Chapter 377: Green Sun Sword Intent
Translator: jinzeffect
After enrolling as an outer institute elite cadet, Li Fuchen was assigned with his own cadet courtyard.
As the south forest martial institution had massive land but a scarce number of people, the cadet courtyards were very spacious. Each of the courtyards were almost the size of one hectare and all of them had a small-scaled training ground inside.
Li Fuchen was most surprised that the courtyard was covered with an array that could prevent anyone from trying to scout inside. At the same time, the training ground was covered with an isolation array that could isolate destruction.
“300 low-grade spirit stones haven’t been spent in vain.” After seeing the secret room covered in a qi assembly array, Li Fuchen nodded silently.
“Right now, I can take a look at the treasures obtained in the Black Sky Sect Ruins.”
Without the ability to use qi at the Black Sky Sect Ruins, Li Fuchen was unable to sense the specialty of the treasures. After leaving the Black Sky Sect Ruins and arriving at the Seven Color Continent, Li Fuchen was still unable to use his qi, hence, he didn’t have any method to sense them.
Now that his qi had been restored, it was time to sort out the rewards.
Li Fuchen opened up his storage bag and took out the treasures he had obtained in the Black Sky Sect Ruins. There was a total of twelve treasures.
They were the bottle gourd with the Reincarnation Elixirs; the mat that could allow him to concentrate and meditate; concoction furnace; the calligraphy treasure that contained the earth class martial art intent; the notes from the Battle Spirit Realm master; a suspected class 6 demonic beast’s horn; an unknown secret artifact; …; and the Teleportation Board.
The Reincarnation Elixir might inferior to the Rebirth Elixir, and there would hardly be any room for progression after using the Reincarnation Elixir to progress to the Reincarnation Realm. But in this world, there were countless people who were stuck at the peak level of Heaven Dipper Realm and to them, it wasn’t important to have any room for future progression.
In Raging Inferno City, a single Reincarnation Elixir was valued at around 500 low-grade spirit stones and it was around the same price as a Spirit Cleansing Elixir.
Three of these elixirs would be worth 1500 low-grade spirit stones.
This meditation mat’s value would be hard to estimate. But Li Fuchen didn’t intend to sell it as it was only right to reserve it for his own usage.
The concoction furnace, the calligraphy treasure, and the notes of the Battle Spirit Realm master were all items with values that were hard to estimate.
Holding onto the demonic beast horn, Li Fuchen started to analyze it.
This horn contained extremely tyrannical qi presence. It felt as though it was able to pierce the heavens. In the eyes of Li Fuchen, earth class low-tier weapons might not be as tyrannical.
“This should be a class 6 demonic beast horn.”
A class 6 demonic beast was also known as a Demon General. A Demon General had already cultivated its demonic spirit and it wouldn’t extinguish. Even after the demonic body had crumbled, it would still survive for a very long time. If the demonic spirit could find a suitable body, it could reincarnate.
Such a demonic beast horn had an extremely high value, ten or twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones would be a minimal estimate.
Apart from masters who reached the Battle Spirit Realm, no one else would be able to obtain any materials from a class 6 demonic beast.
After putting down the demonic beast horn, Li Fuchen picked up the artifact.
It was a wrist protector.
With his qi and awareness entering the wrist protector, Li Fuchen found himself in a gigantic spatial zone.
It was an exaggeration to say it was gigantic, but this spatial zone was at least 30 square meters.
“So it is actually a storage artifact.” Li Fuchen exited the spatial zone and smiled.
General storage bags would only be a few feet to a few meters in size. As compared to this wrist protector, it was pale into insignificance by comparison.
Li Fuchen might not require the spatial zone in the wrist protector now, but after he got stronger, he would certainly obtain more items and there would be items that were larger in size. By then, he would be able to store those items in the wrist protector.
After the wrist protector, it was a ring and it was inlaid with a green crystal.
As Li Fuchen injected his qi into the ring, the green crystal started to emit a green halo. When enveloped by the green halo, Li Fuchen noticed his body feeling very comfortable as some of the old injuries were immediately healed.
“This is a healing artifact!” Li Fuchen’s eyes flashed with a pleasant surprise.
A healing artifact was an item that a martial artist would beg for.
Cultivation was already an act of defiance against the heavens. It was inevitable that injuries would occur. Minor injuries were fine, but there were serious injuries that might cause the martial artist’s strength to decrease by over 50%. Fatal injuries might cause a martial artist to lose all their combat strength, worst case, death.
At those moments, one would have to rely on elixirs or healing artifacts.
As compared to elixirs, healing artifacts were much more convenient and the healing effects were more direct.
Of course, there was another situation that was better than healing artifacts.
That would be the cultivation techniques with healing effects.
There were powerful healing cultivation techniques that could even regrow severed limbs. But such cultivation techniques were extremely valuable and rare. Li Fuchen didn’t even know if the Seven Color Continent would have it.
The next three treasures weren’t as valuable as the healing ring and were just some miscellaneous items.
Finally, it was the Teleportation Board.
To Li Fuchen, the Teleportation Board was the most precious artifact.
Without the Teleportation Board, Li Fuchen wouldn’t be able to visit the Seven Color Continent. Without it, he wouldn’t have a way to return to the East Unicorn Continent.
This was an artifact that changed his fate. But it sentimental values, it was extremely precious.
When entering the Teleportation Board with his awareness, Li Fuchen could see that the liquid energy in the energy pool was already filled up to 70%.
“It seems like continent teleportation required a lot of energy. I wonder how many low-grade spirit stones will be able to replenish the energy.” Li Fucen took out a low-grade spirit stone and placed it on the Teleportation Board. The board instantly produced a suction force and instantly absorbed all the energy inside the spirit stone.
Li Fuchen’s awareness was watching closely at the energy pool. When the spirit stone was absorbed completely, he noticed that there wasn’t any change to the energy pool.
“This… It seems like I will need at least tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones to replenish the energy pool.” Li Fuchen smiled bitterly.
He was still able to gather 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. But he would be witless if he required 20, 30, 50, 70, or even 100 thousand spirit stones.
“There is no need to hurry. I am now at the Heaven Dipper Realm and my body refinement cultivation is only at the 4th level of Reincarnation Realm. It would be useless for me to return now. I should only return when I am competent enough to go against the Evil King and others.”
After some considerations, Li Fuchen felt that he had considered all these much too early.
When he was stronger in the future, it should be much easier to earn more low-grade spirit stones.
After wearing the wrist protector, Li Fuchen placed all the valuable items into the spatial zone of the wrist protector. The spatial zone in the wrist protector was his private space that would be used to store valuable items.
“I will go and pick an earth class low-tier sword art manual from the Secret Manual Tower first.” Li Fuchen stood up and walked out of his courtyard.
The Secret Manual Tower was also a tower with five floors.
According to the outer institute cadet’s handbook, the first floor was stored with the earth class low-tier martial arts, the second floor was stored with earth class low-tier cultivation techniques, the third floor was stored with earth class mid-tier martial arts, the fourth floor was for earth class mid-tier cultivation techniques, while the fifth floor was for earth class high-tier martial arts.
In the East Unicorn Continent, these manuals were what everyone yearned for yet couldn’t obtain, but in the south forest martial institution, they were everywhere.
In normal times, no one could enter the Secret Manual Tower without permission. With the one-time token given by the grey-robed Assistant Dean, Li Fuchen could enter the first floor of the Secret Manual Tower for a single time.
When Li Fuchen arrived on the first floor of the secret manual tower, he saw Wang Heilong, Le Changfeng, and Gao Yue.
The trio were picked the martial arts manual they desired and looked like they were all obsessed as they didn’t even notice Li Fuchen coming in.
Li Fuchen smiled. Everyone had the same desire for earth class manuals, including himself.
As a swordsman, Li Fuchen didn’t consider about other martial arts and immediately arrived at the section for sword art manuals.
The section for sword art manuals was actually just a bookshelf that had a few dozens of manuals.
When Li Fuchen opened the first random manual, he noticed there was only an introduction without any actual content.
“Emotionless Sword Art, earth class low-tier sword art. This sword art emphasizes the intent and not the form. When cultivated to the limits, one could execute power that is emotionless and ignores life. According to a person’s disposition talent, it is possible for this sword art to contest against earth class mid-tier sword arts.”
The first sword art manual was called Emotionless Sword Art. As the introduction stated, it was extremely powerful. Even without looking at the contents of the manual, Li Fuchen knew that this sword art manual was definitely one of the pinnacle existences among the earth class low-tier sword arts.
It was a pity that the Emotionless Sword Dao didn’t fit his sword dao. Without a fitting disposition talent, it was hard to have great achievements.
After placing the Emotionless Sword Art manual back, Li Fuchen picked up the second manual.
“Sky Reversal Kill Sword, earth class low-tier sword art. A sword art that has an extreme nature for killing. It is fine if the sword isn’t brandished, but once it did, blood will be seen. This sword art has extreme nature for killing and extreme burst power. One could burst out with fatal power that is far beyond one’s own limits for an instant.”
Third manual.
“Backwater Sword Art, earth class low-tier sword art. This sword art is just like an expanse of the backwater, …”
“Red Sea Sword, earth class low-tier sword art. The sword is wielded like a red sea, boundless and limitless, …”
“Mountain Subduing Sword Art, earth class low-tier sword art, heavy sword art, …”
After looking through a few sword art manuals, Li Fuchen had a basic understanding of earth class low-tier sword arts.
Earth class low-tier sword arts gave off a feeling of horror and killing. Every sword art was extremely powerful.
But this wasn’t the characteristic of earth class low-tier sword arts…
When any of the earth class martial arts was cultivated to the limits, the martial art intents would break away from the existence of martial arts. Thus, they emphasized on individual willpower and martial art intents’ suitability.
When put in a simple context, if the same earth class martial art was cultivated to the limits by different individuals, the power would be different.
Some would be able to burst out with power that was far beyond the martial art’s capability, some would only be able to execute what was restricted by the martial art.
As Li Fuchen read each sword art manual, he gradually immersed himself in his own world.
After he finished reading the dozens of sword art manuals, one hour had passed.
Right now, no one else was in the Secret Manual Tower. Wang Heilong, Le Changfeng, and Gao Yue had already picked their martial art manual.
“This will be the one!” Li Fuchen picked up a sword art manual and walked towards the entrance of the Secret Manual Tower.
The one guarding the tower was an elder from the outer institute. He had been on a mental journey and had only opened his eyes when Li Fuchen walked over.
“What manual did you pick? Let me take a look.”
Li Fuchen handed the sword art manual over.
“Green Sun Sword Intent. You actually picked the Green Sun Sword Intent. Are you insane? Did you not read the introduction on it?” The outer institute elder with a beard was fuming.
Li Fuchen responded, “I have read it.”
Green Sun Sword Intent. This sword art manual’s name was extremely unique and had actually been named by the sword intent.
In terms of difficulty in cultivation, this was the hardest among all earth class low-tier sword arts, even harder than the Emotionless Sword Art.
The Emotionless Sword Art still had indications to follow and moves to practice. But the Green Sun Sword Intent was completely reliant on the comprehension of the sword intent. After comprehending the sword intent, any random sword move would be the Green Sun Sword Intent’s sword move.
The Green Sun Sword Intent would exhibit extremely different power in the hands of different people. Those with weak innate perception would only be mediocre even if they could comprehend a trace of the Green Sun Sword Intent. Those with powerful innate perception would be able to push the Green Sun Sword Intent to horrifying levels.
It was uncertain if this sword art was an earth class low-tier sword art as there was no way to define the tier and the fluctuation in strength was extremely huge.
Li Fuchen had picked this sword art because he was confident with his perception. Hence, he would rather not pick any if he wasn’t picking the most difficult one.
“No one has been able to reach the completion stage below the Battle Spirit Realm since it appeared in the South Forest Martial Institution. You can still change your mind right now.” The outer institute elder persuaded patiently.
