I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 211 Super Easterner

On the border of the Feather Kingdom, in a desolate wilderness, Tsukahara Iwa, moving like lightning, fled.

"I can't die!"

"I want to live!"

"I have not yet become a sword saint, nor have I restored my family's honor!"

A strong will to survive urged him to quicken his pace until a clear sword cry suddenly rang out above his head.

Clang~

Tsukahara Iwaichi trembled, his steps faltering slightly, as if he had heard the tolling of death's bell.

"No!"

He suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with horror, for there was nothing else in sight but the brilliant sword light that reflected the stars, descending from the sky and pressing down upon him.

Tsukahara Iwamoto instinctively raised the greatsword in his hand, and relying on his honed swordsmanship, he performed beyond his usual level in the face of life and death, unleashing the strongest strike of his life.

"Secret Sword, Ichinota..."

Click~

puff~

The Heavenly Punishment Sword, which suddenly accelerated, cut off Tsukahara Iwaichi's words with a single, deadly strike.

Immediately, the blade broke, and the head fell to the ground.

The surging blood shot into the sky like a fountain, creating a rain of blood.

After landing, Ye Qingzhou turned around and swung his sword, once again unleashing the Divine Weapon Emperor Martial Technique, slashing at the corpse of Tsukahara Iwaichi.

The fiery sword energy of the Flame Emperor Sword tore through the earth, and under the high temperature and pressure, Tsukahara Iwaichi's corpse was completely reduced to ashes.

"very good."

After doing all this, Ye Qingzhou sheathed his sword and nodded in satisfaction: "Destroy the body and cover up the evidence; there's no way to prove anything."

After returning, Ye Qingzhou went to find Huang Liwen: "Where is Fu Ping?"

"The injured have been sent to the research station for treatment and should be able to save their lives."

Holding the jade scepter in his hand, Huang Liwen was utterly bewildered: "What should we do with this? Hand it over?"

"Hand over what?"

Ye Qingzhou blinked and began to play dumb.

Upon hearing this, Huang Liwen was stunned, and his expression became somewhat panicked: "The injured person's identity is extraordinary. He must be a martial artist sent by the military. This incident is likely related to a covert war between two countries, and the focus is on the struggle for this divine artifact in my possession."

Without a doubt, the Jade Scepter is now a hot potato.

Although it is not as powerful as the Holy Sword Xuanyuan, the military strategy "Qimen Dunjia" recorded on the Jade Scepter is a treasure-level martial art from the Queen Mother of the West, which can help people break through to the Martial God realm.

Such an important treasure, whose strategic significance even surpasses that of the Xuanyuan Sword, how could the official authorities possibly give it up so easily?

Ye Qingzhou naturally understood this as well, but he had already made arrangements: "The battle just now was so chaotic that it's reasonable for the treasure to be snatched away by a master from Japan."

"what?"

Huang Liwen was dumbfounded, his expression blank as he said, "This works too?"

"Why not?"

Ye Qingzhou took the jade weapon scepter from Huang Liwen and then hid it directly into the gilded jade gourd: "Although we didn't find the Xuanyuan Sword, getting the jade weapon scepter makes the trip worthwhile."

Since the only person in the know, Tsukahara Iwaichi, is now dead, Ye Qingzhou naturally pinned the blame on him and the Japanese, knowing that the dead wouldn't defend themselves.

the next day.

"Professor Li, we've come to say goodbye."

Ye Qingzhou, accompanied by Huang Liwen, came to say goodbye to Li Yonghe, Fu Ping, and the others.

After all, the jade weapon and scepter were of great importance, and he didn't want to involve Li Yong.

"Um."

Li Yong did not ask for the reason. He was still immersed in his research on improving the bloodline of the Iron Feather Chicken. Fu Ping, on the other hand, was quite reluctant to see Ye Qingzhou and Huang Liwen leave.

When she said goodbye, her eyes were red and tears were welling up in them.

After bidding farewell to everyone, Ye Qingzhou led Huang Liwen on their journey to find the Xuanyuan Sword: "Brother Wen, can you be a little more reliable? We're looking for the Xuanyuan Sword, but you've sensed the Jade Scepter instead. That's way off..."

"Then give me back the jade weapon and scepter!"

Huang Liwen said angrily.

"No way."

Ye Qingzhou shook his head without hesitation and refused: "Once it's in my pocket, you expect me to take it out? Impossible, don't even dream about it."

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

Huang Liwen gave Ye Qingzhou a disdainful look, letting him figure it out for himself.

In the following days, the two changed course and headed west, boarding a large ship that happened to be passing by the research station and traveling upstream.

Inside the cabin, Ye Qingzhou took out a jade weapon scepter from a gilded jade gourd. It seemed that this treasure would not emit its precious light as long as it stayed by Huang Liwen's side.

Otherwise, with the seven-colored beam of light shooting into the sky and clearly visible within a hundred miles, Ye Qingzhou dared not imagine what kind of storm would be unleashed by such a divine object of this level.

Holding the jade weapon scepter, Ye Qingzhou felt a surge of profound and mysterious knowledge welling up in his mind.

It encompasses everything, including mathematics, astronomy, calendar systems, imagery, warfare, strategy, and even all sorts of incredible mental techniques.

Its content is so complex and vast that it is like a boundless ocean, and even a lifetime may not be enough to fully comprehend it.

Even if one could learn just one-tenth of it, it would be enough to become an outstanding person and roam the world freely.

At this moment, Ye Qingzhou was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, absorbing nourishment to improve his swordsmanship.

"The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan truly deserves to be the first ancient emperor in the history of the Eastern Kingdom to unify the Central Plains by force. He was able to apply the principles of the I Ching to military strategy, thus winning every battle and being invincible in every situation."

Ye Qingzhou couldn't help but admire the records in the cultivation technique.

The core of the content of "Qimen Dunjia" is the various innate divination methods, which are essentially the ultimate application of mathematical algorithms.

"What is seen is called an image; what is formed is called a vessel; what is made and used is called a method..."

Through continuous contemplation, Ye Qingzhou's spiritual world was undergoing an incredible transformation, and he also gained a clear understanding: "Qimen Dunjia is actually a mental technique that uses numerology to observe the vast world."

Mathematics is the measure of the world.

Everything contains mathematics; therefore, all phenomena and laws can be interpreted through mathematical calculations.

The innate numerology technique in "Qimen Dunjia" is such a universal "standard".

"The power of thought can actually be used in this way."

Ye Qingzhou was deeply shocked and also understood the power of "Qimen Dunjia". It directly turns a person's brain into a supercomputer by modifying the mental world!

"That's incredible."

Gradually, Ye Qingzhou became engrossed in it, and his thoughts continued to wander: "The path of martial arts initially only requires constantly honing one's physique and cultivating one's inner energy to advance to the professional level and allow one's life to undergo a transformation."

"However, if you want to advance to the level of a martial arts master and undergo a second transformation in your life, you must first strengthen your mind and will, otherwise you will go astray."

Ye Qingzhou's understanding of the path of martial arts became more profound and thorough.

"A powerful physical body must be controlled by a powerful mind. Just like a person who thinks like an ant, it is undoubtedly ridiculous and a waste of one's own talents."

"And this is the importance of cultivation techniques. But low-level cultivation techniques have their limit at the master level. Mid-level cultivation techniques have a certain probability of reaching the grandmaster level. Only high-level cultivation techniques can open the path to becoming a Martial Saint."

Deep within Ye Qingzhou's heart lay a pure and clear mind, and his flawless sword heart was crystal clear, illuminating both inside and out.

"My Heart Sword Secret Technique is a super-level mental cultivation method. If cultivated to its highest level, one can become a Martial God. But such a Martial God is obviously only limited in strength. Only a Heaven-level mental cultivation method like 'Qimen Dunjia' can be cultivated to the level of a Martial God and directly points to the Great Dao. It is a treasure-level martial art."

With the completion of his spiritual transformation, Ye Qingzhou seemed to have acquired a super brain.

At this moment, his eyes closed, but a holy light shone brightly from between his brows, causing a tremendous change in everything he saw and felt.

It was as if I could see the texture of the world, and even the connections between all things, or what could be called cause and effect.

What's even more amazing is that the Heavenly Eye Ye Qingzhou has activated at this moment is not like his original naked eye, which can only receive information through light and can only see things in front of his line of sight.

The Heavenly Eye's observation angle is all-encompassing, encompassing all directions, from top to bottom, front to back, left to right, and heaven and earth, leaving no blind spots. Wherever the divine thought reaches, it falls within the Heavenly Eye's observation range.

"With the opening of the Heavenly Eye, one can observe the ten directions as clearly as the lines on one's palm."

At this moment, Ye Qingzhou felt as if there were no secrets left in the world that could hinder his observation and exploration.

In just three days, Ye Qingzhou successfully cultivated the symbolic and numerical thinking technique in the art of Qimen Dunjia to the entry level.

Through the image-number thinking model in his mind, Ye Qingzhou can deduce and simulate the existence, structure, and even the laws of motion and change of all things in the universe. He can see through all phenomena, objects, events, images, ideas, and even laws in the world.

Once you reach the highest level of practice, you can see through the phenomenal world.

At that time, under the watchful eye of heaven, all things will perish!

Of course, Ye Qingzhou has only cultivated his technique to the entry level, and is still a long way from the "annihilation of all phenomena" realm.

Even so, he has now been able to enhance his five senses to the extreme, strengthen his ability to collect information, and open his third eye to see through the "phenomena" of all things.

"This ability seems to be able to be used to improve alchemy and forging skills..."

After testing, Ye Qingzhou was pleasantly surprised to find that because his five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch had been greatly enhanced, his alchemy and forging skills had also been directly upgraded by a level!

Ye Qingzhou has advanced from the proficiency level to the mastery level in alchemy, and now has a deeper understanding and control over the materials and properties of medicinal herbs.

The skill of forging through countless trials has also advanced from the Great Completion stage to the Perfection stage, which means that Ye Qingzhou can now forge top-grade swords!

On Earth, there are very few craftsmen who can forge top-quality weapons. Each one is a national treasure, and their status is even higher than that of martial arts masters.

Therefore, artisans who have mastered such exquisite skills are often revered by the world as "master craftsmen"!

Once you understand one principle, you will understand all principles.

The Heavenly Eye Divine Power, obtained through the secret technique of image and number thinking, has comprehensively enhanced Ye Qingzhou's strength. Even though his power and cultivation have not been strengthened in any way, if he were to face his past self from three days ago, he would definitely be able to fight three opponents and win.

"It seems that there is an 'information advantage' among martial artists as well."

In Ye Qingzhou's eyes, the combination of symbolic and numerical thinking and the Heavenly Eye was simply a super-upgraded version of the subtle and profound perception and the cicada's senses. At the same time, the transformation of his mind once again allowed Ye Qingzhou's spiritual cultivation to achieve a qualitative leap.

"Old Ye..."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Huang Liwen pushed open the door and entered. The moment he saw Ye Qingzhou, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Huh? You look so different!"

Ye Qingzhou smiled upon hearing this: "Now I can be called a super Dongguo person. I have to say, the Qimen Dunjia is indeed the first of the three styles. Its calculation techniques alone surpass 99% of the martial arts techniques in the world."

This praise comes from the heart.

After comparison, Ye Qingzhou discovered that even the Heart Sword Secret Technique passed down by the Divine Feather Sword Emperor was far inferior to a divine manual like "Qimen Dunjia" in terms of grade and power.

"Depend on!"

Huang Liwen was shocked after hearing the whole thing, and looked at Ye Qingzhou speechlessly: "Are you cheating? You've only been here for less than three days, and you've already learned it?"

"It's just the beginning."

"That's ridiculous, isn't it!"

At this moment, Huang Liwen really wanted to crack open Ye Qingzhou's skull and see how his brain was structured.

We all have the same brain, so why is yours so much better?

"Didn't you also watch 'The Thousand Faces of Dunjia'?"

Ye Qingzhou asked, puzzled.

Huang Liwen rolled his eyes, somewhat exasperated: "I only glanced at it and memorized it all, but the problem is I can't understand it..."

He was devastated by this.

"Haha~"

Ye Qingzhou laughed out loud, then comforted him, "That's right, rote memorization is useless when it comes to math. If you don't understand something, you still won't understand it."

Are you trying to comfort me?

Huang Liwen glared at Ye Qingzhou, annoyed. "I think you're clearly mocking me; your laughter hasn't stopped!"

"Cough cough, how could that be? You are my dearest friend and family."

Ye Qingzhou then asked, "By the way, did you sense the Xuanyuan Sword?"

"no."

"What about the other eight mantras and the nine-syllable mudra?"

"I did sense that, and one of them was the strongest, right in this direction."

Huang Liwen pointed his finger to the northwest.

"Sigh, even if we can't get the Xuanyuan Sword, collecting some interest is better than nothing."

"Damn it, you make it sound like the Nine Syllable Mantra Seal is worthless!"

"Haha, don't worry about the details."

…………

The Kingdom of Rakshasa Women, Flower Stream City.

The stream flows down from the high mountain, and when the autumn wind blows, all the flowers fall, and the colorful petals float on the water, forming a beautiful picture.

"This scenery is truly breathtaking!"

Huang Liwen took out his phone and snapped a bunch of photos, already thinking that he must bring his loved one here for a romantic getaway when he has time.

"It is indeed very beautiful."

However, as soon as the ship docked, an indescribable stench hit us.

"Holy crap, it stinks!"

Huang Liwen's face was contorted, and he was so choked by the fumes that snot and tears streamed down his face.

Ye Qingzhou wasn't much better off; he could only hold his breath and try to block out the various harmful substances in the air.

Ye Qingzhou stepped onto the dock and looked at the dense crowd of pedestrians, marveling at the commercial atmosphere of the place: "This city smells so bad, yet it's still bustling."

Huajian City is a border city of the Rakshasa Kingdom, so there are many tourists from various ethnic groups. However, the most common people coming and going on the streets are the Rakshasa people.

In the Kingdom of Rakshasa Women, women are revered. The male Rakshasa people in the kingdom are ugly in appearance. They not only have faces like demons, but their skin is also black, indigo, and there is even an environmentally friendly variety that is green all over. They are ugly in all sorts of ways.

"Holy crap, no wonder the Queen of the Rakshasa Kingdom wants to marry a human. These Rakshasa are so ugly! Seeing them makes me so sick I can't eat."

Huang Liwen pinched the tip of his nose and said in a muffled voice.

Fortunately, he spoke the language of the Eastern Pole, so he wasn't afraid of being overheard by the Rakshasa people around him.

Ye Qingzhou shook his head and criticized, "Brother Wen, can you please stop judging people by their appearance?"

No sooner had they finished speaking than the two saw male Rakshasa people squatting down to relieve themselves on both sides of the road. Their nonchalant attitude greatly shocked Ye Qingzhou and Huang Liwen.

"Holy shit..."

Huang Liwen quickly covered his eyes.

Ye Qingzhou was speechless: "Okay, they really can make people so disgusted that they can't eat."

The country before me is extremely backward in its social structure; some people even defecate in the street, displaying a complete lack of manners and shame. Yet, this country's military strength is terrifyingly high, creating a strong sense of incongruity.

It turns out that the words "powerful" and "backward" can actually coexist.

The entire dock area can only be described as "dirty, messy, and chaotic." There are no roads at all, only blackish-blue mud mixed with human and animal excrement.

Ye Qingzhou dared not step on it, so he quickly grabbed Huang Liwen, used his swift movement to leave the dock area that was emitting a strange smell.

As we approached the city gate, the road conditions improved slightly; at least the "muddy road" had become a "gravel road," and the stench in the air was overpowered by the fragrant flowers.

Huang Liwen was finally able to breathe deeply: "Damn, I almost suffocated just now."

At this moment, both of them felt as if they had come from civilization to the wilderness, especially Huang Liwen, who was left with a deep psychological shadow and had completely given up the idea of ​​bringing his beloved girl here.

If he could, he would never set foot in this wretched place again in his life.

The queue to enter the city was very long, so Ye Qingzhou and Huang Liwen had no choice but to wait in line obediently.

The guards on duty stopped the two: "Entry fee, one knife coin."

"So expensive!"

Huang Liwen grinned, thinking, "A ticket that costs 100,000 yuan? That's highway robbery!"

Ye Qingzhou didn't seem to care much. He casually took out two knife coins and handed them to the guard.

After all, you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. One of the Nine Syllable Mantra Seals is right here in this city. If you can get it for a little money, it's definitely a good deal.
