Unreliable Sword Immortal.

Chapter 210 The Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique

At this moment, the weather at Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain is fine and sunny.

Lu Chao looked up at the colorful auspicious clouds in the sky, his thoughts racing.

Ye Longxing became his junior brother.

Lu Chaoding thought it was pretty outrageous.

But this is what actually happened, and the system has verified it.

Subsequently, Lu Chaoding was also able to view Ye Longxing's detailed attribute information.

His level has now reached 90, with a health of 90 billion. In terms of character design, he is not human, but a dragon-man of the ancient Ao Long clan. He has many skills, including [Black Cloud Formation], [Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Demon Sword], [Great Freedom Breaking Profound Sword Qi], [Seven Kill Sword Formation], [Dragon Qi Sword], [Dragon Transformation], [Dragon Escape], and so on.

His character information states that Ye Longxing's skills have formed a system called the "Great Freedom Sky Patrol Sword Manual," and the formation of this system suggests that he is a Grandmaster of Swordsmanship.

The title "Grandmaster of Swordsmanship" is a title, similar to Niu Daren's "Master Chef of Spiritual Energy," and can be worn. Its function is to modify and create sword cultivation skills.

As for Ye Longxing, the "Grandmaster of Swordsmanship," it's only a matter of time before he transcends the ordinary and reaches the peak.

In addition, his name is not "Ye Longxing", but "Ye Xinglong".

Of course, the name is just a code name. Lu Chaoding still prefers to call him "Ye Longxing". As for his real name, it is probably only used in formal occasions such as when using "flying sword to deliver messages".

"I don't know what this big boss was thinking, he actually joined my sect like this, and he doesn't even care about being my junior brother. But his behavior should be very wise. Now let's see how he teaches me the Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Demon Sword... This Ye Longxing is a real master who can keep things in check. If he is sincerely joining, then with him in charge, my reliable sword sect will be secure."

Lu Chaoding was very much looking forward to it. He led Ye Longxing into the mountain gate, intending to settle him at the foot of the unreliable Wanjian Mountain and give him a [Heavenly Prison] as his residence. However, Ye Longxing took the initiative to choose a scripture pavilion on the second floor of Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain as his residence. After moving in, he changed into a very simple gray robe and put on a cloth hat, looking like a monk or a Taoist priest. His image changed drastically.

As for Ye Xuntian, she did not join a reliable sword sect and remained the leader of the Xuntian Sword Sect. She soon took her leave and returned to Qianyuan Island.

After resting for a while, Ye Longxing approached Lu Chaoding. With his hands behind his back, he calmly said, "Senior brother, I will now pass on to you the Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique. This sword technique was created by me, who traversed the Seven Realms. It is based on the Sword Demon's escape technique and can search the heavens and earth, probing the void, hence the name Sky-Patrolling Demon Sword. Junior brother, you are not the Sword Demon, so you obviously cannot master my original Sky-Patrolling Demon Sword Technique. However, I can make slight modifications for you, retaining the sword's wonders. It will be sufficient to deal with Dao Cangkong!"

As he spoke, Ye Longxing stretched out his palm, and a flash of light appeared in his palm, revealing a jade tablet, which was a sword technique jade slip. This was an item similar to a skill book, which could be equipped in the secret skill slot.

Lu Chao took the jade piece and immediately saw a brief introduction to the [Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique].

=====

Secret Technique: Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique (Bound)

Star rating: Five stars

Class: Sword Immortal

Level: LV1

Special effect 1: Increases sword-riding speed by 10%.

Special effect 2: View distance is greatly increased.

Special Effect 3: Soar through the skies on your sword. You will have a true field of vision and can see invisible units, hidden coordinates, entrances to secret realms, etc. Please explore on your own to find out more.

Note: Upgrading this secret technique requires Ye Longxing to provide subsequent sword technique jade slips.

=====

"this one?"

Lu Chao frowned slightly.

To be honest, this secret technique is very versatile. It has a high chance of being effective against Daozang Kong, and it can also increase sword speed and vision range, making it very practical.

But while Lu Chaoding was satisfied, he also felt that the secret technique was too simplistic, and that if he wanted to upgrade it, he would need Ye Longxing to provide subsequent sword technique jade slips.

"Fine, since I have the Tai Chi Sword Immortal trait anyway, with multiple Secret Realm slots, combat skill slots, and ultimate skill slots, I'll just treat this Great Freedom Sky Patrol Sword Technique as a support skill."

Thinking of this, Lu Chao equipped the jade slip of the [Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique] into his skill bar, and then tried flying on the sword, finding it quite good.

Ye Longxing didn't disturb Lu Chaoding and quickly entered the Sutra Repository.

Half a day later, Lu Chaoding finished digesting the gains from the Great Universe Secret Realm, then took out the unreliable lottery tickets he had recently accumulated and started the lottery.

With the help of the Destiny Treasure Mirror, Lu Chaoding frequently drew high-level items, but there weren't many good things that caught his attention right now. In the end, after using up all the unreliable lottery tickets, only one item satisfied Lu Chaoding: a five-star [Premium Kiwi Fruit].

Consuming kiwifruit can permanently increase random abilities. Lu Chaoding had consumed it before, which increased his speed and raised his battle intent limit.

This five-star [Supreme Kiwi Fruit] is a bound item, usable only by Lu Chaoding and cannot be traded. Upon consuming it, Lu Chaoding immediately received a system notification: "Ding, consuming the Supreme Kiwi Fruit will enhance one of your abilities or grant you some permanent buffs. Calculating..."

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining a permanent buff: Base attack range +20%."

"Attack range +20%?"

Lu Chaoding quickly opened his attribute panel.

In the "Refinement Panel", he refined the [Sword Control Distance]. For a sword immortal, the sword control distance is equivalent to the attack range. Lu Chaoding's base attack range has now reached 550 meters. With the 20% boost from the kiwi fruit, his attack range can reach 660 meters. If he were to ride the Black Saber-toothed Tiger in its tank form, the attack range could reach 780 meters.

"This permanent buff is alright, percentage-based increases are stronger than fixed values..."

Lu Chao nodded, then summoned Lan E and others to discuss the arrangements for the coming days.

Lan E and the others were strategists. As sword practitioners, they knew many secrets and gave Lu Chaoding many suggestions. Some of them suggested that Lu Chaoding attack other sects in order to cultivate the unreliable Ten Thousand Swords Mountain.

Some suggested that Lu Chao should go to Tiankui Prefecture, where he could apparently run a large dungeon.

Others suggested that Lu Chaoding train his subordinates and distribute large quantities of pills to quickly raise the level of the sect's disciples.

Lu Chaoding thought their suggestions were very good and that they were all good ideas. After studying them carefully, he decided to follow Lan E's advice and go to Tianzhong Prefecture to participate in the Sword Cultivation Conference.

Incidentally, Lu Chaoding could also find an appraiser to authenticate those twenty unidentified jade slips of inheritance.

The suggestions on training sect disciples and raising their levels are not contradictory, so Lu Chaoding decided to proceed with them simultaneously.

Of course, although the plan was set, Lu Chaoding was not in a hurry to set off. For the next three days, he spent most of his time in the mission hall farming items, accumulating a large number of [Treasure Dragon Pills] and [Purple Mansion Pills] to prepare for the future plan. During the intervals between farming items, he would lead a team to attack the Great Universe Secret Realm once a day.

There's nothing left to plunder in that Great Universe Secret Realm. If Lu Chao leads the team there, they'll just continue to demolish buildings and bombard mountains.

Each time he enters the Great Universe Secret Realm, Lu Chaoding uses the [Great Freedom Sky-Patrolling Sword Technique] in the hope of finding Dao Cang Kong.

But Dao Zang Kongzhen seemed to have abandoned the Great Universe Secret Realm and never appeared again.

On this day, Lu Chaoding discovered a special item called "Jade of Inheritance" in the Dimensional Merit Shop. This item was in stock, with a total of 100 pieces. Purchasing it would bind the item to the player's account, and each piece cost 3,000 merit points.

Encountering it was a stroke of luck, so Lu Chao immediately spent his gold coins to exchange for merit points without regard to the cost. At this time, no one was competing with him, and he quickly bought all 100 [Inheritance Jade].

One hundred Jade of Inheritance are equivalent to one hundred copies of the Sword Immortal's Inheritance. Lu Chaoding was in dire need of the Sword Immortal's Inheritance, and now that he had one hundred copies, he began to level up his skills rapidly.

In less than five minutes, Lu Chaoding had used up all of the [Sword Immortal's Legacy], raising [Great Absurd Splitting Light and Shadow Sword] to LV13 and [Transcendent Greatsword Technique] to LV18!

Normally, the level cap for five-star skills is LV12, but Lu Chaoding has the characteristics of Shangqing Sword Immortal, Dayan Sword Immortal, and Daluo Sword Immortal, which can increase the level cap of secret techniques, combat techniques, and ultimate techniques. Therefore, he created the level 13 [Great Absurd Splitting Light and Shadow Sword] and the level 18 [Transcendent Greatsword Technique].

Of course, if Lu Chao's Sword Immortal trait fails, the power of the skill will be reduced back to LV12. Once the Sword Immortal trait is restored, the power will be restored.

Contrary to Lu Chaoding's expectations, after the [Extremely Absurd Splitting Sword Shadow] skill is upgraded to level 12, the number of sword shadows that can be split is fixed at 3000. After upgrading to level 13, the upper limit of the number of sword shadows does not increase, but the damage of the sword shadows is increased from the original 10% to 15%!

This is a significant enhancement. However, upgrading [Extremely Absurd Splitting Light and Shadow] further will require a lot of [Sword Immortal's Legacy]. Upgrading to level 14 requires 14 [Sword Immortal's Legacy], and upgrading to level 15 requires about 15, and so on.

As for the [Extraordinary Greatsword Technique], after the skill level breaks through the upper limit, the power increase is about the same as before. Now at level 18, when Lu Chaoding uses it, he can summon a giant sword that is 18 zhang long, and the power increases to 18 times. If it attacks buildings, catapults and other durable units, its destructive power will increase by another 18 times.

Upgrading the [Extraordinary Greatsword Technique] is quite costly. After level 12, each upgrade consumes a fixed 10 [Sword Immortal's Legacy].

"Evidence, inheritance, sudden enlightenment, willpower—there's never enough of them!"

Lu Chaoding took a look.

On this day, when Lu Chaoding went to the Great Universe Secret Realm again, he used the level 18 [Transcendent Greatsword Technique] and smashed a mountain peak with a single sword strike. After working for more than an hour, all three mountains and two peaks in the Great Universe Secret Realm were razed to the ground.

Looking at the barren and desolate Great Universe Secret Realm, Lu Chao felt incredibly satisfied.

At this very moment, tens of thousands of kilometers away from Hongchen Seven Realms Mountain, in front of the entrance to the Yudu Imperial City in Tianzhong Prefecture, an old man dressed in tattered clothes and looking like a beggar suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground.

"hateful!"

The old man squeezed out two words through gritted teeth.

He is none other than Dao Zangkong.

He received a system notification that his Great Universe Secret Realm had been razed to the ground and was no longer a celestial paradise, but had been reduced to a ruined secret realm.

"Damn it, my Great Universe Grotto-heaven is gone just like that? It would have been better if I had fallen back into my cave, but how did it become a ruined secret realm? What's the use of a ruined secret realm?"

Dao Zang Kong murmured aloud.

He had a very tough time these past few days. He had escaped the Great Universe Secret Realm seemingly easily, but Qilin Tribulation was still pursuing Blood God and Sword Zen. If he ignored them, his two strongest sword slaves would most likely be killed.

Daozang Kong naturally did not want this to happen, so he used many methods and went to great lengths to save Xue Shen and Jian Chan. The price was that their injuries became more severe, and they were reduced to beggars.

"That Lu Chaoding went too far! My only hope now is to find a safe place in the Great Yu Kingdom... I must enter the court as an official, become the Grand Preceptor, and wield great power so that I can use the strength of the Great Yu Kingdom to avenge myself!"

Daozang Kong narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the Yudu Imperial City. His goal was to become the current national teacher of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Meanwhile, outside the gates of Utsu Castle, a large celestial patrol ship was approaching.

The sails of this celestial patrol ship are painted with the image of the Qian Yuan Hall, and the people on board are Jia Zhengyi and Ren Daniu.

"This is the capital of the Great Yu Kingdom..." Jia Zhengyi gazed ahead, then took out a letter and sighed, "I wonder how to send this letter out! The Four Eccentrics, are they in charge of wealth, companionship, law, and land? Is the Emperor of Yu, oh no, the former Emperor of Yu, in the palace?"

Ren Daniu, however, remained calm and composed. He sat cross-legged at the bow of the boat with his eyes closed and said, "Since we're here, let's make the best of it and go to the palace first!"

"That's all we can do..."

Jia Zhengyi shook his head.

A moment later, Jia Zhengyi's celestial patrol ship passed through the city gate and flew into Yudu.

At this time, Lu Chaoding left his cave. He asked Lan Er and others to gather the sect masters, including Dugu Tian, ​​Wang Chengang, Jiang Youxian, Zhao Qiansun Li, the Boiling Blood Four, the Blazing Fire Four Swordsmen, and the Breaking Void Four Saints, in the gate hall square to give them a speech.

"As everyone knows, reaching level 70 unlocks the Nation War gameplay, and if more than a thousand players reach level 70, the Nation War storyline will be activated! You are very lucky. After careful consideration, the sect leader has decided to strongly support you and help you quickly reach level 70. You will soon receive a large number of pills. We hope you can use these pills as your staple food and reach level 70 as soon as possible to lead the era... Ladies, distribute the pills!"

Lu Chao waved his sleeve, and the hundred sect leaders' wives, led by Lan E, began distributing pills to everyone.

The selected players numbered exactly one hundred.

Lu Chaoding believed that he had distributed enough pills, and if they worked hard enough, they should all be able to reach level 70 in a week at most.

By then, he would be one step closer to the start of the national war storyline, and one step closer to breaking through level 90.

Breaking through level 90 and reaching level 91 means advancing to the peak realm.

The crowd cheered and jumped for joy. Lu Chaoding was also happy to see this, and he thought to himself, "If I advance to the peak realm, I should be considered a powerful figure in terms of cultivation level. It would be quite prestigious to participate in the Sword Cultivation Tournament then."
