Chapter 262 Golden Talent, Unethical in Martial Conduct! Path of the Sword Immortal! (10,000 words, combined chapter)_4
[Familiar with the area beyond the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, you awoke.]
[Relying on your previous memories, you quickly pinpointed the coordinates and set off for White Emperor City.]
[You rented an inn in White Emperor City and stayed for a year.]
[During this time, you sold one hundred Gathering Spirit Flowers, receiving ten million low-grade Spirit Stones.]
[Although there were risks, with your strength, you could still safeguard ten million Spirit Stones.]
[In the thirty-fourth year, you visited the Heavenly Secret Pavilion to purchase relevant information.]
[This time, you wanted to buy information regarding swift methods to improve your understanding of Sword Dao.]
[Although the conditions were harsh, you obtained a crucial piece of information after paying the price of eight million Spirit Stones.]
[Within the Three Thousand Worlds, there exists a mysterious fruit called the Spirit Sword Fruit, which contains the origin of the sword within it. If consumed by a cultivator with an Innate Sword Body, it could equal a century of hard practice for an ordinary sword cultivator, greatly enhancing their understanding of Sword Dao!]
[Upon receiving this information, you were delighted and wanted to purchase information on the location of the Spirit Sword Fruit.]
[But the fruit was too rare, and it didn't exist in the Little Qingyun Realm. The Heavenly Secret Pavilion informed you that possibly the major forces of the Three Thousand Worlds possessed such a fruit.]
[Hearing this, you sighed, knowing that you had to visit the Qingyun Sect again!]
Su Xing looked at the text in front of him and raised an eyebrow.
"Spirit Sword Fruit... a miraculous fruit that could enhance understanding of Sword Dao!"
"Three Thousand Worlds, indeed, contains countless wonders... If these precious resources could be obtained, it would surely lead to rapid growth!"
Consuming a Spirit Sword Fruit equaled a century of hard practice for an average sword cultivator.
And for Su Xing, with his Innate Sword Body, it could probably equal ten years of practice!
This was equivalent to the effect of a Spirit Awakening Pill over a month!
Calculating in this way, going to the Qingyun Sect was worth it...
"Tsk, tsk, although the great mountain of Qing Yunzi looms overhead, shortening the simulation time upon arrival at the Qingyun Sect... those Heaven and Earth Treasures are still too tempting!"
Su Xing knew that in the Little Qingyun Realm, he, a rootless loose cultivator, would find it extremely difficult to obtain such precious Heaven and Earth Treasures.
But in the Qingyun Sect, it was different...
With this thought, Su Xing turned his gaze to the Simulation Panel.
[You made up your mind to head to the Qingyun Sect.]
[But before that, you had to go to Little Qingyun City to contact Danhuo True Immortal.]
[Thus, you did not hesitate any longer, immediately set off, and took a flying boat to Little Qingyun City.]
[You practiced in peace within Little Qingyun City, and after a few years, the Qingyun Sect's grand recruitment ceremony officially began!]
[After the recruitment ended, you revealed your identity and garnered the attention of Danhuo True Immortal, who addressed you respectfully as a senior.]
[Danhuo True Immortal told you that in a few years, he would return to the Qingyun Realm and rejoin the Qingyun Sect. At that time, you could join him.]
[You naturally agreed and continued cultivating peacefully in Little Qingyun City.]
[In the fortieth year, your cultivation level advanced again, reaching the mid-sixth stage of the Mahayana Realm in Qi Refinement.]
[Simultaneously, your understanding of the Heavenly Sword Technique also improved significantly, but to your disappointment, you still failed to trigger an epiphany.]
[In the same year, led by Danhuo True Immortal, you headed for the Qingyun Realm.]
[The flying boat traversed the void, and after a month, you arrived at the Qingyun Sect.]
[Meanwhile, news spread throughout the sect that Qing Yunzi had not fallen.]
[You received precious gifts from a few senior brothers and sisters and were granted a Cave Heaven Level cave mansion.]
[After some time, you contacted Immortal Ziling and traded Gathering Spirit Flowers with her.]
[You received one million-five hundred thousand contribution points, so you started looking for ways to purchase the Spirit Sword Fruit.]
[The Spirit Sword Fruit was extremely precious, even for Immortal Realm cultivators, it was nearly unattainable.]
[But within the Qingyun Sect, with its mountains of Heaven and Earth Treasures, you found the Spirit Sword Fruit in the sect's treasure vault.]
[A Spirit Sword Fruit was worth fifty thousand sect contribution points!]
[Although the price was steep, you decisively exchanged for it.]
[After exchanging for the Spirit Sword Fruit, you returned to your cave mansion to consume it.]
[The Spirit Sword Fruit was entirely golden, resembling a small sword. With just one bite, the whole fruit transformed into sword light and entered your body.]
[You immediately felt a strand of pure Sword Intent rampaging within you.]
[You quickly sat in meditation, beginning to absorb this Sword Intent...]
[Your Innate Sword Body talent played a massive role at this moment.]n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
[Three days later, when you opened your eyes again, a sword light flashed in them.]
[Consuming the Spirit Sword Fruit did not bring your understanding of the Heavenly Sword Technique to perfection, but it did equal more than ten years of hard practice.]
[You could feel that you were now on the threshold of perfecting your Sword Intent, requiring only another fifty to sixty years of practice to fully grasp the true essence of the sword.]
[The only regret was that such a precious fruit could only be consumed once in a lifetime.]
In the real world, Su Xing saw up to this point and felt a pang of regret in his heart.
"What a pity... I consumed the Spirit Sword Fruit but still didn't perfect my Sword Intent..."
"This Heavenly Sword Technique is really too challenging... Even with my Innate Sword Body, it takes one to two hundred years of dedicated practice to go from entry-level to perfection."
"For an ordinary sword cultivator, wouldn't it take two to three thousand years to master it?"
Su Xing clicked his tongue, feeling a bit wistful.
This cultivation world certainly valued talent.
An average cultivator simply could not practice the sword!
The hardest part of perfecting the Heavenly Sword Technique was understanding the origin of the sword...
The true essence of the sword was the foundational construct of the Great Sword Dao. If mastered perfectly, one could hope to achieve Sword Immortal!
