Chapter 664: Immortal Sword Technique
If the difficulty of cultivating the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill is considered extremely high, then the difficulty of the Transformation Sword Skill is on the level of Hell.
Now that he has chosen it, Chu Feng does not regret his choice.
If he cannot cultivate it, it would still be nice to pass it on to others as an Instructor Elder in the future. As long as he imparts it twice, he will have made his investment back.
"Elder Fu, is this Transformation Sword Skill really so miraculous that it can evolve and advance other sword techniques?" Chu Feng was quite skeptical of the abilities of the Transformation Sword Skill.
"Could there be any doubt? The current Sect Master Fang Xuanling has cultivated the Transformation Sword Skill to the Ninth Level," Elder Fu said with a solemn expression, behaving as if it were a matter of grave importance.
So the Sect Master's name is Fang Xuanling.
In Chu Feng's mind, the image of the Sect Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect, who often played the peacemaker, appeared.
Back in the day, when Chu Feng was injured on the Earth Rankings stage by Elder Lei Ting, the Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect had behaved very slickly, not daring to offend an Inner Sect Elder.
It was quite unexpected that such an apparently slick person could successfully cultivate the Hell-difficulty Transformation Sword Skill.
Appearance can indeed be deceiving, and one must not presume to fathom the vastness of the sea.
No wonder the man was able to occupy the revered Sect Master seat; he was not as weak as he appeared on the surface but was instead concealing his true capabilities.
"Our Ten Thousand Sword Sect's Heaven and Earth Sword Skill is publicly acknowledged as a top swordsmanship! Sect Leader Fang has successfully evolved it, taking it to a higher level, transforming it into an Immortal Sword Technique!" Elder Fu couldn't help but show a look of admiration as he spoke of these things.
Chu Feng was shocked and blurted out, "An Immortal Sword Technique? Wasn't it said that Immortal Sword Techniques have long ceased to exist in this realm?"
In his previous life, although he was primarily devoted to the study of the Alchemy Dao.
He was still aware of some basic knowledge regarding swordsmanship.
Immortal Sword Techniques and Immortal Level Elixir Recipes are things that have been lost to history. At the very least, they are very hard to find in this realm.
Even Saint-level Elixir Recipes and Saint-level Sword Techniques and Cultivation Techniques are also very rare.
In his previous life, the Elixir recipe for the Immortal Pill that Chu Feng attained was an Immortal Level Elixir Recipe. However, when he got it, it was an incomplete recipe. This was why the Immortal Pills he refined had defects.
Even the flawed Immortal Pills were still on a level that other Alchemy Venerates could only look up to.
Because the Elixir recipe of the Immortal Pill Chu got was not only missing parts of the refining method but also had an incomplete herbs formula. These were all things that Chu Feng had completed and corrected step by step through countless trials.
In the end, he finally refined the Immortal Pill.
It was truly shocking and awe-inspiring that Sect Leader Fang managed to elevate the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill to the Immortal Level.
"Immortal Sword Techniques are indeed extremely rare in this realm. At the very least, our Ten Thousand Sword Sect doesn't have any. Only the four supreme powers each have an Immortal Sword Technique. However, our Ten Thousand Sword Sect's Heaven and Earth Sword Skill is considered the pinnacle among Saint-level Sword Techniques."
"This includes several other top swordsmanship techniques in the Collection Pavilion, which are all Saint-level Sword Techniques."
With Elder Fu explaining this way, Chu Feng understood.
The levels of swordsmanship are divided into Mortal Level, Saint Level, Immortal Level, and Divine Level, four tiers.
If the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill is elevated by one level, wouldn't that make it an Immortal Sword Technique?
"Elder Fu, according to what you're saying, Sect Leader Fang must have already cultivated the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill to the Ninth Level?" Chu Feng pressed for an answer, determined to find out.
These were originally secrets of the Sect.
But now with his status, he was indeed qualified to know many of the Sect's secrets.
Elder Fu glanced at him indifferently and nodded in confirmation, "Without cultivating to the Ninth Level, it would not be possible to evolve the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill to the Immortal Level. It seems you don't quite understand these more profound cultivation concepts. Let me tell you, any sword technique, after being cultivated to the Ninth Level, has one final layer, which is the Perfect Realm."
"If the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill is cultivated to the Perfect Realm, its power would be no less than that of an ordinary Immortal Sword Technique."
"Disciple has learned a great deal! Thank you, Elder, for your nurture!"
Chu Feng nodded his head, signifying he understood.
The doubt about the Transformation Sword Skill had long been dispelled. Now, he was filled with anticipation for the Transformation Sword Skill instead.
If he could cultivate it successfully, Chu Feng could walk sideways through this world, completely unchallenged.
The Xiong Guansui of the Extreme Cold Cave would no longer dare to act all high and mighty before him; Chu Feng could smack him flying with a single slap.
"Sit properly, cast aside all distracting thoughts, open your mind, and I will immediately pass on the Transformation Sword Skill to you!"
Elder Fu commanded Chu Feng.
Immediately, Chu Feng followed the instructions, sitting cross-legged, restraining his mind, waiting for Elder Fu to impart the Sword Skill to him.
A moment later, Elder Fu pointed to his own forehead, a green dot containing a massive amount of Runes swirling slowly, approaching Chu Feng's forehead.
"Do not resist, open your mind!"
As the words fell, Chu Feng felt a cool energy surge into the Divine Court within his forehead.
It then headed straight for his Mud Ball Palace.
"Ah... it hurts so much!"
Chu Feng couldn't help but scream in pain, but he still gritted his teeth and endured. He had experienced receiving skills a few times before.
Just endure it a bit, and it will be over.
Indeed, once the green spiritual energy had fully entered Chu Feng's Mud Ball Palace, he slowly digested them.
A massive flow of information continuously emerged.
The rolling Runes and images eventually arranged into the complete Transformation Sword Skill.
A complete Sword Skill, including mental method and moves. As for the profound mysteries of the sword skill, that could not be imparted. They had to be comprehended by oneself.
An hour later, Chu Feng had completely recovered. He also had an initial understanding of the Transformation Sword Skill.
This Sword Skill truly lived up to its reputation; its depth was almost on par with a Heavenly Book.
No wonder so many heavenly prides and devils in the Sect had suffered defeat.
Aside from being difficult to comprehend, the Transformation Sword Skill also had a flaw. It had to be cultivated to the Ninth Level to be of use. Otherwise, even if you've cultivated it to the Eighth Layer, it would be tantamount to nothing.
This point precisely made the Transformation Sword Skill Hell Level difficulty.
Exiting the Collection Pavilion, Chu Feng didn't return to his Medicine Mountain. Instead, he turned around and headed towards the Chuan Gong Hall.
The benefits of applying to become an Instructor Elder were very appealing. Chu Feng was fully confident that he could pass the assessment, and he planned to secure this qualification first.
In Ten Thousand Sword Sect, if you want to raise your status and contend with people like Elder Lei Ting and Han Sheng, you must constantly demonstrate your immense value to the Sect.
Although Elder Fu was merely an Outer Elder, his status was not inferior to an Inner Sect Elder.
Not to mention anything else, just the identity of an Instructor Elder alone carried significant weight.
An Instructor Elder not only needed to possess the strength of a Divine Soul above a Nine-star Sword God but also could continuously obtain new Sword Skills and Secret Skill cultivation qualifications. They were a veritable treasure trove of knowledge.
Plus, those disciples who received their teachings would regard them as half a master.
They could be said to command great respect and wield immense influence.
Soon, Chu Feng arrived at the Chuan Gong Hall, and some of the Inner Sect Disciples there showed a look of enmity upon seeing him enter.
These individuals were people whom Chu Feng had killed in the Gui Xu Secret Realm.
They were minions of Han Sheng and Lu Kuixi.
