Chapter 174: Chapter 153: Primordial Embryo and Outer Elixir (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

"The scriptures passed down by the Great Freedom Elder... ’Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture’?"

"Indeed, another cultivation technique!"

"It can be used to enlighten the cultivation avatar."

Fang Xing’s spirit had already formed the Vajra Relics, impervious to all evil.

He easily digested this information, summarizing a cultivation technique!

"This technique turns out to be passed down by the founding ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Sect... Truly extraordinary. Could this sword be the Great Freedom Elder’s personal weapon?"

He looked at the ancient sword in his hand.

This sword was covered in dust, its blade dimmed, and the hilt decorated with an exotic beast’s gaping mouth.

"At least a fourth-rank treasure... but never mind, taking their legacy is enough, taking the treasure as well seems not quite right..."

"My moral education scores are quite high after all..."

Fang Xing pursed his lips.

At that moment, Sword Heart Peak rumbled, numerous prohibitions began to collapse...

It was the Golden Core Sword Cultivators from outside who had started to break the prohibitions, ready to defy the rules and forcibly descend upon Sword Heart Peak!

"Let’s go!"

Fang Xing performed an ancient ritual towards the many fervent-eyed Sword Cultivators in the sky, then with a flash of silver light, his figure disappeared...

"What?! He left?"

A sword light touched down, and Kong Fengge stared at the spot where Fang Xing had vanished, his face full of disbelief, "Escape Space Talisman? No... even a fourth-rank Escape Space Talisman shouldn’t be able to break through our sect’s no-fly restriction! Could it be... a fifth-order talisman?!"

"Perhaps it’s just a fourth-rank Escape Space Talisman... but we forcefully shut down the prohibitions at Sword Heart Peak, creating flaws in the sect’s grand formation, giving that person a chance... If all this is within their calculation, the cunning of that person’s mind is indeed terrifying."

The white-haired Sword Cultivator glanced around and spoke indifferently.

"Fortunately, the ancestor’s flying sword hasn’t been lost..."

Kong Fengge saw that the ancient sword was still stuck in the rocky wall and nodded.

"That person... is truly strange. Could they be some Great Ability, just barging in for fun? Playing such a joke on us?"

The group of Golden Core Cultivators racked their brains but still couldn’t understand.

"Enough, repair the prohibitions, this matter... let’s lay it aside for now, not a word to be leaked. I’ll send a message to the Supreme Elder, and let the Supreme Elder decide."

Real Man Broken Sword, Kong Fengge, finally made a decision.

"What about... these mortals?"

The white-haired Sword Cultivator waved his hand, and a mana drew several kneeling mortals at the foot of the mountain.

They were also victims of a baseless disaster, having originally thought of staying to impress the Heavenly Sword Sect with their determination, yet they encountered such a rare event.

As Kong Fengge’s eyes briefly flashed a verdant hue, seemingly using some soul-searching divine skill, he saw a plain-looking youth approaching, his figure swift as lightning as he began to climb Sword Heart Peak.

He thought for a moment and spoke, "For now, let’s accept them into the sect as nominal disciples... After all, we are not from the Demon Path; we can’t just kill them with a single sword... Anyway, if they fail the future assessments, death by broken sword, they might even resent today’s decision by us."

"We will strictly follow the Sect Master’s sword decree."

The group of Core Formation Elders had no objections, and so the matter was settled.

Those young mortals came back to their senses, their faces filled with euphoria, one of them immediately with tears brimming, "I can join the number one Immortal Sect in the world and start cultivating?!"

...

Main Universe.

Blue Star University, dormitory.

With a flash of silver light, Fang Xing’s figure appeared.

"Indeed, just as previously planned, the True Monarch of the Heavenly Sword is not within the sect, and even if present, Sword Heart Peak repels those above Core Formation, not to mention Nascent Souls..."

"At least, it bought me the chance to teleport..."

"The final result also went smoothly, the only cost being the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra increasing a bit..."

Looking at the proficiency of the Great Sun Tathagata Mantra in the attribute bar rising to 70, he sighed somewhat helplessly.

However, for the attainment of numerous insights into the Sword Dao, the price was very worthwhile.

Fang Xing chose a comfortable position and began to slowly comprehend the ’Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture.’

He initially only wanted to take advantage of the Sword Dao realm imbued in Sword Heart Peak.

Unexpectedly, after encountering the Sword Heart and Sword Intent Formation, he gained even more.

Of course, this had little impact on the Heavenly Sword Sect.

After all, he did not take the fourth-order Spirit Sword, just a legacy.

The value of knowledge does not diminish with continuous learning.

Although his original body lacked a Spirit Root and couldn’t cultivate, comprehending this technique posed no problems.

"This ’Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture’ is of a very high grade, belonging to top-tier cultivation techniques, and can even be practiced up to the Divinity Transformation Realm!"

"At the Foundation Establishment Stage, it requires the condensation of three hundred sixty-five drops of liquid mana to achieve Perfect Foundation Establishment... indeed higher than the ’Purple Star Sword Manual.’"

"The various Divine Skills and secret techniques within it are incredibly astonishing..."

"Most importantly, it involves the Sword Embryo Technique."

’Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture’ is naturally also about cultivating a Lifebound Flying Sword or sword pill initially.

According to the Sword Manual, the best materials are ’Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron’ and ’Purple Qing Divine Iron.’

"If it really doesn’t work, ’Taiyin Yuanjin’ and ’Tianxuan Star Sand’ can also suffice.

But evidently, according to Fang Xing’s earlier inquiries to Deacon Zhong, these sword-refining materials are of a rare and exceptional grade, having disappeared for countless years.

"However, just because they are absent from this part of the Cultivation World does not mean they are absent from the Main Universe..."

Fang Xing decided then to thoroughly search through the treasure vault of Blue Star University.

He could even ask for help from other friends, such as Song Jingang, and Zhong Yuxiu...

"Hmm?"

He continued reading, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The various methods of sword refining from the Heavenly Sword Sect largely originate from the ’Great Freedom Mysterious Gold Sword Scripture,’ therefore many sword scriptures discussing refining are far surpassed by this one.

At the end of the various methods of sword refining, there was even a special method of sword refining!

’Primordial Embryo Skill... does not require precious materials, first forge a sword embryo, ensuring the mind and spirit are in harmony, in the future, by severing the opponent’s flying sword, absorbing the essence and Sword Qi within the opponent’s flying sword, thereby continuously enhancing the grade of the flying sword...’

"This annotation... comes from ’Freeman Elder,’ he couldn’t find the Four Great Divine Irons... eventually used a large amount of Geng Metal to first forge a Lifebound Flying Sword, through constant sword fighting, severing enemy flying swords, and absorbing various rare materials, ultimately even elevating that ’Freeman Sword’ to the pinnacle of a Spiritual Treasure, half a step away from becoming a Fifth-Order Flying Sword..."

"If it really doesn’t work, I might also have to choose this method."

Fang Xing continued to contemplate.

After all, studying this sword manual here was akin to his Cultivation Avatar learning it.

"This sword scripture also discusses the Four Realms of Sword Dao, even possessing some accompanying secret techniques, which can assist in cultivating Sword Gang and Sword Intent... truly formidable, this adjoining ’Condensing Sword Technique’ can be first cultivated by the avatar."

"There’s also this Sword Escape Technique, reputed to be unparalleled in the world... Indeed, is the great fame of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s escape techniques started from here?"

For the sections on Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation, Fang Xing found them hard to understand and did not bother with them at this time.

His primary focus was on the foundations of the Qi Cultivation Stage, and the Foundation Establishment parts, so that once he obtained the sword embryo, he could smoothly transition the Cultivation Technique.

Besides, the description of Core Formation was also extremely valuable.

After all, Sword Cultivators condense a Sword Pill! They need to fuse their own Golden Core with the Lifebound Flying Sword, somewhat similar to artifact refining, yet also possessing elements of Alchemy.

"Hmm? This?"

Fang Xing’s eyes moved, suddenly seeing a secret technique.

"A secret technique that assists Core Formation? Outer Elixir Technique?"

He quickly read on, his eyes growing brighter.

You know, for Sword Cultivators to merge their Lifebound Flying Sword with their own Golden Core is akin to needing an extra step during Core Formation, naturally making it more difficult.

And the three trials of Core Formation equally demand a high level of mana.

Ancient Sword Cultivators, from the ways of Sword Pill, Fake Core, and other techniques, developed a technique called ’Outer Elixir Technique,’ which involves refining an ’Outer Elixir’ through artifact refining methods.

"This Outer Elixir differs from the Fake Core Realm; it’s merely a Magic Artifact or rather a quasi-Magic Treasure... If a disciple at the early stages of Foundation Establishment refines it, they could at least obtain Fake Core Power... If it’s at the late stage or Perfect Foundation Establishment, it might even compare to a True Core!"

"There are Spiritual Imprints on the Outer Elixir, after usage, it can’t be given to another, akin to a kind of special Magic Artifact..."

"During Core Formation, if one already possesses the power of Core Formation... naturally, it can greatly reduce effort, then more focus can be placed on condensing the Sword Pill... Core Formation power can also accelerate the fusion of the Golden Core and the flying sword... indeed it’s exceptional!"

This Outer Elixir Technique, not only can it rapidly enhance strength, but it also increases the chances of successful Core Formation, truly a marvelous method.

If word got out, who knows how much it would stir the Cultivation World!

Of course, the only downside is that it requires a lot of materials.

"The initial method for refining the Outer Elixir was directly modifying a Third-Rank Demon King’s inner core, but it was later found that the inner core of a Demon King was obstinate and difficult to tame and was contaminated with demonic Qi, gradually leading to its abandonment..."

"The mainstream method is to forge it with metallic materials... meanwhile imbuing it with various Vigorous Evil Qi."

"This could indeed be a method for my Cultivation Avatar to quickly grow stronger; I should keep an eye on it..."

With this thought, Fang Xing immediately started searching through Blue Star University’s Treasure Vault.

The items in the vault were naturally all very rare and covered a myriad of things.

He looked through and identified a few suspect items, then dialed a number: "Hello... Song Jingang?"

"Boss, it’s me!"

Song Jingang’s voice immediately came through.

"Send me a file with all the resources your university can provide; I want to see. If there’s anything I’m interested in, help me exchange for it... Don’t worry, when the time comes, you can pick what you want from Blue Star University’s treasure vault, and I’ll exchange it with you," Fang Xing spoke.

"Really? Boss... Wait for me, right away," Song Jingang jumped three feet high.

That’s Blue Star University’s treasure vault!

Who knows how many good items are in there.

"I always feel this kid isn’t very useful..."

Fang Xing thought for a moment, then dialed another contact method.

...

Within a Cosmic Secret Realm.

A planet, seemingly entirely composed of machinery, was slowly revolving.

This was ’Holy Armor University,’ using an entire mechanized planet as the university headquarters.

The entire planet resembled a meticulously divided Hive, composed of countless fully automated mechanized factories.

In some of the massive factories, gigantic Mechas were also being assembled.

Zhong Yuxiu looked at the giant Mecha ahead, and couldn’t help nodding: "Spending so much, Dad even specially purchased Eternal Crystals... My meditation technique has finally broken through, and I can now achieve perfect synchronization with the Mecha... Once this ’Princess’ model is built, after I get a bit more skilled, even Great Vajra might not be able to beat me... It’s just a pity, I can’t go to the Secret Realm Battlefield to show off, most of people do their internships there, I, a Mecha Master, can only go to the Main Universe Battlefield..."

Just then, she saw an incoming call, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Fang classmate, are you looking for me?"
