Chapter 159: Galaxy Sword Skills
Lu Bei looked at the wine in the glass with a determined look. Through the clear and bright wine, he seemed to see the chaos and darkness on his own path of growth.
He seemed to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood ahead, endless enemies lurking in the dark, and a fog that covered the sky and obscured the sun.
If you want to reach the other side and climb to the top of the mountain, you must cut through the chaos and darkness along the way and use your sword to cut through the clarity.
Lu Bei quietly clenched his fists, his heart filled with fighting spirit.
Gai Nie smiled and said, "After tomorrow, you will continue to step into the martial arts world and face your challenges."
"You are my senior brother's son. I believe you can do no worse than him."
Gai Nie patted Lu Bei's shoulder gently and said solemnly, "I look forward to the moment when I can fight alongside you in the future."
"And the people from the Xiayin Sect left behind by your father, we are all looking forward to you becoming stronger and fighting alongside you," Shangguan Yurou also said softly.
"Okay, I will become stronger as soon as possible," Lu Bei nodded heavily.
Shangguan Yurou thought of something, "Xiaobei, Auntie is giving you some gifts as a greeting gift to support you in your journey."
"Oh, then thank you first, auntie," Lu Bei's eyes lit up.
Shangguan Yurou took off the light green storage bag from her waist and took out a large pile of yellow paper engraved with bright runes.
There were nearly a hundred photos in the pile, each one flashing a different color.
Lu Bei was surprised, "Aunt, what is this?"
Shangguan Yurou smiled and said, "Xiaobei, these are all the immortal talismans I drew."
"My talent in the art of immortal talismans seems to be higher than that in Qi refining. I am now at the Grandmaster level, so the level of these immortal talismans is quite good, and is a level rarely seen in the martial arts world."
Lu Bei suddenly thought of his junior sister Ye Fuling, whom the sword-making master Mo Shengqi had mentioned.
He was shocked. "Aunt, do you know Ye Fuling?"
Shangguan Yurou nodded and smiled, "I know her. When we were young, she and I were equally famous, and we were known as the twin beauties of the talisman path in the Middle-earth Divine Land."
"Now, she should also be the Grand Master of Immortal Talismans."
Lu Bei nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I heard that she is also a master of formations."
Shangguan Yurou smiled bitterly, "I'm not as good as her in this respect. My comprehension of formations is a little lacking. I can only draw talismans. My future achievements will not be as good as hers."
Lu Bei hurriedly encouraged, "Aunt, you are already very good, at least in my heart you are the best."
"I don't know Ye Fuling. She's not as powerful as you are to me."
"You are one of us."
As he said that, Lu Bei gave a thumbs up.
Shangguan Yurou's face lit up with delight as she softly praised, "Not bad, Xiaobei is much more articulate than your father. These runes are little gadgets I drew when I was bored researching over the years. I was going to give you half, but since you're nice, I'll give you all."
"Give it all to me?" Lu Bei instantly showed a greedy look and smiled.
"Well, I'll give it all to you. I'll go back and draw more," Shangguan Yurou nodded slightly.
"You only need to draw out your divine power to sense the various runes above and you can use them. It's very simple."
Lu Bei hurriedly took the runes, which were of various kinds.
He sensed with his mind and found various runes such as the travel talisman, the concealment talisman, the energy-increasing talisman, the wind-avoidance talisman, the water-avoidance talisman, the fire-avoidance talisman, and the burning talisman.
Lu Bei was very excited and secretly sighed that he had met generous relatives.
He couldn't stop smiling and happily put all the magic talismans into the magic ring.
Then, he raised his glass with both hands and said respectfully, "Aunt, I toast to you."
"Okay," Shangguan Yurou clinked glasses with him.
After drinking, Lu Bei subconsciously looked at Gai Nie.
Gai Nie smiled faintly, "Nephew, before you grow up, I may not give you much support. At most, I will prevent those old guys from hindering your growth."
"But the only thing I can do to support you is to teach you the true Galaxy Sword Technique!"
Lu Bei's eyes suddenly brightened, and he asked excitedly, "Is this the Xinghe Sword Skill that my father improved?"
"Yes, your father passed it to me, and I passed it to you, go on!" Gai Nie suddenly said in a deep voice.
He suddenly pointed a finger at the center of Lu Bei's eyebrows, and a ray of bright starlight instantly penetrated into Lu Bei's mind.
Lu Bei suddenly felt dizzy and his head was swirling.
He hurriedly held onto the table, hugged his head, and gritted his teeth to resist the strong discomfort, "Uncle Master, what level is this sword skill!"
Gai Nie chuckled, "The original Xinghe Sword Skill had eighteen moves in total, and was of the mid-level Heavenly Rank."
Lu Bei successfully dispelled the discomfort caused by the starlight. After regaining his clarity, he looked at Gai Nie excitedly, his mind in shock.
Gai Nie continued with a smile, "But after Senior Brother improved it, he eliminated the redundant sword techniques and integrated and derived the remaining sword techniques. In the end, only three styles remained, and they currently have no rank."
Lu Bei was stunned for a moment, his face blank, "Ah? Why is there no grade?"
Gai Nie smiled faintly, "Because this sword technique is extremely special, it can only be mastered by geniuses. So after an ordinary person learns it, the power may not be as strong as that of a Yellow Rank. But if a sword genius learns it, the power may exceed the limit of the Heaven Rank and reach the level of a Divine Rank."
"God-like!" Lu Bei was stunned.
Shangguan Yurou was also extremely surprised and looked at him curiously.
Gai Nie smiled proudly, "Yes, Senior Brother told me that these three sword techniques have extremely high requirements for both the body and the soul. According to his deduction, the ultimate power of these three techniques can reach the level of divine enlightenment."
"Senior Brother said that there are not only the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Martial Arts in this world, but there are also Martial Arts at the Divine Level or even more powerful ones. However, most of the Martial Arts above the Divine Level have been lost with the disappearance of the immortals."
“There may still be some divine-level techniques in this world, but these techniques are only in the hands of those old fellows who hide in the sects to avoid the divine tribulation and cannot freely appear in the world.”
"So, if you can comprehend this technique and raise its power to the level of a god, I'm afraid your fighting power will be enough to roam the world. Unless those old guys risk being struck by the divine calamity to punish you, otherwise, your swordsmanship will be invincible."
Lu Bei's eyes were burning as he asked excitedly, "Master, have you reached the state of enlightenment now?"
"Uh," Gai Nie was stunned.
He shook his head awkwardly. "My body isn't as strong as my senior brother's, so of course I can't unleash the true power of this sword technique. Furthermore, this sword technique has an ultimate move, the Silent Star Slash, which requires the understanding of the Silent Sword Intent. I don't know how my senior brother was able to comprehend this rare sword intent. I've practiced diligently for decades, but to no avail."
"Now, in my hands, this sword skill is at most a Heavenly Grade Upper Grade, one level higher than the grade originally circulated in the Xinghe Sword Sect."
Lu Bei suddenly realized and remembered that his uncle had been weak since childhood.
Lu Bei nodded and stopped talking. Instead, he used his mind to sense the three sword techniques in his mind.
The first move is called Stacked Stars, which is a sword technique about how to maximize the lethality of the galaxy sword energy in the body.
Lu Bei looked at it and found that this was a technique that increased the density of sword energy by vibrating the sword with the arm. It looked simple and crude.
Lu Bei was puzzled and muttered inwardly, "God-level, is this all?"
"Isn't this too simple?"
But when he looked more closely, he discovered the trick.
As he watched till the end, his expression became weirder and weirder, and he felt that this sword technique was too weird.
Because this sword technique can increase the lethality by adding sword energy density through the momentary vibration when swinging the sword, theoretically the sword can be swung ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, or even a billion times in an instant.
The more times you swing the sword, the higher the density of the sword energy.
Moreover, this move has three realms: thousands of waves, tens of thousands of mountains, and billions of galaxies hanging in the sky.
Qianchonglang is considered a small achievement. When one reaches the highest level of cultivation, a single strike of the sword will create a starry sky filled with murderous aura.
Lu Bei imagined blankly, billions of times, what does that mean.
What kind of body can achieve this level?
