Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1551 - 1547: Sword Technique

Zhang Ji Yuan frowned: "Seed Jade Evil Scripture..."

Ning Dongge said: "Is there an Evil Cultivator causing trouble on Junior Brother Ding?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "This Seed Jade Evil Scripture rapidly enhances a person’s talents and cultivation through external force, making them a target for body seizing."

"Body seizing?!" Zhang Ji Yuan and Ning Dongge both turned pale.

They quickly showed anger in their eyes.

"Such an evil technique!" Zhang Ji Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "Which Evil Cultivator is it?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "An Undying Evil Venerable from Wanxiang Cliff."

Ning Dongge frowned and said: "Wanxiang Cliff is a top sect in You Meng Heaven, a major sect, and yet it produced such an Undying Evil Venerable."

"Which of these so-called major sects in You Meng Heaven hasn’t produced an Evil Venerable?!" Zhang Ji Yuan snorted: "Appearances are grandiose, but in secret they’re despicable!"

"Brothers, then I..." Ding Shaojun looked worried.

He knew immediately that it was not good.

Though he was a disciple of a small sect, he also knew the name of Evil Venerable and that they should be killed by all.

Having been tainted by an evil technique, he feared he would no longer qualify as a disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Sect.

Zhang Ji Yuan looked at him sympathetically, then turned to Chu Zhiyuan: "Junior Brother, is there a way to undo the evil technique on Junior Brother Ding?"

Ning Dongge slowly nodded.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This Seed Jade Evil Scripture is very sinister, like maggots on a bone. To completely end it, one must abandon cultivation entirely and start anew."

Zhang Ji Yuan said: "There is no other way? Junior Brother, you’re a Spirit Venerable."

Ning Dongge said: "Abandon cultivation, will the body be harmed?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "There will be some severe damages, but our spiritual medicine can compensate for it. It’s just that starting anew is quite troublesome, and we also need to eliminate that Undying Evil Venerable to truly end future troubles."

"That’s good..." Zhang Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let’s just discard the cultivation!"

He turned to Ding Shaojun: "Junior Brother, do you dare to rebuild? You’re still young, re-cultivation will be quick!"

Ding Shaojun hesitated.

Zhang Ji Yuan said: "Junior Brother, what is there to hesitate about?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Brother Zhang, let Junior Brother think carefully. Such an important decision cannot be made rashly."

"What’s there to think about?" Zhang Ji Yuan did not understand.

Since an evil technique is upon you, of course, you must discard it without hesitation.

Ning Dongge said: "Yes, let Junior Brother think about it carefully. After all, such a sudden change requires a buffer of time."

"Alas... Alright then." Zhang Ji Yuan sighed, looked at Ding Shaojun: "Junior Brother, think it through well, do not covet temporary advantages."

"Yes." Ding Shaojun nodded solemnly: "Three brothers, I will think it through carefully."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then we shall take our leave."

"The three brothers came from afar, and have not had a good rest." Ding Shaojun hurriedly said: "How about resting for a couple of days?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "I have matters to attend to today, I’ll return another day."

"Your Brother Chu is a busy man, no time for leisure, we’re leaving." Zhang Ji Yuan waved his hand.

"Yes." Ding Shaojun bowed with clenched fist.

Chu Zhiyuan and the other two gracefully left, directly returning to the Heaven-Reaching Sect Hall.

...

"This Junior Brother, hesitating, it’s an evil technique!"

Zhang Ji Yuan sat on the meditation mat, shaking his head continuously.

Ning Dongge said: "Brother Zhang, you really didn’t notice?"

"Notice what?"

"The Junior Brother doesn’t trust Junior Brother Chu’s judgment, wanting to verify it himself." Ning Dongge said: "He doesn’t want to discard cultivation based on just Junior Brother Chu’s words."

"Doesn’t believe Junior Brother Chu?!" Zhang Ji Yuan was surprised: "However, it’s understandable..."

He slowly nodded, able to understand.

First is the refusal to accept such a cruel fact, then comes ignorance of Junior Brother Chu’s power.

Switch to myself, it would probably be the same reaction.

First disbelief, denial, then skepticism, naturally resulting in hesitation.

He looked at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan was looking up at the top of the hall, lost in thought.

"Junior Brother Chu?" Zhang Ji Yuan called.

Chu Zhiyuan turned to look at him.

"How is this Junior Brother?" Zhang Ji Yuan smiled: "Though tainted by an evil technique, his aptitude should be fine, right?"

Chu Zhiyuan sighed.

Ning Dongge said: "Is this Junior Brother less than ideal?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded then shook his head: "He’s not suitable for our Heaven-Reaching Sect."

"Why?!" Zhang Ji Yuan hurriedly asked: "Because of the evil technique? Discard and rebuild is fine, his aptitude is extremely good!"

Such aptitude, astonishingly talented, even if not as good as Junior Brother Chu, not much less.

Ning Dongge said: "Is his identity problematic?"

Chu Zhiyuan sighed: "The conditions for performing the Seed Jade Evil Scripture are extremely harsh, not just aptitude, but also requires character compatibility."

"Character?" Ning Dongge and Zhang Ji Yuan’s expressions changed slightly, exchanging a glance.

Zhang Ji Yuan said: "I secretly observed him, his character seems quite upright, nothing should be wrong."

Ning Dongge nodded: "I felt he’s quite upright, no evil intentions."

"The nature is hard to change, habits are challenging to morph." Chu Zhiyuan sighed: "Everyone’s nature, even if later efforts for introspection bring change, it’s hard to completely extinguish it, and this Seed Jade Evil Scripture has already triggered his true nature."

Zhang Ji Yuan hesitated: "Junior Brother, you say Shaojun has an inherently evil nature?"

Chu Zhiyuan sighed: "Seen through the secret technique, he..."

With that shook his head: "He’s probably already gone."

Zhang Ji Yuan’s eyes widened.

Ning Dongge also said: "Not only doesn’t want to enter our Heaven-Reaching Sect, but seeks to escape?"

Chu Zhiyuan chuckled: "If you don’t believe, you can go back and check."

"I’ll go check." Zhang Ji Yuan stood up abruptly.

Ning Dongge followed and stood up too, the two stepped into the Light Gate and disappeared.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

He continued to draw the Spring Sun Sword, his eyes once again becoming hollow.

Time tracing.

He flowed upstream in the river of time, witnessing the transformation of era after era.

After a while, his eyes returned to normal, glowing bright, with a smile at his lips.

Unexpectedly, such good luck.

The owner of this sword cultivated the Spring Breeze Brushing Willow Sword Technique, and the sword technique he mastered was precisely one from the Spring Breeze Brushing Willow Sword Technique.

No wonder when wielding the Spring Sun Sword, it felt exceptionally smooth, and when performing that sword technique, it was perfectly harmonious, so powerful.

It turns out this sword technique complements this sword, able to unleash the strongest power.

Of course, more than one person trained in the Fuliu Chunfeng Sword Technique, and the owner of this sword is not that Divine Race girl he saw, but rather a Divine Race man named Dai Chunhui, hence the sword is named Spring Sun Sword.

He personally took Heavenly Meteorite and used Miracle Method to forge this sword, most fitting with the Fuliu Chunfeng Sword Technique.

Through this sword, he not only saw Dai Chunhui’s swordsmanship but also basic Internal Cultivation Methods.

Unfortunately, through the perspective of the Spring Sun Sword, he can only see its form, not its essence.

The most core mental method is often passed down through memory or secret technique, not recorded in text.

Upon seeing these, he subtly gave up the idea of obtaining Divine Race Heart Methods.

Not recorded in text, even with Donghuan Saint Technique and Divine Eye, there’s no way.

Donghuan Saint Technique and Divine Eye, no matter how strong, can’t pry open Divine Race’s head, to see what they think.

Even standing in front of them personally can’t accomplish this, let alone the upstream time of them.

He quickly gathered his thoughts, and began to contemplate the other three forms of sword technique.

Fuliu Chunfeng Sword Technique consists of four forms, all of which are gentle with intense inner strength, incredibly powerful.

What he mastered was the First Form, the weakest in power, and the easiest to master.

So that Divine Race girl who could perform it, likely did not master the Second Form.

Even if knowing the method of practice, understanding its mental realm, the precise contemplation needed to transform it into one’s mental state is exceedingly difficult.

Chu Zhiyuan was contemplating its essence when Zhang Ji Yuan and Ning Dongge returned with dark faces.
