Chapter 174: Chapter 174: The Inheritance of Heaven and Earth Sword Skill

Chu Feng adjusted his mood, setting his sights on the next red flag.

However, there were too many monks for the porridge; the number of red flags in the Sword Region was not great, but the talents contending for them were numerous. It was a common occurrence to see four or five people competing for a single red flag at the same time.

Sometimes, there were even more than ten people vying for one red flag.

Chu Feng’s cultivation was weaker than the others, and the only sword technique he had mastered was the defensive Glazed Sword Technique, leaving him at no advantage in any aspect.

A full two hours passed, and he had only managed to snatch one red flag.

Even so, several groups had set their sights on him, wanting to kill for treasure and seize his.

Late on, he also learned to be cunning, hiding the red flag in his clothes as soon as he obtained it. Other talents mostly did the same.

Only an unparalleled devil like Young Master Shangguan would dare to swagger around with red flags in his hand. Young Master Shangguan had already obtained nearly ten red flags, far ahead of everyone else.

Moreover, he had already been the first to break into the Reverse Sword Zone relying on his formidable strength.

The red flags there were more plentiful, of course, but so was the danger.

After Chu Feng snatched a red flag, he should have been buoyed by the success, continuously contending for other red flags. Even though he knew there was no hope of breaking into the top ten, he should have kept on striving.

But at this moment, he was hiding fearfully behind a huge boulder.

This place seemed to be a haven in the Sword Region, miraculously untouched by the descending Sword Qi. Even the occasional stray Sword Qi was blocked by the boulder.

Chu Feng was truly fortunate, a blind cat running into a dead rat, accidentally discovering this peaceful ’haven’.

He just sat cross-legged behind the boulder, and some passing talents sneered at his timid and cowardly behavior.

Chu Feng, however, was indifferent to everything outside, concentrating on sitting with his eyes closed, as if he were regulating his breath, or like he was cultivating.

"Hmph! Just some trash pretending to be cultivating inside the Sword Testing Forest, it’s simply laughable."

"Clearly he’s just timid and afraid of being killed."

Passing talents occasionally uttered their ridicule, but nobody bothered to actually confront Chu Feng.

All were proud talents, too disdainful to lay hands on such a cowardly waste.

...

At this moment, Chu Feng’s heart was tumultuously excited.

When he had passed by this boulder, he unexpectedly felt a thrill in his heart. His Divine Soul seemed to resonate, sensing that there was a great opportunity nearby.

Thus, he decisively gave up on contending for the red flag and chose to sit behind the boulder instead.

When he sat down, he finally understood what the opportunity was.

It was an indescribable Sword Intent, profound and unfathomable.

Chu Feng himself couldn’t articulate it, just feeling as if there was a predestined fate calling to him in this area.

The other talents continued to pass by him, oblivious.

Having experience in comprehending the Glazed Sword Technique, Chu Feng was very adept at it now. His excited state gradually calmed down as he gathered his mind, shedding all distractions, and started to fully comprehend the invisible Sword Intent coming from the void.

As he closed his eyes and carefully felt the Sword Intent, his body trembled slightly, his heart, soul, as if pulled into another dimension of space and time.

He saw the sky filled with unparalleled demons and superlative masters.

With mighty fierce beasts roaring through the heavens and the earth, and peak Great Sword Masters whose sword light extends over a meter, there even exists a Sword Saint with the power to dominate the world.

One after another, they all launched attacks at the white-robed man in the void.

Yet with every slash of the white-robed man’s sword, an enemy would fall, slain by him.

Facing such a multitude of powerful foes, the white-robed man remained calm and composed, his sword strikes flowing one after another, as if he were a Divine Being, dictating life and death of his opponents. With an Independent Decision over Heaven and Earth, he reigned supreme and invincible.

Chu Feng’s blood boiled with excitement; this was a true peerless powerhouse indeed!

Although the white-robed man also only possessed the cultivation of a Sword Saint, when faced with a siege from other Sword Saints, he stood out from the crowd, extraordinary and exceptional.

"What swordsmanship is this?"

Even someone as dull as Chu Feng could see that the reason why the white-robed man was invincible among thousands of enemies was not because of his exceptional cultivation level, but because the swordsmanship he used was exceptionally powerful.

"I am the first Sect Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect, Duan Jiutian!"

After slaying a Sword Saint, the white-robed man turned his gaze to Chu Feng.

His eyes surprisingly emitted a mesmerizing, mystical light. As Chu Feng met his gaze, he was struck with a violent tremor, absorbed by the man’s presence, staring intently at him as if bewitched.

"This swordsmanship is named Heaven and Earth Sword Skill, comprised of eight levels. If one can fully comprehend it, one can wield the sword against the will of heaven, make Independent Decisions, and reverse Yin and Yang. It might not make one invincible under the heavens, but at least they could dominate a province, slay gods upon sighting them, and slaughter demons upon encountering them."

"The fact that you could sense the Qiankun Sword Intent I left in the Sword Testing Forest, this is fate!"

The white-robed man did not give Chu Feng an opportunity to speak, but authoritatively elucidated the origin of the swordsmanship on his own.

"Now, watch carefully, I shall pass on this Heaven and Earth Sword Skill to you!"

As he spoke, the white-robed man began to wield his sword again, yet each strike seemed to be etched deep into Chu Feng’s soul.

"There is no sword technique in the world that cannot be overcome by speed! Heaven and Earth Sword Skill, First Level, Fast Sword Style..."

"A heavy sword without edge holds a mighty presence that dominates all directions; Heaven and Earth Sword Skill, Second Level, Heavy Sword Style..."

Chu Feng’s body trembled non-stop, enduring the legacy of the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill left by the first Sect Master within the Sword Testing Forest. Had it not been for his reincarnation as Alchemy Venerate, with his exceptional Soul Power, he likely would have been unable to bear such a vast amount of information.

...

While other geniuses ridiculed Chu Feng as a coward for hiding behind the giant rock, acting like a shrinking turtle, they were utterly unaware that Chu Feng was receiving the most powerful swordsmanship inheritance of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

Even Elder Yang, who was outside, had not received this Heaven and Earth Sword Skill.

No one in the entire Ten Thousand Sword Sect, whether True Disciples, Elders, or even the current Sect Master, had managed to receive this Heaven and Earth Sword Skill.

Many only grasped some shallow aspects or comprehended other Sword Intents within the Sword Testing Forest.

As Chu Feng sat in comprehension of the supreme sword techniques, Young Master Shangguan had become like a Divine Dragon, daring to break into the long-desired Yin Yang Sword Area by many geniuses. Moreover, after obtaining several Small Red Flags, it seemed he had also gained quite the fortune.

He was spellbound, fingers joined like a sword, ceaselessly displaying one mysterious sword technique after another, contending with the Sword Qi slashing through the void.

Let alone the Yin Yang Sword Area, even the Sword Qi that slashes through the void in the Reverse Sword Zone is frighteningly horrifying.

Apart from Shangguan Bei, no other genius dared to venture into the Yin Yang Sword Area.

The Sword Qi there is terrifyingly powerful; without real strength, one could find themselves dead in the blink of an eye, separated by life and death.

Not only did Shangguan Bei successfully break into the Yin Yang Sword Area, but he also comprehended advanced sword techniques within, his brilliance shining to the extreme, dazzling and eye-catching. He was like a proud sun, outshining all other geniuses.
