Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming-Chapter 2286 - 800: Yuzhen Passes Away
At this moment, after examining the treasure bead in his hand, he opened his mouth and inhaled it.
Immediately, a sword light flew out from his mouth and transformed into a white flying sword in his hand. ππ«πππ¨ππ―ππ πππ.ππΌπ
This white flying sword was as crystal clear as jade, emitting a white icy glow. The body of the sword was engraved with numerous snowflake-like spirit patterns, as if it was coated with frost snow.
This was the Bingming True Personβs lifebound dharma treasure, the [Skyfrost Nether Sword], refined from the [Myriad Year Mysterious Jade]. After being refined for over a hundred years, it had already become a powerful peerless dharma treasure.
He then waved his hand to send out this sword, using the sword control technique recorded in the "Taixuan Flying Immortal Sword Technique" to wield it.
The white flying sword danced and weaved through the air, leaving behind trails of white sword qi. Before long, a lotus sword array composed of white sword qi took shape in the sky.
Zhou Chunβs [Ninety-Nine Profound Heaven Sword Gourd] could release up to eighty-one strands of sword qi at once, perfectly suited to use this spiritual treasure to form a sword array.
Thus, the art of sword arrays became his primary strategy while comprehending the sword control technique.
Though he lacked any natural talent as a sword cultivator, he relied on his Nascent Soul Stage cultivatorβs comprehension and the control afforded by his powerful divine sense. After years of practice and understanding, he managed to grasp several methods of setting up sword arrays.
As the second nascent soul incarnation, Bingming True Person could naturally share the sword techniques that Zhou Chun comprehend.
On Kunwu Peak, Zhou Chun quickly opened his eyes and turned his attention back to the ongoing sword duel.
In his eyes, although both had Golden Core Stage cultivation levels, Zhou Xinyuanβs proficiency in the Sword Dao was clearly on a much lower level compared to Zhou Zhiqian.
Even if Zhou Zhiqian limited his cultivation to the Golden Core early stage, he could easily suppress Zhou Xinyuanβs sword.
If not for Zhou Xinyuanβs flying sword being crafted from many rare spirit materials, which made it fearless of clashing with other cultivatorsβ flying swords of the same realm, his flying sword might have already sustained significant damage.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun couldnβt help but sigh.
He could see that his son Zhou Xinyuan truly lacked talent in the Sword Dao. Even with guidance from famous masters from a young age and abundant cultivation resources, his achievements in this area were still difficult to reach a respectable level.
In cultivation, many things truly depend on talent, and the deeper one delves, the more talent is required.
Diligence can make up for lack of talent, but if you take decades or centuries to learn and understand something others can grasp in a year, what is the meaning of that?
Even long-lived Golden Core Stage cultivators or even Nascent Soul Stage cultivators cannot afford to waste time like this!
Thus, Zhou Chun began to formulate an idea in his mind.
However, when he glanced at his companion Su Yuzhen by his side, he decided not to act on this idea for now.
Time flies like a fleeting horse, passing in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, another twenty to thirty years had passed.
On Kunwu Peak, Su Yuzhen was now in an exhausted, burnt-out state. The previously ageless beauty of her face rapidly transformed into a head full of white hair and skin covered in wrinkles in her final moments of life.
Yet, both Zhou Chun and Zhou Xinyuan were instructed to remain outside by her, not allowed to enter.
She did not want her partner and son to see her in such a state, wishing for them to forever remember her as youthful and undying.
As for things she needed to convey, she had already explained them all to them.
However, she would not pass away alone, for there was still someone by her side.
This person was Luo Qingni!
Before this, Luo Qingni herself could not have imagined that Su Yuzhen, in the moments before her death, would refrain from having her partner and son accompany her, but instead specifically request her presence.
As a result, Luo Qingni hesitated and pondered for a long time before agreeing to Su Yuzhenβs request.
At this moment, watching the rapidly aging old woman on the bed, Luo Qingni was filled with mixed emotions.
"Will I be like this in the future?"
She murmured to herself, finding it somewhat hard to accept.
Suddenly, she understood Su Yuzhenβs sentiments.
Meanwhile, Su Yuzhen opened her cloudy eyes to look at her, softly speaking: "Sister Luo, do I look very ugly now?"
Luo Qingni looked at her, remaining silent.
Both were accomplished cultivators, even nearing death, they knew what they looked like without needing a mirror.
Seeing Luo Qingni not speaking, Su Yuzhen wasnβt angry, muttering to herself: "Actually, what does beauty matter? Or ugliness? Any female cultivator would feel inferior standing before Sister Luo, with your beauty akin to a celestial fairy!"
"Sister Su, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Luo Qingni looked at Su Yuzhen, asking in a low tone.
Upon hearing this, Su Yuzhen didnβt answer but instead asked: "Sister Luo, are you curious as to why, when we hardly interacted frequently in the past, I am now specifically asking you to be here to take care of my body in my last moments?"
Luo Qingni remained silent once more.
By not speaking, she tacitly acknowledged this point.
Therefore, Su Yuzhen quickly continued: "Actually, Iβve always been envious of you, Sister Luo. Iβm envious of your successful transformation and nascent soul formation, jealous that you can provide great assistance to my husband in various aspects, while I couldnβt even reach the threshold of transforming into a nascent soul. I couldnβt help my husband at all, and I even became somewhat of a burden to him!"
As she revealed her true feelings, Luo Qingni couldnβt help but be slightly startled, her gaze focused intently on Su Yuzhen.
Su Yuzhen, however, met her gaze and continued: "Sister Luo, do you think Iβm petty? Any female cultivator would feel the same, seeing their husband become close with another female cultivator who surpasses them in every aspect, especially bringing her back to the family for sustenance."
