"Master, I did it!"
Lin Muyu jumped up in ecstasy.
The sword elder walked out of the room and laughed, "Good, your talent is indeed rare."
"Master, what should I learn next? Are you going to teach me a set of Imperial Sword Technique?" Lin Muyu asked, full of hope.
"Sword technique?"
The sword elder couldn't help but laugh. He twirled his beard and said, "Yu, using your heart to control the sword doesn't have any sword technique. As long as you can defeat your opponent, any move is your sword technique! Even I don't have any sword techniques. The only thing I can teach you … is a few scattered moves! "
"Master, please tell me!"
"Watch carefully!"
The sword elder gently raised his palm. Not far from the sword rack, a Qingfeng Sword suddenly came out of its sheath. As if it had a mind of its own, it lightly hummed in the air. Following the sword elder's movements, it slowly turned into a stream of air. In the blink of an eye, the stream of air around it formed an invisible blade. With the Qingfeng Sword as the core, the Qingfeng Sword quickly bombarded the bluestone in front of him.
"Peng …"
With a loud sound, the bluestone turned into powder.
Lin Muyu was stunned. The bluestone was at least one meter thick, but the Qingfeng Sword was just an ordinary sword. The power of this Imperial Sword Technique was truly amazing.
The Sword Elder faintly smiled, "The Imperial Sword Technique that I practice is divided into two methods. One is to gather, just like the attack in front of you, concentrating the power at one point to defeat the opponent. The other is to disperse, spreading the power out to form an entire attack, making it impossible for the opponent to hide. Although the Imperial Sword Technique is ever-changing, the same principle is to gather and disperse."
As he said this, the sword elder gently raised his arm. The Qingfeng Sword turned into a shadow and flew into the sky. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into countless blades that fell from the sky. Only one of them was a real sword. The rest were invisible blades formed by the sword elder's Dou Qi. However, they were still extremely powerful. In the blink of an eye, the bluestone tiles in the courtyard were filled with holes.
"… …"
Lin Muyu was dumbstruck and said, "How am I supposed to study?"
The Sword Elder laughed, "First, learn to gather. Don't use your hands to hold the sword. Use your sword to break a stone slab. That's the first step."
"Yes, Master!"
The Burning Prairie Sword was placed in the distance. Lin Muyu slowly opened her hand and sensed the sword soul in the blade. The soul of the Fire Flood Dragon was also quickly shining and echoing. Its emotions were intense, but the Burning Prairie Sword only trembled a little. Surprisingly, there was not much movement.
"Concentrate." The Sword Elder said from the side, "You must be completely focused in order to reach the highest realm of flying swords!"
"Yes, Master!"
Lin Muyu continued to try and quickly calmed her mind. Her index and middle fingers were pressed together like a sword, and her mind and the Fire Flood Dragon Sword Soul resonated with each other. The Fire Flood Dragon Sword Soul even seemed to be somewhat happy.
"Rise!"
He let out a low grunt, and this time, the Burning Prairie Sword let out a humming sound as the blade slowly floated up. Lin Muyu was extremely excited. She controlled the direction of the Burning Prairie Sword's tip and aimed at a bluestone from afar. She suddenly exerted force and said in a low voice, "Go!"
"Shua!"
The long sword quickly flew over and with a "Pa" sound pierced into the stone slab, but did not penetrate it.
The Sword Elder laughed from the side and reminded him, "Ah-Yu, your concentration is not enough. Concentrate your thoughts on the sword and combine them with the Sword Spirit. Only then will you be able to display the greatest power. Your current degree of integration is not even 10%. Continue practicing!"
"Yes, Master!"
… …
After more than a thousand attempts, Lin Muyu finally opened his palm at daybreak. Using his heart to control his sword, he smashed the top of the bluestone slab into pieces. Moreover, this huge bluestone slab was already riddled with holes. Lin Muyu had spent the night tormenting it.
"Not bad."
The Sword Elder once again appeared behind this diligent student. He smiled and said, "Yu, your Imperial Sword Technique has reached small success …"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Don't be too proud. It is only small success. You still have a lot to learn!"
After saying that, the Sword Elder muttered to himself, "Speed and strength are the key to the Imperial Sword Technique. However, this is only the basic Imperial Sword Technique. Next, this old man will teach you an even more brilliant 'Gather' attack method."
"Hm?"
The Sword Elder flicked his sleeves, and suddenly, a wooden sword that was not far away flew up against the wind. It was aimed directly at another stone slab not far away. The Sword Elder smiled and said, "Ah-Yu, do you think that this wooden sword can pierce through stone?"
Lin Muyu could not help but be speechless, "Wood piercing through stone, isn't that a bit too much?"
"Really?"
The Sword Elder laughed and suddenly shook his arm. Suddenly, the wooden sword whistled and rotated with the sword as the axis. Its speed became faster and faster. Suddenly, it flew out. Stone chips flew in all directions and hit the stone. Sure enough, the stone was pierced through!
"Damn …"
Lin Muyu's mouth was wide open. She was extremely shocked.
The Sword Elder smiled slightly, "This is the 'Spiral'. The power of the spiral can increase the penetrating power. In this world, there are many people who know how to use the Imperial Sword Technique. However, the number of people who know how to use the power of the spiral can be counted on one's fingers. Next, you will learn the Spiral!"
"Yes, Master …"
…
In the blink of an eye, another day passed. Lin Muyu's cultivation speed made even the Sword Elder sigh. This kid was indeed a genius at learning the sword!
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
A cyclone wrapped around the Burning Prairie Sword. The Fire Dragon Sword Spirit happily cried out. The sword body rotated at a high speed and jumped in the air in a spiral trajectory. With a "Peng" sound, it smashed into a green rock and directly disintegrated it!
"Not bad!"
The Sword Elder gently stroked his beard and smiled with satisfaction, "Next, you will use the wooden sword to complete this attack!"
"Ah?"
Lin Muyu wanted to die. How much strength did he need to use the wooden sword to complete this task! However, he did not give up. He quickly picked up a wooden sword. This time, there was no longer the Sword Spirit. He could only rely on his Qi to control the wooden sword. This small wooden sword was suspended in the air. Lin Muyu's arms flew up and down. His Qi drove the wooden sword to spin faster and faster!
"Peng!"
The wooden sword turned into a pile of wood chips. The green rock remained motionless.
The Sword Elder calmly said, "Housekeeper, go and buy another 100 wooden training swords. No, buy 200!"
"Yes, Sword Elder!"
…
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
The wooden sword rotated at a high speed in front of Lin Muyu's chest. Lin Muyu opened his palms. His Qi turned into a lightning that was pulled between his palms and the wooden sword. This was what he had comprehended in the past two days. Turning his Qi into lightning to control the wooden sword. This was the first time the Sword Elder was stunned. The Sword Elder had cultivated for a lifetime. He had seen people using Qi to control a sword, but he had never seen someone using lightning to control a sword. However, Lin Muyu was able to do this.
"Peng!"
A loud sound rang out. The lightning wrapped around the wooden sword penetrated the green rock and directly smashed it into pieces!
Lin Muyu was overjoyed, "Teacher, how is it? Is it done?"
The Sword Elder was a little scared. What kind of terrifying person was he cultivating? He secretly thought that he could not teach him any more profound Imperial Sword techniques.
"En, it's done."
The Sword Elder stroked his white beard and said, "Ah-Yu, you have already learned the Gathering and Dispersing Heart Sutra. With your current cultivation level, you can be considered to be at the top of the Imperial Sword Technique. I have nothing else to teach you. Go back to the Holy Temple, you have already stayed here for seven days."
"Ah?"
Lin Muyu was surprised. He remembered that Lei Hong gave him 3 days off, but he had already been outside for 7 days.
Holding the Burning Prairie Sword, he retreated a few steps and knelt on the ground. He kowtowed and said, "Thank you teacher for your guidance. Lin Muyu will always remember it. Teacher, rest assured, I will go back and forge a weapon as soon as possible."
The Sword Elder laughed, "Good child, quickly get up and go back. The sky is getting dark!"
"En!"
…
While he was at it, he bought some Darksteel and Spirit Stones from the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce. When he arrived at the Holy Temple, the guard recognized him and greeted him with a smile, "Master Lin Zhi, you're finally back!"
"En, what's the matter?"
"Yes, the day before yesterday and this morning, a female alchemist from the Spiritual Medicine Department came to find you. However, you were not here, so she went back. She told us to tell you to find her when you come back."
It must be Chu Yao. Lin Muyu's heart warmed. He smiled and said, "Thank you!"
What he didn't expect was that Ge Yang and Lei Hong didn't punish him. After all, he was such a good seedling. The two deacons also wanted to nurture him. Especially when they saw the charm in Lin Muyu's eyes, they knew that this kid's strength had increased again. He was now close to level 59 Battle-Saint and could step into the First Heavenly Layer at any time!
After putting the Black Iron and Spirit Stones in his room, he quickly went to the Spiritual Medicine Department.
The Spirit Medicine Department was still filled with the strong smell of medicine. Chu Yao was wearing a snow-white female alchemist's uniform, which accentuated her exquisite figure. As soon as she saw Lin Muyu, she rushed forward and grabbed his hand. "Ah Yu, you've been gone for so many days. What were you doing?"
"I was learning sword arts from an expert!"
"Oh? Then your sword arts must have reached a certain level? "Chu Yao tilted her head and asked with a smile.
Lin Muyu clenched his fist and smiled confidently, "It's alright …"
He was quite modest.
Chu Yao giggled and pulled him inside. She said, "Yu, I have a friend that I want to introduce to you!"
"Oh? Sister Chu Yao made a new friend in the Spiritual Medicine Department? "
"What are you talking about!"
Chu Yao smiled coquettishly. She then took a cage from a pile of herbs. Inside it was a white bird. There was an empty bamboo tube tied to the bird's leg. She hugged the bird and said with a smile, "This is a specially trained messenger bird. It is also the main way for the empire to deliver the letter. This messenger bird is a spiritual bird. It can track the breath of the bloodline. It is said that it can find people from thousands of miles away!"
"Oh?"
"It is only one on one. I have already fed it a bit of my blood and you should also feed it a bit of your blood. This way, even if you are thousands of miles away, I will still be able to find you!"
"So magical?" Lin Muyu was amazed.
"Give me your hand …"
"Mn."
Holding onto Lin Muyu's hand, Chu Yao took out a silver needle and pointed it with a smile. But she immediately frowned, "This … Yu, your skin is getting thicker and thicker. Even a needle cannot pierce it …"
"Sister Chu Yao, you are scolding me …"
"I did not say that my skin is thicker …"
Finally, Chu Yao pricked Lin Muyu's finger with the silver needle and squeezed out a drop of blood for the spiritual bird to drink. The little bird immediately spread its wings and flew back and forth between the two of them. It was very intimate.
Chu Yao used her finger to rub the bird's wings and said with a smile, "I will call it Xiao Bai. Yu, in the future, it will only belong to the two of us. I will be the one to feed it. When I can't find you, I will let Xiao Bai find you."
"Mn, good!"
… …
Suddenly, another person from the Saint Hall entered the medicine concocting hall. It was Zhang Wei, clad in armor and looking extraordinarily mighty. The guards of the medicine department didn't dare to ask any questions, and so they just casually barged into the department. "You're right.
"Lord Zhang Wei, what is the matter?" Lin Muyu asked with a smile.
Zhang Wei's lips curled up, "Of course it is a good thing! Lord Lin Zhi, Princess Tang Xiaoxi is in the Holy Temple. She wants you to return! "
"Oh, Xiao Xi is here …"
Lin Muyu smiled and turned to Chu Yao, "The princess must have something to do. Sister, I will go first. I will come back to see you later."
"Mn!"
