Chapter 369: Sword Master’s Challenge (2)

This was closely related to his steady cultivation approach.

Now that he had completed his breakthrough, he could start to do some of the things that he could not do before.

For example, cultivating the remaining Big Dipper sword intents.

Previously, he had only learned 30 Big Dipper sword intents.

The remaining Big Dipper sword intents could not be cultivated for the time being because his cultivation was not enough.

For the current him, cultivating the complete Big Dipper sword intents was a huge improvement.

Lu Yuan felt that once he learned all of the Big Dipper sword intents, the Celestial Eradication Sword Array he had mastered should be able to reach its complete form.

At that time, with his current cultivation, he would be able to display the complete Celestial Eradication Sword Array.

Although he dared not to say anything else, an ordinary expert at the Ethereal Stage would definitely not be his match.

Besides learning the remaining Big Dipper sword intents, Lu Yuan had another thing to do.

This matter was not difficult. It was the matter that he had promised Gu Qiuyue.

That was to become the new Sword Master of one of the 36 Big Dipper Sword Domains.

As for which Sword Domain to choose, Lu Yuan actually had an idea.

It was the Sword Master of the Fierce Star Sword Domain, Song Zheng, whom he had first met.

The reason why Song Zheng didn’t pass on his information to the other sword masters back then was because Song Zheng himself was not strong enough.

Hence if he wanted to use this matter to break through to the Ethereal Stage as soon as possible…

Among the 36 Sword Masters of the Big Dipper Sword Domain, Song Zheng was the weakest. He was at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage.

If Lu Yuan wanted to choose an opponent, Song Zheng was undoubtedly the best opponent.

Lu Yuan didn’t think too much about whether this would be a little unkind.

After all, the cultivation world was a place of dominance. Although Lu Yuan didn’t like to fight with others, it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t fight with others.

If he won, he could only say that Song Zheng was not as capable as him. There was nothing to say.

However, before he challenged Song Zheng, the first thing he had to do was to learn all the Big Dipper sword intents.

This time, however, Lu Yuan would not let too many people know.

After all, even though he had the ability to protect himself now, he still had to keep some necessary trump cards.

The complete 36 Big Dipper sword intents was the trump card that Lu Yuan had left for himself.

He didn’t want others to know that he had the ability to learn all the Big Dipper sword intents.

This way, others would not easily underestimate him.

For Lu Yuan, who was already used to pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, if he could not trick people, then he would lose more than half of his advantage.

Thirty years later, in the Fierce Star Sword Domain.

“Have you heard? The new consort of the Speed Star Sword Domain is going to challenge our Sword Master. He has just broken through to the Apotheosis Stage, yet he dares to challenge Sword Master Song Zheng, who is at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage.”

“Of course, I’ve heard of it. A Sword Master challenge isn’t anything rare. It happens once or twice every hundred years.”

“But this is the first time we’ve seen such a huge disparity in strength.”

“I wonder what that cultivator called Lu Yuan is thinking. An early-stage Apotheosis Stage cultivator challenging an Apotheosis Stage cultivator, who was at his peak stage. Does he think that he’s the only heavenly pride in this world? To be able to come to the Spirit Sword Sect and even become the Sword Master, which one of them isn’t the best among the cultivators of the same generation? Anyway, I don’t think that this cultivator called Lu Yuan will win.”

“I don’t have much confidence in him either. I think he just wants to use this matter to increase his reputation in the sect. After all, I heard that he wasn’t even a thousand years old when he broke through to the Apotheosis Stage.”

“Probably, but no matter how talented he is, there’s still a huge gap between the early stage of the Apotheosis Stage and the peak stage.”

“Even though Sword Master Song Zheng doesn’t seem to have any competitive spirit, that’s only because the other sword heads are too powerful. If he has such a back, 1 don’t believe that Sword Master Song Zheng will let him off so easily.”

“After all, it would be fine if he won this time. If he lost, it would be too embarrassing. It would be embarrassing if someone at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage couldn’t defeat an early-stage Apotheosis Stage cultivator.”

The entire crowd in the Fierce Star Sword Domain was talking about Lu Yuan challenging Song Zheng. Even the other Sword Domains were discussing it animatedly.

On the one hand, the Sword Master Challenge was considered a major event in the entire Spirit Sword Sect.

After all, generally speaking, one had to be at least at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage to be qualified to challenge the Sword Master.

For most cultivators, the Apotheosis Stage Realm was the end of their lives.

Being able to watch a fight between an Apotheosis Stage would definitely be of great help to most cultivators.

Therefore, the matter of Sword Master’s challenge itself had attracted a lot of attention.

After all, this was one of the few times where the crowd could directly watch the battle between Apotheosis Stage experts. They definitely wouldn’t miss it.

Another reason for such a huge commotion was the huge difference in strength between Lu Yuan and Song Zheng.

No matter where it was, it would be a very sensational matter for an early-stage Soul Formation cultivator to challenge a peak-stage Soul Formation cultivator.

Although they didn’t think highly of the Lu Yuan.

The people present were not fools.

If Lu Yuan did not have the ability, such a piece of news would not have spread at all. The other sword masters would not have agreed to this challenge at all.

The current situation could only mean that Lu Yuan definitely had a chance of winning.

Because only a battle where both sides had a chance of winning would have any meaning to discuss.

This also showed that Lu Yuan was not a simple cultivator.

It also made many people curious about how talented Lu Yuan was to have the confidence to challenge Song Zheng, who was at the peak of the Apotheosis Stage, with his identity as an early-stage Apotheosis Stage cultivator.

And as this matter spread throughout the Spirit Sword Sect.

There were two people who paid great attention to the Swordmaster’s challenge this time.

One of them was Jing Ming, who had met Lu Yuan several times.

At this moment, after Jing Ming confirmed that Lu Yuan was the person he had met in the lower realm, his expression was very complicated.

Actually, after Lu Yuan entered the Upper Realm, Jing Ming did not pay much attention to Lu Yuan.

This was because he felt that although Lu Yuan’s talent was not bad, it was only not bad.

As an Apotheosis Stage expert, Jing Ming had seen many geniuses.

However, not many of these geniuses grew up in the end.

At that time, he felt that Lu Yuan’s personality was not very likable. If he could even reach the Apotheosis Stage in this lifetime, it would be considered pretty good.

However, he did not expect Lu Yuan to actually reach the Apotheosis Stage in such a short period of time.

One had to know that before entering the Upper Realm, Lu Yuan had just reached the Nascent Soul Realm, while he was at the early stage of the Apotheosis Stage.

Now that several hundred years had passed, he had finally reached the middle stage of the Apotheosis Stage. Even so, he felt that his cultivation cultivation speed was already very fast.

Not only had Lu Yuan reached the Apotheosis Stage, but he also had the confidence to challenge a peak Apotheosis Stage Sword Master.

Jing Ming felt that he was not qualified to challenge Sword Master even with the strength of a cultivator at the middle stage of the Apotheosis Stage.

What kind of confidence did Lu Yuan have to think that he could do this?

Jing Ming was very curious about this.

Apart from being curious, Jing Ming was also a little unconvinced.

He felt that Lu Yuan’s challenge this time was most likely just to gain a certain amount of popularity.

Lu Yuan didn’t really have the strength to challenge the Sword Master.

This thought wasn’t strange, because if he admitted that Lu Yuan really had the ability to challenge Sword Master, what difference would it make to Jing Ming if he admitted that he was trash?

Someone, who had only cultivated in the Upper Realm for a few hundred years, already had the strength to challenge the Sword Master. However, he, an old Apotheosis Stage cultivator, who had lived in the Upper Realm for so long, could not do this.

Wasn’t this admitting that he was inferior to the other party?

Jing Ming naturally did not want to admit that he was inferior to Lu Yuan.

After all, he had more or less disliked Lu Yuan back then.

Who asked this guy to kidnap his only granddaughter?

Jing Ming’s opinion of Lu Yuan’s strength was actually what most people thought of him.

If there were a few people in the entire Spirit Sword Sect who believed that Lu Yuan would win in the end, then one of them was none other than Xu Wan’er.

Xu Wan’er, who was in the Killer Star Sword Domain, rushed over immediately after hearing that Lu Yuan wanted to challenge Song Zheng.

She knew Lu Yuan’s character and understood that as long as he made a decision, he would have a 200% chance of success.

This was because Lu Yuan was such a person. As long as there was a 1% chance of failure, he would not easily try.

Now that everyone knew that Lu Yuan was challenging a Sword Master, this could only mean that Lu Yuan thought that he would definitely win!

Since it was a duel that was destined to be won, she naturally had to cheer for Lu Yuan!
