Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 182 - Nine Swords of Wind Demon

The night was deep, and moonlight, gentle as water, spilled into Chen Fan's room as he sat in the lotus position on the bed. The soft glow added a cool luster to him.

“Wait for me, Senior Sister. I’ll go to the Great Jin Imperial Court and bring you back to my side. No one can stop me!” Chen Fan's eyes flashed with determination as he gazed at the starry light outside the window.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a demon core appeared in Chen Fan’s palm. The Lin Clan’s treasury had around ten demon cores.

As a prestigious clan of a Grade-2 city with a heritage of hundreds of years and several Yuanfu realm powerhouses, their treasury surpassed that of the Tan and Liu clans.

Chen Fan promptly threw it into his mouth, and it moved into his dantian. Activating the Heaven Seizing Furnace, he immediately began refining the demon core.

Boom, boom!

Enormous amounts of vitality essence instantly flowed out from the demon core, turning into pure primeval force. It became even purer after circulating within Chen Fan and returned to his primeval vessel.

There, the rolling primeval force flowed like a torrent, forming a second layer over his primeval vessel.

Others had to absorb the primeval qi of heaven and earth or the pure primeval qi from primeval stones to gradually build the “house” further. Consequently, their progress in the Yuanfu realm was slow.

Thankfully, the Heaven Seizing Furnace resolved that issue for Chen Fan. Operated at full capacity, the furnace refined the demon cores and channeled their vital essence to fortify him, causing his cultivation to skyrocket.

A demon core was the essence cultivated by demon beasts. The thorough refinement of the furnace turned more than half into qi waste, but the remaining thirty to forty percent held significant power.

A single demon core gave Chen Fan the same cultivation boost that others got after cultivating bitterly for half a year.

Chen Fan took four hours to refine the demon core completely.

Yet, it fell short of propelling him to a breakthrough; the second layer of his primeval vessel was only about a third complete. Undeterred, he grabbed another demon core, swallowed it, and refined it.

As the night progressed, the sky turned pale.

Chen Fan opened his eyes, a brilliant light shining within.

In one night, he had refined three demon cores. The second layer of his primeval vessel was almost complete. He was now at the peak of the first level.

“Phew.”

Chen Fan took in a deep breath and exhaled forcefully. His exhale turned into a dragon-shaped cloud, cutting through the air with a sharp noise.

The exhale of a Yuanfu realm expert was akin to the slash of a sword.

Chen Fan rose to his feet, exited his room, and walked to a secluded mountain cliff surrounded by clouds and mist.

With a sword on his back, he stood quietly in place for a long time. This sword was a Grade-2 treasure named Autumn Slay. He had obtained it from the Lin Clan.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes. He drew the sword with a shing sound and swung it. Streaks of sharp sword qi silently cut the cloud mist in front in half.

Swish, swish, swish!

Another slash transformed the sword qi into wind blades, further dispersing the halved cloud mist. Chen Fan seamlessly integrated his qi, stepped forward, and swung his sword fluidly.

Strong winds sometimes howled on the top of the mountain, alternating with calm, windless moments.

Only the flashing of sword light and sweeping of sword qi could be seen.

The Nine Swords of Wind Demon was a profound tier martial skill from the Lin Clan.

Chen Fan lacked martial skills. Among the ones he had learned, the Heaven Piercing Spear couldn’t easily, while the Thunderclap Sword and the few other dirt tier martial skills were no longer useful.

As for the Undefeated King’s Fist, although it was still serviceable, as his cultivation level increased, it was starting to become obsolete since it was only a quasi-profound tier martial skill.

This Nine Swords of Wind Demon was Lin Clan’s best martial skill, rated at the middle-profound tier. This sword technique had nine styles, which happened to fulfill Chen Fan’s immediate needs.

The initial three styles were unnamed, comprising ordinary sword moves.

Wind Demon Sword Light, Wind Demon Cross Slash, Wind Demon Blood Rain, Wind Demon Grotto Heaven, Wind Demon Chaotic Dance, and Wind Demon Shocking Cloud Slash. These were the subsequent six styles that exemplified the unpredictable and sharp nature of this wind-related sword technique.

First style.

Second style.

Third style.

The sword light flowed like water as Chen Fan practiced the moves individually.

“Wind Demon Sword Light!”

Chen Fan’s wrist shook slightly. A brilliant sword light shot out from Autumn Slay, reaching a hundred steps away in a flash and landing on the cliff wall. With a bang, shattered rocks flew about.

“Wind Demon Cross Slash!”

Chen Fan used a different move, swinging the sword instantly, their sword paths crossing.

Instantly, two streaks of sword qi shot out in a cross, tearing through the air with a haunting hum reminiscent of ghosts wailing and wolves howling.

“Wind Demon Blood Rain!”

Transitioning to another technique, Chen Fan unleashed a rain of blood and a stench in the wind from the bright sword light.

“Wind Demon Grotto Heaven!”

“Wind Demon Chaotic Dance!”

“Wind Demon Shocking Cloud Slash!”

Chen Fan moved as if he were flying, continuously flicking the sword in his hand. freeweb novel. com

Streaks of immensely destructive sword qi, entwined with primeval force, shot out, tearing the air apart and leaving deep marks on the cliff wall.

After practicing the moves thrice, Chen Fan’s forehead was covered in sweat, and he panted heavily for air.

Profound tier martial skills were powerful, but their execution demanded a considerable consumption of primeval force.

If news spread that Chen Fan could practice three cycles in one go, it would undoubtedly astonish countless people.

Chen Fan sat cross-legged on the ground and took out primeval stones to restore his exhausted primeval force as he pondered.

“After I enter the inner sect, I must practice another martial skill and movement technique...” Chen Fan’s eyes shone with wisdom.

Although Zhuo Bufan, Wei Buyu, and some others knew about his Wings of Rain Dragon, flying movement techniques were rare. There would surely be people harboring ill intentions against him if news of it spread.

He needed to use it as little as possible, especially in front of others.

Even if he didn’t execute Wings of Rain Dragon, his speed was much faster than others. As such, he planned to find a profound tier movement technique to practice.

Two days swiftly passed, during which Chen Fan dedicated his nights to elevating and solidifying his cultivation. He was only a step away from entering the second-level Yuanfu realm now.

After spending another night refining three demon cores, he stopped. Instead, he revolved his cultivation technique repeatedly, circulating the primeval force in his primeval vessel to consolidate his cultivation.

Increasing one’s cultivation too quickly was not necessarily a good thing.

That was especially true in cases similar to Chen Fan, where one used demon cores to increase their cultivation quickly. Even though the Heaven Seizing Furnace’s ability was heaven-defying, it would have some minor hidden drawbacks, like not having a firm foundation. He needed to spend time consolidating his foundation.

During the daytime, Chen Fan practiced the Nine Swords of Wind Demon. He had already reached the minor mastery. When he executed it, its destructive power was extremely shocking, surpassing Undefeated King’s Fist.

On the third day, Chen Fan visited the Outer Sect Main Hall. It marked the day he and his fellow disciples would officially enter the inner sect.

Upon arrival, he found many people already gathered in small groups at the square in front of the Outer Sect Main Hall, their faces radiating excitement.
