Deconstructing the first stone tablet, he obtained a total of five hundred and sixty sword techniques, both subpar and third-rate, along with some initial realizations about swordsmanship and insights into attacking enemies.

Qin Yuesheng felt it, and if he wasn’t mistaken, the inscriptions on this tablet should be Bai Yue Sword Saint’s reflections when he first embarked on the path of learning swordsmanship.

Deconstructing the second, third, and fourth stone tablets, he acquired three hundred and forty second-rate sword techniques. His insights into the Sword Dao deepened even further, and although Qin Yuesheng had never practiced swordsmanship before, here, his mastery in Sword Dao was already comparable to those renowned swordsmen in Jianghu.

Gazing at the Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand, Qin Yuesheng couldn’t help but feel a sense of familiarity. If this sword was previously just a weapon to him, now it had become a part of his body, extraordinarily close.

Qin Yuesheng activated the super assistive device and saw that a brand new skill had appeared on the skill panel. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Sword Dao Mastery (First-rate): Your swordsmanship in Jianghu is at a level where you could establish your own sect.

Deconstructing the fifth, sixth, and seventh stone tablets, he acquired eighty first-rate sword techniques, and the understanding of Sword Dao recorded there had already made Qin Yuesheng a giant in Sword Dao.

Checking the super assistive device again: Sword Dao Mastery (Master): Your swordsmanship in Jianghu is at a pinnacle level, just a step away from being called Sword Saint.

Qin Yuesheng was utterly shocked.

Among these nine hundred and eighty sword techniques, more than seventy percent were Bai Yue Sword Saint’s own creations. This person was truly a prodigy, wandering across the vast lands while learning sword techniques from various schools and sects, ultimately integrating them into a unified method.

It’s no wonder there was such a deep foundation of sword techniques, allowing him to easily create new sword techniques.

If these sword techniques were fully spread throughout Jianghu, the martial world of the Nine Provinces would surely prosper in Sword Dao.

In the future, it might very well happen that nine out of ten warriors would use swords.

"No wonder the Demon Sect would come all the way south to seek the hidden treasures of the Sword Tomb. If they acquired these stone tablets, the Demon Sect’s power would surely surge in no time," Qin Yuesheng thought to himself.

Actually, he subconsciously thought this matter too lightly. Others do not possess the ability to instantly comprehend the content of the stone tablets upon deconstruction. Even if those from the Demon Sect acquired them, they would need to spend considerable time carefully understanding them, unlike him who, within a few blinks of an eye, could transform from someone who had never learned swordsmanship to a giant in Sword Dao.

Looking at the final eighth and ninth stone tablets, Qin Yuesheng felt extremely excited.

As a Sword Saint, Bai Yue naturally couldn’t be without Divine Skill, and on these two tablets, there was very likely to be the sword techniques used by Bai Yue Sword Saint.

Deconstruct! Deconstruct!

The two stone tablets instantly disappeared from under Qin Yuesheng’s palm.

Acquired seventeen half-step Divine Skills and three Divine Skills.

A sudden realization came over Qin Yuesheng as he saw a white figure appear before him; the figure transforms into ten, each holding differently shaped swords, performing various basic sword techniques.

Claymore, dual swords, short sword, serpentine sword...

Finally, all the figures merged into one, becoming a singular person.

This person held a blade of grass, yet it still emitted a terrifying pressure, as if the grass were the ultimate Divine Soldier.

Suddenly, the grass disappeared, and the figure’s entire body burst into a surge of Sword Qi; at this moment, he himself was a sword.

Soon, everything vanished as if nothing had ever happened.

"Bai Yue Sword Saint, truly an unparalleled genius," Qin Yuesheng muttered, digesting the various fundamental truths of the Sword Dao that surged in his mind.

Relying on the super assistive device, he reinforced two Divine Skills, but Bai Yue Sword Saint relied on extraordinary talent and understanding of Sword Dao to create three Divine Skills himself, and further elevated seventeen first-rate sword techniques to the half-step Divine Skill level, just one step away from Divine Skill.

If Qin Yuesheng were to compile a strength ranking at this moment, Bai Yue Sword Saint and the woman frozen below the Isolated Island Temple would undoubtedly be in the top tier.

[Sword Dao Mastery (Grandmaster): Your Sword Dao mastery is extraordinary.]

"When Bai Yue Sword Saint left these stone tablets, he was only just entering middle age. It’s unknown where he has journeyed over the years or whether he still exists in this world."

According to the ninth stone tablet, Qin Yuesheng learned that after Bai Yue Sword Saint broke through the Tenth Layer of the Internal Power Realm and entered the Grandmaster Realm, he chose to leave his legacy as a seed, then ventured alone beyond the confines of Great Tang to unexplored and unknown territories.

Thus, from that time onward, the martial world gradually lost traces of Bai Yue Sword Saint, until he became a legend in Jiangnan’s martial community.

Not long after the nine stone tablets had vanished, another stone platform rose from the previously surrounded central area; on the stone platform was an unmistakable black sword, surrounded by an array of bottles and jars.

This was one of the many treasures left behind by Bai Yue Sword Saint, including the ’Black Dragon,’ his once-favored sword, and numerous precious elixirs.

If Qin Yuesheng were to exchange these elixirs with the Seven Star Monitor for wraithful energy, it might take him forever.

Although the Black Dragon Sword does not reach the level of a Divine Soldier, it is far superior to the two third-grade weapons passed down by the Sword and Saber Sect. Qin Yuesheng gladly accepted it, as now having eight arms, equipping each arm with a weapon is crucial for exerting a fear-inducing power at critical moments.
