My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

As soon as the white-browed old man said this, the Boundless Hall fell silent.

Neither Yue Lianfeng, nor the sect leader, nor the other innate martial artists had any objections.

Given the terrifying talent Gu Qing had displayed, they felt they couldn't teach him anything.

With such talent, only Uncle Feng in the entire Xiyue Sword Sect is qualified. Uncle Feng is a Grandmaster Sword Saint.

"Disciple Gu Qing greets Master."

Gu Qing immediately bowed to the white-browed old man.

"Okay, okay!!"

Upon hearing this, the white-browed old man said "good" three times, showing that he was in a very good mood.

of course.

Gu Qing was also very happy.

Having become a disciple of the White-Browed Elder, Gu Qing is theoretically now of the same generation as Yue Lianfeng, the Sect Master, and others.

With this identity, Gu Qing can be saved a lot of trouble.

According to the rules of the Xiyue Sword Sect, even formal disciples need to go through three years of basic training, three years of Sword Hall training, and three years of Sword Trial Peak training before they can be taught the sect's unique sword techniques.

If Gu Qing cannot demonstrate his talent and ability, even if he manages to make it to the top, it will take him nine years.

This trial mission will last for a total of 10 years.

Therefore, being accepted as a disciple by the white-browed elder, bypassing the normal disciple assessment mechanism of the West Mountain Sword Sect, was undoubtedly a shortcut to success.

With the incredible effects of the equipment slots, Gu Qing will be able to transform the entire foundation of the Western Mountain Sword Sect into his own strength in a very short time.

……

Three months later.

Gu Qing and the white-browed old man sat down and discussed swordsmanship.

"Gu Qing!!"

"From now on, you will move to Jian Ge to cultivate!"

The white-browed old man's voice trembled slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

When he first became Gu Qing's apprentice, he was able to give her guidance.

Two months ago.

After he gave Gu Qing his own Ziwei sword, Gu Qing's swordsmanship talent was once again stimulated, and the situation became out of control.

In just two months, Gu Qing's swordsmanship skills increased at an extremely terrifying speed.

No matter what he taught, Gu Qing could learn it in no time.

They can even apply what they've learned to other situations.

His understanding of swordsmanship is no less than that of the white-browed old man.

What shocked the white-browed elder even more was that Gu Qing not only had a thorough understanding of swordsmanship, but his cultivation of true qi had also improved significantly.

Faced with Gu Qing's abnormal talent and comprehension, even a master-level sword saint like the White-Browed Elder was somewhat at a loss.

It feels like my stomach's reserves were emptied out in just three months.

There was nothing more that could be taught Gu Qing.

"Jiange!!"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Gu Qing's eyes.

Inside the Sword Pavilion are the handwritten notes left by the strongest members of the Western Mountain Sword Sect throughout history, as well as the sect's 72 unique sword techniques.

In addition, various sword manuals collected by the disciples of the Western Mountain Sword Sect from the martial arts world.

It is the important place for the inheritance of the entire Xiyue Sword Sect.

Not only that.

Judging from the information revealed in the conversations of the white-browed old man over the past three months, even the martial arts insights of the founding patriarch are in the Sword Pavilion.

The "Reflecting Heaven Sword Manual," created by the founder of the school, is a profound martial art that surpasses all other martial arts.

Gu Qing had previously wanted to go to Jian Ge to do some research.

Unfortunately, the white-browed old man never agreed.

He said that if one's foundation is not solid, studying advanced martial arts techniques will be detrimental to one's mental state.

"The Sword Pavilion contains a wide variety of martial arts, including those written by the masters of the Western Mountain Sword Sect throughout the ages, as well as other martial arts."

"You can learn so much more in Jiange!!"

Go!

The white-browed old man sighed, saying helplessly.

Having such a gifted and exceptionally talented disciple is both a blessing and a curse.

Unable to continue guiding Gu Qing's cultivation, the white-browed elder could only have the sect's past grandmasters communicate with Gu Qing across time and space through the handed-down notes.

Let all the masters in the sect teach this freakish disciple together.

After Gu Qing left.

The white-browed old man also announced his seclusion... no, he went into seclusion.

……

On the other hand, Gu Qing's arrival at Sword Pavilion was like a dragon entering the sea.

Sword Pavilion contains countless martial arts, the most famous of which are the 72 unique sword techniques of the Sword Sect. In addition, there are various unique techniques created by past masters, as well as other martial arts from the martial arts world.

"The Purple Aura of Rising Sun Technique?"

On the third floor of Jian Ge, Gu Qing picked up a notebook.

The Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique is a special martial art.

This realm lacks spiritual energy, but the Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique can gather purple energy and refine it into power, thereby breaking through the shackles of the Innate Realm.

The so-called "rising sun purple aura" is a special energy created at the moment when the sun rises and interacts with all things in heaven and earth, at the moment of yin and yang alternation. Purple aura has vigorous vitality and drives the evolution of all living things.

"To practice this skill, one must first master the Heaven-Reflecting Sword Manual, using sword intent to sense the fluctuations of heaven and earth, thereby absorbing the purple energy of the rising sun."

"So that's how it is!!"

Gu Qing picked up the Morning Sun Purple Qi Manual and studied it carefully. This martial art was written by the founder of the Western Mountain Sword Sect.

"Others need to cultivate the Heaven-Reflecting Sword Manual first, but I'm different..."

Without any hesitation, Gu Qing took the Ziwei Sword, a gift from his master, from his equipment inventory and immediately equipped it with the "Chaoyang Ziqi Technique".

[Equipped Item: Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique]

[Rank: A profound technique that gathers the purple energy of the heavens]

Completeness: 100%

[Equipment Effect: Gain insights into cultivation techniques and the ability to perceive purple aura.]

[Note: If the item is equipped for more than three days, all its effects will be permanently granted.]

……

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Gu Qing sat by the window on the third floor of the Sword Pavilion, where he could gaze at the endless sea of ​​clouds in the distance of Mount Hua.

As the sun rises in the east, Gu Qing's heart is like a mirror-like lake, keenly sensing the subtle resonance between all things in the world and the sun.

Wisps and strands of purple aura appeared between heaven and earth.

Most of them converged into a touch of purple in the world.

Gu Qing was surrounded by purple light as he fully activated the Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique. The purple qi transformed into two streams of air that entered Gu Qing's body through his nostrils.

After a while.

Gu Qing suddenly opened her eyes, her pupils tinged with a faint purple.

"Not bad!!"

Gu Qing smiled slightly.

According to the records of the Western Mountain Sword Sect, to break through to the Grandmaster realm, one must either cultivate sword techniques, condense the ultimate sword intent, and break through the shackles of cultivation, or absorb the strange power of heaven and earth to break through the shackles of cultivation.

"Now that I have mastered the 'Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique' ahead of schedule, entering the Grandmaster realm will not only be a natural progression, but will also be much earlier."

Gu Qing took out the Ancestral Master's Manual from his equipment inventory, feeling quite satisfied.

but……

Relying solely on the "Rising Sun Purple Qi Technique" to break through realms is far from enough.

To compete for the title of the best in the world, it is not enough to only have strong internal energy cultivation; one must also make up for the shortcomings in techniques and moves.

Fortunately, the countless martial arts techniques treasured by the Sword Pavilion were Gu Qing's best source of supplies.

However, once one reaches a certain level of mastery, it's only a matter of time before one begins to cultivate sword techniques.

For Gu Qing, who has an equipment slot, this process will only be faster.

He had made up his mind.

Gu Qing began to cultivate in seclusion at the Sword Pavilion, studying countless secret manuals.

The sun rises and the moon sets.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
