Chapter 1094: Chapter 1094: Gathering Momentum (Part 2)

Nameless Plain.

This place lies far from human habitation, devoid of any villages or fortified towns for hundreds of miles, with not a single trade route in sight.

Even monster beasts scorn this desolate and barren land, where only small creatures such as wild rabbits and grass foxes make their home, leading peaceful and tranquil lives.

Yet today, these small animals are all cowering in their burrows, daring not to show their heads, curling up and trembling.

Above the plain, streaks of sword light in red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple crisscross wildly, tearing through the air with thunderous roars, dividing the space around into countless fragments.

These auras intertwine above the firmament to form a dense and intricate sword net, its majestic might enveloping the earth, creating a vast invisible Sword Domain.

Swordsmanship has reached this point, nearly one with the Way!

In the next moment, all sword lights converge, and seven Flying Swords reveal their true forms.

Wang Chen, floating in the air, gestures with his hand, and the seven swords instantly gather into one great sword, rapidly retreating into the Sword Box on his back, concealing all their dazzling brilliance!

[Qijue Sword Technique ∙ Experience +1]

Glancing at his Cultivation Panel, Wang Chen heaves a sigh of relief.

After a year of diligent practice and continual investment of points to increase experience, this exquisite sword technique has finally reached the stage of Minor Achievement.

And with the advancement of his proficiency in swordsmanship, Wang Chen’s refinement of and control over the seven Flying Swords has deepened substantially, already reaching a level where they move as extensions of his own limbs, connected by heart and mind.

Though untested in real combat, he is confident that with this Qijue Sword Formation, he could even contend against a Nascent Soul at the Primary Tier!

Both his combat strength and self-preservation capabilities have greatly improved.

While deep in thought, Wang Chen suddenly feels a stirring in his heart.

A streak of light speeds from the distance, crossing the expanse in the blink of an eye and arriving before him.

Seized by Wang Chen’s hand.

It is a small and exquisitely-fashioned Flying Sword with a letter attached to its hilt.

Wang Chen takes the letter and reads it.

His heart understands.

What was destined to come has finally arrived!

This Flying Sword Messaging came from Huangfu Yongchun, who informs Wang Chen in the letter that the day for the opening of Langya Cave Heaven is drawing near and asks him to return immediately to Luodu Immortal City to meet.

Wang Chen puts away the letter and immediately leaps up as a streak of Sword Light, flying towards the direction of Luodu.

One day later, he and Huangfu Yongchun board a Golden Core Flying Warship together, heading for the secret location of Langya Cave Heaven.

“True Person Wang, this mission has been quite arduous for you.”

Inside the cabin, Huangfu Yongchun personally pours Wang Chen a cup of Spiritual Wine, saying with a smile, “I hope this trip goes smoothly and that both of us will reap some benefits; otherwise, we’ll have to wait another ten years.”

As he speaks, his smile gradually fades: “I can hardly afford to wait any longer!”

“Thank you.”

Wang Chen downs the cup of wine in one gulp, then curiously asks while holding the empty cup, “True Person Huangfu, you’re not even two hundred years old and have many years ahead of you; why would you say you can’t wait?”

The lifespan of a Golden Core True Person extends to five hundred years, and if one achieves a Superior Golden Core and has a solid Taoist Foundation, or has some special opportunity, or practices special longevity Cultivation Techniques, their lifespan can be considerably extended.

Take Wang Chen, for instance; his lifespan is as long as eight hundred years, which is quite extraordinary among True Persons, though not wholly unique.

Even if Huangfu Yongchun can only live for five hundred years, he still has at least three hundred years to attempt breaking through to the Nascent Soul.

“I won’t hide it from you; I’ve suffered an injury to my Taoist Foundation in a previous conflict.”

Huangfu Yongchun says with a wry smile, “Though I replenished it with a Flood Dragon Core, the lost years of life can’t be recovered. If I don’t break my Golden Core to Condense the Nascent Soul soon, my chances of success will only diminish in the future.”

“I see.”

Wang Chen nods and says, “Rest assured, True Person Huangfu, I will devote myself to helping you unlock the internal mansions of Langya Cave Heaven.”

“Thank you, fellow Daoist!”

True Person Huangfu Yongchun bowed solemnly to Wang Chen.

Wang Chen quickly returned the bow: “Fellow Daoist, there’s no need for such formalities.”

Although the two were on par in terms of cultivation level, in terms of age and experience in the Dao, Huangfu Yongchun could still be considered his senior.

Because the secret land where Langya Cave Heaven was situated was a great distance away, and Huangfu Yongchun had chosen a safe but circuitous route, the Golden Core Flying Warship would need to fly for at least two days and one night before reaching its destination.

The journey was tedious, but the knowledgeable True Person Huangfu Yongchun told Wang Chen many strange tales and interesting anecdotes from the Cultivation World.

Wang Chen gained a considerable amount of knowledge from this.

In the aspect of cultivation, True Person Huangfu Yongchun also had his own path and shared generously with Wang Chen.

Although Wang Chen had already reached the peak of Golden Core cultivation level, he truly lacked compared to Huangfu Yongchun in insights, experience, and cultivation accumulation, and benefited greatly from the exchange.

In the end, True Person Huangfu Yongchun exclaimed with a sigh: “True Person Wang, with your talent and Comprehension, you will surely condense a Nascent Soul within twenty to thirty years!”

His judgement was based on Wang Chen’s seventh-tier Golden Core cultivation level, and it was a great compliment.

Because it is considered an extraordinary talent for a cultivator to advance to Nascent Soul True Immortal within a hundred years.

Moreover, Wang Chen was a Loose Cultivator!

True Person Huangfu Yongchun was also a Loose Cultivator, so he understood deeply the difficulty of this achievement.

He even felt a sense of empathy.

But this sentiment was quickly suppressed by the presence of this peak Golden Core cultivator!

As the sun set and dusk fell, the Golden Core Flying Warship flew over a great river.

This river was extremely vast, flowing from west to east with a width of over a hundred li. The roaring currents crashing against the rocks produced deafening sounds that could be heard from afar.

Due to the rapid current and abundant water vapor, the river was shrouded in mist, making it difficult to see clearly below.

True Person Huangfu Yongchun stopped the flying warship and said to Wang Chen, “The entrance to Langya Cave Heaven lies within this Flying Cloud River!”

Wang Chen was surprised: “So it’s a water abode.”

Most cultivators’ Cave Mansions are located in places where spiritual energy gathers, like well-known mountains and rivers, and few choose to build their place of cultivation on water veins.

On one hand, it is difficult; on the other hand, the unstable water flow makes it hard to gather spiritual energy, so finding a suitable water abode is even more challenging!

Therefore, people looking for the Cave Mansions of predecessors always delve into the mountains and never jump into rivers.

The fact that True Person Huangfu Yongchun could find a Cave Heaven hidden beneath this great river was indeed extraordinary.

True Person Huangfu Yongchun smiled and said: “That’s right, a fortunate coincidence indeed.”

He was the first to leave the cabin, with Wang Chen following closely behind as they exited.

“Let’s go down!”

True Person Huangfu Yongchun put away the Golden Core Flying Warship and then plunged towards the turbulent river below.

In the blink of an eye, he broke through the water and kept diving down.

Wang Chen followed behind, quickly submerging into the depths of Flying Cloud River.

This river was several hundred zhang deep, and as the water pressure increased, True Person Huangfu Yongchun took out a Water-Repelling Bead to part the river water around them. Finally, he led Wang Chen down onto a dark riverbed rock.

At that moment, a stone tablet covered in water moss appeared in Wang Chen’s view.

The words “Langya Cave Heaven” were strikingly prominent!

Wang Chen’s eyes flashed.

The next moment, True Person Huangfu Yongchun took out a copper token from his Sumeru Ring.
