Chapter 206: Chapter 205: Xiang Yun’s Sword Formation Dao
Translator: 549690339
Xu Fan’s sword pierced directly into Wang Xiangchi’s heart and mind.
In Wang Xiangchi’s spiritual world, a Heavenly Sword had appeared.
The Sword Intent entwined around the Heavenly Sword, entranced Wang Xiangchi.
“Breaking Armor, Expelling Evil, Demon Removal, Slaying Demons”
“Mountain Opening, Earth Breaking, Sea Controlling, Radiant Sky”
After experiencing all the Sword Intent, Wang Xiangchi looked at Xu Fan,
“Thanks to Master for bestowing his disciple with the Sword Dao Divine
Ability.”
Hearing his disciple’s words, Xu Fan waved his hand unconcernedly.
“Why the pointless courtesy, I taught you the divine power so you could protect your master better in the future.”
“These Eight Swords represent my current understanding of Sword Dao, as for the Great Sword Divine Ability you wish to learn.”
Speaking up to here Xu Fan paused momentarily before speaking the truth.
“Your Sword Dao cultivation is still shallow, discuss the Great Sword Divine
Ability once you advance to the God Transformation Stage.”
If Xu Fan had not borrowed the hand of a Void Refining Puppet that day, he himself would not have been able to perform it.
“Disciple understands.” Wang Xiangchi said regretfully.
“As long as you understand, go and comprehend Sword Dao.” Xu Fan said while smiling.
“At your command.”
Wang Xiangchi transformed into a sword light and flew toward Hidden Spirit Island.
Watching Wang Xiangchi’s sword light, Xu Fan somehow thought of Ye Xiaoyao, it seemed like a very long time since he had seen him.
“According to the cultivation world, considering the protagonist’s growth law, Ye Xiaoyao should have advanced to the God Transformation Stage and should currently be in the process of slaying monsters and collecting treasures.”
Soon afterwards, Xu Fan also thought of Ye Xiaoyao’s Sword-Formation
Technique.
“Should I take in a disciple who has a Sword Formation Talent?” Xu Fan said while stroking his chin.
Being an Artifact Refiner himself, he lacked no Treasure Artifacts, and combining that with his own comprehended Sword Dao Divine Ability, it would be easy to mold a monstrous talent in Sword Formation Dao. “This idea is worth experimenting.” Xu Fan said looking at the distant lake.
“Grapes.”
“I’m here” The sound system responded.
“Check if there are any geniuses in the Sect Disciples who are good at Sword Formation Dao.” Xu Fan asked, he remembered that there were Techniques and Divine Abilities related to Sword Formation Dao in the Sect’s Scripture Pavilion.
Of course, he would first look for a disciple from his own sect.
Information about a disciple appeared within Xu Fan’s light curtain.
“Xiang Yun, isn’t he following the Heart Sword Way?” Xu Fan asked in doubt.
At this moment, another light curtain appeared showing Xiang Yun practicing Sword Formation.
Xiang Yun was observed practicing Small Five Elements Sword Formation with a hundred Artifact-level Spirit Swords, the execution of the Sword Formation was as fluid as running water, seemingly like an instinctive movement of the body.
If the Spirit Swords in the formation were not too average, the power of the Sword Formation would have been several times stronger.
“Why didn’t he persist in cultivating the Dao of Sword Formation?” Xu Fan asked curiously.
“The most fundamental reason is that he cannot guarantee to acquire so many Spirit Swords in the future.”
“As the cultivation level increases, the quantity and quality of Spirit Swords required by the Sword Formation continue to increase.”
“That’s why he reluctantly gave up on Sword Formation Dao,” Grapes said.
“Why didn’t you tell me at that time?” Xu Fan asked with a frown.
“At that time Grapes hadn’t been promoted yet and couldn’t handle this level of logical issue.”
“And most importantly, Xiang Yun’s talent in Heart Sword Dao is also not weak.’
“Oh,” Xu Fan nodded his head. In the Sect Competition, Xiang Yun had achieved the sixth place, logically he shouldn’t be considered weak.
“Although Heart Sword Dao isn’t weaker than Sword Formation Dao, but under the effect of Krypton Gold ability, naturally the power of Sword Formation Dao is a little stronger.” “Call Xiang Yun over.” Xu Fan said.
“At your command.”
Xiang Yun, currently at the Sword Dao Peak, cultivating Sword Dao, received the message that the Sect Grand Elder wanted to see him.
“The Grand Elder wants to see me?” Xiang Yun followed Grapes’ instructions to advance while he was thinking about why the Grand Elder wanted to see him.
Xiang Yun gently landed on the Spirit Boat where Xu Fan was situated.
“Greetings to the Great Master,” Xiang Yun greeted.
Xu Fan looked at Xiang Yun with an average appearance in front of him but his manners and demeanor were very generous, and nodded his head.
Not bad, seems like the kind of person who could survive until the end.
“I’ve said that I would create divine abilities suitable for the top ten candidates in the sect competition.”
“l have two divine abilities here, one is the Heart Sword Dao’s divine ability, Condensing God Into One Sword.”
As Xu Fan spoke, he formed his fingers into a sword, stabbing toward the sky. A dazzling sword light pierced the white clouds thousands of meters high in the sky.
Seeing the sword Xu Fan thrust, Xiang Yun’s eyes were filled with inspiration. This sword was precisely what he was currently pursuing.
“l have another divine ability here. Would you like to see it?” Xu Fan asked with a smile.
“Please demonstrate, Great Master.” Xiang Yun bowed again.
“This divine ability is called Great Five Elements Star Extermination Sword Formation.”
Xu Fan waved his hand, and heaven and earth spun.
Xiang Yun found himself in a Sword Storage Pond, and countless spirit swords wheeled in the sky above him, eventually forming a mysterious sword array.
Under this sword array, Xiang Yun felt countless killing sword arrays composed of the Five Elements.
Inside the sword array were endless variations: the wildness of fire, the gentleness of water, the vitality of wood, the heaviness of earth, and the sharpness of gold.
The sword array continued to change, merging two attributes such as fire and water, water and wood’s murderous vitality, gold and fire’s ….. ….
As the sword array changed, three attributes began to merge, followed by four attributes.
Finally, the Five Elements survived as one into Chaos Stars.
After the sword array was complete, Xiang Yun awoke from the illusion.
“Xiang Yun, which one do you choose?” Xu Fan asked.
Xiang Yun swallowed, saying with a bitter expression: “Great Master, 1 choose the first.’
“The first one? But I saw a different answer in your eyes,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“Given the vast amount of Spirit Stones required by the Sword Formation Dao, I can’t afford to buy thousands of Spirit Swords at the speed I earn Spirit Stones,” Xiang Yun replied.
“You’re still young, with countless possibilities in your future. If you like it, why not take a gamble?” Xu Fan continued to ask.
“l don’t want to gamble on such an illusory future. Now I’m practicing the Heart Sword Dao that can fulfill my wishes.”
Hearing Xiang Yun’s words, Xu Fan was very pleased. This disciple was very similar to himself, self-aware, cautious, and not whimsical.
“Are there no regrets in your heart?”
“Although my heart has regrets, I know which path is the right one.” Xiang Yun lowered his head and replied.
“Very good, it’s rare to see a disciple as cautious as you.”
“Are you cultivating your Dao of Sword Formation now?” Xu Fan asked.
“l will cultivate it as a supplement when I am free,” Xiang Yun responded.
At this moment, Xu Fan looked towards Hidden Spirit Island in the distance and slowly said, “Now our sect has 2,200 disciples.”
“Each of you was handpicked by me and recruited into the sect after passing my test.”
“These disciples are neither too many nor too few for our Hidden Spirit Sect.”
“Because there are fewer of them, I can take care of every disciple in the sect.”
“Your reluctance to practice the Dao of Sword Formation because you’re afraid you won’t be able to get so many Spirit Swords in the future.”
“Silly boy, when you were a low-level practitioner, you probably didn’t realize that what we need least in our sect is Spirit Stone Magic Treasures. Those Spirit Swords you care about are nothing but fluff to me.”
“If you decide to switch to the Dao of Sword Formation from now on, leave the matters of Spirit Swords to me.”
“If you can control a thousand Spirit Swords, 1 will give you a thousand. If you can control ten thousand Spirit Swords, I will give you ten thousand.”
“By the time you reach the Void Cultivation stage and can control the Dao
Artifact Spirit Swords, I will give you Dao Artifact Spirit Swords. By the time you cross the tribulation to the Mahayana period and can control Immortal Artifact Spirit Swords, I will give you Immortal Artifact Spirit Swords.”
“For our Hidden Spirit Sect, providing mere Spirit Swords is not a problem.” Xu Fan said proudly, adding a Spirit Sword Production Line to the Puppet Production Line is a simple matter.
With tears in his eyes, Xiang Yun knelt before Xu Fan, saying, “Master, I will remember your kindness of granting me the Spirit Swords in this life.” Before Xiang Yun could kneel, he was lifted up by a gentle force.
“Get up. We in the Hidden Spirit Sect don’t have the custom of kneeling.” said
Xu Fan.
“Well, I’ve engraved the Great Five Elements Star Extermination Sword Formation in your mind. With your aptitude, you should be able to comprehend it before it disperses.”
“As for the Spirit Sword, you can pick it up at the treasury in half a month.”
While Xu Fan was talking, he had already asked Pu Tao to start setting up a production line for Five Elements Spirit Swords. With the resources currently available to the sect, it would only take half a month to produce a thousand second-tier treasure five-element spirit swords.
According to Pu Tao, even setting up a fifth-tier Treasure Artifact Spirit Sword production line would not take much time.
Of course, the Spirit Swords produced are all of good quality and cannot reach the standard of fine-quality Spirit Swords made by a Refining Grandmaster.
For the sword array, good quality is enough.
“Thank you, Great Master. From now
“Alright, no need to make a statement. You’re all good kids, just remember to have the sect in your hearts..”
