Chapter 122:Liu Qiyue’s Secret

Translator: CKtalon  Editor: CKtalon

Meng Chuan held the Black Metal Sutra with both hands and carefully observed it. He couldn’t help but be attracted by it. He didn’t stop it, and his consciousness entered the Black Metal Sutra.

Boom!

Meng Chuan saw a woman wearing a loose robe standing in a vast land. She stood with her hands behind her back, seemingly admiring the beautiful scenery.

Following that, she began to execute palm arts, using her palm as a blade. With a casual wave of her palm, there was a magical power that left Meng Chuan infatuated. The palm slashed a rift in the world! The world was like a piece of cloth. This palm sliced open the world, creating a long rift in the void. As her body rose, the void distorted and the rift disappeared. She appeared above the hundred-thousand-foot clouds and struck out with a palm strike! The immense sea of clouds split open like a hundred-thousand-foot chasm.

She used her movement technique, moving in trajectories that couldn’t be discerned at all. She was everywhere.

There were a total of 108 moves.

The final strike caused eighty-one female figures to appear. They simultaneously used a saber art, causing the space—an area over half a hundred kilometers large—to turn pitch-black.

The demonstration engraved itself into Meng Chuan’s mind. It represented the World Roving Dragon Saber Art’s peak strength, as well as the various profundities the saber art contained.

Hu! Hu! Hu! Hu! Hu!

Meng Chuan suddenly left the vast land. He found himself holding the Black Metal Sutra, feeling extremely shocked.

That was the World Roving Dragon Saber. It’s actually so terrifying. Meng Chuan was stunned. As expected from one of the human race’s strongest techniques. It was on par with the Heart Intent Saber Art and the Lightning Devastator Saber Art! There was indeed something unbelievable about it. This saber art was normally executed with a Willow Leaf Saber, and the senior—who created the saber art—had demonstrated the saber art with her palms.

She pushed the 108 strikes to the limit.

In terms of strength, the World Roving Dragon Saber Art was the weakest of the three swift saber arts, and it could already slice through the void with a single strike.

However, in terms of movement techniques, it was ranked first in the entire human race. When one reached the creator’s realm, they could instantly move dozens of kilometers. What was even more terrifying was that one could form 81 embodiments within 50 kilometers of the original. Each embodiment could be the true body!

At this stage, one was practically invincible. Even if an enemy could produce an attack that spanned fifty kilometers, the attack’s might would be too scattered. It posed no threat to the World Roving Dragon Saber Art’s creator.

“This saber art is actually a set of movement techniques. The saber art is only another form of movement technique utilization.” The Supremacy put down his brush and looked at the fan. He smiled and said, “In the early stages of cultivation, one can transform into a roaming dragon and roam the world. Before becoming a Marquis Godfiend, there are very few techniques that allow one to fly into the sky or swim underground. Most of them have flaws, but this doesn’t have any. Supremacy Roaming Dragon, Ye Hong, is truly impressive. In terms of movement techniques, she is considered the fastest human in history.”

Meng Chuan nodded.

Ye Hong was the creator of the World Roving Dragon Saber.

Meng Chuan placed the Black Metal Sutra on the stone table. These were all treasures of Archean Mountain. Meng Chuan wasn’t allowed to take them away. He could only accept the legacy on the spot.

This is the Heart Intent Saber Art. Meng Chuan picked up the remaining Black Metal Sutra. He felt greater eagerness towards it.

His consciousness sank into the Black Metal Sutra.

Boom.

An old man held an ordinary wood-chopping blade and executed the first stance.

Meng Chuan immediately recognized the old man’s move as the Heart Intent Saber’s core to various moves—Heart Saber Stance! After the first strike, there was a flash of lightning before he retracted his saber.

He followed with a second cleave. As soon as he finished the first strike, Meng Chuan’s mind whirled with awe. He could understand 90% of the first move, but the second move was far more profound. After swinging the wood-chopping blade down, it transformed into a violent bolt of lightning! A thunderous boom sounded from a boulder several hundred feet away, but in reality, it was a result of the blade’s impact.

The old man didn’t move at all. His arm didn’t extend either. His swinging of the wood-chopping blade didn’t produce saber beams, but still, it struck an object hundreds of feet away.

The void is distorted? This produced the changes? It’s clearly hundreds of feet away, but it’s still within reach of the strike? Meng Chuan was shocked.

The elder struck out a third time. The saber turned into a dazzling lightning bolt, thousands of times more dazzling than the sun. Then, he retracted his saber.

Th-this… Meng Chuan failed to comprehend. The might of the saber was even more terrifying. He felt like it was much more terrifying than the second strike, but he didn’t understand how it was more powerful. His present cultivation realm limited his understanding of the move.

The elder struck out a fourth time, and a blurry saber projection appeared dozens of kilometers away. The saber projection split open a huge rift in the void. The elder had clearly executed a saber move, but large spatial rifts appeared several dozen kilometers away.

The elder retracted his saber.

This time, the old man focused for quite some time. He was extremely serious.

Rip!

From afar, a large canyon—dozens of kilometers long—appeared.

What happened? Meng Chuan was extremely shocked. He felt a terrifying strike cleave the ground and formed a large canyon, but the elder didn’t move at all.

The old man then began to use the other Heart Intent Saber stances. The profundity of each move was demonstrated extremely clearly. Only after he was done did he smile and look at Meng Chuan. Large amounts of information surged into Meng Chuan’s consciousness! His consciousness rumbled as he completely accepted the complete Heart Intent Saber Art legacy.

…

He held the Black Metal Sutra with both hands, shocked by the complete legacy.

The Heart intent Saber’s foundation was the Heart Saber Stance, which was why the creator had used the Heart Saber Stance five times. This technique was the most basic and most terrifying move. The Heart Intent Saber’s fifth move was as terrifying as the legends said it was.

“Among the three swift saber arts, the Lightning Devastator Saber is the most dominating. The World Roving Dragon Saber’s movement techniques are invincible, and the Heart Intent Saber’s 18 stances will ultimately transform into the Heart Saber Stance. This is the best saber drawing stance in the world.” The Supremacy’s voice was filled with admiration. “Although Senior Guo Ke couldn’t reach the Creation realm due to his body, he was invincible in his time. The final move he created transcended time. Even time comes to a standstill due to the strike. Without you even realizing it, he would have delivered the strike. Therefore, I’m most impressed by Senior Guo Ke when it comes to the three swift saber arts’ creators.

“For generations of Creation realm experts, everyone admits that Senior Guo Ke’s final strike is the strongest amongst the three swift saber arts.”

Meng Chuan was also shocked.

Senior Guo Ke’s fourth move was about the same level as the World Roving Dragon Saber’s peak strength. The fifth move completely surpassed it! It was a strike that transcended time.

In fact, the third move he had seen—that was extremely dazzling—had already distorted the flow of time. Meng Chuan didn’t understand it at that time. He only understood after obtaining the complete legacy. The fifth move was even more inconceivable.

It’s too exquisite. I took nine years to achieve Saber Soul, but mine is truly crude when compared to Senior Guo Ke’s saber art. I have flaws everywhere. However, Meng Chuan wasn’t discouraged at all. Instead, he was extremely excited. The true value of something could only be determined through comparison. Since he cultivated the same saber art as Senior Guo Ke, he could compare their moves.

He immediately discovered that there were many places he could improve on! Instantly, inspiration filled his mind. He felt like his saber art was in desperate need of an overhaul.

“Every disciple who studies a Black Metal Sutra by themselves will discover their flaws when they obtain the legacy via intent. They will advance by leaps and bounds. Go back. You can ignore everything that happens on Archean Mountain. Just focus on studying the Heart Intent Saber,” instructed the Supremacy.

“Yes, I’ll take my leave first.” Meng Chuan put down the Black Metal Sutra and couldn’t hold back any longer. He had too many ideas to test out.

The Supremacy nodded slightly. He had seen many similar instances.

It was the same every time a disciple obtained a Black Metal Sutra legacy via intent. The only difference was that they took a long time to condense an Essence Soul after they became Great Solar Godfiends before they could obtain the legacy.

In comparison, Meng Chuan had obtained the legacy rather early.

…

Swoosh.

Meng Chuan traveled across the mountain range quickly. As he headed back to his cave abode, his mind was filled with ideas about the Heart Intent Saber.

Soon, he returned to Bright Scenic Peak.

“Lord,” greeted Steward Liu respectfully.

Meng Chuan nodded and headed straight for Liu Qiyue’s chamber.

Inside the chamber, a light-red-robed Liu Qiyue sat in the lotus position. Flames burned over her as they formed a phoenix that had spread its wings behind her. Along with the phenomenon of the rising phoenix, the aura that Liu Qiyue gave off was extremely terrifying. Even the super high temperatures caused the surroundings to distort slightly. However, the high-temperature was completely restrained to a thirty-foot region around her.

Clearly, the Phoenix Divine Body’s terrifying power had been excavated by Liu Qiyue after years of cultivation.

Every single Phoenix Divine Body Godfiend was a genius in the Dao of Fire! They didn’t need to cultivate a Black Metal Sutra because their powerful divine bodies contained “fire.” This was a natural ability. The sooner they raised their strength, the stronger their divine bodies were, and in turn, the more terrifying their phoenix flames would be.

Therefore, Liu Qiyue was cultivating a Heaven-level Godfiend legacy. She had received the legacy through intent and had Marquis Heavenstar teaching her. Archean Mountain also made her enter treasured lands they arranged. After eleven years, Liu Qiyue’s cultivation progress had actually surpassed Meng Chuan’s and Xue Feng’s! Of course, if she cultivated a Black Metal Sutra without intent guidance, her progress would probably be much slower.

This wasn’t suitable for a Phoenix Divine Body expert. Based on historical records, Phoenix Divine Body experts cultivated very smoothly. They easily grasped the Fire Dao. Even so, most of them were unable to cultivate beyond Marquis Godfiends! In history, there were only a handful of Phoenix Divine Body experts that had become Regis Godfiends. As for reaching the Creation realm? There hadn’t been a single one!

The special bloodline brought about many benefits, but there were various restrictions.

“Oh?” Liu Qiyue opened her eyes, and the flames retreated into her body. The phoenix phenomenon also vanished, causing the terrifying might to be restrained.

“Ah Chuan.” When Liu Qiyue saw Meng Chuan enter, she couldn’t help but feel happy. “You’re so excited. You went to see Master today and obtained the legacy?”

“That’s right.” Meng Chuan nodded. “After I obtained the legacy, I realized how far I am from Senior Guo Ke. My saber art still has plenty of room for improvement. I need to cultivate now! From today onwards, as long as the sky doesn’t collapse, help me decline everything. Master has also instructed me that I don’t need to participate in any events on Archean Mountain. I have a feeling that I might not take long to attain Greater Mastery of Saber Soul.”

“Alright.” Liu Qiyue nodded immediately and said in delight, “Then I have to work harder. I’ve been stuck as well. I’ve been unable to attain Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul.”

“Let’s cultivate hard. When the time comes, we’ll head down the mountain together.” Meng Chuan smiled at Qiyue. “Alright, time for me to start cultivating.” He couldn’t hold back anymore.

“Go ahead. I’ll personally cook some dishes you like.” Liu Qiyue smiled as she watched Meng Chuan head for the training grounds.

Liu Qiyue heaved a sigh of relief as well. When Ah Chuan attains Greater Mastery of Saber Soul, I’ll show my Greater Mastery of the Realm of Soul after one or two months.

Yes.

Her cultivation progress was indeed rather fast. After she reached the Realm of Intent at the age of nineteen, she enjoyed smooth progress in anything related to fire. She had reached the Realm of Soul at the age of 25. Just a month ago, she had attained Greater Mastery in the Realm of Soul! She could reach the Great Solar realm at any time! However, she had never publicly announced her progress. Five years after Marquis Heavenstar taught her, he left the mountain and was responsible for guarding a city pass. She deliberately concealed her cultivation progress, and no one had noticed it.

Since she had deliberately concealed her strength and her attainments in a Heaven-level Godfiend legacy, Meng Chuan remained the “strongest” disciple on Archean Mountain. After Meng Chuan, was Yan Chitong. Liu Qiyue was third.

It won’t be long before we leave the mountain. When that happens, Ah Chuan and I can get married. Liu Qiyue’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
