Chapter 322: Heavens Sword Intent, 72 Earth Sword Intent (1)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Upper Realm, Spirit Sword Sect’s outer sect.
“Young Master, this is the outer sect of the Spirit Sword Sect. The people here are all ordinary disciples or handyman disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect. Although your cultivation is enough to become a direct disciple, due to the special nature of the Spirit Sword Sect, the method of selecting direct disciples here is not quite the same as that of ordinary sects.”
“If you want to become a direct disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, you must comprehend any one of the thirty-six heavens sword intents or the seventy-two earth sword intents. The more sword intent you comprehend, the more sect resources you can obtain.”
“Now, I have only comprehended one heavens sword intent and one earth sword intent. In the entire Spirit Sword Sect, less than a thousand can comprehend the heavens sword intent. The remaining tens of thousands of direct disciples almost all comprehend earth sword intents. Therefore, those who can comprehend the heavens sword intents are called the Heaven Sword Inheritors, those who comprehend the earth sword intent are the Earth Sword Inheritors, and the rest are the Human Sword Inheritors.”
“Young Master, if you want to gain the attention of the Spirit Sword Sect, you need to try your best to comprehend the heavens sword intent. As the 1001st Heaven Sword Inheritor in the sect, 1 have a chance to enter the back mountain, Myriad Sword Mountain, every ten years. The Myriad Sword Mountain is where the immortal swords of the Spirit Sword Sect’s various predecessors have been left behind. It is also the largest treasure vault of the Spirit Sword Sect. The 36 heavens sword intent and the 72 earth sword intents are all in the Myriad Sword Mountain.”
“Every disciple who has just joined the Spirit Sword Sect has a chance to enter the Myriad Sword Mountain for comprehension. After that, they will need to complete the tasks arranged by the sect to have the opportunity to continue comprehending. With your talent, I believe that comprehending the heavens sword intent will not be a problem.”
After listening to Xu Wan’er’s introduction, Lu Yuan had a general understanding of the entire Spirit Sword Sect.
He looked up at the towering sword mountain at the back, and for the first time, he felt how small he was.
He estimated that the height of this sword mountain was definitely above 10,000 meters. It was not a problem for a million people to live on such a huge mountain.
This was the main body of the Spirit Sword Sect, the Upside-down Greatsword Mountain.
It was named that way because if one looked closely, one would find that the mountain was narrow at the bottom and wide at the top. It looked like a giant immortal sword that had been inserted into the ground.
“Young Master, this is the Myriad Sword Mountain’s enlightenment token. You can enter the mountain once with this token.”
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment as he looked at Xu Wan’er who handed him the token.
If he remembered correctly, the enlightenment token represented Xu Wan’er’s only chance to enter Myriad Sword Mountain within these ten years.
If she gave this opportunity to him, then she would lose a precious opportunity for comprehension.
Ten years, especially the ten years when she had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, was undoubtedly very crucial for her.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan smiled and said, “Wan’er, you should keep this token for yourself. I know that it’s very important to you. Since I have come here, 1 naturally have my plans. You don’t have to do this. And didn’t you say that I, as a new disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, have a chance for comprehension? Since I already have a chance, why should 1 waste your token?”
Seeing that Lu Yuan was unwilling to accept her enlightenment token, Xu Wan’er hurriedly said, “Young Master, you don’t know about the Myriad Sword Mountain. The enlightenment token is not just a token. It contains the sword intent of a certain Spirit Sword Sect senior. With this enlightenment token, the sword intent damage you will receive when you enter Myriad Sword Mountain will be greatly reduced, and it can also increase your comprehension of sword intent.”
“If ordinary disciples enter the Myriad Sword Mountain without an enlightenment token, then unless they are some monstrous geniuses with innate sword intent, the rest will have to face the invasion of large amounts of sword intent at any time. The damage of sword intents to the physical body is secondary. The most worrying thing is that one may be deeply corroded by sword intents. Every year, many disciples who enter the Myriad Sword Mountain become sword slaves because of the corrosion of sword intents. Once a cultivator becomes a sword slave, they are destined to be enslaved for the rest of their lives and have no chance of advancing further!”
There was such a thing?
Lu Yuan originally thought that Myriad Sword Mountain was just an ordinary cultivation place, but now it seemed that things were not as simple as he thought.
The situation seemed to be quite complicated.
In his understanding, the so-called sword intent corrosion was similar to the assimilation of laws.
For example, if one was deeply influenced by a certain sword intent, then when one cultivated, one would unconsciously move in the direction of that sword intent. With that, people with insufficient talent would unconsciously copy the sword intent’s path and completely lose themselves.
In other words, they would become a sword slave.
Only those who could maintain their rationality and walk their own path on the basis of the comprehended sword intents could be considered to have truly escaped the influence of the sword intents.
Thinking about it this way, an enlightenment token that could reduce the corrosion of sword intent on a cultivator and increase the cultivator’s comprehension of sword intent was indeed very precious.
That being said, ordinary people might have to worry about being corroded by sword intents, but Lu Yuan with his Innate Spirit did not have such problems.
Furthermore, in terms of comprehending the laws, the Innate Spirit was equivalent to maxing out one’s comprehension ability. There was no need for the enlightenment token to increase his comprehension ability.
Therefore, the enlightenment token was useless to him.
Besides, Lu Yuan didn’t want his “realm” to increase too quickly.
If his performance was too monstrous and noticed by the higher-ups of the Spirit Sword Sect, this would be contrary to his idea of hidden development..
