My Informative Cultivation Life

After flying forward for five miles, he saw another Supreme Sword Technique, "Myriad Swords Return to the Sect."

He descended, but as soon as he touched the sword marks, a myriad of fine Sword Qi forced him back.

Yang Ji couldn't help but be startled, mentally exclaiming how unreasonable Myriad Swords Return to the Sect was, treating a guest in such a way. He had only touched it, there was no need for such an overreaction.

Yang Ji took a couple more glances, then left dejectedly, because he noticed Sword Light flaring up again on the wall of the cave. If he did not leave, he estimated more slashes would head his way.

These Supreme Sword Techniques, in harmony with the Great Dao, had already become sentient. From afar, they could sense the aura emanating from Yang Ji. If there was no compatibility, they would not bother with him at all, and some would even expel him just like Myriad Swords Return to the Sect did.

This included the Time Sword Technique and the Life and Death Sword Technique that he encountered.

In addition, the Great Slaughter Sword Technique was the most arrogant, sending a slaughtering Sword Light at Yang Ji the moment he descended, its intense killing aura so dense it was almost impossible to dissipate, scaring Yang Ji into instant flight.

Along the way, he saw several Supreme Sword Techniques, which made Yang Ji both happy and sorrowful. Seeing them but unable to attain them, his mood was a mix of many feelings.

He continued flying forward.

He passed by several dozen Great Divine Power sword techniques, but without any response, he flew straight past them.

As time slowly ticked by, suddenly, the Sword Talisman in his mind vibrated.

Yang Ji rejoiced inwardly, thinking, "It seems that Senior Gu Xinghe truly left sword techniques inside the Sword Cave, but I wonder what they are!"

He had finally felt a response after flying all this way.

Following the guidance of the Sword Talisman, he flew towards it, and soon he stopped in front of a section of the cave wall, which displayed the message, "Great Sword Realm Art, a Supreme Sword Technique."

"Great Sword Realm Art! A Supreme level! Indeed, it's a Supreme Sword Technique!" Yang Ji's breath hitched, and he eagerly reached out to touch the sword marks on the cave wall.

At that moment, the Sword Talisman in his mind trembled slightly, and Sword Light faintly shimmered on the cave wall. Then, a series of spirited Sword Dao scriptures, as if they had a life of their own, appeared.

Each scripture was like a tiny Flying Sword, emitting a fierce and vast Sword Qi and profound and obscure Daonic essence.

Seeing the Sword Dao scriptures materialize, Yang Ji was thrilled.

It seemed he was fated with Senior Gu Xinghe after all; this Sword Talisman in his mind turned out to be a sword guide.

This Supreme Sword Technique was thus presented before him, a Supreme-level technique indeed, an incredibly heaven-defying opportunity.

Yang Ji immediately focused and calmed his mind, operating the Sword Talisman in his brain to receive the scriptures.

As each scripture turned into a tiny Flying Sword and entered his Sea of Consciousness, the profound mysteries of this earth-shattering Supreme Sword Technique gradually emerged.

As the last scripture merged into his mind, Yang Ji was overwhelmed with excitement, gaining a general understanding of the formidable nature of this sword technique.

One must first let their spirit wander in the vast void to sense the Sword Realm during the cultivation of this technique. The moment the Primordial Spirit leaves the body, every thought will be covered with a projection of the Sword Realm, forming an ethereal Sword Realm.

The Sword Realm suppresses everything, and all things enshrouded by its projection will be immobilized, subject to its domination, and annulled to dust by the Supreme Sword Qi from the Sword Realm.

The instant the Primordial Spirit in the form of a sword touches an enemy, that very moment is the condensed projection of the Sword Realm, a sword strike that gathers the full Sword Dao power of the entire Sword Realm projection, with a might that shocks the heavens and earth.

A formidable weapon!

This sword technique is indeed a crushing formidable weapon.

Just by reading the scripture, Yang Ji could sense the terror of this sword technique, borrowing the power of the Sword Realm to annihilate everything, to strangle everything, truly powerful indeed.

This technique was somewhat similar to the Demon Sacrifice of Tian Xie. His was merely borrowing the power of the Demon Ancestor from the Demon Realm, while this sword technique was borrowing the power of the entire Sword Realm.

There was no limit to this technique. The stronger the Primordial Spirit, the tighter its connection with the Sword Realm, the more solid the projection, the more powerful the borrowed Sword Realm strength.

Yang Ji had a bold idea that perhaps the ultimate goal of this sword technique was to refine the entire Sword Realm into a Supreme Immortal Technique. At that time, the power unleashed would be unimaginably world-shaking.

It goes without saying, such a thought was simply too bold and mad.

It should be known that the Sword Realm is a grand world above the Nine Heavens, and though not as profound as the Immortal Realm, its level far surpasses that of the Three Thousand Great Realms and the Infinite Minor Realms below the Nine Heavens.

The very thought of refining such a world for one's own use can indeed be described as earth-shattering.

Worlds like this are different from the Immortal Realm; they are born mysterious and hidden within the space-time of the heavens. Ordinary people cannot find them; only those with great luck whose Primordial Spirit leaves the body and wanders the Myriad Realms might faintly sense them.

However, with the Great Sword Realm Art, Yang Ji could find it through sensing. If his strength was sufficient, it was not impossible for him to turn the thoughts in his heart into reality.

The more he thought about it, the more inexplicably excited Yang Ji became in his heart, as if he had seen the birth of a Supreme Immortal Technique, an Era-Defining Immortal Technique, an Origin Immortal Technique.

Once this idea emerged, it grew bigger and bigger in his heart, impossible to extinguish no matter how hard he tried.

Yet Yang Ji knew that this was just a grand vision in his heart; to achieve it, he might need to reach the level of an Immortal King.

Furthermore, the Sword Realm, just like the Qi Realm, Pill Realm, Life Realm, and Spirit Realm above the Nine Heavens, was equally mysterious, hidden amongst the heavens, with its position constantly changing.

Few people were aware of it, and not many understood it. Whether there were living beings inside, how it was born, whether it had a master, all were unknown.

Refining the Sword Realm was, for the time being, just a bold wish!

To be able to learn this sword technique, to sense the Sword Realm and borrow a trace of its power was already supremely satisfying for him.

The more Yang Ji studied the sword technique, the more he found it to be exquisite. A question arose in his heart; he wondered if this sword technique was created by the senior Gu Xinghe?

If it truly was created by senior Gu Xinghe, then he indeed possessed awe-inspiring talent and was truly extraordinary.

Just as Yang Ji's thoughts drifted, Senior Lin Meng's voice suddenly came to his ears, "Young Master Yang, the time of one incense stick has passed, come out now!"

Yang Ji's expression paused; he had not realized that time had passed so quickly. He immediately collected his thoughts and flew out of the Sword Cave.

Outside the cave, Wang Tianli and Hao Yun had already been waiting.

Upon seeing him come out, Lin Meng greeted him with a smile and asked, "Young Master Yang, did you acquire any sword technique inside?"

"Indeed, I obtained a sword technique," replied Yang Ji as well.

"Oh? Which sword technique did Junior Brother acquire?" Hao Yun sensed that Yang Ji was still flying further inside when he was receiving the Sword Dao inheritance; he couldn't help but be curious about which sword technique Yang Ji had obtained.

Wang Tianli also smiled and looked over.

"And the two Senior Brothers? What sword techniques did you both obtain?" Yang Ji asked with a smile.

"I obtained a Great Divine Power sword technique called 'Ancient Waves of the Vast Sea,'" said Wang Tianli.

"I, too, have obtained a Great Divine Power sword technique called 'Flying Immortal Sword Technique,'" stated Hao Yun.

"Junior Brother, on the other hand, has obtained a Supreme Sword Technique," Yang Ji said.

"Supreme Sword Technique?" Wang Tianli and Hao Yun exchanged glances, both enviously smiling, "It seems Junior Brother is indeed a bit luckier."

"Young Master Yang, is it the Great Sword Realm Art?" Lin Meng's expression shifted as he asked.

"Yes, and I would like to ask the senior if this sword technique was created by Senior Gu Xinghe?" Yang Ji asked curiously.

"That's not the case. There's a legend that this sword technique comes from the mythical Sword Realm.

It's said that our ancestor Gu accidentally sensed the Sword Realm while roaming the universe, and that's how he fortuitously acquired this sword technique," Lin Meng said with a smile, "Your gaining this sword technique implies that you indeed have a connection with Ancestor Gu, and also with the Sword Realm."

"The Sword Realm? That world is somewhat mysterious; rumors say there are no living creatures within, only a sword. The entire world is filled with the sharp Sword Qi emitted by that sword. It's an ocean of Sword Qi, and ordinary Immortals would be injured by the Sword Qi even if they find and enter the Sword Realm.

There are rumors that an Immortal King sought to obtain the sword within the Sword Realm. He found the Sword Realm, but no one knows why he ultimately failed," murmured Hao Yun.

"Oh? Even an Immortal King couldn't acquire that sword?" Knowing a bit of Hao Yun's background, Wang Tianli believed his words to be credible, and he became curious.

"A world for a sword, isn't it like a body for a soul? I speculate that this Immortal King was defeated by that sword," Hao Yun surprisingly said.

"A world as a sword, a different kind of colossal life?" Yang Ji's expression shifted as he murmured to himself.

(Lately, whether it's due to the weather or perhaps because I'm getting older, I feel dizzy and lack energy after staying up late. The outline for the story has already progressed to where Yang Ji becomes Daozi. I will adjust my state and try to update more frequently, but it's challenging when your body can't keep up with your ambitions. It's quite frustrating.)
