Chapter 3: Peak of the Vein Tempering Realm!
Although the system’s voice was faint, to Meng Changqing’s ears, it was like a raging storm.
It could actually increase martial arts proficiency?!
This was a bit too domineering.
Martial arts were difficult to train, especially those at a higher level.
It requires factors such as aptitude, comprehension, resources, and more.
Many people might spend decades without achieving mastery!
“This extra reward is just as good as obtaining attributes.” Meng Changqing was excited.
However, extra rewards weren’t easy to come by.
They required an increase in goodwill to have a chance to appear.
It seemed that his luck today was pretty good!
“A skill card can increase proficiency by one level. My ‘Nine Shadow Sword Art’ has already reached a partial mastery. If I use two cards, it will be perfect!”
Meng Changqing thought to himself.
The “Nine Shadow Sword Art” was a martial art of the same level as the “Bronze Armor Art.”
It’s just a sword technique martial art.
It focused on technique.
When cultivated to perfection, the sword moves were extremely fast, capable of splitting into nine sword shadows, each with power not inferior to the original sword!
It had tremendous killing power!
“The remaining card can also be used to elevate the ‘Bronze Armor Art’ to the perfect level!
“Perfect!”
Meng Changqing immediately formulated a plan.
“System, elevate the ‘Nine Shadow Sword Art’ to the peak level!”
Meng Changqing said directly.
The grades of martial arts were: Low-tier, Human-tier, Profound-tier, Earth-tier, and Heaven-tier.
Between each level, there were low, medium, and high tiers.
The so-called martial arts proficiency was actually proficiency.
Initial Understanding, Entry, Partial Mastery, Mastery, and Perfection.
Ding!
[Consuming two proficiency cards!]
As the words fell, countless insights appeared in Meng Changqing’s mind.
He absorbed them frantically!
These were all about the correct usage techniques of the Nine Shadow Sword Art!
Soon, Meng Changqing’s mastery of the Nine Shadow Sword Art reached its peak!
“Nine Shadows!”
Meng Changqing stood up.
His blood and qi surged within his body.
Drawing his sword from its sheath, he thrust forward.
In an instant, sword light, like snow, actually split into nine sword shadows!
The aura of sharpness filled the entire room!
Clang, clang, clang!
On the sturdy walls, there suddenly appeared ten sword marks!
There were even beams of light shining through the sword marks.
Clearly, they pierced through.
It’s worth noting that even outer disciples’ buildings were constructed from relatively sturdy materials.
It’s not easy to break through them!
It could be seen that the power of this sword was quite formidable.
“Not bad!”
A smile appeared on Meng Changqing’s face.
Compared to before, the power of the Nine Shadow Sword Art had undergone a qualitative leap.
With this sword technique, it’s probably easy to slay even a ninth-level Vein Tempering Realm expert!
Of course, provided that the opponent’s martial arts proficiency hadn’t reached perfection!
“System, elevate the ‘Bronze Armor Art’ to the fifth level!”
Meng Changqing sheathed his sword.
He used the last proficiency card.
Crack, crack, crack!
A familiar sensation appeared, but this time, it was even more ferocious!
His physical body was trembling violently!
The muscles tightened, as if steel bars were twisted together, emitting an extremely heavy aura. Like a mountain! Towering and indestructible!
Clang, clang, clang!
Meng Changqing lightly tapped his completely bronze arm, making a sound like copper and iron.
“Truly worthy of the perfected ‘Bronze Armor Art.’ Its defensive power has become even more terrifying.” Meng Changqing was satisfied. He withdrew the Bronze Armor Art, and his skin returned to normal.
No one could have imagined that beneath his seemingly slender physique, there was such terrifying body-refining proficiency!
“Hmm?” Meng Changqing suddenly raised his eyebrows. He noticed that the barrier of his realm was somewhat loosened! This was the rhythm of a breakthrough!
But it’s understandable. He was already on the edge of a breakthrough, and now that he had obtained a fourth-grade root bone, a breakthrough was naturally imminent!
“What a series of pleasant surprises.” Meng Changqing was in a good mood. He immediately sat down cross-legged and began to break through!
The next day, the unique bell of the Tai Xuan Sect echoed throughout the world, sweeping across the land. In the golden light of dawn, Meng Changqing pushed open the door and walked out.
At this moment, his aura was strong and full, obviously having broken through to the ninth level of Vein Tempering Realm! He had unlocked all the secrets of the major veins!
In the process of martial arts cultivation for humans, many human body secrets were unlocked through practice. The major veins’ secrets were the first secrets! The major veins contained vast qi and blood. Opening each one greatly enhances various aspects of the body’s functions, whether it’s strength, speed, or defense, etc.
In martial arts cultivation, there were nine realms in total: Vein Tempering Realm, Aperture Connecting Realm, Sea Cleaving Realm, Dao Creation Realm, Divine Attainment Realm, Life and Death Realm, Marquis Ranking Realm, Royal Path Realm, and Supreme Transcendence Realm!
“Next, it’s time to break through to the Aperture Connecting Realm!” Meng Changqing exhaled a breath of air.
He glanced upward slightly, looking towards the direction of the inner sect. To become an inner sect disciple, one must have the strength of the Aperture Connecting Realm and also pass through the Puppet Valley. This was not an easy task. But Meng Changqing must go.
Not to mention the various benefits and treatment that come with being an inner sect disciple, if he wanted to fully utilize the system’s functions, he had to go to the inner sect.
That’s where the sect’s geniuses gather!
Just as he was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door, interrupting Meng Changqing’s thoughts.
He frowned slightly and went to open the door.
Outside stood a disciple with a slightly restrained expression.
“Senior Brother Meng, I’m a disciple of the Task Hall. If you don’t complete the task soon, it will exceed the deadline of three months,” the disciple said respectfully.
“I almost forgot.” Meng Changqing realized.
As a sect disciple, while enjoying the sect’s treatment, one must also fulfill certain obligations.
That’s the sect’s tasks.
One must complete a task every three months. Otherwise, they’ll either stop receiving future training resources or be expelled from the sect!
It’s also a kind of training in a sense.
Yesterday’s Xia Han was injured while performing sect tasks.
“Thank you for the reminder,” Meng Changqing nodded.
Even though they were outer sect disciples, there were still hierarchical divisions among them.
Disciples above the seventh level of the Vein Tempering Realm could enjoy more benefits because they had the opportunity to enter the inner sect.
For example, at present, many reminders about news were specifically sent to them, so they wouldn’t forget.
At the same time, Meng Changqing also used his probing eyes to check the situation of this disciple.
Unfortunately, there weren’t any good attributes. But that’s normal. True geniuses had long since entered the inner sect!
“I must hurry to enter the inner sect!” With a slight intake of breath, Meng Changqing closed the door and headed towards the Task Hall.
