Immersed in the world of the cultivation method, Chen Lin looked up and found the sky outside was already bright.
"This cultivation method is truly magical, absolutely magical. I wonder what kind of brain Emperor Yunxiao had to create such a technique. It's simply unbelievable!"
Chen Lin clicked his tongue in wonder, completely stunned by the cultivation method created by Emperor Yunxiao.
Compared to this technique, the martial arts skills he inherited from his predecessor's memories were like child's play.
"Let's try to get started first!"
Despite not sleeping all night, Chen Lin was still full of energy.
With a thought, the Deep Blue Sword flew into his hand.
Chen Lin drew his sword, stood up, and began to cultivate according to the secret manual's methods.
"Hoo~"
"Hoo~"
Sword lights continuously flashed from Chen Lin's hands.
The first level of the Divine Firmament Swordplay cultivation method was relatively simple.
It only required the Martial Artist to use a peculiar method of generating force, through precise control of the physical body, to store up a hidden force in advance and infuse it into the sword.
This would result in a single thrust of the sword carrying two forces, thereby achieving double the attack power.
This force had nine revolutions, and with each revolution, an additional force would be added. After nine revolutions, it would be continuous, like waves of the sea, one after another, leaving the enemy unable to defend.
The most important thing was that this swordplay, combined with the extremely fast Instant Step, could infinitely stack attacks, forcefully destroying all of the enemy's means of resistance.
If it were paired with an indestructible sword, it would be invincible.
Chen Lin cultivated for the entire morning but still couldn't manage to attach a hidden force to the sword before thrusting it.
"So difficult. As expected of a Super Grade Cultivation Method, it's not that easy to get started," Chen Lin said, somewhat dejectedly putting away his sword, preparing to try the Instant Step.
"A Lin, are you done cultivating? It's noon, and the food is ready. We've been waiting for you!"
As soon as Chen Lin walked out of the training room, he ran into Song Qiaoyun, who was waiting by the door.
"Okay!"
Seeing this, Chen Lin smiled and followed his mother to eat.
After the family finished lunch in a lively atmosphere, the first guest arrived at Chen Lin's home.
"Chen Lin, how do you like the new house? Are you satisfied?" He Yanjun asked with a smile, holding delicate pastries.
"Satisfied, extremely satisfied. Oh, and I must thank your steward for his help yesterday. Without his intervention, our family would still be busy today!" Chen Lin said with a smile, cupping his fists in thanks.
"Hahaha, that's all small stuff." He Yanjun waved his hand dismissively, then changed the subject. "A Lin, I'm here this time because of the dispute you had with the Duan Family a while ago!"
Chen Lin was taken aback, then asked with a smile, "Oh! Brother He, do you have any suggestions?"
"I don't really have any suggestions. It mainly depends on your attitude. If you're unwilling to settle privately, we need to immediately apply for the Law Enforcement Hall's intervention. It's best to resolve this matter before Duan Hengyuan returns, otherwise, there might be many unforeseen complications!" He Yanjun replied with a serious expression.
"What do you mean by that?" Chen Lin asked He Yanjun with some confusion.
"Because of the surrounding Demonic Beasts, Martial Artists are a relatively valuable asset to humanity. To reduce conflicts among members, most factions, as long as the conflict doesn't involve loss of life, will consider applications to the Law Enforcement Hall where Martial Artists request to reduce their relatives' crimes with Merit Points. Do you understand what I mean?" He Yanjun explained the method by which human factions handled disputes among Martial Artists.
"I see. Then, Brother He, what should I do if I don't want to reconcile?" Chen Lin asked with a serious expression.
He Yanjun looked at Chen Lin's resolute expression of not wanting to reconcile and said with a smile, "If A Lin trusts me, leave this matter to me. Anyway, there are witnesses and testimonies. It's just a matter of informing the Law Enforcement Hall."
"Then thank you, Brother He!" Chen Lin said with a smile, cupping his fists in thanks.
A few days later, Duan Xingze, who was flirting with a maid at home, was forcibly taken away from the Duan Family by Martial Artists from the War God Temple's Law Enforcement Hall who had arrived unannounced. Duan Hengyuan, who had just rushed back to Nanqing City and hadn't even had time to catch his breath, was furious.
Chen Lin was not interested in the happenings within the Duan Family.
His main focus now was on how to master the entire Nine Revolutions Divine Firmament Swordplay technique.
Only by doing so could he begin his journey of adding points.
Zhu Wei's Monster Slaying Squad was still out on a mission, so Chen Lin had been relatively free during this period.
Besides cultivating, Chen Lin would occasionally meet up with Zhang Shan to relax.
One day, as Chen Lin and Zhang Shan were leaving a teahouse in the inner city, they ran into Ding Shiyu, who was wearing a white scholar's dress.
"Ding Shiyu? What is she doing here?" Zhang Shan asked with a look of suspicion.
"Chen... Chen Lin!"
Ding Shiyu also seemed to have just discovered Chen Lin, calling out in disbelief.
Chen Lin had already become famous throughout Nanqing City. 'The youngest member of the War God Temple in history,' 'The Martial Master with unparalleled achievements as a Demon Slayer Envoy,' 'The genius Martial Artist with exceptional talent and comprehension,' and so on, were constantly being spread among the various families in Nanqing City.
As one of the masterminds who had participated in plotting against Chen Lin, Ding Shiyu initially didn't believe the information about Chen Lin, then became suspicious, then stunned, and finally deeply regretful.
She knew very well how deep Chen Lin's feelings for her had been back then. It was no exaggeration to say that if she told him to go east, he wouldn't dare go west.
However, she never expected that an admirer she had decisively abandoned and plotted against for a mere family benefit, a man she thought had only a little talent, was dull, and had no sense of humor, could achieve such great success. It was almost unbelievable, and difficult for her to accept.
It was as if a treasure map she had always looked down on and discarded had suddenly been discovered to hold immense wealth.
The cycle of regret continuously stimulated Ding Shiyu's heart, plunging her into a state of self-denial, and she began to waste away.
However, after a period of internal struggle, Ding Shiyu finally accepted the reality and began to consider how to salvage the relationship she had so casually discarded.
After all, given Chen Lin's current development trend, he would undoubtedly become a powerful figure in the future. If she could secure such a strong individual, she didn't know how much benefit it would bring to her family.
For the sake of her family's interests, Ding Shiyu decided that she would try again.
