Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================================

Arthur searched the library and even climbed the second floor before he decided on the remaining techniques he wanted.

|Defense Arts |

|[Bronze Amour: Peak Mortal Rank]|

||

|[Description: This technique uses Earth Essence Energy to create a bronze amour on the practitioner's skin.

Requirement: To practice you must have comprehended Earth Intent. ]|

...

|Sword Arts |

|[Sword Draw: Peak Mortal Rank]|

||

|[Description: The most basic ability of a swordsman is the sword drawing arts. Before the sword will spill blood it must first be drawn.

This technique focuses on speed and precision. The practitioner must have good control and incredible strength to practice.

Note: The true power of this technique can be used when the practitioner has comprehended either Speed or Strenght Intent, or best of all both.]|

...

After taking these two, Arthur looked for a shelf that contained the Body Tempering Techniques of the sect only to find out that there was no such method.

Feeling perplexed, he walked to the librarian with five techniques in his hand.

Behind a counter sat an old man who opened his eyes the minute Arthur appeared before him.

The old man said, "Show me the books you took."

Arthur nodded and places the martial arts techniques on the counter.

The old man furrowed his brows for a sect when he saw the techniques that Arthur chose.

"Five thousand contribution points for all, do you have enough?" The old man could see that Arthur was just a new disciple so he had to ask.

Arthur nodded and brought out his token.

"Okay then, show me your contribution token."

The old man held it and injected his essence energy and was surprised to see the number that was revealed.

|[ 100,000 ]|

"Hmm, so you are that kid?"

The man was not one of the elders that saw Arthur the day he climbed the tower. But as an elder of his rank, he had learned of the new genius of the sect.

The man did something and the points on Arthur's token instantly decreased by five thousand points.

He gave it back to Arthur and said, "Remember the rules of the sect. You are not allowed to teach this technique to outsiders of the sect. If found guilty of doing that you will be penalized."

"I understand," Arthur places the books in his spacial ring.

Arthur bowed to the old man and turned to leave.

"Before you leave though, a word of advice. Don't rush and be careful with your training. I will not ask you to change the books you choose or tell you that you can't master them, but act according to the situation."

"That being said, there is an extremely few number of people in the entire sect who have learned the techniques you choose and even less than have some mastery over them."

"So I would be happy if you are able to learn them all. But if you can't, you should try something more suitable for you."

"As you know it is easier to learn certain martial arts techniques if they are compatible with your martial spirit, so do act according to the situation."

The old man said a lot more than he planned to, but it shows how much he values Arthur.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior," Arthur bowed a little in thanks.

The old man nodded and closed his eyes again.

Arthur left right after and went to another location.

The old man opened his eyes once more as Arthur left.

'This junior is quite daring, but only time will tell if it was foolish confidence or actual ability...and I do hope it is the latter.'

|Weapons Hall|

Arthur went to the weapons hall and bought a sword. Even though he had something better with him, it was best to keep the sword he received from the tower hidden for now.

When he was done making preparations he left for Misty Mountains.

The Misty Mountains is a mountainous region located at a distance away from the sect. It is where disciples go to train and battle spirit beasts while also hunting for treasures.

The sect has a formation that prevents the Beasts from entering the sect and guards stationed at the boundary to keep watch.

The disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect also hunt beasts and sell their valuable parts to the sect for contribution points.

Arthur was going to first learn the battle techniques he had chosen before trying to raise his cultivation.

This was good too as martial arts is also a part of the cultivation and one can not neglect the other.

Soon Arthur entered the Misty Mountain Region and became clear as to why it was called such.

"So it turns out that the entire region is covered in mist and many would not be able to see too far."

Looking around Arthur calculated that he could not see more than ten meters ahead.

'Such a distance, a speed-type Spirit Beast can cover it in almost an instant. A cultivator will be able to train his senses to a high level if he trains here for an extended amount of time with that limitation.'

Upon thinking up to this point, Arthur asked himself.

'Should I cheat?'

PLEASE IGNORE!

This is a world where strength makes right, and the fate of those that are weak is under the whims of they that are powerful.

The weak are prey to the strong, but there is hope for the weak also. And this hope is found in Cultivation...the path of Martial Arts.

Cultivation and the practice of martial arts can be done by anyone as long as they have even the least cultivation technique.

Cultivation techniques are methods that have been devised by experts of time past that allow those that can comprehends and practice them to gain strength.

This also means that the aspiring cultivator must have an acceptable comprehension else all his effort would be for naught.

This now brings about the subject of innate talent, where some people are more talented than others on the path of cultivation.
