Chapter 349: Sword Guiding Art

The people who went up the mountain were divided into two teams. The team was young and had yet to practice cultivation. For example, Chen Fei, who was older and had cultivation skills, was placed in another line.

State your name, hometown, age, and cultivation? The Sword Return Towers managing disciple raised his head and glanced at Chen Fei.

Zhao Tie, Ge Lin County, 19, Bone Tempering realm. Chen Fei had a smile on his face.

This ident.i.ty did indeed exist, and Chen Fei had acquired it at a small cost from a middleman. People have their own paths, and theres always a way to get what you need if theres demand.

However, this purchased ident.i.ty was inherently unstable and could easily lead to future complications. But Chen Fei never intended to stay at Sword Return Tower for long. As soon as he found the cultivation techniques he sought, he planned to leave.

Moreover, most sects did not scrutinize the information of their outer disciples too rigorously, given that in this era, the exchange of information was already quite challenging.

Even the inner sect disciples were only slightly stricter in terms of ident.i.ty verification.

Only when it came to true disciples, when it involved the core inheritance of the sect, would many sects really go underground to check your ident.i.ty.

A moment later, Chen Fei successfully pa.s.sed the test and became one of the outer sect disciples of Sword Return Tower.

Chen Fei stood in the crowd and looked around. Just like the other disciples who had also pa.s.sed the test, his expression was a little excited.

Only excitement was the normal expression of the people around them. If his face was cold, then there was a real problem.

Two hours later, the entrance test was over. Of the three hundred people, less than a hundred remained on the mountain, and that was only for Outer Sect disciples.

Most of the sects outer sect disciples usually had to do a lot of ch.o.r.es other than cultivating.

If one did not have enough talent, resources, and time was delayed by ch.o.r.es, it would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to advance from an outer sect disciple to an inner sect.

In the future, youll live here. Starting tomorrow, there will be senior disciples teaching you cultivation techniques.

A group of people was led by the attending disciples to a hilltop where many houses had been built, with three people sharing one. In terms of living conditions, it could only be considered average, but no one in the group minded that.

They were more focused on looking forward to learning the cultivation techniques tomorrow and their future promotion to inner disciples.

Chen Fei casually chose a room to enter, and after a while, two more people walked in. Upon seeing Chen Fei, they both nodded in acknowledgment.

On the first day of entering, everyone was harmonious. Even if there were any troublemakers or those with bad temperaments, they wouldnt reveal it on the first day because that would attract too much attention and risk getting expelled from Sword Return Tower.

Chen Fei sat cross-legged on the bed, and the other two disciples, seeing that

Chen Fei wasnt talkative, gradually stopped talking as well. One of them imitated Chen Feis posture and sat cross-legged, while the other one went out.

Outside the house, there was a lot of noise as everyone introduced themselves and revealed some information about themselves. The formation of alliances and factions was already beginning to take shape.

In the room, Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes. The aura of the Aperture Tempering realm had been focused on the mountain. It seemed that there were no anomalies at the moment, and the aura had withdrawn.

Chen Fei glanced at the disciple in the same room. He was in the Body Tempering realm, but he wasnt very old. His appearance was simple, and in terms of innate talent, it couldnt be considered outstanding, but it was better than most people.

In the future, if he cultivated diligently and had good luck, he should have a chance to cultivate to the Visceral Tempering Realm.

This should be considered a very good result, as in many cities, the Visceral Tempering realm was already the highest cultivation level. The Aperture Tempering realm, on the other hand, belonged to the rarest of the rare, and without exceptional talent and a bit of luck, it was almost impossible to achieve.

Chen Fei closed his eyes again and entered a state of sleep. The entire house seemed extremely quiet.

As the sun set and the moon rose, several hours pa.s.sed by in an instant. All three people in the room had already laid down to sleep. Tomorrow would be the time to learn cultivation techniques, and only by mastering the introductory techniques could they hope to become inner disciples.

So the other two people in the room attached great importance to this and went to sleep early to ensure they would be well-rested for the next day.

Moonlight shone into the room through the window, and a shadow gradually rose from one of the beds, then silently landed on the floor.

In the moonlight, the shadow gradually solidified and became indistinguishable from an ordinary person. The only difference was that this figure had no aura whatsoever, appearing eerie and mysterious.

Chen Feis shadow clone glanced around, lightly tapped its right foot backward, and silently floated out of the room.

Investigating this kind of matter was naturally best suited for a shadow clone. Even if something unexpected happened, at most, it would result in the loss of a shadow clone, with no impact on the original body.

Of course, there were rumors of a mind technique that could directly target the original body through a shadow clone. Such mind techniques were extremely terrifying, as they made even having a shadow clone unsafe.

However, not even the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect possessed such a mind technique, and the likelihood of Sword Return Tower having one was extremely low. Moreover, with the protection of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant and the Thousand Threads Technique, Chen Feis mind was immune to attacks from other aperture tempering realm cultivators.

Chen Feis shadow clone moved with the wind, seemingly weightless, and floated toward other mountain peaks along the mountaintop. When he was a distance away from the main peak, Chen Fei suddenly stopped and concealed himself in the shadows.

After a moment, a figure rushed past Chen Fei from a few dozen meters away and disappeared into the mountain path, undoubtedly one of Sword Return Towers aperture tempering realm experts.

Chen Fei emerged from the shadows and continued to make his way towards the main peak of Sword Return Tower. After a while, he stopped halfway up the mountain.

At this point, Chen Fei could clearly sense the several aperture tempering realm auras converging on the main peak, two of which were soaring with sword intent, making their oppressive aura palpable even without seeing the individuals.

Sword Return Towers two aperture tempering realm late-stage experts were both currently on the main peak.

To progress from the mid-stage of the aperture tempering realm to the late-stage within five years was not solely due to the cultivation technique; there must be other reasons behind it. However, Chen Fei couldnt determine the exact cause at the moment.

His first task here was to find the damaged cultivation techniques of the Primordial Sword Sect. As for the rest, he could investigate them if the opportunity arose.

If there was no opportunity, Chen Fei wouldnt force it.

Chen Fei floated to a protruding rocky outcrop on the cliff without detecting anything unusual. He quickly formed seals with his hands, causing the stored elemental and mental energy within his shadow clone to oscillate at a specific frequency.

Almost imperceptible ripples spread out like concentric circles. Chen Fei sensed the waves, and after a moment, he opened his eyes, glanced at the mountain peak, and thought for a moment before continuing upward.

The Sword Guiding Art, he had just used was a special technique left behind by the founder of the Primordial Sword Sect.

It didnt have any ability to increase ones battle prowess, nor could it increase ones cultivation speed. This was a technique that purely resonated with the techniques of the Primordial Sword Sect. When he suspected that there was a cultivation method inheritance of the Primordial Sword Sect nearby, he could use the Sword Guiding Art to determine the location.

Yes, this was a special technique created by the founder of the Primordial Sword Sect. When the sects cultivation technique was incomplete one day, it would be used to retrieve the inheritance.

However, it was a pity that there was a condition to use this sword guiding technique, and that was to learn the Primordial Sword Scripture. Before Long Rainbow Sect was destroyed, the Primordial Sword Scripture was missing.

The Primordial Sword Sects cultivation method in the Sword Return Tower might have been left behind by a branch of the Primordial Sword Sect that had left. Those branches did not know the Sword Guiding Art as it was held exclusively by the main sect.

After Chen Fei pa.s.sed the first two levels of the Primordial Sword Scripture to Qu Qingsheng, Qu Qingsheng pa.s.sed this sword guiding art to Chen Fei. In his heart, Qu Qingsheng was probably looking forward to Chen Fei finding the other cultivation techniques as well.

It was purely an expectation. Anyway, the symbolic meaning of this sword guiding art was greater than its actual meaning.

It was just that Qu Qingsheng probably didnt expect that Chen Fei would actually use this Sword Guiding Art to search for traces of other Primordial Cultivation Techniques.

And just now on the cliff, the Sword Guiding Art did not give any response.

Either the Sword Return Tower didnt have the cultivation technique of the Primordial Sword Sect, or the inheritance of the cultivation technique was blocked by the formation, making it difficult for the Sword Guiding Art to sense it.

When he was less than a hundred meters away from the peak, Chen Fei found another place to stop. At this point, the aura of the aperture tempering realm on the peak was clearly visible.

At this distance, even if there were aperture Tempering realm experts who were good at breath control, it would be difficult for them to escape the senses of the two late-stage aperture tempering realm experts on the peak. It was only because Chen Feis aura was completely gone and he had the wind gathering technique to conceal the sound of the wind that he could hide his tracks.

Chen Fei carefully performed the special technique. Traces of ripples spread out from Chen Feis palm. The ripples were barely noticeable, but Chen Fei still tried his best to suppress this special fluctuation.

Chen Fei spent a quarter of an hour to activate the special technique that could be casually executed in order to conceal that ripple.

Not here either!

Sensing the feedback from the Sword Guiding Art, Chen Fei stopped the seal. At this distance, even if there was the obstruction of the formation, if there really was the inheritance tablet of the Primordial Sword Technique, Chen Fei would definitely be able to capture it.

The information that Chou Yuanceng had given was fake?

A thought flashed through Chen Feis mind. He could no longer go up the main peak. Otherwise, the possibility of being discovered was too high. If the cultivation method was not hidden in the main peak, then it might be hidden in a place like the Hall of True Transmission similar to the Primordial Sword Sect or the Long Rainbow Sect.

Chen Feis figure fluttered with the wind and jumped down from the cliff of the main peak.

Like a fallen leaf, it gently landed at the foot of the mountain. The most dangerous place had already been gone. Chen Fei no longer needed to be as apprehensive as before in other places.

The Sword Guiding Art rippled in Chen Feis hands. Other than those at the late-stage Aperture Tempering realm who had stronger mental strength than Chen Fei, no one below the late-stage Aperture Tempering realm could sense it.

Chen Fei began to wander around the Sword Return Tower without any restraint. Other than those positions where there were obvious formations, Chen Fei would avoid them slightly. Chen Fei swept across the other positions directly.

Two hours later, Chen Feis footsteps could not help but stop.. There was a reaction from the Sword Guiding Art!
