The Xuanling Continent cultivates spiritual power, and the mainstream of cultivation is naturally spiritual cultivation, which has several branches: alchemists, weapon makers, talisman makers, array makers, beast tamers, and sword makers who combine their swords with spiritual energy.
There are three thousand great paths, and no matter which one you choose, you need to master the mental techniques and formulas. These are all in the hands of the major sects and aristocratic families.
The most famous is the Taiyi Sect, which has always held the title of the number one sect without any controversy. It also occupies the seven spiritual veins with the most abundant spiritual energy in the thirty-six states.
The Taiyi Sect has seven peaks. Xiao Lingchuan was once the eldest disciple of the Cloud Peak Master and the top disciple of the Taiyi Sect. He was a prodigy, unparalleled in his time.
He began cultivating at the age of five, and reached the Qi primordial stage at fifteen. It took him a full ten years to temper his body. This may seem ordinary, but it was because he cultivated the sword path and deliberately suppressed his cultivation to solidify his foundation.
After he began to cultivate Qi, he no longer suppressed it, and his cultivation level rose rapidly. He broke through in battles many times. He was only thirty-five years old this year, but he had already reached the Grandmaster level.
Such a genius, if he hadn't gone astray, would have been destined for ascension. But he did. First, he bullied his fellow disciples, then he killed others in the secret realm to seize treasures, and later he ambushed and seriously injured his master. He refused to submit to the law and went even further, stealing the sect's sacred artifacts.
All of this was because after him, the sect produced another genius, a spiritual cultivation genius no less than him, who even became a sixth-grade spiritual alchemist through self-study.
He was jealous of his junior brother, but he was defeated by him in the sect competition and lost his position as the top disciple. His inner demons grew, and he began to go completely astray.
This is what the world believes, but from the original body's memories and the timeline that Di Xiu and 001 obtained, there are significant differences.
Moreover, there are three perspectives and three stories.
Regardless of which path one cultivates, a steadfast Dao heart is required. Spirit sword masters train in the coldest and hottest winters and the hottest summers. To achieve unity of spirit and sword, one must endure hardships that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Xiao Lingchuan has had a clear sword heart since childhood. How could he damage his Dao heart because of jealousy?
If we're really going to be serious about jealousy, then it should be others who are jealous of him.
This world is derived from a novel called "Sword Dao Supreme," whose protagonist is Xiao Lingchuan. The junior brother was originally a loser from the 21st century named Li Chen, who accidentally died from electrocution while playing on his phone in the shower and transmigrated into the body of an extra named Li Chen.
Li Chen was originally a prince of a country on the Xuanling Continent. He wanted to join the Taiyi Sect, but his aptitude was not good enough, and he was rejected in the novel.
After Li Chen replaced Li Chen, he held the script in his hand and naturally wouldn't be content to play a supporting role. Especially since he was bound to a system that sounded incredibly powerful (and even sinister) when he transmigrated, called the "Plundering Golden Finger System." The golden finger included abilities such as luck, innate talent, comprehension, cultivation, as well as alchemy and weapon crafting.
The most direct method is to kill and plunder, but against someone like Xiao Lingchuan who possesses great fortune, Li Chen cannot kill him directly and may even suffer a backlash. Therefore, he needs to suppress him and absorb his fortune first.
This is the source of Xiao Lingchuan's tragedy, and also the tragedy of some geniuses on the Xuanling Continent today, such as the young master of Yaoxian Valley who died a year ago.
This is the truth as seen from the world line, that is, from God's perspective.
From Xiao Lingchuan's perspective, both Di Xiu and 001 felt the effects of a heart attack.
He grew up in the Taiyi Sect and became a disciple of Venerable Yuqing from a young age. When he attained enlightenment, he began to be accompanied by the sword.
He seemed born to wield a sword, obsessed with it, which made him less enthusiastic about other people and things. He lacked tact and flexibility in his interactions with others, appearing rather cold.
But because of his high status and great talent, this aloofness became the natural arrogance of a genius, making everyone respect him even more.
Then Li Chen appeared, a person with equally high talent, but he showed a warm and gentle demeanor, giving away pills for free. In contrast, Xiao Lingchuan's arrogance was naturally highlighted.
People's hearts began to stray.
Li Chen didn't confront Xiao Lingchuan directly at first. Instead, he deliberately befriended him, stirring up trouble in the secret realm and then framing or tricking him.
For example, when he was flirting with women in the secret realm, he was seen by the female cultivator's fiancé, who chased after him, and Li Chen fled all the way.
He always seemed to know where Xiao Lingchuan was. While successfully interrupting Xiao Lingchuan's acquisition of the inheritance, he used sweet words to portray himself as a refined gentleman, inciting Xiao Lingchuan to take action for him.
He secretly killed the man, taking the opportunity to plunder his cultivation and fortune. He also "accidentally" caught the eye of the secret realm's master more than Xiao Lingchuan, and thus obtained the inheritance.
Then rumors spread that Ling Chuan had ruthlessly killed others in order to seize the inheritance, and that Heaven could not stand by and watch, so that he would end up with nothing.
Cultivators all possess spiritual consciousness, but Li Chen's system likely has some ability to deceive people. No one notices when he makes a move, which makes him increasingly lawless, and he deliberately chooses the right moment to trick Xiao Lingchuan.
This special treatment is unique to this individual.
Xiao Lingchuan was a bit simple-minded, but not really stupid. He gradually realized something was wrong and broke off his relationship with Li Chen. Somehow, this became evidence of his jealousy of his junior brother.
There were many trivial matters, and he was gradually pulled down from his pedestal, followed by the sect's grand competition.
Winning is winning, and losing is losing. He lost, so he should work harder and be more diligent. What is there to be resentful about?
But when Li Chen came to pull him away, Xiao Lingchuan felt a chilling danger. His natal spirit sword, protecting its master, injured him, thus becoming another piece of evidence against him.
The fact that Venerable Yuqing was ambushed and seriously injured this time was once again the work of Li Chen and that system.
Venerable Yuqing is the strongest person in the world, as well as the most powerful spirit sword master and spirit array master. This time, he broke through in seclusion and gained some understanding of the rules of the Heavenly Dao. He also vaguely sensed that the Heavenly Dao seemed to be obscured by something.
