Chapter 128: Chapter 127: Innate Spiritual Object: Ancient Sword Remnant Soul

“Martial Saint?”

Yang Shi involuntarily startled, then quietly slipped out from his own tent.

He followed a white figure ahead, circumventing the military camp, and arrived at the forest on the outskirts of the town.

They both stood still, and the Martial Saint turned around to size him up for a moment.

“You are… Liu Wuheng’s disciple, Yang Shi?”

Yang Shi’s heart gave another jolt, but after pondering for a moment, he did not deny it.

“Yes, my master is Liu Wuheng. How did you recognize me?”

“Your True Qi.”

“Oh.”

Practicing the Mingxin Technique, and with it being a unique Inner Breath Heart Method created by the Martial Saint himself, it was natural to recognize it.

“Two years ago, I met your master. He mentioned that he had taken in a disciple with exceptional talent, whose talent was not far from mine. Looking at you today… what Wuheng said wasn’t false. The one who locked onto my Qi mechanism today was you, wasn’t it?”

“Yes, it was I, but your Qi mechanism… is more than ten times stronger than mine.”

Yang Shi humbly said.

“That’s because you have yet to reach the Divinity… Once Divine Thought opens, the Qi Mechanism surges like the tides.”

“Would the Martial Saint consider imparting to Yang Shi the method to reach Divinity?”

Yang Shi knelt on both knees, performing the gesture of taking a master.

The Martial Saint stroked his own beard and chuckled, “Do you know what the first thing your master did when he saw me was?”

“What? Is my master still well?” Yang Shi also hadn’t heard from his master for many years… a decade had passed with just one goodbye.

“He asked me to teach you my skills if I ever saw you in the future. That’s why I called you out here in the dead of night…”

After hearing this Yang Shi was overjoyed, knocked his head on the ground, and said, “Thank you for the master’s teaching!”

“Stand up. Even if your master hadn’t asked, I would still need to pass down my skills… I haven’t seen anyone more suitable than you to inherit my mantle, neither in the Danai Dynasty nor in the neighboring Fierce Sun Dynasty.”

The Martial Saint’s mouth curled into a smile, seemingly very pleased with Yang Shi’s talent.

Yang Genshuo also smiled in front of the screen.

“Perhaps this is the mutual admiration among top warriors… From what I saw during the day, the Martial Saint is also by no means a pedantic man.”

Although Yang Genshuo didn’t know the Martial Saint’s deeds, his talent was extremely high, he had a sincere heart for the Martial Arts, and his practice was very righteous. It seemed the man wouldn’t be bad in any case.

Quite unlike those Demon Cultivators, whose Cultivation Techniques barely contained anything proper.

“Your physical condition is different from those nine people; I see your fleshly body has already reached the limits of Innate Grandmaster. What you lack is the method of sudden enlightenment. Today, I shall impart to you what it means to reach Divinity…”

“The path of Martial Cultivation, Body Refinement, Qi Cultivation are the foundation, yet most people forget… Ascending to Innate Grandmaster is the unity of Essence, Qi, and Spirit. Without cultivating the spirit, a person’s body is like a bucket missing a wooden plank, reaching a certain height, they can advance no further.”

“Martial Cultivators generally believe that cultivating Divine Sense is something only a Cultivator can do, and can only be learned from Immortal Cultivation Techniques. However, people are born with Divine Sense, and we Martial Artists can also train it.”

“I observed hundreds of Immortal Cultivation Techniques in various Sects, found the channel through which Cultivators train their Divine Sense, and then blazed a new trail… Creating a technique for Martial Cultivators to train their Divine Sense.”

“I named it: ‘Visualization Technique’.”

“Once the fleshly body has reached its peak, visualize Divine Items to train the Divine Sense. Once the Divine Sense breaks through, it can merge all life’s learning into a Divine Skill, transcending the realm of Innate Grandmaster, thus advancing to the Divinity Realm.”

Hiss~

Who would’ve thought it could be like this!

Both Yang Genshuo and Yang Shi were astounded as they listened.

“This Martial Saint is truly a genius blessed by heaven, creating something out of nothing. But this name… seems to have been heard in some novels, I wonder if it’s the same?”

Yang Genshuo searched online and found various interpretations of Visualization Technique, with no definitive consensus. It was clear from what the Martial Saint had said that it had nothing to do with the Immortal Cultivation World where Yang Shi was.

The idea of sending a top-notch Visualization illustration directly to make Yang Shi an instant saint fell through.

“Master, how should I visualize?”

Yang Shi couldn’t wait to train his Divine Sense, knowing that his path forward from here was crystal clear!

The Martial Saint spoke unhurriedly, “The practice of Visualization Technique requires two aspects, one is the mental method, which I can impart to you, and the other is… a Divine Item.”

“Divine Item?”

Yang Shi repeated, somewhat puzzled.

“Cultivators call it a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object. It is an Innate Spiritual Object used to break through the Foundation Establishment Stage. It usually contains a certain power of heaven and earth. We martial cultivators can comprehend heaven and earth by visualizing the Divine Item, thereby training our Divine Sense and condensing our own Divine Skills.”

“Right, the choice of Divine Item will also affect the Divine Skills you develop in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Shi inhaled sharply, “Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects… these are things that can’t be bought with spirit stones in the Xuan Stone Sect, and it’s also the reason why there are so few cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Many who have reached Qi Cultivation Perfection can’t find their own Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object and remain trapped in the Qi Cultivation Realm.”

A Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object could fetch a price of over 50,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones in Xuanbao Town!

But they were priceless.

Although the Yang Family was quite wealthy, to buy a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object, they would have to sell all of the Grain Avoidance Cakes they had saved up over the past 10 years.

“The conditions are so harsh… no wonder no one has succeeded in their training; how could crude martial cultivators have the chance to touch such fine objects that even cultivators would fight over?”

“Even if they got in touch, they couldn’t afford it!”

Such things, unlike Innate Spiritual Energy, cannot be regularly produced from a Spirit Containing Land, it’s merely a matter of different grades and years.

A Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object is distinguished by its spiritual affinity; only those with destiny can obtain it.

Yang Genshuo felt that Yang Shi would need to manage quite a bit to find a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object.

“You must not think the conditions too harsh, because martial cultivators only need to visualize, not absorb it into their bodies. A Divine Item can be a treasure passed down in a sect, and all generations of disciples can visualize it.”

“Oh… that’s a relief then.”

Otherwise, with the four gold-eating beasts at home, it would give Yang Shi a splitting headache.

At the very least, now he could share one with Yang Fujian, and only needed to find 3 more for Yang Fu, Yang Fushuo, and Yang Fuqing…

As Yang Shi thought about this, the smile on his face completely vanished.

He began to understand just how heavy the responsibilities of a Family Head in an Immortal Cultivation Family truly were.

Seeing the troubled look on Yang Shi’s face, the Martial Saint didn’t scare him any further.

“The Divine Item I used to achieve the Divinity Realm happens to be available for your use.”

A ring on his hand twinkled slightly, and a half-section of a wooden sword appeared in his hand.

It seemed unremarkable, like common trash that could be found anywhere, but mysterious fluctuations emanated from where the wooden sword was broken.

Yang Shi’s eyes filled with a grey fog as the Qi Mechanism of heaven and earth unfolded before him.

The half-section of the broken sword was condensed with numerous extremely complex Qi Mechanisms, seeming to contain some sort of grand dao of heaven and earth, which made him dizzy after just a moment of looking.

Yang Genshuo hurriedly reviewed the information about this broken sword.

[Ancient Sword Remnant Soul]

[Innate Spiritual Object]

[Attribute: Gold]

[An ordinary half-section of a wooden sword that has gradually become an Innate Spiritual Object due to containing a wisp of Divine Thought from a great power.]

“This thing should be an Innate Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object that can be used by Gold Element cultivators, a truly good item. Yang Shi’s newly acknowledged master is really generous!”

“However… Since Yang Shi is both a disciple of Liu Wuheng and a disciple of the Martial Saint, how will they address each other in the future?”

“Separately? I call you master, and you call me junior brother?”

While Yang Genshuo was letting his thoughts run wild, the Martial Saint was explaining the Divine Item to Yang Shi.

“This Divine Item is known as the Ancient Sword Remnant Soul. It’s a treasure that I have visualized for dozens of years. It seems to contain a wisp of remnant thought from a great cultivator, encompassing an unsurpassed sword dao. My Divine Skill, the Qi Sword, was realized from it…”

“Today, I give this Ancient Sword Remnant Soul to you for visualization.”

After taking it, Yang Shi bowed deeply and said, “Thank you, master, for imparting the treasure. Once Yang Shi succeeds in visualization, I will return it to master.”

“Hmm, I will now transmit the Visualization Technique mental method to you…”
