I use the entry-level skills to create longevity

Chapter 155: Fleeting, the Lonely Sword of the World (Two in One)

"Lord Zhao, you must pay attention to the people I circled on this list. Don't ignore them!"

After reading the information in the intelligence, Sikong Haotian circled some people. These were the people he felt had the potential to become disciples of the Purple Mansion Holy Land this time. There were also some people who had great potential and might become disciples of the Purple Mansion Holy Land in the future.

Just like Yang Xuan, he is not that old, but his martial arts skills are extraordinary.

There are several people on the list who broke through the marrow cleansing realm before the age of 20. Those people are 18 or 19 years old and can still participate in the next Jiannan Martial Arts Competition.

This is actually quite normal.

Just like those people who are currently ranked high on the list, they are basically the ones who performed well in the last Jiannan Martial Arts Competition.

These people showed outstanding talent in martial arts when they were young, and they made their mark by participating in the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition. Therefore, it is normal and not surprising that they appear on those lists now. After all, these people have already made their mark.

It would be surprising if they didn’t appear on the list, and people would wonder if these people died along the way!

Of course, some unexpected situations cannot be ruled out!
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will pay attention to these people and keep an eye on their situations!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Danyang took the document brought by the eunuch and bowed in reply.

He and Sikong Haotian had been king and subject for many years, so he naturally knew each other's intentions.

It is necessary to pay attention to these people and observe them at the same time to see if they have any malice or hatred towards the royal family. If there is a problem, then find a way to get rid of these problematic people before the young geniuses fight.

Although this will cause dissatisfaction from the Purple Mansion Holy Land, as long as these people are not disciples of the Purple Mansion Holy Land and not many people die, the Purple Mansion Holy Land will just turn a blind eye. After all, some things are allowed within a certain range, as long as they are not too excessive.

Zhao Danyang left with the documents in his hand.

Because he still needs to investigate the specific circumstances of the people on the list and confirm their more detailed identity backgrounds, which requires the use of the power of the royal secret guards.

Although the information given now is detailed, it is not necessarily complete, and Zhao Danyang needs to deal with these things before the battle of young geniuses in the capital and confirm the final list.

"Another great battle between young geniuses. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Time flies!"

Sikong Haotian stood up, walked to the window, looked at the vast sky, and felt extremely emotional.

As a master in the realm of divine will, he has a long lifespan, but as he gets older, he also feels the traces of time left on him.

Things that I once didn't care about, now I am a little worried about them.

He wanted to take his martial arts skills to a higher level, but he discovered over the years that some bottlenecks were like shackles that were difficult to break.

He spent a lot of resources on cultivation, but in the end he couldn't even see the door, let alone break the door that shackled him and break through the existing realm.

If he could achieve a breakthrough in martial arts, his life span would greatly increase, and he would have more time to practice.

The longer people live, the less they want to die, and the more they fear the changes that the end of their life will bring.

"This time, the young genius is far superior to before. I hope that the Purple Mansion Holy Land can give me a precious medicine to help me break through. That way, I will have more time to serve the Holy Land!"

Sikong Haotian muttered to himself, but it seemed as if he did it on purpose.

Then he strode away.

After Sikong Haotian left, a black shadow appeared, glanced at Sikong Haotian's back, and then disappeared.

Tongyou City Arsenal.

The armory is where treasures are stored in each city, and this time in the armory of Tongyou City, in addition to the treasures it has itself, there are also treasures sent by the royal family and major sects. These are all placed in the armory of Tongyou City, and these are also prepared for the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition.

Some of them are treasures left over from the previous Jiannan Martial Arts Competition. These treasures will be sent to the city where the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition is held when the next Jiannan Martial Arts Competition begins.

As for Yang Xuan and others, they can exchange treasures in the armory.

Pills, mysterious weapons, spiritual materials, martial arts secret manuals and other resources are all publicly given as rewards after the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition. Before that, there were no physical objects, only vouchers for exchange.

At the armory, you can use these certificates to exchange for the training resources listed above.

Yang Xuan came early the next morning. After all, when exchanging treasures, it was first come first served. If there was a treasure that everyone wanted, it would be natural for them to get it first.

As for latecomers, if they don’t have an extra copy, they can only see the name of the treasure, and the thing itself will disappear.

Not only Yang Xuan, but others also came here early in the morning with similar goals.

This is also related to the fact that the armory was not opened after the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition ended yesterday, otherwise we would have gone to the armory to exchange treasures yesterday.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some people do not lack these and are not so anxious.

When Yang Xuan arrived at the armory, he saw more than ten people queuing up, waiting for the armory to open.

People like Xiao Jianyi from the Wusheng Sword Sect did not show up, and no one knew what was going on. Of course, this did not affect Yang Xuan's waiting in line to enter the armory.

There are many masters guarding the armory in Tongyou City, including masters in the Marrow Cleansing Realm. As for whether there are masters in the Divine Will Realm, Yang Xuan is not sure about this, because masters of this level restrain their aura and he cannot detect it.

The realm of divine will is a process of great transformation, and the strength will also be qualitatively improved. Naturally, there are all kinds of incredible means to hide the breath and not let Yang Xuan, a master of marrow washing, find it. In fact, it is nothing.

The number of Marrow Cleansing Elixirs is fixed and this cannot be changed. The selection of Xuanbing needs to be appropriate. Although the low-grade Xuanbing Zhanyi Sword that Cheng Hongyun gave him before is good, as his martial arts skills improve, it has gradually become unable to keep up.

Since his opponent's weapon is more powerful than his, he is naturally at a disadvantage. Therefore, Yang Xuan's goal is to choose a knife to replace the Zhan Yi Sword in his hand.

After the armory was opened, everyone entered it and headed towards their respective goals.

Yang Xuan’s goal was very clear, and he walked directly towards the direction of the weapon.

In the armory, there are various kinds of special weapons on display.

Among them, knives, swords, and spears are the main weapons, which are also the largest in number. In addition, there are various weapons such as halberds, axes, hatchets, hooks, etc.

Yang Xuan had a clear goal, and he went straight towards the direction where the big swords were placed. There were sharp swords, ring-handled swords, Miao swords, sabers, Pudao, Modao, etc. Yang Xuan had used Modao before, so the choice was relatively simple for him.

The sword techniques he is practicing now are all based on the Mo Dao. In the short term, he will only use the Mo Dao. After all, this is the only way to exert the strongest combat power. If he uses other swords, he still needs to learn and then coordinate with the various martial arts in his hands, which takes a lot of time. Although it will take some time to go to the capital to participate in the young genius battle, Yang Xuan does not plan to spend time on practicing new sword techniques for the time being.

When he becomes a disciple of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, he will have more time. By then, he will be able to practice not only swordsmanship, but also swordsmanship, spearmanship and other weapons.

The best thing at this time is naturally to increase his combat power as much as possible in a short period of time, so that he can perform better in the battle with the young geniuses in the capital.

Compared to the rewards at the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition, outstanding performance in the Battle of Young Prodigies in the capital of the Taiyuan Dynasty can earn you more cultivation resources, and even higher-level resources.

Some people, whose martial arts cultivation has not been able to break through to the realm of divine will, use these cultivation resources to break through directly to the realm of divine will, thereby meeting the standards for recruiting disciples in the holy land. After passing the assessment, they are directly promoted to disciples of the holy land.

Yang Xuan's eyes swept across the rows of Mo Dao. There were more weapons displayed here than he had expected.

There were the largest number of low-grade Xuan soldiers, so he basically just swept past them and went straight to the location of the high-grade Xuan soldiers.

Even though they are both Mo Dao, there are still some differences in the forging of Xuan Bing. Yang Xuan picked up a few high-quality Xuan Bing and tried them out.

The Mo Dao needs to be used in the right hand so that it can exert a stronger effect. Being able to hold the weapon in the right hand is one of the main reasons why Yang Xuan chose this weapon.

"This Shadow Moon Blade is more handy. Overall, it's of the highest quality!"

Yang Xuan tried all the high-quality Mo Dao in the arsenal, and then selected a Shadow Moon Sword, which was more suitable for him to use than the Zhan Yi Sword in his hand.

Before, he used the Zhan Yi Sword, because it was his only choice. But this time he chose to use the Ying Yue Sword, because it was the most suitable for him.

After having an idea, Yang Xuan did not hesitate. When he picked up a weapon, if he felt that it fit his hand best, then it was the most suitable weapon. When choosing a weapon, feeling is very important.

When there are no obvious defects, you can make a choice.

When Yang Xuan left the weapon area with the Shadow Moon Sword, someone else came to the Mo Dao area to choose a weapon.

Each weapon here is a single one, just like the Shadow Moon Blade on him, there was only one, and after he took the Shadow Moon Blade away, it was gone.

Top-grade Xuan weapons are not mass-produced weapons. Even if the same forging method is used, there will still be differences in the final weapons, because humans are not machines. Furthermore, there will be deviations in materials during forging. These subtle differences will ultimately lead to differences in each weapon.

This is true even if it is made by the same person.

Now that he had the weapon he wanted, he no longer cared about anyone else.

Go directly to the medicine area and take the Marrow Cleansing Pill. He can exchange seven pills, which are used to assist in the practice of the Marrow Cleansing realm. After he has mastered the practice of the Divine Crane Marrow Cleansing Sutra, he can take the Marrow Cleansing Pill to allow his body to absorb the medicinal power and assist him in making a breakthrough in his martial arts.

Even when breaking through the realm of divine will, it still has some effect.

Put away the elixir for future use.

He exchanged the spiritual herbs according to his previous habit, choosing large quantities of low-level spiritual herbs. After all, he only wanted the medicinal properties of these spiritual herbs, and he wanted to maximize them.

If a single spiritual medicine was not too conspicuous, he could choose the spiritual herbs with the largest quantity, or as before, choose the spiritual medicines according to the proportions of elixirs, so that others would think that he was collecting materials for elixirs.

As for how it will be used in the end, only he himself knows best.

"There are so many secret manuals!"

Yang Xuan stood at the place where the secret manuals of martial arts were placed. There were more of them than he had expected. The levels of the martial arts here were not low. They were basically the secret manuals of the inner cultivation and marrow cleansing realms.

As Yang Xuan got the third place in the Jiannan Martial Arts Competition, he can choose three skills as rewards for the competition.

The choice of martial arts was very simple for Yang Xuan: one martial arts method to improve martial arts aptitude, one sword method, and one light body method.

The difficulty of the swordsmanship is green level. Try to practice it before the battle between young geniuses begins. This is the best way to improve your combat power.

As the opponents encountered become stronger and stronger, the yellow-level swordsmanship Tiangong Nine-Layer Sword may not be able to keep up.

Just like Xiao Jianyi whom he met before, the sword technique he practiced was green level, which was extremely powerful. Even though he had not practiced it to perfection, the combat power he exerted was several points stronger than his perfect level of Tiangong Nine-Layer Sword.

The level of the martial arts is there. The greater the difficulty of practicing, the stronger the combat power that can be exerted after the practice is successful.

Previously, the methods of making the body light and improving martial arts aptitude were all based on yellow-level techniques, which used the effects of the human essence fruit to quickly get started in practice.

If he could learn to practice the techniques that could improve his martial arts aptitude, then his progress in practice might be further improved, and the effect would be even more obvious.

"Among these sword techniques, the Tianya Gushen Sword is the most interesting. It is a bit difficult to practice, but after mastering it, the combat power is improved the most!"

"A sword technique at the artistic conception level, with one strike of the sword, the loneliness is breathtaking!"

When it comes to choosing a sword technique, Yang Xuan chose a sword technique that focuses on cultivating artistic conception. In addition to the amazing power of this sword technique, the artistic conception is also helpful in cultivating the spiritual realm.

The realm of divine will is a spiritual transformation and a transformation of will, which will eventually transform the whole body, just like quantitative change leading to qualitative change.

Practicing the Tianya Gushen Dao should be effective, and it will be smoother when he breaks through the realm of divine will.

It's like laying a solid foundation before making a breakthrough, which will be smoother and less painful.

In fact, among these sword techniques, there are also those that focus on other aspects, some focus on killing, some focus on speed, some focus on overpowering others, etc. There are all kinds of sword techniques, and the emphasis of practice is different.

It cannot be said that any one martial art is bad, it’s just that Yang Xuan chose the sword technique that suits him best. After all, for him, the realm of divine will is not a problem, but it is also a problem that he will have to face in the near future.

By then, even if Tianya Gushen Dao has not yet started practicing, borrowing the cultivation level of the divine realm can speed up Tianya Gushen Dao's practice, and that will be the greatest boost to his combat power.

Yang Xuan chooses martial arts based on comprehensive considerations. Martial arts that are suitable for other people may not be suitable for him.

Holding the Tianya Gushen Sword, Yang Xuan left the sword technique area. There were many people in the martial arts area. It was obvious that these people wanted to improve as much as possible and increase their foundation before the battle with the young genius.

There are some techniques that you may have chosen but may not necessarily practice them. You can refer to them and make use of the characteristics of different techniques to gain insights into the techniques you practice and see if you can apply what you have learned to other techniques.

Like Yang Xuan, few people choose to practice new skills. After all, it takes a long time to master a skill from entry level to perfection.

Only when the skills are in harmony can the time required be reduced, but this time will not be too short. Moreover, for most people, it can be ignored!
