152. Chapter 152: True Transmission (Additional Update, Seeking Monthly Tickets!!)
In the cave dwelling.
Fang Xing touched a blue jade slip.
"According to the Eight Winds Tower intelligence, that Heaven Sword Great Zhenjun Chu Kuangtu likes to travel the world and ask about the sword, so he shouldn't be in the sect right now..."
"As long as I don't run into a False Yuan Ying Great Zhenjun, the main body shouldn't have many problems."
"As for me, should I find a time to witness?"
He smiled and flicked a sound transmission talisman.
Not long after, an old man carrying a fishing rod with a vicissitudes face came outside the cave dwelling: "Sword son."
This person was Xue Zhishi!
But compared to before, there was an extra point of solemnity.
"Xue Zhishi came just in time. Regarding the sect's cultivation techniques and life-bound flying swords, I still have many doubts and want to ask for advice..."
Fang Xing invited Xue Zhishi into the cave dwelling and offered spirit tea: "By the way, since I am named a true transmission, who is my master?"
"This... I'm afraid it depends on which inner sect Elder has the heart to take a disciple..."
Xue Zhishi answered somewhat embarrassedly: "Most disciples of this sect can go to 'Listening Sword Peak' to learn sword observation daily, as for true transmission disciples? They mainly rely on self-comprehension... waiting for the day to be seen by the sect's Elders or even the Sect Master..."
'Sword cultivators are mostly cold and ruthless, it seems there is no hope... Exactly, I don't want any Jin Dan master...'
Fang Xing shook his head secretly and began to discuss the issue of sword cultivation techniques with Xue Zhishi: "I have read many of the sect's Sword Canons, but I don't know how to choose... Which are the most famous cultivation techniques of this sect?"
Speaking of this, Xue Zhishi immediately wasn't sleepy anymore: "Our sect's sword arts have seven major schools... respectively coming from seven sword cultivator classics, with divisions like the Heartless Dao, Star Dao, Five Elements, Metal Element, Wood Element, etc... If we talk about cultivation techniques, the best is naturally the "Purple Star Sword Canon"! Our sect's Grand Elder follows this path... Besides that, the "Wu Changsheng Sword Art" is also very remarkable; it is a rare wood-attribute sword art, and Sect Master Kong Zhenren is from this lineage..."
Fang Xing listened, corresponding to the cultivation techniques he had comprehended, and couldn't help but nod silently.
The
He had seen this sword canon on the sixth floor of the Scripture Pavilion and discovered that when it reached Foundation Establishment perfection, it actually required the accumulation of three hundred and fifty drops of liquid mana; it was the top of the top among top-tier cultivation techniques!
By comparison, the "Wu Changsheng Sword Art" was slightly inferior, with Foundation Establishment perfection accumulating at most three hundred drops of liquid mana, but it followed the path of wood-attribute sword arts, and the natal spiritual sword was crafted from spiritual wood, which could be considered quite original, and it had advantages in the path of longevity and life extension, unlike orthodox sword cultivators.
There were even many devious sword arts, and even the path of sword arrays.
This could also be considered a happy trouble.
Fang Xing had previously worried about not having a sword cultivator technique, but now there were too many sword cultivator techniques, and he didn't know how to choose.
"Choosing a cultivation technique naturally follows the spiritual root attribute first, and personal preference second..."
Xue Zhishi said: "Besides that, since sword cultivators need a natal flying sword, the materials for the natal flying sword are also very important... Although the natal flying sword of a true disciple is definitely supplied by the sect's treasury at the first opportunity, if there just isn't one, then there is absolutely no way..."
"For example, cultivating the Star Sword Dao, the natal flying sword is best made of star-attribute spiritual materials, similar to 'Star Iron' or 'Extraterrestrial Meteorite Iron'... If one wants to go further and study that "Purple Star Sword Canon", the natal flying sword is best made primarily of 'Extraterrestrial Purple Gold' or 'Tianxuan Star Sand'. These two types of rare treasures are extremely rare; even the Grand Elder didn't have them to use back then and could only use Rank 4 'Purple Gold Iron' to make do..."
Xue Zhishi could be said to be pouring his heart out: "If it's the "Wu Changsheng Sword Art", Foundation Establishment cultivators are best using Rank 3 'Wu Changsheng Wood' as the main material... If it's a Qi Condensation true disciple, then it's Rank 2 'Evergreen Wood'... The sect's treasury actually still has quite a lot of this."
The natal flying sword was closely related to a sword cultivator and was the number one most important item besides spiritual roots; no matter how much importance was placed on it, it wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Fang Xing listened and had his horizons broadened, lost in thought.
In fact, looking at it now, the one most suitable for him was still the "Metal Origin Sword Canon", using Geng Metal as the main material to refine a natal flying sword; the configuration was already quite luxurious.
But if there was a better one, he could still consider it.
Therefore, the main body took this opportunity to make a move.
"By the way... Xue Zhishi."
The two sides were chatting happily, and after drinking a few pots of spiritual tea, Xue Zhishi wanted to take his leave, when he saw Fang Xing take out a storage bag: "Shi Zhishi Huang gave me many spiritual stones today, which truly makes me feel uneasy in my heart; I'd better ask you, Shi Zhishi, to take them back..."
"If I take them back, Old Huang will be the one truly unable to eat or sleep in peace..."
Xue Zhishi smiled bitterly and shook his head, hurriedly declining.
Just as the two were chatting, Sword Heart Peak.
Fang Xing's main body changed his appearance, his figure like a gust of clear wind, and also like floating light and passing shadows, crossing four hundred steps in an instant.
"If we talk about sword dao inheritance, it seems this place is still the best..."
He carried his hands behind his back, climbing continuously, yet without causing the slightest disturbance.
That terrifying pressure, and even sword intent... all seemed to be sucked away by some black hole, unable to leak out even a fraction.
——Great Sun Tathagata Mantra!
Ever since he experimented during the day and realized this place was somewhat similar to the Myriad Spirits Record, Fang Xing knew that the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra should also be quite useful here.
This kind of sword intent that actively attacked the sea of consciousness was, for the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra, likewise just fuel.
And, because he had no spiritual roots, equivalent to a mortal, the power he endured should be smaller than that of an immortal cultivator!
"Not bad... not bad... bring more."
Fang Xing revealed a smile, his figure like electricity, rushing straight to the peak!
Infinite sword intent fell into the sea of consciousness, and was crazily burned by a scarlet sun, turning into the purest sword dao insight.
"With these... the immortal cultivation clone just needs to work a little harder, and cultivating sword gang will have no problem at all..."
"Even refining swords into silk, and splitting sword light... is just a matter of reaching out slightly."
In the blink of an eye, Fang Xing had already reached the nine hundredth step, exceeding the limit of that Grand Elder back then!
"Sure enough... this array forbids Jin Dan from entering, but it made a bug in judging me, treating me as a mortal?"
"Even the pressure of nine hundred steps is given according to mortal standards; for me, it's just a gift..." A sword light appeared in Fang Xing's eyes.
That sword light was white-gold, scorching and fierce... and carried the ultimate speed of the world!
Almost the moment he saw it, he had already been struck by the sword!
Unfortunately, for a Rank 3 physique, it was simply like a clear breeze brushing his face.
Instead, that fiercely incomparable sword intent was calcined by the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra, making Fang Xing gradually understand the path of the sword heart.
"After refining swords into gang, it is comprehending sword intent! This often requires a Jin Dan sword cultivator to be able to do it..."
"In reality, what is missing is not a sword pill, but a sword heart!"
"Only by comprehending the sword heart can one catalyze sword intent!"
"Is this the Rank 3 path of a sword cultivator?"
While lost in thought, Fang Xing had already arrived at the nine hundred and ninety-ninth step!
And at this time, the movement on Sword Heart Peak had long since attracted the attention of the Profound Heaven Sect.
Streaks of sword light cut through the moonlight and arrived.
Their momentum was incomparably astonishing, yet not one person landed on Sword Heart Peak.
After all, this peak had array restrictions, and those above Jin Dan were not allowed to enter!
Swish!
A streak of cyan sword light flashed, revealing the figure of the Profound Heaven Sect Master, Broken Sword Zhenren Kong Fengge.
"Sect Master... someone is breaking into Sword Heart Peak!"
The white-haired sword cultivator of the Scripture Pavilion had the ancient sword in his hand unsheathed, emitting a dragon-like sword roar: "It seems it's not a disciple of our sect..."
"Just a mortal!"
Kong Fengge said.
"A mortal? How is that possible?"
"Doesn't that mean this child's aptitude far exceeds that of the Grand Elder?"
"What is that? A reincarnated immortal sword cultivator from heaven?"
"Haha, this is heaven prospering our sect, Sect Master... we must not let this child go, we must take him as the only sword child!"
A group of sword fanatics shouted and yelled.
And Fang Xing didn't pay any attention at all, stepping onto the one thousandth step.
Boom!
At this moment, he truly felt what it meant to have the means of 'sword intent forming momentum'!
At the top of Sword Heart Peak, the terrifying heaven and earth spiritual energy was drawn, turning into sword light like a long river, and also like the Milky Way pouring down from the nine heavens, crashing down!
"Jin Dan sword cultivators use sword intent to dominate..."
"But Nascent Soul cultivators can often slightly manipulate heaven and earth spiritual energy; any spell has the power to move mountains and fill seas!"
"Nascent Soul level sword cultivators can comprehend 'sword intent forming momentum', one sword drawing heaven and earth spiritual energy, with power far exceeding ordinary Nascent Souls... even seizing control of heaven and earth spiritual energy; this is a sword art that can dominate among Nascent Souls!"
"Fortunately, this is not a real Nascent Soul sword cultivator attacking me, otherwise I would be dead..."
A layer of golden light appeared around Fang Xing's body, like a Luo Han golden body; this was the manifestation of pushing the "Dragon-Elephant Vajra Indestructible Divine Ability" to the extreme.
Between his eyebrows, that Vajra relic emitted even more brilliant light, not fearing any sword intent impact.
This allowed him to stand firmly in the weakened version of 'sword intent forming momentum', seeing the scenery at the top of Sword Heart Peak!
"Reached the top! Actually reached the top!"
"Exiled Sword Immortal! Exiled Sword Immortal!"
Many Jin Dan sword cultivators of the Profound Heaven Sect were actually moved to tears: "Sect Master... we cannot let this person go!"
"Elders, help me!"
Kong Fengge finally made up his mind, and a sword seal appeared in his hand: "Let's work together to close the Sword Heart Peak restrictions!"
This was almost the same as actively closing the sect's grand array, which was a very serious matter.
After all, Sword Heart Peak was connected to the sect's grand array, and closing it rashly would definitely affect the sect's grand array.
Fortunately, the Profound Heaven Sect had no external enemies, and these sword cultivators all had sufficient confidence.
Fang Xing didn't care about the disturbances outside at all.
There was no special scenery at the top of Sword Heart Peak, only a bare cliff face.
And on a pitch-black rock, an ancient sword was inserted diagonally!
"Spirit treasure? Or higher?"
At this time, some information along with many sword dao insights appeared in his heart, letting him know how to obtain the final reward.
Fang Xing tapped his toes lightly, landed on the cliff, reached out his right hand, and grasped this ancient sword.
Boom!
In an instant, a large amount of text and images crazily poured into his spiritual sea...
