C2 Above mastery

Xuan Chen frowned, and comforted her: "Sis, there will be a way out before we get to the mountain, wait for me to retrieve my iron ore hill, then we can talk."

Young master, that bastard Zhao Xinghua will not let us take back the iron ore hill, cough cough! After Li Zhong finished speaking, he couldn't help but start coughing again.

"Uncle Zhong, I know what to do. You don't have to worry about that, you can go and rest first." Xuan Chen said.

Li Zhong nodded, his expression did not decrease in the slightest, and with the support of a servant, he left.

Xuan Chen and Xuan Qingya returned to the back hall together, where breakfast was already placed on the table.

White Deer Rice porridge with three pieces of meat stewed from wild beasts. Although the style was simple, the taste was exquisite and the nutrition was rich.

After eating his fill, Xuan Chen put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said: "Sis, I'll head back to the courtyard as well."

Xuan Qingya nodded and handed over a cotton napkin to Xuan Chen, saying gently: "Little Chen, don't be in such a hurry to cultivate, don't hurt your body."

Xuan Chen took the cotton napkin and wiped his mouth, put it down, then nodded: "Sis, don't worry, I will pay attention."

Xuan Chen got up and walked out of the back hall, then returned to the courtyard and entered his room. On the bedside table that was painted black, he picked up the green blade sword with a black beast tattoo on it, turned around and walked out of the room, and went back inside the courtyard.

At the east corner of the courtyard was a tall maple tree with lush foliage and a pavilion. It cast a large shadow over the ground. A gentle breeze blew past, creating a rustling sound.

"Zhao Xinghua is a cultivator of Second level of the Qi Jing and Mai. Only by breaking through to the Second level of the Qi Jing and Mai level will I be able to defeat him and take back control of the iron ore hill. However, although my bottleneck has loosened, breaking through it isn't something that can be done in a day or a night. This requires an opportunity. "

Xuan Chen thought, he stood under the shade of a tree, holding onto his sword sheath and closing his eyes, the Four Seasons Sword Art's Spring Rain Sword Technique was flowing through his mind.

Suddenly, he unsheathed his sword and a cold sword light sliced through the air.

Xuan Chen moved his body, like a swimming dragon, and waved his long sword, causing sword light to surge, like a spring rain, thin like silk that flowed endlessly.

"Rain of Spring!"

"Heavy Misty Rain!"

"Chunlei's disease!"

Although the Spring Rain Sword only had three moves, every move had more than ten different variations. Xuan Chen had trained this sword technique for eight years, but he had still been able to reach mastery of it.

According to one's level of proficiency, martial arts techniques could be divided into initial stage, initial stage, initial stage, and mastery stage.

Training in a martial skill was easy at the initial level, but difficult at the initial level.

Furthermore, if one wanted to reach a superb mastery level, then it would require a long and arduous training. Furthermore, both talent and luck were indispensable. However, once he mastered it, the power of the martial skill would be increased by more than twofold.

Xuan Chen suddenly felt that today's training made him feel as if he was a fish in water, the various obscure and mysterious things that happened in the past were suddenly enlightened, as though he had suddenly been enlightened.

After practicing a set of sword technique, it was as smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water. Furthermore, the sword technique gradually broke away from the restrictions of the sword technique and had endless changes. It was exquisite and exquisite.

"This... Could it be that this is the mastery level that can be used as one pleases? "

Xuan Chen realized in a moment's time, he did not expect that the sword technique that he had mastered, would be mastered by him so easily.

Sword light danced in the air, beautiful and dazzling.

Xuan Chen was immersed in training the sword, his sword moved at will, his body moved at the speed of the sword, his movements was fluid and unrestrained.

Logically speaking, the highest level of proficiency in sword arts should have been attained, but when Xuan Chen continued to practice his sword arts, especially the move 'Spring Rain Like Silk', he still had a feeling that he had not finished the practice.

"What is going on? Could it be that there is an even higher level of martial skills above the Mastery Stage?"

Xuan Chen thought, he still had a feeling that something was amiss, as his sword techniques continued to change. Countless sword lights condensed into a single entity, and poured down like a waterfall, continuous and unending.

"No, no, no."

Xuan Chen's sword technique was constantly changing, trying to break through it.

On the forehead of his soul, the Yin Yang Sword Seal released a faint golden radiance. Within the radiance, there seemed to be countless afterimages flashing past.

In the end, the countless of swords instantly transformed into a sword technique, Xuan Chen's mind flashed, and he instantly comprehended it.

"This' Spring Rain like Silk 'sword move is endless like the spring rain, containing vigorous life force, but it should be filled with life and death, and there should be hidden death's killing intent behind it. This is the true entanglement of life and death, the highest realm of martial skills being yin and yang."

When he understood everything, Xuan Chen's face revealed a happy expression. He changed his sword techniques again, in the midst of a gentle sword light, killing intent and life force were concealed, perfectly fused together.

He modified and refined the first move, 'Rain of Spring Silk'.

"I never thought that the Yin Yang Sword Seal would have such an incredible effect on the cultivation of sword arts."

Xuan Chen thought in his heart. He saw a fake mountain not far away, and leaped forward. With a flash of sword light, the Green Edge Sword easily split the fake mountain formed by a pile of strange stones.

If it were in the past, the fake mountain would have already collapsed and flown out. But this time, it was like a hot knife cutting ointment, almost soundlessly.

A gust of wind blew past and the rock garden collapsed with a bang.

"This improved 'Rain of Spring Silk' has at least doubled its power. With this card in hand, even if I were to face an expert at the early stage of Second level of the Qi Jing and Mai, I have the confidence to deal with it."

Xuan Chen laughed confidently, suddenly, he felt that his body was extremely weak, as though he had been hollowed out, and immediately used his sword to stabilize his body.

Although the improved 'Spring Rain like Silk' was extremely powerful, the consumption of Innate Qi was also huge. Just a single slash had nearly exhausted all of Xuan Chen's Innate Qi.

Returning to his room, Xuan Chen took out a small black wooden box from underneath the bed. Opening the small black wooden box, he found a porcelain bottle inside.

He removed the stopper and poured out a milky-white pill the size of a longan from the bottle. A light fragrance wafted into his nose.

This is a Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill, one pill is equivalent to five days of bitter cultivation, but Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill are worth a lot, one pill costs a thousand silvers, and Xuan Chen only had three left in this bottle.

If that last move had not exhausted his true qi and caused Xuan Chen to feel that the bottleneck had loosened once again, he would not even be willing to take it out and use it.

Xuan Chen swallowed the Low Grade Qi Meridian Pill and felt the Qi in his body surge. As he recovered his Qi, he closed his eyes to focus and used his soul to feel the location of the second elemental pulse.

In this world where martial arts prevailed, the strong could move mountains and fill the seas, just like gods and devils. And the basis of all this, the precondition for cultivation, was the awakening of the divine soul.

His soul could sense the spiritual sea, and could also sense the energy of heaven and earth. Cultivating was using the soul to control the energy and absorbing it into one's body, opening up seven elemental pulse s in one's body, reaching the seventh level of the Qi channels.

However, the elemental pulse was hidden deep within the body, and one had to sense it in order to be able to cultivate it, which was why Xuan Chen was trapped in the first level of the Qi channels for more than two years.

The seven elemental pulse in the human body each had different attributes, they were respectively metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and yin. The first stage of the Qi Meridian Realm was to open the first elemental pulse, Earth, and elemental pulse.

The Earth elemental pulse was made of earth, and the Qi had a heavy meaning. After opening it, the body would be nourished with true energy, causing the body's defensive capabilities to be greatly strengthened. As for the gold elemental pulse, it was gold, so true energy was sharp and condensed. After opening it, true energy could be released, gaining an even stronger attack.

Therefore, it was impossible for one to be a match for Second level of the Qi Jing and Mai at the first level of the Qi Meridian Realm. This was because the difference between the two did not only lie in the total amount of true qi, but also in the quality of true qi.

After an unknown period of time.

Xuan Chen's mind was completely immersed in the world within his body. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise in the air, and a golden dragon appeared and danced in the air. Then, its head and tail intersected, forming an irregular golden circle, branded in the air.

Xuan Chen who had his eyes closed had a joyous smile on his face, because he had sensed where the golden elemental pulse was.

Naturally, he had entered the Second level of the Qi Jing and Mai, and at this moment, the Yin Yang Sword Seal between the eyebrows of his soul suddenly shone brightly.
