I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Seeing the description of the Dikui Sword in the system, Lu Yuan had a very clear direction for his future cultivation plan.

If an ordinary person wanted to learn all 72 Disha Swords, never mind the time consumed, just the benefits and effort would not be proportional.

A cultivator’s lifespan might seem long, but it was actually not enough.

After all, there were too many cultivators who might never be able to make a breakthrough in their cultivation before their lifespan was exhausted.

Although practicing Swordsmanship could increase a cultivator’s combat strength, the increase in cultivation was very limited.

If one’s cultivation could not be improved, one’s lifespan naturally could not be increased.

Therefore, except for those geniuses, most of the Spirit Sword Sect cultivators would not learn more than one Swordsmanship. Instead, they would specialize in one.

However, Lu Yuan, who had the Innate Spirit and proficiency system, was different.

Not only could he learn any of the 72 Disha Swordsmanship in a very short time, but the subsequent cultivation would also not be troublesome.

Moreover, after learning the Dikui Sword, Lu Yuan discovered that his Nascent Soul had also undergone some changes.

At this moment, his Nascent Soul Dharma Idol was a mysterious sword diagram.

After learning Dikui Sword, an additional starlight appeared on his sword diagram. Although the starlight was still very dim, Lu Yuan could truly feel the enhancement of the sword intent.

The Dikui Sword could be added to his Lesser Celestial Eradication Sword Array Dharma Idol.

Lu Yuan speculated that after he learned all 72 Disha Swords, his Lesser Celestial Eradication Sword Array might undergo a qualitative change.

In addition to the 72 Disha Swordsmanship, the Spirit Sword Sect also had 36 Big Dipper Swordsmanship.

Since the Disha Swordsmanship could bring such an improvement, the effects of the Big Dipper Swordsmanship were needless to say.

Lu Yuan felt that he seemed to have found the direction to complete the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation.

This Spirit Sword Sect was really his treasured land!

After knowing that he would cause chaos by absorbing sword intent, Lu Yuan prepared to slightly improve his future cultivation plan.

Since the sword intent in the rubbing stone could be refilled, then he shouldn’t absorb all of it at once.

Lu Yuan was very clear about the difference between draining the pond to fish and sustainable development.

He only needed to take turns. He would take turns absorbing the 72 Disha sword intents little by little. That way, the damage to the rubbing stone would surely be very limited and it should be very difficult for ordinary people to discover this change.

After he learned all 72 Disha Swordsmanship and cultivated them to the maximum level, he then could try to enter the 36 Tiangang Cities and learn the Big Dipper sword intents.

With this thought in mind, Lu Yuan immediately started to move towards the next Disha cities.

A hundred years later.

“After waiting for a hundred years, the new round of the Heavenly Sword Trial is finally here.”

“Yes, every Heavenly Sword Trial is a grand meeting of the way of the sword. It is said that many geniuses from the thousand worlds will come here to see if they can pass the trial and become a direct disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect.”

“After all, as long as one can pass the trial, one will have the opportunity to cultivate any one of the 36 Big Dipper sword intents of the Spirit Sword Sect. Each sword intent here is left behind by the immortals of the Spirit Sword Sect. As long as one or two can be comprehended, it will not be difficult for one to become an immortal in the future.”

“That’s true, but those who take the Heavenly Sword Trial every time are like fishes trying to swim upstream. How many people can succeed? 1 don’t have any extravagant hopes of passing the trial. 1 just want to see if 1 can use this opportunity to obtain a chance to comprehend the way of the sword. After all, as long as I enter the final stage, regardless of whether I can pass it or not, I will be able to obtain a chance to comprehend the Heaven Sword. This is the most important for me.”

“Haha, 1 have the same idea as you, Fellow Daoist. As long as I can reach the last stage, I’ll be satisfied.”

Lu Yuan silently listened to their conversation while observing his surroundings.

It had been a hundred years since he came to the Spirit Sword Sect.

In these 100 years, he had walked through all 72 Disha cities and learned all the Swordsmanship in them.

Furthermore, he had cultivated all of them to the limits of his current level.

When he wanted to take another step forward, he realized that he could not cultivate the 72 Swordsmanship to the maximum level no matter what. He was stuck at the last point of proficiency and could not advance.

Lu Yuan thought about it seriously and speculated that this might be because he lacked an opportunity to break through.

After all, Swordsmanship was the path of killing. There were some things that could not be experienced just by cultivating.

Therefore, Lu Yuan chose not to continue his secluded cultivation, which was a rare occurrence. Instead, he took the initiative to walk out.

Coincidentally, the Heavenly Sword Trial of the Spirit Sword Sect had also begun.

This was a great opportunity to enter the 36 Big Dipper cities. He couldn’t learn anything more in the Disha cities anyway. He might as well use this opportunity to enter the Big Dipper cities.

With the help of Xu Wan’er, a direct disciple in the Spirit Sword Sect, Lu Yuan had long learned about the assessment content of the Heavenly Sword Trial. The first stage of the Heavenly Sword Trial was not difficult, which was the devil excursion.

After all, there was no test that could test a cultivator’s overall quality better than actual combat.

As for the second stage, it was a psychological test. It tested the cultivator’s mental state.

Only the last stage tested the cultivator’s level in the way of the sword.

The trial was not complicated, but few could pass it every year.

This was because this was a trial that only Nascent Soul Stage cultivators could participate in. It could be said to be overflowing with experts.

Just as a crowd bustled at the gathering point of the Heavenly Sword Trial for a long time, a huge Immortal Boat suddenly appeared in the sky.

The Immortal Boat arrived above everyone’s heads and finally stopped.

Not long after, a voice came from the Immortal Boat.

“There’s no need for me to explain the purpose of everyone’s visit. I’m sure everyone knows about the Heavenly Sword Trial. However, 1 have to say this first. Every year, a large number of Daoists will die in the Heavenly Sword Trial. Therefore, those whose cultivations are below the Nascent Soul Stage, please leave.”

Hearing the words from the Immortal Boat, the crowd fell silent.

They were well aware of the situation of the Heavenly Sword Trial, and those who came naturally knew what would happen next. They had long been prepared.

Seeing this, the Spirit Sword Sect’s elder on the Immortal Boat no longer wasted time.

“Since everyone has made up their minds, please board the boat.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the gathering place flew toward the Immortal Boat.

Lu Yuan followed the crowd and flew onto the huge Immortal Boat.

After everyone had arrived, the Immortal Boat rose into the sky again and flew toward a certain direction the Spirit Sword Sect.

During this process, Lu Yuan saw the situation of the upper levels of the Spirit Sword Sect for the first time.

Previously, when he was in the Disha cities, he found that the Spirit Sword Sect looked like an upside-down flying sword from afar.

In reality, it was a floating island with distinct levels.

The entire Spirit Sword Sect had a total of nine levels.

The highest ninth level was the most important place of the Spirit Sword Sect, Myriad Sword Mountain.

The eighth to sixth levels were where the Big Dipper cities were located.

The fifth to third levels were where the Disha cities were located.

The remaining first and second levels were where some descendants of the Spirit Sword Sect lived.

The Immortal Boat was heading to the sixth level of the Spirit Sword Sect.

The passage from the fifth level to the sixth level was only a small entrance that was similar to a passage between two worlds.

On the way to the trial ground, the voice of the Spirit Sword Sect’s elder once again sounded on the Immortal Boat.

“Everyone, the first stage of the Heavenly Sword Trial is located in the Forbidden Area for sword slaves on the Secure Star Planet. Your mission is very simple, and that is to bring back at least one devilish sword of a Nascent Soul Stage sword slave. Let me remind you that the sword slave Forbidden Area is where the Spirit Sword Sect exiles sword slaves. Not only do the sword slaves here have a strong devilish nature but also have strength in the way of the sword. The sword slaves can almost fight against two to three cultivators of the same level at the same time. After you enter the sword slave Forbidden Area, it’s best not to act rashly.”

After saying that, the entire Immortal Boat fell silent again.

This time, Lu Yuan could feel that the originally relaxed mood of the surrounding people had become serious after hearing these words.

After all, sword slaves were cultivators enslaved by swords. Their strength could not be underestimated..
