Chapter 83: How to complete the ancestral return if one did not cultivate 10,000 swords?
The Essence Energy Nurturing Pill was a precious pill that could increase one’s cultivation at the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm.
As the pill entered his stomach, Han Muye trembled.
This Essence Energy Nurturing Pill contained rich spiritual energy and vigorous blood energy.
The depletion of spiritual energy through the meridians was clearly much lower than at the previous ninth-grade apt.i.tude.
The originally full spiritual energy in his dantian began to rise, and a feeling of fullness appeared.
His spiritual energy cultivation level began to slowly increase.
As his blood Qi power gathered, a faint blood-colored iron bull phantom rushed out from behind Han Muye.
After discovering that the Iron Bull Strength was not an ordinary body-tempering technique, Han Muye had already focused on practising this technique.
At this moment, after he swallowed a pill, his Iron Bull Strength directly made a breakthrough.
Taking advantage of the situation, Han Muye swallowed the remaining pills without hesitation.
If it were an outsider, they would definitely not dare to swallow five Essence Energy Nurturing Pills at once.
Han Muye only dared to swallow five pills because his dantian was vast and he had enough sword intent and sword Qi to control his body.
It took him nearly a day to digest the medicinal power of the five pills.
It was not until the next morning that the medicinal effect completely dissipated.
At this moment, there were nine green ox phantoms floating behind him!
Power of Nine Bulls!
This was the extreme of body tempering at the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm.
It was also because of a cultivation technique like the Iron Bull Strength that he could condense the Power of Nine Bulls at the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm.
For other body-tempering cultivation techniques, it would be good enough if they could at most have the strength of five bulls.
With the Power of Nine Bulls condensed, Han Muye felt the blood Qi in his body surge. Every time he raised his hand, a surging power surged.
Now that he had cultivated the Iron Bull Strength to this level, it would depend on how he deduced it further.
For the time being, Han Muye did not have the time to deduce Iron Bull Strength.
Zhao Pu had once asked him to investigate the secret place where he had discovered the Iron Bull Strength. This time, he had been delayed by the chaos caused by the demons. He did not know when he could go.
It was a surprise that his body tempering cultivation had increased to the ninth level of the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm.
His spiritual energy cultivation had only reached the sixth level, but it already made Han Muye a little depressed.
Five Essence Energy Nurting Pills should be able to increase one’s cultivation by five levels.
Previously, he was at the third level of the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm. It was not a problem for him to directly advance to the eighth level.
But he had overlooked two things.
One was that he did not cultivate a good enough cultivation technique.
Previously, with his ninth-grade apt.i.tude, there were not many cultivation techniques in the Demonstration Building that he could cultivate.
Of course, even if he cultivated a good cultivation technique, five Essence Energy Nurturing Pills would not be able to directly increase his cultivation level to the eighth level of the Essence Energy Cultivation Realm.
“My dantian is too vast. It turns out that it also gives me a headache…”
With his divine sense, he saw spiritual energy surging in his dantian.
Such a vast dantian was comparable to an ordinary early-stage Qi Condensation Realm.
Because his dantian was vast, the five Essence Energy Nurturing Pills only increased his cultivation by three levels.
Moreover, even if he had the Essence Energy Nurturing Pill next time, he might not be able to advance to the seventh level of Essence Cultivation.
“If I can have the formula for the Essence Energy Nurturing Pill, I can refine it myself and won’t have to worry anymore.”
Han Muye’s eyes lit up as he muttered to himself.
He was used to consuming supreme-grade Cloud Qi Pills, so he had high requirements for the quality of the pills.
He wondered if Elder Su Liang had the pill formula for the Essence Energy Nurturing Pill.
Han Muye was prepared to make a trip.
At the same time, he wanted to find out about the situation outside the Nine Mystic Mountain.
Although Elder Su Liang did not care about anything, he was still an elder after all. He more or less knew the situation in the sect.
When he went to the small courtyard for his morning exercise, he saw Huang Six dressed in a tight suit. He was waving his fists and kicking his legs excitedly.
It seemed that in order to stay with Lu Qingping forever, Huang Six was prepared to train well and strive to live longer.
Han Muye held a long sword in his hand, the sword light shining everywhere.
His physical strength had increased to the peak of the Essence Cultivation Realm, and his control over sword techniques was even better than before.
Without mobilizing the spiritual energy in his dantian, his sword moves were still lethal.
“Brother Han, you should go to the Demonstration Building to find a sword technique to practice.”
Turning to look at Han Muye’s messy sword moves, Huang Six shook his head and said, “Your comprehension and judgement are so good. Why did you cultivate this sword technique to such a lousy standard?”
‘Lousy?’
Han Muye opened his mouth but didn’t say anything.
Every move was at least a disa.s.sembled move from the Three Mystic Sword Technique!
Han Muye couldn’t be bothered with Huang Six. He waved his two swords in the small courtyard, and sword light scattered.
“I think Sister Ping’s sword technique is better.”
Huang Six, who had been forced into a corner by the sword light, muttered to himself. He tugged at his clothes and walked back to the Sword Pavilion.
After he left, Han Muye’s sword light became colder.
Every move and stance was filled with mystery.
Usually, he would only use the opening move of the Three Mystic Sword Technique, followed by the killing move of the outer sect sword technique.
Sometimes, his sword technique would change midway to three mystic or four mystic techniques.
Naturally, Huang Six could not understand such a sword move.
“The next time I meet Master Mo Yuan, he will definitely be very surprised.”
Han Muye, who had sheathed his sword and stood quietly, muttered softly.
“Ancestral—Return—of—10,000—Swords—”
How could he complete the ancestral return if he did not cultivate 10,000 swords?
Mo Yuan had been in the outer sect for 200 years and had almost completely mastered the outer sect sword techniques of the Nine Mystic Sword Sect, condensing them into Ancestral Return of 10,000 Swords.
It was the condensation of his Sword Dao cultivation.
Han Muye could comprehend more sword techniques than Mo Yuan.
He could cultivate the Nine Mystic Sword Sect’s outer sect sword technique, inner sect sword technique, and even those secret sword techniques above the Three Mystic.
It was not only the Nine Mystic Sword Sect’s techniques. He had also come into contact with various sword techniques outside the Nine Mystic Mountain.
If one day he could really comprehend 10,000 swords and condense them into one, then his sword technique would probably really be able to kill a Heaven Realm expert!
Without the Sword Pavilion Elder around, Lin Shen went down the mountain to kill demons.
The Sword Pavilion fell silent.
“Sigh, I didn’t feel it when I sat here alone in the past. Now, it’s really a little uncomfortable.”
At the door, Lu Gao was sighing.
Huang Six slammed the table and was about to curse when Lu Gao stood up.
“The Sword Pavilion is an important place. Outsiders are not allowed to enter—”
Lu Gao shouted at the top of his voice.
At the door, an old voice sounded, “Little friend, please report that the Cao family’s Cao Anchun is here to deliver the sword.”
Cao Anchun?
The head of the Cao family?
Han Muye and Huang Six were stunned. They looked at each other and stood up.
The two of them walked out of the Sword Pavilion and saw an old man with white hair and a white beard standing at the bottom of the nine stone steps. He was wearing a linen shirt.
Behind the old man, Cao Pei, who had come to deliver the sword last time, led a group of green-robed disciples. They bowed and held wooden boxes.
Beside the old man, a young girl in a light red outfit and a young man with a green robe and a golden crown stood side by side.
Han Muye had seen this girl before.
In the memory of the supreme-grade spiritual artifact, Ice Break.
This was a girl with excellent talent in refining weapons.
“Master Cao, it’s too troublesome for you to personally deliver the sword.” Huang Six smiled and quickly walked down the stone steps to welcome Cao Anchun.
The Cao family was a family of blacksmiths and had been refining weapons for the Nine Mystic Sword Sect for many years.
The head of the Cao family, Cao Anchun, was a famous blacksmith expert. He had refined no less than ten spiritual weapons.
“Elder is not here today. Otherwise, he would definitely drink and chat with Patriarch Cao.” Huang Six leaned forward and bowed to Cao Anchun with a smile.
When such a blacksmith came to the Nine Mystic Mountain, even the elders of the Sword Pavilion treated him respectfully.
“I’m not here to look for Senior Brother Gao.” Cao Anchun shook his head and glanced at Cao Pei behind him.
Cao Pei looked up at Han Muye, who was standing on the stone steps.
“The person who returned my Cao family’s sword last time was this young friend?” Cao Anchun looked at Han Muye with a calm expression.
Huang Six stiffened at his words.
The boys and girls standing beside Cao Anchun stared up at Han Muye.
“Patriarch Cao, I’m in charge of receiving the sword. A sword that doesn’t pa.s.s the standard can’t enter the Sword Pavilion.”
“Whether it’s the Cao family or the Liu family.”
Han Muye’s expression did not change as he spoke softly.
“Hmph! You’re a mere Sword Caretaker and you think you’re qualified to discuss swords!” As soon as Han Muye finished speaking, the youth beside Cao Chun shouted angrily.
