Chapter 267: It More or Less Knows
There were important information in the speech of the Edgeless Heavenly King.
As the youngest Heavenly King of the North River Continent, his strength and talent were naturally extraordinary.
His horizons were extraordinary.
In w.a.n.g Che’s opinion, a person who was able to say that they themselves were also a treasure was a genius who could have huge achievements even in the cultivation world or those martial worlds.
It could only be said that a Heavenly King was indeed a Heavenly King.
!!
He was limited by the cultivation system, but to be able to reach this step, he was definitely not something ordinary people could compare to.
As for the subsequent breathing technique, it was too ordinary for w.a.n.g Che.
It should be the breathing technique derived from a Soul Guiding Skill. It could sense the changes in its body and control it to a certain extent.
It could not absorb the soul power of the outside world either.
This breathing technique was not special or powerful.
However, it was useful for most Contract Soul Masters who were interested in training themselves.
As for the sword move that was swung, it was actually the usage of a more profound sword technique.
The Edgeless Heavenly King did not use his soul power in that strike.
However, the sword technique was too brilliant and contained sword force that could affect the surrounding soul power fluctuations.
From there, it could use the sword force to guide the surrounding soul power and cause powerful destruction.
It was not limited to using the martial soul to complete the sword technique.
It involved control of natural energy.
w.a.n.g Che estimated that the Edgeless Heavenly King’s sword cultivation should have reached the Sword Domain realm.
Sword Domain was the Sword Dao Domain.
Only at this realm could he swing the sword so easily. Even without using his martial soul, he could still affect the soul power changes between heaven and earth.
After the speech, many students were fascinated.
Their comprehension of cultivation increased.
The speech lasted for two hours, and many students asked for guidance.
The Edgeless Heavenly King replied to all their questions.
w.a.n.g Che took this opportunity to sense the realm of this Edgeless Heavenly King.
It was not just strength, but also knowledge.
It was a pity that the Blazing Sun Heavenly King had only met him once.
This time, he could more or less understand the speech of the Edgeless Heavenly King.
After the speech, many students began to leave.
He was very satisfied today and listened to it.
“Student w.a.n.g, Princ.i.p.al Gu and the Edgeless Heavenly King want to talk to you. Don’t be in a hurry to leave.”
Shen Mingluan saw that w.a.n.g Che was about to get up and hurriedly said.
“It’s the reward, right?” w.a.n.g Che thought for a moment, “No problem.”
As he spoke, Shen Mingluan brought w.a.n.g Che out of the central square and arrived at a quiet lake.
The lake rippled and the scenery was beautiful.
The students went back to rest. It was very quiet.
Princ.i.p.al Gu and the Edgeless Heavenly King were sitting in a pavilion on the sh.o.r.e.
Yang Quan stood beside the Edgeless Heavenly King with his head lowered and said nothing.
The Edgeless Heavenly King’s lecturing continued.
“Heh, you ran away from home to cultivate for a year. I thought you were powerful?”
“Hmm? What happened in the end? A Magnetic Sword’s sword cultivation is even higher than yours!”
“Tell me, who are you to be proud of? Who are you to say that school is useless?”
“Why aren’t you denying it? Didn’t you say that you wanted to surpa.s.s me? Are you still going to surpa.s.s me now? It’s a good thing to have a goal. I want you to surpa.s.s me, but I hope that you don’t say this because of your arrogance. Instead, you really want to treat this as a goal.”
“If you really want to surpa.s.s me in the Sword Dao, you have to go to the top universities to broaden your horizons and learn.”
“I only taught you my sword techniques.”
“What you want to learn is your own sword!”
“To develop your sword techniques, what’s the use of learning my sword techniques in a corner of this world? The top universities are filled with talents and countless experts. This world is even more vast and boundless. What can you achieve from cultivating by yourself?”
“Do you still want to cultivate by yourself?”
“This is not how pure cultivation is.”
“You have to first see and learn to a certain extent and have your own insights before cultivating the Sword Dao. You’re just a nineteen-year-old kid, yet you still want to cultivate in seclusion? Do you really think your talent is peerless?”
The Edgeless Heavenly King lectured his son very happily.
Yang Quan listened in silence.
Princ.i.p.al Gu did not speak.
“The Edgeless Heavenly King’s upbringing is really harsh,” Shen Mingluan whispered. “However, Yang Quan really suffered a considerable blow this time.”
“This is also the Heavenly King’s intention,” w.a.n.g Che said.
“Junior, you understand well.” Shen Mingluan smiled.
w.a.n.g Che thought to himself, ‘If the Edgeless Heavenly King really wanted his son to sweep through everything…’
Yang Quan would have known w.a.n.g Che’s strength.
He was a Heavenly King. He could easily investigate the situation in the Thunder Soul Earth.
The military did not announce the battle focus to the public, but to a Heavenly King, it was not difficult to take a look.
He could even teach Yang Quan a few moves to deal with w.a.n.g Che specifically.
However, the Edgeless Heavenly King did not do that.
Therefore, Yang Quan did not know much about him.
“Reflect on yourself.”
The Edgeless Heavenly King waved his hand and looked at w.a.n.g Che. A smile immediately appeared on his serious face, “Student w.a.n.g, you’re here. Good, good, good!”
With that, he waved at w.a.n.g Che.
w.a.n.g Che: “…”
This Edgeless Heavenly King did not seem to be looking at him for the first time?
“What a talent!”
The Edgeless Heavenly King was rather enthusiastic, “The battle just now was very good! To be able to nurture a Magnetic Sword to this extent, it’s an eye-opener, an eye-opener!”
“Student w.a.n.g, your Magnetic Sword is very extraordinary!” Princ.i.p.al Gu smiled and said, “We were standing aside just now and even the Heavenly King was stunned. I feel that you’re wasting your talent in our academy.”
“But I can’t bear to let you go to another school.”
“I’m conflicted!”
Princ.i.p.al Gu sighed.
“Princ.i.p.al, you’re joking,” w.a.n.g Che said. “If I go to other top universities, I might not be able to nurture it so well.”
If he went to another college, the resources might be better for now, but the long term growth might not be that good.
As time pa.s.sed, it would become more obvious. It was not apparent in the first year.
In his second or third year, after w.a.n.g Che obtained more rare soul plants, the little caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword would grow even faster.
Especially since the Thunder Soul Earth here was also very beneficial to the cultivation of the Magnetic Sword.
“You’re being modest.” Princ.i.p.al Gu smiled and said, “I called you here because the Edgeless Heavenly King rewarded you.”
“Reward?” w.a.n.g Che looked at the Edgeless Heavenly King.
“That’s right.” The Edgeless Heavenly King pointed at Yang Quan, “Student w.a.n.g, I’m very pleased that you defeated this kid, so I have some rewards for you.”
w.a.n.g Che: “…”
He was indeed his biological father.
‘You have to reward me for defeating your son.’
Yang Quan was silent.
“Then I’ll thank the Heavenly King first.” w.a.n.g Che did not argue.
‘If there’s a reward, take it.’
The Edgeless Heavenly King took out a sword-shaped rock.
“This is the Heavy Edge Sword Trial Stone.”
The Edgeless Heavenly King said slowly, “I’ve been nurturing it in my arms all year round. It’s a good thing that I asked someone to make when I was an intermediate Contract Soul Master. The stone contains my comprehension of the Heavy Edge Sword Force for many years.”
“If a sword-type soul pet trains in sword techniques on this sword-shaped rock, it will greatly increase the proficiency of the soul skill.”
“It can improve the sword moves below the ten-thousand-year core soul skill by quite a bit.”
“It’s for you.”
The Edgeless Heavenly King handed it to w.a.n.g Che.
It was only the size of a pebble.
However, w.a.n.g Che knew that the stone itself also contained some storage metal that could change its size.
Simply put, this thing was used to accelerate soul skill cultivation.
There was also a very strong sword force inside. Using a sword move to slash it was very helpful in the soul pet’s soul skill cultivation advancement.
Of course, it was only limited to sword-type soul skills.
It was naturally not simple to nurture for a long time.
It was indeed very useful for cultivating the Magnetic Sword.
Perhaps the Magnetic Sword could even comprehend some sword force of the Edgeless Sword martial soul from this.
‘This battle was worth it.’ w.a.n.g Che thought to himself.
The Magnetic Sword felt good to obtain such a good thing.
“There’s another reward that depends on you.” The Edgeless Heavenly King said.
“There’s a reward?” w.a.n.g Che was slightly stunned.
This Edgeless Heavenly King was very generous.
The Edgeless Heavenly King nodded slightly and said, “Your Magnetic Sword’s sword move is very special. I believe you’re also proficient in the Sword Dao, right? I plan to teach your Magnetic Sword a unique move that I created myself.”
“A unique sword skill?” w.a.n.g Che was surprised.
The word unique meant that it was naturally not easily spread.
Wasn’t this reward a little too generous?
“It’s definitely very difficult, right?” Shen Mingluan smiled and said, “Heavenly King, you like to coax people. When I was in high school, you were invited to partic.i.p.ate in an exhibition match in our high school to motivate our students to cultivate sword techniques.”
“After the performance, you taught all the third-year students a sword technique. I remember it now.”
“It’s also a unique sword technique called the Heaven Rending Tower. At the time, it sounded very powerful, but it excited our students. All of them clamored to learn it…”
“In the end, until the graduation of the third year, no one could learn this unique sword skill.”
“Ahem!” The Edgeless Heavenly King coughed and said, “You can’t blame me. It’s definitely very difficult to learn a unique sword skill. At the time, your princ.i.p.al wanted to take something out of me. How could I have been in the mood? That was why I offered a unique sword skill…”
“Actually, if you can really learn it, I’ll definitely see you in a different light.”
Shen Mingluan smiled.
w.a.n.g Che understood. He pulled out the Magnetic Sword and placed it aside to watch.
“Then what are you going to teach this time?” Shen Mingluan said, “Don’t worry, I don’t have any talent in the sword. I won’t be able to learn it even if I see it.”
“Triple-Layered Sword Peak,” said the Edgeless Heavenly King.
“Just hearing the name, I know it’s not good.” Shen Mingluan smiled, “Uncle Yang, can you change to a more powerful one?”
“Among my unique sword techniques, this move’s power can be ranked in the top three.” The Edgeless Heavenly King smiled and said, “An even more powerful move will be very difficult to learn. The Heaven Rending Tower that I taught you two years ago was created by me when I was a high-level Contract Soul Master.”
“The name sounds powerful, but it’s actually just fancy. This move is a sword skill I created when I became a Heavenly King. Which one do you think is better?”
Shen Mingluan was slightly stunned. That was really extraordinary.
“Then, can you demonstrate it?” w.a.n.g Che asked.
The Heavenly King’s sword skill… the Magnetic Sword could still be studied.
“Kid, come and learn too. Let’s see how much you can learn.”
The Edgeless Heavenly King shouted at Yang Quan.
Yang Quan walked over.
He had naturally never learned this new unique sword skill.
Moreover, most of the Edgeless Heavenly King’s unique sword techniques were very difficult.
Without a certain cultivation in the Sword Dao, he could not even understand anything, let alone learn it.
The Edgeless Heavenly King stood up and looked at the lake ahead.
The next moment, his palm moved and a black sword appeared!
It was almost the same as Yang Quan’s Heavy Edge Sword.
However, the Edgeless Heavenly King’s sword looked thicker and heavier.
There were even some mountain-like patterns on the surface of the blade. They should be the mysterious power attached to soul pets, but they didn’t flicker.
“The principle of this move is not complicated. It uses soul power to stack on top of the sword. If you have a sword-type martial soul, it can do it better, if not, you can also use other swords.”
“I paid attention to strength because I comprehended it from observing the mountains that had increasingly higher peaks among the million mountains.”
“With a swing of the sword, the sword force is endless, like a mountain peak going higher and higher, constantly shaking and suppressing, giving the opponent no chance to breathe. Defeat them instantly!”
With that, the Edgeless Heavenly King turned around. With the Edgeless Sword in hand, his aura surged as his soul power circulated slightly in the Edgeless Sword.
In the next moment, his body seemed to have turned around. His sword slashed at the lake ahead like a torrent, and then it did not stop at all. Its speed was extremely fast, like an invisible afterimage. Every time it transformed, the sword qi would be swung out.
He swung five times in a row.
His soul power was barely used.
However, the lake ahead exploded like a tsunami, almost overturning the entire lake.
Then, the Edgeless Heavenly King’s sword aura froze. The huge wave seemed to have stopped and quickly fell.
Fortunately, the water-type soul pets inside had been brought out ahead of time, or else this move could easily kill all the soul pets in the lake.
This exaggerated power made Shen Mingluan feel a little numb.
This was because she did not sense any powerful soul power fluctuations from the Edgeless Heavenly King.
As for the figure of the Edgeless Heavenly King, she did not understand it at all.
“What a powerful sword move.” Princ.i.p.al Gu couldn’t help but say, “I was wondering why you asked me to clean up the soul pets in the lake. If your realm isn’t high enough, you can’t learn this move, right?”
“It’s so difficult. Little Yang, you’re not being generous.”
“Remember it for now, you can go back and learn it slowly. This move is not complicated. You can learn it through a large amount of practice,” the Edgeless Heavenly King said. “It’s just that it’s rather difficult to master it.”
With that, the Edgeless Heavenly King looked at Yang Quan and said,
“Kid, how much do you know?”
“Almost everything,” Yang Quan said. “In a few days, I should be able to unleash the First Peak.”
“Not bad.”
The Edgeless Heavenly King did not nod either. He looked at w.a.n.g Che, “Student w.a.n.g, look at yourself and your Magnetic Sword. How much can you comprehend? I can use it again.”
w.a.n.g Che thought about it and found it difficult to answer.
“No need, no need,” w.a.n.g Che said, “The Magnetic Sword said that it almost knows how to use it already.”
With that, w.a.n.g Che patted the Magnetic Sword in his hand.
“Right?”
(I _ I)?
The Magnetic Sword wanted to say, ‘I don’t know how to!’
“Oh? Your talent is indeed very high!” The Edgeless Heavenly King’s eyes lit up, “Come, little guy, show me? It’s okay if you fail.”
“…” Magnetic Sword.
“It said that it has no confidence. It’s a little afraid,” w.a.n.g Che said, “It wants me to help it.”
With that, w.a.n.g Che held the Magnetic Sword and took a few steps forward. His figure changed slightly.
Swoosh!
Several graceful sword lights shot out with a sword cry.
Boom!
The majestic sword force shook the surrounding wind. The distant lake surged again, and there were still several huge waves that reached the sky. The power was shocking and terrifying!
It was not much weaker than before!
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
