Chapter 75: Kendo Enlightenment
[Mission]
Listen to Elder Ming's explanation of the way of swordsmanship
Reward: Sword Intent Enhancement
Accept: Yes/No
really!
Looking at the tasks on the panel, Lu Yi was delighted. Just as he thought, there were rewards for listening to the strong people preach. This was the case for the Peak Master and Elder Ming.
In this way, he will have a new channel to improve his sword intent.
Lu Yi happily accepted the task.
Then, Elder Ming began to explain. He did not explain individual kendo techniques or kendo skills, but started from kendo as a whole, using himself as a reference to explain his own understanding of kendo.
Just as different people have different faces, different people have different understandings of swords, and there are always slight differences.
However, all things return to their roots, and even if everyone's sword intent is slightly different, it is ultimately still part of the way of the sword.
The word "Tao" is a bit too far away for Lu Yi and others, no, even for a sword cultivator like Elder Ming who has reached the state of spiritual transformation, it is a method that directly points to the origin, but the sword intent can be traced.
As Elder Ming spoke, Lu Yi's eyes became brighter and brighter. He already had a solid foundation in swordsmanship, so it was natural for him to gain insights easily.
However, the other disciples were troubled.
They were confused as they listened, scratching their heads. Some tried hard to listen, while others had already given up.
If Elder Ming hadn't said not to make any noise, they would have started talking long ago.
Gradually, the sword art that Elder Ming talked about became more and more profound. Even Lu Yi felt a little strenuous. It sounded mysterious and difficult to understand. He felt a little dizzy for a moment.
He didn't force it, after all, his understanding was there.
Fortunately, Lu Yi was well prepared and quietly accepted the task reward he had received from listening to the sermon by Master Ling Luofeng.
Enlightenment!
At this moment, a ray of light shone in Lu Yi's mind. Lu Yi felt as if his spirit had merged into the void universe, becoming extremely transparent. He even had a feeling of standing high up and overlooking everything.
The sword art that Elder Ming talked about no longer sounded profound to him. His brain was boiling with all kinds of thoughts flowing through his mind. He combined what Elder Ming said with his own sword intent, and his originally half-finished sword intent was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lu Yi sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. Sharp sword intent flowed from his body, and that sword intent quickly became powerful and vigorous.
All the disciples in the library looked over with their eyes wide open, their hearts filled with astonishment.
Even Elder Ming paused for a moment and looked at Lu Yi in shock: "Is this... an epiphany?!"
Elder Ming was knowledgeable and experienced, so he naturally saw through Lu Yi's condition. That was why he was even more shocked.
That was the legendary epiphany! Even a true genius might not encounter it once in his entire life, and yet Lu Yi was only at the Qi training stage, and he actually had an epiphany? !
What kind of little monster is this?
However, when he thought that this little monster had gained enlightenment by listening to his preaching, Elder Ming actually felt proud for a moment.
He saw that Lu Yi's sword intent was fluctuating and he seemed to be coming out of the state of enlightenment, so he quickly came back to his senses and continued preaching, fearing that he would break Lu Yi's enlightenment.
This is an unimaginable opportunity.
Elder Ming glanced at the shocked disciples, and with his surging spiritual consciousness flowing, he transmitted a message to everyone: "No one is allowed to make a sound! Otherwise, it will be treated as a serious crime against the sect!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples who were originally in shock and wanted to communicate shut their mouths.
But even if they close their mouths, they can still communicate.
The disciples roared wildly in the voice transmission room.
"Epiphany! This is the legendary epiphany!! Holy shit, holy shit!"
"Excuse me, Junior Brother Lu Yi is simply a freak!"
"Indeed, he is only at the Qi training stage! He actually had an epiphany! This is so enviable."
"Don't say you envy me, I'm even jealous!"
"Can you feel the sword intent from Junior Brother Lu Yi? Even though I have reached the peak of foundation building, I still feel a little cold."
"I have the same feeling. Junior Brother Lu Yi's sword power can actually threaten me?! There is a whole realm difference between us!"
"Back then, Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang didn't have such a terrible performance when she was in the Qi training stage, right?"
“Hiss… So Junior Brother Lu even has a chance to surpass Senior Sister Liu Ningshuang?!”
Many disciples looked at each other with mixed feelings as they looked at Lu Yi, who was surrounded by sword intent.
As time passed, Elder Ming was still explaining the way of the sword, and the sword intent on Lu Yi's body became stronger and stronger. The sharp sword intent formed into a series of translucent small swords, which flowed around Lu Yi's body continuously.
The disciples around Lu Yi were unable to withstand the powerful sword intent and retreated one after another. They stood in the distance and looked at Lu Yi in shock.
Elder Ming was also extremely shocked as he spoke. He had seen with his own eyes that Lu Yi's sword intent had increased several times.
Tsk tsk tsk!!
Rays of light shot out from afar and stopped above the library.
They were elders with extremely powerful auras, and the lowest among them was at the Nascent Soul stage.
They were all elders of Baiyun Peak. They were alarmed by the powerful sword intent and came to take a look.
When they glanced over, they immediately saw Elder Ming and disciples such as Lu Yi, and a trace of doubt appeared on their faces.
"Is it Master Ming?"
"Is Elder Ming... preaching? Isn't this sword intent emitted by Elder Ming?"
"It's the sword intent emanating from that kid... Wait, what's that kid's condition?!"
"What the hell??? An epiphany???"
The Yuanying elders opened their eyes wide and looked at Lu Yi in shock.
"This soaring sword energy is emitted by this kid? How old is he?"
"Isn't this kid Lu Yi? The guy who ranked first on the Qi Training Trial Ranking?"
"It's him? Incredible, incredible, he actually achieved enlightenment at the Qi training stage, and realized such a powerful sword intent. He is truly extremely talented!"
The elders were also discussing it one after another. Even they were shocked that someone in the Qi training realm could reach this level.
Time passed, and after a long time, Lu Yi's state of enlightenment slowly disappeared. He felt the flow of his sword intent, and his heart was full of surprise. The sword intent had improved a lot! He took a look at his panel status, and the sword intent column had increased to 20%, far exceeding his thunder state of mind!
He could clearly feel how terrifying the sword intent he had at the moment was. Even if he didn't use the ultimate realm of magic, this kind of sword intent would be enough to fight against a high-level foundation-building cultivator, right? Then Lu Yi felt a little regretful. It was a pity that the enlightenment time was a bit short, otherwise he could continue to improve.
This enlightenment is really a good thing. Why not find an opportunity to go to the peak master again and ask her to preach the truth, so as to gain more enlightenment? Then Lu Yi immediately thought of the peak master's bad temper when she woke up. If he really went to ask her every day, she would probably beat him to death.
And having sudden enlightenment every day is a bit too exaggerated. People will think you are a monster.
Lu Yi felt that it would be better for him to be a little more stable.
He glanced at the task that Elder Ming was going to preach. It was not impossible to improve his swordsmanship anyway, so there was no need to be so impulsive.
As the sword intent around Lu Yi slowly dissipated, Elder Ming also stopped preaching and looked at Lu Yi quietly.
Lu Yi slowly opened his eyes at this time, and a sharp sword light shot out from his eyes, like a sharp sword, cutting through the air and piercing Elder Ming.
The sword light slowly dissipated before it even got close to Elder Ming. Elder Ming laughed heartily: "Not bad, not bad. An epiphany raised the sword intent to 20% of the realm. That's pretty good!"
Lu Yi quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Elder Ming, for your teaching. I will remember it in my heart."
Elder Ming waved his hand and said, "I am old now. When I see a talented junior like you, I naturally can't help but teach you. You are more talented than me, and you have the potential to become a great swordsman. You must work hard and not become lazy just because you are talented."
In response to Elder Ming's earnest teachings, Lu Yi nodded repeatedly, feeling warm in his heart. Elder Ming was such a good person. Not only did he explain the way of the sword to him, but he also cared about him so much.
Lu Yi glanced at Elder Ming's increasingly gray hair, thinking that when his cultivation became stronger, he would also help Elder Ming improve.
At this moment, the Nascent Soul cultivators in the sky landed one after another and came in front of Lu Yi and Elder Ming.
"Meet Master Ming."
The elders looked at Master Ming one by one, and then at Lu Yi with strange expressions.
"I didn't expect to see my disciple suddenly realize something today. I'm lucky."
"Lu Yi, Lu Yi, you little fellow are really surprising. You have such a great talent at such a young age."
"Boy Lu, are you interested in coming to Baiyun Peak?" a middle-aged cultivator asked with a smile.
These words silenced the other Nascent Soul cultivators instantly, and they then quietly moved away from him, looking at him as if he were a fool.
Damn it, don't you see who this person is? !
This is the registered disciple of that woman Ling Luofeng!
Are you used to poaching people?! You dare to poach even her people?! Are you not afraid of death?
The middle-aged monk was also a bit speechless for a moment, and then he reacted immediately. His mouth was stiff, he coughed dryly, and said seriously: "Lu boy, I was just joking just now, don't take it seriously."
Lu Yi saw the reactions of several Nascent Soul cultivators and was speechless. It seemed that the majesty of his peak master was even greater than he had imagined.
Just look at the expressions of these Yuanying masters and you will know.
The several Nascent Soul elders were extremely enthusiastic, so Lu Yi naturally responded with a smile and they had a very pleasant conversation.
There were even Nascent Soul elders who asked him to visit their cave for tea when he had time, and Lu Yi naturally agreed.
This is an invitation from the Yuanying Elder. It would certainly be beneficial to communicate more with the Yuanying Elder.
What if the Yuanying Elder gave him some advice? Afterwards, Lu Yi said goodbye to Elder Ming and the Yuanying Elders, left the library, and returned to his own cave.
He first consolidated his own understanding of the sword, and then received the reward for Elder Ming's mission, which improved his sword will again. After that, it was already night, and Lu Yi began to practice normally, striving to reach the limit of the tenth level of Qi training as soon as possible and break through to the eleventh level of Qi training.
Lu Yi thought of what Lingluo Peak Master said before, that he might be able to break through to the eleventh level of Qi training faster than Second Senior Sister. He didn't know what Second Senior Sister's expression would be if that was true. Lu Yi had a bit of a bad taste in his heart, and then his expression paused, and he had a bold idea.
He tentatively said to himself: "I want to break through to the eleventh level of Qi training faster than Second Senior Sister."
【Task】
Breakthrough to the eleventh level of Qi training faster than Donggong Mingyue
Rewards: Foundation-building technique "Thunder Shadow Step", top-grade magic weapon Purple Jade Skirt, 30 drops of Millennium Spirit Milk.
Accept: Yes/No
Lu Yi had a strange look on his face.
Can he really accept the mission? Can he accept two missions after breaking through once? No, three. Lu Yi thought that his mission to become the direct disciple of the peak master was to break through to the eleventh level of Qi training.
This is so wonderful. He can complete three tasks with just one breakthrough. Lu Yi is so happy.
After looking at the reward, Lu Yi's expression looked a little strange again.
The foundation-building technique and the thousand-year-old spiritual milk were nothing special, but the magic weapon was actually a skirt? He was not the kind of person who would wear a skirt! This magic weapon was of no use to him.
So, the magic weapon rewarded by the task is completely random and has no gender distinction? Lu Yi thought, this skirt can be given to the second senior sister when the time comes, maybe she will like it.
Lu Yi accepted the task and then began to practice with peace of mind.
…………
The next morning, Lu Yi was practicing when he heard Bai Yulong's voice coming from outside the door.
"Junior Brother Lu, are you there?"
Lu Yi slowly opened his eyes, walked to the door, and opened the cave door.
Outside the door, Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong were both there.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "Two senior brothers, I was just planning to look for you."
They have not yet completed their sect mission, which must be completed. Otherwise, it will not be counted as completing the sect mission every year, which is a violation of the sect rules.
In addition, Lu Yi and the other two had already discussed reporting the affairs of the Blood Spirit Cult.
Jiang Fan smiled and said, "You did something big right after you returned to the inner sect. We knew you were back and came here on our own."
Bai Yulong also looked at Lu Yi in shock, and said in disbelief: "Junior Brother Lu, you are too amazing! Not only did you invite Elder Ming to preach for you, but you even had an epiphany while he was preaching!"
Lu Yi was stunned and asked strangely: "You all know?"
"It has spread throughout the entire inner sect, who wouldn't know about this?" Bai Yulong said with a smile.
Lu Yi felt helpless, he just wanted to improve his sword skills, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion. Is it so difficult to keep a low profile?
Lu Yi was a little desperate. He shook his head and said, "This is also luck. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the Affairs Hall."
Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong nodded.
The three of them left Lingluo Peak and came to the Affairs Hall. On the way, Lu Yi found that the senior brothers and sisters he met were more enthusiastic than before, especially the senior sisters. They kept inviting him to appreciate flowers and drink tea. Each of them smiled sweetly, which made him almost unable to control himself.
Bai Yulong on the side looked at Lu Yi with envy and jealousy, but Jiang Fan had a calm face and didn't have any thoughts.
The three of them came to the mission hall of the Affairs Hall to hand in their tasks.
It happened to be the same senior brother from last time.
After seeing Lu Yi, the senior brother's face was full of smiles: "Is it Junior Brother Lu? I heard that you alarmed the entire sect yesterday!"
Lu Yi smiled helplessly and said, "It's too exaggerated."
"Hahaha, who made you so talented?" The middle-aged brother smiled and then asked, "Are you here to hand in a mission?"
"Well, the mission has been accomplished." Lu Yi nodded.
"That's fine. You have completed last year's sect mission." The middle-aged brother said with a smile, "Bring your inner sect tokens here and I will reward you with the points."
There are naturally rewards for completing the sect's mission, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people keen on doing the mission.
The largest reward is sect points, which can be exchanged for various resources in the Resource Hall. This is a major channel for inner disciples to obtain resources.
However, killing an evil cultivator at the tenth level of Qi training naturally would not give many points, and Lu Yi did not look down upon these points. To be honest, he was not short of resources.
Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong are similar, otherwise they would not only complete the sect mission once a year.
However, what should be taken still had to be taken. The three of them handed the inner door token to the middle-aged monk, who operated it before handing it back to the three of them.
"Okay, Junior Brother, do you want anything else?" The middle-aged monk smiled.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "There is indeed one thing."
As he spoke, Lu Yi took out the Blood Spirit Sect's token, handed it to the middle-aged cultivator, and said, "The evil cultivator in the capital of Mohe State was a blood puppet of a Blood Spirit Sect foundation-building disciple. The Blood Spirit Sect disciple originally planned to kill us, but was killed by a senior. This is the Blood Spirit Sect disciple's token."
Hearing Lu Yi's words, the middle-aged cultivator's face suddenly became serious. He took the token and looked at it, then slowly said: "Three brothers, wait a moment. I will go and inform the elders. This matter must be left to the elders to decide."
Lu Yi nodded and naturally had no objection.
The middle-aged monk left in a hurry. Not long after, he came back with a man with a grim face.
The man was holding the Blood Spirit Sect token. When he saw Lu Yi, his cold expression softened a bit. He nodded slightly at Lu Yi and then said, "I know about the Blood Spirit Sect disciples. I will inform the Law Enforcement Hall. Recently, the number of Blood Spirit Sect disciples appearing in my Baiyun Sect has increased a bit more than before. You should be more careful when you go out in the future."
Hearing this, Lu Yi and the other two looked at each other, and a hint of worry appeared in their eyes.
As the Blood Spirit Sect and the White Cloud Sect are hostile sects, the intensified friction is not a good thing.
Seeing the three people's concerns, the cold-blooded man said, "This is not a big deal. We, the Baiyun Sect, don't take the Blood Spirit Sect's villains seriously. You have made a contribution this time by killing a Blood Spirit Sect disciple in the Foundation Establishment Realm. The reward will be distributed according to the number of Foundation Establishment Realm disciples killed."
Hearing this, Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong's eyes lit up and they showed a hint of joy.
The points reward for killing foundation-building disciples are quite a lot.
For Lu Yi, it was no big deal.
The cold-blooded man left in a hurry after saying this, probably to inform the Law Enforcement Hall, while the middle-aged senior brother added new rewards to Lu Yi and the other two.
Afterwards, Lu Yi and the other two left the office hall. After saying goodbye, they left.
As for the affairs of the Blood Spirit Sect, the three of them did not discuss it much. After all, the Baiyun Sect and the Blood Spirit Sect were both giants in Qingzhou, and such a clash was not something that small fry like them could control.
Even if the two sects really go to war, the tall ones will be in the front. They are just newbies who are practicing Qi, and have basically nothing to do with them.
After returning to Lingluo Peak, Lu Yi had basically finished dealing with his affairs and could focus on his cultivation.
Because Lu Yi had practiced the Baiyun Sword Technique, Baiyun Footwork and Baiyun Qi-Guiding Technique to the limit, Lu Yi had a lot of free time that could be allocated to other techniques.
The Jade Body Technique, the Forget Dust Technique, the Breath-Containing Technique, the Tiger Bone and Ginseng Soup and the Soul-Nourishing Dew were all improving at a very fast pace.
Lu Yi had previously obtained the true explanation of the basic formation, which contained several basic formations. Lu Yi also spent quite a bit of time practicing them.
During cultivation, time passed quickly and three months went by in a flash.
Inside Lu Yi's cave, Lu Yi sat cross-legged in the training room, with an extremely rich spiritual energy flowing around his body.
For three months, Lu Yi had been practicing with the Millennium Spirit Milk. His practice speed was extremely fast and he successfully reached the peak of the tenth level of Qi training.
After reaching the peak of the tenth level of Qi training, Lu Yi had a strange feeling.
He could clearly feel that there were two paths before him.
One of the ways is to break through the tenth level of Qi training and reach the foundation-building stage.
The other one, however, is so majestic that it makes people feel fearful and unable to see the road ahead clearly.
Lu Yi understood that this was the restriction of the way of heaven and the majesty of the way of heaven.
To break this bottleneck is to reach the eleventh level of Qi training.
Thanks to Haotian Riyue for the 3500 points, 08a for the 2100 points, Dongyao No.1 for the 1500 points, His Highness Tianyi's guard for the 1500 points, Steamed Pigeon for the 300 points, Juice Grilled Fish for the 100 points, Mujiangyi for the 100 points~ (End of this chapter)
