Chapter 2637: Chapter 856: Myriad Spirits Heaven Dew and 9-Leaf Sword Grass, Sparring! (Part 2)

However, among cultivators, using Divine Sense and Divine Skills to probe others is considered a provocation and an impolite act.

Lu Changsheng glanced briefly and then sat down with Hong Lian, selecting his words carefully before asking why Xuanjian True Monarch had come to visit.

”I already know the matters City Lord Wang discussed with Absolute Sword, so I’m here to confirm some details with City Lord Wang.”

Xuanjian True Monarch said with a faint smile on his lips, looking calm and composed.

If it weren’t known that he was the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the leader of Sword Dao from Jiang Country,

no one would think he was an unparalleled sword cultivator!

”Please speak, Daoist friend.”

Lu Changsheng immediately made a gesture of invitation, aware that the other party had the intention of cooperation.

Hong Lian didn’t interrupt, keeping her role as an observer, silently watching and assessing Xuanjian True Monarch, ”the number one person” of Jiang Country.

Based on her hundred-year insights into Jiang Country, she knew that Xuanjian True Monarch was no ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Though he couldn’t be compared to the likes of reincarnated great powers like Lu Changsheng,

he belonged to the top-tier child of destiny level.

Across Jiang Country and neighboring areas, few could match him.

Like Lu Changsheng, she couldn’t see through the true nature of Xuanjian True Monarch.

She knew he must have cultivated some top-level techniques that concealed his cultivation level, mana, Qi mechanism, and heavenly secrets.

”To become an ally with City Lord Wang is something our Heavenly Sword Sect naturally desires. However, I do have a request.”

Xuanjian True Monarch didn’t exchange too many pleasantries, merely asking a few questions before getting straight to the point.

He had already made up his mind before coming here.

The decision to form an alliance.

Though this might embroil them in his conflicts, potentially leading the Heavenly Sword Sect to ruin.

But now, he Heavenly Sword Sect doesn’t have the option.

Moreover, with the great tribulation impending.

Under the great tribulation, his Heavenly Sword Sect has no room to choose.

In that case, why not wager it all on a gamble!

Li Duanxuan had grown to this point, not the type to be hesitant and overly cautious!

Additionally, during previous divination calculations, he saw armies at the gates of the Heavenly Sword Sect in the river of fate!

If he didn’t take the gamble, it might end up as he had foreseen.

”Speak unreservedly, Xuanjian Daoist.” Lu Changsheng said.

”I’d like to spar with City Lord Wang.”

Xuanjian True Monarch looked directly at Lu Changsheng, speaking earnestly.

Just as Lu Changsheng couldn’t see through him,

he couldn’t see through Lu Changsheng either.

Thus, he wished to assess the other’s strength through sparring.

And take this opportunity to experience the Divine Abilities of a mid-stage Nascent Soul giant!

”Spar?”

Lu Changsheng’s heart stirred slightly.

Unexpectedly, Xuanjian True Monarch’s request was to spar with him.

Regarding such matters, he didn’t mind and he certainly wasn’t afraid.

But he hadn’t cultivated his Nascent Soul Divine Abilities or techniques yet.

If they sparred, wouldn’t it reveal to the other party that he didn’t have the power to suppress mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators?

Using the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror... would no longer be sparring.

”Certainly.”

After pondering briefly, Lu Changsheng nodded, deciding to spar with Xuanjian True Monarch using the Nine Tribulations Sword.

With his unparalleled Sword Dao talent and the Nine-leaf Sword Technique innate to the Nine Tribulations Sword, it would be enough to intimidate him.

”In that case, City Lord can choose the time and place.”

Although Xuanjian True Monarch was eager to fight, thinking they could go directly to the Great Void, Ninth Heavenly Gang Wind Layer for a battle.

However, as a Nascent Soul True Lord, basic forms of courtesy must still be maintained.

”Three days later.”

Lu Changsheng smiled, ”Let the location be deep within the Great Dream Marsh or the Ninth Heavenly Gang Wind Layer.”

”Alright.” Xuanjian True Monarch was pleased to see Lu Changsheng agree readily, confirming the time and place, his eyes showing a trace of anticipation.

...

”Hong Lian, what do you think?”

Back at the City Lord Mansion, Lu Changsheng asked Hong Lian, wanting to know her opinion and whether she could discern the true nature of Xuanjian True Monarch earlier.

”This Xuanjian True Monarch is quite unusual, being a top-tier sword cultivator yet showing no aggressive sharpness typical of swordsmen.”

”This not only indicates the cultivation of techniques that conceal Qi mechanism and mana but also reaching a level of Returning to the Basics in Sword Dao.”

Hong Lian, donning a resplendent red gown with gold embroidery, said with graceful elegance and poised demeanor.

”Given his growth trajectory and displayed talents, if it weren’t for Jiang Country and the Heavenly Sword Sect’s lacking Spirit Vein fortune, he might have broken through mid-stage Nascent Soul already.”

In her past life as a Nascent Soul True Lord, Hong Lian knew well how the environment and fortune limited a cultivator’s breakthrough potential.

In the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain, Fourth-rank Middle Grade Spirit Veins were not abundant.

Thus, the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and resources were relatively scarce here.

After breaking through Nascent Soul, cultivators reaching the limit of the region faced obstacles.

Although breaking through from Nascent Soul early-stage to middle-stage wasn’t as demanding on Spirit Veins as breaking through Foundation Establishment to Core Formation,

not everyone found bottlenecks trivial.

Having an advanced Spiritual Vein Dojo can make breakthrough more manageable, increasing breakthrough chances.

This is why many cultivators reaching certain realms venture to broader lands, the Southern Wilderness Middle Domain.

There, not only are opportunities more plentiful, but the breakthrough limit is higher, making it easier to advance.

As Jiang Country is situated in a rather remote part of the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain, the environment is far from ideal.

Hence, Hong Lian believes that for Xuanjian True Monarch to grow to such an extent in Jiang Country is already akin to a flood dragon emerging from the depths.

However, thinking about how Jiang Country produced not only Xuanjian True Monarch but also Azure Phoenix True Monarch and her husband,

Hong Lian couldn’t help but wonder if there’s some secret opportunity in this land?

After all, she mysteriously arrived here after her own demise.

Could there be a connection between her resurrection and Jiang Country?

”Thus, if husband proposed exchanging Liang Country’s territory for Jiang Country, this Xuanjian True Monarch would surely be delighted.”

”With Liang Country’s vast lands, his Heavenly Sword Sect’s Spirit Vein and fortune would be enhanced.”

”Thus, both he and Absolute Sword True Monarch would see an increased chance of breaking through mid-stage Nascent Soul.”

Hong Lian continued to elaborate, analyzing why Xuanjian True Monarch readily agreed to the alliance.

Beyond the two of them, Liang Country’s territory could accelerate the strength of the entire Heavenly Sword Sect.

”However, rumors have it that Xuanjian True Monarch not only excels in Sword Dao but also cultivates the Way of Divination.”

”Thus his coming here and agreeing to the alliance might be due to divination revelations.”

Hong Lian added, thinking the other party might have divined auspicious signs, hence opting for an alliance.

But it could also be a calculated risk to resolve some divined crisis.

”Hmm...”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, not particularly concerned about this aspect.

If the other divined auspicious signs, it’s certainly beneficial for him too.

As for foreboding signs, seeking to resolve them through alliance...

Can this crisis be worse than the current troubles facing us?

As a Fourth Rank Divination Master, Lu Changsheng knew well that divination offers limited foresight for same-level threats.

After conversing with Hong Lian briefly, sharing moments of tenderness, Lu Changsheng then went to the backyard where the Nine-leaf Sword Grass was rooted.

He transformed the Nine-leaf Sword Grass into the Nine Tribulations Sword, then grasped this unparalleled divine weapon, quietly comprehending its power and the Nine-leaf Sword Technique.

Though he had used the Nine Tribulations Sword before, he had yet to truly familiarize himself with it.

During sparring, if he fails to restrain his strength and injures Xuanjian True Monarch, it wouldn’t be ideal.

Moreover, for this spar, Lu Changsheng lacked the intention to conclude it swiftly.

He desired a proper exchange with Jiang Country’s foremost sword Dao figure, to deepen his own Sword Dao foundation.

His Chaos Body, integrated with his son Lu Yunxiao’s Innate Sword Embryo, endowed him with exceptional Sword Dao disposition.

He had yet to tap into and unleash this disposition.

...

Three days elapsed swiftly.

During these three days, Lu Changsheng kept immersing himself in the Nine-leaf Sword Technique.

Although, the instant he grasped the Nine Tribulations Sword, he naturally comprehended this technique.

Yet, this was merely its form, a method, at most mastering its shape and power.

He needed to experience, perceive, and attempt to integrate it, to grasp its essence and character, and exert its true power.

This isn’t easy.

But to Lu Changsheng, whose Sword Dao talent was peerless, it wasn’t too challenging either.

Except three days were rather brief.

Lu Changsheng, feeling unsatisfied with the time, opened his eyes and, taking the Nine Tribulations Sword with him, stepped out of the City Lord Mansion.
