Chapter 121: “Chasing Light Sword Technique” and a Summons from the Headmaster!
More than twenty days passed in the blink of an eye. The Three Sects Martial Arts Tournant was drawing ever closer, with only a few days remaining.
One could clearly feel the increase in the number of people within the sect. Many powerful individuals stationed elsewhere by the sect were returning in droves, as this event was a major affair for the sect.
It was an event one might witness only once in a lifeti.
Additionally, people from other forces who had been invited to observe were also arriving, all notable figures within the Tianling Prefecture were gathering in an unprecedented assembly.
Of course, none of this had anything to do with ng Changqing.
During this ti, besides his daily cultivation and listening to Dao lectures, he focused on making friends. Even though he no longer needed the attributes of other prodigies, high-grade attributes could be decomposed!
With his efforts, he managed to add the remaining seven disciples of Spirit Peak as friends. Upon decomposing the obtained attributes, he received three Attribute Selection Cards, one Attribute Acquisition Card, and three Earth-grade Martial Arts Proficiency Cards.
Although the quantity seed substantial, it was actually not much.
He had decomposed six attributes in total, but several of them yielded nothing this ti, as decomposition did not always result in items. It depended on luck.
However, high-grade attributes had a higher probability and better quality of output.
ng Changqing felt a bit regretful that Mo Xiaoyu left imdiately after each lecture, disappearing without a trace, giving him no opportunity to add her as a friend.
Nonetheless, he wasn’t in a hurry. With his current strength, he was more than prepared for the Three Sects Martial Arts Tournant.
Anything he gained before the event would be a re bonus.
In the hall, ng Changqing opened his character panel.
【Host: ng Changqing】
【Race: Human】
【Cultivation: Second Stage Dao Creation Realm】
【Root Bone: First Grade】
【Perception: Excellent】
【Talent: Spiritual Eye, Iron Hands…】
【Bloodline: Stone Human, Great Strength Demon Ape】
【Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts: “Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique” (Perfection), “Heavenly Cloud Roaming Dragon Step” (Entry), “Chasing Light Sword Technique” (Mastery)…】
【Unrged Attributes: None】
【**Remaining Rewards: Attribute Selection Card *6, Attribute Acquisition Card *1, Profound-grade Martial Arts Proficiency Card 3, Earth-grade Martial Arts Proficiency Card 3】
After rging the Grade One Innate Talent, his cultivation speed could be described as soaring. In just over twenty days, he had directly broken through a small level.
“With so many selection cards, I won’t need to rely on luck for making friends in the short term,” ng Changqing thought with satisfaction.
But what pleased him the most was the Attribute Acquisition Card.
He hadn’t held out much hope for it, as getting such a card was extrely rare. He had only gotten one once before.
Surprisingly, this ti it actually appeared!
This card was far more domineering than the selection cards. The selection card allowed choosing an attribute when making friends and increasing favorability, but the acquisition card allowed directly obtaining a desired attribute from any friend, regardless of favorability. Absolutely domineering!
“I must use this card wisely at a critical mont,” ng Changqing thought, deciding not to use it lightly since he could get most of the attributes he wanted with the selection cards.
“Next, let’s enhance my martial arts proficiency,” ng Changqing decided, focusing on the “Chasing Light Sword Technique” in his martial arts list.
During this period, he had learned a lot about the various sword techniques of Spirit Peak. Even Mo Shukuang had shown him the peak’s supre manual, the “Spirit Sword Canon,” specifically its Earth-grade section.
Within it, ng Changqing saw the “Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique,” the strongest Earth-grade sword technique of Spirit Peak.
The next best was the “Great Five Elents Revolving Sword Technique,” which required absorbing the five elents of heaven and earth, unlike the “Great Transcendent Mystical Golden Sword Technique,” which only involved the gold elent.
The five elents interacted and complented each other, allowing endless and cyclical cultivation. The sword technique’s five elents could also be combined to produce various powerful effects, whether explosive, defensive, or continuous.
This sword technique was so comprehensive and formidable that not everyone was qualified to learn it, only those in the Peak Master’s lineage.
Among the disciples, only Lan Chan and Mo Xiaoyu practiced it, as they were the Peak Master’s direct disciples. The others did not.
The “Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique” was not as comprehensive but was the ultimate spear, pursuing the most intense offensive power—sothing the “Great Five Elents Revolving Sword Technique” couldn’t match.
If not for its high difficulty and tendency to lead one into the Dao of slaughter, many would choose it.
ng Changqing also learned about other sword techniques, greatly broadening his horizons. From the other seven disciples, he obtained related sword techniques but found no need to rge them since the “Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique” was sufficient.
The “Chasing Light Sword Technique” was also part of the sword canon but not a sword technique—it was a movent technique and a high-level Earth-grade one, far surpassing the “Heavenly Cloud Roaming Dragon Step.”
This movent technique had no restrictions and was not exclusive to the Peak Master’s lineage, available to anyone. After asking, Mo Shukuang taught it to him on the spot. ng Changqing only needed a legitimate reason to use it. Many disciples had learned this movent technique, so he could easily obtain it from them.
“System, enhance ‘Chasing Light Sword Technique’!” ng Changqing commanded.
Ding!
【Consuming one Earth-grade Martial Arts Proficiency Card!】
【’Chasing Light Sword Technique’ has been enhanced to Perfection!】
As these words fell, a torrent of insights surged in ng Changqing’s mind.
Compared to the illusionary nature of the “Heavenly Cloud Roaming Dragon Step,” the “Chasing Light Sword Technique” was about extre speed, excelling in both short-distance bursts and long-distance pursuits.
ng Changqing had been very eager to learn it upon understanding its details, as his greatest weakness was his movent technique.
Now, this shortcoming would be thoroughly addressed.
Monts later, the enhancent was complete. ng Changqing’s body made slight tremors, barely noticeable unless one stared intently.
“What incredible speed,” ng Changqing thought with a slight shock.
Just a mont ago, he had already circled the hall, though it seed as if he hadn’t moved from his original spot due to his speed.
“As expected of a high-level Earth-grade movent technique,” he smiled.
With this movent technique, his strength had increased significantly again. Combined with the sword moves from the “Sacred Spirit Slaughter Sword Technique,” the power would be unimaginable.
“Junior Brother ng,” a familiar voice suddenly called from outside the hall.
It was Lan Chan, with whom he had grown quite familiar over this period.
“Senior Brother Lan,” ng Changqing responded, opening the hall door.
“Did I interrupt your cultivation?” Lan Chan asked with a smile.
“No, I had just finished,” ng Changqing replied, smiling back. “Does Senior Brother Lan have urgent business?”
“Yes, prepare yourself. We’re heading to the Sect Master’s Peak,” Lan Chan said. “The Headmaster wants to see you.”
