Chapter 4 Removing the Turnip and Preserving the Essence
Inside the Water Sword Tomb, Ye Feng didn't know that the outside world had already made a fuss because of his affairs, and the plants and trees were all soldiers.
He was immersed in cultivation, and he seemed to have fallen into an extremely magical realm. His thoughts and vitality were completely integrated, and there were no more distracting thoughts in his heart.
After three months of penance, the blue crystal suspended above Ye Feng's head finally became the size of a fist.
The blue light on the surface of the crystal, which is getting smaller and smaller, gradually dissipates, and gradually reveals its original appearance.
Just as Ye Feng guessed, the blue crystal was just the original camouflage of this object. In fact, the original appearance of this crystal is a silvery-white bead.
The beads are the size of a pigeon's egg, smooth and smooth, with a faint white glow on the surface.
It was this white light that played the role of absorbing the aura of the sword. Holding the beads in the palm of his hand, Ye Feng felt that the several long swords he was wearing were also attracted by the beads, and he was constantly losing the aura of the sword.
When the crystal revealed its body, Ye Feng's strength finally made a new progress.
Originally, as a fifth-level sword master, his strength once again made a qualitative leap.
Now, his strength has been stabilized at the realm of a seventh-level sword master. Every move he makes, he will release the steady and heavy aura unique to a mature swordsman.
Finding that the beads turned into crystals could no longer provide him with energy, Ye Feng temporarily stopped cultivating.
The moment he got up, his clothes were torn, and then he suddenly realized that after three months of motionlessness, his clothes had been corroded by dust.
Reflecting through the smooth stone wall, looking at the slightly dirty body and face, Ye Feng shook his head with a wry smile.
He remembered that there was a spring in the sword mound, and it was indeed wonderful to be able to rinse his body with the spring water at this time.
The icy spring water hit his skin, causing Ye Feng to rise with a surge of happiness from the bottom of his heart.
Immersed his entire body and head under water, Ye Feng quietly enjoyed the peace of being isolated from the world.
He held his breath underwater for nearly a quarter of an hour before he stood up.
The moment he got up, he regained his uninhibited momentum in the past, and his whole body exuded a strange charm.
The strength of a seventh-level sword master alone was not enough for him to fight Chen Keyi, let alone enable him to easily cut off Chen Keyi's head.
After a slight rest, Ye Feng slowly walked in the direction of the sword room, and his eyes once again burst out with Dao essence light.
With his current realm at the fifth layer of the Heaven Devouring Decision, if he wanted to go further, it would be impossible for him to advance without absorbing a thousand row-level low-level swords.
Moreover, with the restriction of the Five Elements of the Heaven Devouring Decision, the thousand swords he absorbed must also be evenly distributed according to the Five Elements attributes. And this made his cultivation journey even more bumpy.
Under his absorption of the first two times, there were less than five hundred swords left in the sword room, and this was the remaining sword, the water attribute swords accounted for the majority, if it had to be divided according to the five element attributes, at most three hundred and fifty swords, it would be thankful.
After entering the sword room, Ye Feng carefully classified the swords in the sword room. In the end, he calculated that according to the five element attributes, there were only three hundred and twenty-five swords in the sword room that could be absorbed, that is, there were only sixty-five groups.
After transporting the sixty-five sets of swords to the cave outside the sword room, Ye Feng inserted the swords into the ground in order.
With everything ready, he placed the white bead in the center of the sword array.
When the beads were properly placed, a white light bloomed from the inside of the beads, and it slowly rose into the air while holding the beads.
When the bead is suspended in mid-air, it releases a faint suction.
Compared to the suction released by Ye Feng using the Heaven Swallowing Decision, the suction released by the beads was much softer.
But even so, the speed at which the bead absorbed the aura of the sword was no slower than Ye Feng's Heaven Devouring Decision.
Ye Feng observed carefully and was shocked to find that the speed at which this bead absorbed the aura of the sword was several times faster than that of the Heaven Devouring Decision.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and a layer of blue crystals condensed on the surface of the beads again, and the volume changed from the size of a pigeon's egg to the size of an adult's fist.
Finding that the beads could automatically absorb the aura of the sword, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel excited.
For him, the value of any treasure is less important than this bead. He believed that as long as he could make good use of this bead, he would definitely be able to shine in the Yin Shang Kingdom and even the entire Tian Yuan Continent in the future.
The bead does not have a name for the time being, which is absolutely unacceptable to Ye Feng.
After pondering for a while, Ye Feng decided to call this bead a heart bead.
The heart is the foundation of a person's life, and Ye Feng named it after the heart bead, which is enough to prove how important this bead is in his heart.
Taking advantage of the gap when the heart bead absorbed the aura of the sword on its own, Ye Feng began to ponder the sword moves he had learned.
So far, in addition to the exercises such as the Qi Induction Technique that all the disciples of the Inner Court of the Lishui Sword Sect will practice, Ye Feng has also mastered the Three Absolute Sword Moves, the Three Flower Sword, the Punishment Sword Technique, and so on, which are mixed and refined.
In the past, Ye Feng always believed that the more exercises he mastered, the better, and only in this way could he take advantage of the exercises when fighting against the enemy.
But since he was promoted to the realm of sword masters, Ye Feng has a new understanding of sword moves.
For high-level sword cultivation, the most important thing is the internal strength and heart method, followed by the footwork, as for the sword moves, with the support of strong vitality, even if it is only with a fast sword like He Huan, I am afraid that many people will be difficult to resist.
After identifying the vanity of the sword moves, Ye Feng decided to abandon some swordsmanship.
The Sanhua Sword Technique was one of the first swordsmanship he thought of giving up cultivation, and he knew very well that with his current realm, the enemies he faced would be extremely powerful, and the Sanhua Sword Technique would no longer have any effect.
In addition to the three-flower sword technique, Ye Feng also planned to abandon the electric light step. However, until he got a new footwork, he still had to continue to use the electric light step.
After careful consideration for a long time, in the end, Ye Feng decided to specialize in the Punishment Sword Technique and the Three Absolute Sword Moves.
As the highest and most profound master in the Lishui Sword Sect, the sword technique is by no means simple.
Ye Feng knew very well that in the past, his strength was not good, and he could only exert one-tenth of the power of the swordsmanship. However, now it is different, as the vitality in his body becomes thick and condensed, he should already be able to cultivate the advanced chapter of the Sword Technique.
The low-level chapter of the Sword Technique pays attention to the effect of light and shadow and the power, but in the high-level chapter, the content told is completely opposite to the low-level chapter.
Lan Yunting added a piece of experience to the advanced chapter of the swordsmanship, saying that the real swordsmanship is not how earth-shattering it is when it starts, but in the light wind and clouds, it has endless power, like a surging river.
Seeing Lan Yunting's depiction of his own cultivation experience, Ye Feng felt that his mouth suddenly opened.
All along, he felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the sword technique he cultivated, but he never expected that it was because of the sword moves.
Seeing that Lan Yunting depicted in the exercises, the real master was no different from ordinary people when he didn't make a move, but when he made a move, he immediately burst out with a huge momentum like a big river and towering mountains, Ye Feng realized that the most profound sword skill in the world is that he has a sword in his hand, but no sword in his heart.
Ye Feng wielded the Five Dragons Xiangtian Sword and slowly changed his posture in the cave.
When he first changed his attack, his steps were particularly clumsy, and his sword moves were extremely soft.
But after three consecutive days of sleepless cultivation, his steps and sword posture became smoother.
Slowly dancing the long sword, his whole person seemed to be fused with the long sword. Often before the thought arrives, the sword blade has already reached the low point of the attack first.
In addition to the smooth sword moves, Ye Feng also had a mysterious feeling in his heart.
As his body fused with the sword, he suddenly felt as if he could read the sword's thoughts.
Cold weapons have thoughts, which is definitely a very ridiculous thing. But such a ridiculous thing made Ye Feng obsessed with it, and he couldn't extricate himself from it.
When he danced the Five Dragons Soaring Heavenly Sword, he could feel the arrogance and arrogance of the dragon's aura lurking inside the long sword.
He could even feel that the dragon-like aura in the Five Dragons Xiangtian Sword was very dissatisfied with the level of the sword body itself.
The aura of the sword was unexpectedly dissatisfied with the sword body, which made Ye Feng feel very puzzled.
Silently stroking the hilt of the sword, he somewhat understood the source of the dissatisfaction with the aura of the sword inside the sword.
It wasn't real dissatisfaction, but the sword aura inside the Five Dragons Xiangtian Sword was too strong, and it had reached the point where the sword body could not bear it.
"Could it be that after using the rank sword for a period of time, it can be automatically upgraded?" Ye Feng guessed uncertainly.
Even he himself was speechless for this bold speculation.
In history, there seemed to be no special case of the long sword upgrade in the entire Tian Yuan Continent, and Ye Feng didn't know what the world would think of him if he told his guess. In his estimation, everyone would think of him as a hopeless madman.
Thinking that the rank sword could be upgraded, Ye Feng couldn't help but sit cross-legged on the ground, pondering the feasibility of this bold idea.
Just as his whole being was deeply immersed in this possibility, the pendant on his chest bloomed with a pale purple glow.
The brilliance quietly penetrated the periphery of the pendant, slowly condensing into a white image in the void.
Staring at Ye Feng, who was bowing his head and contemplating, Xiao Bai smiled approvingly.
He knew what kind of problem Ye Feng was in at the moment, and thought that Ye Feng had discovered the biggest secret of the Tianyuan Continent's sword cultivation realm without anyone to tell him or even to induce him, and he had a deeper understanding of Ye Feng's intelligence in his heart.
"Why, I can't believe that a rank sword can raise a level?" Xiao Bai staggered to Ye Feng and sat down cross-legged in the void.
Seeing Xiao Bai appear, Ye Feng was slightly stunned, and then his face showed a happy color.
In his mind, Xiao Bai's position is extremely important. Although until now, Xiao Bai still has not been able to accept him as an apprentice, but in Ye Feng's heart, he has long regarded Xiao Bai as a teacher.
"Senior, can it really be that the rank sword can be upgraded independently?" Ye Feng asked nervously.
Xiao Bai nodded, but shook his head quickly.
Rank swords can indeed be upgraded, but they are not upgraded independently, but need to be artificially upgraded.
Looking at the entire Tian Yuan Continent, except for those who were high above the Sword Emperor Stage who knew this secret, only the disciples of the Sword Hall who had cultivated the Spirit Devouring Decision or the Heaven Devouring Decision could learn this secret after their strength improved.
