Chapter 197: Chapter 194: Specializing in the Sword Dao Path [Adding more for Stern Master Red Tea!]

"Did Elder Qing from Qingliang City entrust you with something?"

In the luxurious Imperial Palace of Xuanzhou’s Immortal Dynasty, even the courtyard they were in had a spirit wood planted, slightly enhancing the cultivation speed of cultivators.

Under the spirit wood, Chen Hua looked up to admire the blooming flowers, not forgetting to ask Liang Yi, who was standing behind him.

"Yes, it’s said to be a medicine to treat the Demon Emperor’s Grand Saint of Nine Spirits, which can save his offspring," Liang Yi replied somewhat absentmindedly, yet truthfully.

"There might be quite a few from the Demon Clan over at Ten Thousand Miles Mountain who’ll dislike you, just be careful yourself," Chen Hua advised nonchalantly, as if it was none of his concern.

"..."

Liang Yi was somewhat speechless, wondering what kind of trouble his master had stirred up with the Demon Clan again!

"Cough cough..." Although he didn’t turn his head, Chen Hua could still feel the staring gaze from behind.

"This Devouring Spirit Sect’s Hierarch, the man behind the mask... it’s actually not my first time encountering him. It seems he had just founded the Devouring Spirit Sect back then," Chen Hua changed the subject and successfully diverted Liang Yi’s attention.

To know your enemies and know yourself, and you will never be defeated. To cut down that masked man, understanding him was the first step.

"You actually have a master mother, who is my Dao companion, and also the elder sister of Emperor Zhou. However, due to a certain incident, she feels greatly self-reproachable and has now sealed herself in the Snow Mountain behind the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool. The other day when Emperor Zhou and I weren’t around, we were at that mountain."

"You might have noticed, when facing the Devouring Spirit Sect, both the Immaculate Sword Technique and Flawless Sword Technique become significantly more powerful than usual. That’s because I specifically designed them targeting the Devouring Spirit Sect. Back then, I only knew the masked man made a move, not expecting the Devouring Spirit Sect to be behind it, hence I tailored these two sword techniques around his cultivation technique characteristics."

Chen Hua spoke in a calm tone, recounting old tales that Liang Yi was unaware of.

Since Su Youyi became the best in the world in the last life, Chen Hua rarely showed up, and players didn’t even know whether he was in the Taoist Sect or somewhere else, so naturally, they wouldn’t be interested in his deeds, even though he was the former number one.

"After I created the Primordial Cloud Scroll Immortal Technique, I realized one person couldn’t use it, so I simplified it into the two sword techniques, Immaculate and Flawless."

Chen Hua didn’t speak quickly, but the more Liang Yi listened, the more shocked he became.

His own master really was impressive, having married the elder sister of Emperor Zhou as his Dao companion, not to mention creating two orange sword techniques, he could even synthesize them into a golden technique.

Now, Liang Yi had already placed the Primordial Cloud Scroll Immortal Technique on his skill panel, but it couldn’t be upgraded or used; it was only there for viewing.

Liang Yi speculated that this skill really required two people to function, and the conditions for wielding it were extremely harsh. Even if he tried it with his junior sister again now, there was a good chance they couldn’t make it work again.

That kind of connection under life-and-death situations was truly something that could not be forced; maybe if he and his junior sister grew even closer in the future, it might succeed?

"Alright, old folks like us just enjoy reminiscing about the past. Calling you here alone was also to say, that Grand Saint of Nine Spirits is just a large kitty cat, don’t be afraid. The Devouring Spirit Sect probably won’t cause any trouble for now; the Azure Dragon Envoy and the Black Tortoise Envoy, one got his spine broken by me, the other got his turtle shell smashed, neither died but are crippled. However, their methods are tricky, and they might still pop up."

Chen Hua casually sat down under the tree, gesturing for Liang Yi to come over.

"While the others are busy making the Mystic Ice Coffin, I might as well give you some pointers on your Sword Dao. I’ve always felt your swordsmanship talent was unbelievably good, and now it seems your comprehension might even match mine."

"Don’t praise me like that, Master, I’ll get arrogant," Liang Yi said with a bashful scratch of his head, though feeling an uncontrollable touch of emotion inside.

Although his master didn’t state it openly, how could Liang Yi not understand the reason behind this long conversation?

It was nothing but to guide him, distract his attention, and prevent him from looking so gloomy. But his master, familiar only with handling swords and rebuking people, was quite talentless in comforting others, having to ramble and use his past stories to try to catch his interest.

"By the way, that fox you have seems to have a strange bloodline. Bring her along when visiting the Demon Clan this time, there might be some surprises. Also, as for Chu Qinglin, you probably have an idea about that; I won’t say much more."

After giving Liang Yi a few simple tips, Chen Hua began the long-unpracticed session of "guiding the disciple."

The usual rule, enter the Illusion Realm!

However, this time the "caring" for the disciple turned out beyond Chen Hua’s expectations, as Liang Yi’s progress was terrifyingly fast.

Liang Yi used to rely on the convenience of having a system, wanting to become knowledgeable in all techniques, always following a path that combined Daoist Skills and Swordsmanship.

But being a jack of all trades meant he was a master of none!

Previously, as a player, combining swordsmanship and Daoist Skills was commendable and presentable. But now, Liang Yi is a disciple of the Banished Immortal, the inheritor of one of the Eight Super Forces of the Taoist Sect, his perspectives and horizons are utterly different from his previous life.

What he needs is not just to bully players after mastering everything; he needs to face the ceaseless assassinations by the Devouring Spirit Sect, and confront the Chiefs of other Super Forces.

He desires the power to protect his junior sister in his arms, keeping her safe from anyone!

Abandon Daoist Skills, focus solely on Sword Dao!

With a swordsmanship talent of 10 points, his talent is not inferior to any Sword Dao Practitioner!

This life-and-death crisis led him to consecutively use Primordial Cloud Scroll Immortal Technique and the extraordinary Killing Autumn, bringing him unimaginably huge gains, so much so that even Liang Yi himself found it hard to believe.

Since waking up, Liang Yi hadn’t held a sword, but the moment he picked up the sword again in the Illusion Realm, he noticed the difference in himself.

Although he was still being spectacularly beaten by his master, he could withstand much longer in his master’s hands than before, and its improvement was visibly fast.

It’s like starting in boxing being knocked down by a punch from Tyson, to being able to exchange a few rounds before being knocked down again.

Chen Hua was amazed by his disciple’s terrifying speed of improvement; the explosive cultivation speed is one thing, but his innate talent in swordsmanship was not just talk.

And that terrifyingly astute understanding; it’s supposed to be a gentle conception of Sword Births All Techniques, yet this disciple of his goes against it and comprehends a sword move full of killing intent from it. If one didn’t know better, they might think he learned One Sword Destroying All Techniques. Although the sword move is somewhat immature, the potential hidden within is enough to draw anyone’s attention.

"Snap!"

A crisp sound, the sword in Liang Yi’s hand was directly chopped into two by the illusion opposite.

"Hiss!"

Wincing and continually waving his swollen right hand, Liang Yi signaled to his master to pause for a moment.

"Master, is that illusion really not you?" Liang Yi skeptically looked at his master.

"Dear disciple, thinking like that makes your master very sad, if it were me, would I treat you so harshly?" Chen Hua blinked, his eyes revealing innocence and grievance.

"Really?"

Liang Yi used not to doubt his master, but after traveling so long and meeting countless strong figures, he had come to know a completely different side of his master.

A master capable of making enemies world-wide then pushing his disciple out to take the blame; nothing he does would come as a surprise, right?

"Master, the Mystic Ice Coffin is ready!" The little fox Yue ran over breathlessly, hopping from a distance.

Hearing this news, Liang Yi could not explore the truth any further and walked with his master and the little fox towards the room where his junior sister was resting.
