Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1168: Chapter 630: Divine Skills (Part 2)

He unleashed a sword stroke towards the sandstorm behind him, this stroke contained his strongest ’Void-Breaking Sword Intent’.

The Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation slashed at a peculiar spot in the sandstorm, precisely the formation node of the sandstorm.

Li Yuanba didn’t know the consequence of this slash, but it was already the best option he could consider at the moment.

The Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation emitted a light hum as it slashed at the swirling golden sand.

A strange thing happened, even before the ’Void-Breaking Sword Intent’ could damage the sandstorm, just the impact of the Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation at this point of the sandstorm caused it to suddenly come to a halt.

It stayed still for less than a breath; then, all the sand suspended in the air simultaneously began to fall.

Subsequently, a vast amount of ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill information entered his mind, which was also received by the main body, Li Shiming.

A ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill rune appeared within the rune short sword in Li Yuanba’s Nascent Soul, as well as within the rune short sword in Li Shiming’s Gold Thunder Nascent Soul.

Li Yuanba realized that he had successfully passed the inheritance trial of ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ and obtained the inheritance.

However, he didn’t know how he passed, nor did he understand what the inheritance trial of ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ tested.

In fact, the inheritance trial of the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill tested the cultivator’s subtle perception of gold element.

Among the countless golden sands in the sandstorm, each grain possessed immense power, and together, their destructive power was unimaginable.

Such a powerful sandstorm was not something a Nascent Soul cultivator could withstand; even during the trial, the sandstorm had the blessing of the rules inside the Sword Cave Heaven.

It was precisely this blessing that made Li Yuanba unable to open up a distance with the sandstorm with ’A Step Across the World’, instead being quickly caught up.

This sandstorm was not to be resisted by force but required finding a weak point within it, which needed a cultivator to have an extraordinary perception of gold element energy.

This extraordinary perception of gold element energy is rare even among sword cultivators, and it is an instinct impossible to replicate.

Therefore, the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill is one of the hardest to inherit, and at least for now, no sword cultivator in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion has obtained the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill inheritance.

It was also because Li Yuanba performed so well and passed the trial so excellently that the Trial Space awarded him this supreme gold element inheritance.

While Li Yuanba was still comprehending the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill, he was directly moved out of the Trial Space by the trial’s artifact spirit.

Before he even landed, he was brought back to his own cave by Sword Elder using a method.

”Yuan Ba, it seems you’ve gained quite a bit!” Sword Elder looked at Li Yuanba with a peculiar expression.

Strands of golden sand were emerging from Li Yuanba’s body, swirling around him.

Due to the minimal amount, it was impossible to see the sandstorm-like flying sand he encountered during the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ inheritance trial.

Sword Elder recognized what this was, which is why he was so surprised.

’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill, it is a terrifyingly powerful attack-type divine skill.

The most fearsome aspect of the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill is that it does not only target the body but also attacks the soul and spirit; if ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ sweeps over the divine sense, the divine sense will be obliterated.

Attack-type divine skills are the most fearsome among divine skills.

Like the ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ divine skill, just because Li Shiming hasn’t practiced any fire-based cultivation method, the full power of ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ cannot be unleashed.

With the power of the ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ divine skill, even if the enemy’s strength is a notch higher than Li Shiming’s, they would still face considerable trouble if ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ got close.

Of course, the ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ divine skill falls short of its potential with Li Shiming; he has stronger attack methods, so ’Nanming Leaving Fire’ is reduced to the flame used in artifact refining and alchemy.

Although Li Yuanba received the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill, it doesn’t greatly impact his strength in the short term, but as ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ grows stronger, his attack methods will become increasingly diverse.

”I’ve acquired the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill, just haven’t mastered it yet!” Li Yuanba confessed to Sword Elder without reservation.

”The ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill indeed has some similarities with your ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’; try using them together, and you might enhance the power significantly!” Sword Elder advised with a smile.

Li Yuanba then realized that the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill was likely intentionally chosen by the trial’s artifact spirit, because he was using the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ treasure at that time.

Only someone at Sword Elder’s level could discern the connection between ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ and ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’.

”Thank you for your guidance, Sword Elder!” Li Yuanba gratefully bowed.

Sword Elder’s guidance saved him from many detours.

”Cultivate well; your current state doesn’t quite match your reputation!” Sword Elder waved off the courtesy and instructed.

After speaking, Sword Elder’s figure vanished, having left Li Yuanba’s cave.

Li Yuanba shook his head and returned to his Sword Room.

He took out ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’, letting it absorb the energy of Sword Cave Heaven to recover more quickly.

This time, he had exhausted all ten thousand energy-converted flying swords of ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’; it needed to reform the energy-converted flying swords.

Li Yuanba didn’t embark on realizing the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill; he left this task to his main body, Li Shiming.

For Li Shiming, comprehending the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill was merely giving one of his brains something to do, and wouldn’t interfere with his other matters.

However, if Li Yuanba were to comprehend the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill himself, he wouldn’t be able to do anything else.

The most important thing for Li Yuanba right now is not to comprehend the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ divine skill, but to enhance his cultivation level.

Having obtained such cultivation treasures like ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’, he needed to go into seclusion for cultivation.

He cast a communication technique to Tang Xue Ning, notifying her that he would be going into seclusion for a while.

Tang Xue Ning was his companion, they had undertaken several missions together, and their cooperation was very successful.

If he didn’t inform Tang Xue Ning of his seclusion, and she took on some dangerous task while he couldn’t help, it would put Tang Xue Ning at risk.

Tang Xue Ning replied with merely a ’got it’, without asking further.

Li Yuanba opened the Spiritual Pot, and a pure sword intent aura surged out of it, with the aura containing spiritual energy fluctuations.

He was afraid that leaving the Spiritual Pot open too long would cause the ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ within it to lose its spiritual essence.

So he poured out a drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ into his mouth and resealed the Spiritual Pot.

With a drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ entering his body, he felt as if a flying sword had entered within him.

That flying sword did not hurt him; it was incredibly gentle.

He started cultivating the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’, and with the help of a drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’, his cultivation of the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’ accelerated rapidly.

Once he absorbed and converted this drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’, it became nourishment for the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’.

The cultivation of the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’ showed a rapid increase with the help of this drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’.

Even though a single drop of ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ significantly boosts his cultivation, it’s important not to consume it consecutively. Even though ’Sword Transformation Spirit Liquid’ is gentle, consuming it requires a seven-day rest period between doses to avoid damaging the body.

Now he finally understood that besides hard cultivation, there are many special resources that can rapidly enhance cultivation.

Finally, he realized, besides arduous cultivation, there are many special resources that can rapidly boost one’s cultivation level.

While the main body Li Shiming has other pursuits, comprehending the ’Sanmei Divine Wind’ is just something to keep his brain occupied without hindering anything else.

Li Yuanba currently has the chance to obtain it due to this opportunity.
