485 Sudden Change in Cultivation

Snow fluttered everywhere as an ordinary-looking carriage advanced. The carriage driver was a muscular man.

In fact, this carriage driver was a demon servant with strength close to a fourth Firmament demon monarch. When Meng Chuan had been wiping out the demons in the world, he had captured a large number of powerful demon servants.

“Giddy-up!” The carriage traveled through the snow.

Yang Yuan sat within the carriage. He looked out through the window, but he had other thoughts on his mind.

I’ll be participating in Archean Mountain’s entrance examination in a month. Yang Yuan pondered. Which Godfiend body formulation should I choose? He wasn’t worried about not passing the assessment.

Ever since the demons’ large-scale invasion decades ago, many Godfiends were sent out to patrol various regions in the vast world. Archean Mountain had also greatly increased their recruitment quota-recruiting 50 disciples every year instead of the original 20. They increased their recruitment quota because the next 100 to 200 years were the war’s most critical period. With the treasures and rare items obtained from the World Gap, the three major sects were able to sustain the expenditures of these new disciples for 100 to 200 years. With 50 available spots, Yang Yuan was naturally confident of being admitted into Archean Mountain. He even had hopes of achieving first place in the entrance examination.

Achieving first place is just so I don’t disappoint my family. It’s not that important. My main concern is which transcendent-grade Godfiend body I should choose. Yang Yuan carefully pondered his choice. What has aided me most in my cultivation? It’s grandfather’s guidance! Grandfather is unspokenly the strongest Godfiend in the world after cultivating for only 100 years. His future achievements will be even greater. Therefore, my best choice is to choose the same cultivation path as my grandfather—the lightning lineage. It’ll be easier for Grandpa to guide me if I cultivate the lightning lineage. If I choose another path, Grandpa’s insights towards it might not be deep or profound enough. There are only two transcendent-grade Godfiend bodies of the lightning lineage. One is the Lightning Devastator Fiend Body, and the other is the Eon Sea Fiend Body.

I naturally want to aim for a perfected Godfiend Body. The Lightning Devastator Fiend Body… its requirements for one’s willpower are terrifying. I don’t think I can achieve the perfected Nine Refinements, even if I’m given a few centuries. Although Yang Yuan was hard on himself, he was still used to enjoying a comfortable life. Therefore, the Eon Sea Fiend Body-which has a lower cultivation difficulty-suits me better.

Time had been distorted. Different regions had different time dilations.

Suddenly,

Everything-including the distorted spacetime — returned to normal. Countless snowflakes floated in the air. The white-haired Meng Chuan opened his eyes and stood up. The Bloodblades flew into his palm and vanished.

“Grandpa.” Yang Yuan walked to Lake Heart Pavilion and bowed respectfully. “Yang Yuan, I’ll give you two hours of guidance today.” Meng Chuan looked at his grandson and said, “I’ll give you pointers again in half a month. After that, go to Archean Mountain and cultivate well.”

“Yes, Grandpa.” Yang Yuan was extremely respectful.

“Show me your swordplay,” instructed Meng Chuan.

Yang Yuan immediately began demonstrating his swordplay.

Meng Chuan had recently taught him his sword technique–Three Sword Art. Three Sword Art consisted of three moves—Wave Splitting Sword, Yin-Yang Sword, and Flowing Light Sword. These were Infinite Saber’s three basic lightning lineage forms.

Yang Yuan had to execute each of these three moves 5,000 times a day! This was Meng Chuan’s request for Yang Yuan.

“However, before you have comprehended Sword Dao, follow the three sword moves I’ve given you,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “You are not allowed to modify them. Practice each move 5,000 times a day. You have to persevere.”

“I’m not allowed to change them before comprehending Sword Dao?” Yang Yuan was overjoyed.

He could tell that cultivating just this seemingly basic Three Sword Art was enough for him to reach the Realm of Dao.

Unbeknownst to him, Meng Chuan had combined these three forms-Flash Form of Lightning, Yin-Yang Form of Lightning, and Wave Splitting Forms of Lightning—to create his paramount technique, Infinite Saber.

The way he had fused these three forms could be said to be the most ingenious in human history! He had specially created the three sword moves for Yang Yuan. At Meng Chuan’s level, there wasn’t much difference between saber techniques and sword techniques. An intent could be infused into a saber art. The very same intent could also be infused into a movement technique. It could also be infused into the Bloodblade Disc.

In fact, Meng Chuan even planned on simplifying his Infinite Saber so that his juniors could learn it. After simplifying it, it would just be a weaker Black Metal Sutra ultimate technique.

…

“I’ve taught you enough today.” Meng Chuan looked at Yang Yuan, who was in a sorry state. He smiled and said, “I’ll demonstrate Three Sword Art again. Each sword move will be executed very slowly. Sense the intent carefully.”
