Chapter 64: The Qingyang Technique
Chapter 64: The Qingyang Technique
In the backyard.
Gu Qingfeng stood as immovable as a rock.
Suddenly.
The sun rose in the east.
Dawn's light pierced the dim sky.
Gu Qingfeng immediately adjusted his breathing, visualizing the essence of the sun. With each breath, a scorching force surged into his body, flowing through his meridians and flesh. A faint burning sensation arose but quickly dissipated.
A moment later.
Gu Qingfeng moved his body and exhaled.
"Whoosh!"
The exhalation was like a thunderclap, a white light breaking through the air.
Immediately after.
Gu Qingfeng checked his attribute panel.
The Qingyang Technique had clearly reached the beginner level.
...
Qingyang Technique (First Level: Beginner)
...
"The Qingyang Technique truly lives up to its reputation as the Qingyang Sect's ultimate technique. Its unique cultivation method is truly profound and extraordinary!"
Gu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze from the attribute panel, feeling the changes within himself. A look of amazement appeared on his face.
The Qingyang Technique was unlike other martial arts. It emphasized visualizing the essence of the sun, refining the first rays of sunlight to purify and strengthen one's blood and physique.
This cultivation method imbued the blood with a powerful, yang-infused energy, significantly enhancing a martial artist's strength.
This is why.
Once the Qingyang Technique is perfected, it can rival the power of a Half-Step Marrow Washing practitioner.
It must be said.
This martial art is indeed incredibly powerful.
However.
The difficulty of cultivating the Qingyang Technique is also very high.
The first step, visualizing the essence of the sun and drawing yang energy into the body, is enough to deter ninety-nine percent of martial artists.
This step requires a high level of insight.
In the past, it would have been difficult for Gu Qingfeng to achieve the beginner level.
But as a master of the Organ Refinement stage, no matter how profound the Qingyang Technique was, it remained an upper-level martial art.
Thus.
Gu Qingfeng was able to reach the beginner level in such a short time.
The Qingyang Technique is divided into nine levels.
The first level involves the Skin Refinement stage, the second to fifth levels involve the Blood Refinement stage, and the sixth to ninth levels involve the Bone Refinement stage.
Now.
Gu Qingfeng had reached the beginner level of the first stage.
Although this step could initially draw yang energy into the body, the energy was too weak to bring about any significant changes.
But Gu Qingfeng was not in a hurry.
Cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight.
With time, the Qingyang Technique would eventually reach its full potential.
---
Three days later.
Shi Kai visited again.
He handed a black box to Gu Qingfeng and said solemnly, "The Sword Casting Sect has successfully forged the divine weapon you requested, Lord Gu."
"Excellent!"
Gu Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and he immediately opened the box. Inside lay a long sword with a black scabbard.
He then gripped the hilt and drew the sword.
"Swish!"
The sword was drawn, and a cold, clear light like autumn water emerged. Although the blade was slightly dark yellow, it exuded an irresistible sharpness.
Gu Qingfeng gently caressed the blade, feeling its sharpness. His skin, which could defend against attacks from Marrow Washing practitioners, was naturally not something the blade could cut.
But even so.
Gu Qingfeng could tell the sword was extraordinary.
"This sword is infused with Blood Transformation Stone, which can hold a martial artist's blood and qi. Lord Gu, you may try infusing your own blood and qi into the blade."
Shi Kai reminded him.
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng tried to channel his blood and qi into the sword. A torrent of blood energy surged like a river, its terrifying power causing Shi Kai to pale and tremble uncontrollably.
Indeed.
It was sheer terror.
In Shi Kai’s eyes, Gu Qingfeng now resembled a primordial beast, his overwhelming blood qi far beyond what a normal person could possess.
Gu Qingfeng ignored Shi Kai’s shock, his entire focus on the longsword.
The moment the blood qi fused with the blade, the sword trembled violently, as if all the latent power within it had erupted.
This time.
When Gu Qingfeng sliced his palm with the blade, the skin that could normally withstand the attacks of a Bone Tempering Realm warrior was instantly torn open.
Moments later.
The damaged skin healed, leaving only a faint scar.
"Excellent sword!" Gu Qingfeng exclaimed, thoroughly satisfied with the weapon.
His current defenses were formidable, and if this sword could wound him, it could certainly harm other Viscera Refining Realm warriors.
In this way.
Gu Qingfeng’s strength would be significantly enhanced.
Initially.
Gu Qingfeng had only wanted the Sword Casting Sect to forge a suitable weapon to maximize the power of the Seven Slaughter Blade Technique.
But to his surprise.
The Sword Casting Sect had given him a pleasant surprise.
At that moment, the terrifying blood qi settled once more. As Shi Kai wiped the sweat from his forehead, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of pride when he heard Gu Qingfeng’s words.
"In our sect, we have always specialized in forging weapons. Many so-called divine weapons in the world are merely pseudo-divine weapons and do not qualify as true divine weapons."
"But the weapon in Lord Gu’s hands is different. It is a true divine weapon!"
"A divine weapon can adapt to the strength of its wielder. The more powerful the wielder, the greater the weapon’s potential!"
"Unfortunately, true divine weapons are extremely difficult to create. Throughout our sect’s history, the number of true divine weapons forged can be counted on one hand."
"This time, we succeeded thanks to the materials provided by Lord Gu. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to forge such a weapon!"
As he spoke, Shi Kai’s eyes lingered on the longsword, filled with envy.
Who wouldn’t covet a true divine weapon?
When the divine weapon was completed, Shi Kai had an impulse to claim it for himself. But the thought of the Gu family’s existence quickly suppressed this desire.
A divine weapon, no matter how powerful, must be claimed with caution.
To offend the Gu family over a mere divine weapon would mean certain destruction for the entire Sword Casting Sect if the truth ever came to light.
Shi Kai had no doubt about this.
After all, Lord Gu was not a man known for his mercy. His hands were stained with blood, and even if the Sword Casting Sect had ten times the courage, Shi Kai would never dare to appropriate the divine weapon.
On the contrary.
The successful forging of the divine weapon would please the Gu family, benefiting the Sword Casting Sect in every way.
At that moment.
Gu Qingfeng sheathed the sword, placed it in a box, and then turned his gaze to Shi Kai.
"Headmaster Shi, I am very pleased with the divine weapon you have forged. The ten thousand taels of silver I initially offered seem insufficient now.
If you have any needs, feel free to speak up. As long as they are reasonable, I will agree to them!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Kai knew he had made the right bet.
So.
After a moment’s consideration, he articulated his request.
