Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint-Chapter 535 - 180: Such Sword Practice, You Can’t Endure It
Shuo Wuji, the founder of the Demon Sect’s Yuanhai Hall on Tianlin Continent, was once known as the Demon Lord.
He established Yuanhai Hall, which has already become famous throughout the Nine Provinces.
Unfortunately, this late-blooming Demon Lord ultimately couldn’t escape the threshold of his lifespan. He failed to achieve Ascension and join the Dao, dissipating after his seated meditation. Back when he presided over Yuanhai Hall, his influence was total over the Demon Sect of Tianlin Continent, as if with one hand he could cover the sky.
He was also a legendary figure of that era.
Wang Mu hadn’t heard of him and was not very familiar with the Demon Sect.
Now, hearing Lu Youlian mention him, the name did sound somewhat familiar.
"Shuo Wuji..." Wang Mu pondered. In the game, Piao Miaoxu seemed to have a subordinate named Shuo Wuji.
In the game, he was very weak, the kind of cannon fodder that gets killed off by the protagonist at the very beginning... Uh...
Elder Yan remained silent, just giving Wang Mu a look.
Wang Mu immediately understood, catching on with tacit understanding.
It must have been Piao Miaoxu’s doing...
Wang Mu nodded slightly towards Elder Yan, signifying his understanding.
Lu Youlian watched the subtle interaction between the two, feeling as if she might be missing something...
"After Shuo Wuji was resurrected... the Demon Sect on Tianlin Continent was shaken..." Lu Youlian continued her report. "Originally, the Demon Sects of Tianlin Continent, along with many demon cultivators, were scattered. However, they have since been unified into a formidable force, and..."
Lu Youlian paused.
"They’re planning to attack our Sword Sect?" Wang Mu asked. "To replicate the previous siege while Elder Yan has yet to undergo her tribulation?"
"Replicate?" Lu Youlian thought for a moment. "No, that’s not it. Their target is the Eight Desolate Netherworld, located in Xilu Land."
"The Eight Desolate Netherworld?" Wang Mu was startled.
What place was this?
Upon hearing this, Elder Yan frowned slightly and said, "Do they wish to lift the seal and bring chaos to the Nine Provinces?"
"It seems... that’s the case," Lu Youlian said gravely. "However, we are not certain. There have been reports from our disciples in Xilu Land that they often see disciples of Yuanhai Hall active there, although it could be a feint..."
Elder Yan said, "Someone is guarding that place. Shuo Wuji alone cannot manage it, and even with all the Demon Sects of Tianlin Continent, they would not be enough... There must be other plans in motion..."
Lu Youlian nodded and said, "I was thinking the same. However, to be on the safe side, we plan to join forces with many righteous sects from Huangtian Continent and head to Xilu Land... But I’m not sure about the Elder’s condition..."
Elder Yan fell silent for a moment.
Wang Mu understood.
The Sword Sect planned to unite with other righteous sects from Huangtian Continent to go to Xilu Land to prevent any accidents. But they were also worried about the Demon Sect attacking their home base in their absence.
If it had been before, with Elder Yan alone at the Sword Sect, the Demon Sect wouldn’t have dared to act recklessly.
But now, Elder Yan had refused to undergo her tribulation and ascend after slaying the Immortal Slaying Sect. This would surely invite suppression from the Heavenly Dao Rules, and her strength might not be what it once was...
Wang Mu thought for a while.
Based on his sword practice with Elder Yan in the Illusion Realm these past few days, her Primordial Spirit was indeed severely damaged. The Little Sword Spirit had already mentioned this. In the Illusion Realm, she couldn’t practice for long before her strength waned.
As for her physical body’s strength, Wang Mu felt it should still be very formidable...
Piao Miaoxu, this great demon, once she’s out, surely intends to turn the whole world upside down...
Inhabiting Gu Yuqing’s body, it’s not easy to deal with her...
And now she has resurrected this Shuo Wuji. Some of her old followers died long ago, and confronting those who might still be alive... would be very difficult with my current strength... Elder Yan’s strength isn’t what it used to be, and the others are in seclusion...
Immortal An Qixiu...
Wang Mu felt that his Golden Core cultivation might also be insufficient.
"I understand," Elder Yan said softly. "You go on. I have my own considerations; they wouldn’t dare come here."
Relieved by these words, Lu Youlian left the Cloud Sea.
Once Lu Youlian had left, Wang Mu said, "So, what percentage of your strength remains?"
Elder Yan did not speak.
"Think about how you should cultivate," Elder Yan said. "Don’t worry about me."
Wang Mu said, "Then should I go practice swordplay with others?"
Elder Yan turned to look at Wang Mu, her cool eyes flashing with a glint of sword light.
"Then let me first ask Elder Yan, how should I continue my cultivation?" Wang Mu, seeing this, could only ask.
"Hmm." Elder Yan nodded slightly, the sword light fading, and she acknowledged him with a sound.
"Your Hundred Refinement Body Technique and Mountain and Sea Body Refining Technique have already reached Great Success..." Then, Elder Yan slowly said, "Your body is like a furnace, cultivating the Great Taoist. If you wish to take a step further on this path, you’ll need to forge an even stronger constitution..."
"As for the subsequent cultivation techniques... someone must have already told you..."
"However, cultivating such a Skill is extremely dangerous... You’d best have someone watch over you; otherwise, it’s very easy for an accident to occur..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Elder Yan was referring to the Divine Demon Body, which he learned about from the Sea Demon King in the Sea Prison by Sealing God Mountain.
The cultivation process requires one to delve into demonic and Buddhist practices, and to see one’s true nature to attain enlightenment; its difficulty is incredibly high.
A slight mistake, and one would suffer the Sea Demon King’s fate.
"As for your Golden Core..." Elder Yan paused for a moment. "You specialize in the Sword Dao, so you should focus on this path and arduously practice the Taixiao Sword Mysterious Skill. Forget about the rest."
"..." Wang Mu.
That wasn’t entirely accurate; the Mixed Elements Heart Sword also had a connection to the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram.
"But to achieve a Nascent Soul... your Golden Core still lacks the Earth and Metal elements. Only then can you condense the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Immortal Infant..." Elder Yan said in a low voice. "This path... allows coexistence with the Five Elements and alignment with Heaven and Earth. Once you condense the Nascent Soul... a thousand miles in a day."
"..." Wang Mu.
"You can then surpass the Nascent Soul Realm with extreme speed, thereby entering Divinity Transformation."
