Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 752 - 750: The Secret of Sword Heart Heaven Jade

Chapter 752: Chapter 750: The Secret of Sword Heart Heaven Jade

The morning wind was chilling, and clouds in the sky constantly changed their shapes.

"Be careful, Luo Feng."

Yue Haitang, seeing Luo Feng’s determined look, flicked the Red Dragon Purple Gold Sword.

SWISH!

A piercing Sword Qi erupted from the tip of the sword, tearing several cracks in the ground.

Deciding to attack, Yue Haitang seemed to merge with the Red Dragon Purple Gold Sword in her hand, the aura surrounding her becoming sharp and causing the nearby air to slightly distort.

Luo Feng nodded, his right foot taking a half step forward. "Come on."

SWOOSH!

Yue Haitang held the sword vertically at the tip of her nose, her gaze passing along the sword’s edge, a cold light suddenly appearing in her pupils.

"Chaotic Moon Cloud Dance Sword Technique, Myriad Stars Arching the Moon!"

HUM!

With a flick of her wrist, Yue Haitang’s figure pounced, arriving just three steps in front of Luo Feng. The sword’s edge trembled rapidly, and untraceable streams of Sword Qi flew out erratically, like a myriad of stars in the night sky, sealing off all the weak points on Luo Feng’s body.

Feeling the sharpness of the oncoming attack, Luo Feng dared not be negligent. He fully utilized the Sky Cloud Step, his figure becoming a series of afterimages weaving through the Sword Qi. Occasionally, when confronted with unavoidable Sword Qi, he would use Palm Gang to resist.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

As the Gang Qi collided, violent shockwaves spread out, the Qi Force tearing cracks in the nearby ground.

SLASH!

Luo Feng had suppressed his Cultivation to the late-stage fourth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. Without a weapon or using any Martial Arts, how could he withstand a Second-Class Spirit Weapon? Due to a lapse, the Sword Gang immediately cut a bloody gash on his left shoulder.

Yue Haitang’s expression changed in shock. She hurriedly retracted her sword, anxiously asking, "Luo Feng, are you okay?"

Luo Feng waved his hand, stopping Yue Haitang from approaching. He circulated Yuan Qi to seal his wound and said with an unchanged expression, "Continue!"

Yue Haitang tightly pursed her lips, looking at Luo Feng, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She suddenly swung her sword, declaring, "I’m going all out now."

Luo Feng took his stance, a smile appearing on his face. "That’s exactly what I want!"

Yue Haitang took a deep breath, then tapped her toes on the ground.

CRACK!

The ground cracked open. Yue Haitang flicked her wrist, and a circle of azure Sword Qi began to hover around the Red Dragon Purple Gold Sword.

"Waning Moon Gentle Wind!"

SWISH! SWISH!

The sharp sound of displaced air rang out. The azure Sword Qi split into two, attacking Luo Feng from the left and right simultaneously.

The Sword Qi resembled two large azure pythons, leaving cracks in the ground wherever they passed, winding like snakes.

HUM!

Luo Feng neither retreated nor dodged. A circle of flame-like radiance burst from him, his fist as steady as a mountain as he met the two Sword Qi.

BANG! BANG!

The Sword Qi shattered, only to transform into dozens of smaller streams of Sword Qi that whirled out to attack.

SLASH! SLASH!

The flame-like radiance on Luo Feng’s body was cut by the Sword Qi, leaving several more sword marks on him.

WHOOSH!

Yue Haitang showed no intention of stopping. Her figure flashed as she pounced on Luo Feng again. With a shake of her hand, a wave of sharp Sword Qi was released, enveloping Luo Feng.

She was a late-stage Spiritual Rotation Realm practitioner, possessing a Second-Class Spirit Weapon. Her sword intent was earth-shattering, exuding an aura capable of slaying gods and demons. Every wave of Sword Qi contained terrifying sharpness.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

After the clashes, a few more bloodstains appeared on Luo Feng’s clothes.

But the more this happened, the more intense the battle intent in Luo Feng’s eyes grew. "Again!"

All the Yuan Qi in his body surged. Luo Feng formed his hand into a blade, and without any fancy moves, he struck towards Yue Haitang.

Although Yue Haitang had resolved not to show mercy, she still frowned when facing Luo Feng, whose momentum was like that of a fierce tiger. His unwavering determination was like a drawn treasured blade, committed to a path of no return! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

What amazed Yue Haitang even more was that Luo Feng used no weapon, nor did he employ any Martial Arts. Facing her full attack, he was only slightly at a disadvantage, yet his Gang Qi actually seemed to sharpen gradually. She found it inconceivable.

Knowing Luo Feng would not give up until he achieved his goal, Yue Haitang’s sharp aura flared. Her figure flashed, and she lunged at him with her sword.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

The two figures clashed fiercely in the courtyard. Their Gang Qi collided, even producing the sound of clashing metal.

SWOOSH!

Unbeknownst to them, a figure in white leather armor had appeared on the high wall of the courtyard.

Bing Hanbai stood on the wall, his cold and ruthless eyes staring at the two fiercely fighting in the courtyard.

An hour passed, then two. After four hours, Luo Feng’s clothes were stained with blood everywhere; not a single spot remained intact.

"Stop!"

SWISH!

Yue Haitang suddenly retracted her sword, her figure drifting back several meters. Frowning at Luo Feng, she said, "You’ve lost too much blood. Let’s call it a day."

Luo Feng stopped and nodded. "Alright, we’ll continue tomorrow."

CLANG!

Yue Haitang sheathed her sword and walked over, opening her palm. A white jade-colored pill lay in her pristine hand.

"This is a Jadeite Pill. It can regulate Chi circulation and revitalize the blood. It’s also beneficial for healing external injuries."

Luo Feng took the pill and swallowed it. He immediately felt an icy coolness penetrating his internal organs, seeping into his flesh bit by bit. He smiled and said, "Haitang, thank you."

Yue Haitang glanced into the courtyard, her eyes flashing with a peculiar brilliance. She shook her head and said, "I can only help you with these trivial matters."

Seeing the basket of food nearby, Yue Haitang exclaimed, "Ah! We were so engrossed in training that the food has gone cold. You must be hungry. I’ll have the kitchen heat it up."

Without waiting for Luo Feng’s response, Haitang briskly walked away with the basket.

Luo Feng watched Yue Haitang leave, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. He shook his head, looked up, and noticed Bing Hanbai on the wall.

There was no expression on Bing Hanbai’s face; with a flash, he vanished without a trace.

Seeing Bing Hanbai leave, Luo Feng furrowed his brow. He had been looking for a chance to ask Bing Hanbai about Bing Ruolan, but the man was a loner and gave Luo Feng no opportunity to get close.

Even if I were to ask him, he probably wouldn’t respond...

Thinking about Bing Hanbai’s frosty expression, Luo Feng sighed. He dismissed it from his mind, walked to the side, sat down, and began practicing the Divine Dragon Nine Changes.

As soon as he circulated his Yuan Qi, Luo Feng immediately felt that this practice session was different from usual.

His internal Yuan Qi was gradually merging into his flesh, reforming his body and fusing with his blood and flesh to strengthen his physique. The ten awakened Four Spirit Rotations now also absorbed the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth at a much faster rate.

Training the Spiritual transformation under strong pressure truly speeds up progress!

Sensing the changes within his body, Luo Feng slowly opened his eyes. They gleamed like thunderbolts flashing through the void, incredibly bright.

The Spiritual transformation aspect of the Divine Dragon Nine Changes strengthens a Martial Artist’s physique. Once Great Accomplishment is achieved, one would reach a state of Spirit and Flesh Unity!

A Martial Artist’s Yuan Qi and their flesh and blood are normally two distinctly separate forces. However, upon reaching the state of Spirit and Flesh Unity, Yuan Qi and flesh become inseparable. Even without actively using Yuan Qi, Tempering Body Martial Artists, who pursue this state their entire lives, can exert immense power in every punch and kick.

The first stage of the Divine Dragon Nine Changes allows a Martial Artist to achieve Spirit and Flesh Unity; this Cultivation Technique is indeed extraordinary! If I could cultivate this Cultivation Technique to the ninth change...

Shaking his head, Luo Feng cast aside distracting thoughts and glanced at Bing Ruolan’s room.

Ruolan...

Muttering her name, Luo Feng withdrew his gaze. He took a deep breath, entered a state of Chi block, then circulated the Divine Dragon Nine Changes and continued his cultivation.

Time flew by, and night descended, enveloping Azure Sky City in its dark embrace.

It was a moonless night, with only a few solitary stars shining in the sky.

In the depths of the Cold Moon Marquis’s Mansion, beside a crescent-shaped lake.

Under the bamboo shadows, Yue Haitang sat with her knees drawn to her chest, absently tracing patterns on the water’s surface, her gaze lost in the reflection of a few stars in the lake.

"Haitang."

The sound of footsteps arose; a figure appeared from behind the trees. It was Cold Moon Marquis Yue Chongshan.

Yue Haitang looked startled and quickly stood up, saying somewhat flustered, "Father, how did you find me here?"

"Ever since you were young, you would come here whenever you were upset. How could I not know?"

Yue Chongshan laughed softly, glanced at Yue Haitang, and asked, "Is Luo Feng still standing guard over there?"

Yue Haitang lightly pursed her lips and nodded.

Yue Chongshan frowned slightly and said, "Aren’t you going to tell him?"

"I... I’m not ready yet. And... there hasn’t been a chance." Yue Haitang averted her gaze.

Yue Chongshan shook his head. "Make your own decision on this matter, but don’t let yourself regret it."

Yue Haitang looked somewhat embarrassed. She silently nodded, then suddenly looked up at Yue Chongshan. "Father, didn’t you dislike Luo Feng intensely?"

Yue Chongshan roared with laughter. "Initially, when I heard he was challenging Yi Tian, I thought he was just an arrogant individual. Since the Sword Heart Heaven Jade was of vital importance, I wanted to take it back. Now it seems I was wrong. Luo Feng defeated Yi Tian, and Azure Cloud Marquis died because of him, enabling our Cold Moon Marquis’s Mansion to finally hold our heads high. How could I still blame him?"

Yue Chongshan gazed at the gleaming lake, seemingly lost in thought, and continued, "This man, in merely three months, has advanced from the third level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm to the fifth level. Such progress is outstanding in the entire Canglang Dynasty; he is truly a dragon among men."

"Mm."

A faint smile touched the corners of Yue Haitang’s lips. It was the first time she had heard her father praise someone so highly.

Of course, she felt the same way.

"In addition, I must thank Luo Feng..."

Yue Chongshan looked at Yue Haitang and chuckled. "Haitang, it has been a long time since we had such a conversation."

Yue Haitang was taken aback and remained silent.

Since her mother’s abrupt departure, she had blamed Yue Chongshan for not being able to keep her mother from leaving. That was why she had left the Imperial City alone, traveling thousands of miles to study and cultivate at Changxin Academy, and had not returned home for several years.

Yue Chongshan seemed to have seen through Yue Haitang’s thoughts. He sighed and said, "It’s about time I told you. Your mother didn’t disappear; she is in the Sword Tomb."

Yue Haitang was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, "Mother is in the Sword Tomb! Where is that?"

"The Sword Tomb is a hidden faction, on par with the Nine Great Sacred Lands of the Hundred Kingdoms Territory. Because it has very few Disciples, it’s not well-known. Disciples of the Sword Tomb cannot enter the mundane world until they have achieved Great Accomplishment in the Sword Dao. Your mother was a Disciple of the Sword Tomb. She came to our Canglang Dynasty on a mission, which is how we met. When you were ten, her fellow Disciples found her, and she had to return to the Sword Tomb."

Yue Chongshan looked at Yue Haitang and said, "Before she left, she gave you the Sword Heart Heaven Jade, hoping that when you step into the True Yuan Realm, you would take the Sword Heart Heaven Jade and go to the Sword Tomb to find her."

"True Yuan Realm!"

Yue Haitang was momentarily taken aback, a bright gleam flashing in the depths of her pupils.
