Eternal Strongest Sect - Chapter 14
Chapter 14: Sword Realm!
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Millman97
After Jun Changxiao crushed the discernment charm, he looked at the sword manual once again, feeling elated. It was because he could suddenly understand the difficult word incantations and the rare and strange sword stances!
What that was even more incredible was…
The words that were printed on the sword manual seemed to be alive, turning into streams of light that integrated into his sea of consciousness, rearranging and deriving themselves.
Swoosh!
Jun Changxiao remembered the sword stance on the first page. He then flipped to the second page. When it was imprinted into his sea of consciousness, he then continued to flip to the third page, fourth page, fifth page…
The cultivators from the various sects were all stunned when they saw him going through the sword manual so quickly as if he was just glancing through it.
Sword manuals were different from martial techniques. It required one to memorize the sword incantation by heart, followed by the sword stances. Given how he was going through the pages so quickly, it’d be hard to remember even the incantations, let alone the sword stances!
Had he chosen to give up because it was too hard to comprehend?
Swoosh!
At this moment, the first stance of the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword was completely derived in Jun Changxiao’s sea of consciousness.
“Qianqian.” He closed the sword manual. “Hand me the sword.”
Clank!
The sword left its sheath and was handed over.
Jun Changxiao took it from Lu Qianqian’s hand, his wrist swinging gently.
Swoosh!
The three-feet-long sword cut through space lightly, creating a wave current that could be seen by the naked eye.
For wave currents to be formed in the process of swinging a sword mean that he had already comprehended the first stance of the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword!
How was that possible?
The faces of the cultivators from the various sects who were waiting to see him make a fool of himself froze up when they saw the air currents.
The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder was stunned.
What he was concerned about was not the air currents, which were like waves from the sea. He was concerned that this guy did not seem to have taken that long from the moment he took a look at the sword manual to performing the first stance with great mastery.
That was right.
It did not take long.
In terms of the time on Earth, it would only be one minute.
To many people, one minute might not even be enough time for someone going to the toilet to take off their pants. However, Jun Changxiao had taken this amount of time to comprehend the first stance.
“Impossible!” The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder was in denial.
As someone who was at the peak of the Martial Master Realm, although there would not be any issue for him to pick up such a low-grade martial technique, he would not have been able to do so at such an amazing speed!
That was unless… he had cultivated it in advance!
Swoosh!
Jun Changxiao turned, recalling the force in his arm, and then swung another sword stance.
Buzz!
The second stream of air currents appeared, connecting with the first one. This was the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword’s second stance. The time taken to comprehend it was one minute and five seconds!
At that moment, the cultivators from the various sects had their mouths wide-open.
He had to be kidding!
How could the sect leader of this trashy Iron Bones Sect be able to comprehend the second stance of the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword in the time taken to take just a few breaths?
Clanlord Li was in disbelief.
He remembered very clearly that when he was comprehending the second stance back in the day, it had taken him five days!
How on earth did this guy do it?
Had he cultivated the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword before? Was he only pretending that he had not?
He thought along the same lines as the Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder.
This was what all ordinary cultivators would think. After all, it was definitely impossible for a person to comprehend the first two stances of the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword in such an extremely short period of time!
Sorry.
With the reinforcement of the discernment charm, Jun Changxiao had really done it.
Swoosh!
He swung the sword again, and the third stream of air current gathered together and was released as the first two were.
This was the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword’s third stance. The time taken was one minute and ten seconds!
This meant that Sect Leader Jun had already completely comprehended the third stance and was able to use it with a great level of mastery in the time taken it took for the various sects’ cultivators to blink a few times.
It was very scary! Very terrifying!
Li Qingyang’s eyes shone as he thought, Sect leader’s comprehending speed is more than ten times faster than mine. It seems that I’ve chosen to follow the right person.
Meanwhile, Lu Qianqian was thinking, To be able to comprehend so quickly, it seems that the sect leader’s spirit root is higher than Second Martial Brother’s.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Jun Changxiao was immersed in performing the sword technique, sending out layers of waves that stacked together and increased the prowess. They were also like an endless stretch of sea waves.
The waves came on one after another, stacking up in layers. This was how the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword got its name from!
Swoosh!
Jun Changxiao swung the sword again. The waves formed up, and there were now seven streams of stacking waves gathered on the drill ground.
He had comprehended to the seventh stance, and the time taken was merely one minute and thirty seconds!
“Humph,” Clanlord Li said in disdain. “He’s already comprehended the Nine Stances Wavestack Sword, yet he said that he had never cultivated it before. That’s really shameless!”
No matter how fast Jun Changxiao managed to perform the first seven stances, he firmly believed that Jun Changxiao must have comprehended the technique before.
“I knew it!”
“How could a ninth-grade sect leader possibly be able to comprehend the first seven stances at such great speed! So, he actually cultivated it in advance!”
“Damn! I was almost fooled by him!”
“His acting is really good!”
“Look, he is still putting on an act!”
Jun Changxiao once again performed the eight stances in succession, forming another layer of waves. The attention of the various sects’ cultivators was not on this but on his face, which seemed to be wearing a focused expression as he swung the sword.
Ninth-grade sect.
Top grade acting skilling!
The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder calmly said, “No matter how good his acting is, as long as he’s unable to perform the ninth stance, he’ll still be exposed.”
Everyone was in agreement to this.
You like to act?
This big drill ground will be your performance stage! However, if you’re unable to perform the ninth stance, no matter how much you act, it can only be described as ‘shoddy’.
Clanlord Li had his hands behind his back, and he smiled coldly.
Swoosh!
After performing the eighth stance, Jun Changxiao retracted the sword and stood there, immersed in deep thought, as if he was searching for the last stance.
“You can’t keep up with the act anymore, right?”
Everyone started to taunt him.
Jun Changxiao did not hear the sounds from the outside world. It was because when he was comprehending the sword technique, he had abruptly entered a strange realm.
Gradually.
A faintly discernible aura gushed out around his body, emitting a sharp disposition.
The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder was stunned.
The smile on Clanlord Li’s face also froze up.
“This is…” Li Qingyang frowned slightly. He then said in a solemn tone, “The sword realm!”
“What?”
The eyes of the various sects’ cultivators almost popped out when they heard that.
The sword realm, otherwise known as the realm of sword intent.
It was something similar to an epiphany. If a cultivator activated it and entered the sword intent cultivation realm, they would be able to gain a lot.
“My god!”
“What goddamn luck did this guy get? To think that he’d be able to enter the sword realm!”
“Throughout history, many sword arts cultivators have devoted their entire lives but not been able to get such an encounter!”
They were so astonished that some of the cultivators started to speak in a louder voice.
The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder said in a deep voice, “It’s a rare encounter for this kid to enter the sword realm! Don’t disrupt him!”
The various sects’ cultivators who were harboring their own thoughts quickly shut up.
The Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder stopped everyone in time and did not disrupt Jun Changxiao. He was not a bad guy.
The reason he targeted Jun Changxiao was because he did not wish for Li Qingyang to go down the wrong path, wasting such a high-quality spirit root.
Due to the warning from the Azure Mountain Sect’s Elder, the entire area was in a state of silence. The gazes of the various sects’ cultivators were filled with envy.
It was a rare encounter that was hard to come by.
It was really unreasonable for trash to encounter it!
Swoosh!
The eyes of Jun Changxiao, which continued to remain in a vacant state, suddenly flashed with a sharp gleam. He swung his right arm, and the longsword kept on moving about in the air.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The Nine Stances Wavestack Sword’s first stance, second stance, third stance… After performing the first eight stances in one go, he tapped his foot and soared into the air, raising the sword and hacking down.
“Hu hu!”
The eight seething currents in the air rapidly gathered together, turning into white sword light that smashed upon the huge boulder outside the drill ground.
Boom!
An explosive sound erupted and the boulder that weighed several thousand kilograms instantly crumbled.
“Whoa!”
Seeing that, all the various sects’ cultivators were so shocked that they gasped.
