I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency - Chapter 355
Chapter 355: Coming Out of Seclusion, Peak of the Nascent
Soul Stage (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Yuan’s cultivation speed was so fast that it could only mean one thing, and that was that his previous cultivation was completely inferior to his true potential.
Thinking about it, it made sense. First, he had painstakingly cultivated in the Disha Sword Cities for over a hundred years and learned all of the Disha Swordsmanship.
After that, he stayed in the Phoenix Empire’s Sutra Depository for more than a hundred years and learned all the cultivation techniques and divine abilities below the Nascent Soul Stage.
Although his cultivation had not improved in the past two hundred years, his cultivation potential had improved by an unknown amount.
Therefore, although he did not seem to have cultivated for the past 200 years, he did what many cultivators could not do even after hundreds or thousands of years of secluded cultivation.
Therefore, he could not be considered to have advanced from the first level of the Nascent Soul Stage to the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage in 300 years.
Instead, it took him 500 years.
But even so, his cultivation speed was still very shocking.
Just as Lu Yuan finished his cultivation, a voice entered his ears.
“Since your cultivation is over, then come over.”
Hearing that familiar voice, Lu Yuan stood up and walked in a certain direction outside the garden.
After leaving the garden, Lu Yuan quickly saw Gu Qiuyue waiting for him in the immortal courtyard.
Lu Yuan walked forward as he looked at Gu Qiuyue, who was still as beautiful as ever.
“Lu Yuan pays his respects to Your Majesty.”
Gu Qiuyue did not respond immediately. Instead, she began to observe Lu Yuan’s current state.
After discovering that Lu Yuan had already reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, Gu Qiuyue’s expression did not change.
However, internally, she was extremely shocked.
She had only sensed Lu Yuan’s aura earlier and had not observed much.
Therefore, she did not notice Lu Yuan’s shocking improvement.
After discovering Lu Yuan’s terrifying improvement, Gu Qiuyue couldn’t help but say, “Your talent seems to be far beyond my imagination. In the tens of thousands of years that the Spirit Sword Sect has stood, only two reincarnated true immortals have achieved Apotheosis Stage within a thousand years.”
“I see your age is about 800 years old. Could you be the legendary reincarnated true immortal?”
Hearing this, Lu Yuan was instantly stunned.
Even though he knew that there was always someone who was stronger than him, he still didn’t expect that there would be someone whose cultivation speed could match his.
He knew very well how difficult it was for him to reach this step.
From this, one could see how terrifying those two reincarnated true immortals were.
It was hard to imagine how powerful they were when they were alive.
However, if he were to encounter these two people, Lu Yuan felt that he should still have a very high chance of winning.
He dared to show his true cultivation to Gu Qiuyue because his trump card was far above the things that his cultivation had revealed.
Whether it was his Dharma Idol or the exclusive cultivation technique, the Primordial Innate Qi Technique he was cultivating, they were all methods that allowed him to easily kill enemies of a higher level.
Moreover, enemies of a much higher level.
He was confident that he, at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, could compete with a cultivator at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage.
If Lu Yuan showed all his potential, he would have the chance to become one of the Sword Masters of Spirit Sword Sect.
However, as a steady person, Lu Yuan naturally wouldn’t do something as stupid as completely exposing his trump card.
After observing Lu Yuan for a moment, Gu Qiuyue smiled and said, “Originally, I thought that you came out of seclusion because cultivating was dull and came out to adjust a little. But now, it seems that this is not the case. You have completed your secluded cultivation.”
“That’s good too. Your current cultivation has already reached the level where you can help me complete some things.”
“Don’t worry, what I’m asking you to do isn’t difficult, and it won’t cause you any danger. Moreover, after you complete it, it will bring you quite a bit of benefit.”
“I wonder how much do you know about the sword intent of the 36 Big Dipper Sword Domains?”
Lu Yuan shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know much.
After all, the Big Dipper sword intents were the foundation of the Spirit Sword Sect. Previously, Lu Yuan hadn’t fully joined the Spirit Sword Sect, so he naturally couldn’t know this secret information.
“In that case, 1’11 tell you the characteristics of these sword intents first.”
“Although the 36 Big Dipper sword intents seem a lot, they can be generally divided into the following category.”
“1. Root Bone sword intent. The effects of this category of sword intent can subtly improve a cultivator’s root bone, allowing the cultivator to be reborn.”
“2. Comprehension sword intent. This category of sword intent is rather special and is often very obscure and difficult to understand for cultivators. However, once a cultivator can comprehend a thing or two from it, it will also be of great help to their comprehension. Our Speed Star Sword Domain’s Pheonix sword intent falls under this category,”
“3. Killing Sword Intent. This category of sword intent is the most common among all sword intents, and its effect is also the most obvious. After cultivating these sword intents, it can greatly increase the killing ability of a cultivator. The white tiger slaughter sword intent in the Killer Star Sword Domain is an example of an extremely powerful killing sword intent.”
“4. Non-offensive sword intent. This category of sword intent includes the Root Bone sword intent and Comprehension sword intent. However, the reason why it has a category on its own is to integrate those special sword intents that don’t have killing purposes. The Purgatory Sword of the Guilt Star Sword Domain is an example of such special sword intents.”
“The reason why I’m telling you this is that our generation of Spirit Sword Sect cultivators will never only cultivate within one Sword Domain.”
“Or rather, only mediocre people would spend their entire lives unable to comprehend a type of sword intent.”
“The way of the sword may seem like the sea of rivers, but in reality, all paths lead to the same destination.”
“Rumor has it that if someone can learn all the sword intents in the Thirty-Six Big Dipper Sword Domains, then he will be able to comprehend the ancient Immortal Slaying Sword.”
“Such sword intent can even kill immortals.”
“Unfortunately, the current highest record of the Spirit Sword Sect was thirty-one Big Dipper Sword Intent. The person who holds this record is the current patriarch of the Spirit Sword Sect, one of the only two reincarnations of true immortals in the history of Spirit Sword Sect, Mountain Sea Immortal Xiang Yang, Daoist Xiang.”
“Logically speaking, as a true immortal in his previous life, it shouldn’t be difficult for a true immortal to learn the Thirty-six Big Dipper Sword Intent.”
“In reality, it’s about the same. If you take out the thirty-six Big Dipper sword intents individually, Daoist Xiang can completely master any one of them in a hundred years at most.”
“However, the Immortal Slaying Sword requires thirty-six Big Dipper sword intents to be combined into one. And with every Big Dipper sword intent learned, it becomes more and more difficult to comprehend a new one.”
“To a large extent, this is because some Big Dipper sword intents are not only different from each other, but some even have two completely different directions.”
“The deeper a cultivator’s comprehension of a certain Big Dipper Sword Domain, the greater the resistance they will encounter when encountering some completely opposite Big Dipper sword intents.”
“Therefore, after Daoist Xiang learned the 31st Big Dipper sword intent, he declared that he could not continue any further.”
“He could feel that the sword intent origin that he had fused with the thirty-one Big Dipper sword intents was very resistant to the remaining five Big Dipper sword intents.”
“He also said that the reason why he couldn’t succeed wasn’t because of his comprehension ability, but because his physical body couldn’t continue to bear the sword intent.”
“He felt that unless one was the reincarnation of those legendary ancient godfiends who were born and raised by the heavens and earth, and relied on their special bodies as carriers, no one would be able to learn all thirty-six Big Dipper sword intents.”
“Forcefully learning it will only cause your body to disintegrate under the boundless sword intent.”
“I’m not telling you this so that you could try and learn the entire Big Dipper Sword Domain. That’s impossible because there are no more so-called ancient godfiend in this world.”
“What 1 want to tell you is actually a matter of choice.”
“Although 1 am not sure how much Big Dipper sword intents your body can withstand, with your current aptitude, even if you can’t compare to Daoist Xiang, the gap shouldn’t be too big.”
“A conservative estimate is that you can learn at least 20 Big Dipper sword intents.”
“How to choose the twenty Big Dipper sword intents that are most suitable for you among the thirty-six Big Dipper sword intents is what 1 want to tell you. And also, what I want you to do….”
