The Sword Nurturing Gourd flew into Chen Fan’s hands.
rely holding it in his hand, he could feel an imnse and surging power.
"This Sword Nurturing Gourd must have remained unopened for at least a few hundred years, and the power it has nourished has already accumulated to an extrely terrifying extent. Moreover, the Flying Swords within, having been nurtured for hundreds of years, must have reached an unbelievably daunting level of might," he thought.
Without hesitation, Chen Fan released his Divine Sense and penetrated the interior of the Sword Nurturing Gourd, and was imdiately t with a rich Sword Intent.
"Such terrifying Sword Intent, the previous master of this Sword Nurturing Gourd must have been an unparalleled existence even among Sword Immortals!"
His Divine Sense broke through the layers of Sword Intent’s obstruction, finally reaching a space woven with Spiritual Energy and Sword Qi.
Nine Divine Swords radiating endless might floated within this space, ceaselessly absorbing the nourishnt of Spiritual Energy and Sword Qi in this realm.
Chen Fan was incredibly shocked inside, "Nine Flying Swords! There are actually nine Flying Swords!"
According to the Inheritance Record, an ordinary Sword Nurturing Gourd finds nurturing one Flying Sword extrely strenuous. Slightly more powerful gourds could nurture two or three Flying Swords. A Sword Nurturing Gourd that could nurture nine Flying Swords was akin to an extrely rare treasure.
The key to the Sword Nurturing Gourd lies in the "nourishing". A single Flying Sword, after a lengthy period of nurturing, would accumulate a very terrifying might. As such, these types of Magic Artifacts usually make a formidable impact once unleashed. Flying Swords nurtured over many years, once released, often possess the power to kill beyond their level.
One Flying Sword was already enough to strike terror into the hearts of many. If nine swords were to be unleashed simultaneously, their might would simply be unimaginable.
"This Sword Nurturing Gourd absolutely counts as a true instrunt of slaughter. The power of the Flying Swords within it might even be more formidable than my current Nine Revolutions Golden Crow Skills. Of course, the might of the Golden Crow is determined by my own strength. Once I’ve broken through to the Golden Core Realm, the power of the Nine Revolutions Golden Crow might not be weaker than these Flying Swords," he assessed.
The Sword Nurturing Gourd could only be created by Sword Immortals above the Golden Core Realm because controlling the Flying Swords inside the gourd relied on one’s Divine Sense.
Only upon reaching the Golden Core Realm could one unlock Divine Sense.
Chen Fan, however, was an exception. By harnessing the Soul Force obtained from an unnad Ancient God, he had prematurely unlocked his Divine Sense, and thus had the chance to witness the conditions within the Sword Nurturing Gourd’s inner space.
Currently, Chen Fan’s Divine Sense could only cover an area of a hundred ters. If he were to drive the Flying Swords, he could only exert their power within this hundred-ter radius.
Only when Chen Fan made a breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, could the true power of this Sword Nurturing Gourd be unleashed.
"Let’s first test whether I can activate the Flying Swords within this Sword Nurturing Gourd with my current realm."
Thinking so, Chen Fan imdiately released all his Divine Sense power, attempting to drive the Flying Swords within the Sword Nurturing Gourd.
At first, he thought that even though he was only in the middle period of Foundation Establishnt, he should manage to drive two or three Flying Swords. Yet, when he poured all his Divine Sense power into the effort, he found that only a single Flying Sword responded, and it was quite difficult at that.
"Is this thing really so difficult to command?" Chen Fan thought sowhat embarrassedly.
"However, being able to control a single Flying Sword is already mighty impressive; after all, this is a Magic Artifact used by Golden Core Realm powerhouses, and it’s a Sword Nurturing Gourd capable of killing beyond its level. With this single Flying Sword, I can already sweep through the Foundation Establishnt Realm undefeated, not to ntion that Cultivators have already vanished from Earth."
With that thought, Chen Fan was quite satisfied in his heart.
"Once I break through to the later period of Foundation Establishnt, my Divine Sense will certainly grow stronger, and then maybe I can control a few more Flying Swords."
For now, Chen Fan’s main task was to strive to enhance his strength, and to find Su Qingyan in the Capital as soon as possible. Along with advancing in realm, Magic Artifacts and Divine Skills were also part of his strength.
With the acquisition of this Sword Nurturing Gourd, Chen Fan felt as if he had gained an extra dose of confidence.
"Looking at it this way, it’s not absolutely necessary for to wait until I break through to the Golden Core Realm before heading to the Capital. Once I reach the later period of Foundation Establishnt, I can set off," he thought.
After all, with the disappearance of cultivators from Earth, he, at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, could easily crush a master of the ninth layer of the Transformation Realm.
And the ninth layer of the Transformation Realm was already considered the peak of martial artists, with the infamous Blood Blade overseas and the dicine Sect with their extensive reach, the strongest among them were rely at the ninth layer of the Transformation Realm.
Even though the Mu Family had deep roots, they were probably only slightly stronger than Blood Blade or dicine Sect, so Chen Fan felt that he now had the qualifications to stand on equal footing with the Mu Family.
The worst possibility was that there might be a master of the Divine Realm in the Capital, legend in the Martial Arts Circle.
However, once Chen Fan broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishnt and combined it with the Sword Nurturing Gourd and Nine Revolutions Golden Crow Skills, he might not be incapable of battling this so-called master of the Divine Realm.
"Now that the one-year period is almost upon us, since that’s the case, I will set off for the Capital once I’ve broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishnt!"
Chen Fan’s eyes grew increasingly determined as he made up his mind.
"It’s just that I used my last thousand-year elixir to activate the Sword Nurturing Gourd, so I need to find another way if I want to break through to the late stage of Foundation Establishnt."
At that mont, Chen Fan once again realized the importance of resources to a cultivator, especially on this Earth where spiritual energy was exhausted. Without resources, breaking through was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Without dwelling on it further, Chen Fan put away the Sword Nurturing Gourd and left the room in high spirits.
Upon reaching the living room, he saw Qi Heng sitting cross-legged on the ground, imitating Cheng Fan’s usual practice, seemingly trying to do sothing.
Seeing Cheng Fan co out, Qi Heng imdiately stood up and said sowhat awkwardly, "Fan."
Chen Fan asked with a puzzled face, "What are you doing?"
Qi Heng replied sheepishly, "I saw you sitting like that when you had nothing to do, Fan, and I thought it might be a way of cultivation, so I just imitated it."
Chen Fan: "..."
Qi Heng said, "I’m sorry, Fan, I shouldn’t have secretly imitated you, I won’t do it again."
Chen Fan shook his head helplessly and said, "I sit that way because it’s comfortable, but in cultivation, what’s important is the cultivation technique, not how you sit."
"Co with , I’ll teach you so Breathing Skills to lay the foundation first."
Qi Heng’s eyes imdiately lit up, and he excitedly followed Chen Fan out to the courtyard.
"Thank you, Fan, you’re like a second parent to , I’ll be sure to honor you for the rest of my life!"
...
The next morning.
Chen Fan was in the midst of his cultivation.
All of a sudden, he sensed sothing and abruptly opened his eyes.
Just now, he felt the Protective Amulet he had given to Shen Lingdie being crushed!
Chen Fan’s expression hardened, "Is Lingdie in trouble?"
