Chapter 289: Chapter 170: Nine Transformations of Liu Yun_1

Translator: 549690339

Looking at the thunder and lightning that appeared on the Flying Sword, Zhou Yun Feng’s face revealed a hint of surprise, “Little junior brother, your comprehension is quite good. You are able to manifest the Thunder Condemnation Sword Art so quickly. Well then, try the Wind Scroll Sword Art.”

Lin Yi nodded, his face full of eagerness. Before learning the swordsmanship, even with the Top Grade Wind and Lightning Sword, he could only manifest some basic power.

However, upon learning the swordsmanship, he can fully manifest the power of the Flying Sword and, through the swordsmanship, deploy even stronger effects.

Without having learned the Thunder Condemnation Sword Art, he was unable to exploit the thunder and lightning power contained in the Flying Sword. With the swordsmanship, however, he could manifest it, and in future, he could even transform the sword into thunder, becoming a Sky-Condemning Thunderstorm. Additionally, he could make the Flying Sword split out a Thunder and Lightning Sword Qi.

The reason why Loose Cultivators are weaker than Sect Disciples is not only due to various resources but more significantly, they lack access to advanced swordsmanship.

In Qing Yun City, they can only purchase very ordinary swordsmanship, and the price is extremely high. As for the advanced swordsmanship created by Golden Core Zen Ren, it is unattainable and can only be learned by direct disciples.

This is why Gold Sword Zen Ren directly transmitted the swordsmanship and insights into his mind, instead of using the Jade Slip.

Although there are some sword techniques that can be exchanged in the Inner Sect Scripture Hall, compared to Thunder Condemnation and Wind Scroll, they are far below par, and the merits required start from tens of thousands.

“Elder brother, I’m ready.” Lin Yi switched the Sword technique to Wind Scroll Swordsmanship. Controlling the Flying Sword, he arrived above Zhou Yun Feng’s protective shield. The sword started to rotate continuously, releasing Wind Power.

Regrettably, Lin Yi couldn’t form a tornado. The Sword technique had failed.

However, he’d failed intentionally. Since he already had a basic understanding of the Wind Scroll Swordsmanship, naturally, he should be able to apply it. Yet, even in front of his big brother, he couldn’t appear too outstanding.

Lin Yi sighed, “Alas, elder brother, to understand and gain insight into this Wind Scroll Swordsmanship might take some time. I used to practice the Five Thunder Spell, so I’m more familiar with thunder and lightning.”

“As for wind powers, my understanding is not vast. Even though Elder Liu from the Scripture Hall tricked me into learning the Cloudstream Wind Technique before, till now, I have not mastered it.”

Zhou Yun Feng noticed the failed swordsmanship technique and smiled as he walked over. Patting Lin Yi’s shoulder, he said, “Don’t be discouraged. When I first started, I didn’t master the Wind Scroll Swordsmanship immediately. Elder Liu deceived the Qi Refining Disciples into cultivating Cloudstream Wind Technique.”

“This body refining technique, although left by Ancestor Liu Yun, no one has managed to cultivate it successfully till now.”

“But, now you have reached Foundation Establishment, you can go to the Scripture Palace to learn Nine Transformations of Liu Yun. This feather-weight technique is related to wind, and easier to cultivate than the Cloudstream Wind Technique.”

“Direct Disciples can learn three cultivation techniques or spells each year without spending any merit points. Nine Transformations of Liu Yun is a renowned feather-weight technique created by the sect’s Ancestor Liu Yun and only direct disciples can learn it. You need to go to the Scripture Grand Palace at Liu Yun Peak.”

“Thank you, elder brother. I was also planning on doing just that.” Lin Yi gave a bow of respect. He had heard about this famous feather-weight technique from the Cultivation World. After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, he had been delayed due to other matters.

Now that direct disciples did not need to spend merit points, naturally, he wanted to cultivate it.

Zhou Yun Feng gently nodded, “For a while, you should contemplate on the cultivation insights passed down by the sect master and learn the Nine Transformations of Liu Yun. If there’s anything you don’t understand, come find me anytime.”

Lin Yi agreed. While the master leads the way in cultivation, the individual’s personal practice matters most. Master Golden Sword, being a Golden Core practitioner, naturally cannot guide him in every step. Occasional guidance is already a rare opportunity, and in most circumstances, comprehension still relies on oneself.

After bidding farewell to Zhou Yun Feng and leaving the Golden Sword Hall, he took off on his Flying Sword towards Liu Yun Peak. The sooner he learned Nine Transformations of Liu Yun, the better. His cultivation of Cloudstream Wind Technique had already reached the second level. Coupled with this feather-weight technique, he was curious about any potential unusual effects.

After all, Elder Liu had once said that Ancestor Liu Yun created Cloudstream Wind Technique because he felt that Nine Transformations of Liu Yun, a feather-weight spell, was not perfect. Therefore, this body refining technique was created to complement it and manifest a greater power.

Even though cultivators have Flying Boats and Flying Swords for transportation, feathers-weight techniques are rarely used for travel. However, during combat, or in some environments where using a Flying Sword is impossible, feather-weight techniques are very important.

Just like Nine Transformations of Liu Yun, legendary tales say that when cultivated to a high level, it allows movements as unpredictable as clouds, making it impossible to predict their actual location, naturally rendering counter-attacks ineffective.

After arriving at the Ferry Platform on Liu Yun Peak, Lin Yi headed straight for the Scripture Grand Palace. Some precious cultivation techniques and spells are stored on Liu Yun Peak, and they are not taught at the Scripture Halls on the other Golden Core Peaks.

If Cloudstream Wind Technique could be cultivated by anyone, it would only be stored on Liu Yun Peak and never taught by Elder Liu to the Outer Sect.

On his way to the Scripture Grand Palace, an alluring woman exited from Liu Yun Hall. The Inner Sect Disciples passing by all bowed their heads and respectfully saluted.

Upon seeing this stunning woman, Lin Yi quickly paid his respects, “Greetings, Jade Illusion Zen Ren.”

He had seen Jade Illusion Zen Ren during the expedition to the Secret Realm. Truly an unmatched beauty, a mere smile could captivate one’s soul. Her every move naturally involved illusions.
