Chapter 1081 Shortcut
Of course, it's also because of his amazing comprehension.

The effects of the Mystic Pearl lasted, allowing his comprehension to far surpass that of ordinary people.

Without comprehension, one cannot immerse oneself in the mysteries of the Heavenly Sword Scripture.

Without sufficient mental strength, one cannot maintain a moment of enlightenment for too long.

Both are indispensable.

Chu Zhiyuan exclaimed, "Sect Leader, this Heavenly Sword Scripture is truly profound."

"Practice hard. With your talent, becoming a Venerable won't be long," Lu Wanshan advised. "Don't rush down the mountain!"

"Yes." Chu Zhiyuan nodded solemnly.

Both Lu Wanshan and Dong Muyu solemnly instructed themselves not to go down the mountain.

Chu Zhiyuan would certainly obey.

Even with clones and the Earthly Element Technique and Human Element Technique, he would still obey, prioritizing stability and not rushing things.

The most crucial thing is to elevate one's realm as quickly as possible and become a Venerable One.

Now that he has achieved the status of a Venerable One, it is as if a strong person has been reborn and is cultivating again, and he is as adept as ever.

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his hands in a fist salute: "This disciple takes his leave."

"Take this." Another streak of light flew out from Lu Wanshan's sleeve.

Chu Zhiyuan reached out and caught it; it was a small sword.

The small sword, only a foot long, had an antique appearance and its blade was not sharpened, as if it were a toy sword that had been casually forged.

But it was heavy in the hand, even three times heavier than a Qingfeng sword.

Lu Wanshan said, "Practicing swordsmanship with it will be somewhat helpful."

Chu Zhiyuan's heart skipped a beat.

He sensed a familiar aura emanating from the sword and couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Lu Wanshan nodded in satisfaction: "You are indeed highly perceptive and have a keen sense of things."

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Could this also be an avatar of the Heavenly Sword?"

Lu Wanshan shook his head: "This sword is the one I used when I was practicing swordsmanship. It is connected to my aura and naturally has been tainted by the aura of the Heavenly Sword."

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly realized.

Lu Wanshan said, "The source of the Heavenly Sword Scripture is the Heavenly Sword. This bit of aura will be of some benefit to your understanding of the Heavenly Sword Scripture."

"Thank you, Sect Leader!" Chu Zhiyuan solemnly clasped his hands in thanks.

Lu Wanshan said, "The mission of us disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect is to slay demons and evil spirits. The more experts we have, the more power we have, which is of great benefit to the people of the world."

"Yes," Chu Zhiyuan said.

Lu Wanshan said, "Of course, the stronger the disciple is, the more demons he kills, and the stronger the Heavenly Sword will become."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

The true form of the Emperor's Sword is the Heavenly Sword. Although the Heavenly Sword is no longer called the Emperor's Sword, its nature should be the same.

All of these are ways to unite the hearts and minds of the people and accumulate merit, thereby strengthening themselves.

The Heavenly Sword has always remained hidden in the void, unseen by outsiders, and ordinary disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect may not know its mysteries.

But those who ascended to heaven were almost all aware of this characteristic.

Thinking of this, he clasped his hands in a fist again: "Sect Leader, rest assured, I will cultivate diligently and descend the mountain to slay the demon as soon as possible."

“Good,” Lu Wanshan said. “I believe you will soon become a Venerable One.”

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his hands in farewell and took his leave.

When he came out of the main hall, he found Li Hongzhao waiting outside.

She wore a bright yellow silk robe, and the crown on her head had been removed, revealing her slender and graceful figure.

Li Hongzhao waved when he saw him come out.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, and together they went down the steps and walked eastward.

“The house you were assigned is next to mine, and I am next to Senior Sister Dong. The three of us live very close to each other.”

"Houses classified according to the time of entry?"

"That must be it," Li Hongzhao frowned. "So, in the last ten years, no one has entered the inner sect?"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Ten years seems like a long time to us, but it shouldn't be considered a long time here, right?"

Li Hongzhao said, "There are eight more Lesser Outer Heavens like ours. Haven't any of them ascended to immortality?"

She learned from Dong Muyu that Tianjian had a total of nine clones.

That would mean nine smaller outer heavens.

Each Lesser Outer Heaven has six illusory shadows, which means each Lesser Outer Heaven has six Emperor Swords.

Of the six imperial swords, at least one should ascend to immortality within ten years.

How could none of the nine Lesser Outer Heavens have ascended within ten years? Could it be that the other Outer Heavens have encountered problems like the Lesser Outer Heavens?
Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "That may not be the case... Let's put these things aside for now and focus on our cultivation."

Li Hongzhao said helplessly, "We've jumped into a fire pit, haven't we? Your grandfather and those who chose not to ascend, do they know anything about this?"

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "At least we have a higher realm to cultivate and become a Venerable, whose lifespan can exceed ten thousand years."

Li Hongzhao immediately perked up.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "You need to hurry up, I will soon step into the Venerable realm."

Li Hongzhao snorted and said, "I will be faster, because I have bloodlines."

Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.

Li Hongzhao said, "I cultivate the Phoenix Burning Heaven Scripture, what about you?"

"The Heavenly Sword Manual," Chu Zhiyuan said.

He couldn't help but think of Li Miaotan.

Could Li Hongzhao, like Li Miaotan, also possess the bloodline of the phoenix?
If that's really the case, then the speed of cultivation will indeed advance by leaps and bounds, at an astonishing pace.

Li Hongzhao laughed smugly, "Then you have no bloodline."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Then let's have a competition to see who can enter the Venerable Realm first."

"The loser has to listen to the winner," Li Hongzhao said.

Chu Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes.

Li Hongzhao smiled smugly and asked, "Do you dare to bet?"

"We can't just listen to it all the time, can we?" Chu Zhiyuan said. "We can't listen to everything either."

Li Hongzhao said, "How about ten years? If the two of you are acting together, then you should listen to the other."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

Li Hongzhao laughed and said, "You're bound to lose this time!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I think I can win."

Li Hongzhao snorted: "Then we'll wait and see! ...Let's go in and see what your yard looks like."

They floated along as they spoke, eventually arriving at a simple courtyard.

Chu Zhiyuan pushed open the door and went in. The interior was simply furnished and clean, clearly indicating that it was professionally cleaned.

Otherwise, the flowerbeds and leaves in this yard would all fall to the ground.

Li Hongzhao shook his head and said, "It's similar to mine. Okay, then I'll go back to cultivate. Don't bother me unless it's important... The meals are delivered by servants on time. You can order whatever you want to eat separately."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and waved his hand.

Li Hongzhao left.

Only then could Chu Zhiyuan calm down and observe the changes within the Demon Subduing Palace.

Beside the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree, six golden beads floated in the air.

Golden beads the size of longan fruits, appearing and disappearing like mist and smoke, shimmering with golden light.

Chu Zhiyuan knew that they came from the six black sparrow demons.

After the aura of the Demon-Subduing Tree destroyed the six black sparrow demons, these six golden beads appeared.

He longed to step into the Demon-Subduing Palace, but he forcibly restrained himself.

He knew that the entire Heavenly Sword Peak was under the surveillance of the Heavenly Sword in the sky.

As the master of the Heavenly Sword, Lu Wanshan could see everything clearly through the Heavenly Sword, as if he were looking at the lines on his palm.

Moreover, it's not just Tianjian Peak, but also Xiaotianwaitian and other Xiaotianwaitian.

Through the Emperor's Sword, Lu Wanshan could clearly see the situation in the palace, and even the imperial city.

Therefore, Lu Wanshan understood him well and confidently passed on the Heavenly Sword Scripture to him.

Does he know that he has the ability to teleport, to go to the Outer Heavens, or Lingyuan Peak, or the Demon Subduing Palace?
It's likely that they knew I possessed teleportation skills, which is why they repeatedly warned me not to go down the mountain.

But they may not know where they can be moved to.

Thinking of this, he decided not to leave for the time being, but to wait until he had become a Venerable.

Chu Liezhao was in his prince consort's residence when suddenly a gate of light appeared, and he stepped inside.

The next moment, he appeared in the Demon-Subduing Palace and then reached out and pressed a golden bead on it.

The golden pearl suddenly darted into his palm, and then his brow lit up.

Chu Zhiyuan's spirits lifted.

He sensed what the golden bead was.

It turns out to be merit, which can be directly converted into the power to activate the ancestral aperture.

Finally, I've found a shortcut to cultivating the Heavenly Origin Technique!
