Chapter 509 - Selfless Formless Sword

Chapter 509 Selfless Formless Sword

“Imperial Lord, please take a look.” The red-robed Supremacy flipped his hand and produced a book. He handed it to Meng Chuan respectfully.

Meng Chuan flipped open the book.

The book described the 19 Imperial Lord-level techniques in detail. Meng Chuan glanced at them briefly before focusing on the painting catalogue manual’s description.

The Selfless Formless Sword’s creator, Huang Yong, was an Essence Soul Third Tribulation Eminence. He was a mortal master artist who eventually became a cultivator. He used his sword as a brush and created a perfected Imperial Lord-level technique-Selfless Formless Sword.

This sword art was famous for its many variations. It had a total of 33,000 moves. Once it was used, he could be seen everywhere within 15,000 kilometers. It was as though he was in every spot within 15,000 kilometers simultaneously. Simultaneously, he could use the 33,000 sword moves to create a painting. The technique’s might was unimaginable. However, it was extremely difficult to learn it because there were many sword moves-each of them was extremely profound.

Though this was the case, one could ignore all the manual’s sword moves and directly study the five paintings in the manual. If one could comprehend the five paintings, they could also cultivate the sword art to perfection, allowing them to reach the perfected Heaven Earth realm.

Meng Chuan glanced at the sword art’s moves. Meng Chuan was looking forward to seeing what a perfected sword technique had to offer. “That sword art technique is actually a painting?” Meng Chuan pointed at the old book.

The red-robed Supremacy smiled and said, “Imperial Lord, to be honest, instead of calling this Selfless Formless Sword a sword art, it’s actually more like a brush technique! The brush technique is unpredictable, and it’s extremely difficult to master it. However, if one can directly comprehend its essence from the paintings, one’s cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.”

“It’s well painted.” Meng Chuan stared at the old painting catalogue. The surface depicted the first painting. The array formation stopped one from probing it with the consciousness, but he could see it with his naked eye.

Meng Chuan examined the first painting…

Meng Chuan could see through the bones, intent, and soul of the painting at a glance. Each brushstroke looked like they were two different strokes, but in reality, the painter had just varied their brush speed-fast and slow.

The brushstrokes’ speed, heaviness, fluidity, realism, and variability… With a single glance, Meng Chuan split the first painting into thousands of brushstrokes in his heart.

Meng Chuan seemed to see Senior Huang Yong personally painting it live. The first painting was only at the Dharma Domain realm, so Meng Chuan completely comprehended the first painting with just a glance. This Selfless Formless Sword is not from the lightning lineage, but it’s not from the water or fire lineage either. Instead, it’s a brush technique that only uses void laws. Meng Chuan nodded slightly.

Huang Yong had used his brush technique to enter the Dao before focusing on the void lineage. Meng Chuan looked relaxed.

“The painting is pretty good. I’ll buy this manual.” Meng Chuan looked at the red-robed Supremacy. “Name your price.”

“Buy?” The red-robed Supremacy was taken aback.

One just needed to learn a legacy once, yet he wanted to buy it?

“Sister Li, this Imperial Lord wants to buy Selfless Formless Sword’s original copy. He wants to make a bid. This is yours. Hurry up and make a decision.” The red-robed Supremacy secretly sent a voice transmission. The other four Supremacies beside him also noticed this.

“Just learning the legacy once would do. Why does he want to buy the original copy? Wouldn’t that cost more Essence Crystals?”

“It’s a good thing to earn more Essence Crystals. Sister Li, your homeworld should have more than one copy of the Selfless Formless Sword manual, right?”

“That is the only copy,” said the female Supremacy via voice transmission. “Senior Huang Yong isn’t a cultivator from my homeworld. This was originally bought in the outer realm and taken back to my homeworld. It’s said that one can comprehend the technique’s essence by studying the paintings. However, nobody in my homeworld has mastered Selfless Formless Sword, even after millions of years. Therefore, I brought it here.”

“Hurry up and give me a price, but don’t scare this Imperial Lord. After all, he’s an Imperial Lord. Imperial Lord-level techniques are useful to them.”

“I won’t sell it for too low a price. After all, it’s the original copy.”

As the five Supremacies conversed, the cyan-clothed female Supremacy walked over and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Imperial Lord. This Selfless Formless Sword manual belongs to my homeworld. I had no choice but to take it here to sell it. If you want it, you can have it for eight Outer Realm Essence Crystals.”

“Eight Outer Realm Essence Crystals?” Meng Chuan shook his head and smiled. “I can buy two to three Third Tribulation treasures with that price.”

An Outer Realm Essence Crystal could be exchanged for one ordinary Imperial Lord-level treasure.

He had to exchange eight Imperial Lord-level treasures for an Imperial Lord-level technique’s original copy? “After all, it was written by a Tribulation Eminence,” said the female cyan-robed Supremacy.

“Regardless of whose work it is, it’s ultimately an Imperial Lord-level ultimate technique,” said Meng Chuan with a frown. “I can accept the price of five Outer Realm Essence Crystals. It’s fine if you don’t agree.”

He could negotiate the price with the Supremacies as an ‘Imperial Lord.’ He didn’t want to be too long-winded.

The female cyan-clothed Supremacy pondered for a moment. Although one only requires a single Outer Realm Essence Crystal to learn all 19 Imperial Lord-level techniques, only a handful of people are willing to pay the price to learn them during the Treasure Auction. The price this Imperial Lord gave is the typical price for a perfected Imperial Lord-level ultimate technique’s original copy! “Alright, I’ll sell it to you, Imperial Lord,” said the cyan-clothed Supremacy with a smile.

After buying the manual, Meng Chuan returned to his cave abode. He couldn’t help but begin perusing the manual. Meng Chuan became even more excited when he started studying it.

He had picked up a treasure!

Cultivators usually had to be compatible with the ultimate technique if they wanted to learn it! Even if Meng Chuan was given many ultimate techniques, he would feel a headache trying to learn them! If they weren’t compatible with him, he would take a long time to learn them!

In the past, Meng Chuan practiced swift saber techniques. When his cultivation realm had later become high enough, the World Roving Dragon Saber was quite suitable for him. However, Meng Chuan still felt that it wasn’t good enough. He modified it and created the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique, which was more suitable for him.

Beautiful. Meng Chuan had already learned the legacy, but he continued flipping through the book, engrossed with its contents.

His Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique used the world as a canvas, but its core was the lightning lineage’s profundities. The Selfless Formless Sword was a brush technique that also used the world as a canvas. Furthermore, it was purer than Meng Chuan’s self-created technique!

Meng Chuan was rather talented in the lightning lineage. He created the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique with his understanding of the lightning lineage’s profundities.

Huang Yong’s talent in other aspects wasn’t high. He also didn’t follow a specific cultivation system. Instead, he only incorporated the void lineage’s profundities into his brush techniques, making it even purer.

Amazing. The way Huang Yong uses the brush has reached a godly level. The third painting looks like it’s composed of 3,6000 strokes, but the entire painting is actually just a single brushstroke. He utilizes realism. I’m very inferior to him. Meng Chuan stared at the paintings in admiration. After all, as a perfected Imperial Lord-level technique, the Selfless Formless Sword uses realism as one of its cores. Meng Chuan had extremely high attainments in painting. He wasn’t inferior to Huang Yong at all. However, Huang Yong had extremely high attainments in the void lineage. He had fused the void lineage’s profundities into his brush, making it even more magical. Though this was the case, Meng Chuan’s learning process was very smooth. Meng Chuan easily combined the so-called 33,00 sword moves and managed to form paintings. At the very least, Meng Chuan had fully understood the first three paintings.

The fourth painting is at the Heaven Earth realm. Meng Chuan flipped open the page containing the fourth painting and carefully studied it.

Realism and domain?

Meng Chuan continued staring at the fourth painting. He dissected the brushstrokes and comprehended their uniqueness.

It took time to dissect a painting, which was why he bought the painting manual. Just accepting the legacy would provide him fewer benefits than constantly deciphering the profoundness behind every brushstroke in the painting catalogue.

So it wasn’t actually two cores. The Selfless Formless Sword uses domain as its core. Realism and the selfless concept is to realize the domain…

Meng Chuan continued studying the painting and gradually understood the painting’s essence. However, it wasn’t easy to master it completely. The concepts of realism and selfless were both the void lineage’s profundities. These concepts had to be infused into one’s brushstrokes before they could form a domain naturally.

Meng Chuan’s Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique was considered a top-notch Supremacy-level ultimate technique. After it reached the perfected Grotto-Heaven realm, Meng Chuan was very vexed about how he should break through to the Heaven Earth realm.

However, after learning Selfless Formless Sword, Meng Chuan was no longer vexed. He pushed the Cloud Dragon Snake Movement Technique aside and temporarily focused on learning the sword art. His insights into the void lineage rapidly fused with the Selfless Formless Sword, making his attainments in the sword art soar to the perfected Grotto-Heaven realm. He even headed straight for the Heaven Earth realm.

While he was cultivating, the Treasure Auction started.
