Chapter 739: Perfect Swordsmanship

“Swordplay? Aren’t you going to help me clear my meridians or raise my Qi of True Essence or something like that?” Ling Chuxi was dumbfounded. Compared to martial techniques, the cultivation of True Essence was the actual base. Learning a sword style without the corresponding True Essence cultivation felt like putting the cart before the horse.

“With my current spiritual power, do you think I can?” Cang Yuan scoffed.

“Alright, but is one style really enough?” Ling Chuxi asked hesitantly. It was already so difficult for Cang Yuan to awaken, and if she really wanted him to help clear her meridians and raise her Qi of True Essence, he might need to sleep for a thousand years before awakening again. Who knows, his soul might even completely disappear after that.

However, just teaching her one style seemed too little. After all, Ling Chuxi firmly believed that you could definitely have too much of a good thing.

“This style alone is sufficient for you to protect yourself. Also, I have only integrated the Cang Yuan Sword Soul and Sword Essence. With my abilities now, I can only teach you this one style,” Cang Yuan explained.

After he finished speaking, Cang Yuan’s figure slowly appeared in Ling Chuxi’s mind.

“Look closely, I can only demonstrate this once. Whether you can comprehend it or not will depend on yourself,” Cang Yuan said sharply as he started to move.

The sword in his hand swung lightly, and his body followed the movement, so slow it didn’t look like he was moving at all.

Ling Chuxi could feel the lightness, heaviness, slowness, and swiftness all integrated into this one simple yet majestic move. The body moved like a weapon, with the swordsman and sword becoming one. Heaven and earth, divine thoughts… everything was encompassed in this one move.

Every move of his sword followed an odd rhythm, weaving the mysteries of ten thousand worlds and galaxies.

If Ling Chuxi had to describe it, there was only one word: Perfect!

Ling Chuxi’s mind was completely immersed in Cang Yuan’s sword movements, studying every detail and change, comprehending the intrinsic depth of his swordsmanship.

Eventually, Cang Yuan’s movements finally stopped.

Ling Chuxi was still deeply immersed in her thoughts, and could not remove herself for a long time. After a while, her mind finally retreated from within.

“Got it?” Cang Yuan asked.

Ling Chuxi nodded slowly, then thought about it and shook her head. The move appeared to be simple, but there were actually endless changes in it, including the highest understanding of heaven and earth. How could it be comprehended so easily? She was lucky Cang Yuan had only taught her this one style. If there were more, she probably wouldn’t have been able to remember any of them.

“With your Core of Martial Path, you should be able to comprehend it. Take it slow,” Cang Yuan said, his tone weary and his figure starting to fade.

“Wait!” Ling Chuxi knew that Cang Yuan sword spirit’s spiritual power had been used up and he was about to fall into a deep slumber again.

“What is it?”

“How can I find the other Cang Yuan shards?” Ling Chuxi had experienced the depth and strength of this swordplay, and was now keen to learn the other six styles. However, according to Cang Yuan, he couldn’t teach her the other six styles unless the other Cang Yuan shards could be found.

“If I have sufficient spiritual energy to nurture my mind and soul, I can condense into a sword spirit body. I can help you search for the other Cang Yuan shards then,” Cang Yuan said, his voice soft.

“Sufficient Spiritual energy? You mean the Ink Jade Crystal?” Ling Chuxi thought about it and asked.

“It doesn’t necessarily have to be an Ink Jade Crystal. Other natural treasures that can nurture the mind and soul work too.” Cang Yuan’s voice became more and more distant, and finally was heard no more as he once again fell into a deep sleep.
