Chapter 93 - 93 Chaos Yuan Eighteen Swords i
Li Cheng’s face was full of embarrassment. Hearing what Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said, he realized he sat on a mountain of treasures without knowing it.
“I really don’t know how you came to comprehend so many Sword Dao and Fist Path rules. I’m not proficient in the Fist Path, but as for Swordsmanship, 1 can transmit to you one technique,”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said, struggling to suppress the urge to vomit blood in frustration.
“Just one? Not to mention dozens, but at least ten or eight, right?” Li Cheng frowned. This was an Immortal Emperor, after all. He should fleece him completely.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s ethereal figure visibly clenched his teeth in the dark, clearly furious once more.
Such a dignified Immortal Emperor, yet it felt like his state of mind was about to be shattered.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan felt that there must be something wrong with this boy, who seemed earnest on the surface but actually harbored secret techniques that could break through realms.
Taking a deep breath, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan calmed himself, “Fine, 1 spent fifty thousand years understanding a bit of swordsmanship from the Ancient Heavenly Book. If you can learn even a little, it will benefit you greatly.”
Li Cheng stroked his chin. To spend fifty thousand years understanding Swordsmanship, such spirit, such will—truly incomparable to ordinary people! “Have you actually seen the Ancient Heavenly Book, Senior?” Feng Wanli asked excitedly.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan glanced at Feng Wanli, “That happened hundreds of thousands of years ago. Back then, anyone with the power of an Immortal King or higher could attempt to understand it.”
Feng Wanli nodded in understanding, “Li Cheng, the Ancient Heavenly Book is one of the ten great extraordinary books of the Immortal World. Any Cultivation Technique or immortal art understood from it is a renowned existence that shakes the Immortal World. 1 am truly envious of you.”
“The senior hasn’t transmitted it yet. What’s there to be envious about?”
Looking at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, Feng Wanli said, “Senior Tianyuan is most famous for the Tianyuan Nine Techniques, which are said to be earth-shatteringly powerful with any single technique.”
The Tianyuan Nine Techniques?
Swordsmanship?
How vain, naming the sword techniques he comprehended after himself.
“Call me when you find a suitable place,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said, then his figure disappeared.
By this time, Lei Yuan had finished washing and changed into a clean, tidy robe, walking over with a joyous expression and respectfully saluting, “Master, Uncle Feng!”
His handsome face radiated elegance, and his deep black eyes sparkled with an enchanting luster.
Feng Wanli glanced at Lei Yuan, then reached out towards the street outside, capturing two people from afar, “I’ll capture these two and search their souls. Come with me.”
As he spoke, the two men who chased after Lei Yuan were already captured by Feng Wanli and teleported inside the Taoist Mysterious Sect.
Li Cheng wrapped Lei Yuan in True Yuan and followed Feng Wanli to a solitary peak, “This residence of yours is quite simple.”
Atop the solitary peak stood only a wooden hut.
Feng Wanli nodded, “No one will disturb us here. Rest assured and stay here;
1’11 deal with these two first.”
After speaking, Feng Wanli flew toward the center of the sect, carrying the two restrained individuals.
Li Cheng took out the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, “Senior, let’s begin!”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan floated out from the tripod, “The Tianyuan Nine Techniques are what I’m proudest of. But I’ve thought it over, and without a few thousand years of comprehension, you can’t master these techniques. Therefore, I’ll transmit something else to you first.”
“No, come on, just teach me the Tianyuan Nine Techniques. I learn really fast!” Li Cheng hastily said.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan shook his head, “I can transmit other things to you, mainly because you’re a monstrous talent, and also because you’ve cultivated the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture. Forget about the nine techniques!”
“How about we make a bet?” Li Cheng suggested.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan still shook his head, “I am ready to transmit to you the Chaos Yuan Eighteen Swords, each sword stronger than the last. If you don’t want to learn them, then forget it.”
“1’11 learn!”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan smiled. He had been continuously put at a disadvantage by Li Cheng, which infuriated him. But now, he finally had the upper hand.
Without further ado, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan pointed a finger, and the legacy of the Chaos Yuan Eighteen Swords floated towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng infused it into his sea of consciousness and, after some contemplation, looked at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan with slight surprise, “Incredible, Senior has actually created such swordsmanship to complement the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture!”
It seemed that Li Cheng’s praise pleased him, as the smile on Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s face thickened, saying, “That’s right, each level of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture corresponds to one sword!”
Li Cheng nodded, “If that’s the case, 1 can only cultivate up to the Ninth Sword.”
“You should be satisfied, the power of the Ninth Sword will exceed your imagination, but to cultivate the first nine swords to completion, I’m afraid it will take several hundred years, hehe, keep it up!”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s teasing laugh followed as he returned to the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
Li Cheng looked at Lei Yuan and, using his Spiritual Sense, condensed the first nine levels of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture and transmitted them into Lei Yuan’s mind, “This is the cultivation technique your master is passing on to you, go off to the side and contemplate it; if you don’t understand something, ask your master.”
Lei Yuan performed a respectful salute and then ran off to a distant spot, sitting cross-legged to begin his contemplation.
“You actually transmitted the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture to him? Do you know that 1 was forced into the Lower World because of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, and because of it, I died?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan drifted out again, furrowing his brow.
“When passing on skills to a disciple, of course, I pass on the strongest. The Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is so powerful, of course 1 would pass it on!” Li Cheng said.
“I and four disciples are all cultivating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture,” Li Cheng added.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s brow furrowed even deeper and after a long while he said, “If you’re seeking death, I won’t stop you, but starting from the tenth layer, the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is incomplete.”
Li Cheng nodded, “I know. I’ve only completed up to the fifteenth layer, the rest will have to wait until my cultivation is higher before I can continue completing it.”
The fifteenth layer?
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan looked at Li Cheng as if he were looking at an idiot, “The fifteenth layer corresponds to the Immortal Monarch Realm. With your Transcendance Tribulation Stage cultivation, you’ve completed a technique that can only be cultivated by those at the Immortal Monarch level? Am I an idiot?”
Li Cheng did not explain, instead he countered, “You’ve cultivated up to the eighteenth layer, right? Have you completed it?”
“What is so-called completion, is actually using one’s own views and enlightenment to perfect it. I have completed it, but it may not suit you,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said.
Li Cheng nodded, that’s the principle, but it could be used for reference.
“You say you’ve completed up to the fifteenth layer, why don’t you show me? 1’11 help you review it,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan added.
Seeing Li Cheng’s serene expression, speaking earnestly of his completion of the fifteenth layer, for some reason, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan felt his anger rising again.
Especially since he used the word ‘only’ again.
Couldn’t he be a little more honest?
Well then, let’s expose the truth right here and let him know that it’s useless to spout nonsense in front of this emperor!
Without hesitation, Li Cheng nodded slightly, condensed the fifteenth layer of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture with his Spiritual Sense, and handed it to Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.
Having such a powerhouse to help review it, why hesitate over such a favorable opportunity?
“You should first cultivate the Chaos Yuan Eighteen Swords. If you can comprehend the first sword before taking action, it will be much easier to defeat that Tribulation Loose Immortal,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said as he dove back into the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
Li Cheng quickly set up a Formation around him and then sat down cross-legged, “Enlightenment!”
Inside the tripod, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan was just about to examine the portion of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture Li Cheng had given him when suddenly, his brow lifted incredulously as he looked through the Pill Tripod at Li Cheng.
“Unity of Heaven and Man, how has he suddenly entered a state of Enlightenment? Isn’t his luck a bit too good?”
Enlightenment, that’s something elusive and sought after, yet Li Cheng had entered this state in the blink of an eye, how could Immortal Emperor Tianyuan not be astonished?
“It seems he is someone with great destiny. In this emperor’s lifetime, 1 have experienced Enlightenment three times and have already been astounded. I wonder how many times this young man will experience Enlightenment in his life,” he said to himself.
Muttering to himself, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan looked at the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.
Not that he needed to look, but upon doing so, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s eyes gradually widened and he stood frozen in place!
