Chapter 93

"Here is the Guiyuan Sect." Upon arriving at the mountain gate, Hong Tianchou introduced the various aspects of the Guiyuan Sect to Huang Yu.

The Guiyuan Sect, as the second largest sect in the Zhongyuan Kingdom, was established only ten thousand years ago, which was insignificant compared to the ancient sects. However, the Guiyuan Sect managed to rise to this level in just a few thousand years, which was no easy feat.

Of course, this was closely related to the founding patriarch of the Guiyuan Sect.

Ten thousand years ago, the patriarch of the Guiyuan Sect, Gui Wutian, emerged, and with the Three-Part Guiyuan Qi and an unparalleled sword technique, he swept across the True Martial Continent and established the Guiyuan Sect.

At that time, Gui Wutian was a figure of great elegance and dominance.

However, after Gui Wutian left, the Guiyuan Sect began to decline.

It wasn't until three thousand years ago that a world-class genius joined the Guiyuan Sect.

That was the tenth patriarch of the Guiyuan Sect.

Mo Wuxie.

Mo Wuxie had unparalleled talent, reaching the Thunder Tribulation Realm at the age of twenty, breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm at the age of twenty-six, and entering the Life-Death Realm at the age of thirty.

He created the Wu Xie Sword Technique.

This brought glory to the Guiyuan Sect again, even surpassing the Zhongyuan Sword Sect and becoming the largest sect in the Zhongyuan Kingdom.

However, after Mo Wuxie ascended, the Guiyuan Sect split into two factions due to certain reasons: one was the Guiyuan Sect, and the other was the Kaiyuan Sect.

Since then, the strength of the Guiyuan Sect has been weakened.

But even so, the Guiyuan Sect's strength is still formidable and cannot be easily shaken by ordinary sects.

At the mountain gate, there was a huge sculpture.

It was a man in a scholar's robe, holding an ancient scroll, with a long sword hanging from his waist, looking forward.

Huang Yu took a closer look and was suddenly shocked.

He saw the man in the scholar's robe move.

His long sword danced, and sword qi swirled around.

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

The entire world became a world of sword qi.

Streams of sword qi continuously emanated from his sword and body.

And countless sword qi merged into it.

"Wow, he actually entered a state of enlightenment." Seeing Huang Yu stand still, surrounded by sword qi, Hong Tianchou was greatly surprised.

But he was even more delighted.

This kid was so powerful; his talent was truly monstrous.

He wasn't the first to enter a state of enlightenment in front of this statue.

The first one was Mo Wuxie.

And Mo Wuxie didn't enter a state of enlightenment the first time he saw this statue.

Mo Wuxie's enlightenment here led to the creation of the Wu Xie Sword Technique.

And this kid, with his weak cultivation and low realm, what could he possibly enlighten to?

Hong Tianchou was really curious.

Of course, even if he didn't enlighten to anything, the benefits of this enlightenment would be enough to make others envious.

At this moment, Huang Yu felt himself in a world of swords, with sword qi everywhere.

Swords, swords, swords.

His mind was filled with nothing but swords, the terrifying sword qi constantly impacting, as if his brain was about to explode.

"Ah..."

Huang Yu shouted and spat out a mouthful.

A golden sword qi, as substantial as a physical object, pierced through.

A distant stone pillar was penetrated.

Seeing this, Hong Tianchou, who was guarding him, was stunned.

This golden sword qi was so terrifying.

Sword qi, which anyone who had some understanding of sword techniques could release, but he had never seen anyone release golden sword qi at the Human Infant Realm, and it was so terrifying. The stone pillar was made of special materials and had magical restrictions, yet it was penetrated by Huang Yu's sword qi.

It was astonishing.

Even for a Yin-Yang Realm martial artist, it would not be easy to penetrate the stone pillar.

But he managed to do it.

Genius?

Monstrous?

Both.

In short, Flame Peak had a bright future.

He must be well-cultivated, no matter the cost.

...

Huang Yu opened his eyes.

After spitting out that sword qi, he felt refreshed.

His bottleneck was broken again.

The system had already notified him that his cultivation had advanced to the seventh layer of the Human Infant Realm.

Awesome.

How can one word "awesome" describe it?

Although he felt his soul was almost torn apart by the terrifying sword qi, the benefits were enormous.

At this moment, Huang Yu's understanding of swords had deepened significantly.

He even felt that he had touched the edge of sword intent.

The most direct benefit was his deeper understanding of sword momentum, such as the Mountain Sword Momentum and the Angry Wave Sword Momentum.

He had already understood the Mountain Sword Momentum, but after this, his understanding of it became even deeper. The Angry Wave Sword Momentum, which he had no clue about before, now had some understanding, and he felt that he had touched the edge of complete understanding, which was just a matter of time.

This enlightenment greatly increased Huang Yu's strength.

Not just in power.

But in the control of power.

Understanding of sword qi.

Control of sword qi.

Sword qi is intangible and traceless.

If it could be condensed into a physical form, its power would be greatly increased.

Huang Yu's current strength had not yet reached this level.

But after this enlightenment, his mastery of sword qi was at least at the master level, if not the grandmaster level.

At this moment, his attributes had also changed significantly.

At this moment, his combat power seemed to have not changed much, but he had gained something new.

That was sword qi, Golden Sword Qi.

Unknown quality.

Huang Yu knew that the Golden Sword Qi was the last sword qi he spat out.

Its power was astonishing.

Its quality would not be lower than the Earth level.

And he was just a beginner. If he could master it completely, it would become a powerful weapon.

This sword qi had astonishing destructive power, almost ignoring defense.

He didn't know the origin of this sword qi.

What was the origin of that scholar?

Or rather, what was the origin of Gui Wutian?

...

"Good kid, good enlightenment." Seeing Huang Yu fully awake, Hong Tianchou patted his shoulder heavily and said loudly, "You are truly monstrous. In thousands of years, only one person has been able to enter a state of enlightenment by looking at this statue. With you, there are only two people. That means, since the establishment of the Guiyuan Sect, you are the second person to enter a state of enlightenment by looking at the statue of our founding patriarch."

"Second?" Huang Yu was also surprised. He didn't expect so few people to have achieved this. He was the second person in ten thousand years since the establishment of the Guiyuan Sect, which showed how difficult it was to enter a state of enlightenment here.

"Yes, you are the second. The first was Mo Wuxie, the world-class genius of our Guiyuan Sect three thousand years ago. After his enlightenment here, he created his own sword technique, the Wu Xie Sword Technique, which is a top-quality Earth-level technique." Hong Tianchou looked at Huang Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, do you know how lucky you are? I'm jealous. If I could enter a state of enlightenment here, I could break through my bottleneck and enter the late stage of the Life-Death Realm."

"Um... Hong Elder, actually, I didn't enlighten to anything. I just obtained a sword qi." Huang Yu looked at Hong Tianchou, knowing that if he didn't say something, he wouldn't let it go. At his level, even a tiny improvement was extremely difficult. If he could gain some enlightenment from Huang Yu, it would be a great benefit, even if it was just a little.

"Sword qi, that's the sword qi you obtained? The golden sword qi?"

"Yes." Huang Yu nodded, "I haven't mastered that sword qi yet."

"Xiao Yu, you should well understand that sword qi. It is the sword qi left by our founding patriarch when he ascended. I didn't expect you to obtain it. It seems that you are destined by heaven to be the chosen successor of the patriarch." Hong Tianchou was quite excited after hearing Huang Yu's words.

"The sword qi left by the patriarch?"

"Yes, this sword qi actually represents the most important inheritance of our Guiyuan Sect." Hong Tianchou nodded and explained, "The inheritance of our Guiyuan Sect is not the Three-Part Guiyuan Qi or the Holy Spirit Sword Technique, but this sword qi. This is the true inheritance left by the patriarch."

"Ah..."

Huang Yu didn't expect it to be like this.

He had unknowingly obtained the true inheritance of the Guiyuan Sect.

"But, this is good for you, of course, it is also bad for you." Hong Tianchou said.

"What do you mean?" Huang Yu was confused.

"Good, naturally, you obtained the inheritance of the patriarch, the golden sword qi, which has infinite power. If you can understand it, there is nowhere you cannot go in the True Martial Continent."

"What about the bad part?"

"The bad part is that since this sword qi is the inheritance of the patriarch, many people will covet it. Do you think this is a bad thing?" Hong Tianchou looked at Huang Yu and said.

"Many people will covet it? But it's just a sword qi, and not everyone can control it. Besides, they can't take it from me." Huang Yu said.

"Of course, they can't take it by force, but what if you give it to them?"

"What do you mean?"

"By obtaining this sword qi, you are essentially the future patriarch of our Guiyuan Sect. The position of the patriarch of the Guiyuan Sect is not something just anyone can take. Among the second and third-generation disciples, there are several with considerable strength and extraordinary talent. They are the successors of the various peaks and candidates for the position of young patriarch. By obtaining this sword qi, you have become the young patriarch directly. What do you think they will do?"
