Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu's expression immediately changed, and he replied in a low voice:
Brother Wang, please speak.
Wang Pojun hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said:
I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Brother Chen for saying this.
My seventh great-uncle suggested that Brother Chen climb Sword Mountain himself to find a flying sword that suited him, but that was actually a petty trick.
Chen Qingyu narrowed his eyes and asked:
Brother Wang, could you please explain in detail?
Wang Pojun sighed and whispered;
Buried atop Sword Mountain are the natal flying swords left behind by all the sword cultivators above the Divine Ability Realm in the Wang Clan over the past 80,000 years.
According to the rules, only clansmen who have reached the appropriate age and cultivation level, and who rank among the top in the Sword Duel Assembly or have made sufficient contributions, can ascend the Sword Mountain.
On Sword Mountain, it's not people picking up flying swords, but flying swords picking up people!
He paused for a moment before continuing:
After ascending Sword Mountain, you need to practice your swordsmanship to attract the spirits of numerous flying swords!
The stronger and more skillful one's swordsmanship, the more powerful the flying swords will be to choose their masters!
Brother Chen, I'm afraid you're not proficient in swordsmanship, which is clearly unfair to you.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu immediately understood.
If we accept Wang Pojun's account, then his seventh great-uncle did indeed play a trick that day.
After all, Chen Qingyu didn't know anything about swordsmanship. Even if he climbed Sword Mountain, he wouldn't be able to take any flying swords with him. He would just have made a wasted trip and make a fool of himself.
This shows that the Wang Clan was not truly a descendant of Saint King; their foundation was rather shallow, and they had a somewhat petty nature.
He promised him a powerful flying sword from the [ Four Divine Treasury Realms ], yet he still tried to outsmart him, wanting to get something for nothing while also saving face.
Brother Chen.
A hint of guilt appeared on Wang Pojun's face:
In this matter, it is my Wang Clan's superiors who have wronged you.
It's alright.
Chen Qingyu shook his head, not particularly concerned.
To gain it is my fortune, to lose it is my fate.
His purpose in coming here to collect debts was secondary; his primary goal was to reach the Summit of Liangshan and sign in.
Of course:
Since the upper echelons of the Wang Clan were trying to outsmart him, he wouldn't hold back.
Although he didn't understand swordsmanship, he happened to possess the sword spirit of a divine sword that reached the Heaven-reaching and the earth and had boundless power within his body.
The scene atop Sword Mountain at that time may not be what the upper echelons of the Wang Clan imagine, and they may not be able to laugh at him.
Oh, right.
Chen Qingyu seemed to have thought of something and casually asked:
Brother Wang, I am rather curious.
I am not skilled in swordsmanship; I have other uses for taking the flying sword. But you are all sword cultivators, and you already have your own natal flying swords. What use would it be for you to climb Sword Mountain?
This was a place that he was quite curious about.
Once a natal flying sword is perfected, it becomes inextricably linked to the sword cultivator's life. What use would an extra flying sword be?
this
Wang Pojun hesitated for a moment, then spoke up to explain:
Brother Chen, you are unaware of something.
If the bloodline and cultivation techniques of the divine weapons and Divine Weapon Mystic Artifact left by our ancestors are compatible, our descendants can also unleash most of their power when they inherit them.
Furthermore, within my Wang Clan, there is a secret technique left behind by the Heavenly Sword Saint King, which can refine the flying swords left by our ancestors into a primordial essence, which can then be used to nurture one's own flying sword.
With such assistance, a natal flying sword will surely make rapid progress, not only greatly increasing combat power but also boosting the sword wielder's cultivation level.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu immediately realized what was happening and said:
So that's how it is.
The paths to enlightenment differ across the various holy lands, but they all generally possess some method for rapidly advancing cultivation and enhancing combat power, which usually only works once.
It seems that refining the flying swords of their ancestors and nurturing their own natal flying sword is the method of the Liangshan Wang Clan.
As far as he knew, the Chen Clan seemed to have a way to quickly absorb the power of the stars in the heavens and boost one's cultivation, but the Ninth Ancestor had never mentioned it to him.
Perhaps my cultivation level is not high enough.
Thinking this, Chen Qingyu spoke again:
Brother Wang, there is one more thing I would like to ask of you.
Upon hearing this, Wang Pojun solemnly replied:
Brother Chen, please speak.
If it is within my power, I, Wang Pojun, will never refuse.
Chen Qingyu smiled and said:
It's not a big deal.
Liangshan is the highest mountain in the world, and I have long yearned to visit it, hoping to witness the magnificent sunrise from its Summit of Liangshan.
I've come to Liangshan, and I wonder if I'll have the chance to fulfill my wish?
Upon hearing this, Wang Pojun laughed heartily:
Oh, it's such a small matter. No problem, no problem.
He patted his chest and assured them:
Don't worry, Brother Chen, climbing Liangshan to watch the sunrise is a piece of cake.
I will come to the Heavenly Sword Pavilion at dawn tomorrow and take Brother Chen to the Summit of Liangshan.
good!
Chen Qingyu laughed loudly:
It's a deal then!
With the most important matter of signing in resolved, Chen Qingyu felt much more relaxed.
After chatting with Wang Pojun for a while, Wang Pojun seemed to receive a message and prepared to take his leave.
Before he left: Meow Meow said
Brother Chen.
He reached into his sleeve and secretly slipped a small, sword-shaped jade slip into Chen Qingyu.
Brother Wang, what are you doing?
Chen Qingyu subconsciously took the jade slip and paused for a moment.
Brother Chen, this contains the essence of swordsmanship and my insights gained from years of study.
Especially after I received the Saint King, my swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds, and some of my insights were also incorporated into it.
Wang Pojun whispered:
With your talent and comprehension, seven days should be enough to understand most of it.
When the time comes, you can practice your sword intent with all your might. Although it may not be enough to attract any powerful flying swords, it will at least attract one or two flying swords at the Divine Ability Realm, so you won't return empty-handed and be laughed at by those petty villains.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu felt a slight warmth in his heart.
Clearly, Wang Pojun didn't want him to embarrass himself, so he secretly helped him, even at the cost of violating some of the Wang Clan's rules.
Brother Wang.
He responded telepathically:
These are all your Wang Clan's secret sword techniques; handing them over to me like this is probably not a good idea, is it?
It's alright.
Wang Pojun transmitted his voice:
This does not contain any specific sword moves or techniques; it is merely my own understanding.
Of course, if it's convenient, please don't spread this around, Brother Chen.
Chen Qingyu smiled slightly, put away the sword-shaped jade slip, and nodded, saying:
Brother, please rest assured.
Wang Pojun nodded, bowed respectfully, and then hurriedly turned and left.
Chen Qingyu withdrew his gaze, immediately got up, found a quiet room, and entered the [ Martial Practice Hall ] of the Supreme Void Dao Realm to hone his spiritual techniques.
Nothing more was said that night.
The next day, in the early hours of the morning.
At this very moment, before dawn, before daybreak, it is the darkest time, and the night hangs heavy over Liangshan.
Brother Chen!
Outside the palace, Wang Pojun's voice rang out:
We should get going!
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
