What originally occupied Ye Guchen's Dantian was an innate sword fetus contained within his body.
It was also with this innate sword fetus that Ye Guchen was able to become a seventh-grade genius.
There are nine levels of genius.
The first to third grades are those with outstanding talents and transcendence from ordinary people.
Rank 3 to 6 are among the best among people, with outstanding talents, their cultivation speed, understanding, and basic skills are all far superior to ordinary geniuses.
The seventh to ninth grades are the unparalleled geniuses. Not only do they have perfect qualifications in all aspects, but they also possess innate magical powers, which are abilities given by God.
It is rumored that there are even tenth-grade geniuses and supreme beings above the ninth grade. However, those kinds of geniuses are hard to find in the entire Southern Sky Territory and even in the nine regions, let alone the Shengyuan Dynasty.
The main reason why Ye Guchen became the first of the Seven Prodigies of Tianhe Mansion was that the innate sword embryo in his body was an innate magical power that could destroy all laws and be invincible.
But unfortunately, his sword fetus was taken away by Gu Shaoyang using secret techniques.
This move not only caused Ye Guchen to lose the innate sword fetus, and his essence was greatly reduced, but his cultivation level also dropped from the peak of the essence realm to the body forging realm.
Ye Guchen was seventeen years old, and his cultivation potential was originally terrifying. However, after this, his cultivation declined greatly, his body was exhausted, and his potential was lost.
The source of everything comes from Gu Shaoyang and Xia Yubing!
In Ye Guchen's heart, these two people are enemies that must be eliminated.
Slowly suppressing the cold feeling in his heart, Ye Guchen began to observe the thunder calamity sword in his dantian.
The blade of the sword is jet black, and you can't tell what material it is made of.
A trace of lightning wrapped around the sword.
Ye Guchen was very interested and slowly probed away with his spiritual consciousness.
Just under this touch, the sword of thunder suddenly buzzed and trembled, and silver electric rays, like thunder snakes, spread along Ye Guchen's consciousness to the consciousness in his mind that had not yet been developed.
ocean.
"snort……"
Intense pain, the brain is like an axe, a machete, and even a sword demon who has gone through thousands of hardships and practices, feels like his brain is about to burst at this moment.
Ye Guchen sat cross-legged on the bed, suddenly made a seal with one hand, and silently recited the Heart Condensation Mantra.
The Heart-Condensing Curse is not a martial art from the Sword Demon's previous life, but a secret technique of peace of mind that Ye Guchen has mastered in this world.
Different from martial arts and martial arts, secret arts are mostly auxiliary techniques. Although they are not as good as the foundation of martial arts and not as good as martial arts for actual killing, they are indispensable.
The Sword Demon merged with Ye Guchen's memory, and this secret technique was naturally included in it.
Although the Heart Condensation Curse is not a high-level secret technique, it still has some effect.
The sea of chaotic consciousness that Ye Guchen had not yet opened up gradually calmed down.
Then, those wisps of thunder unexpectedly turned into ancient characters the size of ants, blooming with light inexplicably.
"It's actually a scripture." Ye Guchen was surprised.
The sword of thunder and calamity that carries the soul of the sword demon from time to time actually contains a mysterious ancient scripture hidden in it!
"The way of heaven is unkind, all things are invisible, the ancient times were chaotic, and the human body is so difficult..."
"If you want to know the path to immortality, bathe in the nine calamities, climb the nine-nine heavenly steps, and achieve eternal good fortune..."
After some reflection, Ye Guchen finally sorted it out.
The scripture engraved in this mysterious thunder sword is called the "Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra".
Ye Guchen knew that the levels of martial arts and martial arts in this world, from low to high, were divided into acquired, innate, spiritual, king, emperor, and saint levels.
For example, Xia Yubing, who was once on par with him, the technique she practiced was the innate top-grade technique passed down from the Xia family's ancestors, the "Xuanpo Taiyin Secret Code".
Xia Yubing, who has practiced the Xuanpo Taiyin Secret Code, has the essence of coldness in his body. When combined with the Xia family's unique innate swordsmanship, the Flowing Frost Sword Technique, it is even more powerful.
This shows the importance of exercises to a practitioner.
A good exercise not only lays a foundation, but also can bring various abilities to the practitioner.
Regarding the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra, Ye Guchen did not know its level, but just from the mysterious thunder sword, it could be seen that the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra was definitely not an ordinary technique.
The original technique that Ye Guchen practiced was the "Wandao Sword Code" passed down to him by his father when he was a child. This is a technique that is closely related to swordsmanship.
It was precisely by relying on this technique that Ye Guchen cultivated one hundred and eight sword veins.
Sword veins have a great amplifying effect on sword energy, which can double the power of swordsmanship.
"The Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra must be practiced, but the sword veins cultivated in the Ten Thousand Dao Sword Manual are also very important to me." Ye Guchen pondered, thinking.
The Ten Thousand Dao Sword Code, as mentioned by Gu's father when he was young, is a rare spiritual level skill. It can be said that it is a skill that any sword cultivator dreams of. Ye Guchen is obsessed with swords and cannot give up practicing.
Ye Guchen suddenly remembered that Xia Yubing seemed to have asked him tactfully if he could teach her the Ten Thousand Dao Sword Code.
But the Wandao Sword Code is a secret that is not passed down, and his father once strictly warned Ye Guchen.
Perhaps this incident was one of the reasons why Xia Yubing attacked him in the Sword King's Secret Realm.
After understanding the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra, Ye Guchen realized that the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra is about surviving nine tribulations and becoming an immortal. Each tribulation is dangerous, and the later tribulations are, the more difficult it is to survive.
At the moment, Ye Guchen can only temporarily understand the first catastrophe of the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra.
Physical blood disaster!
It is recorded in the Heart Sutra of Nine Kalpas that if you successfully overcome the blood tribulation of the physical body, you will create a perfect physical body with the power of a dragon and an elephant, and blood and energy like a rainbow, laying a perfect foundation.
If it fails, the flesh and blood will be burned and dried up, the bones will be broken and the tendons will be broken, turning into ashes.
"In terms of dangers, the Nine Tribulations Heart Sutra ranks first, but the results obtained are far from comparable to ordinary techniques." Ye Guchen's eyes lit up.
The Mysterious Taiyin Secret Code practiced by Xia Yubing, in addition to giving Xia Yubing the power of yin-cold attributes, only increased the essence of his body by three levels and had no body tempering effect.
However, the Nine Calamities Heart Sutra can give Ye Guchen an increase in various abilities every time he survives one calamity. The ability to perfect the physical body alone cannot be achieved by ordinary exercises.
The blood tribulation of the physical body is divided into three minor tribulations.
After surviving the first small tribulation, the energy and blood can be set on fire, bursting with great power. At the same time, the body's physical condition is greatly strengthened, and it has terrifying recovery capabilities. Although it is impossible to regenerate a broken limb, it is already amazing.
After surviving the second minor tribulation, you will have the power of a dragon-elephant, and your strength and speed will all increase.
After passing through the third minor kalpa, a perfect physical body will be created, a solid foundation will be laid, and a perfect cornerstone will be laid for the subsequent path of spiritual practice.
"With my current strength, I am far from being able to survive the physical blood tribulation. I can't even survive the first small tribulation. If I force myself to survive the tribulation, my body will only collapse. What I need to do now is to prevent my body from weakening."
Ye Guchen thought.
The condition of his body was very bad, even the life-sustaining Qi and blood were nearly exhausted.
Right now, the important thing is not to practice, but to save one's life.
"If you want to restore Qi and blood, ordinary herbs are useless, only elixirs are available, and elixirs must be collected from the Xia Family Medicine Hall." After thinking about it, Ye Guchen stood up and picked up the jade plaque that represented the identity of the core disciple of the Xia Family.
