Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 1517 - 1518: The Ancient Top 10 Supreme Immortal Techniques
"The top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era?"
Chu Fengmian asked with some confusion.
Events from the Ancient Era, and even more ancient times, were only briefly mentioned in ancient texts that Chu Fengmian had read.
After countless upheavals in the Nine Domains, few ancient texts remain, so Chu Fengmian only knows a fragment about the Ancient Era.
"That’s correct. The first major sect of the Ancient Era, the Heavenly Dao Sect, once listed the top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era. These ten immortal techniques were the most powerful among the thousands of immortal techniques at the time."
Xing Xuan smiled at Chu Fengmian.
"The Three Suns Intense Fire Sword was actually just a part of the First Sword Technique. The First Sword Emperor created the First Sword Technique, which was one of the top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era."
"The ten most powerful immortal techniques!"
Immortal techniques, in Chu Fengmian’s eyes, are already immensely powerful.
This First Sword Technique was one of the ten most powerful among thousands of immortal techniques?
"How does the Nine Profound Immortal Technique I obtained compare to this First Sword Technique?"
Chu Fengmian suddenly thought of the Nine Profound Immortal Technique. The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable was also known as a martial genius, and the Nine Profound Immortal Technique he created is renowned today.
"The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable is not from the Ancient Era, but he was indeed a martial genius. Among the thousands of immortal techniques, the Nine Profound Immortal Technique is considered above average."
Chu Fengmian obtained the Nine Profound Immortal Technique, and Xing Xuan knew of its power.
"However, compared to the First Sword Technique, it falls far short. The First Sword Technique consists of five moves. If you can obtain the first three moves, it should be enough to surpass the Nine Profound Immortal Technique."
"Obtaining three moves is enough to surpass the Nine Profound Immortal Technique? This...?"
Chu Fengmian found it hard to believe.
The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable had reached the level of an Immortal Venerable, the eighth rank among the Nine Stages of Immortality, just one step away from an Immortal Emperor.
And the Nine Profound Sword Techniques created by the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable are so vastly different from the First Sword Technique?
"It seems you don’t understand the top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era. These ten immortal techniques are of such destructive power that they’re peerless, and all of them were created by Immortal Emperors!"
Xing Xuan looked at Chu Fengmian, his eyes recalling ancient times.
"Throughout history, there have been a hundred Immortal Emperors. The top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era were almost all created by those at the pinnacle of Immortal Emperors."
"The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable, although a genius, never became an Immortal Emperor. The Nine Profound Immortal Technique he created can’t compare to those created by Immortal Emperors."
"Unless one day the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable steps into the realm of an Immortal Emperor, only then might the Nine Profound Immortal Technique transform to approach the top ten supreme immortal techniques of the Ancient Era."
The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable stepping into the realm of an Immortal Emperor...
Chu Fengmian was about to say that the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable had already died, but then he recalled what the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable said when he left the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s abode.
The Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable had left a message, speaking of meeting again by fate.
In the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable’s abode, there were no remains of the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable. Perhaps the Jiuxuan Immortal Venerable didn’t fall as rumored, but left for somewhere else.
"Do you know the origins of these two items?"
Chu Fengmian stopped pondering and turned his gaze to the Jade Talisman and the sword hilt.
These two treasures were opened with Sword Intent by Chu Fengmian, and the cracked patterns on the Jade Talisman were mended by him.
However, the sword hilt remained as silent as ever, with no trace of Spiritual Power.
But these two treasures must be related to the First Immortal Emperor; they can’t possibly be worthless!
"The Jade Talisman should be the key to unlocking the seal on the sword hilt."
Xing Xuan glanced at it, speaking slowly.
"This sword hilt is sealed with a power, and this Jade Talisman is the key to unlocking the seal on the sword hilt."
"Crush the Jade Talisman and sprinkle it on the sword hilt to see."
"Alright."
Chu Fengmian took the Jade Talisman and fiercely crushed it in his palm, turning it to dust.
The crushed Jade Talisman didn’t release a single speck of dust but transformed into streams of golden light. Without Chu Fengmian’s manipulation, they flew into the sword hilt.
The sword hilt, as the streams of golden light entered, revealed a restriction. With a crack, the restriction shattered.
A terrifying Sword Intent burst forth from the sword hilt, so powerful that it forced Chu Fengmian to take a few steps back.
Despite his strength, he was driven back by the Sword Intent of this sword hilt.
Moreover, Chu Fengmian felt a familiar power from this sword hilt.
It was the same power as that of the Emperor’s Jar.
"An Extreme Immortal Soldier?"
Chu Fengmian’s eyes widened in shock. This sword hilt was actually an Extreme Immortal Soldier?
"This sword was probably one of the First Sword Emperor’s swords, but it’s uncertain whether it’s Tai Chu, Chaos, Cosmos, or Void."
Xing Xuan spoke.
Tai Chu, Chaos, Cosmos, Void.
These four words almost represent everything, from the beginning of time, the chaos of the world, the prosperity of the cosmos, to becoming void.
The First Sword Emperor’s four swords were named after these four concepts.
Chu Fengmian picked up the sword hilt, which awakened from absorbing Sword Intent and did not reject Chu Fengmian, allowing him to take it with ease.
The moment he held it, the characters "Tai Chu" appeared in his mind.
"It’s Tai Chu."
Chu Fengmian spoke.
"The Tai Chu Sword. Who would’ve thought even the First Sword Emperor’s swords would be damaged to such an extent, turned into segments? The sword hilt you obtained doesn’t hold much power, but if you’re able to acquire a segment of the Sword Edge, the power of the Tai Chu Sword will be vastly different."
Xing Xuan said, looking at Chu Fengmian.
"Keep it concealed. The Tai Chu Sword must never be exposed. The First Sword Emperor’s relics draw more attention than your Emperor’s Jar or the Nine Profound Immortal Technique. Even some ancient beings in slumber for millennia would awaken because of it."
"Understood."
Chu Fengmian nodded.
This sword hilt of Tai Chu was from the First Sword Emperor, an artifact of the Immortal Emperor.
In the current era, anything related to immortals is a coveted prize among countless powerful figures, let alone an artifact of the Immortal Emperor.
Chu Fengmian placed the Tai Chu sword hilt into the most secretive part of the Space Ring, only then settling down.
Chu Fengmian hadn’t expected that the old man was actually selling something that belonged to the First Sword Emperor.
"It’s a pity that some of his items were bought by others, or else if they were all in my hands, how strong could I become?"
Chu Fengmian remembered that some of the old man’s items had been purchased by others, and he sighed.
The Nine Domains are vast, and obtaining a few treasures from among billions is no easy task.
