Chapter 70: The Last Move of the Qiankun Sword Technique
“Master, please instruct !”
Lin Feng quickly nodded.
No matter what the task, she was determined to complete it.
As long as it was sothing Ling Xue asked of her, she would complete it.
“You wield a sword, and your insight is far sharper than most,” Ling Xue said slowly, “So… I want you to find sothing.”
Lin Feng was indeed a swordswoman with exceptional composure and keen perception.
Previously, when tasked with storing the Qiankun Sword Technique’s remnants, she had swiftly located the black ancient tower. This was proof of her abilities.
Her strengths were twofold: swordsmanship and a sharp, calm insight.
Therefore… tracking and seeking were her expertise.
Just like how she had inadvertently co across the remnants of the Qiankun Sword Technique.
Sotis, “chance” itself was a form of insight!
If it had been soone else, where would the opportunity to “inadvertently” find the remnants have co from?
“Find sothing?” Lin Feng curiously looked at Ling Xue.
What exactly did he want her to find?
“Deep within the Huangji Desert, in an unknown place, there exists a Void Abyss,”
Ling Xue said slowly. “It was left behind from an ancient battle between a peak expert and a powerful void creature.”
“Within the Void Abyss, there remains a sword. And… a void mount.”
“You will go there, find the abyss, and retrieve the sword and the mount.”
In the original text, this event was recorded.
Lin Feng, while traveling the world, had stumbled upon a sword and a mount of unimaginable strength, comparable to the ninth level of the Jiwu realm, within the depths of the Huangji Desert’s Void Abyss.
It was there that the sword intent within her was fully awakened.
As a result, she beca the most formidable force on Ling Xue’s side.
“The Huangji Desert?” Lin Feng squinted her eyes slightly.
That place was a death trap!
Full of unknowns and perils.
But… if Ling Xue commanded her to go, she would.
“Master, rest assured, I will find that sword and that mount!” Lin Feng declared resolutely.
“It’s not about finding, but obtaining,”
Ling Xue corrected her. “Once you have them, they are yours.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng furrowed her brow slightly, then understood,
“Master ans… you want to go out and train?”
It was clear—he was pointing her in a direction for her growth.
And all the gains would be hers.
“At your current state, staying within the sect won’t contribute much to your progress. It will only hinder your growth,”
Ling Xue said slowly. “That place is very suitable for you. Once you leave, rember this: Don’t return until you’ve succeeded.”
If she stayed too long in the sect, she might miss the chance to gain those treasures.
So, it was best to send her out!
Lin Feng pondered briefly before nodding heavily, “Understood!”
Since it was Ling Xue’s arrangent, she would naturally obey.
“I believe the next ti we et… you will surprise .” Ling Xue smiled faintly.
“I will not fail you!” Lin Feng nodded again, determined not to let Ling Xue down.
Since Ling Xue had such high hopes for her, she would ensure she lived up to them.
She would beco what he expected her to be.
“Now… I will pass the Qiankun Sword Technique on to you. It will be useful for when you are out in the world,”
Ling Xue said slowly.
As he spoke, he raised his hand.
With a swift motion, he pressed his index and middle fingers to Lin Feng’s forehead.
In the next mont, all the knowledge of the Qiankun Sword Technique surged into Lin Feng’s mind.
Previously, she had only mastered the first move, but from now on, she could use nearly the entire Qiankun Sword Technique!
As for why “nearly”?
Because Ling Xue did not teach her the final move.
“Why… are there only nine moves?”
After imprinting the knowledge of the sword technique into her mind, Lin Feng asked curiously.
The Qiankun Sword Technique had ten moves in total, so why didn’t Ling Xue teach her the last one?
Co to think of it, she had never seen him use the final move either!
Even during the great battle in the capital of the Tai Xuan Empire, he hadn’t used it.
Was there sothing special about it?
“The final move of the Qiankun Sword Technique is a sacrificial technique,”
Ling Xue explained slowly. “While it’s incredibly powerful, the backlash is equally severe. Such a trump card isn’t suitable for soone traveling alone.”
That kind of trump card, once used, would leave you weak and defenseless.
Without companions by your side, it was best not to use it.
For this reason, he didn’t want to pass it on to Lin Feng.
First, because she wouldn’t need it, and second, because he didn’t want her to beco too reckless after gaining such a powerful technique.
A person who becos too reckless will eventually et a bad end.
He had the confidence to handle it, but as for Lin Feng… it was better for her to be cautious.
He didn’t want to lose a valuable ally!
“I understand!” Lin Feng nodded heavily. She naturally appreciated Ling Xue’s careful consideration.
Ling Xue wanted her to tread carefully in the world, to steadily grow stronger.
Not to rely on a reckless move and blindly charge ahead, only to fall without knowing when or where.
“Once you’re ready, you can set off at any ti,” Ling Xue continued.
Lin Feng acknowledged this with a sound and added,
“Master… there is one more thing I don’t quite understand!”
“You want to ask why I mastered the complete Qiankun Sword Technique despite only having obtained the remnants?” Ling Xue anticipated her question.
“Yes!” Lin Feng nodded.
This was sothing that had puzzled her for a long ti.
Why had Ling Xue asked her to place the remnants in the ancient tomb?
And how had he been able to comprehend the entire Qiankun Sword Technique from just the remnants?
No matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn’t figure it out!
