Qin Sang flipped through the genealogy to the end, but could not find a single monk in the foundation-building stage. The one with the highest level was Song Hua's grandfather, Song Yi, who had only cultivated to the seventh level of the Qi-refining stage. He disappeared after an outing and had no news at all.
.
The sword intention and decree of Shaohua Mountain are probably still lying in the tomb of the ancestor of the Song family!
Qin Sang held the Song family tree with his fingers, his eyes changing. Although he didn't know enough about the world of cultivation, the benefits of joining the sect were obvious.
Just like the shopkeeper next to the Artifact Pavilion, the envy of the casual cultivators towards the disciples of the sect can be heard from just a few words.
But after all, Song Hua saved his life, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Sang must appreciate it. He never flaunted himself as a good person, nor would he take the initiative to murder his savior.
What's more, Shaohua Mountain is a major sect of the righteous way. If you really don't have spiritual roots, it will be useless even if you get the sword intention decree.
Qin Sang sighed softly, put down the Song family genealogy, took another unnamed book, and at the same time took out the ebony sword hidden in his chest.
The unnamed book is actually the "Song Family Sword Art", which is also the sword art that activates the ebony sword!
The so-called "Sword Art of the Song Family" was actually modified by the ancestor of the Song Family based on the sword-controlling skills of Shaohua Mountain.
After practicing the sword art, you can use your spiritual consciousness to control the sword, go in and out of Qingming, and with a thought, the sword will shine across the sky, as graceful as a startling giant, as powerful as a swimming dragon, and it will go away and come back suddenly, killing the enemy thousands of miles away.
After cultivating the art of sword control to a certain level, one can turn the sword energy into a rainbow and control the sword to fly, which is so powerful that it makes people fascinated.
Qin Sang has coveted flying with a sword for a long time. Among the basic spells in the Netherworld Sutra, the Wind Movement Technique only increases the speed of movement. The Air Control Technique can only stand in the air for a period of time and cannot fly at will.
The reason why Qin Sang was unable to activate the ebony sword was because he lacked this sword technique.
It is recorded in the Song family genealogy that the fourth generation ancestor of the Song family once obtained a fragment of a flying sword magic weapon while exploring a cave left by an ancient cultivator.
Although it is a fragment, it still has the texture of a magic weapon.
Only monks at the pill-forming stage and above can refine magic weapons. Each magic weapon is made of extremely precious spiritual materials. After being tempered day and night by monks at the pill-forming stage, its power is so terrifying that even the best magic weapons cannot match it.
The ancestor of the Song family was so happy after receiving the fragment of the flying sword that he spent all his family property to ask a famous weapon-refining master in Fang City to refine the fragment of the flying sword into this ebony sword.
Because of this, the ebony sword is like a magic weapon and an illegal weapon, but it is also very different from a magic weapon. Since it is essentially a fragment of a magic weapon, it is much harder and sharper than an ordinary spiritual sword magic weapon, and it must be activated with sword techniques.
But the shortcomings are also very obvious. The consumption of the ebony sword is too high. Only monks in the foundation building stage can sustain the consumption. Monks at the tenth level and above in the Qi refining stage can barely activate the ebony sword.
The spiritual power of cultivators below the tenth level is too low. They must hold spiritual stones and accumulate enough spiritual power before they can release a sword.
With Qin Sang's current wealth, he can hold up to eight swords.
Of course, the power of the ebony sword is quite extraordinary, and it is difficult for opponents of the same level to resist it.
Qin Sang held the "Netherworld Sutra" in one hand and the "Song Family Sword Art" in the other hand, and fell into deep thought.
Regardless of whether you practice sword techniques or spells, it cannot be achieved overnight. It takes a long time and is a grinding effort.
If your cultivation is affected by practicing mantras, the gains outweigh the losses.
How to choose or not can only be measured by yourself.
Qin Sang has never fought against an immortal cultivator, so he doesn't know which of the five spells to choose, but it is undoubtedly not advisable to focus all his energy on the "Song Family Sword Art".
Even if you find the Yin evil spirit and keep the soul pills, as your level increases, your cultivation speed will become slower and slower. Coupled with the bottlenecks that come and go, you will not be able to break through the tenth level of the Qi refining stage in a few years.
Before reaching the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, every time before using the Ebony Sword, he must absorb spiritual stones and prepare in advance. In critical moments, the opponent cannot give him time to prepare.
You still have to rely on magical weapons such as magic spells and purple soul lings to fight against the enemy. The ebony sword can be used as a trump card at most.
Of course, "Song Family Sword Art" still needs to be practiced.
After throwing away Song Hua's sundries and loading his own things, Qin Sang felt relaxed. After all, it was tiring to carry all the gold and silver on his back.
Zi Hun Ling and Tian Can Bao Jia still stayed outside, ready to respond to crises at any time. Then Qin Sang didn't even think about practicing the "Netherworld Sutra" and plunged into the "Song Family Sword Art".
For a whole day, Qin Sang did not take a step out of the small courtyard. He was immersed in "Song Family Sword Art" and couldn't extricate himself.
The most important thing in sword-wielding is to cultivate the sword. Only by fully understanding the characteristics of one's own spiritual sword and integrating the mind and spirit sword can one be able to wield the sword as he pleases and unleash the true power of the sword technique.
Qin Sang used his mind to communicate with the ebony sword. According to the instructions of the sword art, he first tempered it with essence and blood to gain the approval of the ebony sword. It took him a whole day to finally put the ebony sword into his Dantian and keep it warm at all times.
This method of warming up the spiritual sword is the most basic sword-raising technique in Shaohua Mountain.
"The Sword Art of the Song Family" says that only when you have mastered sword training and reached the state where man and sword become one can you be considered an introduction to the art of swordsmanship. This was too far away for Qin Sang.
Even after leaving the cultivation state, Qin Sang can still feel the ebony sword in his Dantian.
Qin Sang opened his palms, and with a movement in his heart, a black light appeared out of thin air in his palms. A small ebony sword floated above Qin Sang's palms. The originally inconspicuous wooden sword shone with a faint light, making it look extraordinary.
Qin Sang's face was a little pale, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes. He couldn't help but pointed forward and said softly: "Go!"
The ebony sword trembled, and then flew forward tremblingly. The speed was very slow and it could not fly out more than ten feet. Qin Sang suddenly turned pale and hurriedly put the ebony sword back into his body. Then he breathed a long sigh of relief, with lingering fear remaining on his face.
color.
In his excitement, he forgot that he spent a lot of spiritual energy on raising the sword.
Moreover, the ebony sword's consumption of spiritual energy was so shocking that after only flying such a short distance, the spiritual energy in his body was almost exhausted.
After meditating and adjusting his breath for a while, Qin Sang recovered as before. He knew that he should not be hasty in raising his sword, so he took out the "Netherworld Sutra" and practiced the spells first.
These basic auxiliary spells are very simple. Qin Sang learned them all in just a few hours, given his experience in the art of expelling objects.
Of course, if you want to be proficient in application, you need to practice frequently.
Qin Sang tried these spells on the sheepskin one by one, and the results were disappointing.
In the end, Qin Sang chose the method of Cloud Escape and Wanli Frozen. He needed one to escape and the other to fight the enemy.
He has Purple Soul Ling and Ice Silkworm Armor on him, which have similar effects to Fog Lock Hengjiang and Water Condensation Barrier. There is no need to practice these two first.
As for the transformation, Qin Sang felt that even if he released an illusory clone to confuse the enemy, once the enemy saw through it, he would still be unable to escape.
