Ling Tian Sword God-Chapter 781 - 779 Sword Spirit Embryo_1

"Why hasn’t Ling Chen shown any sign of movement? His Cultivation this time is taking far too long."

Outside the secret chamber, Shen Qianlang looked somewhat anxious. This time, Ling Chen’s meditation was different from previous sessions. He was deeply immersed, having gone three days without eating or drinking, and had not awakened. He wondered if there was something wrong with Ling Chen’s practice.

"Don’t worry. It might be just the opposite; Brother Ling Chen might have gained deeper insights again," Luo Xian’er said from beside them.

Even though she said this, she was also very worried.

「At this moment, in the Will Space.」

The Will Projections of the Human Emperor and Taibai Sword Immortal were still present. They observed Ling Chen, who seemed to be undergoing a transformation, with expressions of surprise.

"The aura of a Sword Spirit Embryo! It seems this young man has found his Sword Way," Taibai Sword Immortal said, a surprised look on his face.

"He’s still far from it, just touching the threshold." The Human Emperor shook his head. In his heart, however, he was also somewhat shocked; he hadn’t expected Ling Chen to comprehend something from their Swordsmanship so quickly and even condense a Sword Spirit Embryo.

With Ling Chen’s current Cultivation, it was impossible for him to condense a true Sword Spirit, so it was merely a Sword Spirit Embryo.

When one’s Sword Intent reaches the third stage, it meets the conditions for condensing a Sword Spirit.

"With such a disciple, I’m afraid I must congratulate you, Ancestor Human Emperor," Taibai Sword Immortal said with some envy, cupping his hands towards the Human Emperor.

"What joy is there to speak of?" The Human Emperor shook his head again, his expression serious. "You should know that becoming a Supreme Expert is no easy feat."

"In the Ancient Times before my own, countless legends spoke of Supreme Experts. According to ancient records, figures like the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and other mythical beings, were all Supreme Experts. However, after my era, the cycle for the emergence of Supreme Experts grew increasingly long."

"This isn’t because there were fewer martial practitioners, but rather that the world itself was in decline."

"Although the number of Ancient Emperors might have been somewhat exaggerated, it was still more than three times that of later generations. For instance, the legendary wise Ancient Emperors—Emperor Yao, Emperor Shun, and Emperor Yu—were born in nearly the same era. One can only imagine how prosperous the world was in those ancient times."

"Mm, the spiritual energy of this world is indeed becoming thinner." Taibai Sword Immortal nodded. "When I Shattered Void, it took a tremendous effort. If not for a stroke of luck, I might not have succeeded."

The decrease in the number of Supreme Experts was a direct result of the spiritual energy on the Continent becoming increasingly sparse, which naturally made breakthroughs more difficult.

"One can only do their best and leave the rest to fate. I hope he succeeds in becoming a Supreme Expert. Perhaps then, we might meet him in another world," Taibai Sword Immortal said with a smile, stroking the beard on his chin.

No one knew what this "other world" he spoke of truly was.

"Ancestor Human Emperor, the power of this Will Projection of mine is depleted. I’m afraid I must take my leave." Taibai Sword Immortal’s Will Projection suddenly blurred.

He had originally left this Will Projection to impart the Green Lotus Sword Sense. Now that Ling Chen had comprehended his own Sword Intent, the mission of this Will Projection was clearly complete.

The Human Emperor nodded, and in his sight, Taibai Sword Immortal’s Will Projection slowly dissipated and faded away.

Throughout the long eons, he had lost count of how many of his Will Projections had vanished. Now, this was his sole remaining Will Projection on the Tianyuan Continent.

However, the Human Emperor did not linger. He transformed back into a wave of light and entered the Heavenly Mansion Ring on Ling Chen’s hand.

PHEW...

After a long while, Ling Chen slowly exhaled, finally emerging from his state of Cultivation.

"The Sword Spirit Embryo has finally condensed successfully." A sharp light flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes. The Sword Spirit is a product of advancing Sword Intent. However, to condense a complete Sword Spirit, one’s Cultivation must reach the level of a Sword Saint.

Even though it’s only a Sword Spirit Embryo, it’s more than enough to control my five types of Sword Intent.

It seems both seniors have already left. As soon as Ling Chen fully awakened, he exited the Jade Wall space. Otherwise, he would have remained immersed within it.

"Brother Ling Chen, you’re finally awake!" At this moment, Ling Yin, Shen Qianlang, and Luo Xian’er approached and greeted him softly.

"I’m sorry to have kept you all waiting." Ling Chen nodded, a hint of apology on his face.

This Cultivation session had lasted for over a month; it had indeed been quite protracted.

Ling Chen felt somewhat guilty that the three of them had accompanied him in this dark, sunless secret cave for nearly two months.

"How did it go? What did you gain from The Immortal Sword Jade Wall?" Shen Qianlang asked, looking at Ling Chen with anticipation.

"This trip was worthwhile." Ling Chen didn’t elaborate but chose not to hide anything. He continued, "Within The Immortal Sword Jade Wall, there is indeed an unparalleled Swordsmanship. If I’m not mistaken, this Swordsmanship is the long-lost Divine Scroll, the ’Green Lotus Sword Song’."

"’Green Lotus Sword Song’?" Shen Qianlang and Luo Xian’er almost held their breath. As natives of the Nine Provinces, they were naturally familiar with the great renown of the "Green Lotus Sword Song." This was especially true for sword practitioners; none among them would be unaware of its existence. However, no one could have imagined that this Divine Scroll of Swordsmanship, believed to have vanished along with the Taibai Sword Immortal, would be hidden within The Immortal Sword Jade Wall.

They both looked at Ling Chen with a mixture of envy and sorrow. The Immortal Sword Jade Wall was originally the greatest secret of their Qingcheng Palace. Yet, neither of them possessed the requisite talent; they didn’t even qualify to view The Immortal Sword Jade Wall.

Seemingly noticing the change in their expressions, Ling Chen waved his hand. "You don’t need to be too disappointed. I will impart the mantras and moves of the ’Green Lotus Sword Song’ to you both. After all, it rightfully belongs to your Qingcheng Palace."

"Thank you, Brother Ling Chen!" A touch of joy appeared on Shen Qianlang’s face. However, Luo Xian’er, beside him, still looked troubled and preoccupied with worries.

She had her own concerns. The "Green Lotus Sword Song" is such profound Swordsmanship. Even if she and Shen Qianlang could obtain its mantras and moves, they would likely only be able to learn a very limited amount.

"Let’s go. It’s time to leave." Ling Chen looked at Ling Yin and the other two. The Immortal Sword Jade Wall was no longer effective for him.

"Mm." The three of them nodded. Then, the group resealed the secret chamber. The poetic verses and their profound artistic conception carved on The Immortal Sword Jade Wall remained. If someone else were to find this place in the future, they could continue to comprehend the mysteries of the Jade Wall.

Ling Chen would not destroy The Immortal Sword Jade Wall simply because he had learned the "Green Lotus Sword Song"; he wasn’t the type to sever the opportunities of others.
