Chapter 376: Chapter 374: Green Origin Sword Scripture
"This is the Heavenly Destiny Sword, forged from superior refined gold. It slices through iron like mud and shaves hair off skin with ease. It’s just a step away from transforming into a Spiritual Artifact. If you open your Soul Palace, you can even directly take it in and refine it into your Lifebound Weapon. Many Inner Sect, even True Disciples of the Sacred Land use this as their Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, slaying demons and devils, their power renowned throughout the world."
The examiner drew out a sword, moved it slightly, and immediately Sword Qi surged, with the blade shimmering inch by inch, displaying its fierce, bold, and domineering nature.
"Hiss! I’ve heard before that entering the Sacred Land is like ascending to the heavens in one step, and I didn’t quite understand why. Today, I’ve truly opened my eyes."
The speaker was a collateral son from the Hou’s Mansion of the Country of Fragrance, named Cao Yong. His mother was only a concubine, and because of his high aptitude, the head wife, fearing it would affect her own son’s standing, disliked him. Although he had enough cultivation resources, many good things were out of his reach.
He gazed at this Heavenly Destiny Sword, his heart incredibly shaken.
Entering the Sacred Land is akin to ascending to the heavens in one step.
This is what it truly means.
Even Zhong Lin felt some sentiment seeing this sword. For Loose Cultivator Martial Artists, to forge a Lifebound Weapon, they must seek out Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures everywhere, and many, due to inferior materials, end up with Lifebound Weapons that, even after nurturing within the Soul Palace to become Spiritual Artifacts, are inherently flawed, significantly reducing their power. Some even resort to nurturing a piece of jade into a Lifebound Spiritual Artifact and dare not wield it in battle, fearing its destruction.
Materials that Loose Cultivator Martial Artists struggle extensively to gather are directly presented by the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land in the form of forged sword embryos, and the top-tier kind at that. Just thinking about it makes one envious.
This is the difference.
Zhong Lin was also fortunate, having discovered a Geng Metal Vein. Otherwise, he might still be collecting materials to forge his Lifebound Weapon.
In the end, the examiner handed out a jade scroll to the group.
Zhong Lin opened the jade scroll, and the large characters "Green Origin Sword Scripture" immediately appeared on it.
"This is our Heavenly Sword Sacred Land’s basic skills ’Green Origin Sword Scripture’, an Earth Level Middle Grade cultivation technique. Regardless of the cultivation techniques inherited in your families, I still suggest that you all switch to the ’Green Origin Sword Scripture’. Though it’s only an Earth Level Middle Grade, it’s the foundation of all cultivation techniques in our Heavenly Sword Sacred Land. In the future, you can switch to other Sacred Land techniques without cost, and this technique yields incredibly abundant Spiritual Origin with qualities of sharpness and penetration, making it unrivaled at the same level." the examiner said loudly.
Hearing this, Zhong Lin felt a twinge, realizing even the basic techniques are at the Earth Level Middle Grade, no wonder those so-called sects cannot compare with the Sacred Land, it’s simply a dimensional suppression.
No wonder it bears the name ’Green Origin’, since this world’s very name is Qingyuan World.
"Alright, go find your rooms. Afterwards, you can cultivate here or take on tasks to contribute to the Sect. Since the Sect has bestowed these items upon you, you must not disappoint the Sect but rather make contributions, slay demons, sharpen your spirits, and improve yourselves."
"Yes."
All of them paid their respects and walked out with their beginner’s gifts.
"Such good things, unfortunately, my Lifebound Weapon is a spear, which my father painstakingly sought out skilled craftsmen to forge, not suiting me."
Chu Yu picked up the Heavenly Destiny Sword, and with a few swishes, blades of sword light crisscrossed, displaying immense power.
Zhong Lin’s heart stirred, and he asked, "Miss Chu, your Lifebound Weapon is a spear, yet the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land rules over the entire Qingyuan World with Sword Dao, won’t this influence your future martial path?"
Chu Yu gave Zhong Lin a peculiar look and said, "Sword Dao is merely the strongest Martial Arts of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, but it doesn’t mean other martial arts aren’t strong. As far as I know, thirty percent of the Sacred Land’s True Disciples don’t follow the path of Sword Dao, and the Deputy Sect Master dominates invincibly with an iron spear, bearing the title Spear King."
"I see, I’ve been ignorant." Zhong Lin nodded.
"Zhong Lin, keep in touch. It’s hard to survive in the Outer Sect without teaming up. If there’s a task, I’ll invite you."
Lastly, this lady walked forward, quickly disappearing from Zhong Lin’s sight.
"Teaming up?"
Zhong Lin chuckled and stepped out of the new courtyard.
...
The entire Heavenly Sword City was essentially prepared for the Outer Sect disciples; there were only a few thousand True Disciples, but the number of Outer Sect disciples were the most.
As for True Disciples...
Zhong Lin looked up at the faintly visible mountain peaks in the distance.
"Very soon."
This was Zhong Lin’s first day at the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land. After passing the assessment and receiving his items, he went to the Wuyang Courtyard.
The Wuyang Courtyard was so large that it might as well be called a city, with numerous independent mansions, thousands upon thousands of them.
And there were many such large courtyards like the Wuyang Courtyard, such as the Chongguang Courtyard, Lingqiu Courtyard, Wanren Courtyard, Taixu Courtyard, etc., where the outer disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land resided.
Tens of thousands of disciples had their own lodgings, and each large courtyard was more grand than even the secular Imperial Palaces.
Zhong Lin arrived at his living quarters, and at a glance, found the vast courtyard with pavilions and towers, streams flowing, goldfish frolicking, and emerald birds darting to and fro.
The air was suffused with Primordial Qi, akin to a celestial realm.
Little wonder that whether noble disciples or others, all strive to become disciples of the Sacred Land, the benefits are truly abundant.
Zhong Lin changed into the Heavenly Silkworm Treasure Clothes, and immediately felt completely refreshed, with an invigorating breath blowing towards him.
"The Outer Sect disciples of the Sacred Land can go to the Pill Tower to receive a True Essence Pill every month for cultivation, but the quantity is limited. The True Essence Pill may be a Fifth Grade elixir, but it’s of little use to me now; I’ll need to refine my own elixirs!"
"In the Sacred Land, it’s not that everything is settled after passing the assessment. Even though a certain number of pills are provided monthly for cultivation, to get more, sect contributions are needed, like taking on sect tasks. After all, this Sacred Land isn’t a charity."
"What I need to do now is to enhance my cultivation, strengthen my Sword Intent, and acquire higher grade elixir recipes."
"There should be a place dedicated to Alchemy within the Sacred Land. With my status as a Seventh Grade Alchemist, I could join and, as a Pill Master, it will be easier to enhance cultivation, obtain elixir recipes, and also gain sect contributions to exchange for stronger skills and martial arts, to further develop Sword Intent."
"I also need to visit Tianshi Peak; with Tianshi Peak’s influence, more resources can be acquired."
Zhong Lin briefly contemplated his next steps.
At this moment, he felt a sense of openness in his heart, a new platform already acquired, to leverage for his maximum improvement.
Probably the next hundred years won’t require wandering around, the entire Heavenly Sword Sacred Land is ample for considerable growth.
With a slight smile, he retrieved the "Green Origin Sword Scripture" from his Storage Bracelet, and upon scanning with Divine Thought, a stream of information surged in.
