"Blood Weeping Sword Technique! Its power is astonishing! It consists of three forms: the first form, Sword of Ghostly Wails! The second form, Sword Shattering the Heavens! The third form, Fury of the Sword Soul! When cultivated to the peak, it can shake the six realms!"
Nie Tianxing recalled the information about the Blood Weeping Sword Technique, feeling an immense shock in his heart. The images of the three forms kept appearing in his mind, each sword move being incredibly terrifying.
"What a terrifying sword technique! If I cultivate all three forms, would I still fear the destruction of the Ye Family?" Nie Tianxing said excitedly, but was such a terrifying sword technique really that easy to cultivate?
"If you can truly cultivate all three forms of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique, not only will the destruction of the Ye Family be a piece of cake, but you can roam the six realms without anyone being able to stop you. Unfortunately, no one has ever successfully cultivated all three forms. Even the person who created this sword technique and forged the Blood Weeping Divine Sword couldn't reach the peak! Moreover, you can't even condense sword qi yet. I let you cultivate the Blood Weeping Sword Technique so that you can fight against enemies and not be completely helpless," Tian Yunzi explained telepathically.
"Indeed! Please give me more guidance, Senior!" Nie Tianxing nodded, knowing that the more profound and terrifying a sword technique, the harder it is to cultivate.
"First, cultivate the basic moves of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique. As for the essence of the three forms, you can gradually understand them in the future," Tian Yunzi said telepathically.
Nie Tianxing smiled bitterly, "Hehe, as Senior says, for now, I can only cultivate the basics. Without sufficient true essence, I can't condense sword qi, let alone cultivate the three forms."
"By the way, Senior, who is the person who forged this divine sword and created this sword technique?" Nie Tianxing asked curiously, imagining what kind of powerful person could create such a terrifying sword technique and forge such a powerful divine sword.
"I was an old friend of his. He is gone forever, while I survived by chance. Hehe," Tian Yunzi smiled slightly, his words filled with nostalgia and a hint of sorrow for his old friend.
"Indeed, then why didn't you cultivate such a powerful sword technique, Senior?" Nie Tianxing asked again, puzzled why such a terrifying sword technique was given to him instead of being cultivated by the senior himself.
"Because it's not suitable for me. My strongest skills are in fist techniques and alchemy, not in swords."
"Oh? Then can Senior teach me? It would be beneficial to learn more," Nie Tianxing said excitedly, knowing that the techniques cultivated by such a mysterious and powerful elder must be very powerful, and he wouldn't miss this opportunity.
"Brat, you're quite greedy! Wait until you cultivate the sword technique. Alright! Focus on cultivating the sword technique."
Nie Tianxing nodded, holding the Blood Weeping Divine Sword, and concentrated his mind. He began to cultivate according to the methods of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique. The image of a person performing the sword technique kept appearing in his mind, each move and form being incredibly graceful, like a dance, but with terrifying power. Nie Tianxing was completely absorbed in it.
"Just the basic moves are so powerful! I can't even imagine how terrifying the sword qi will be after cultivating the three forms!" Nie Tianxing said in awe, then his body began to mimic the movements in his mind, though it was very clumsy.
This was Nie Tianxing's first time practicing sword techniques, and it was already difficult to imitate the movements in his mind.
"This boy has never cultivated any techniques before; his movements are too slow. But it's hard for him. He has been a waste for fifteen years, all because of me. If not for that, he might already be a renowned genius in the empire," Tian Yunzi thought, feeling a bit guilty.
"Hey? Is Tianxing cultivating the sword technique?" Kuang Mie, who brought the food, was surprised. He always brought food to Nie Tianxing on time, but today he saw Nie Tianxing practicing the sword technique, which made him a bit envious.
"Never mind, I won't disturb Tianxing's cultivation. I need to hurry back and cultivate too, or I'll be caught up by him!" Kuang Mie smiled happily, put down the food, and quickly left.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
Nie Tianxing was fully focused on practicing the sword, completely unaware of Kuang Mie bringing the food. His long sword kept moving, but the movements were still very clumsy.
"Sigh! After several days of practice, there's still no improvement at all!" Nie Tianxing shook his head and smiled bitterly. Although it was difficult, he wouldn't give up the opportunity to cultivate and erase the name of a waste.
"Tianxing, your current task is to practice every move and form of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique until you are proficient. But you must be fast, fierce, and accurate! You're not even at the entry level yet!" Tian Yunzi instructed.
"Alright! I understand! I will work hard to cultivate. With such a terrifying sword technique, it would be a waste not to cultivate it!" Nie Tianxing smiled, noticing the food that had been delivered. A warm feeling welled up in his heart.
"Kuang Mie! Thank you! I, Nie Tianxing, will never forget your kindness in this life." Nie Tianxing thought. After practicing all morning, he was starving. After wolfing down the food, he continued practicing the sword.
For a whole month, Nie Tianxing practiced the sword except for eating. At night, he cultivated the Blood Weeping Divine Technique. His cultivation had already reached the middle stage of the Enlightenment Realm, and his astonishing cultivation speed shocked Kuang Mie again.
Now, he had become extremely proficient in the moves of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique. Each move and form was well-executed, no longer feeling clumsy, and his sword dancing speed had increased, though it still lacked the essence.
"Great! Great! Very good! In just a month, from not knowing how to hold a sword to becoming so proficient in the Blood Weeping Sword Technique, that's not something an ordinary person can do!" Tian Yunzi said with satisfaction, his illusory figure appearing only when no one was around.
"Unfortunately, I still can't cultivate the first form!" Nie Tianxing smiled. A month of effort had brought him immense satisfaction, as he had become much stronger, far more than he was a month ago.
"Hehe, you're still far from it! Now, your cultivation of the sword technique is only in form, not in essence. You must skillfully use true essence to infuse the Blood Weeping Divine Sword. Only then can you unleash the power of the sword technique, greatly enhancing the power of each move!"
"Form without essence? What does that mean, Senior?" Nie Tianxing asked.
"Simply put, it means to perform the moves of the Blood Weeping Sword Technique with their essence. More simply, it means to give the moves a soul! Just having the movements without any variation is useless and can easily be seen through by the enemy. So, a sword with a soul will transform endlessly, killing without a trace," Tian Yunzi explained patiently.
