Create Your Own Sword Technique, One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate!

"Clear Wind Sword Technique, Seven Stars Step, and Sunflower Nine Needles—all of them have been cultivated to perfection."

Inside the library, Qin Yang opened his eyes from his feigned nap, a smile appearing on his face.

Three days had passed since his last breakthrough into the Innate Realm.

In just three days, Qin Yang had used the Enlightenment Space to cultivate all three martial arts techniques he had learned to perfection.

The stages of martial arts cultivation were entry-level, minor accomplishment, major accomplishment, and perfection.

Qin Yang had already cultivated these three martial arts techniques to their highest level.

"Unfortunately, the first floor is full of Basic Martial Arts."

Basic Martial Arts were also known as acquired martial arts.

Above them were Innate Martial Arts and Grandmaster Secret Martial Arts.

Qin Yang had already reached the Innate Realm, yet he had not cultivated a single Innate Martial Art.

If he fought another Innate expert, Qin Yang would inevitably be at a disadvantage.

As the largest library in all of Jianghai City, Jiangdao Martial Arts Library definitely had Innate Martial Arts on its upper floors.

But with Qin Yang's current status, he was not qualified to go up there unless he revealed his Innate cultivation.

"Wait..."

"I have the Enlightenment Space. Could I try creating an Innate Martial Art myself?"

Qin Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Innate Martial Arts and Grandmaster Secret Martial Arts had likewise been created by Martial Arts Masters.

If others could do it, could he, with the Enlightenment Space, not do the same?

However, Martial Arts Masters generally possessed an extremely profound foundation in martial arts.

Qin Yang currently only knew three martial arts techniques, which seemed somewhat insufficient.

"If my foundation isn't enough, I'll just keep learning..."

Qin Yang was very confident about that.

There were so many Basic Martial Arts in the library—enough to elevate his martial arts foundation to an extremely high level.

"First, I'll set a small goal: create an Innate Swordplay technique!"

Qin Yang considered himself a devoted person.

Even after breaking through to the Innate Realm, he still loved sword techniques.

Afterward, Qin Yang stood up and began selecting sword techniques from the shelves.

"Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Technique."

Qin Yang picked up a manual and quickly flipped through it.

After breaking through to the Innate Realm, Qin Yang's soul power had greatly improved. With the Enlightenment Space as well, he could now achieve perfect recall after a single glance.

He merely skimmed through the manual once, yet every word within had been deeply imprinted in his mind.

"Hey, kid, you're not sleeping anymore? You're reading again?"

Just as Qin Yang was concentrating on the book, Xia He appeared behind him.

Over the past few days, Qin Yang had spent each day immersing his consciousness in the Enlightenment Space to comprehend martial arts.

Xia He had assumed Qin Yang was just like him, lounging around and dozing off every day, and had felt greatly relieved.

This kid has finally come to his senses.

That's more like it. Everyone's lying flat, yet you're over here competing like crazy.

That's just unacceptable.

But now that he saw Qin Yang reading again, Xia He immediately felt displeased.

You little brat, are you secretly competing again?

What's so interesting about these crappy books?

We're all trash. Wouldn't it be better to lie flat honestly?

Qin Yang had no time to care about Xia He's thoughts.

After memorizing the contents of the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Technique, he returned to his seat, closed his eyes, and sank his mind into the Enlightenment Space.

"That's right, just like that. Sleeping is all you need to do."

Seeing that Qin Yang was so receptive to advice, Xia He nodded in satisfaction.

Then he returned to Area 2 and went back to sleeping in without a shred of guilt.

In Qin Yang's view, the simplest way to create a martial art was to improve upon these Basic Martial Arts, discard their flaws, merge their essences, and ultimately obtain an exquisite Innate Martial Art.

Under the effects of the Enlightenment Space, Qin Yang's comprehension had reached a heaven-defying level.

As the contents of the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Technique surfaced in his mind, all kinds of insights into the technique rapidly emerged in his thoughts as if inspired by divine strokes.

He greedily absorbed those insights, and his proficiency in the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Technique immediately began to rise rapidly.

Entry-level.

Minor accomplishment.

Major accomplishment.

Perfection!

In just one day, Qin Yang had cultivated the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Technique to perfection.

However, that alone was still not enough to help Qin Yang create an Innate Martial Art.

Qin Yang's idea was that since he was going to create a sword technique, he should create one of astonishing power.

He planned to learn nearly all the sword techniques on the first floor of the library before making his move once he was fully prepared.

And so, over the following days, Qin Yang did exactly as Xia He had hoped.

Every day, he stayed in the library and dozed off, while in truth comprehending all manner of sword techniques in his mind.

Qin Yang not only learned every sword technique in Area 1 and Area 2.

He also found excuses to visit the other areas and memorized every sword technique manual there.

In less than half a month, Qin Yang had learned more than ten Basic Sword Techniques and cultivated all of them to perfection.

By now, he possessed an extremely profound foundation in the Sword Dao. He could rightfully be called one of the Sword Dao Masters.

Late at night, in the outskirts of Jianghai City.

"More or less enough."

Having learned so many Basic Sword Techniques, Qin Yang finally stopped.

Next, he would use the heaven-defying comprehension granted by the Enlightenment Space.

He would remove the flaws from the more than ten sword techniques in his mind and take their essence.

In the end, he would fuse them into a powerful Innate Swordplay technique.

Creating an Innate Martial Art would inevitably produce unusual phenomena.

That was why he had deliberately come to the outskirts. He did not want to be disturbed.

Looking at the silent night scenery around him, Qin Yang closed his eyes. More than ten sword techniques flashed through his mind one by one.

Qin Yang's brain operated at high speed, like an incredibly advanced machine.

As Qin Yang continued comprehending, a faint glow emerged from his body, attracting countless mosquitoes and insects.

Yet the moment those insects came within ten meters of Qin Yang, they seemed to suffer a heavy blow and were all reduced to powder, vanishing into the air.

If a Dao expert had been present, they would have clearly sensed an invisible sword radiance enveloping Qin Yang, like a domain of sword qi.

The air seemed to carry the clear ringing hum of swords.

And so, Qin Yang stood motionless where he was.

Only when dawn was about to break did he suddenly open his eyes, sword radiance seeming to flicker within them.

"I finally succeeded!"

With a thought, Qin Yang's true essence rapidly surged, and a sword qi blade condensed from true essence appeared in his palm.

As Qin Yang continuously poured true essence into it, the sword qi grew longer and longer, rapidly transforming into a ten-meter-long sword light.

Feeling the sharp sword qi contained within the sword light, Qin Yang's face filled with excitement as he looked toward a mountain peak before him.

"This move shall be called... One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate!"

As Qin Yang's words fell, the sword qi in his hand suddenly shot forth, transforming in midair into a hundred-meter-long blade of sword qi that slashed directly toward the mountain peak ahead.
