Chapter 176: Proud Sword Sect, Nine-Colored Glazed Pavilion, and Mastering the Twenty-Fourth Sword!
“What about their actual strength?” the elder asked again.
“These disciples are world-shaking geniuses, so their martial foundation is extrely solid,”
Hua Ciyan said. “They have all comprehended the true aning of martial arts, though mostly at the rudintary stage.”
A person’s energy was limited.
Cultivating realms, training martial skills, and comprehending true anings.
Achieving high levels in all these areas before the age of thirty-five was incredibly difficult.
Even for world-shaking geniuses, it was hard to accomplish.
“Only a few have unknown situations,” Hua Ciyan said, then she looked at ng Changqing. “How much have you comprehended, Junior Brother?”
“Thirty percent,” ng Changqing answered honestly.
Strictly speaking, it was almost forty percent.
Back when he was in the Demon Abyss comprehending the twenty-third sword, his understanding had increased significantly, and he occasionally continued his comprehension over ti.
As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere fell silent.
Including the elder, the three of them were stunned, then visibly shocked.
“Thirty percent?” The elder took a deep breath, “You’ve reached thirty percent so quickly?”
He rembered that during the martial competition, ng Changqing had just grasped the rudintary stage of sword intent.
Cultivating the true aning of martial arts was much harder than Heaven-level martial skills.
It required an imnse accumulation of martial arts knowledge.
So even the most talented geniuses, like Xi Yingqing of the past or the sect’s founding patriarch, only comprehended the rudintary stage at the Unity Realm.
As for further progress, it took a lot of ti and effort.
He rembered Xi Yingqing, who had only reached twenty percent in the Life and Death Realm.
And now ng Changqing had reached thirty percent.
“No wonder the sect leader praised you so highly in the jade slip.” Hua Ciyan and Ku Fengchun smiled and shook their heads, then looked even more excited.
“With Junior Brother’s current martial foundation, even the geniuses of the great sects would hardly be a match for him,” Hua Ciyan said with a smile. “But there are two people you should pay attention to.”
“Who?” ng Changqing raised an eyebrow.
“Li Jin, the chief of Proud Sword Sect, and Yu Hongxue from Nine-Colored Glazed Pavilion. Their potential is terrifying. They comprehended the true aning of martial arts upon entering the Unity Realm, but their whereabouts have been unknown since then.
“They are likely in seclusion, so no one knows the extent of their true aning now,” Hua Ciyan said.
World-shaking geniuses generally have similar cultivation levels, so their martial skills, physique, and bloodlines often determine their battles.
And then there’s the true aning!
The power of true aning was imnse.
Even half a percent difference could be significant!
“As for others, there isn’t much to be concerned about.” Hua Ciyan lightly patted ng Changqing’s chest, her satisfaction evident.
She hadn’t expected such an outstanding individual to erge in the sect after so many years!
Truly blessed by the ancestors!
With such youth and strength, ng Changqing had more potential than the sect leader to reach that ultimate step!
“The Genius Battle is less than a month away. If you have any questions or things to learn, feel free to co to us.
“We will tell you everything we know.”
Ku Fengchun said with a smile.
“Thank you, Senior Brother and Sister.” ng Changqing was delighted.
He had been hoping for this, as both of them possessed attributes he was interested in!
—
The next day.
After a good night’s rest, ng Changqing went to find Hua Ciyan.
“Senior Sister Hua, you seem to practice swordsmanship too?
“Is it the ‘Emperor Sword Sutra: Great Evolution Twenty-Three Swords’?”
In the spacious courtyard, ng Changqing sat down and asked knowingly.
“Junior Brother has sharp eyes.” Hua Ciyan nodded, “Yes, it’s the ‘Emperor Sword Sutra’!”
“I heard from Senior Brother Mo that this sword technique, though superficially a Heaven-level beginner skill, can be developed further. Does Senior Sister have any follow-up moves?” ng Changqing looked at Hua Ciyan with ‘expectation.’
“I do. I created the twenty-fourth sword!” At this, a rare bright light flashed in Hua Ciyan’s eyes.
Clearly, this was sothing she was very proud of.
Creating a sword move!
And not just any sword move.
But a Heaven-level one!
“May I see it?” ng Changqing asked eagerly.
This was genuine.
He already had a rough frawork for the twenty-fourth sword in his mind.
He just lacked ti to refine it.
Seeing Hua Ciyan’s twenty-fourth sword would be imnsely helpful.
He didn’t intend to copy Hua Ciyan’s twenty-fourth sword, but to grasp its essence, make it his own, and eventually develop his own twenty-fourth sword!
For a martial artist, creating their own Heaven-level martial skill was imnsely significant!
It ant forging their own path!
“Of course.” Hua Ciyan didn’t hesitate at all.
The sect leader had instructed in the jade slip that any of Junior Brother’s requests should be t!
Judging by his look, he had probably already perfected the ‘Emperor Sword Sutra’ and was now ready to create the twenty-fourth sword!
So fast.
Hua Ciyan was amazed.
She rembered the Three Sects Martial Competition, which was only half a year ago.
So at most, Junior Brother had only been exposed to the ‘Emperor Sword Sutra’ for four months.
Four months to perfection.
Incredible.
But considering ng Changqing’s comprehension, a genius who had sword qi in the Vein Tempering Realm, it made sense!
“Junior Brother, watch closely. This is my twenty-fourth sword!”
Collecting her thoughts, Hua Ciyan ford a sword with two fingers, pointing it at ng Changqing’s forehead.
Buzz!
In an instant, ng Changqing felt a shock in his mind!
Countless sword lights surged!
A slender figure stepped through the air, holding a long sword.
A gentle slash!
Boom!
Instantly, the heavens and earth shattered, and the mountains and rivers crumbled!
Everything vanished!
ng Changqing focused intently.
Not daring to be distracted, with his exceptional comprehension, he continuously analyzed the essence of this sword.
But it wasn’t enough!
Instinctively, ng Changqing activated the Heavenly King Art.
Entering the ‘Heaven-Man Unity’ state!
Buzz~
His figure instantly disappeared, rging into the void!
Only a faint outline remained.
Seeing this, Hua Ciyan stood up instantly.
Amazed, she recognized this state!
It was the sect’s unique ‘Undying Truth Heavenly King Art’!
Far more profound than ordinary Heaven-level techniques.
Because its limit was to glimpse that legendary step!
She hadn’t expected Junior Brother to master the first volu so quickly!
“Heaven-Man Unity!” Hua Ciyan’s eyes showed longing.
Which martial artist didn’t desire such a state?
If she could also practice the Heavenly King Art, her swordsmanship wouldn’t stop at twenty-four swords!
But…
the ‘Undying Truth Heavenly King Art’ was reserved for the sect leader.
Not because of the fear of leakage, but because the resources needed for its practice were extrely rare and limited, only enough for one person per generation!
