That was true. Flying on a sword was one of Zeng Jing's goals.
In the past, he had seen countless games and anime. The protagonist in them was simply awesome when he flew on a sword.
He need not be strong, but he had to be handsome!
Strength could always be caught up, handsomeness was for a lifetime.
Zeng Jing chuckled and said, "As long as I break through to the Earth Fire Realm, you'll teach me how to ride a sword, right? Very good, I'll break through quickly."
He walked towards his Spirit Gathering Formation energetically.
It wasn't until he disappeared that the Loli Sect Master sighed and said in a low voice, "Senior Sister, did you realize that Junior Brother is not cultivating to become an immortal, but rather only for the Sword Control Techniques and the Myriad Sword Techniques?"
Bai Yan replied, "Actually, I've noticed it a long time ago. He's asked about the Sword Control Technique and the Myriad Sword Techniques several times, and he doesn't seem to be interested in anything else."
"Such a goal is really too short-sighted. It's very easy for people to become lazy after achieving their goal and stop cultivating diligently. It's difficult to reach the Great Dao like this."The Loli Sect Master said.
Bai Yan bitterly smiled. "Everyone has their own aspirations. No one can forceIf Junior Brother if he doesn't want to ascend to immortality. If he wants to act cool, then let him. We can't force our ideals on others."
She had forgotten that the Zeng Jing actually had another goal, which was to reach the Essence Soul Realm and learn the Fire Rebirth Technique to help her refine her muscles and marrow. The main reason was that this goal was too elusive. Even her Uncle-Master could not achieve it, so how could she dare to expect Zeng Jing to do it?
The Loli Sect Master said, "But if you can't improve yourself and break through to a new realm, you won't be able to increase your lifespan. You'll die early like a mortal. I don't want Junior Brother to die so early."
Bai Yan sighed, "Life! It's all fate! Senior Sister will leave before you. You have to be mentally prepared."
Bai Yan did a divination for herself. Her original lifespan was 84 years old. When she successfully entered the Qi Refinement Realm, her lifespan increased by 20 years. After breaking through the Qi Refinement and entering the Core Formation Realm, her lifespan increased by 50 years. Therefore, her current lifespan was 154 years old…
Her comprehension ability was too low and her potential was insufficient. After cultivating to this point, she could no longer advance any further. She would probably only live to 154 years old in this lifetime. The Sect Master Junior Sister, on the other hand, had outstanding talent. She would definitely continue to break through realm after realm. It was not a problem for her to live for thousands of years.
The path of cultivation was just this cruel. One would constantly bid farewell to their family and friends with inferior talent on the path of cultivation. The more talented a person was, the longer they would live, but the more lonely they would be. In the end, when they ascended to immortality, their family and friends would probably be all dead.
This person could ascend to the heavens without any worries since there was nothing left in the world for him or her…
At this moment, Zeng Jing was on the way to the Spirit Gathering Formation, preparing to work hard to break through the Earth Fire Realm and fly on his sword as soon as possible.
His Spirit Gathering Formation was built in the forest behind the mountain. He had to pass by the granary on the way.
When he walked by the granary, his gaze fell on the bunches of red peppers under the roof. He couldn't help but think to myself, "Right! The last few times I ate chili was to convert attributeless cultivation into fire-attribute and then use it to activate my cultivation method. Perhaps I can try to convert attributeless cultivation into fire-attribute and use it to break through realms?"
This seemed to be spoiling things by undue haste, but so what if I hastened it in order to fly on a sword?
Won''t it be stupid not to use the cheat?
He plucked a bunch of chili and held it in his hand. Then, he went to the Spirit Gathering Formation at the back of the mountain.
Sitting in the eye of the formation, he first took out the Blazing Sun Flame Refinement Art secret manual. Sure enough, there was a section in the middle that talked about the realm. There were three minor realms, which were also bottlenecks of the Qi Refinement Realm, namely the Earth Fire Realm, Human Fire Realm, and Heavenly Fire Realm.
Every bottleneck had a detailed introduction; how to circulate one's energy, how to break through, and how much benefits one could obtain after breaking through.
Zeng Jing did not look at so many complicated things first. He only looked at the "Earth Fire Realm". This realm could be considered the entry level of the Qi Refinement Realm. It was not difficult to break through. It was just right to use fire-attribute spiritual energy to advance.
When one's cultivation reached the point where they could break through this realm, they would feel that there seemed to be a layer of membrane in their Purple Mansion that suppressed their cultivation and prevented it from increasing. At this time, they had to use all their strength to break through this membrane with spiritual energy. Once they succeeded, their lifespan would increase by seven years, their resistance to cold would increase by 10 degrees and their resistance to heat would increase by 20 degrees.
After that, he could truly control the fire-attribute spiritual energy at will, inject it into the Dharma treasure to activate it and let it fly into the sky. This was the so-called "Artifact Controlling Technique".
Flying on a sword was just one of the ways to use the Artifact Control Technique.
Zeng Jing memorized the method to break through the realm. Then, he resolutely stuffed a handful of chili into his mouth. He felt that his mouth was so spicy that it was numb. His entire body began to heat up. He quickly sat cross-legged and followed the secret manual's instructions.
Flying on a sword was just one of the ways to use the Artifact Control Technique.
If he wanted to breakthrough to the Earth Fire Realm, he first had to let the fire-attribute spiritual energy reach the membrane in his Purple Mansion, which was the so-called bottleneck.
Zeng Jing's Purple Mansion only had a very small ball of fire-attribute spiritual energy. His cultivation level was about a month, which was very pitiful.
However, the situation was different after eating the chili. The ball of terrifying 4.6 billion years of cultivation was fuming hot. It looked like fire-attribute spiritual energy. Zeng Jing carefully controlled it and gently separated a small ball from it, stuffing it into his fire-attribute spiritual energy…
He then stirred it evenly!
It was like adding Sprite to Pepsi and stirring it. Even though the two were not the same thing, it was difficult to tell with the naked eye or the tongue.
Swoosh!
The fire-attribute spiritual energy suddenly soared and instantly reached the membrane of the bottleneck.
Zeng Jing hurriedly followed the instructions of the secret manual and circulated his energy to break through!
With all his might!
"Bam!"
The membrane-like bottleneck broke through easily.
He attained the Earth Fire Realm!
When an ordinary person broke through a realm, they would feel that they had become much stronger. However, Zeng Jing didn't feel that he had become stronger at all. It was as if he had casually advanced a level. The only thing he was happy about was that he could learn the Sword Control Technique. He hurriedly went to Bai Yan to learn the Sword Control Technique.
At the same time, further away from the back of the mountain, two itinerant cultivators had just descended from the sky and put away their Dharma treasures. They stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the valley where the Immortal Sword Sect was located from afar. They could only see a large area of ruins in the valley from the top of the mountain.
One of the Itinerant cultivators smiled and said, "And this is the famous Shu Mountain Immortal Sword Sect."
The other person chuckled and said, "I heard from the people of the Qingcheng Sect that the Immortal Sword Sect was not completely wiped out. There were two female disciples who survived, one in the Core Formation Realm, one in the Qi Refinement Realm. There's also a male disciple who had just joined the sect. Hehehe."
The first one who spoke smiled. "This is a really good time to steal."
