Chapter 495 - 344: Gourd Sword Art_2
Chapter 495: Chapter 344: Gourd Sword Art_2
For this reason, the Five Elements Sword Light, chosen by Chen Mobai, apart from the three he naturally possesses, the remaining Geng Metal and Wu Earth are easy to start with, but difficult to master.
In order to utilize the Array Plate to generate Yuan Yang Sword Light, three Yang-attribute Flying Swords are required.
At this moment, Chen Mobai’s extensive network came into play. After calling out in the Metaphysical Class and student council groups, the people in the groups helped to ask around in their respective circles, and before long, three Rank-2 Flying Swords that met the requirements were borrowed.
Once the items were assembled, Chen Mobai immediately rented a Rank-3 Spiritual Energy Cultivation Room at the Ninth Building of Crimson Mountain.
The triangular Array Plate was held in his palm, while three Flying Swords were levitated in the air with their hilts pointing downwards under the manipulation of his Divine Sense. The extremely pure Pure Yang Spiritual Power surged from Chen Mobai’s hand, continuously infusing into the Array Plate.
The Array Plate started, brightly lighting up with yellow Spiritual Light, which ascended like a rainbow and infused into the hilt of the Flying Sword closest to Chen Mobai.
After the first Flying Sword had absorbed enough Spiritual Power, it began to hum, whereupon the Lesser Yang Sword Qi exhaled from the tip and fell back into the Array Plate below.
The Array Plate transformed and ascended another rainbow light, infusing into the hilt of the second Flying Sword. After the cycle of Middle Yang Sword Qi was complete, it was time for the Old Yang Sword Qi.
Once all three Yang Sword Qi were formed, they finally converged again on the Array Plate.
A clear and bright yellow Sword Light formed under the surround of the three Flying Swords at the center of the Array Plate.
The Sword Light was unfathomable and upright.
This was the Yuan Yang Sword Light!
Within the Immortal Sect, it could be said to be one of the highest quality Sword Lights.
Only because Chen Mobai was practicing the Pure Yang Scroll of the same origin, and had the assistance of this Three Yang Sword Formation, could he produce it so effortlessly.
After the Yuan Yang Sword Light was generated, it could be considered to condense the Sword Sha.
Chen Mobai took out the Gourd Huoyang Sha that he had prepared in advance from his storage bag.
He looked carefully at the Yellow Skin Gourd again.
When he first bought the Qi of the Land of the Dead on Rolling Thunder Mountain, he did not notice it. It was only after playing with it several times later that he realised that this gourd was not ordinary, but a Rank-2 Spirit Plant.
Only items of this grade can contain Rank-2 Evil Qi for a long time without damaging its spirituality.
If other Rank-2 Evil Qi want to be stored for a long period of time, they must be refined into Evil Qi Crystals.
For instance, the Green Wood Evil that Chen Mobai obtained before, which was not used by Xie Yuntian, was intact and nurtured in the Land of the Dead by the sect.
Since this Yellow Skin Gourd can hold Huoyang Sha, if he pays a little attention, it might be able to cultivate Yuan Yang Sword Sha.
After Chen Mobai confirmed that the external Sword Sha method deduced by the Nothingness Clan was okay, he recalled the content of the Yuan Yang Sword Secret’s Condensing Sha that he downloaded from the National Library of the Immortal Sect. Then, he used his Divine Sense to fly the Yuan Yang Sword Qi generated by the Three Yang Sword Array in front of him. After changing the direction, he slowly fell into the Yellow Skin Gourd.
Under the observation of the Void Spirit Eye, dark and red Qi flow in the gourd began to diverge after the Yuan Yang Sword Light was infused, forming a hollow vortex flow of Sha.
But Chen Mobai was keen to have Sword Light condense to Sha.
He immediately released his Divine Sense, and a leaf from the jade green parasol tree branch snapped off, transformed into an invisible blade and surged into the Yuan Yang Sword Light.
With his control, the Yuan Yang Sword Light slowly retracted its edges, and the previously avoided Huoyang Sha, like retreating tide followed by an incoming tide, rushed towards the bright yellow Sword Light in the center of the gourd.
The dark red Qi stream gradually seeped into the bright yellow Sword Light, dyeing it with a layer of rainbow light. It became even brighter and golden yellow, forming an orange-red color reminiscent of the dawn of the sunrise.
This was the Yuan Yang Sword Sha!
Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but feel joy inside.
It was truly worth spending twenty intermediate-grade Spirit Stones, as the Five Elements Sword technique pointed out and the external Sword Sha method deduced by the Nothingness Puppet was indeed feasible.
After ten days, when he had condensed all of the Gourd Huoyang Sha into Yuan Yang Sword Sha, Chen Mobai went to the Divine Tree Secret Realm to test its power.
He held the Yellow Skin Gourd in his hand, gave it a gentle shake towards a patch of forest before him. A magnificent orange light burst from the mouth of the gourd. All the places it went by, the Red-sun Spirit Trees were cut in half at the waist.
Chen Mobai swung the gourd left and right, there was not a single intact Red-sun Spirit Tree within a thousand-meter diameter around him.
Looking at the once lush forest around him that turned into a barren logging field in an instant, he felt that he had been late in practicing this gourd. If he had this thing when he just joined the Divine Wood Sect, why would he need to laboriously cut trees with a chainsaw.
After testing the power of the gourd a few times, Chen Mobai satisfiedly retracted the orange radiance.
He had already given this external Sword Sha technique a very appropriate name.
Gourd Sword Art!
He has just cultivated the Primordial Yang Sword Evil. If he has the chance in the future, he could include the Xuan Yin Sword Evil as well, by then, he will be able to hold Yin and Yang in this gourd, achieving the Two Rites Sword Evil formation of the Sword Destruction Collection.
He didn’t know if the gourd would still be able to bear it by then.
Chen Mobai weighed his options. The Yellow Skin Gourd was able to handle the current Primordial Yang Sword Evil without any problems due to its high quality material.
However, as his cultivation level becomes stronger, the power of his Sword Sha will also increase day by day. If he adds the Xuan Yin Sword Sha to form the Two Rites, the current gourd may not be sufficient.
Nevertheless, there are always more solutions than difficulties. Ming Yuhua will return by the end of the year, he can ask him if he could solve this problem from the perspective of artifact refining.
After cultivating the Gourd Sword Art, Chen Mobai tied it to his waist with a piece of hemp rope.
After all, he couldn’t expose his storage bag when exchanging skills offline, but he might need to use the Primordial Yang Sword Evil, so he simply hung it openly on his waist.
Just when he was about to leave the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai suddenly remembered something.
It had been a long time since he last tested his Spirit Root Attributes.
He had previously checked the spiritual roots of Yue Zutao and Yan Jinye, finding that the former’s Spiritual Root Value had exceeded 100. He guessed that after consuming the fruit of the Spirit Tree, he might improve his Wood Spirit Root.
However, after reaching the state of Perfection in Foundation Establishment, he had been busy with various matters and had forgotten about this.
Fortunately, while he was in the Divine Tree Secret Realm today, he remembered the Talent Tree, which is highly sensitive to changes in spiritual roots.
Chen Mobai took out his Spirit-Testing Instruments and injected a stream of spiritual power into it.
“Spiritual Root: Gold 23, Wood 46, Water 17, Fire 69, Earth 10”
Seeing this value, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After many years, he had finally turned himself into a true top-grade True Spirit Root.
His Fire Spirit Root at 69 points was due to his Five Yang Body being close to completion.
For over two years, he had been continuously using Spirit Stones to progress the Pure Yang Daoist Body, increasing his Fire Spirit Root by 6 points from the previous 63 points after having the Fire Spirit Body to 69 points now.
However, correspondingly, both his Water and Wood Spirit Roots had lost 2 points.
But his previously 26-point Wood Spirit Root has now become 46 points, which means that consuming three Spirit Tree Fruits has increased his Wood Spirit Root by 20 points.
He wasn’t exactly sure about how this increase came about, as he didn’t use the Spirit-Testing Instruments every time he consumed a fruit, thus, Chen Mobai didn’t have a clear understanding.
However, based on his many years of experience and Yue Zutao’s example, he was able to come to a rough conclusion.
Probably, after consuming the first fruit, his Wood Spirit Root increased by 10 points.
Subsequently, while consuming the second and third fruit, his body developed resistance and the increased Wood Spirit Root continued to decrease, two fruits combined only increased by 10 points.
Chen Mobai didn’t pay much attention to the exact situation, after all, his gain was real and tangible benefits.
No wonder he felt relaxed and happy practicing the techniques in the Longevity Sutra after reaching Perfection in Foundation Establishment.
He originally thought it was because his realm had improved and everything appeared simpler. It turns out it was because his Wood Spirit Root had improved.
On reaching the Talent Tree, Chen Mobai felt that he had lost out.
He had consumed the fruits three times and experienced a change in his Spirit Root Attributes three times, which could have given him three gifts from the Talent Tree, but now he only got one.
However, this feeling was only fleeting since he wasn’t eager for the Daoist techniques of the Longevity Sect given his current realm and possession of the entire knowledge system of the Immortal Sect.
He had previously received two fire attribute techniques for the two times his Fire Spirit Root had changed due to cultivating his Five Yang Body, but they were practically useless for him, as he hadn’t even mastered the C Fire Divine Thunder yet.
The reason why he came here each time his Spirit Root changed was simply out of habit.
