Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 4 Hey! I have an idea

Lin Jian stroked his chin, expressionless and not giving the other party any response.

But I feel it’s okay.

The things given by a sword immortal of this level must be extraordinary, but if compared with one million...

"Teach me first."

If it is a powerful Taoist method, can it be similar to a powerful flying sword?

Chunxue secretly rubbed his teeth in hatred, knowing that this guy would not release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.

But it doesn't matter, she's just here to start the show anyway.

How could a little thing that hasn't even reached the foundation-building stage really stump me?
I just secretly wrote it down in my little notebook——

"Today I pretended to be in trouble here, and I, an ignorant monk, dared to threaten me. When I, the Dragon King, return one day, I will see whether you will feel ashamed when you think back on what you did today!"

One hundred and eight scenarios of the Dragon King's return and grand appearance flashed through his mind, and Chunxue finally regained the proper demeanor of a fallen swordsman.

"Do you know which technique is the superior alternative to the Divine Movement Technique?" The Sword Immortal had a stern face, trying to appear compromising yet with a hint of pride.

"Shrink the earth into an inch!" Lin Jian replied.

"Has your sect ever taught you this?"

"Never."

"That's good." Haruyuki nodded with a stern expression, feeling relieved. "Indeed, what I want to teach you is how to shrink the earth into an inch."

The forest is full of anticipation, it’s so great that the distance can be shortened to an inch!

"First, focus your mind and visualize." Haruyuki's voice was long and ethereal, her voice now in a teaching mood, resonating through her mind like the sound of Buddhist chants from the sky. "Choose a target, memorize every image of that location, and try to establish a stable connection with it with your mind. Remember, your target must be clearly determined; there can be no hesitation or ambiguity."

Calming the mind is the foundation of cultivating immortals. When practicing any technique or magic, the first thing to do is to calm the mind.

Lin Jian used the Zhengyang Sect's mental method to adjust his mentality and easily entered a quiet and ethereal state.

Then he fixed his eyes on the corner of the courtyard. It was easy for him to remember the features of this corner of the courtyard where he had lived for eight years.

As for using the mind to lock onto the target location, it is actually a powerful will. With the help of true qi, it is not too difficult to do this.

Lin Jian carried out the instructions step by step, while secretly summarizing his experience in his heart.

"The biggest difficulty in this process is maintaining a mental connection with the target. After all, willpower is ethereal and it's easy to lose focus... Hmm~ What am I thinking now?"

Chunxue glanced sideways at the forest and saw that he was concentrating, so he continued his instructions. "Okay then, step two, perceive the space. Use your spiritual sense to perceive the spatial structure around you, and find the weak points or spatial nodes. This will be the starting point for you to tear open the space..."

A pair of clear, foolish eyes looked over at him, and Haruyuki was stunned. "What's wrong?"

"What is a space node?"

"A space node is a space node."

"You should explain to me how to find the space node now."

“…” Haruyuki opened his mouth, then closed it again.

Open your mouth again, then close it again.

After trying hard to explain for a long time, he finally turned his head away blankly and closed his eyes in pain.

"I was careless..."

She had anticipated that she might encounter many difficulties in her teaching. After all, her master had given her a lot of headaches when teaching her. But she didn't expect that she would fail at the first step.

Isn't the ability to perceive space the foundation of a practitioner?
To her, it was like common sense, like one plus one equals two. Otherwise, how could this technique become the introductory technique she used when she first started cultivating immortals?

But right now...

"Sword Immortal, say something!" A deadly devilish voice came to my ears.

"The Sword Master is tired." How can one explain why one plus one equals two?
"That one million..." Lin Jian stared at her unkindly.

"Help me up," Haruyuki held out her delicate hand. "I can still teach you."

Haruyuki adjusted his mindset, thinking that he should adapt to the pace of ordinary people.

Since the advanced techniques are too difficult for these ordinary practitioners, it would be better to first see what level the other party is at.

"Let's change our thinking. First, let me see the secret manual of your magical movement technique."

There are thousands of techniques in the world of cultivation, and any change in the smallest detail will result in completely different results.

With her starting point, she had never encountered a situation where she needed to run on her legs, so she had no chance to use or understand this low-level technique.

If you want to give the opponent a Nine Realms Impact now, you must first understand what level the opponent is.

"Good."

Lin Jian readily agreed, then went to his room and brought out a… foot-thick manual. Haruyuki gazed at the “pile” of manuals, larger than his face, and fell into deep thought.

"Is this the secret manual of the Divine Movement Technique?"

"This is the secret manual of the magic of walking."

"Your divine movement skills are so thick!"

"Hey~ you saw it today."

After years of development in the cultivation world, the unreliable experiences of cultivating immortals based on a few words in the early years have long been swept into the dustbin of history.

Those uncertain, non-unique, and ambiguous methods and descriptions are all rejected by all practitioners.

This most basic technique has been summarized and concluded by countless predecessors, and has been described in extremely detailed and targeted ways according to the different physiques and spiritual roots of different people.

We strive to ensure that every inheritor who obtains this secret manual of magic can understand and learn it.

"Step forward." Chunxue swallowed and thought that today was really a tough day.

When I was cultivating myself, I never learned such a thick secret manual. Now, in order to teach others, I have to read this huge book. If I pass it back to my master and others and find out, won’t they die of laughter?
But she waved her hand calmly, indicating that Lin Jian should not worry about her and go on with his own business.

The manual looked thick, but much of the content was meaningless to Haruyuki.

When Lin Jian brought over the freshly prepared meal, he saw the respected Sword Immortal holding the closed "Great Work" in deep thought.

"Can you eat it?"

"I don't want to eat." Chunxue stared with her beautiful eyes.

She didn’t understand. She didn’t understand why the magic of the Lower Nine Realms was so... rigorous?
There’s nothing wrong with the “magnum opus” itself.

But this is the biggest problem.

God knows why these cultivators from the lower nine realms put so much effort into the "divine movement technique". Such a thick secret book certainly records more than just how to perform the technique itself, but more of the user's experience with it.

For example, how to optimize the speed of movement, reduce the loss of true energy, and what problems different spiritual roots and different physiques may encounter at each step in the process of cultivation and use, all have detailed descriptions.

They even come with abstract illustrations!

There is no room left for myself to show off!
What to do now?
Slightly more advanced techniques have to be cultivated slowly from the beginning, and the improvement and optimization of low-level techniques have been completely blocked by those boring predecessors.

Tired, destroy it!

Teaching others to cultivate immortality is much more difficult than cultivating immortality yourself. Why don’t you just pay back the money?

Lin Jian, who hadn't eaten for a day, was eating very delicious food. He asked with rice in his mouth, "Master Sword Immortal, what advice do you have?"

"Call me Haruyuki."

"What advice do you have, Master Haruyuki?"

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking."

After clearing the forest where he was preparing for sword practice, he walked around again, "I need to practice, Haruyuki-sama."

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking."

"Dele."

Lin Jian picked up the ordinary iron sword he had just discarded today and couldn't help but sigh, "My dear brother, you know that you are the only one in my heart..."

I have to admit that I felt a little upset when my newly bought flying sword was snatched away today, but after eating and drinking, it was another energetic day of cultivating immortals!

He had been cultivating immortality for eight years, nearly three thousand days and nights, and had never slacked off for a moment in the forest.

Breathe in and out twice a day, morning and evening, and swing the sword a thousand times.

Although I wasted most of my time today because I went out to buy the flying sword and Chunxue, I still need to practice as I should.

At worst, I can just sleep a few hours less...

The noise beside her ears did not disturb Chunxue's thoughts. After thinking it over, she was reluctant to spend her one million high-grade spirit stones. She flipped through the secret book and pondered deeply.

Finally, when he saw the words "Concentrate fully when performing this technique" in the secret manual, his eyes lit up and a big light bulb suddenly lit up above his head, "Hey! I have an idea!"

……

After practicing sword techniques a thousand times, Lin Jian was sweating all over.

After hiding in a corner and washing up casually, he returned to the house, sat on his bed and began to breathe.

As the turbid air in the body is expelled and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is taken in, time passes quietly.

Lin Jian didn't know when he fell asleep, he only knew that a strong force suddenly woke him up from his sweet dream.

"Why are you sleeping? Get up and practice!"
