Chapter 1107: The Tome of the Mysterious Sword
Chapter 1107: The Tome of the Mysterious Sword
After the Mu Clan Patriarch left, Lu Xuan returned to his previous life as a Spirit Herb Master.
Aside from consolidating his Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, there weren't many other differences from his usual routine.
"It's time to visit the Hall of Scriptures and study the fundamental cultivation methods of our sect."
On this day, after examining all the spirit herbs in the Spirit Field, he suddenly had a peculiar thought.
Upon advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm, he had gained the qualification to access the profound cultivation techniques and sword techniques that the Sword Sect had collected.
The Sword Sect had numerous cultivation methods, but he had already cultivated the Celestial Zen True Art and could fully assist him in reaching the Huashen Realm. Additionally, there were many Seventh Rank Spirit Herb Light Balls waiting to be unlocked, so he didn't have high demands for cultivation methods.
However, he had long admired the Sword Sect's foundational cultivation method, the Tome of the Mysterious Sword.
It was rumored that the Tome of the Mysterious Sword encompassed almost all sword techniques in the cultivation world, and after cultivating it, one could comprehend all sword arts in the world. For a sword cultivator, it was an unparalleled treasure.
Lu Xuan was also curious, and he decided to give it a try.
Moreover, he had another purpose. By studying the Tome of the Mysterious Sword, he hoped to comprehend as many advanced sword techniques as possible, which would give him a natural advantage when cultivating high-grade sword herbs in the future, without having to start from scratch with corresponding sword techniques.
With this in mind, he went straight to the Hall of Scriptures.
The Hall of Scriptures was located in the core area of the Sword Sect, and it was heavily guarded. Even Inner Sect disciples couldn't enter it easily.
After advancing to the Nascent Soul Realm, Lu Xuan naturally had a smooth journey and arrived at the top floor of the Hall of Scriptures.
"Senior Brother, I'm Lu Xuan from the True Sword Peak, and I wish to enter the Realm of Mysterious Sword to comprehend the Tome of the Mysterious Sword." Lu Xuan said to a middle-aged swordsman with a carefree and unrestrained aura.
"It's Junior Brother Lu, congratulations on your advancement to the Nascent Soul Realm. I was tasked with guarding the Hall of Scriptures, so I couldn't attend your Nascent Soul celebration. Please forgive me." A smile appeared on the middle-aged swordsman's face.
"The Hall of Scriptures is the most important place in the Sword Sect, and it requires someone like you to guard it at all times." Lu Xuan was respectful, as the swordsman before him had reached the late Nascent Soul Realm and held a high position within the Sword Sect. He naturally wouldn't blame him for this.
"Junior Brother Lu, do you wish to cultivate the Tome of the Mysterious Sword?" The middle-aged swordsman asked with a smile.
"Yes."
"Then let me make something clear."
"The Tome of the Mysterious Sword is the Sword Sect's most precious treasure, hidden within the Realm of Mysterious Sword. It can only be summoned through special means."
"The top floor of the Hall of Scriptures is one of the entrances. Entering and exiting requires my permission." The swordsman said calmly.
"After entering the Realm of Mysterious Sword, your activities will be restricted, and you can only spend a certain amount of time observing and comprehending the Tome of the Mysterious Sword."
"The Tome of the Mysterious Sword encompasses countless sword techniques from the cultivation world. Some were created by the Sword Sect's past sword geniuses, some were collected from various celestial realms, and some were derived from the Tome itself. How much you can comprehend depends on your own fortune."
"Comprehending the Sword Tome depends on various factors, such as sword talent, divine consciousness strength, understanding, and constitution." The swordsman with the surname Qi reminded him.
"Junior Brother understands." Lu Xuan nodded solemnly.
"Good, then I'll send you there. When you can't hold on any longer, just call out to me." As the swordsman spoke, a sword light streaked across like a meteor, and a spatial rift appeared on the top floor of the Hall of Scriptures.
Deep within the rift, powerful sword intent leaked out.
Lu Xuan didn't linger and directly flew into the rift.
In a daze, he felt as if he had entered a world of sword intent.
Countless sword intents surrounded him, some mysterious and unfathomable, while others were murderous.
Lu Xuan's heart stirred, and he looked up.
The heavens seemed to unfold like an ancient tome, with numerous Sword Intents resembling unique characters engraved upon it. Various Sword Intents occasionally escaped from the book, freely dancing about.
"So this is the Tome of the Mysterious Sword? It's truly extraordinary."
Lu Xuan had already learned that the Sword Intents here were harmless before entering, and he immersed his consciousness into the Sea of Consciousness, quietly observing.
After refining the Illuminated Sword Heart and absorbing multiple Thunderous Sword Courages, even in a place filled with Sword Cultivators like the Saber Sect, he could be considered a Sword Dao genius.
Additionally, before entering, he had swallowed a Pure Jade Tea Leaf in advance, and with his powerful Divine Consciousness and improved Constitution, he didn't find the Supreme Sword Scripture overly obscure, despite its greatness.
Gradually, within the depths of his Sea of Consciousness, strands of Sword Intent appeared out of thin air, gently dancing and condensing into a Sword Intent tome.
The ancient tome resembled the Tome of the Mysterious Sword that covered the sky by about seventy to eighty percent, but it was blank, awaiting Lu Xuan's writing.
He seemed to see the infinite Sword Intents outside his body, constantly observing the Tome of the Mysterious Sword, as if gaining a profound understanding of various Sword Techniques.
One by one, Sword Intent characters appeared on the imitation tome within his Sea of Consciousness.
At first, they were only vaguely formed, but gradually, they became clearer and more vivid, leaping off the pages.
"One hundred and forty-seven Sword Intent characters, which means that this time in the Realm of Mysterious Sword, I've comprehended approximately one hundred and forty-seven Sword Techniques from the Tome of the Mysterious Sword."
Feeling his head becoming increasingly painful, Lu Xuan decided to exit temporarily.
"It's a pity that the next time I enter the Realm of Mysterious Sword, I don't know when I'll be able to contemplate and comprehend the Tome of the Mysterious Sword again."
He felt a bit regretful, and his gaze lingered unwillingly on the Tome of the Mysterious Sword above his head.
"Senior Brother Qi, I'm done. Please take me out."
He called out into the void.
Instantly, a beam of starlight-filled Sword Qi pierced through the endless void, enveloping him.
After an indeterminate amount of time in the chaos, when Lu Xuan regained consciousness, he found himself at the top of the Hall of Scriptures.
"Senior Brother, how long have I been in the Realm of Mysterious Sword?"
Lu Xuan asked curiously, his mind now clear.
"Nearly three months, which is already quite impressive among those who entered the Realm of Mysterious Sword for the first time to contemplate the Sword Scripture."
A trace of admiration flashed in the middle-aged swordsman's eyes.
"Forgive my boldness, but how many Sword Techniques did you comprehend, Junior Brother Lu?"
He asked curiously.
"One hundred and forty-seven," Lu Xuan replied immediately.
Since everything he experienced in the Realm of Mysterious Sword was under the other party's control, and he had a good understanding of his own Sword Dao talent, he didn't hide anything and answered honestly.
"Being able to achieve this on your first try is already comparable to those Sword Dao geniuses."
"I didn't expect that Junior Brother Lu, in addition to being proficient in Spirit Plant cultivation, would also have such talent in the Sword Dao."
"It's a bit of a waste if it's abandoned."
The middle-aged swordsman sighed, feeling that Lu Xuan was wasting his talent.
"Spirit Plant cultivation is much more promising than Sword Cultivation!" Lu Xuan silently refuted.
"It can't be considered a waste. After all, I've cultivated many high-level Sword Grasses, including some of the Seventh Stage."
"During the cultivation process, I needed to master the corresponding Sword Techniques. Over time, I've also developed a rather impressive skill in the Sword Dao."
He smiled and made up an excuse.
"Haha, it's my narrow-mindedness."
"Junior Brother's application of Sword Dao skills in cultivating and improving Sword Grass is perhaps far more useful than simply becoming a Sword Cultivator."
Hearing this, the middle-aged swordsman burst into laughter.
