Chapter 99 - 99 Funeral Refining Heaven Techniquei
The entire Secret Land was saturated with the Sword Path Rules, as a fierce aura swept through.
Feng Wanli reluctantly protected himself with Immortal Yuan, “This guy, always stirring up trouble.”
Clang…
No sooner had his words fallen than the longswords on the ground began to unsheathe themselves one after another, bringing with them streaks of sword light as they flew towards Li Cheng!
For a moment, a torrent of longswords appeared in the sky above the canyon, all moving according to the Sword Path Rules, flying directly above Li Cheng and whirling in the air.
At the same time, the cliffs on both sides of the canyon seemed to lose their supporting force, as if startled by the Sword Qi, with chunks of rock falling incessantly, and more rocks began to fall, looking as if they were about to collapse.
Li Cheng looked up at the myriad of longswords whirling above, then glanced at the scimitar, only to see it trembling slightly, as if in submission, too scared to even let out a breath.
“Return the Immortal Artifact? Ugly and cowardly.”
Li Cheng did not skimp on his contempt.
“Don’t just stand there watching, with thousands of swords flocking to the sect, this is a great opportunity for you to comprehend swordsmanship!” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s voice rang out.
How many generations of swords from the Sword Sect were buried here, and now they were all awakened by Li Cheng’s Sword Path Rules, causing the scene of thousands of swords flocking to the sect. And this kid was still just watching?
The Immortal Emperor Tianyuan was at a loss for words.
Li Cheng’s heart stirred, and he summoned his own Spirit Sword. Using it as a guide, he unleashed various Laws, beginning his Enlightenment!
The next moment, Li Cheng found himself in the river of Sword Dao, with Sword Path Rules everywhere he looked, and various Laws above him.
“Eh? Enlightenment again? How is it that this kid treats Enlightenment like eating and drinking?”
Inside the Tripod, Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s face was full of disbelief.
He had just casually reminded him to comprehend swordsmanship, and yet he had achieved Enlightenment!
At the Artifact Sect, Li Cheng had wrapped the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod with the Space Law to engage the enemy, and the effect was surprisingly good.
But that was just a very superficial application. If he could integrate the Laws into his attack, the power would surely increase geometrically.
“You’re not leaving yet? This Secret Land will soon be destroyed by Li Cheng,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan reminded Feng Wanli.
No sooner had he spoken than Li Cheng, unconsciously waving his hand, made the Spirit Sword glide over the ground as naturally as an extension of his arm, and instantly, a bottomless Sword scar appeared, as if space itself had been cleaved through.
Feng Wanli was startled and, without hesitation, grabbed the crescent scimitar and turned to fly towards the entrance.
Once out of the Secret Land, Feng Wanli looked at the scimitar in his hand and then at the entrance to the Secret Land, letting out a sigh of relief.
“Uncle Feng, where is my master?” Lei Yuan asked, looking a little anxious, yet gearing up for a possible threat.
Feng Wanli, holding the scimitar and looking relieved, seemed as if… he had just committed murder for treasure?
Feng Wanli glanced at Lei Yuan, “He is comprehending swordsmanship.”
After finishing, Feng Wanli realized something was off, looked at Lei Yuan again, and with a forehead full of sweat, said, “You kid, don’t tell me you thought I laid a hand on your master?”
Lei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as nothing happened, it was fine. But then again, in his eyes, his master’s ‘aura’ was obviously much stronger than Feng Wanli’s. If Feng Wanli had made a move, he would have been the unfortunate one.
Thinking this, Lei Yuan finally relaxed.
How could Lei Yuan’s state escape Feng Wanli’s notice?
Feng Wanli shook his head, speechless, “Really, rest assured, your master is my closest friend, I would rather take a knife to myself than to harm your master.”
Lei Yuan cracked a smile and said no more.
If Li Cheng heard this, he would probably be all too ready to scorn Feng Wanli yet again, daring to speak of bosom friends?
In the Secret Land, the sky full of longswords began to shatter, starting with a few and gradually more and more swords broke apart into fine powder.
The powder dispersed without raising any dust, eerily clinging to Li Cheng’s Spirit Sword.
Gradually, the Spirit Sword in Li Cheng’s hand, originally two fingers long, had grown to several meters, resembling a staff.
What was even more bizarre was that the Sword Path Rules permeating the Secret Land also poured into the staff, as if to cleanse it, and ultimately merged into Li Cheng’s body.
After a while, the longswords within the Secret Land had all disappeared, and that staff had reached forty meters in length!
At this moment, the Secret Land was riddled with pitch-black spatial fissures that seemed on the verge of collapsing.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan stroked his chin beard, muttering to himself in amazement and uncertainty, “This is the Funeral Refining Heaven Technique of that old fellow Qi Jingshen! Has this boy really received Qi Jingshen’s legacy?”
In the Immortal World, everyone knew that Qi Jingshen’s Artifact Refining Technique was unmatched, yet few knew that Qi Jingshen also mastered a unique secret technique called the Funeral Refining Heaven Technique!
This secret technique was, simply put, refining artifacts with artifacts, just as was currently happening. Millions of longswords were utterly destroyed to create this forty-meter-long staff.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan clicked his tongue in secret, for he knew that Qi Jingshen’s technique required seeking out weapons that had been long nourished by cultivators—precisely like those within this Secret Land.
Thus, the resultant weapon would already be imbued with countless Sword Intents, and no one knew what transformation these amassed intents could undergo.
Moreover, he had distinctly sensed that countless Sword Path Rules had nourished the staff.
Just then, Li Cheng slowly opened his eyes, his enlightenment this time having successfully integrated the Space Law into his swordsmanship, and he had unconsciously utilized the Funeral Refining Heaven Technique to great effect!
Glancing at the forty-meter-long staff before him, Li Cheng blew a gentle breath on it, and suddenly, the staff shed its layers like peeling stone skin, leaving only a three-foot-long sword hovering in place.
This longsword still had a point at each end, its entire body snow-white, exuding an extremely restrained aura.
“So white!”
The longsword flew up to Li Cheng of its own accord, circling around him a few times, its joyous emotion thick in the air; whether from delight at its own birth or from Li Cheng’s compliment was anyone’s guess.
Li Cheng lightly flicked the blade, and it trembled slightly; at the tip, a spatial rift was actually torn open!
“This sword has strong spiritual quality and contains the Sword Path Rules, and it has even been tinged with the Space Law; it’s no longer a traditional Immortal Artifact,” commented Immortal Emperor Tianyuan.
“A Rule Immortal Weapon then? It could be considered one, but since it’s tinged with the Space Law, ordinary Rule Immortal Weapons cannot compare,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
“Exactly, the mere fact that it can tear open space without being wielded by someone speaks volumes of its strength,” replied Tian Yuan.
However, Li Cheng shook his head, “It can tear open space here because this is a Secret Land, which is too frail. Outside, it wouldn’t be able to do so on its own.”
“After all, it’s merely been tinged with the aura of the Space Law, not carrying the Law itself.”
Li Cheng had just tried it out; the sword was incapable of carrying the Law. Otherwise, he would have definitely infused it with all the Laws he had mastered.
Speaking of carrying Laws, Li Cheng became even more interested in the three items Ye Chenfeng had given him. Once the conference was over, he would go to check them out first; perhaps he could find other treasures.
“You’ve integrated the Space Law into your swordsmanship, haven’t you? Aren’t you going to test it out?” asked Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan.
Li Cheng nodded, “First, let’s give it a name. It’s white as snow and bears the breath of the Space Law; how about calling it the Void Snow Sword?”
“It’s your sword, why ask me?”
“Hehe, it’s settled then. From now on, you shall be called Void Snow,” Li Cheng declared to the longsword.
The Void Snow Sword trembled slightly, emitting bursts of sword cries, as if in agreement.
Li Cheng stored it in his Dantian and glanced at the ravaged canyon, “This
Secret Land is no longer viable; just the right time to test out my Space Sword
Skill.”
