Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards-Chapter 200 - 131: Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, Sword Gang Division—It’s Time!

Chapter 200: Chapter 131: Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, Sword Gang Division—It’s Time!

Within the Wind Moon Sect, the number of Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivators far exceeds that of those in the Early Stage, and many of them are powerful elders. Unlike some Early Stage elders, who only hold common positions managing less important and unrewarding affairs, subject to the control of the powerful elders.

But what about me?

In just about five years, I advanced from being an entry-level Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator to a Middle Stage one!

Moreover, it’s not just any Middle Stage; it’s the Middle Stage with a foundation of eighty-one drops of liquid magical power!

With my current strength, in addition to the repeated secret slayings of Celestial Soul Hall elders, if revealed, it would be easy for me to gain a powerful elder’s position within the Wind Moon Sect. No one could object, whether due to my strength or elder merit points. Of course, for now, Qi Chuan hasn’t considered this yet.

Currently, Qi Chuan has set his sights on another matter.

"Since I have already reached the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, it’s time to master the Fifth Layer Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique and acquire a new powerful Sword Dao Divine Technique," Qi Chuan mused.

Previously, Qi Chuan practiced only the Fourth Layer Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique, suitable for the Early Stage, while the Fifth Layer is suited for the Middle Stage.

Then, Qi Chuan closed his eyes, perusing the Fifth Layer of the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique in his mind.

As he carefully read through the heart method of the Fifth Layer, the understanding of its essence began to surface in his mind.

The Fifth Layer sword technique is much harder to cultivate than the Fourth Layer, filled with obscure and challenging aspects. But now, with years of experience, Qi Chuan managed to glean some insights after one reading, though not achieving complete comprehension.

After a diligent half day, Qi Chuan finally finished reading and understanding it once.

With eyes closed, he meticulously organized this session’s insights in his mind, and after a brief pause, Qi Chuan opened his eyes, a hint of bewilderment lingering in their depths.

[You earnestly comprehend the Fifth Layer Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique, attempting to gain entry level understanding, triggering a fiftyfold critical strike, and gaining fiftyfold insights, slightly enhancing your understanding of the Fifth Layer.]

At this moment, a line of text appeared in his vision.

Simultaneously, a vast understanding of the Fifth Layer sword technique surged in Qi Chuan’s mind.

After digesting these insights, a realization surfaced in Qi Chuan’s gaze, unraveling many previously puzzled areas.

"Luckily, there was the hundredfold critical strike, otherwise, I don’t know how long it would take to master the Fifth Layer Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique."

Qi Chuan smiled.

However, he hadn’t completely grasped the Fifth Layer sword technique yet, and more effort was needed.

Thus, Qi Chuan closed his eyes again, continuing to comprehend the Fifth Layer sword technique.

Three days swiftly passed.

On this day, after comprehending the sword technique again, when Qi Chuan opened his eyes, a line of text appeared before him once more.

[You earnestly comprehend the Fifth Layer Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique, attempting to gain entry level understanding, triggering a hundredfold critical strike, and gaining a hundredfold insights, greatly enhancing your understanding of the Fifth Layer, successfully entering the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique Fifth Layer, and comprehending the divine technique: Sword Gang Division.]

As the text emerged, a plethora of insights regarding the Fifth Layer sword technique flooded Qi Chuan’s mind in an instant.

It took Qi Chuan quite some time to completely digest these insights.

At this moment, Qi Chuan realized that he had not only successfully mastered the Fifth Layer sword technique but also comprehended a new Sword Dao Divine Technique: Sword Gang Division.

Qi Chuan immediately examined this Sword Gang Division divine technique.

Derived from the Fifth Layer sword technique, this Sword Gang Division is undoubtedly more potent than the Fourth Layer, and what’s more important is its unique effect.

By using Sword Gang Division, when wielding a flying sword, an identical sword shadow can be conjured to strike the enemy.

This sword shadow can confuse the enemy, making it indistinguishable whether it’s the main body or the shadow, forcing them to defend and exhaust their protective measures, possibly making mistakes, and giving the hidden flying sword body a chance to break through and slay.

More importantly, the shadow possesses real attacking power, about one-tenth of the main body’s, and is similarly enveloped with Spirit Devouring Sword Gang, possessing all its formidable attributes.

Given Qi Chuan’s current realm and magical power foundation, coupled with the uniqueness of the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique and the Tier Two Upper Grade flying sword Fallen Cold Sword, even just one-tenth of the power is immense, definitely hard to withstand for a Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator.

Furthermore, this divine technique has the potential for growth; as the sword technique level advances, both the amount and power of the division sword shadows will continuously increase.

Reaching the Sixth Layer sword technique, the shadow’s power will rise to two-tenths of the main body’s.

Upon reaching the Seventh Layer sword technique, not only can the shadow’s power increase to three-tenths, but an additional sword shadow can also be divided.

As for reaching the Eighth Layer... Qi Chuan doesn’t yet know.

After all, currently, he only possesses the first seven layers of the Profound Celestial Spirit Devouring Sword Technique and one Spirit Devouring Sword Forging Technique.

The Eighth Layer and beyond will need to be developed after reaching Core Formation.

However, this Sword Gang Division divine technique will only continue to grow stronger and more frightening.

Moreover, it will remain useful across many higher realms, perpetually shining, a long-lasting divine technique.

Qi Chuan, with intent to test it, opened his mouth.

In the next moment, the Tier Two Upper Grade Fallen Cold Sword stirred within the Dantian, flew out, and a blue sword light shot out from Qi Chuan’s mouth, hovering a foot in front of him.

The blue sword light then trembled slightly, its glow and shadow blurred, and it instantly split into two blue sword lights.

In each of these blue sword lights, one could see the clear semblance of the Fallen Cold Sword, with every pattern and reflection identical, indistinguishable.

Even for Qi Chuan, if not for the different sensations between the main body and the division sword shadow, it would be hard to discern them.

And this is just in a stationary state.

In actual magical combat, both the main body and the division sword shadow would move at astonishing speeds, reaching the target in an instant. Reacting and defending in this moment would be hasty and risky; discerning the main body or sword shadow in such a short time? Impossible.

One would have to treat them both as the main body in defense.

"Indeed, the Sword Gang Division divine technique is truly powerful!"

Qi Chuan smiled slightly, clearly observing that the division sword shadow was also engulfed in Spirit Devouring Sword Gang, its power piercing through the void, extremely sharp.

With a single thought, the division sword shadow vanished instantly, while the main blue sword light flew back, entering his mouth, returning to the Dantian.

Thus, Qi Chuan became a true Foundation Establishment Middle Stage sword cultivator, wielding a Tier Two Upper Grade flying sword Fallen Cold Sword and possessing a foundation of eighty-one drops of liquid magical power, along with numerous powerful Sword Dao Divine Techniques. Such strength allows him to stand proudly among his peers in the same realm!

With his strength greatly enhanced, Qi Chuan stood up, stretched lazily, feeling incredibly joyful.

However, at that very moment, there was a familiar anomaly in the array outside the Cave Mansion.

"Hmm? Could it be that a steward has come again, with my master sending another secret message regarding the inner sect powerful elder’s spy?"

Qi Chuan wondered, extending his divine sense, indeed finding a steward from the Inner Affairs Hall outside the Cave Mansion, holding a secret message, just as he guessed.

"Perfect timing. I’ve just made a breakthrough, my strength has greatly increased, and it’s time to solve that inner sect traitor."

Qi Chuan sneered, striding out of the Cave Mansion.
