Daoist Competition-Chapter 934 - 207: Three Vein Sword Transmission

Zhang Yan flipped open the last page of the book in his hand, only to find the words "Shaoqing Three Veins" appearing before his eyes.

Even he couldn’t help but feel a bit unsettled, but after a brief moment of excitement, his expression returned to calm.

Other secret techniques are more easily explained, they might be circulated. However, this Three Veins Sword Transmission is the most crucial secret of the Shaoqing Sect, and there’s no way it could be so easily known by the Zhenluo Alliance. Even if they managed to get their hands on it, how would they dare to give it to me?

Moreover, how could the Three Veins Sword Skill be fully recorded in just this one page?

Though the Shaoqing Sect is entirely composed of sword cultivators, it is a great sect of a thousand years, no less than the Mingcang Sect, and naturally has many different sword cultivation methods.

But if divided broadly, there are actually only three direct lineages, namely "Slaughter Sword," "Extreme Sword," and "Transformation Sword."

That day in Yao Yin Mountain, the Shaoqing Sect disciple Kang Tong walked the path of the "Slaughter Sword" lineage.

This method is extremely fierce, specializing in the Way of Offensive Killing. It emphasizes a single slash cuts through all, regardless of your Dharma Treasures, Divine Skill, or Dao Technique, all shall bow beneath my sword!

The Extreme Sword lineage, on the other hand, takes the sword escape technique to its extreme. If trained to the Great Mahayana realm, when one raises the sword and leaps, it’s like a shooting star breaking through the sky, far surpassing the speed of light and electricity. In an instant, they can traverse the eight directions of the world.

Cultivators of this lineage, even if they can’t defeat their opponent during a fight, can still safely escape far away, making them incredibly difficult to deal with.

As for the Transformation Sword lineage, when practiced deeply, one can transform into countless sword lights, trillion rays like stars, and also integrate myriad Daoist skills, evolving countless wondrous uses.

However, among the three lineages, this path is also the most intricate and the most difficult to achieve mastery.

The disciples of the Shaoqing Sect rely on these Three Veins Sword Skills to navigate the world, making it the first great sect of the East Splendor Continent.

Zhang Yan considered that although he had a sword ball, the Mingcang Sect ultimately did not have such superior swordsmanship to pass down. In the future, if given the opportunity, he wouldn’t mind visiting the Shaoqing Sect. If he could learn a secret spell, it would not be unworthy of his talent in the Sword Dao.

However, thinking of it now, the time is not ripe yet.

He lowered his head and flipped further down the book. As expected, this page did not describe any Dharma technique but instead recorded the lives of three formidable elders from the Shaoqing Sect.

Zhang Yan smiled slightly, understanding the intentions of the author. The book began with scattered informal techniques, making it appear insignificant, but adding the Shaoqing Sect’s name was meant to elevate the author’s status.

Thinking it over, although the book wasn’t of much use, bringing it back could still offer some novelty for the disciples. So he casually collected both volumes into his sleeve bag, waved his sleeve to tidy the table in front of him, and sat with eyes closed to cultivate.

Half a month’s time flew by, and it was soon early October in early winter; the branches were cold, and the mountains were filled with chill.

However, at this moment, within the Earth Fire Sky Furnace, fierce flames blazed, smoke billowed, and heat waves churned, contrasting greatly with the outside world.

Liang Changgong and Wei Shudan were watching that stone pit anxiously; it’s been two months, yet the Winged Cliff Divine Statue remained motionless.

But they dared not let down their guard. It must be known that it is not a dead object and would never willingly be refined.

To refine this divine statue into a Dharma treasure, it was necessary to mix in various treasure materials, which required opening the furnace midway.

This was the most dangerous moment. The divine statue was very likely to violently resist at this time. Therefore, they specially borrowed the "Earth-Breaking Qiankun Leaf" from Zhang Yan to guard the furnace door and prevent the statue from escaping.

Liang Changgong held the Qiankun Leaf in hand, his expression slightly tense. After all, the divine statue was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Third Realm True Master; with a mere gesture, mountains could shake and the earth could quake. Even though much essence qi and mana had been consumed by the furnace fire, it was still beyond their ability to resist.

The two men carefully observed again, believing the time was right, they nodded to each other, signaling to initiate the furnace.

Wei Shudan took out a yellow banner from behind, held it firmly with both hands, and waved it. Several dozen stones around the pit suddenly flew up. Instantly, as if opening floodgates, steaming mist rolled out continuously.

At the same time, Liang Changgong also offered the Qiankun Leaf in his hand into the air. The golden leaf unfurled gracefully, hovering in front, immediately hanging down a ten-zhang wide curtain of golden light, blocking the path to the furnace door.

Although the Winged Cliff Divine Statue was suppressed by prohibition, with a wisp of residual soul left by the Yiya Upper Master, it knew a bit of the refining skill. It understood that if they were to refine it into a treasure, they would have to add materials. At that time, they would have to open the furnace door, which would be its chance.
