Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

The world was silent, the wilderness empty.

Wang Chen landed steadily in a dense forest blanketed with pristine snow.

He held a sword in hand, looking around.

This place was about fifty li from White Tiger City, surrounded by mountains and forests, with no sign of human habitation.

Therefore, he chose it as the place to practice his swordsmanship.

The art of flying swords must be fully displayed in an open area.

Wang Chen's cultivation in the path of the sword could be described as one step at a time.

He started from the basics with the Object-Controlling Technique, followed by the Sword Control Technique, and then became a disciple of Chang Chun, from whom he received the true teachings of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique. Now, he had advanced both techniques and the sword technique to Great Perfection.

He naturally mastered the secret of Thunder Sound Sword Qi!

Although the Thunderbolt Sword Technique could be cultivated from Qi Cultivation all the way to the Purple Mansion Realm, Wang Chen had actually reached the full level of this sword technique without yet breaking through to open his mansion.

There was not much potential for improvement left.

In such a situation, practicing a higher level of swordsmanship had become an inevitable choice for Wang Chen.

When Wang Chen parted ways with Chang Chun, the latter had implanted two clusters of Spirit Light Law Seed into his Sea of Consciousness.

The Four Seasons Sword Technique and the Lovesickness Sword Technique!

Both techniques required the Purple Mansion Realm to cultivate, so Wang Chen had never pondered them before his breakthrough.

Now that he had ascended to the Purple Mansion and had both Root Bone and Comprehension attributes at 7 points.

After settling in White Tiger City, Wang Chen began to study the Four Seasons Sword Technique.

Although he no longer had the guidance of his master Chang Chun beside him, the Spirit Light Law Seed given to him contained all of Golden Core True Person Chang Chun's comprehensions and insights about the Four Seasons Sword Technique.

It was like a treasure trove; as long as Wang Chen dug into it with hard work, he could gain immense rewards!

The Four Seasons Sword Technique corresponded to spring, summer, autumn, and winter, divided into four sets that comprised one technique, with no distinction of high or low, principal or subordinate.

Since it was winter, Wang Chen first practiced the Sword of Winter.

He swung his arm, and the Wind Thunder Sword he held was instantly thrown into the sky.

This second-tier Spirit Sword suddenly trembled, its body flashing with a faint silvery-white brilliance, reflecting the surrounding snowy scenery.

The next moment, the Wind Thunder Sword swiftly flew forward.

A part of Wang Chen's mind was entrusted within the sword, already perfectly merged with the Sword Spirit. With the help of his powerful spiritual power, even if they were ten li apart, he could control it as if it were his own limb.

The Four Seasons Sword Technique had a total of sixteen moves, four for each season, but the technique emphasized momentum and intent over specific moves; mastering the momentum was considered a Great Achievement, while deriving the Sword Intent was the pinnacle.

As a beginner, Wang Chen of course started with the most basic moves, practicing them over and over to sense the natural forces of the world and, from there, comprehend the momentum and intent of the sword.

The Sword of Winter contained the styles of Light Snow, Clear Sky, Heavy Snow, and Ice Seal; even if the sword technique emphasized momentum over specific moves, the ingenuity of the moves was far beyond the straightforward Thunderbolt Sword Technique.

If Wang Chen hadn't just added a point to his Comprehension, allowing this attribute to make a small leap.

He would not have so easily grasped the insights.

The Wind Thunder Sword roared through the air, weaving and shuttling back and forth around him, leaving trails of Sword Light afterimages.

It faintly presented a scene as if snowflakes were fluttering about.

Spiritual Light from the Law Seed in Wang Chen's Sea of Consciousness emitted thousands of rays, with numerous comprehensions emerging.

It was as if someone was whispering the mysteries of this sword technique into his ear.

[Four Seasons · Sword of Winter Experience +1]

[Four Seasons · Sword of Winter (Novice) 0/100]

Just as Wang Chen was engrossed in practicing the sword technique, lost in a state of self-forgetfulness, two pieces of information that suddenly appeared in his vision brought him back to his senses.

Novice, but not completely initiated!

This situation was completely unexpected to Wang Chen, yet also within reason.

It meant he would have to initiate into the other three seasons of spring, summer, and autumn to fully master this sword technique.

Only then would he obtain the true fruits of practicing all four swords together.

Not to mention the difficulty of cultivation, the time needed was incomparable to that of the Thunderbolt Sword Technique.

Compared to the Thunderbolt Sword Technique, the ranking of the Four Seasons Sword Technique is higher by more than one tier!

"I have three swords, one named Thunderbolt, one named Four Seasons, and one named Lovesickness. Which one would you like to learn?"

"The Law Must Not Be Transmitted Lightly: five thousand for Thunderbolt, thirty thousand for Four Seasons, and Lovesickness is priceless!"

In a daze, Wang Chen remembered what Chang Chun had once said.

Only now did he truly understand how generous the price his master had offered him was!

Let alone thirty thousand spirit stones, even a hundred thousand would be considered cheap.

Unfortunately, with the drastic changes in the Cloud Sun Sect, the fate of master and disciple also came to an end.

A sense of melancholy welled up in his heart as Wang Chen suddenly thrust out with a sword finger: "Go!"

Where his fingertip pointed, the flying Wind Thunder Sword suddenly dove down, instantly dropping into a thicket a hundred steps away from Wang Chen.

"Squeak!"

Accompanied by a sharp and piercing scream, a burst of blood mist suddenly exploded.

Wang Chen's figure flickered, and he dashed to where the sword had fallen with a "Shrinking Ground into Inches" maneuver.

In the snow-covered thicket, a snow-white fox lay with the Wind Thunder Sword piercing through its neck, pinning it firmly to the ground.

Crimson blood gushed from the wound, quickly melting the snow beneath it.

There was a distinctive sense of tragic beauty.

But in the eyes of the snow fox lay nothing but grievance and despair, yet when it saw Wang Chen appear before it, it opened its mouth weakly, uttering "ah-ah" sounds.

As if begging pitifully for mercy.

Its eyes also became infinitely soft and pitiable.

Drama queen!

Wang Chen shook his head and reached out to draw the Wind Thunder Sword back into his sleeve.

While he had been practicing his swordsmanship, he had faintly sensed a glimpse of malicious surveillance.

It was at the moment in White Tiger City when he realized the mystery of the Sword of Winter that the other party's malice directly triggered his spiritual perception.

Therefore, Wang Chen resolutely drew his sword.

Strike first to gain the upper hand!

No matter how ten times more pitiful this monster fox was, it wouldn't shake his resolve.

As the Wind Thunder Sword was withdrawn, blood spurted wildly from the wound on the fox's neck. It struggled to rise, but after several attempts, all ended in failure, its breath rapidly fading.

On the brink of death, the monster fox suddenly raised its head and let out a sharp screech at Wang Chen.

"Squeak—"

An invisible force rushed towards Wang Chen.

However, Wang Chen's figure instantly vanished from the spot, reappearing dozens of steps away.

[Human Virtue +79]

He ignored the message that popped up in his field of view and turned his gaze towards the distant mountains, his eyes becoming profoundly grave.

The next moment, Wang Chen cast a flame-engulfed Fire Crow with a raise of his hand.

At the same time, his body shot backward like an arrow released from a bow.

In the blink of an eye, he vanished from sight.

The huge Fire Crow spread its crimson wings, plummeting onto the corpse of the snow fox, and in an instant, reduced it to ashes.

A moment later, a chilling presence abruptly descended!

Subsequently, a ghostly figure appeared in the midst of the mountains, with two long tails swaying behind it.

Sharp howls suddenly erupted!
