Skill of the Tang Family.
One was rank three while the other was rank four. However, when the Earth Dragon Skill was cultivated to rank four, one could cultivate the power of the Earth Dragon in the body. Once activated, it could further enhance the strength of one's arms in a short period of time. The Fierce Tiger Skill rank three was the limit, but it was not enough.
There were only three Upper Mortal Level Cultivation Methods in the Wind Martial City. They were the Legacy Cultivation Methods of the Three Great Clans. As for the Five Great Clans, they only had Middle Mortal Level Cultivation Methods. As for the other small clans, they only had incomplete Middle Mortal Level Cultivation Methods at most.
"Alright, from today onwards, I will cultivate the True Sword Skill. If I can master the first rank, my strength will definitely increase a little."
Taking a deep breath and calming down, Chen Zong carefully comprehended the first rank of the True Sword Skill.
The first rank of the Lower Mortal Level Cultivation Method could increase the cultivation and recovery speed by fifty percent. The first rank of the Middle Mortal Level Cultivation Method could increase it by one hundred percent. The first rank of the Upper Mortal Level Cultivation Method could increase it by one hundred percent, and the first rank of the Highest Mortal Level Cultivation Method could increase it by twenty percent.
