Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Grinding Immortal Sword! (1st Update)
“Grand Thousand Sword Formation”?
Lu Changsheng obtained a Heaven Rank Sword Array cultivation technique, which, judging by the name, seems to be a supreme sword formation capable of manipulating a thousand Flying Swords.
Controlling thirty-six Flying Swords in the Tiangang Sword Formation was already extremely difficult.
Controlling a thousand Flying Swords would be far more challenging than handling just thirty-six.
As Lu Changsheng browsed through “Grand Thousand Sword Formation,” he learned that this sword array could control up to a thousand Flying Swords at most, but the core of the formation consisted of either thirty-six or seventy-two Flying Swords. The peripheral thousand Flying Swords, driven by the sword formation’s aura, could seek out enemies on their own.
“In other words, the surplus Flying Swords can also be integrated into the Grand Thousand Sword Formation.”
Lu Changsheng had plenty of Flying Swords at his disposal, and these could be used for the Grand Thousand Sword Formation.
The Tiangang Sword Formation wasn’t useless either; it could serve as the core of the Grand Thousand Sword Formation.
Before practicing the “Grand Thousand Sword Formation,” Lu Changsheng first updated Lin Qingzhi’s magical treasures.
Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Dao Palace Realm, which allowed him to be awarded a middle-grade Innate Treasure at most.
“As your master, I bestow upon you a new Flying Sword to replace your Nine Heavens Imperial Thunder Sword,” Lu Changsheng said.
Lu Changsheng took out a mid-grade Innate Treasure, the “Biluo Jiutian Sword.”
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the mid-grade Innate Treasure “Biluo Jiutian Sword,” and received an 800-fold return reward for teaching: the lower-grade Immortal Artifact “Azure Light Frost Brilliance Sword.”]
[The number of rewards you can give today -1.]
[The number of Immortal Artifacts that can be returned this month -1.]
So I have obtained the third Immortal Sword already?
After being able to award Lin Qingzhi a mid-grade Innate Treasure, the probability of the system returning Immortal Artifacts indeed increased significantly, and now another lower-grade Immortal Artifact has been returned so quickly.
Lu Changsheng needed as many Immortal Swords as possible for practicing the Tiangang Sword Formation and the Grand Thousand Sword Formation. Eventually, he would even be able to use lower-grade Immortal Sword level treasures to teach his disciples and obtain even more advanced Immortal Swords.
Lu Changsheng awarded the mid-grade Innate Treasure “Biluo Jiutian Sword” to Lin Qingzhi as his main treasure, and also bestowed three Flying Swords for Lin Qingzhi to practice the Tiangang Sword Formation.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the lower-grade Innate Treasure “Phoenix Blood Sword,” gaining a 300-fold return reward for teaching: the top-grade Innate Treasure “Dragon Blood Flame Sword.”]
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the high-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure “Four Extremes Sword,” gaining a 100-fold return reward for teaching: the mid-grade Innate Treasure “Eight Extremes Sword.”]
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Lin Qingzhi with the lower-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure “Falling Snow Sword,” gaining a 3000-fold return reward for teaching: the mid-grade Innate Treasure “Drifting Snow Piercing Clouds Sword.”]
[The remaining number of rewards you can give today is 0.]
An Immortal Sword and three Innate Treasure Flying Swords made today’s teaching return rewards quite satisfactory.
With his Heart of the Innocent, Lin Qingzhi focused wholeheartedly on practicing sword arrays and swiftly grasped the first level of the Tiangang Sword Formation, manipulating six Flying Swords.
Lin Qingzhi then proceeded to practice the second level.
Following the inheritance from the Divine Tree Immortal Emperor, Lin Qingzhi’s comprehension improved, and together with his dedicated focus due to his Heart of the Innocent, even the second level was not a challenge for him.
However, Lin Qingzhi’s cultivation level was not high. At present, he could only use mid-grade Innate Flying Swords as the core of the Tiangang Sword Formation, coupled with Acquired Spirit Treasure Flying Swords.
While Lin Qingzhi was practicing the second level of the Tiangang Sword Formation, Lu Changsheng was comprehending the sixth level of the same formation.
The Tiangang Sword Formation was only one level away from Great Perfection.
Once the Tiangang Sword Formation reached Great Perfection, “Grand Thousand Sword Formation” could then be cultivated.
With the foundation laid by the Tiangang Sword Formation, moving on to master the “Grand Thousand Sword Formation” would be relatively straightforward.
Lu Changsheng’s cultivation had advanced to the fifth level of the Void Refinement Realm, and his understanding of the Sword Dao had greatly deepened, allowing him to effortlessly master the final level of the Tiangang Sword Formation.
Heaven Rank top-grade Sword Formation “Tiangang Sword Formation” achieved Great Perfection.
Just as Lu Changsheng was about to begin practicing the “Grand Thousand Sword Formation,” Mo Huazhi came to report, “Master, Fairy Xia of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion seeks an audience.”
“Xia Ningxue?”
Lu Changsheng, unaware of why Xia Ningxue would seek him out, got up to meet her.
Xia Ningxue stood alone on the small bamboo forest path, her white clothes as pure as snow, her clear radiance like frost.
“I wish to spar with you in swordsmanship,” she said.
Eager to try, Xia Ningxue had inherited the legacy left by Fairy Qingxia before her ascension, which greatly accelerated her insight into the Sword Dao.
The two had not crossed swords since the Six Paths Conference.
“Certainly,” Lu Changsheng replied.
He didn’t mind testing his skills against Xia Ningxue.
As Xia Ningxue had made great strides in her swordsmanship, sparring with her would also provide Lu Changsheng insights.
They arrived at a desolate peak of Meteor Iron Mountain, where they stood opposite each other, their formless auras colliding and stirring up sand and rocks.
“Let’s just compare sword techniques, without using True Qi,” Lu Changsheng suggested.
He knew that since Xia Ningxue had stepped into the Void Refinement Realm, a serious fight would devastate the entire mountain with their Sword Qi.
“Mhm,” Xia Ningxue agreed.
She drew the Severing Affection Sword, the longsword in her hand shining like autumn water.
Lu Changsheng did not use an Immortal Sword; with a reach behind him, the True Martial Sword he was carrying came into his hand.
The True Martial Sword and the Severing Affection Sword were both treasures of the same level, both being top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures.
“The sword technique I’m using is the ‘Green Dawn Sword Art’ created by Fairy Qingxia before her ascension to the Immortal Realm. You’d better be careful,” Xia Ningxue warned.
As she brandished her sword, Xia Ningxue appeared as if an ethereal fairy, her sword techniques myriad and targeting Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng countered with the “Primordial Sword Scripture.”
Both used Heaven Rank lower-grade sword arts, comparing only swordsmanship without contesting cultivation or treasures, evenly matched in strength.
Fairy Qingxia of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, a major figure who ascended to the Immortal Realm, achieved Great Accomplishment of the Spirit Sword Physique, her comprehension of the Sword Dao even stronger than Mount Shu’s current Sect Leader Uncle, left behind a legacy that greatly benefited Xia Ningxue.
Lu Changsheng was secretly astonished, Xia Ningxue’s swordsmanship had greatly improved, most likely having received the inheritance of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion.
Xia Ningxue was also surprised; having inherited Fairy Qingxia’s mantle as well as mastering her swordsmanship, she had hoped to defeat Lu Changsheng, but they turned out to be equally matched.
The Spirit Sword Physique was best suited for cultivating the Sword Dao, with Fairy Qingxia reaching Great Accomplishment with it; Xia Ningxue, having the Lingwa Holy Body and inheriting the legacy of the Spirit Sword Physique Great Accomplishment, still only managed a draw.
The two were merely sparring in swordsmanship, not fighting in earnest.
Xia Ningxue knew that if it were a battle to the death, Lu Changsheng had many more tricks up his sleeve, and she would likely lose.
“Hold on,” Lu Changsheng suddenly said.
In the middle of their exchange, both spoke at the same time.
They sensed a terrifying presence locking onto them.
Both turned to glance sideways, only to see a handsome but sinister-looking middle-aged man appearing.
“This is… the Joyous Union Sect Leader!” Xia Ningxue exclaimed.
Having followed the Fairy Pavilion Master to campaign against the Joyous Union Sect, she had seen the Sect Leader before.
The cultivation of the Joyous Union Sect Leader was on par with that of the Fairy Pavilion Master, making him an opponent beyond the current Xia Ningxue.
Instinctively, Xia Ningxue moved closer to Lu Changsheng.
Under these circumstances, only by joining forces could they stand against the Sect Leader of the Joyous Union Sect.
“You brat, I’ve risked staying in Meteor Iron Mountain just to kill you and avenge my son!”
The Sect Leader of the Joyous Union Sect opened his hand, revealing an Immortal Ring Treasure, his killing intent surging to the skies.
“…”
Lu Changsheng almost forgot that, for the sake of his third disciple, Mo Huazhi, he had slain the young Sect Leader of the Joyous Union Sect. The Sect Leader harbored a deep hatred and was eager to devour his flesh.
