Chapter 32: The Great Killer

  Lu Yufeng was originally not very familiar with swords, and just as Lu Yufeng didn't know what to do, he suddenly saw a short sword lying quietly in a corner. Why is it called a short sword? Because this sword was not placed on the rack like other swords, but was casually discarded on the ground.

  Lü Yu Feng approached the sword and picked it up, the sword was already covered in dust.

  "Killer, great killer!" Lu Yufeng exclaimed, holding the sword in his hand. The entire sword was very short, only about half the size of a regular longsword, with a dark red color. Lu Yufeng was so amazed because on both sides of the sword's body, there were blood grooves. The only drawback was that the sword had no edge on either side, and there was no name engraved on it. This was simply a replica of the Trident Military Stabber, except for not being triangular in shape, everything else was almost identical.

  "If someone is stabbed with a sword, they will definitely be bled to death! I'm going to do it!" Lu Yufeng thought that in the future, if he were to engage in close combat with someone, giving them such a move would be very satisfying.

  "This powerful sword has been here for a long time, it's already dusty, how could nobody want it? It's known that those who like swords have all entered the top three sects of the Imperial Sword Gate. Those with slightly inferior talent, after entering other sects, have changed to using other weapons. After all, apart from the Imperial Sword Gate, no other sect has a top-level sword cultivation method. Moreover, this sword doesn't shine brightly like other treasured swords, nor does it have an intimidating sword aura. And its shape isn't very likable either, so this sword can only stay here and gather dust."

  Lu Yifeng took the sword and the knife he had just chosen, turned around and walked out of the room where the magical instruments were stored.

  "The young master has already chosen his weapon." Lu Yufeng said to the elder of the Treasure Pavilion.

  "Hmm, just two pieces, huh? You chose two weapons? Or is it one knife and one sword?" The elder was quite perplexed by Lu Yu Feng's selection.

  "Really, can it be?" Lu Yufeng was also puzzled, thinking that the Treasure Pavilion couldn't choose like this.

  "Of course you can, it's your own choice. Once you leave the treasure room, you won't be able to change again, think carefully?" The elder asked once more for confirmation.

  "No more." Lu Yefeng replied firmly.

  "Alright, you can go." The elder waved his hand at Lu Yu Feng.

  Lu Yu Feng turned around and left the Treasure Pavilion, planning to go back and comprehend the skills and combat techniques he had received today, of course, as well as his new weapon.

  Lu Yufeng didn't know it then, but this unassuming sword would change his life's trajectory.

  "Yunyang Hui Chen Jue" is the name of the technique obtained by Lu Yu Feng, and it is also the technique practiced by all members of the Yun Yang Sect. This time, Lu Yu Feng obtained the cultivation technique for the Huayuan Realm. When Lu Yu Feng started cultivating, everything seemed natural and effortless. During the Qi-absorbing stage, Lu Yu Feng was practicing the Qi-absorbing stage technique of "Yunyang Hui Chen Jue", so the two are from the same origin and don't seem to be a bother.

  After Lu Yu Feng ran the Gong Fa, he found that his Zhen Yuan had become much more condensed. Before Lu Yu Feng obtained the Gong Fa, the Zhen Yuan in his body was indeed abundant, but it seemed a bit restless and was always in a state of turmoil. Now, although Lu Yu Feng's overall strength had not improved, his control over his Zhen Yuan and its condensation had indeed made great progress.

  "Overbearing Blade Slash, this blade technique has a total of six styles, each one more ferocious than the last." Lu Yufeng entered the copied jade slip and an image was transmitted to him. The image was of a person standing in mid-air, holding a black long sword, wearing a set of dark clothes.

  The man in black continued to speak, saying: "The first move is called 'Force Splitting the Clear Sky'. This move guides the true yuan of the whole body into the knife, and with one split, it can cause the true yuan and the surrounding airflow to collide. If the cultivation is deep enough, it can be done in one move, splitting the clear sky." Next, the man in black made a split, and Mu Feng saw that along the edge of the man's long knife, the true yuan was rapidly shaking, and a true yuan phantom knife appeared, fiercely splitting out.

  "What a huge power!" Lu Yufeng had not yet recovered from the shock when he heard the voice of the man in black clothes.

  "The second move, called 'Flipping the River and Turning Over the Sea', emphasizes the continuous and unrelenting nature of the knife strikes, breaking through all defenses." As he finished speaking, another knife strike was made. This time, the black-robed man had changed to a different scene, standing on top of a large river. The black-robed man struck out with his knife, its blade entering the river and cutting it in half. Just as the water was about to close back up, the black-robed man struck again, splitting the water once more.

  "Overturning the Yangtze River is not just one knife, but with the momentum of overturning the Yangtze River, continuously chopping out many knives." Lu Yufeng saw that the entire river was split open by the black-robed man's knife after knife, and not a single crack had healed.

  The image of the person in black robes disappeared here, and by the time Lu Yufeng reacted, his consciousness had already exited the Jade Tablet.

  "It's too powerful, with just one move of the knife, it can split the sky and turn the seas upside down. It seems that my Cloud Sun Sect was also a powerful sect in the past. However, in the second floor's Scripture Pavilion, there are only the first two moves of the knife technique, the remaining moves can only be found on the upper floors." This is also a measure taken by the sect to prevent someone from using techniques beyond their own power, so as not to damage their cultivation.

  When Lu Yu Feng fully woke up, the sky had already turned a pale white. He stood up and walked towards the Wind Cloud Cliff. As long as he was in the sect, every morning he would go to the cliff to meditate, this was a habit that Lu Yu Feng had kept since he started cultivating. On the cliff, Lu Yu Feng could feel a familiar aura.

  The sun had slowly risen from the east, and Lu Yu Feng sat cross-legged at the top of the Wind Cloud Cliff, with a long knife inserted into the ground beside him. Looking at this newly risen sun, he felt a thousand emotions, but didn't know where these emotions came from. This feeling wasn't the first time for Lu Yu Feng; every time he saw the sunrise, he would feel this way.

  Suddenly, Lu Yufeng sprang up with a "whoosh", grabbed the long knife beside him, and his true yuan surged.

  Lu Yu Feng jumped up, shouting "Force Split the Clear Sky!" Lu Yu Feng slashed out with his knife, and the true yuan infused in the long knife activated it, emitting a piercing wind sound. Then, Lu Yu Feng's long knife emitted a blade aura that struck towards the cliff in front of him. However, compared to the mysterious man in black clothes' knife, Lu Yu Feng's was far inferior. The blade aura he slashed out slowly dissipated not far from him.

  But before Lu Yu Feng could even see the blade he had just swung out, he fell straight down from mid-air and lay on the ground.

  "This sword technique is really too violent!" Lu Yufeng felt the condition of his body, revealing a wry smile. Indeed, as that mysterious man had said, this sword technique was too violent. Just now, he had only suddenly realized something, drawn his sword and struck out in a flurry, not expecting that nearly all the meridians in his body would rupture, and his flesh would be shattered by the surging True Qi, oozing out threads of fresh blood.

  "It seems that I still need to temper my body as soon as possible! Otherwise, even if I understand the Overlord Slash, I won't be able to use it! If during a big battle with the enemy, this knife is too slow, I'll become a lamb to be slaughtered." Lu Yu Feng made up his mind, starting from tomorrow, he would refine his physical body.

  Lu Yu Feng slowly got up from the ground, sat cross-legged and controlled the green spiritual energy inside his body. He slowly repaired the injuries to his internal organs and flesh, which surprised Lu Yu Feng as the green spiritual energy's effect on repairing his physical body was much better than its effect on repairing his meridians. This undoubtedly made Lu Yu Feng even more confident in tempering his physical body.

  After his injuries had almost healed, Lu Yufeng slowly got up and walked towards the foot of Fengyun Cliff. He had already thought it through: in front of Fengyun Cliff was a vast river, to the left was a waterfall, and next to the waterfall he would build a small hut, where he would carry out his grand plan to temper his body on Fengyun Cliff.
