94: Chapter 94: You've come at the perfect time! I've been waiting for you to play a few rounds with me.
In Mo Zixing's memory, Grand Elder Great Elder Qin Cangyue seemed to have a cultivation of the second level of the Golden Core stage.
Moreover, he had never seen anyone in the Mingyu Sect stronger than the Grand Elder.
Wouldn't that mean...
As long as he could defeat him...
He would be the strongest in the entire Sect?
He wondered if he could use three types of spiritual power to exchange blows with him across realms using this Ultimate Skill.
Mo Zixing was already a bit impatient:
"There's no time to lose, I'll start practicing now!"
He gave Jiang Yuwei a few more instructions, then stood up and walked toward the courtyard.
He wanted to see exactly how strong this Ultimate Skill was.
Coming to the courtyard outside the main hall.
Mo Zixing found a suitable open spot and sat cross-legged.
He began to carefully study the Cultivation Technique he had received.
Scanning through it briefly.
The basic part was incredibly simple, even easier than the Sect's most fundamental Breathing Mind-Cultivation Technique.
Just as the System had noted, it was a difficulty that a Qi Refinement Stage Disciple could easily master.
He didn't expend much effort at all and soon understood the essentials of the first layer.
He immediately began to circulate the spiritual power within his body according to the mnemonic.
In less than half an hour.
Mo Zixing successfully learned the first layer.
With a thought, he output wood attribute spiritual power.
About dozens of finger-sized azure spiritual power small swords appeared out of thin air.
Floating within three feet of his body.
The sword tips were all pointed outward.
These small swords came and went at his beck and call.
They shuttled nimbly through the air according to his will.
"Are the blades this small? As expected, using only one type of spiritual power only yields the strength of the Qi Refining stage."
Mo Zixing flicked his finger.
All the wood attribute small swords in the air disintegrated simultaneously, turning into a sky full of azure light spots that dissipated and fell.
Jiang Yuwei, who was nearby, was attracted by the commotion Mo Zixing made and subconsciously stopped her own practice.
Seeing the sky full of light spots, the Junior Sister couldn't help but exclaim softly:
"Senior Brother Mo, this move is so beautiful!"
Mo Zixing raised an eyebrow and gave her a victory sign.
He had no intention of stopping.
He immediately began to study the second part of the Cultivation Technique.
Starting from the second stage.
The difficulty of the Cultivation Technique suddenly became apparent.
It no longer required increasing the output of spiritual power.
Even though it was a Sword Technique Ultimate Skill, its requirements for Sword Technique Aptitude itself weren't that high.
Instead, it placed what could be called harsh requirements on the fine control of spiritual power.
If it were an ordinary Cultivator trying to precisely control two streams of spiritual power with different attributes simultaneously.
Achieving no conflict would be as difficult as reaching the heavens, let alone fusing them into a Flying Sword.
But this was precisely Mo Zixing's strength.
The various Spiritual Root Aptitude traits he had were all at least of purple quality.
His control over spiritual power of various attributes was already far beyond that of Cultivators at the same level.
The talent of his Lightning, Wood, and Fire triple Spiritual Roots allowed him to be like a fish in water while practicing this part.
Following the guidance.
He first mobilized a trace of pure wood attribute spiritual power, then carefully introduced a trace of lightning-attribute spiritual power.
He let the two slowly intertwine according to the path recorded in the Cultivation Technique.
First attempt.
The two types of spiritual power caused a slight explosion as soon as they touched, making his fingertips feel a bit hot.
Mo Zixing shook his numbed fingers and adjusted the ratio of spiritual power without concern to try again.
Once, twice, thrice...
After only a dozen or so times.
A small azure-purple spiritual power sword successfully condensed and formed in his palm.
This small sword was a size larger than the Flying Sword previously condensed using only wood attribute spiritual power, and its surface was also wrapped in some sizzling electric arcs.
The power it radiated had already successfully reached the level of approximately the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
A hint of surprise flashed in Mo Zixing's eyes.
He casually controlled this dual-attribute Flying Sword and gave a light swing toward a fairly thick stone pillar in the courtyard.
With a "chi" sound.
The stone pillar broke into two pieces in response.
Mo Zixing nodded in satisfaction.
Using two attributes of spiritual power really made the power increase exponentially.
Now, adding just one type could raise the strength from the Middle Stage of Qi Refining to the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
What if another one was added?
Perhaps there really was a chance to exert strength reaching the Early Stage of the Golden Core!
Thinking this way, Mo Zixing became even more motivated.
He immediately focused his mind.
And continued to study the third layer.
He had previously snatched a purple-quality trait, [Burning Flame Body], from Song Cheng of the Qingyun Sect.
Combined with his own Nine Heavens Swift Thunder Fire.
It could serve perfectly as the fire-attribute spiritual power for practicing the third layer of the Cultivation Technique.
As he expected.
The difficulty was still increasing.
The subsequent cultivation could not proceed as smoothly as before.
Multiple attributes of spiritual power naturally repel each other.
A slight oversight would lead to a total collapse.
Mo Zixing failed more than three hundred times in a row.
Every time he failed, the spiritual power would explode.
His fingertips were covered in wounds from the spiritual power explosions, which were then repaired by the self-healing ability of the Candle Dragon Bloodline.
It continued in this cycle.
But he was not impatient.
He simply closed his eyes.
He repeatedly deduced the flow trajectories of the three types of spiritual power in his mind, searching for the equilibrium point between them.
Seeing him so absorbed in practice, Jiang Yuwei considerately withdrew her stance, not wanting to disturb her serious Senior Brother.
Instead, she moved a small stool and sat not far away.
She just rested her chin on her hands, staring unblinkingly at him as he concentrated on his practice.
Who knows how much time passed.
A flash of inspiration occurred in Mo Zixing's mind.
He suddenly remembered the feeling of their spiritual powers blending perfectly without any barriers when he practiced with Liu Qingyan last time.
His heart stirred.
He no longer forcibly suppressed the repulsion of the three types of spiritual power but instead guided them to flow naturally according to their original characteristics.
This time.
As expected, the three types of spiritual power did not clash again.
They slowly intertwined and fused, finally condensing into an arm-sized tri-colored spiritual power Flying Sword.
It radiated a sharp Aura.
Mo Zixing made a rough estimate.
The power had definitely surpassed the level he could normally exert at his current Middle Stage of Crystallization.
And this was only one sword.
What if there were two, three...
Or even dozens or hundreds?
...
Inside the room.
Su Li slowly woke up.
She sat up from the bed, rubbed her still-heavy forehead, and stepped out of the room quietly.
At a glance, she saw Mo Zixing in the center of the courtyard.
He was sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Several Flying Swords condensed from spiritual power surrounded him, and his entire temperament had undergone an earth-shaking change.
Although he was strong before, he always carried a bit of youthful flightiness.
But now, he had an additional restrained yet sharp Aura about him that commanded respect.
He had become stronger again.
Just then.
Mo Zixing slowly opened his eyes.
The Flying Swords around him simultaneously emitted a dragon-like hum.
A majestic Aura suddenly erupted from him, making Su Li's breath catch.
Then it was restrained and vanished without a trace.
"You're awake?"
He turned to look at Su Li, stood up, dusted off his hands, and said eagerly:
"Perfect timing, I was just waiting for you to play a few rounds with me."
