Chapter 374: Chapter 319: Art of 1 Qi into 3 Pure Ones, Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain
"The Fifth Realm..."
Xu Jingtian murmured to himself, looking Xu Qing over for a moment before nodding slightly. "Xu Qing, you have mastered the introductory methods to Shu Mountain’s three greatest Sword Daos and reached Perfect Law Realm Perfection. It is indeed time for you to learn the secrets of the Fifth Realm."
"Please enlighten me, Master."
Xu Qing bowed respectfully.
"Mm."
Xu Jingtian nodded and continued, "The Fifth Realm transcends Laws. Above Laws are Rules, and Rules are born from the myriad Laws."
"If Laws are the framework that constitutes the heavens and the universe, then Rules are the main pillars that support them. Once you grasp the Rules, you will have achieved ’Transcendence.’"
"That is why the Fifth Realm is called the Transcendence Realm."
"Likewise, the Transcendence Realm is divided into three major realms: Physical Transcendence, Soul Transcendence, and Absolute Transcendence. Each major realm is further divided into four minor levels: Initial Entry, Minor Achievement, Great Success, and Perfection."
"Therefore, to step into the Fifth Realm: Transcendence Realm, you must first thoroughly comprehend the three thousand Laws and grasp the true Rules from within them."
"After that, by cleansing your physical body with the Power of Rules and mastering the power of said Rules, you can step into the first major realm of the Fifth Realm: ’Physical Transcendence.’"
"Do you understand?"
Xu Jingtian asked.
"I understand, Master." freewebnσvel.cøm
Xu Qing nodded.
"Good."
Xu Jingtian smiled and nodded. "I will now give you three choices. The first is that I will directly bestow upon you the Tai Chi Sword Dao Method. This is the very magic gate I cultivated to step into the Fifth Realm. I am extremely proficient in the Tai Chi Sword Dao Method and can guide you meticulously."
"Of course, among the many Sword Daos of Shu Mountain, the Tai Chi Sword Dao Method is quite good, but it is far from the strongest. It still falls considerably short of Shu Mountain’s greatest Sword Daos."
"Therefore, the second choice is to continue cultivating the follow-up magic gate to the ’Three Thousand Swords of Shushan’—the ’Three Thousand Sword Dao Techniques.’ The Three Thousand Sword Dao Techniques is one of the three strongest Sword Daos in Shu Mountain."
"Since you have already succeeded in cultivating the ’Three Thousand Swords of Shushan,’ you have a high probability of success in cultivating the ’Three Thousand Sword Dao Techniques’ as well."
"However, I am not proficient in the ’Three Thousand Sword Dao Techniques.’ If you choose to cultivate it, it will be difficult for me to guide you meticulously."
"As for the third choice... this is one I don’t particularly recommend. There is a place in Shu Mountain called the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain. Any peerless genius capable of cultivating Shu Mountain’s three greatest Sword Daos is granted one chance to enter the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain."
"Within the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain, there is a ’Sword Stele.’ This Sword Stele contains a Supreme Sword Dao. If you can comprehend it, you will be able to master a Sword Dao Technique that surpasses Shu Mountain’s three greatest Sword Daos. Even grasping a fraction of it will grant an enormous boost to your Sword Dao cultivation."
"However, going to the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain is extremely dangerous. Setting aside the competition among Shushan Disciples, the Sword Tomb itself contains beings like ’Sword Spirits,’ ’Sword Ghosts,’ and ’Sword Demons.’ They possess terrifying power, and the slightest misstep could lead to your death there."
Xu Qing took a deep breath and asked, "Master, when does the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain open? If I wish to go, how long must I wait?"
"It seems you’ve already made your choice."
Xu Jingtian shook his head and sighed. "The Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain opens once every hundred years. It has been ninety years since it last opened."
"This means the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain will open in another ten years."
"Ten years."
Xu Qing pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly. "I understand."
"So, what is your choice?"
Xu Jingtian asked.
"I wish to go to the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain."
Xu Qing said in a solemn voice.
"So be it."
Xu Jingtian sighed again. "I knew you would choose this. Since you wish to go to the Sword Tomb of Shu Mountain, then go."
"Yes, Master."
Xu Qing bowed.
"I will bestow upon you a Supreme Divine Technique."
SWISH!
Xu Jingtian took out a special purple Jade Scroll and casually handed it to Xu Qing. "This Supreme Divine Technique is unrelated to the Sword Dao, but it will increase your combat strength."
"You must comprehend it well."
"Yes."
Xu Qing replied immediately.
"You may go."
Xu Jingtian waved his hand.
"I will take my leave."
Xu Qing bowed, then turned and departed respectfully.
「In the blink of an eye.」
Xu Qing was back on Chixia Peak.
"Master."
Lan Yun was waiting for Xu Qing’s return. "You’ve returned."
"Mm."
Xu Qing nodded. Without another word, he went straight to his bedroom, sat down cross-legged, and took out the special purple Jade Scroll.
’A Supreme Divine Technique.’
Xu Qing’s expression grew thoughtful. ’If I recall correctly, after I successfully cultivated the Three Thousand Swords of Shushan, I already mastered a Supreme Divine Technique: the Three Thousand Sword Dao.’
’Furthermore, Supreme Divine Techniques are also divided into four grades: Low, Middle, Upper, and Perfect. The ’Three Thousand Sword Dao’ can only be considered a Low Grade Supreme Divine Power Technique, and I’ve only just reached the Entry Level with it.’
’Record.’
At Xu Qing’s thought, his gaze fell upon the purple Jade Scroll in his hand. The Encyclopedia of All Things flashed with an intense radiance, surging with a purple stream of light.
BUZZ! BUZZ!
「The next moment.」
