Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Sword Of Glory To Nine Heavens

"The 'Water-Stopping Scripture' is a water attribute heart technique that is highly compatible with Chu Shen's spiritual roots. However, it has the lowest rank among the three divine techniques, and since he already possesses the 'Qi Refining Formula,' which includes similar techniques, it was immediately abandoned.

Chu Shen hesitated for a moment between the 'Sky-Piercing Arrow' and the 'Heaven-Conquering Sword.'

Although the 'Sky-Piercing Arrow' is a heavenly-ranked divine technique, archery cultivation is very niche in the cultivation world. As a long-range attack method, archery does not have many advantages in the cultivation world. It is considered somewhat mediocre since there are numerous long-range attack methods in the cultivation world, such as spells, flying swords, magical tools, and talismans, which have a longer attack range than arrows.

Archery is easy to learn but difficult to master, and it heavily relies on talent, further narrowing its application range and learning space.

In addition, heavenly-ranked divine techniques often represent difficulties in cultivation, resource consumption, and high aptitude requirements.

On the other hand, the 'Heaven-Conquering Sword,' which belongs to swordsmanship, is more suitable for Chu Shen's current needs. It not only includes long-range flying sword techniques but also close combat skills.

Although it is an earthly-ranked divine technique, its practicality is much higher than that of the 'Sky-Piercing Arrow.'

In the end, he chose the 'Heaven-Conquering Sword.'

With the selection of the divine technique, the 'Hidden Dragon Scripture' and the 'Heaven-Conquering Sword' were inputted into Chu Shen's mind by the system as if being poured into it.

Unlike the techniques deduced from the 'Qi Refining Formula,' which still need to be practiced slowly, these two divine techniques were directly engraved into his body in the form of muscle memory.

Silently recalling the key formulas and following the muscle memory, he began to cultivate. The divine techniques, which were initially unfamiliar and distant, started to become familiar to him, gradually harmonizing as he immersed himself in cultivation.

The 'Hidden Dragon Scripture' embodies a body technique resembling a swimming dragon, while the 'Heaven-Conquering Sword' allows Chu Shen to control the sword around his body. It is as if he is wearing a suit of sword armor, and wherever he goes, his sharpness is revealed, leaving behind a trail of slaughter."

As he became more and more proficient, he eventually integrated the two, and as his figure changed, a faint sword light cast a divine dragon in the void, roaring in the sharp sword wind.

Until Chu Shen felt completely satisfied, he rode the dragon, flew with the sword, and transformed into a sword aura, like a reverse shooting meteor, soaring into the sky - he realized something was wrong, if he ended the move towards the ground, he might destroy his own yard, so he quickly vented towards the sky.

With this divine sword, he pierced a big hole in the sky, and only then did everything calm down, but Chu Shen himself was exhausted and lay down.

He was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, theoretically unable to control such a high-level divine technique, but under the guidance of the system, he was able to display it in the most subtle way.

As a result, he went beyond his limits in the heat of the moment and ended up exhausted.

It was fortunate that he was clever enough to realize something was wrong and quickly stopped. If he had been deceived by the false power and continued to use it, he would have been torn apart by the formed moves.

As a sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator, Shangguan Shurong quickly noticed something unusual. When she arrived, she saw Chu Shen giving himself a "Spiritual Qi Baptism" and stuffing Spiritual Qi Pills into his mouth.

The emotionally deficient female cultivator instinctively scanned her surroundings, searching for enemies.

The sword that just erupted here was majestic and terrifying, definitely a master, and even though she was severely lacking in emotions, a slight ripple arose in her heart at this moment, her expression becoming serious.

"It's okay, it's not an enemy, it's just that I made a big noise while practicing, almost exposing myself."

The Spiritual Qi Pills produced by the system were very powerful. Chu Shen, who was almost exhausted a moment ago, swallowed a handful of them, and now he could feel the Spiritual Qi in his body recovering rapidly. The originally dried up meridians were once again nourished by Spiritual Qi.

Shangguan Shurong tilted her head, seemingly puzzled by how a fourth-level Qi Refining cultivator could unleash such an astonishing sword.

Chu Shen smiled wryly and did not answer. He sat cross-legged and began to circulate the Qi in his body.

Seeing him enter the state of practicing, Shangguan Shurong remained quiet, holding a long spear and standing aside to protect him.

Speaking of which, the weapon chosen by this female cultivator from the "Red Dust Path" is quite unique, it's actually a long spear.

The spear is the king of a hundred weapons, every inch of it is strong. Many people use it, but female cultivators often don't like to use it and prefer to use sword-like weapons. This is probably because carrying and using a long spear is not as aesthetically pleasing as a sword.

Moreover, the weapons of cultivators often need to consider being transformed into magical instruments. Long spears are cheap to make in the mortal world, as long as you have a spearhead and a spear shaft, you're good to go. However, if a cultivator wants to use a long spear as a magical instrument, the materials used will definitely surpass those of swords and other weapons.

Another reason is that spear techniques are easy to learn but difficult to master. It's said that one can spend a lifetime practicing the spear, just like the saying "a lifetime of spear instead of a year of staff or a lifetime of sword". This is also true in the cultivation world, where the inheritance of spear techniques is quite troublesome.

But Shangguan Shurong's posture of holding a spear and standing is truly heroic and beautiful. Coupled with her long legs, if it weren't for Chu Shen's current lack of strength, they would probably have fought hundreds of rounds right then and there.

After a while, Ning Xiangyue and the other concubines also rushed over. How could they not feel the commotion caused by Chu Shen here in Hengyuan when they lived together?

There were even people outside Hengyuan who were spying.

...

Among the three major sects in Nanping City, the "Taiping Sect" is located in the south of the city, the "Yangyuan Sect" is located in the west of the city, and the training ground of the "Yunshan Sword Sect" is located in the east of the city.

This is related to the philosophies of the three sects.

The "Taiping Sect" emphasizes teaching without discrimination and likes to interact with the lower class, engaging in educational activities.

The "Yangyuan Sect" worships wealth and desires, and is most at home in commercial areas like the west of the city.

【Cloud Mountain Sword Sect】is known for its aloofness and caters to the tastes of the upper class, making it particularly popular in the eastern part of the city.

Chu Shen's sword strike was so powerful that it caught the attention of the three major sects, who noticed the anomaly.

The Cloud Mountain Sword Sect is the closest to the incident. The sect leader, Zhang Jiao, is a martial arts fanatic and has gained some insights into Chu Shen's sword technique. He personally went to find a master who could perform this move, but only found Chu Shen meditating to recover. Thinking that the master had already left, Zhang Jiao immediately turned around and searched the surroundings.

A disciple from the Yangyuan Sect arrived and respectfully knocked on the door, inquiring about what had happened in Hengyuan before.

This is probably because the Yangyuan Sect also has a stake in the business of Yufu Lu and maintains a respectful attitude towards Chu Shen, the God of Wealth.

The Taiping Sect, on the other hand, silently observed. The sect leader stood on the high tower of the sect, gazing into the distance at Hengyuan, squinting his eyes as he pondered something, as if recalling the mysteries contained in the sword light just now.

Of course, the three major sects are no match for the large sects and even sacred grounds. In the cultivation world, they are just small local sects in the corner. However, they still have Foundation Building cultivators, such as the three sect leaders.

But that sword light made even the Foundation Building stage sect leaders feel a sense of dread. They couldn't help but be suspicious, wondering if a powerful expert had come to Nanping City.

They wouldn't associate this sword light with Chu Shen because they didn't know that Chu Shen was already a Qi Refining stage cultivator at the fourth level. Even if they knew, they wouldn't think that the sword light could be unleashed by a Qi Refining stage cultivator at the fourth level.

They were all speculating whether someone from the Chu family had arrived, such as the senior of the Qi Refining stage cultivator at the sixth level.

If so, would they have the opportunity to receive some teachings?

Even the three sect leaders were eager to make further progress.
