Chapter 1072: Chapter 1070: Originally Very Powerful (4th Update)

In fact, Lan Su also has a mindset similar to Ji Yu’s, inclined towards the Heart of Scarlet Youth. Unfortunately, Lan Su’s talent for martial cultivation is not considered good. At least, compared to Ji Yu, it’s too far off, so he never hoped that Lan Su could comprehend the Sword Rhyme.

"Alright, I need to rest." Su Chen continued.

"Young Master Su, tomorrow I will come to find you and we shall head to the back mountain forbidden area. I think the Sword Spirit in the back mountain forbidden area will not disappoint Young Master Su." He Shoudao bowed to Su Chen again.

At the same time.

In the distance, Du Chi appeared as well.

He stood at a distance, staring gravely at the Sword Scar left by Su Chen, his heart filled with complexity.

Astonished at Su Chen’s grand gesture, being able to bestow and leave behind even the Sword Rhyme!!! How powerful and confident he must be.

Also fearful, this Sword Rhyme, without saying it could let disciples of the Cloud Sword Sect understand it, at least, could allow every disciple to gain a great harvest in the path of the sword.

It’s imaginable that Su Chen’s action effectively elevated the strength of all Cloud Sword Sect disciples in one go! Even the older generation powerhouses like He Shoudao in the Cloud Sword Sect gained enormous benefits!

Such a simple act from Su Chen nearly pushed the Cloud Sword Sect directly to the top among the Ten Great Powers.

"It seems I must warn my father to make good relations with the Cloud Sword Sect." Du Chi thought inwardly. Now, it is obvious that Su Chen and the Cloud Sword Sect are already allied, unchangeably, becoming settled events. If so, then making good relations with the Cloud Sword Sect is better than being antagonistic.

One must say, Du Chi is really smart, very adept at assessing the situation.

"What a pity. It’s a pity I am not a swordsman." Then, Du Chi shook his head regretfully. Although he also uses a sword, he does not follow the path of the sword but rather the Demon Spirit Path, so even though he covets the Sword Rhyme left by Su Chen, he clearly knows that he can’t get any inspiration or enlightenment from it. So, he shook his head and disappeared, returning to his attic.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

He Shoudao arrived.

Su Chen got up early as well.

"Young Master Su, let’s go!" He Shoudao said with a smile, full of spirit, how could he not be spirited? He had observed in front of that giant stone all night, and although he did not gain significant insights, after a night’s time, his path of sword was evidently solidified a bit.

Su Chen nodded.

Soon.

They reached the back mountain forbidden area.

This was a cave, a dark cave.

The cave entrance was not large, with a diameter of about two meters.

Around the cave, there were no trees, flowers, or grass, only deathly silence.

Beside the cave, there were Martial Cultivators guarding.

There were three rows in total, with forty-eight people in all. The strength of these forty-eight people was very strong, none of them below the Origin Domination Realm, vividly showcasing the powerful foundation of the Cloud Sword Sect.

These forty-eight people had expressionless faces and were all quite old, each around a million years in age.

"They are the Forbidden Area Guards, each of them has been guarding the forbidden area for hundreds of thousands of years." He Shoudao said, "The forbidden area was left by the Old Ancestors of the Cloud Sword Sect. Inside is a Sword Spirit, this Sword Spirit is very, very, very strong. Once, before his Ascension, the Old Ancestor said that if this Sword Spirit is released, it would bring great calamity to the Ningtian Continent, so he set up the Prison Array to confine the Sword Spirit within."

"What’s the benefit of me entering the forbidden area?" Su Chen asked.

"Sword Techniques!" He Shoudao replied solemnly, "Perhaps because the Sword Spirit was too bored from being imprisoned, it focused on researching Sword Techniques. It created an unknown number of terrifying Sword Techniques. But these sword techniques are either too illusory or too complex. Overall, of the sword techniques it created, only a very, very small number can be used by us."

"Simply put, the Sword Spirit created many Sword Techniques, but how much can be comprehended and gained by the observers depends on themselves? Most of those created by it you people of the Cloud Sword Sect can’t comprehend, just watching blankly?" Su Chen said with a smile.

This is like having a mountain of gold but not being able to dig it!

He Shoudao said with some embarrassment, "I once went in, but only comprehended a Top-Grade Wild Level Sword Technique."

"Alright, then I’ll go in now." Su Chen was already a bit eager, raising his eyes, looking at the cave entrance, and said solemnly.

He Shoudao nodded.

And just this second.

Suddenly.

At the entrance appeared an old man.

A shabby old man.

This old man’s waist had a wine flask, was slightly hunched, had a bald head, yet very long eyebrows, a very thin face, just skin and bones.

His left eye was completely white.

A very strange old man.

Su Chen’s expression became serious because the other party gave him an extremely, extremely dangerous feeling, an intuition of danger.

"Old Mu." He Shoudao was first stunned, then bowed, respectfully bowed.

"You want to let him enter the forbidden area?" The old man glanced lightly at Su Chen.

"Yes!" He Shoudao gritted his teeth, nodding, appearing very, very, very tense and scared.

"He cannot enter." The old man said directly.

"Why? Please do enlighten us." He Shoudao’s face turned white suddenly.

This old man who appeared out of nowhere was the Forbidden Area Old Man. No one knows how old he is. Before He Shoudao, the sect masters of Cloud Sword Sect and the one before the last, and even the one before that, this Forbidden Area Old Man was already present.

Always staying in the forbidden area, guarding the forbidden area.

Essentially never appearing.

It was the second time He Shoudao had seen the Forbidden Area Old Man.

The Forbidden Area Old Man does only one thing, guards the forbidden area. Other matters, even if Cloud Sword Sect were to perish, are not his concern.

He Shoudao completely did not expect the Forbidden Area Old Man would appear here to stop Su Chen from entering, completely unexpected.

"Your Martial Arts, do not take the sword as the sole focus. The sword, to you, is dispensable." The Forbidden Area Old Man did not answer He Shoudao but looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen nodded.

The old man was speaking the truth.

The sword is just one of the ways Su Chen manifests his martial arts skills. The core remains the strength of his Physical Body, Three Powers Transformation, Undying and Indestructible, and so on.

He is unlike a true Sword Cultivator, where having a sword in hand and not having one are completely different combat powers.

Right now, even if Su Chen doesn’t use a sword and uses a staff or a knife, he can still exert strong combat power.

"Therefore, you should not go in." The old man said lightly, "This forbidden area is a place that truly belongs to Sword Cultivators."

"The sword is not important to me. But, my path of the sword is also very strong. Why can’t I enter?" Su Chen raised an eyebrow.

This was the truth.

The true thinking in Su Chen’s heart.

Is it possible that because I scored 100 in math, 100 in Chinese, and 99 in English, you can say my English scores are poor? An English score of 99 is not poor, others might only have 70 or 80. It’s just that math and Chinese are too overpowering, by comparison, English seems not impressive.

Maths and Chinese are Su Chen’s Undying and Indestructible, Divine Mansion, Physical Strength, these are too powerful, powerful beyond human. And English is Su Chen’s path of the sword, similarly very powerful.

"You think your swordsmanship is formidable?" The old man’s eyes flashed for an instant amidst the stillness.

"It is inherently formidable." Su Chen said unceremoniously, solemnly.

"Well then, how about the old me test you?"

"Fight!" Su Chen smiled, fearless, only confident.
