Swordsmen Guild headquarters…
Li Fuchen12Li FuchenMain Protagonist was handing over the mission. He had already completed everything for this mission.
He didn’t just find the Black Whirlpool Island and even found that missing sword dao saint in the Nine Illusions Hidden Domain.
“I didn’t imagine that the Nine Illusions Hidden Domain could trap so many saints. Even the Heaven Ruin Lord has been trapped for ten years.” The Mystic Deep Sword Saint had a grave expression.
If he entered the Nine Illusions Hidden Domain, he would probably be stuck there too.
While thinking until this point, the Mystic Deep Sword Saint looked at Li Fuchen with a profound look.
Li Fuchen was simply immeasurable to the Mystic Deep Sword Saint. Not simply with strength, but also Li Fuchen’s methods of doing things.
It seemed like Li Fuchen had a great fated opportunity.
Of course, the Mystic Deep Sword Saint wasn’t a man of greed and jealousy. He wouldn’t covet Li Fuchen’s fated opportunity. He knew clearly that he wouldn’t be able to deal with people that had such heaven-defying fate. If he was blinded by greed, he might be in a treacherous state. With Li Fuchen’s speed of progression, if he couldn’t take Li Fuchen down this time, he would just be waiting for a horrific revenge.
Shangguan Yu was stunned by the cultivation environment when she arrived at the Saint Spirit Continent.
She was confident that she could progress to the high-levels of Law Phase Realm within ten years. If she was still at the Black Water Continent, she might not be able to achieve the same within a hundred years.
It seemed like Shangguan Yu still had some distracting thoughts. But after arriving at the Saint Spirit Continent, she only had one thought. She was going to cultivate diligently and only by doing so, the gap between her and Li Fuchen wouldn’t be too far.
She too had a dream to become an expert. A Law Phase Realm emperor could live for 2000 years, but a Soul Merge Realm saint could live for at least 10,000 years. With such a long lifespan, she would be able to do the things she wanted and roam the world carefreely.
After making arrangements for Shangguan Yu, Li Fuchen visited the guild’s library pavilion.
With the mission completed, Li Fuchen now had 120 million guild points.
This amount of guild points might still be unremarkable as compared to the various sword dao manuals available, but it was already praiseworthy. At least for the current Li Fuchen, it was particularly important.
Li Fuchen didn’t flip through any sword art manuals, he chose to flip through the sword dao technique manuals.
The objective and functions of a sword art and a sword dao technique were different.
The sword art was meant to make use of the sword dao law to produce lethal power. The sword dao technique was to combine oneself with the sword dao law and evolve.
In comparison with sword art manuals, there were much lesser sword dao technique manuals. There were only less than 10% of the total sword art manuals.
“Parting Sky Sword Scripture. Each read would cost 1 million guild points, borrowing it for a year would cost 500 million guild points.”
“Sea Monarch Sword Technique. Each read would cost 1.2 million guild points, borrowing it for a year would cost 600 million guild points.”
“Ternary Sword Technique. Each read would cost 1.5 million guild points, borrowing it for a year would cost 750 million guild points.”
…
“Skyless Sword Tiger Technique. Each read would cost 5 million guild points, borrowing it for a year would cost 2.5 billion guild points.”
As compared to sword art manuals, sword technique manuals were several times pricer. The Skyless Sword Tiger Technique actually had the same name as the Skyless Sword Tiger Art in the sword art manuals. Li Fuchen reckoned that the two were a set and it was just like his Primary Extreme Sword Technique and Primary Extreme Sword Art.
“Let’s start from the unrated apex sword techniques.”
Coming in front of the Parting Sky Sword Scripture, Li Fuchen placed his elder token there. Immediately after, the elder token had 1 million lesser guild points.
Subsequently, Li Fuchen arrived at a spatial zone in the void. There were a total of ten illusory figures in front of him.
Each figure corresponded with a rank.
It also meant that the Parting Sky Sword Scripture had a total of 10 ranks, unlike Li Fuchen’s Primary Extreme Sword Technique which already had 42 ranks and still didn’t reach apex state.
Li Fuchen observed carefully from the 1st rank.
2nd rank, 3rd rank…
Soon enough, Li Fuchen observed the first 9 ranks of the Parting Sky Sword Technique.
“The first 9 ranks aren’t at the apex state. It means that the 10th rank is the apex state.”
Li Fuchen looked at the 10th figure.
As expected, the points and lines within the 10th figure were much more complex and also much more mystical. The points and lines were linked organically and formed a sword diagram. A powerful sword dao law was radiating and brewing.
“As compared to the Parting Sky Sword Scripture, the Primary Extreme Sword Technique is too confusing.” After reading the Parting Sky Sword Scripture once, Li Fuchen frowned.
Complex and confusing were two different things.
Confusing meant there was redundancy that had to be removed.
After reading it once, Li Fuchen read through it a second time.
The Parting Sky Sword Scripture was irrelevant to the Primary Extreme Sword Technique, but each sword technique had its own essence and involved the human body mysteries. The so-called human body mysteries had to be sensed with the heart and couldn’t be discerned by the eyes.
Two times, three times, four times…
Li Fuchen read through the Parting Sky Sword Scripture 15 times at once and finally found all the human body mysteries within.
“It is indeed an apex sword technique. The first 9 ranks only involved three human body mysteries. The 10th rank immediately involved seven human body mysteries.”
Li Fuchen didn’t plan on comprehending the Parting Sky Sword Scripture completely, his objective was to comprehend more human body mysteries.
His Primary Extreme Sword Technique had a total of 42 ranks, but only involved five human body mysteries.
Next up, Li Fuchen started to read through the Sea Monarch Sword Technique.
It was also an unrated apex sword technique, but it involved eight human body mysteries. Therefore, the sword dao law produced was much stronger than the Parting Sky Sword Scripture.
However, the two sword techniques had three common human body mysteries.
It was due to the three common human body mysteries, Li Fuchen only required ten reads to find all the human body mysteries.
When Li Fuchen spent 40 million guild points, he had read through four unrated sword technique manuals.
They were the Parting Sky Sword Scripture, Sea Monarch Sword Technique, Ternary Sword Technique, and the Nine Revolutions Fusion Heart Sword Dao.
The Parting Sky Sword Technique had seven human body mysteries, the Sea Monarch Sword Technique had eight, the Ternary Sword Technique had nine, while the Nine Revolutions Fusion Heart Sword Dao had nine too.
There were a total of 15 human body mysteries that weren’t repeated.
“Let’s take a look at the Skyless Sword Tiger Technique.”
With 80 million guild points left, Li Fuchen wanted to know how many human body mysteries were involved in a 3rd rate apex sword technique.
With 5 million guild points vanishing, 12 illusory figures appeared.
The Skyless Sword Tiger Technique had a total of 12 ranks. From the 11th rank onwards, it was already the apex state.
One time, two times…
After reading ten times, Li Fuchen took a deep breath. The Skyless Sword Tiger Technique involved 20 human body mysteries. It was more than two times as compared to the Ternary Sword Technique and the Nine Revolutions Fusion Heart Sword Dao.
It was imaginable that if there was a fight, the sword dao saint that cultivated the Skyless Sword Tiger Technique could crush a sword dao saint who cultivated an unrated apex sword technique.
“It seems like I need to simplify the Primary Extreme Sword Technique. With its current confusing state, even if I push it to the apex state, it wouldn’t have much potential.”
Li Fuchen had plans in his heart.
At the current juncture, his objective shouldn’t be to push the Primary Extreme Sword Technique to the apex state. Instead, he would be simplifying it and enhancing it at the same time.
The Parting Sky Sword Scripture and the Sea Monarch Sword Technique only involved three human body mysteries at the before the apex state. The Ternary Sword Technique and the Nine Revolutions Fusion Heart Sword Dao involved four, while the Skyless Sword Tiger Technique involved six.
Therefore, Li Fuchen’s target was to let the Primary Extreme Sword Technique involve at least six human body mysteries before reaching apex state.
After leaving the library pavilion, Li Fuchen returned to the manor and started his seclusion.
