Chapter 131 Gengxin Sword Qi, Liu Family in Trouble

After an incense stick has burned.

(Han Lingxiao has taught you the "Gengxin Sword Qi". Do you wish to learn it?)

"study!"

The prompt from [Destiny] came to Lu Cheng's mind, and he made his choice without hesitation.

In an instant, golden light shone brightly in my sea of ​​consciousness, and a new figure appeared.

[Gengxin Sword Qi]

[Grade: top grade on the ground level]

[Level: Beginner (1/200)]

[A sword technique that combines tangible and intangible elements, using tangible sword moves to contain intangible sword energy, making it unpredictable and incredibly powerful.]

In an instant, all the information about this "Gengxin Sword Qi" flooded into Lu Cheng's mind.

This sword technique has three major realms.

The first stage is to master tangible sword techniques and then use those techniques to generate sword energy.

When facing an enemy, no preparation is needed; sword energy can be unleashed from the sword at any time, silently, without form or trace, yet extremely sharp and difficult to defend against.

The second realm is the union of existence and non-existence, which is Han Lingxiao's current realm.

This level allows one to condense twenty-two sword energies within the lung orifices, which can be freely unleashed without the need for a sword.

The invisible sword energy that Han Lingxiao just unleashed was this.

Furthermore, even the sound of the sword's cry was deliberately emitted by Han Lingxiao to warn the other party.

In a real battle, sword energy is unleashed with a mere wave of the hand.

If one doesn't mind the inelegance, one can unleash two sword energies with a single nasal opening, making them even more difficult to defend against.

The third realm is even more mysterious.

This realm allows one to refine the sword energy within the lung orifices into twenty-two Gengxin sword seeds.

The sword seed is the sword itself; controlling qi is like wielding a sword. Wherever the sword seed goes, nothing is invincible.

Twenty-two sword seeds are equivalent to twenty-two invisible flying swords!

Imagine that during a fight, there are twenty-two invisible and inaudible swords hanging all around you.

Who wouldn't be afraid of that?

This martial arts technique is truly formidable.

Once twenty-two sword seeds are forged, calling him a "sword immortal" would not be an exaggeration.

Seeing that Lu Cheng had mastered the sword technique after only one lesson, Han Lingxiao exclaimed in admiration, "This sword technique was obtained from a notorious bandit who roamed five prefectures."

"That notorious thief practiced for over twenty years, mastering his swordsmanship before emerging from seclusion. With that skill, he took countless lives. Even I almost fell victim to him back then."

"That great thief didn't want this sword technique to be lost, so he passed it on to me."

"I first secluded myself for three months before I finally grasped the key points, and then cultivated for thirteen years before reaching the current state of 'the unity of existence and non-existence.'"

"Currently, we are still far from achieving the highest level of 'transformation between reality and illusion' and condensing the Gengxin Sword Seed."

"You've already reached this level after only watching it once. In thirteen years, you'll definitely be able to condense a sword seed."

Lu Cheng withdrew his consciousness from his sea of ​​consciousness and hurriedly said, "This is all thanks to Master's experience."

"The true teachings are conveyed in a single sentence. After more than ten years of cultivation, my master has mastered this sword technique to such a level that he can directly point to the key to the essence with a single sentence."

"If even this fails to teach you, then you are unworthy to be your master's disciple, and how dare you put 'Lingxiao Sword Sect' before your name in the future?"

"Hahaha!" Han Lingxiao burst into laughter. "How come I never noticed before that you're such a smooth talker?"

"Alright, hurry up and pack up, don't wait for them to come and kick you out, then we'll have to waste time arguing."

Lu Cheng didn't have much; he could leave with just his personal clothes and the Cold Star Halberd.

So after settling in, I began to think about how to practice the "Gengxin Sword Qi".

Although this book, "Gengxin Sword Qi," is named "Sword Qi," it actually refines metal qi.

The first stage of training involves wielding a tangible sword in order to condense the metal energy of the lungs using the sword.

Therefore, the requirements for swords are not high, so there is no need to consider the material, weight and shape like with the Cold Star Halberd.

Therefore, he randomly picked three common sword styles from the storeroom of Xijian Peak.

After he came out, he ran into Du Ruo, who had come specifically to find him, on his way back to the courtyard.

Before the mountain path, the graceful young woman stopped and bowed to Lu Cheng: "Senior Brother Lu, I have come here specifically to express my gratitude for saving my life."

After getting up, he had a bottle of pills in his hand: "I heard from my master that you have broken through to the Qi Refining Realm. This bottle of Xuan Shen Nourishing Qi Pills is something I asked my master for as a token of my gratitude. I hope you won't find it too much."

Now it was Lu Cheng's turn to be surprised: "Junior Sister Du, how did you know it was me that night?"

Upon hearing Lu Cheng's words, Du Ruo knew she hadn't made a mistake and immediately laughed, "Although you were wearing a mask, you didn't conceal your voice in the heat of the moment. Besides, I can't think of anyone else who knows the Wind and Thunder Flash and was willing to save me."

"Even if he really admits his mistake, this is still a congratulatory gift to my senior brother on his successful cultivation."

Lu Cheng nodded and accepted the pill: "In that case, thank you very much, Junior Sister."

Du Ruo nodded, glanced around Xijian Peak, and sighed, "I never imagined that the Dongyang Sect, the top martial arts sect in the prefecture, would suffer such a change. Two of its four Qi Refining Realm martial artists are gone, and my master is also gone—"

"Now, let alone suppressing the Zhenwu Army, I'm afraid even the Vajra Temple will have a hard time continuing."

Lu Cheng recalled Tu Yuan and Shen Yi's words and knew that Dongyang Sect was not comparable to Vajra Temple. Dongyang Sect lacked nothing, but it did not lack Qi Refining Realm experts: "No, if my estimate is correct, at least three people will break through to the Qi Refining Realm within three months."

Lu Cheng wasn't just making a wild guess.

Most of the old guys in the Dongyang Sect who had been stuck at the Body Refinement Perfection stage for many years were basically at a level sufficient to challenge the Qi Refining stage.

There were nearly twenty people before this chaos.

Lu Cheng judged that there were at least three because Yun Lingzi went to the Five Continents battlefield and Han Lingxiao broke out of the door.

Although the remaining Yun Huizi is still at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, his actual strength has greatly declined.

Yunxiazi herself was not good at actual combat, and her personality was too gentle. Even though she was at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, she could not suppress the Dongyang Sect.

Therefore, the Dongyang Sect must rely on sheer numbers to succeed.

Five Qi Refining Realms is the bottom line.

Upon hearing this, Du Ruo looked incredulous: "How is this possible? If it's possible to break through in three months, why didn't you break through before?"

Lu Cheng said, "Some things are not as simple as they seem on the surface."

"Dongyang County is the domain of the Dongyang Sect. As long as there are still people at the top who can hold things together, there is actually no difference between the Qi Refining Realm and the Body Refinement Perfection Realm."

Of course, there are still differences, such as Yun Chengzi's setback when facing Shen Yi.

But after all, that kind of situation only happens once every ten or twenty years.

Du Ruo seemed to understand but not quite, and only sighed without asking any further questions.

The two stood by the mountain path for a while, watching the sea of ​​clouds in the mountains, before Du Ruo finally took her leave.

Before leaving, he asked again, "Senior Brother Lu, do you have any plans to return to Yangcheng anytime soon?"

"Return to Yangcheng?" Lu Cheng shook his head.

The Lingxiao Sword Sect is about to be established, and there will definitely be a lot to do.

What I lack most right now is time; a trip back to Yangcheng would take at least a month.

"Time is of the essence, so I'd better not—" "Junior Sister Du, you asked, but what changes have occurred in Yangcheng?"

Lu Cheng realized halfway through his sentence that Du Ruo wouldn't bring up returning to Yangcheng for no reason, so there must be something going on.

Sure enough, Du Ruo hesitated for a moment before saying, "It seems that the Liu family is not doing very well recently."

Lu Cheng was startled. He suddenly remembered that he had been promised to send medicinal herbs, but he hadn't seen them yet. He had been so busy that he had forgotten about it.

He hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

Du Ruo said, "I don't know the specifics either, but it seems to be related to the medicinal herb field."
